Returning home, he began to regret throwing away the sword, as a big mistake. He should have simply ignored all these problems. So he had no choice but to simply go home.
I could, of course, go to Naaza and ask for money, but the problem with my eyes could give me away. And Miach might even guess — after all, one should not underestimate a god who has lived not a thousand, but millions of years.
Of course, this was an excuse, just to avoid meeting the God. Because for some reason, the mere thought that he would talk to God evoked uncontrollable hatred in him.
— Maybe I should kill him?
He stopped in the middle of the street in thought. His lips began to rise — the idea of killing a god was a completely different experience. But he immediately had to pull himself together: if he killed a god, that fun would last only a couple of seconds.
I do not know what could happen after killing a god. Maybe, if Miach sensed danger, he would kill me with his divine power. Even if I managed to kill him, I would quickly be killed and executed on the spot.
And why should it be Miach? After all, in this world, there are many gods, and outside it, there are no fewer — they were everywhere. If I could find a god who had left Orario and was exiled… Would anyone find me? Even if this god had a familia, it was not that important, because leveling up outside Orario was a very difficult task. Level two would already be a feat for them.
But he would do that later, because right now he needed money for fun and sex. There were many ways to earn money, and the fastest was the dungeon. Of course, he understood this, but he needed money right now. He was already thinking about solving this problem — he just needed to catch and kill someone, a newcomer, to get basic equipment.
And, of course, he would do just that. Why think about something else, when the solution to the problem was right under his nose? The main thing was not to get caught, and that was all. So, it was decided. But right now, he had to recover. Even if he did not feel fatigue, that did not mean his body was not tired.
Kane did not want his body to simply refuse to obey him in the middle of a fight because of ordinary overwork. Even if he could fully squeeze everything out of this body, reveal it to one hundred percent, he did not need to do that. If his muscles tore or bones broke, he would not even know about it. Simply because he felt almost nothing.
However many times I thought about it, I could not understand it, but I guessed — it was because monsters do not need that: neither fatigue, nor fulfilling the needs of their body. All monsters needed one thing — to quench the thirst at any cost. I had long guessed that this was impossible to do, because however hard I tried, it would only grow stronger and more uncontrollable. But that was not so important. Why think about what he could not change? After all, it was even not bad — an eternal goal.
And under such thoughts, he reached home. Having bathed and quickly eaten what he found, he threw himself at another problem.
— How do I fall asleep?
Kane thought, only now realizing that, however hard he tried, he could not fall asleep, because his body was unconsciously always tense, and on top of that, he did not feel fatigue. How to solve this, he did not know. But not for long.
— Kh…
If I cannot fall asleep in a normal way, then I will simply lose consciousness. And the fastest and most harmless way is to deprive myself of access to air. So without hesitation, he began choking himself. It was a very good idea, Kane thought, praising himself for such a wonderful mind.
Feeling his mind slowly fading, he felt for a second how the grip on his neck weakened. He unconsciously feared that Kopii was taking over his mind, that his fun would end so quickly.
— Not even a day has passed. Bitch.
But it was useless panic, because he quickly regained control over his hands and again began squeezing his neck hard.
But before he lost consciousness, one unwanted thought flashed through his head.
— But am I really...
But he no longer had time to think about it.
---
Kane walked through the streets of Orario with a carefree gait. On his face, there were glasses, which he had successfully stolen. But no big deal.
He walked, fully focused on his thoughts, or rather, on what had happened.
After waking up, I could not move even a finger. The realization of this filled me with complete disappointment at what was happening. But that did not mean I would not try to regain control over the body, which I managed to do quite quickly.
And his disappointment evaporated, as if it had never been there from the start.
Thinking about this incident, he pondered one incomprehensible fact: if he copied someone else again, then wouldn't that help Kopii return to his normal state, and the fun would be over?
Some time later.
— I'm in shock.
Kane thought, not finding a single adventurer who was alone, without a party, without good equipment. Everyone he met was well-equipped or there were several of them. So he just said "screw it" and attacked two little darlings walking ahead.
But he immediately changed his mind when he saw one of them hit a goblin, and not even a wet spot remained of it. And his gaze was fully directed my way, as if saying that he knew I was following him and knew why.
And this demonstrative gesture let me know what would happen to me if I did not stop. Of course, I understood it, and in that same second, not a trace of me remained. But as I ran, I cursed them deep in my soul, and at the same time was grateful to them.
For the chance to leave. So they were only half-bastards.
Kane ran through the lower floors like a madman, killing all monsters that crossed his path.
— What's this? A corpse?
Kane ran until he stumbled upon a corpse, and the smell of blood struck his nostrils. He could not believe what he saw — how lucky he must have been to find what he needed so much at that moment! He could not believe his luck, knowing Kopii's luck — it definitely would not lead to anything good.
Before he could even think about what would happen to him, the answer made itself known when he had to dodge a blow to the back.
…
Kane looked at the attacker with a smirk. Fury and hatred reflected in his eyes. He had clearly misunderstood something. He could perfectly understand what the man was thinking, but the man did not even give him a word to explain himself, and began attacking without pause.
But, catching him on a mistake, I managed to push him away from me and close the distance between us.
— I understand how it looks. But I didn't do it. Believe me? No?
At my words, his face twisted with fury.
Inhale.
He suddenly lunged at me. He became faster, but not fast enough that I could not see it. He was level two at most. I could even perfectly understand what kind of person he was. A person who cannot stand aside when "good deeds" are happening.
«Damn, how well I read such low creatures. Ahaha, yes, I am perfect.»
But I had no time to think, because I had to dodge the onslaught of his opponent again.
— Calm down.
Bang.
Hitting him in the stomach, depriving him of oxygen for a few seconds, he doubled over, trembling, clutching his stomach, trying to take a breath.
I smiled at such a pitiful sight, feeling power over him. This feeling was quite intoxicating. Leaning to his ear, I whispered:
— You're next.
Before he could raise his gaze, his head flew off and fell with a thud onto the cold dungeon floor.
— Damn, how lucky.
My joy knew no bounds.
