Chapter 585: Original (2)
Long ago in the past.
It’s a matter of time now long enough that it’s no longer unreasonable to speak of it as such, yet the memories remain vivid.
The first time I opened my eyes in the body of a Barbarian and stepped into the first floor’s crack — the Blood-Red Fortress.
There, I met Raven and Hikurod.
The desperate battle against Cambermier, the Vampire Duke, a Grade 5 monster and guardian of that crack, even though I had no essence left in my body...
Of course, I still remember the conversation we had then.
“Myoha-gun, truly mysterious...”
Even back then, that guy said something similar while looking at us.
Well, the lines that followed were quite different, though.
“When I look at you, murderous intent boils up and I simply cannot contain it. Do you know why?”
He possessed intelligence and could speak.
That was no strange thing.
