Chapter 121
Its entire body is covered with scales of various colors, which also shimmer, giving it an extravagant appearance.
Beneath the monster's head was a very exquisite female mask.
Upon seeing this feature, the female student immediately showed a look of horror:
"Strange... Monster..."
She was so frightened that her face turned pale instantly, and her legs trembled so much that she dared not move. However, after she came to her senses, she screamed loudly.
The Chameleon Monster tilted its head and revealed a bizarre smile;
[Huh? Am I that scary? Don't cry, you're such a cute high school girl...]
It placed its deformed paws on the back of the bench, then slowly moved its head closer to the couple, trying to appear friendly.
The boy next to it immediately reached out and blocked it, standing in front of the girl.
"Yu... Yuka, run away..."
He was so frightened he couldn't speak, but his first instinct was to tell the girl to run away quickly, even though it was almost useless.
Although the city is used to the presence of Monster, Magic girls usually deal with Monster with minimal losses.
But this was the first time they had ever seen a monster with such a terrifying appearance.
Moreover, he had never heard of such Monster chatting with citizens like this before...
[Hehehe... How brave you are, my boyfriend's classmate! But I didn't mean to hurt her.]
The Chameleon Monster's eyes rolled around, its eyelids curving comically upwards, making its smile even more distorted.
[However, I really admire you, so I'll give you a gift~]
The boy was stunned for a moment, and before he could react, he saw a transparent Crystal appear in the Monster's hand and then be placed on the boy's forehead.
His pupils shrank instantly, and then his expression turned extremely painful, to the point that he began to wail. The next moment, black mist began to rise from behind him, and a black shadow about the same size as him began to emerge from his body.
It was a monster wrapped in bandages, resembling a walking corpse, with only its pale mask clearly visible beneath the bandages.
The girl sat slumped on the ground, too terrified to move, her face filled with despair and fear.
"Where... where is the Magic girl? Help... help us..."
She muttered to herself in almost despair.
[Why are you so scared? I used your boyfriend to create Monster! Aren't you curious about what kind of Monster his desires will create? You can find out what he cares about most.]
With Chameleon laugh, the Monster fully emerged, while the boy, his eyes glazed over, fell to the ground like a puppet with its strings cut.
After the Monster appeared, the Chameleon pointed to the person who had fallen:
[Come on, let's devour your host's desires and accelerate your transformation into Mature Form.]
Black mist continuously emanated from the stiff body of the fallen man, pouring into the bandaged Monster's body. After that, its body began to change, like a molting cocoon, gradually cracking apart and revealing its true form.
After the cocoon shattered, what appeared there was a Monster creature, half flesh and half machine, with tires embedded in its body.
Looking at this Monster, the Chameleon showed a look of disappointment.
[What?! A car Monster? Usually, the desire to create such Monster is... to regain one's body? This guy does seem to have a broken leg.]
It kicked the leg of the person who had fainted.
"No... no!"
The girl was so frightened that she burst into tears, shaking her unconscious boyfriend while wailing.
However, Magic girls have not yet appeared.
[Unfortunately, the Magic girl won't be able to find me, because I'm not your average Monster... hehehe.]
It mocked the girl, then looked at the Monster who stood there blankly, motionless.
These prematurely matured Monster generally don't live long, don't even know what they're supposed to do, and aren't much stronger than Monster in their nascent stage.
However, it doesn't matter to it...
The Chameleon Monster didn't attack the still-conscious girl; instead, it looked at the motionless Monster.
The next moment, it reached out and grabbed the car Monster, which looked much larger than itself, lifting it high into the air. Then, it grabbed the car Monster's neck with its other hand.
Upon reaching this point, the car Monster finally remembered to resist. It emitted a muffled groan, and the tires embedded in its flesh spun continuously, rubbing against the Chameleon's body like a chainsaw.
However, the Chameleon's body was unharmed; it only produced sparks and a piercing sound from friction.
In the next instant, the Chameleon tore the car Monster apart from its neck, as if playing with mud, separating flesh from the tires, tearing it all the way down to its shoulder.
The shattered wound spurted out a large amount of black, oily blood, which splashed onto the ground and the Chameleon's body.
It also splashed onto the girl's face.
[It's so dirty... I'm a very clean person, how can I wash it off?]
The culprit that had done all this showed a look of disgust. Although it was unclear how that ugly lizard face could make such an expression, it did not put down the car Monster's body. Instead, it slowly stretched its head forward and suddenly bit into the other's flesh.
Like a lizard, it swallowed flesh and blood, constantly splattering black, gasoline-like blood, while the girl's mind went blank and her body was completely immobile.
Finally, the Chameleon bit into a bluish-green Crystal and swallowed it.
After that, a bluish-green scale slowly emerged on the Chameleon's body, becoming part of its flesh and blood, and emitting an ominous glow.
It wiped its mouth and gave a comical smile.
[Okay, your boyfriend's desires have been satisfied, now it's your turn...]
The Chameleon Monster seemed to be deliberately trying to frighten the female student, approaching her step by step.
However, just as it was about to insert the Crystal into the female student's body as before, it paused and its mouth twitched slightly.
[Huh? You smell familiar...]
[By the way, are you a student at Kaedehara High School?]
The Chameleon Monster twisted its head, its eyes darting wildly, while the female student slumped there, nodding in despair.
