Chereads / Rise of the Demon Girl / Chapter 6 - Temple

Chapter 6 - Temple

Yelena soon entered the city and continued on and found herself on the streets. It was a pretty busy street with the smell of food everywhere. Stalls and hundreds of people were there and enjoying themselves. She saw multiple families having happy smiles and their kids having fun.

Yelena soon found herself being very annoyed. She felt an urge to just launched herself at them and just rip them apart.

[Your emotions are spiking host. The emotion of jealousy is especially strong within you due to being the representative of 'Envy'.]

"So that's why, I have to calm myself." Yelena calmed her mind and went away from there. She walked around aimlessly to try to go somewhere where no one was. She then saw a temple with statues of Buddhist there. For some reason her emotions stirred up again and she felt and urge to just take that creepy old smiling faced statue and just break it into pieces. She also saw monks walking there and that just made her even madder.

[People like monks are one of the most annoying beings to deal with due to their ideology. The demons have multiple times tried break the minds of monks but their will stands firm without any signs of breaking. Due to that, the demons sins don't feel any enjoyment killing or torturing them.]

"That's definitely something these people would do. Their strive for reaching enlightenment or something like that. Thankfully I'm atheist and don't believe that crap."

She soon walked to a bamboo forest and looked at the night sky. The moon was lit up beautifully and there was just a nice peace of silence. Fireworks soon fired upwards and made the scene even more beautiful.

"Don't you think this is a nice scene system." Her eyes were calmly watching.

[I think that you should use this opportunity to sneakily kill some people and gain their souls. You should use every opportunity to complete your goal. If you hesitate then you might just die. Your resolution has to be firm to succeed.]

"You're right. I shouldn't waste my time here. Do you recommend anything to buy at the shop?" She started walking off.

[I cannot recommend you something specific. I can only help you but you'll have to decide. I'm only here to help you go down the path you want.]

She quickly analyzed her options and focused on her strength. "Well since my intelligence is so high then I should focus on using it. So I should buy a spell to help me. System tell me a spell that doesn't cost too much. It should also be able to be versatile enough for me to manipulate it."

"15 souls! This is gonna take a while."

[Even the simplest of spells are difficult to wield and obtain.]

"Seems like I'll become the Boogeyman of this city from now on." She had a cold glint in her eyes as a grin formed.

On the television screens across Kamakura, there was a female reporter talking about the latest news.

"Today in the latest news, there have been 5 bodies found. All were murdered in dark alleys and were found brutally killed. The police have been looking for this criminal but have found little to no info. The police station have released an official announcement. They have multiplied the number of cops at night to look and it is said not to go out at night." The reporter kept commenting on the news.

Everyone from the city were scared of this event. In this city, crimes were very low but in 3 days more 28 bodies have been found. All of them were killed at night and their smell were caught by bystanders and were quickly reported to the police.

Now no one wanted to go outside at night and stayed at home hoping that no one would kill them.

Meanwhile, the culprit was at a rooftop. At night, her yellow eyes were like that of a predator stalking their prey. On her jacket and hands were blood.

"Another one bites the dust. This should be enough for me to level up right?" She said while checking her stats. She added the souls to make her level up. A surge of electricity flowed through her body as she felt energized.

She nodded with satisfaction. "I'm soon going to be 2 times stronger than a human. But this is going to be harder now. With the police being more careful and the people not going outside, it's going to be hard to find victims for me to kill."

[Then you should go to an inclosed place so that you can secretly kill them.]

"It's going to be hard infiltrating a house without causing a commotion. If they find me and scream, escaping from there will be hard since the police will be patrolling the streets. I'm sure they're going to take extra measures to keep in touch with each other." She suddenly thought of an idea.

"Since the cops are patrolling places where residents are then I should just go where they won't patrol."

[The problem is that you'll have to find a place like that.]

"We have, haven't we?" Yelena then pointed towards the horizon. "There's the temple there. They are isolated and we get to kill annoying people like them. It's win-win situation for us." She then crossed her arms and smiled with satisfaction.

[That does sound like a good plan. But there are dozens of monk there. Killing them without having one escape is going to be hard. But if you succeed then your power will definitely augment. Plus the people and cops won't look here because the cops will be patrolling and the residents will be too scared to be visiting the temple.]

"But with my new skill I should be able to kill them on by one."
