Chapter 12: The thief’s feet are numb…

“I am a thief.”

In the deep darkness where the moon had not yet risen, a large ogre with a mask pulled over his face moved stealthily.

“I am now moving as a thief. Should I knock? No, it is important to sneak in like a thief here.”

He moved while thoroughly brainwashing himself and walking through the darkness.

Using his past experience as an assassin to turn into a thief, he arrived in front of the mansion, skillfully walking through shadows without making a sound.

A mansion built on this hill a long time ago.

There is a rumor that a slender and beautiful elf woman lives here.

But that doesn’t matter.

It goes without saying that he is incredibly rich since he lives in a mansion like this.

It was important to him that there were many valuable items in this place.

To miss such good prey is not something a thief would do.

At this moment, the ogre thief carefully climbed over the wall and landed.

Even that was silent and quiet.

“Huh, what a kind lady. She easily climbed over the wall and moved into the mansion. There’s no one around to watch out for me.”

The thief skillfully opened the window and entered the living room without making a sound.

Then, when he saw the luxurious sofa, his eyes widened.

“The master’s sofa. Of course, I’ll sit on the guest sofa. In a few minutes, the master will die on this floor.”

At this moment, his brows furrowed.

“No, I’m not taking action yet. Where’s the elf? Yes, she’s not in this living room yet. She’s definitely sleeping in her room.”

He still moved stealthily like a cat.

He quickly found the elf’s room, completely hiding his presence by hiding, and took out a knife at the elf who was sleeping absentmindedly.

“Choosh.”

The moment of anticipation.

Living alone in a mansion like this.

What a foolish woman.

Isn’t this a place perfect for criminals to target?

‘A delicate elf would be a piece of cake.’

In the first place, the elves of this era were perceived like that.

They are annoying and lazy, and because of that, they don’t take care of their bodies properly, so their health is bad.

They would have lived longer if they were originally, but because of their laziness, they often end up dying early without living their full lives.

In the meantime, they have no sexual desire, so their numbers are low.

It might have been different during their prime.

Nowadays, most of the elves are weak and wealthy.

“The master was stabbed to death by me without even opening his eyes…!”

At that very moment, he felt a presence behind him!

“You idiot, what are you doing there?”

“What?! You were followed!?”

He hurriedly turned around.

There was a slender girl standing there, looking at him.

She was short and had small breasts…

She was a young-looking loli.

However, the loli looked at him, realized the situation in an instant, and smiled sinisterly.

“Aha, really? You’re a thief?”

“…”

He didn’t answer.

He just silently fixed his knife and stared at the frail Lori Demon in front of him.

“I’m really upset because I worked overtime late today and I’m sleeping here too. Stop doing stupid things and just get out. I’ll quietly watch you as a fellow demon.”

“Then I have to get into action now!”

He immediately picked up his knife and rushed at the Lori Demon in front of him.

As a professional assassin, he glowed in the darkness.

-Shhh!!

His movements were fast and precise.

In an instant, his knife closed the distance and mercilessly cut the Lori Demon’s neck.

-Ting!!!!

“?!!!”

However, his knife only bounced off her neck, sending sparks flying.

This is ridiculous!

This is a skill filled with my magical power!!

Unlike him who was surprised, the Lori Demon in front of him yawned and mumbled a word.

“You idiot, is this all?”

She is usually a total slob in front of elves, but she is always merciless to anyone other than her boss.

Because of this, many of her employees end up quitting their jobs without being able to stay long due to complaints that she is unfriendly.

This is clearly a fatal problem in her social life and needs to be fixed, but she has no intention of fixing it.

The reason is that she is the last pride in front of her.

The thief of pride was biting it and wielding the knife towards the Lori Mae.

It was a good thing to see the sword towards that girl.

I don’t want to die.

“You look young, so I’m telling you out of concern. You should listen to your elders, you brat.”

“Huh! You brat with no blood in your head, you’re acting like an adult!!”

“What the hell?”

-Chaeng! Chaechaeng! Chaechaechaechaeng!!

“Ha, this is what’s wrong with young people these days. They don’t even have the spirit to respect their elders. To judge the age of a demon, who isn’t even a human, by looking at their appearance, how lacking in basic common sense do they really have?”

As a former professional assassin, his fierce attacks were extremely brutal.

The Ogre Thief was so strong that even if an A-class hunter came, he would definitely be defeated rather than subdued.

Rather, his large size gave him even more strength in agility.

All kinds of assassination skills were flying around.

All of them were high-rank skills with incredible killing power.

“Haa, haa, haa…! Damn it!”

He realized it.

It was impossible….

Defeating the unidentified girl in front of him was close to impossible.

“What the hell! What kind of trick did you use!!”

“Shhh! Be quiet…! Elf-san will wake up!”

“You punk! Reveal your identity! Who are you!”

Yog didn’t hide his words and answered honestly to his question.

“I’m the Demon King.”

