In particular, Oswald was in a position where he had to return to his original world home. He could not die here by rushing in without thinking.

If it was a game, he would rush in, find out the opponent’s power, and then avoid it or fight by loading the saved game. . . But this world was a real world that was like a game but not a game. Save? There was no such thing, so it meant that you had to be careful about everything.

“I’m not here to catch you today.”

“Oh? Compromise?”

“It’s uncomfortable to fight in a place where the attention is focused.”

“That’s unusual. Ordinary demon hunters don’t even care. . . . . . . Are you weak?”

He was hurt by those words. . . But Oswald maintained an expressionless face and spoke, subtly raising his vitality.

“Do I look weak?”

“Hmm. . . . . . . I don’t know. . . . . . . “

‘𝘉𝘶𝘵. . . 𝘐𝘵 𝘥𝘰𝘦𝘴𝘯’𝘵 𝘴𝘦𝘦𝘮 𝘵𝘰 𝘣𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘰𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯 𝘰𝘧 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘨𝘶𝘦. . . . . . . .’

If it were the Demon of Plague, it would have no choice but to show itself, even if it hid its appearance. For example, the people around suddenly catch a cold and cough, or a fly gets caught.

“Anyway, if we don’t have to fight, it’s just going to be tiring for each other. Let’s just part ways.”

With that, the Chaos Daemon entered the crowd with his group.

‘𝘉𝘺 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘸𝘢𝘺, 𝘩𝘦’𝘴 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘩𝘢𝘯𝘥𝘴𝘰𝘮𝘦. . . . . . . 𝘈𝘩!’

Only then did he realize what kind of chaos demon it was.

‘𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢 𝘴𝘦𝘥𝘶𝘤𝘵𝘪𝘰𝘯 𝘤𝘩𝘢𝘰𝘴 𝘥𝘦𝘮𝘰𝘯.’

chaos demons who worshiped the evil god Rust, the god of allure, were also beautiful in the form of demons. Their magic power was fascinating, and just being near them made people feel good.

Of course, if you have demonic power and an aura of the opposite, you will not be affected. . . Considering that vitality is not a power that anyone can have, it can be said that it is a very useful ability.

‘𝘉𝘶𝘵. . . . . . . .’

His eyes were on the chaos demon for a moment. . . But Oswald, who remembered his original purpose, began to move again.

Thanks to what he had learned through numerous games, he was well aware of the slave market. It meant that he could tell where to go and what would appear.

After walking around the market for a long time, he arrived at a shop that sold children. Children of various races and even children captured from the eastern part of the continent. . . It was a shop where you could find all kinds of children by type and age.

This was the slave shop that Earl Penicillin often visited.

‘𝘈𝘯𝘥 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘪𝘴 𝘯𝘰 𝘳𝘦𝘤𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘌𝘢𝘳𝘭 𝘗𝘦𝘯𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘭𝘭𝘪𝘯 𝘪𝘯 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘴𝘩𝘰𝘱 𝘰𝘸𝘯𝘦𝘳’𝘴 𝘭𝘦𝘥𝘨𝘦𝘳.’

The shopkeeper showed his thoroughness by even storing the transaction scene in a video ball. Just in case this place was cleaned up, he had secured a very strong string. Even in that video and ledger, there was someone more powerful than Earl Penicillin. Right. . . . . . .

‘𝘐𝘴𝘳𝘢𝘯, 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘚𝘸𝘰𝘳𝘥 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘌𝘮𝘱𝘪𝘳𝘦, 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘪𝘷𝘦 𝘥𝘶𝘬𝘦𝘴.’

Isran, the head of the Duke of Stendar family and also a duke of the empire, was a platinum-level powerhouse who had reached the realm of the Sword Master. If he had more time, he would become a Grand Master and reach the diamond-class.

In other words, it meant that the difficulty level would increase the later it was discovered.

‘𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘢𝘭𝘴𝘰 𝘢 𝘸𝘢𝘺 𝘵𝘰 𝘴𝘦𝘯𝘥 𝘰𝘯𝘦 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘭𝘭𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳𝘴 𝘰𝘧 𝘵𝘩𝘢𝘵 𝘢𝘯𝘯𝘰𝘺𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘳𝘦𝘨𝘳𝘦𝘴𝘴𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘰 𝘩𝘦𝘭𝘭.’

It was a method he had learned when he played as Villain Oswald to isolate the regressor and eliminate those around him one by one.

