It is impolite for a race of insects to keep me waiting.

　Sbaran, a racial adventurer, had just finished his business and returned to his friends - and there stood a strange young man of the elf species.

　His honey blonde hair was tied back, exposing his jeweled green eyes and pointed ears.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　His face was so well-defined that he could have been mistaken for a woman.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　In a sense, he was a typical young man of the elf kind, standing there with a broad greatsword in his hand.

　Gilbert, a party member with whom I had just had a pleasant conversation, was lying on the ground, his head severed from his torso.

　The young elf stomped on Gilbert's head with his foot, with whom he had shared many years of hardship, and waited for Subaran's arrival.

......ッ."

　The sight of him made me instantly scream out with blood in my head, but Subaran is a veteran adventurer.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　This was not the first time he had seen a fellow adventurer die an unreasonable death.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He was also dealing with an elven species, which was apparently superior to his own.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　With his head still bleeding, he would surely lose his life.

　Sbaran breathes in, letting the cool night air cool his anger.

(Calm down, calm down. ......)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I repeat 'calm down' over and over in my chest and tell myself to calm down.

　He looks at the other members sleeping in the tent, but the large amount of red liquid flowing out of the tent indicates that they are probably dead.

　Subaran seems to be the only survivor.

(...... is surrounded by a shallow swamp. If approached on foot, the sound of the water would surely alert them. Yet Gilbert's head was chopped off with no sign of a struggle. (In all probability, it was caused by witchcraft.)

　He calmly makes a decision, sits back and reaches his right hand to his waist.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(The opponent is a higher-ranked elf species that uses magic ....... If I, as a racial person, fought them head-on, I would surely lose. It's impossible for me to deal with it on my own. I must report this attack and murder of an adventurer to the Adventurers' Guild. Then the adventurers and the guild will form a strike team to kill him, even though he is a member of a discriminated race. If I survive and report his characteristics, race, and information to the guild, I win!　Don't think you can win on your own!)

　Jiri Jiri retreats and distances himself from the blond elf youth.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blond elf youth, Kite, stuck out his tongue in a bored manner.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Ignoring me when I'm talking to you, this is why I don't like humans (inferior species). Can't you at least make a witty joke?

"............"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Why don't you say something?　How pathetic is it to be kicked in the foot by your own people and remain silent, no matter how inferior you are to the most inferior of all species?"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kite kicks Gilbert's severed head.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sbaran, seizing the opportunity, throws from his waist a trump card in case of emergency - a smokescreen ball for escape.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

!　Smoke screen!　You're not going to fight, you're going to run away!　You're a coward, you know that?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

'Keep talking, you f*cking elf!　I'll definitely let you take out your fellow enemies someday!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Sbaran begins his escape in an explosion of white smoke.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

(The scary part is that it is totally unknown what kind of hand the sorcerer has. But they do have their weaknesses!　Without visual capture of the target to be defeated, most offensive magic is meaningless. (Let's get them out of our magic range while we're blindfolded by a smoke screen!)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Above all, Sbaran is a self-appointed scout who has the ear of the party members.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He has also spent years fighting monsters in a three-level swamp. He has it all drilled into his head where to find everything in this vast three-level swamp.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I know all the safe places to hide, the food to eat, the water to drink, and so on.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

（I'm going to get away from those d*mn elves!　And make them pay for killing Gilbert and the others and kicking them in the foot--?)

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I felt a strong push on my back.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　A wide sword grows out from my back to my chest.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I immediately understood that it was the sword blade in the hand of the elven species.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The blade had penetrated halfway through Subaran's body.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　It was a fatal wound.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He looked down at the sword blade, which was stained with his own blood.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Bam, I wonder!　Goho!　With the smoke screen, I couldn't see the exact location, gah, it should have been ......!"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　I spit out a mouthful of iron-smelling blood and scream out a reality I don't understand.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　If this is some kind of offensive magic, it is something of a higher offensive magic that Subaran doesn't even know about.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But it's a sword attack.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　How was he able to pinpoint his exact position through the smoke screen and catch the fleeing backside with all his might?

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He gathered all his strength and looked behind him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　--But there was a scene different from what he had expected. He wondered why he had been ambushed from behind even though he was blindfolded by the smoke screen at the same time.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　The reason why veteran Gilbert was killed unprovoked, despite the fact that the surrounding area was a shallow swamp and he was on alert.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Chi, kusho, ga ...... hanso, dakuro ga no way--"

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Subaran is unable to utter the answer and his consciousness breaks.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Before he could utter the last word, his life drained out of him.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Kite kicked Subaran, who had died, in disgust.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

Subaran is a domestic animal that is only killed to improve my level, and you're making me have to go through all this trouble just because you're an insect. If they were still killed in a quiet way, it would be cute, but they have strange cunning and wisdom, so this kind of human (inferior species) is a nuisance.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　He regains his composure and checks his status.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　But Kite's level had not increased.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

I guess it's still not up. ...... I'll keep up my race-killing until it goes up.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　Then he disappears from the scene without a sound.

Read at https://w w w . m t l r e a d e r.com

　All that remained were the bodies of the slaughtered race of adventurers.
