For better or worse, I wasn’t your regular mob.So, forget about all the remote, uneasy places humans hardly go to—all the abandoned forests, caves, or dungeons I, a monster, should have been from—and picture a bright, lively family restaurant, in an oh-so-peaceful human village. A restaurant where people ate, chatted, and jested together, all having a good time, blissfully oblivious to the fact that, very soon, I would be cutting them all down.By magic, a monster-type creature spawned in such a place. It was me.So far, for the few seconds I had been living, it was quite the good life… I got to listen to a fantastic story being told and shared a cool moment with people.However! Following an uncertain course of events, I happened to be put up against a wall, with a sword aimed at my chest, before I was mercilessly killed.I, a unique monster, just spawned in that restaurant, with no clue regarding what was going on.All I knew was that I wanted to live and survive.Also, I knew I wasn’t your regular kind of monster.Thankfully, I’d been granted unique abilities before I showed up.That is how I managed to survive.(less)
