The Extra's Return-Chapter 84 Rat Monster

?I'll tell you how I had to find where the nanny was.

After I came to the orphanage and I had remembered the fate of the orphanage, I immediately searched for the nanny's whereabouts using the Hear of Everything skill.

The first thought that entered my brain was to take all the money that she took away.

But I couldn't leave right away because it would look suspicious in Jeanne's eyes. I just marked the direction she was headed and waited for things to calm down. Only after I took the children to the inn did I go to meet her.

Since I had marked the direction she was headed, I didn't lose track of her.

Using my body-strengthening skill, I ran and managed to reach a round metal door on a deserted street with no other people in sight. The round iron door was an entrance to the culvert which was she chose to escape.

I first slashed and destroyed the barrier blocking the metal door. Then I waited for her arrival. When she banged on the metal door to escape, I smiled as I held the metal door open so that she couldn't open it.

And that's how I found her.

Inside a culvert illuminated only by the dim light from a few holes in the ceiling, I stood while engrossed tossing gold coin up and down.

The light of the gold coin managed to illuminate the darkness of the culvert.

"Let me count. One, two, three... looks quite a lot."

In my hand was a chest box.

I had to open and count the gold coin inside the chest box.

I took this chest box from the nanny's hand.

While playing with the gold coins, I watched the nanny who was lying on the floor unable to do anything.

Of course, she didn't hand over the chest box without putting up a fight. She had insisted on keeping the chest box in her arms earlier, but I slapped and kicked her without any guilt.

Perhaps because she had sensed the gulf in power between us and knew that her struggle was futile, she stopped trying to claw and bite me.

She ended up just biting her lip on the floor.

"G-GIVE IT BACK TO ME!!!"

Holding the cheek that I had slapped, she screamed loudly.

Even though she knew her body was unable to fight me, her mouth was still able to yell at me.

She was like a wife who had just been divorced by her husband.

It's sad to see a middle-aged woman in that state. But that's only if it's an ordinary middle-aged woman. Since she was a disgusting middle-aged woman, I didn't pity her at all.

Reap what you have sown, maybe those are the right words for her.

Ignoring her, I closed the chest box and threw the chest box into the Inventory.

Before I opened the Inventory, I kicked her until her head entered the water flowing in the culvert. She managed to prevent her entire body from entering the dirty water. Only her head splashed into the water.

Blurp!

"Kargh!"

She immediately lifted her head up. Her hair and entire face were wet with water filled with dirt. As she wanted to take a breath of fresh air, she quickly covered her nose.

"Blergh!"

She vomited. The contents of her stomach poured out.

When she stopped vomiting, there was something strange in the dirty water flow in the culvert.

A water bubble slowly formed above the dirty water stream. One by one, the bubbles formed and burst. It seemed like there was a creature breathing from inside the water, which caused the creature's breath to come out of the water and form bubbles.

And sure enough, not long after, something appeared and caused the water full of filth to rise like a waterfall.

It was a monster.

A monster suddenly appeared from the water full of dirt.

Did it appear because of the nanny's vomit?

The monster had the shape of a mouse. But, it was the same size as a human. The black fur that covered the monster's body blended in perfectly with the dark color of the culvert. The monster's eyes were bright red, highlighting me and the nanny.

The moment the nanny saw the monster, she released the hand that was holding her nose. She took a deep breath and ignored the pungent odor she smelled.

Surprisingly, she no longer vomited. Her body shuffled backward slowly. She dragged her butt to move away from the rat monster as quickly as possible.

If I didn't move, she would be eaten by the rat monster.

The monster's sharp teeth were ready to eat her.

The rat monster put its feet on the floor and tried to get out of the dirty water.

'Should I let the nanny get eaten by the rat monster?'

No, I can't allow that.

I must leave the nanny to Jeanne.

Looking at Jeanne's perspective in the current timeline, she doesn't know that she had been betrayed by the nanny.

That was why I wanted the main heroine to learn what the word naive was. Jeanne had to realize that she had been betrayed by the nanny. So that she can grow up without easily trusting someone.

That way, the possibility of her being instigated by Jullian someday could be reduced. It was just a precaution in case the scenario I didn't want happened.

My choice of movement was to approach the nanny, grab her by the collar, and throw her away.

As I threw her, she rolled around on the floor like a snowball. But she made it to safety, so she should be thanking me.

'How can I defeat that monster?'

With the current situation, I couldn't pull out the Svangur Sword from the Inventory. There were the nanny's eyes glared at me.

Fortunately, I managed to find another way to defeat the rat monster. In my hand, there was still one gold coin. This was the gold coin that I used to play around with earlier.

Using the one gold coin, I shot the rat monster in the head by shooting the gold coin using my thumb and forefinger.

[Amplification skill - Activated.]

[Strengthening Skill - Activated.]

Of course, I didn't forget to use my skill.

As a result, although this was just my feeling, the speed of my coin shot can be as fast as a bullet.

Syuuu-

Thwack!

The coin that I had fired successfully pierced through the rat monster's head from end to end. The gold coin that I had fired stopped only after penetrating the culvert wall.

In the blink of an eye, a small hole was formed in the rat monster's head. Just that small hole was proof that my attack had successfully hit its target.

My attention shifted in an instant. From initially looking at the rat monster, it shifted to the gold coin I threw.

'It would be a pity to leave that gold coin stuck in the wall of the culvert.'

I jumped up and picked up the gold coin. Then I grasped the gold coin tightly.

'Before heading back to the inn, it looks like I'll have to buy a new robe.'

My attention came back to the rat monster.

The rat monster, which tried to get out of the dirty water stream, limped back into the dirty water stream. It didn't even have time to put up a fight.

He became a corpse without even realizing it.

Floating on the water, her body flowed with the dirty water in the culvert.

Before the rat monster's body disappeared from my sight, I could see a stitch in the monster's skin. More precisely on the hand.

'If I'm not mistaken...'

The stitches were the same as those on the corpses of the children in the cave found by Nya Nu, the kidnapped children.

I frowned when I saw that. A coincidence? No, it wasn't. The two things must be related.

In the novel Demon Lord and Hero of Light, the kidnapping of children would stop after Jullian attacks the slavery headquarters in the city of Burgenfield.

Thus, everyone assumed that the slave traders were the masterminds of the kidnapping of children.

When they connected the slavery case and the child kidnapping case, automatically people's admiration for Jullian grew.

Initially, I also thought that the mastermind behind the kidnapping case was the slave traders in Burgenfield city.

The slave traders that I mean are not only Pavlova but all the slave traders in Burgenfield city. Including their big boss.

But I immediately changed my deduction when I found the bodies of the children in the previous cave.

When I was thinking about it, why would slave traders kill children and leave a stitch mark on the children's bodies?

Step! step! step!

My thoughts were interrupted by the nanny's footsteps trying to escape. I was forced to stop thinking and immediately catch the nanny.

I came from behind her and caught hold of her by the shoulder. I grabbed her shoulder so she couldn't run away.

With her shoulder that I hold, she thrashed.

"LET GO OF ME!"

"You must meet with Jeanne first. She will determine your punishment. Just pray you will be forgiven."

Instantly, her face turned pale blue. When her pale face was mixed with the dirty water on her face, she became a woman that no man would look at.

It was time to bring her to Jeanne's presence. I wonder what Jeanne was doing now. I mean, was she already conscious?𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎
