So I'm a Snake, Who Cares

I retched again at the smell getting closer with him.

Fortunately, Zhanil passed by me and ran towards the Dancer.

I worried for a moment that he might try to steal the finishing blow, but thankfully no such deplorable thing happened.

Instead, he threw many paralysis poison-coated daggers, then threw a net.

The Dancer, struggling until the end, was finally subdued like that.

"Heave-ho!"

Zhanil grabbed the net and slowly pulled the Dancer in.

Well, I had emphasized it so much.

That finishing it off was my job.

Zhanil approached this way with a grin.

Don't come closer, you smell too much.

I stopped Zhanil in front.

'Good work.'

"Hehe. It was nothing."

He patted his back as if it was sore.

Meanwhile, I carefully tried to remove Sunset stuck in the Dancer's body using Invisible Hand.

"By the way, I always suffer like this whenever I come to the mountains... Shouldn't have messed with the wyverns again."

At Zhanil's words, I froze.

'Messed with the wyverns?'

I wrote to ask in the notebook.

Zhanil's expression became strange.

An expression of uncertainty whether he should answer or not.

Just tell me casually, since I'm a snake, not a person.

"Come to think of it, snake, you were also fighting with wyverns."

Fighting with wyverns?

Well, to the humans watching from afar, it must have looked that way.

Surely they couldn't have guessed that I was mistaken for a child by two Wyvern Queens.

"I was carrying out a mission from the Empire."

Zhanil didn't explain in detail.

But there were two important points.

"I helped adventurers steal Celeta's egg, but I'm not sure if those bastards escaped properly. Pathetic fellows..."

First, Zhanil was involved in stealing Wyvern Mom's egg.

And second...

"It wasn't like this in my time. Back then, I succeeded in stealing a Wyvern Queen named Chugota's child."

Zhanil had a proud expression.

"Three other companions died, but I managed to transport it all the way to the Imperial Capital."

It was truly surprising.

Honestly, I didn't feel like shouting 'So it was you!'...

'It was because of you?'

It was surprising.

Right in front of me was the human who had greatly influenced those two powerful named monsters, Celeta and Chugota.

Yet those two wyverns would have no idea about this fact.

But it seems I wasn't the only one surprised.

The Dancer, lying limp as if dead, must have heard the story too.

It was so surprised that it suddenly stood up and flapped its legs.

Who could have known bright red cartilage would shoot out from its hip joint?

Puk!

That sharp bone spike pierced through Zhanil's chest.

Was today Talk Like a Pirate Day?

"Erk..."

Zhanil Fezhe suddenly went "Arrr...!"

That was his last words. It had to be his last words since his heart was burst.

"Jurerererek!" Stay tuned for updates on

More bright red cartilage legs sprouted between the Dancer's broken or burned legs.

This brought the total number of legs to eight.

Just like a spider.

So that's why it had the 'Spider' trait.

With its newly grown legs, it started running wildly.

"Catch it!"

I was planning to anyway.

I should have predicted it was my nemesis when I saw its traits.

"Jurererek!"

"Sauuk!"

We ran together while holding back our nausea.

Just running was impressive enough, considering it already had sword wounds and several poisoned daggers stuck in it.

It kept running while dripping blood profusely.

It crashed down the stairs and reached the horizontal corridor.

Pelerian gritted his teeth.

"Over there...!"

Someone was standing at the other end of that corridor.

It looked like a person, but wasn't human.

What stood there was definitely a chimera.

The most elf-like Chimera No. 9, wasn't its name 'Unnamed'?

It stood there looking this way with an unreadable expression.

Whether the Dancer knew this or not, it kept running.

'Could it be teaming up because they're both chimeras?'

I did imagine that for a moment.

But it seemed that wasn't the case.

I don't know how it did it.

It was a movement my eyes couldn't catch.

The Dancer, though injured, was still plenty fast and strong.

Chimera No. 9 caught it in an instant.

It gripped the Dancer's neck and looked this way.

And what happened next was unexpected.

"...Failed creation."

Chimera No. 9 spoke.

Though awkward, it was definitely proper words.

Moreover, in the fairy language.

Hearing that, Pelerian became enraged.

"You bastaaaaard!"

And I too became enraged.

Because it applied force with its hand.

Crack!

The Dancer's body went limp.

"That thing!"

'Trying to steal the finishing blow!'

Unnamed.

I won't forgive you.

「Using Black Scales lv3」

「Using Acceleration lv7」

「Using Heart-eating Leap lv4」

I shot forth like a streak of black lightning.

It wasn't for revenge over stolen magic power.

I wasn't fond of closing the barn door after the horse has bolted.

「Using Slash lv5」

What I cut was the Dancer's broken neck.

Slash!

I completely severed it, and its dying body fell to the ground.

In other words, I'm the one who dealt the finishing blow.

「You have killed 'Test Flesh No.8 Dancer lv90'」

Magic power rushed in.

As expected of something so strong.

The Dancer gave noticeably more experience than previous chimeras.

「Your level has increased」

Thanks to that, my level also increased, so my mood was special.

「Evolution is now possible」

I want to quickly confirm my new possibilities.

Of course, for that.

I'll need to deal with this monster in front of me first.

"Failed, creation."

Who are you calling that, you monster that looks like fish and elf mixed together with clay!

When it squeezed its hand, the Dancer's head burst with a pop.

The scattered blood chunks were like pomegranate seeds.

I quickly retreated to create distance.

First, I should size up my opponent, shouldn't I?

'...Huk!'

I was shocked.

It was so strong that its level wasn't even visible.

And it had a different name than 'Unnamed'.

[Test Flesh No.9 Failed Creation lv???]

Failed Creation.

Pelerian must have kept calling him that.

"Failed..."

The chimera, unfairly born resembling an elf, showed hatred toward me.

"Pele...rian-!"

From its approach toward me.

Until it kicked my body.

That process wasn't visible at all.

Teong!

This one was certainly the world's strongest failed creation.