“D-Demon King?”

“Do you understand now? No matter how much you dance like an idiot, you can’t beat me.”

“Hahaha!! A lie that shouldn’t be told!!”

However, the thief didn’t believe him.

Of course, the Demon King was defeated and died in battle a long time ago.

That’s how the story has been told up until now.

In fact, he was defeated and his whereabouts became unknown, but stories tend to fade as time passes.

“Haa, I can’t help it. If this happens, I’ll use magic in self-defense and…”

At that very moment, Yog froze in place.

“Ah, ahahaha. I have to go to the bathroom. I’m leaving now….”

“What?”

And the girl suddenly disappeared.

However, it was good.

He quickly decided that he had to escape this mansion right away and tried to crawl out the window.

If that woman weren’t here, it would be easy to escape.

“Hey, what’s this? Isn’t the window broken?”

To be exact, it felt like a transparent wall had appeared in front of him.

“Shit, where the hell…. Uwaaaaaaaah?!!!!”

The moment he turned around, a disheveled blonde elf was standing right in front of him.

She was still staring at him with sleepy eyes, and her gaze had a strange murderous aura.

“You, what are you?”

“.. … “

“What?”

“……Hmm. You’re not Yog, are you?”

Why…?

He had doubts.

Because his body didn’t move.

At first, he couldn’t understand.

But later on, he understood.

This was, nothing less than fear.

“Hmm, you little bastard? What the hell, you little punk dares to crawl into my room?”

“Die aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa!!”

But, he was a pro.

He had to overcome his fear, and now was the time to counterattack.

Before his opponent could move, he quickly moved his knife at the speed of light, and his blade flashed sharply like a beast’s fang and flew towards the elf girl’s vital spot.

-Kwajijijijik!

However, when the elf lightly snapped her fingers, the blade that collided shattered miserably like a cookie.

“What?! The top-grade super-vibration assassination knife that I bought on the black market, reinforced by a dwarf!!”

He was a pro.

When he lost his weapon, he would prepare a backup weapon for such a time.

The thief quickly backstepped, widening the distance, and at the same time threw the poison sachet in his pocket to the floor.

-Pow!!

The poisonous smoke spread and instantly filled the room.

This was a deadly poison that could kill an elephant in 3 seconds.

“Ouch, it’s tingling. It feels weird.”

“W-what?! This is ridiculous! This deadly poison doesn’t work?!”

“I don’t see the thief’s abdomen when I go out.”

It is also a trivial magic, but it has a vomiting of the bleeding.

When I shook my lips, the beautiful blonde was beautiful.

“Looking at you, you look like a kid who’s not even 100 years old. I should’ve known who you were when I attacked you.”

“Huh, Hhuu… That power is definitely something to talk about.”

‘It’s comparable to mine.’

Or maybe even more.

Honestly, even Yog, who was a former Demon King, didn’t have confidence in fighting her.

That’s why he was so nervous and cautious on the first day of the interview.

Because he didn’t want to upset her.

He knew that the thief in front of him was quite capable.

Probably, by today’s standards, even the special police wouldn’t be able to catch that ogre and would be wiped out.

But that elf in front of him…

‘At least, she’s an ancient elf who’s lived for over a thousand years.’

Elves who have become lazy and biologically degenerated don’t live as long as they did in their prime.

Their health is weak and their bodies age early.

On top of that, they have no sexual desire, so their basic population is small.

That’s why the population has become so small that it’s hard to even see an elf.

‘It’s ridiculous that an elf can live for over a thousand years in the first place…’

Even so, their lifespan is only about 500 years.

However, the elf in front of him had lived for twice as long.

Furthermore, she has not aged.

Therefore, the innate physical abilities and magical powers unique to elves are beyond imagination.

Perhaps, she was born with the constitution of a powerful magician.

And her strength, which grows stronger with each passing year, has now come.

You can’t even guess who would be able to handle it. ‘It’s practically a living nuclear weapon.

That day, inside the mansion, the miserable screams of a man slowly turning into a piece of meat echoed throughout the night sky.

The morning sun rose, and Yog took the plastic bag containing the piece of meat and threw it in the trash can outside the front gate.

“Whew, I have to do this kind of chore in the morning.”

She threw away the dirty plastic bag and went inside the mansion.

After finishing various errands, she prepared breakfast and entered the elf’s bedroom.

“Mr. Elf, it’s morning. Wake up.”

“Um, uh-uh, um-nya.”

“Wake up. It’s morning.”

“Huh? Mr. Yog?”

“Yes, it’s me. It’s Mr. Yog.”

“Heheheehee♡ It’s a cute loli demon♡”

“Ah, aaaah!! Mr. Elf! Are you hugging me again!? Let go! Let go of me! I’m going to get crushed!!”

“Hehehe♡ It smells so good… Sniff sniff!”

“Aoooooh!! Mr. Elf!!”

Mr. Elf was infinitely generous to pretty and cute girls.
