Shinka no Mi

Chapter 5: First Battle

“Ukyi~i~i~i!”

“I’m so sorry . ”

I do a dogeza with all my might . Although there is some distance to the clever monkey, it was a pre-emptive strike!

Putting that aside… . the current me could not feel his presence… . obviously, I am not a master . Wait, seriously this situation is that, isn’t it? Scary . Since I did make that much noise, one or two monkeys were bound to appear . Rather, is the current situation I am in a blessing or misfortune? Either way, a danger is a danger . In front of the monkey, I am waiting in dogeza .

… .

A…are?

Somehow, I was expecting an attack . In this situation, I look and wonder at what will happen . Is it unexpectedly peaceful?

Because I am scared of an attack that could happen anytime, without moving my body, I raise my face fearfully .

“Uh . . ”

“Eh?”

When I raised my head, the monkey that was at a distance kicked the ground with all his strength and jumped in front of my eyes . That appearance was almost like a football player before making a shot . [ED note: European football where you actually hit the ball with your foot]

“What are you——“

My words were silenced by the action of the monkey .

“Ukyyyyyy”

“Ueeei?!

The monkey releases the foot it was pulling back with all its might . In other words, a shot . Thereupon that foot became an attack .

“Choichoichoichoi! Seriously!?”

The attack came at me with a terribly fast speed—–

“Guha~tsu!”

Zusha~a~aaa!

I got cut by that attack!

“It hu~u~u~u~uuuurts!”

I roll around in ground .

“It cut me! This is ba~ad! Blood is… . . blood is flowing!”

Why am I so healthy even though I was cut!? But thanks to twisting my body a little before it cut me, I wasn’t cut in half . Only my stomach was cut… . !

Are? This is quite serious, no? Looking carefully, my stomach is in a state where a mosaic has to appear!!!

“Ukyakyakya!”

The monkey, while looking at me rolling in pain, is clapping and smiling .

This guy’s personality is bad!! It is a big sadist!

“It hu~rts… It hurts…!”

I take out [First-class medicine] from my item box and drink it immediately .

“N …… n…… puha~a!”

While I drink it all, the monkey bursts out laughing intensely without attacking . Annoyi~ing… . by the way, I just drank this medicine with this acrid color for the first time, but it is unexpectedly good . How should I put it… it tastes like a refreshing soda . It’s carbonated a lot . Amazi~ing . While having that feeling, at some point the cut in my belly disappeared . The [First-class medicine] is fearsome! Now that I am healed – I’m going to have a word with the monkey before my eyes!

“This guy! You bastard! You sure have guts for ignoring my dogeza! I am going to beat you to a pulp . Come o—–”

“Ukyi~iii!”

“Gufu ~oa!?”

Before I finish saying all my words, the monkey jumps at my chest and attacks! Mekibakiboki! An unpleasant sound is made from the bones . Gucha . I hear the sound of something being crushed .

“Gofa~tsu!”

I got thrown away just like that, crashing into a nearby tree . I am defeated . At last the tree at my back finally stopped my momentum .

“Shi… . . -it…”

My back was stuck in the tree, so I just stayed like that .

“Ukyakyakyakyakya!”

Looking at me in such a state, the smart monkey makes an even happier smile .

For sure, the attack just now had broken some bones and the internal organs too . Pain that cannot be experienced in real life attacks my body . Heck…I couldn’t see the monkey’s movements . When did it strike my chest?

When I was on Earth, the people who treated me as a sandbag had a power that seemed to be nonexistent in comparison to that attack just now . … even though that group had members of the boxing club . My body is pulled by the sensation of flying .

“Go ho~tsu! Ga ha~tsu!”

From my mouth flows a red-black liquid making my already dirty uniform and body even dirtier .

Wait, why is attacking me? Did I do something? No way, it wants to kill me to eat me?… . .

Then, what is the reason for it making that happy face! I will kill you with one attack . I thought from the bottom of my heart . It’s difficult . But, to beat me this much, is it seriously thinking of making me his food?

What if it wants to kill me as a way to pass time… u wa~a, I don’t want it… . I don’t want to be eaten . Won’t you just look at the food? I can’t imagine a monkey eating a human .

“Re…covery,,,,”

I begin to shake for some reason and give my body that didn’t move like I wanted it to an order by force . From inside the item box, I took one [First-class medicine] . I, for the second time, wanted to drink this but——

“Ukkyā!”

