Chapter 1

Episode 10: The Truth

The other three also wore grim expressions.

The blue-haired man spoke.

“It’s true. That’s Derek’s item bag.”

“Hey… maybe that’s…”

The blue-haired woman voiced her suspicion.

As if to speak on her behalf, the red-haired man turned to me and asked,

“You… did you steal it?!”

His tone was almost a shout.

I considered lying.

It would probably be best to keep the fact that I had killed the Hero, Derek, a secret.

However…

I also felt like it wouldn’t matter even if they found out.

So, I decided to be honest.

“I didn’t steal it. It’s a war trophy.”

“A war trophy?”

“Yeah. I met Derek at the deepest part of the mountain. He tried to kill me. So, I turned the tables on him and took this item bag.”

I revealed everything truthfully.

And then 

The four of them burst into laughter.

“Ahahahahahaha!!”

They clutched their stomachs, laughing hysterically.

It was a mocking, derisive laughter.

The red-haired woman spoke.

“You killed Derek? No way hahahaha!”

The red-haired man added,

“Are you an idiot?! You don’t even have any magic power! A weakling like you could never beat Derek!”

…I see.

They simply couldn’t believe I had killed Derek.

That’s not surprising.

Without psychokinesis, I would have lost to Derek without a doubt.

Even with psychokinesis, my magic reserves were still low.

It was only natural that they wouldn’t believe me.

But…

The truth is the truth.

“It’s not a lie. I really did kill Derek.”

I declared once again.

Episode 11: Declaration

The red-haired man spoke while laughing.

“Hahahahaha! I see, I see! So, you’re the one who killed Derek? Now I understand completely – you’re just a filthy liar!”

The red-haired man stopped laughing and continued speaking.

“As I thought, you’re trash.. Derek framed you for a crime, you killed Derek in return.. What a load of lies. No wonder you got exiled, your character is rotten to the core. I’ll train you a little. If I beat you to a pulp, maybe that’ll fix that rotten attitude of yours.”

Then, the blue-haired woman coldly declared:

“Why don’t we just kill him? It’s a fact that he stole Derek’s item bag, isn’t it? There’s no reason to let this trash live.”

I didn’t steal it, it was loot.

…But they wouldn’t believe me anyway.

I gave up on explaining.

Instead, I simply stated:

“Relax. I’m not weak enough to lose to the likes of you.”

The red-haired man narrowed his eyes.

With an intimidating and harsh expression, he stepped forward.

“You bastrad, do you think you’re above us…?”

He stopped right in front of me.

Then

“Don’t get cocky, you little shit!!”

He shouted and swung his fist.

If that hit directly, I might have suffered serious injuries.

However

I used psychokinesis to weaken the punch’s force.

And I caught it gently.

“Wh-what…!!?”

The red-haired man was stunned.

The other three, who had been grinning, widened their eyes.

The red-haired man shouted in disbelief:

“You caught it?! What the hell did you just do?!”

“I didn’t do anything special. More importantly”

I paused, then declared:

“I’ll take that attack as a declaration of war. From now on, I will massacre you all.”

He declared.

Episode 12: Wrath

The red-haired man scowled, at my words,

“Massacre… you say?”

The red-haired man continued.

“Don’t get cocky just because you stopped a light punch! You really think nobody like you can kill us?!”

“Of course.”

I answered immediately.

Then, I added:

“The possibility of my defeat is less than one in a million…Well, you’ll understand once if you actually try it.”

The red-haired man’s veins suddenly began to bulge.

He grabbed the battle axe strapped to his back with both hands.

Exuding killing intent, he spoke.

“Very well… then I’ll cut you to death with my battle axe. You’ll regret this soon enough.”

To his words, I simply replied:

“Enough talk. Hurry up and come at me.”

“…!!”

The red-haired man’s veins burst.

He raised his battle axe.

“Raaaaahhh!!!”

With a fierce gust of wind, the battle axe came crashing down toward my head.

I raised my hand toward the axe and activated psychokinesis.

Then the battle axe came to a sudden halt in midair.

“Wh..what!?”

The red-haired man’s eyes widened.

“Hmmmph”..  I snorted and said:

“What’s wrong? Your prized axe has stopped. Weren’t you going to bring it down?”

“You… you bastard…!!”

The man’s face twisted in rage, his bloodshot eyes glaring at me.

He tensed his muscles to try and move the battle axe somehow, but….

The axe, restrained by psychokinesis, did not budge.

“Ugh… ggh… damn it! Why won’t it move?!”

The red-haired man grounded his teeth in frustration.
