My Yandere Girlfriend Hiding in the Dungeon Kills Me Over and Over Again

Chapter 20 Well, but it’s okay…

“Ah…”

Once again, time rewound.

“What the…?”

Why do I have to be killed so many times?

Judite, the vampire. That’s the name of the entity that killed me.

Come to think of it, Agetha mentioned that the hidden chamber in the dungeon was made by a vampire.

“Damn it.”

Uttering these words, I stepped onto the third teleportation circle.

This time, I hope there’s nothing waiting for me.

At the destination of the third teleportation circle, just like before, there was a straight path extending.

So, I followed it.

Then, a single sword was thrust into the ground.

But it wasn’t just any sword.

The blade was black, and the ornamentation was quite luxurious.

“What’s with this sword…?”

I wondered while observing it.

To be honest, the current situation of not having any weapons is quite distressing. If it’s okay to use it, I’d be grateful, but with it placed so conspicuously, it feels like a trap.

“Well, I guess it’s okay to try using it,” I thought casually as I gripped the hilt.

“Agh…!”

The moment I grasped it, an intense pain surged through my entire body.

Ever since I entered the dungeon, it’s been nothing but this.

“Ugh… Why do I have to go through this kind of thing all the time!”

In an attempt to distract from the intense pain, I uttered these words.

The excruciating pain lasted for about several minutes.

As I continued to endure it, I gradually lost consciousness.

“Ahh!”

I woke up.

I realized I was lying on the ground.

Looking around, I noticed I was in the place where the black sword had been leaning. It seemed I had only lost consciousness and hadn’t actually died.

“I’ve had quite a rough time,” I muttered as I tried to get up.

My body felt unusually heavy.

“Eh?”

My right arm was behaving strangely.

It’s hard to describe, but it had transformed into an unrecognizable shape. It would be more accurate to say that my right arm had fused with the black sword.

As my right arm neared the tip, it transformed into a black, hard substance and became sharper. Additionally, the length of my arm had become unusually long.

“This is incredibly heavy,” I realized when I attempted to move my right arm.

I couldn’t even swing my arm properly like this.

“Damn, do I have no choice but to continue like this?” I thought and moved forward.

Since I couldn’t raise the black right arm properly, I dragged it along the ground.

As I continued, I encountered a monster.

“Grr…!”

The monster stared at me warily.

It was an A-rank difficulty monster, a werewolf, a two-legged wolf-like creature with massive claws.

“Seriously… How am I supposed to fight in this situation?”

My right arm was too heavy, and I couldn’t even run away properly.

Am I going to die again? I had almost resigned myself to it because there was no way I could win, no matter how I looked at it.

“Eh…?”

For a moment, I didn’t understand what had happened.

My right arm had started moving on its own. And the sword’s tip was facing towards the werewolf.

“Huh?”

My right arm, now turned into a sword, forcefully pulled forward. As a result, I was dragged along with it.

With a swish, the black sword had cut through the werewolf.

“What is this…?”

I didn’t understand. It was as if the sword itself had moved independently, as if it had its own will.

“Well, but it’s okay…”

I thought that as long as I could escape the dungeon, I was fine with any means, even if it involved this eerie and ominous sword.

Chapter 21 Erosion

The black sword that had parasitized my right arm moved on its own, cutting down one monster after another, regardless of my intentions.

I had no idea about the true nature of this sword, but thanks to it, I could survive. For now, I had no choice but to rely on this sword.

I advanced deeper into the dungeon, taking breaks along the way.

“I think this is the room with the mid-boss,” I paused in front of a large door.

I remembered that when I had ventured with Agetha, a mid-boss had appeared after passing through a door like this. It was a battle with a rock golem.

I had chosen a different teleportation circle this time and advanced, so there was a high likelihood of encountering a different monster. Well, let’s go inside anyway.

“Screeeeeeeeech!”

A giant griffon screeched loudly.

It seemed the mid-boss here was different from the rock golem.

As usual, the black sword moved of its own accord. I simply thought about not interfering with the sword’s free movement.

And before I knew it, the giant griffon had been defeated by the black sword.

“…It feels like it’s gotten bigger.”

I looked at the black sword and thought so.

Initially, it should have been the size of a typical sword, but it clearly seemed to have grown a size larger.

Moreover, it should have transformed from the tip of my arm into a black sword, but now it had changed from the end of my shoulder into a black sword.

It felt as though my own body was being consumed.

“Is it okay?”

I felt uneasy, but there wasn’t much I could do about it. So, I had no choice but to continue forward.

◆

After that, the black sword continued to defeat monsters one after another.

As it defeated them, the black sword was undeniably growing. With its growth, it became heavier.

So, the effort of dragging the black sword while walking gradually became more strenuous.

When monsters appeared, the black sword would move automatically, but as the volume of the black sword increased, the force pulling me became more violent.

It was as if the black sword was roughly pulling me like a carriage, defeating monsters along the way.

Thanks to this, my body was in a terrible state, with blood flowing from the scraped marks.

“This is bad, isn’t it…”

The black sword had already consumed half of my body. And, somehow, yellow eyeballs had been generated from the black sword. Those eyeballs were restlessly observing the surroundings.

“It’s a dead end…”

I had been descending to the lower levels for a while, but I had reached a dead end.

I didn’t know where else to go.

Just as I thought that, I found a teleportation circle.

Hmm… it seems like I can proceed by stepping on this.

“Oh, I found it rather strange, but I see you’ve parasitized an adventurer. Moreover, it appears you’ve already grown quite a bit,”

In the place where I teleported, Judite, the vampire, was standing.

“What exactly is going on?”

“Oh, so your original consciousness is still intact,” she said in surprise.

“So, what brings you here? Naturally, it must be for the extermination of the parasitic sword on your right half, isn’t it?”

“Parasitic sword…?”

“Parasitic Sword Puppeteer of Guts and Machination. What you have is parasitizing people and devouring monsters to grow, is an extremely dangerous entity. I thought it was fine since people rarely come to this dungeon, but well, there are exceptions, I suppose.”

“So, you mean you’re going to kill me now?”

“Yes, that’s correct. You catch on quite quickly, don’t you?”

As she muttered this, Judite tore off her left arm with her right arm.

Then, an overflow of blood splattered from the severed point.

What on earth…? I thought for a moment, but the blood splattered from her quickly gathered and solidified.

From the torn shoulder, a blood-made arm appeared.

The torn left arm transformed the blood into the shape of a blade, turning into a crimson greatsword.

“Then, please die.”

Saying so, she swung the blood-made greatsword. However, the Parasitic Sword Puppeteer of Guts and Machination was not about to lose.

In response to Judite’s relentless attacks, the Puppeteer of Guts and Machination also held its ground.

“Why not use a little trick?”

Saying this, she threw her severed left arm straight up.