“!?”

The monkey did not permit it . Again, with a speed which surpasses my recognition, my head is grabbed and is lifted with an arm that boasts a terrifying power .

“A ga……!?”

“Ukikyi~i!”

Nita~a . it’s like an onomatopoeic word appeared . There is the clever monkey with a disgusting smile . Uwaa, I wanna punch it! This is the first time I saw its form so close . It is taller than me, around 2 meters tall I think . I don’t reach 170cm tall but I weigh 100kg, you know . The monkey is certainly tall and is covered in red fur . The body is not well built . I see it as an average-looking build . Such a clever monkey raises me by the arm like a branch . Mouu it surprises me .

“Ukkyā!”

“~Tsu!”

The clever monkey with my head grasped swings me around, finally smashing me against the ground .

“Gufu~tsu!?”

“Ukyakyakyakya!”

My head hurts like it is breaking . It did a good work of crushing my head . I thought that it is crushed like a tomato for sure . Furthermore while it was swinging me around, I thought it broke my neck . My body, do your best!!! After this, I will praise you . When all of my body was bleeding and my conscious was fading, the monkey notices it and nods one time .

“Ukyi”

………… .

Why is it nodding now? Seeing the condition of my body like that? …… To defeat it, It’s impossible . After I thought like that, the clever monkey opens his mouth fully . Eeeh, wait a bit, seriously? Eeh, will I be eaten?

“Ukkikikkikyi ~!”

Why is with that ‘itadakima~su’-like action!? Seriously it wants to eat me?

Even though I was almost unconscious, seeing the unexpected action of the monkey, I awaken completely .

Hiyaa, I didn’t seriously think it was looking at me like I was his lunch! But no matter how much awake I am it is no good . My head is grabbed with all its strength . In this situation where I can’t move freely, it’s pointless .

The clever monkey is going to start eating me from my head and is getting me closer to his mouth, but frowns from some reason .

“Kiki~tsu! ? Ki, kyi……”

It feels like it was saying [uwa~tsu! ? It, ree~eks ……] . Let me be!!

And that’s how it got sick trying to eat my head, so this time, it’s trying to eat my belly . Un, certainly, it is the part of my body that is more full . I recommend it . Isn’t the fat delicious? At this time I already accept that the smart monkey is going to eat me and I give up . That’s how the face of the smart monkey is getting close to my body――――

“Ki~tsu! ? Ki, kyi…………” ‘Throws away’ . [ED note: No real sound effect to show the monkey throwing away the guy]

“Buhe~tsu!”

I fall to the ground . Wh…Wh…why!?

I can’t understand what is happening to me anymore . Why, until a moment ago, I was held to be eaten and suddenly I find myself in the ground . I just can’t understand .

I am laying face down in the ground, opening my eyelids desperately trying to grasp the situation .

Then, the appearance of the clever monkey is reflected in my eyes but… . .

“Eh…?”

Reflected in my eyes are the feet of the clever monkey . What’s more, it doesn’t look like feet that were used to stand . Just like me, its feet are spread out on the ground .

“Wh…what the hell…?”

In my head, I can’t follow the current situation . I try to reach the first class medicine that fell when the clever monkey was swinging me around .

“……”

Somehow… if in this situation I drink the first class medicine, I will be fine… -making that decision, I make my body move . I reach the fallen [First-class medicine] with my hand and drink it .

“N……n……n……puha~tsu!”

The refreshing taste of the carbonated soda spreads around my body~!

“Ge-pu”

I involuntary let a burp . Maa I drank this carbonated drink in one gulp . This [First-class medicine] is a bit carbonated, but seriously this medicine is amazing . The wounds from before seems like a lie . However, it can’t recover the loss of blood and stamina, so I feel a bit dizzy .

“Ite tete……n a?”

Now that my body is somehow recovered, I look at the clever monkey .

“… . Why is it making bubbles?”

The clever monkey’s eye whitened and clever monkey had fallen, making bubbles .

“……”

I can think of the reason why the clever monkey is defeated . A hypothesis is made in my head .

“Ehh, iya… . But what if that was true… . ”

But, if my thinking turns to be true, I got myself in quite the unbelievable situation . In the end, I say what caused this is—–

“…my body odor?” That’s what it means .

Seriously?! Just how much do I reek right now!? I think I can’t notice my own smell . It can’t be, I reek to the level of a pig!?

