Volume 3 Chapter 58 Epilogue: Sharpening Claws in the World of Darkness
"In this world, people's lives are surprisingly light, right?"
A suspicious boy wearing a hood mutters this.
In a dark, gloomy room somewhere underground, without any windows, only the flickering candlelight quietly illuminates their figures.
"In the world we were in before, if you kill one person, it quickly gets found out and becomes a big disaster, but in this world, it's totally different."
"──That's just because the boss and we are doing it well, isn't it?"
"Maybe that's true."
The one answering the boy's question is a big, blonde man.
The large man scratches his head a bit, looking somewhat puzzled at the boy's casual response.
"But there are limits, you know. In fact, gathering *these things* was relatively hard."
Saying this, the man──Reincarnator Asamine Shigi──points with his chin around the room.
In this basement, there were countless silhouettes besides them.
──Silhouettes that were not actually human.
Those hanging from the ceiling by ropes were human corpses.
There was an old man, a girl, a young man, and even a young woman.
It was as if a whole family was there.
"To prepare for *this thing*, Shigi needs to gather a lot in advance."
The boy, Dragon King, said this with a smile, without any bad intentions, and Shigi felt a bit of disgust.
Although he had no ill will and was acting with Shigi's best interests in mind, Shigi swallowed that slight feeling of disgust.
In reality, he wanted as much physical stock as possible.
Shigi rolled up the sleeves of his jacket, exposing his right arm from the elbow down.
"Well, I'll gratefully enjoy it."
The next moment, his right arm showed a strange pulse and──changed.
The arm itself transformed into the head of a massive crocodile, biting into the hanging corpses.
"You eat quite wildly, huh?"
"Well, given the quantity."
The Dragon King looked on with great interest at that strange sight of eating.
"By the way, is it delicious?"
"No way it's delicious."
For Shigi, eating humans was as natural as breathing.
He eats because he needs to.
His feelings have nothing to do with it.
No matter what he truly thinks about this act.
"Oh, right."
The Dragon King clapped his hands, seeming to remember something, and casually spoke to Shigi.
"It seems like my *little pig friends* will make their appearance in that town, so why not go check it out?"
"Ah, it's the ones we got from the Eltor territory, right?"
The Dragon King smiled and shook his head happily.
Glancing at his innocent expression, Shigi placed his left hand on his chin and thought for a moment.
"No, I'll pass because I have work to do."
After finishing his supply task, he brought his right arm back and held that hand up to his face.
As he waved his hand down gently, Shigi's face changed to look like that of an older gentleman.
"Well then, do your best, lord representative."
"Yeah, yeah."
Changing his body shape to match his face, Shigi left the basement.
──Asamine Shigi, along with the Dragon King and other experienced reincarnators. The day they will fight against the Purge Knights is already close.
