Chapter 563 The monster hunter that will appear
. There is a reason I said this word.
Even on Earth, those who catch monsters are called hunters. Skilled people in other worlds have their own words for being a knight or a wizard.
how is it here
‘It’s a place where monsters are accepted as everyday. Even here, strangers are called monsters.’
It’s been half a day since I sat quietly at the table and listened to what people were saying. I don’t know if it has any nutritional value, but there are words I’ve been hearing about.
And there were those who were classified separately as monster hunters.
It was like half a scammer.
“The monsters I killed are not one or two.”
I was still on the honest side. Because I really caught things that could be called monsters.
Even if ordinary people show only the by-products of monsters that are hard to see, trust will increase dramatically.
Without hesitation, he took out the by-products obtained from killing a 10th grade monster from the treasure bag. Scales and processed pupils that were pulled out from a monster that looked similar to a snake.
It is so large that even one scale is bigger than the palm of your hand. Not to mention eyeballs.
“Oh oh! It’s the first time I’ve seen anything like this!”
“No, more than that, isn’t that a subspace pocket? There are many cases where there are no people from the guild, but this is a real monster hunter.”
Those who used to gossip each other in their fuss also focus on this side.
Even here, subspace artifacts were precious.
It seems to pull more aggro than intended, but it’s not bad.
“There are more than a hundred of them dead by my hand. Many of them are so bizarre and horrific that it is difficult to describe them in words. Compared to those guys, bloodsucking monsters are ridiculous.”
damn good. Scrape the empty bowl with a fork.
“Excuse me, but I overheard the story earlier. Vampires don’t care. He’s already caught.”
“You mean a vampire!”
“Look! am i right? Vampires really exist!”
“Eyy, but a little bit of a vampire. Isn’t this guy just talking?”
I laughed at the two of them arguing again.
“Vampires do exist. I bet you If you don’t believe me, I won’t bother persuading you, but I’ll let you know this one thing.”
He leaned forward and lowered his voice.
“It is very easy to identify a person who has been attacked by a vampire. If they had seen the body, they would have accepted it without question. because.”
He slowly clasped his palms.
“Really, they suck it up without leaving a single drop of blood. If you see a corpse that is about to crumble, don’t look back and run away. Does that mean he’s still nearby?”
gulp.
I hear swallowing at my words.
Even if it wasn’t for the two of them, it was the same for those around them who were listening.
He crossed his legs and shrugged his shoulders.
“The monster that attacked the beast I mentioned earlier is not a vampire. If they sucked people, they sucked, not animals. They say there are some oddballs, but they leave a mark.”
This is sincere. Considering their thirst for blood, it was normal for animals that were bigger than humans to be skinny.
Of course, there isn’t much of a thing like that. They are classified as monsters, but they also have intelligence. It is also an established theory in the academic world that it has its own culture.
However, apart from what I usually do, when I get hungry, I heard that there is no beast like that.
Yes. I just listened.
‘How come I’ve never met a proper vampire while climbing.’
I did meet a similar guy. Even so, it was a semi-vampire, not Jintung.
A monster that has been bitten and mutated by a vampire that serves as its host. That alone was a dangerous existence, but compared to a real vampire, it was not a class.
Even on Earth, there is not much information about vampires. It’s not that many cases have been found. It is said that most of them were found in a state close to malnutrition.
I stroked my chin.
Maybe we’ll run into each other on the 90th floor. I saw the giant for the first time after coming up. There’s no law saying that even a vampire shouldn’t do that.
This is the story afterward.
“From my point of view, it was the Chupacabra that attacked your livestock. I’ll take a look for myself if you want.”
“Oh oh! Thank you for saying that. They say I’m a mapader.”
“It’s Evil Eye.”
They shook hands casually and stood up from their seats. It’s time to find out what’s out there.
This is the village you must pass through to enter Bant Castle. It was also said that the fact that monsters roamed around such a place could well cause something similar to Bant Castle.
‘It has no body organs to suck blood, but it is a powerful monster that can make a large amount of blood come out.’
As a bonus, he has the ability to squeeze blood from his body.
It seems to have the power to stop the bleeding from the wound.
In terms of skills, it’s like a major bleeding or a wound that won’t heal.
I quietly put my hand on the cut edge of the wound.
big. Looking at the area of the torn wound, I wonder if my fingernails are almost the size of my palm.
It’s ambiguous to say that it’s a large species, and it seems to fit roughly if it’s a medium-sized species, but this part is a problem.
‘I don’t think they’d have been caught at this size?’
Although this is a village before entering Bant Castle, it is quite large.
Outside of the village, I don’t know, but the inside is made up of its own composition.
Of course, the map father’s ranch is connected to the outside, but it is also closely connected to the village. If it does appear, it is normal to have witnesses, whether it be vigilantes or those who have not been able to sleep at night.
Even this was not the only ranch that was damaged.
“Securet over there with a hacienda was also damaged, so maybe he knows the details.”
A similar thing happened in a place larger than here, he said.
After hearing the details, it turns out that there are not only a few shepherds there, but there are also guards who professionally guard livestock.
In other words, the Chupacabra that appeared here only appeared when there were no people like ghosts.
This is so strange.
how to say
‘It seems like I can tell when no one is around.’
It’s fun.
I raised my eyebrows.
“Didn’t you say that there is a cycle in which the Chupacabra commits crimes?”
“uh. I’m not sure, but it was once a week.”
It was said that the period of time that one could endure without sucking blood was about a week. And it was here about six days ago that the last crime took place.
then.
“I’m going to need some help with this.”
I think I can sell a suitable trap.
* * *
Two days have passed.
In the meantime, I wandered around the ranch nestled in the village.
It wasn’t that I was walking around. I just walked around lightly, like taking a walk. Although the purpose was clear.
‘Fortunately, it’s fortunate that I have things that can make money.’
I stayed in the village for two days and exchanged valuable metals and rare medicines for money.
It was a necessary process because he had to spend money even after entering the Bant castle. I didn’t change it enough to spread rumors excessively, but the money that came into my hands was quite a bit, and I made a deal with the ranch owners.
‘Do not release livestock to the ranch under the pretext of the appearance of the Chupacabra.’
It doesn’t matter if the animals are kept in pens for days. Even in our world right now, there are many cases where they are locked up and raised like factories rather than released in the meadow.
Of course, it costs that much feed, but I paid more than that. I was told to keep it in a cage for just four days.
A week has passed. It is said that the time has come for the Chupacabra to appear, unable to bear the hunger.
I thought about it from the moment I heard the explanation about him.
“He’s not an out-of-the-way beast.”
When looking at the wounds of dead livestock, it has the power to rip and kill quite a few beasts.
Why would such a bastard raid livestock?
‘It must be that the environment is difficult to catch wild animals.’
Yes. I thought he wasn’t a monster living in the wild.
I think that’s the reason why I can avoid people’s eyes and appear.
Hiding among the straw, he focused on his five senses.
A dark night when the sun goes down.
The guy will show up. It doesn’t matter if you don’t reveal it. The culprit will be there. Either way is a good outcome.
I quietly waited for time to pass.

His eyes lit up at the sound of someone’s presence within a rustle.