“Ooh… . it’s a complicated feeling… . ”

Certainly, the clever monkey frowned when it got close to my head . That’s because my head reeks . However, the part of my body that reek more is not my head nor my feet, but my abdomen because of my heavy body odor… it seems .

I think that I understand it even if I do not say so, but the smell of the lower part of the body will be the worst .

Perhaps, because of the smell of my own blood, I didn’t realize it, but the moment my nose got close to my armpit it, I was attacked by a murder-class smell .

“Seriously… . . ”

I lost color .

“Mmnh… . ”

But is my smell seriously able to knock out things?

“……”

I got close to the unconscious clever monkey with its eyes turned white .

“……Bikubiku” [TL note: That’s the anime famous onomatopoeia when a character lose conscious and move the feet]

“… . . Ei” I crouch, and get my armpit close to its nose .

Bikun~tsu! Bata . [TL note: Convulsing sounds)

“……”

The clever monkey’s life has ended

I half-rise to my feet quietly, move to the edge and sit down a little .

…………………… . May I cry?

◆ ◇ ◆

After a bit of time, I get close to the corpse of the clever monkey .

“……”

Too pathetic… . ! To die… . . because of my body odor, I can’t hold on! This feeling of guilt!

“I’m sorry! Please forgive me!”

“… . . ”

“Stop this silenceeeeeeee!”

Well it is dead so the silence is obvious, but…only this time, I have to make it clear . I, since coming to this world, killed for the first time a living creature . Though I did not mind very much when I easily killed insects mercilessly while playing in during the old days on Earth, but the clever monkey in front of my eyes is an animal . I do not have any experiences of killing an animal . I should feel a bit more I thought, but that method of killing… .

“I can’t get a solemn atmosphere at all… . !”

More like, you know, normally won’t the feeling of guilt crush you?! Why am I fine!? As expected, is it because the killing method is wrong!?

That’s why seriously I will apologize with all my might!

“Ahhh… . I can’t believe after coming to this world, the first life I ended turns to be like this… . but I am glad that I don’t have any useless feelings . If after killing a creature of this other world, I develop a trauma and I can’t hunt or eat animals, then I will starve . Animals’ proteins are important, you know… . . ?

“… . At this moment, what should I do with this… . ?

I touched the corpse of the monkey . Suddenly the clever monkey became particles of light and disappeared .

“Uohh?Wh…what?

Surprised by the sudden occurrence, eventually it disappears completely into light particles and where the corpse of clever monkey was until just now, various things has fallen .

“This is…”

It can’t be, drop items!!? It’s seriously a world like a game!!

I pick up the drop items and use [Intermediate level Analyze] . I start analyzing something like a 1m bone .

“[Ken Monkey Sword]: sword made from a big bone”

It was a big bone that supported the body of the smart monkey . Ohh . Game-like… . looking at the results of the analysis, that’s the level of my feelings… . .

But, there are 3 of the same bone, all with the same name .

Hell, the clever monkey has a Japanese-like name, ‘Ken’ .

[Ken Monkey Sword] eh . Un . This seem like it can be used as a weapon . Let’s put it in the item box .

“Next is… . fur?”

I pick up what appear to be some reddish-brown fur and analyzed again .

‘[Ken monkey Fur]’ . Fur that had covered the body of the clever monkey . Defense is good, but is weak against fire .

I see…What impressions should I have besides this?

Only the texture is better that I thought so I can use it to wipe myself after washing .

“Let’s keep analyzing… . De, what is this?”

The next one I took in my hand is tied with a string neatly and is an object wrapped in a leaf .

“Maa, after analyzing it, I will know”

So let’s analyze already . [Ken Monkey meat]… . Clever monkey meat . It has a firm form and is highly nutritious .

Ohhh . The first meal I could secure after the seeds of evolution . And moreover, it’s meat!!!

“Lucky, until now, it was very hard… . ”

Maa it’s been a while since I ate meat . My belly could be surprised and start hurting .

“But I will eat it!!!!!”

Why? Because it is meat of course!!!… . No problem .

“… . What is… . this?”

The thing I pick up from the ground was a thing like a card .

“Maa let’s analyze it”

My eyes opened wide from surprise after seeing the result . The result was that the card was a…………………… .

After eating the seed of evolution, I took a new step towards my new life .