[Could it be... you're also Teacher Haihara's student?]
As it spoke, it seemed to have encountered something extremely funny, its mouth stretched to an unbelievable angle, and it burst into wild laughter. The female student, however, couldn't understand why she was hearing her homeroom teacher's name here.
A shadow gradually fell over her face, and the Chameleon Monster drew closer and closer.
[That's great! If another student in that woman's class were to have an accident because of her, her life would be over... Hehehe...]
As it spoke, it stretched out its hand, just as it was about to use this female student as a breeding ground for a Monster—
"--Sizzle!"
With a tearing sound, the Chameleon Monster's arm snapped in two, one piece flying off and spilling a large amount of metallic blood.
The Chameleon Monster's expression twisted instantly; it bent over and howled like a clown:
[It hurts... it hurts so much, who is it!?]
It seemed to be very afraid of pain and was easily provoked.
The Chameleon's eyes darted around, searching for the culprit that had harmed it.
Following the trail of blood on the ground, one could see the figure of a tall and beautiful woman, wielding a long whip engulfed in black flames, her eyes, now completely black, fixed on the Chameleon Monster.
"I searched for ages, trying to figure out who was impersonating us Black Death Cult to create Monster, and it turns out to be a disgusting lizard I've never seen before."
It was a slightly frivolous woman's voice.
Focus your gaze and you'll see a woman in military uniform with dark gray skin, a slender and beautiful figure. Although she is stunningly beautiful, she exudes a dangerous aura unlike that of ordinary people.
This is a female cadre who has been absent for a long time.
Sha Qina, the Apostle of the Black Death Cult.
Chapter Fifty-Five: Returning Home
In Ring Mountain Park, a terrifying Monster suddenly appeared and attacked a couple, causing the boy to faint from the Monster.
Just as the girl was about to be harmed by the Monster, a mysterious woman who hadn't appeared for a long time suddenly appeared.
She wore a dark military uniform, had white hair and red eyes, and stared coldly at the Chameleon Monster arm had been torn off.
The Chameleon Monster clutched his severed arm, howled for a while, and then his eyes unconsciously shifted to the woman:
[They actually called me disgusting! That's such an awful thing to say...]
Even after its arm was broken in an instant, the Chameleon didn't seem to have any intention of running away.
"So, the guy who caused several citizens to fall into a coma a few months ago, and who created a whole bunch of inferior, nascent Monster, was you."
"I don't recall creating Monster like you. Could you be one of the other two Apostle's subordinates?"
Sha Qina didn't pay any attention to the Chameleon's long-winded talk; she simply crossed her arms and looked down at this Monster she had never seen before.
Clearly, this Monster is at a level beyond maturity.
In other words, it's probably related to one of his senior colleagues.
However, she had never heard of Perfect Form Monster being able to create other Monster or devour its fellow Monster like it had just done.
Ultimately, she couldn't even figure out what kind of Monster this Chameleon was.
The car Monster that was just devoured was a wind-type being, so is this one also a wind-type being...?
[Hmm? Subordinates?]
The Chameleon's eyeball rolled around and turned upside down, while its other eye closed.
[I'm not anyone's subordinate. I'm not like you Black Death Cult rabble.]
After the bleeding gradually stopped, the Chameleon, like a madman, started laughing comically again.
Even these emotional shifts are quite Chameleon- like.
However, it did not deny causing citizens to fall into a coma and creating a large number of Monster.
"Mob?"
Sha Qina narrowed her eyes and slammed the long whip in her hand onto the ground, causing black flames to spread across the surface.
"Also, you just mentioned Haihara... that wicked woman, right? What's your relationship with her?"
Now, the mere mention of that name fills her with a sense of indignation at being deceived.
Upon closer inspection... this Chameleon in front of me seems to be a lizard, right? It's quite a close relative of snakes.
Moreover, in terms of the feeling of Magic Power, it is very similar to the Pterosaur Monster that Haihara once created for them.
[Oh? Maple Plain City is really small. You know Teacher Haihara too? We're pretty close... hehehe.]
The Chameleon's shrill laughter made Sha Qina frown.
Whatever the reason, she decided to capture this Monster who was not under the control of the Black Death Cult first, and then interrogate him properly.
Just as she raised her whip, preparing to fight the Monster, the Chameleon extended its tail, which then lengthened and coiled around her arm that had just been thrown out.
The Chameleon placed its arm in front of the severed arm, and before long, the severed arm was reattached.
[Fighting Apostle now isn't worth it; let's do it another time.]
After that, one of its scales flashed, and an extremely bright light suddenly burst forth, about to fill Sha Qina's entire field of vision.
This light meant nothing to Sha Qina, of course.
But realizing that the female student was still standing there in shock, Sha Qina clicked her tongue, quickly landed next to the student, and lifted her black cloak to cover the student's eyes.
The next moment, the light engulfed everything in sight, and Sha Qina turned her head and closed her eyes as much as she could.
When I opened my eyes again, the Chameleon had disappeared.
"It got away..."
Sha Qina scratched her head in frustration.
After the Monster left, the female student took a long time to recover before she could move slightly. When she came to her senses, she saw the boy lying unconscious on the ground and burst into tears.
She gently shook her boyfriend, but no matter what she did, he wouldn't wake up.
Looking at the female student, Sha Qina helplessly put her hands on her hips:
"Call an ambulance quickly!"
