Monster Girl Contract Manual

Chapter 51 Huge Success

The battle ended quickly.

Fortunately, no terrifying goblin warriors appeared this time.

House did not make a move.

As everyone was packing up their spoils, Ian suggested that the Yuri brothers and House explore the interior of the lair together.

He stayed outside to count the spoils of war.

"Don't worry, we will distribute it fairly."

As if afraid that House might have some concerns, he added a sentence, but his gaze intentionally or unintentionally fell on the Yuri brothers.

"Even a fool could see that this guy is worried Yuri and his companion will steal his money."

House stood there with a smile on his face, not moving.

"Why don't you go with Yuri and the others, Ian? I'll do the hard work of collecting the loot, since I didn't really put in much effort."

Seeing the harmless smile on House's face, the younger brother Yurik nodded and was about to walk into the cave, but was stopped by his older brother Julian.

"You noticed?"

Yuri stared quietly at House.

House's feigned harmless smile slowly faded, turning into a deep sigh.

"To be honest, I only just realized it myself."

During their journey, the younger brother, Yurik, made no attempt to hide the greed in his eyes, his gaze frequently fixed on House's money bag and the fine steel longsword.

Ian would occasionally turn back to look at House, as if afraid he would leave.

In addition, House had previously sensed that something was off about the two brothers, and they were subtly trying to find out more about him.

Also, when escorting the caravan, the Yuri brothers and Ian pretended to be distant from each other, as if they were meeting for the first time.

During this mission, the three of them talked incessantly, acting as if they were already very familiar with each other, and their teamwork during the battle was also incredibly seamless...

There are too many things that don't seem right.

If you still can't figure it out yourself, then you're no different from an idiot!

House slowly scanned the three of them.

At this moment, the three men had subtly changed their positions, forming a subtle encirclement that trapped him in the middle.

The three men looked at House with cold, greedy eyes, as if they were sizing up prey that had fallen into a trap and was about to be slaughtered.

House looked at Ian calmly, with a hint of inquiry and doubt, and slowly began to speak:

"I'm curious, why did you choose me instead of that pastor who paid more?"

Upon hearing House's words, Ian, the most talkative of the three, immediately blurted out:

"The other party is a clergyman, it's not a good idea..."

Flame Missile!

The moment Ian opened his mouth, House, who had already gathered his magic power, immediately fired a fire missile at him.

Unfortunately, the opponent seemed to be prepared, and with a wave of his hand, he fired a magic arrow that neutralized House's fireball.

Battle is imminent.

The younger brother, Yurik, who could no longer contain himself, immediately shouted and charged at House with his shield raised.

If House were the other party, he would probably choose to shut up, silently approach, and then launch a sneak attack!

Instead of yelling and shouting like he does.

He was diagnosed as an idiot.

【Wind Sweeps By】

With double the speed, House narrowly avoided Ian's second ordinary arrow.

He then turned sideways, drew his sword, and charged towards Ian.

In combat, kill the healers first; if there are healers, kill them; if there are no healers, target ranged units.

Not far away, in the eyes of the Yuri brothers, House, a mage, suddenly unleashed an incredible speed that seemed to surpass even their own, rapidly closing in on Ian.

This bizarre scene left the two brothers momentarily bewildered.

Julian, the older brother, was the first to react, his expression changing drastically, his eyes filled with deep seriousness.

Ulric, the younger brother, rushed towards House first.

House had already arrived in front of Ian.

Seeing Ian's terrified expression as he hurriedly drew his bow, only to be harassed by the swooping Harpy from above, and realizing it was too late, he could only hold the wooden bow horizontally in front of him in an attempt to defend himself.

Without hesitation, House unleashed [Slash], bypassing the longbow and cleaving Ian in two.

Just like when he was killing goblins, the blood Ian sprayed was also thick and warm.

However, unlike goblins, human blood is much cleaner and does not have the pungent odor of putrid stench and filth that goblins possess.

For some reason, House felt no disgust or aversion at this moment.

Instead, he felt a strange sensation:

"Handling thieves is actually more comfortable than hunting goblins; at least their blood doesn't smell bad."

Of course, if possible, House would prefer to stand at a distance, cleanly and comfortably eliminating his enemies without getting a drop of blood on him.

A fleeting thought crossed my mind.

House, whose magic power was still around 30%, immediately turned his body and swung a [slash] behind him again.

The steel longsword, worth five gold coins, used its remaining momentum and violent slashing force to descend with a sharp edge, easily cleaving in half the crude, cheap oak shield in Yurik's hand.

Wood chips shattered and flew everywhere, debris scattered in all directions, and the sword tip reached a hair's breadth.

As Yurik's gaze shifted from initial astonishment to fear and relief, and then to relaxation, House released the longsword embedded in the shield, crouched low, and nimbly circled around to Yurik's side.

He raised his hand and drew a poisoned dagger from his waist. Taking advantage of the moment when the other was off guard, the dagger flashed and plunged into Yurik's exposed neck.

One of Garp's special training rules is as follows:

When the enemy is fully armed, that is also when they are most relaxed.

Despite having a shield in hand and protective gear on their body, their minds have long been paralyzed by fixed thinking, and their weaknesses are everywhere.

Yurik looked at House with renewed astonishment and fear. He tried to raise his hand tremblingly, but the wound on his neck kept oozing cold air, and all his strength was being rapidly drained away.

Having landed a successful blow, House simply released his grip on the dagger, just as he had done with his longsword earlier.

Because another chilling killing intent emanated from his side.

With the added speed of double speed, House easily and smoothly dodged the opponent's powerful slash.

House didn't stop, retreating several times to quickly distance himself from the remaining Julian.

"younger brother!!!"

Julian's heart-wrenching screams rang out.

In the distance, House, expressionless, lightly shook his hand, which had gone numb from the force of his strike on the shield.

The heart pumped violently due to the intense exercise in a short period of time, causing blood to rush to the head. In addition, the magic power in the body was almost gone, making the head feel slightly dizzy.

Fortunately, he succeeded in attacking twice in a row, and with his skills and agility, he managed to dodge the fatal blow. The exhilaration of winning one after another kept washing over his mind, which suppressed his previous fatigue and dizziness.

House wiped the cold sweat from his forehead, his eyes calm and clear as he quietly locked onto Julian, who stood alone ahead, his body filled with grief, anger, and murderous intent.

Above the two, Harpy hid in the shade of the leaves, ready to launch another attack at any moment.