“Is there anything you’re looking for?”

“I’ll look around for a bit.”

“Yes, please feel free to look around.”

Watching the guy disappear for a moment, Oswald began to act. He hid in a suitable place and put on the Plague Grimoire.

【𝙃𝙤𝙤-𝙤𝙤𝙥. 𝙎𝙬𝙤𝙤𝙨𝙝. 𝙃𝙤𝙤-𝙤𝙤𝙥. 𝙎𝙬𝙤𝙤𝙨𝙝. 𝙊𝙪𝙘𝙝. . . . . . . 】Sucking in the plague while breathing brought on terrible pain. . . But now he was used to the pain and could endure it without screaming. The problem was that he was barely controlling the vitality that was moving in his body and trying to move.

‘𝘐 𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘭𝘭𝘺 𝘤𝘢𝘯’𝘵 𝘥𝘰 𝘢𝘯𝘺𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘯𝘨. 𝘔𝘰𝘳𝘦𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘳, 𝘮𝘺 𝘩𝘰𝘭𝘺 𝘱𝘰𝘸𝘦𝘳 𝘪𝘴 𝘨𝘰𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘤𝘳𝘢𝘻𝘺. . . . . . . .’

He immediately took out the Winchester V10 from his magic pouch. Although it had less capacity than the magic backpack, it was large enough to hold one Winchester.

‘𝘉𝘶𝘵. . . 𝘐𝘵’𝘴 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘥𝘪𝘣𝘭𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘷𝘪𝘨𝘰𝘳𝘢𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘨?’

[𝐎𝐬𝐰𝐚𝐥𝐝 𝐖𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐡𝐞𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫]

[𝟏𝟖 𝐲𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐨𝐥𝐝]

[𝐒𝐭𝐫𝐞𝐧𝐠𝐭𝐡 𝐋𝐯.𝟒𝟎+𝟐𝟎]

[𝐀𝐠𝐢𝐥𝐢𝐭𝐲 𝐋𝐯.𝟒𝟎+𝟐𝟎]

[𝐄𝐧𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐋𝐯.𝟒𝟎+𝟐𝟎]

The physical stats of strength, agility, and endurance were 60. It meant that he had already become a being that surpassed a superhuman. . . . . . . He was as strong as a Sword Master, except that he had no magic power.

‘𝘐𝘧 𝘐 𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘺 𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘵𝘰𝘰 𝘭𝘰𝘯𝘨. . . 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘶𝘴𝘦𝘭𝘦𝘴𝘴 𝘥𝘢𝘮𝘢𝘨𝘦 𝘸𝘪𝘭𝘭 𝘰𝘯𝘭𝘺 𝘪𝘯𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘦.’

The Plague Grimoire, which spread the plague around, had to move as quickly as possible to seize the ledger and videos and retreat to the sewer.

Bang!

Oswald kicked the floor and rushed forward as if he was being shot. If he had only had high strength, he would not have been able to avoid the obstacle that was right in front of him. . . But with his agility also increased, he twisted his body at that very moment and rushed out, avoiding the obstacle.

Oswald soon reached the depths of the store. The guards, who sensed something strange, were on alert. . . But their movements were not fast enough to stop him, who was invisible.

Oswald quickly subdued the two guards with a club. Soon, the plague factor spread to them, and they, who were breathing while unconscious, soon wriggled a few times, developed blisters all over their bodies, and vomited blood.

【𝙒𝙝𝙚𝙧𝙚 𝙬𝙖𝙨 𝙞𝙩. . . . . . . 】

There was a safe hidden somewhere on the floor. After searching for a long time, Oswald, who was getting impatient, simply punched the floor, and soon the floor was smashed and fragments flew everywhere. The noise caused a commotion outside, but Oswald just focused on his task.

【𝙁𝙤𝙪𝙣𝙙 𝙞𝙩. 】

The safe, made of solid steel, could be opened using a dial. However, there was not enough time. . . Oswald used a primitive and primal method.

It was a fist. He used all his strength to hammer his fist on the safe from top to bottom as if hammering it with a hammer.

Clang!

The safe, which had cracked and crumpled with a loud noise, he put his two hands into the gap of the safe and spread it wide open.

Inside the safe were dozens of magic pouches and a thick book that looked like a ledger. Oswald immediately opened his magic pouch and swept everything inside into it.
