The Immortal Has a Guardian Spirit - Denpi

Chapter 5: Messenger of Death (5)

As expected, the sound of something being cut or cut rang out. The monster's scream pierced his eardrums and the strong smell of blood filled him.

However, nothing touched his body. Instead, there is a gentle hand placed on his head and a deep, friendly voice.

"[I'll finish it soon, so hang in there.]"

It's then followed by a series of tag and slaughter.

As if he wouldn't forgive even a single monster, a man with black hair and blue eyes the same color as Raven was scouring around and taking down monsters.

Sometimes, as soon as he went too far, monsters lurking somewhere rushed towards the two seemingly defenseless people, but every time, this unknown man appeared like a ghost, slaughtered them, and then disappeared. Let alone monsters, there wasn't even a drop of blood.

Literally a 'ghost-like' skill.

Dan, who had been watching all of this blankly over Raven's shoulder, woke up belatedly and shaken.

Now is not the time to be distracted.

"...──!"

"Ah."

Raven, who had almost lost him due to his sudden struggle, reflexively wrapped his arms tightly around him, as if oppressing him.

...He guess now he's starting to feel like it's true. He understands that he's scared, but if he go out here alone, he'll die 100 times.

"Calm down."

For someone who wants to live like that, to die right in front of me and no one else?

"Calm down. Are you planning on dying here?"

That is not entirely true.

The cry of a monster rakes down his eardrum violently. His sensitive sense of flight caused irritation at the moment due to his blocked vision, but Raven, who had been using words a few times, quickly closed his mouth because he could not become an ugly adult who was threatening a child.

'...Damned.'

Other measures are needed because the situation will not calm down easily.

For a moment, he thinks about hitting him in the back of the head and knocking him out, but then he decides that it would be wrong to use force on someone who wasn't even an adult.

Of course, it would be comfortable to just close your eyes and faint. However, he can't cross the minimum line he set himself to remain a human being in a situation where he had lived a long life and his dull emotions and dull discernment were destroying humanity.

So what should he do?

'This is why I don't like children.'

Raven smirked and began to comfort the other by hugging him. The surprising thing is that he knew very well what to say to the scared child in this situation.

This is what a young human being who came into the world and met a proper adult and protector for the first time heard from the guardian spirit and then said to his first disciple and other disciples after that.

Filter out negative emotions such as bitterness or irritation, gather only the most gentle and warm emotions, and open his mouth gently. A statement he never thought he would make again came out of my mouth now.

"Shh, it's okay."

You don't have to be anxious.

"Monsters won't be able to reach you."

I will take responsibility for your safety.

"Just close your eyes for a moment. It will be over soon."
