ALL NOVEL Chapter 31 – Minced meat.
The man moved even closer to the counter. Nazuna shivered. "What do you mean 'We have no rooms available'? Do you know who you are talking to?" The man stared at Nazuna as if she were his enemy.
She did not know what to do. She looked at the staircase and also at the partially open door. Outside, she could see two more muscular men waiting for their friend.
"All the rooms are occupied; I'm sorry for that. The inn is small... We don't have many rooms."
"You could at least leave a sign outside warning about it. I would have saved some time." The man grumbled.
"I apologize for that." Nazuna bowed to apologize. Unlike Nahida, she couldn't get out to put up a sign outside. So when the man asked her to go out to "put the sign," she refused.
"I can't do that. When my boss comes, he can do that."
"Let's go right outside!" The man grabbed Nazuna's arm and started pulling her. Even though the man had never seen a woman with that strange appearance before, he thought she was very attractive.
Clearly, he didn't want to take her outside so that she would put up a sign about the lack of rooms. A mischievous smile was on the man's face. "Let's go! You don't want to see me angry."
"But... Please, stop it!" Nazuna began to hit the man's hand. The man angrily kicked the door and closed it. After that, he leaned over the counter and grabbed Nazuna's neck.
GUH~~
Nazuna made a strange sound after her neck was grabbed.
"Help..." She managed to scream, but the sound came out too low, and Shirou couldn't hear her cry for help.
"I won't let you scream. I've already told you you will come with me. Even dead, your body can be put to good use." The man was wide-eyed, like a lunatic.
Tears appeared in Nazuna's eyes. She couldn't call for help, and she couldn't breathe anymore. Her vision began to blur. The man's face became increasingly distorted in front of her eyes.
Seeing Nazuna was about to pass out, the man put more force into his hand, causing Nazuna's neck to turn extremely purple.
"Please...Please..." Nazuna choked on her words.
When Nazuna was close to losing consciousness, however, she was saved by an unknown person. The door suddenly opened, and the hand holding Nazuna's neck lost all its strength.
A strange wire ran through the man's arm and cut it.
"GAAAAAH! What the fuck is that!" Seeing his arm ripped off, the man screamed in pain, causing Shirou upstairs to be alerted and rush downstairs.
"What's going on here?!" Shirou saw the severed arm on the counter and blood gushing.
"Please help me! This woman is crazy; she's trying to kill me!" The man begged for help. He could only beg as his body was completely trapped, and he could no longer move.
Shirou saw Nazuna lying on the ground, breathing hard. Shirou understood very well what had happened. But before he could do anything, the man's body began to be transformed into minced meat.
Strange wires began to cut his flesh as he screamed. He only died when the wires hit his organs. It took a few seconds, causing the man to suffer in deep agony before dying.
Shirou observed that grotesque scene and didn't quite know what to do. He stood still and did not know how to react.
A strange man appeared after the man's whole body was turned into minced meat.
Shirou had not seen him before. Souei.
"I'm here at Rimuru-sama's request to check on the hotel. Fortunately, I arrived on time." Souei said with a blank stare.
"Welcome..." Shirou swallowed his saliva. Nervousness was evident on his face. He was slightly scared of Souei, yet he tried to act calm. Shirou ran over to where Nazuna was.
"I'll take her to the room so she can recover. After that, I will take care of it." Shirou would have to care for the man's body and clean everything up.
Shirou ran towards the room, and Souei stayed at the reception.
"Hey, what's taking so long? I want to rest." Then, two men came through the hotel door.
"WHAT THE FUCK?!" The first man who came in shouted. The second man, who saw the pieces of his companion all over the floor, started crying almost instantly.
"You son of a bitch! I'll kill you!" He shouted with tears in his eyes.
However, before the men could do anything, their bodies were caught by Souei's threads.
"I'm in a hurry, don't get in my way."
Now Shirou would have to take care of three bodies.
####
Souei arrived at Rimuru's house sometime later.
"So, how is the hotel?" Rimuru asked. Sitting facing Rimuru, Nahida looked at Souei, waiting for him to say something. Souei then told the two of them everything that had happened.
Their blood boiled when Nahida and Rimuru heard about what had happened to Nazuna. However, they both calmed down when they heard the men were killed.
But even so, Nahida was still worried.
If everything Souei was saying happened, his hotel was all bloodied up at the moment and could cause some problems for him.
'Shirou is probably cleaning up at the hotel, but I must return.'
"Rimuru, I need to go."
"Are you sure?"
"Yes, I need to take care of it."
"I'll go along with you to help you. You need to get rid of the bodies, don't you?"
"I thought you didn't want to do that anymore."
"What happened isn't my fault, but I'm involved. I think I'd better help."
"..."
