I'm the Only One With a Different Genre - Chapter 109

Chapter 109
Weaknesses Are Meant to Be Overcome!

‘Ah… you idiot…’

In the dark forest clearing, Lian lay under a blanket, muttering curses to himself.

‘Why are you acting so foolishly…’

Lian already realized that Noah was worried about him. He knew she was making an effort to talk to him.

Despite knowing this, his actions didn’t follow his intentions.

[Huhuhu…]

At that moment, he heard the laughter of the cursed sword drinking his thigh blood.

[I know, I know!]

‘What do you know?’

[I know why you’re so troubled!]

The sword chuckled and spoke in a suggestive tone.

[It all started after you saw that naked woman’s body, didn’t it?]

‘Ah… I shouldn’t have told Gargandoa…’

Due to the lack of someone to confide in, Lian had once shared his concerns with the sword, who couldn’t talk to others.

It was out of sheer frustration at the time, but hearing the sword’s blunt words made him regret it.

[Huhu, if that’s the problem, the solution is simple!]
T h is w a s c op i e d f r o m ki ngm tl . o r g

‘Is there a solution?’

With a small hope, Lian waited for the sword’s words. The words that came back soon surpassed his expectations.

[You just need to see it until you get used to it!]

‘…’

Lian decided to completely ignore the sword’s utterly unhelpful advice.

[So if you do that, everything will be solved. Are you listening, partner?]

‘Yeah, yeah, I’m listening. Sure.’

[Huhu, I am indeed the most helpful to you, partner!]

Hearing the sword’s triumphant voice, Lian sighed softly.

‘I should sleep now; we have to walk all day tomorrow.’

Lian pulled out the sword from his thigh and tried to reverse summon it immediately. At that moment, the sword transformed into a round ball.

Usually, it would return to his hand, but seeing it change shape startled Lian, who looked down at the smooth sphere in confusion.

‘Did anyone see that?’

Lian peeked outside his blanket. Everyone, including Noah, was asleep, and he could see the silhouettes of the people standing guard from a distance.

The campfires, one for each group, crackled brightly.

Pulling the blanket back over his head, Lian turned to the sword.

‘Why did you suddenly change shape into a sphere?’

As he looked at the sword in his hand, Lian froze.

The black ball had transformed into a beautiful hand.

Creak.

Lian, like a rusty robot, moved his eyes to the warmth beside him.

[How do you find it, partner?]

A naked woman with black hair and red eyes smiled at Lian.

“Guh…!”

Lian instinctively covered his mouth to stifle his scream. He stared at the pale-skinned beauty beside him, petrified.

‘Why… why can I see everything?’

Though Gargandoa’s pose hid the critical parts, it was still on the verge of being visible.

Normally, such situations would involve sudden events covering exposed parts, but nothing happened now.

His stiff brain creaked as it tried to find an answer.

‘Maybe… because it’s not human but a cursed sword…?’

Since the sword wasn’t human, it made some sense…

‘…That’s ridiculous!’

In the world of gags, similar situations had occurred, but exposure never happened.

Even trying to figure out what was happening, the scene before him made it impossible to think.

[It’s something you’d get used to. Come on, touch me!]

The sword moved its body closer to Lian. The moment something large and soft touched his arm—

“Guh…”

Blood spurted from his mouth. About to faint, Lian was terrified at the sight of the sword licking the blood from his lips with gleaming eyes.

It felt like a dangerous situation in many ways. As he struggled to escape the blanket, the sword grabbed his wrist, exposing its upper body to his view.

“Guh…”

Blood spurted again. The sword blushed and moved closer to Lian.

[Humans eat dessert after meals, don’t they?]

Uttering such dangerous words, the sword licked its lips. Its red tongue, as red as the blood on its white face, mesmerized Lian.

Like prey caught in a spider’s web, Lian couldn’t move a finger, staring blankly at the approaching red lips and eyes.

Just as they got close enough to feel each other’s breaths—

“Lian!”

“…!”

Th i s w as co p i e d f ro m k in g m tl .or g
Noah’s voice came from outside the blanket. Simultaneously, the sword’s form vanished.

As he blinked, unable to follow the sudden change—

Whoosh, the blanket covering his head was yanked away.

“…! I knew it…”

“Ah…”

Noah looked seriously at the blood-stained blanket. Lian snapped back to reality. He glanced at the spot where the sword had been and saw it had turned into a thin needle, like those used in traditional medicine.

[I couldn’t let anyone else see such an unsightly scene.]

Lian was speechless at the sword’s cryptic words. Noah’s loud voice had begun to rouse the group.

Despite images of a suggestive tongue and white skin floating in his mind, Lian quickly stood up, knowing this wasn’t the time to dwell on them.

T h i s w a s c op ie d f ro m k i ngm tl . or g
“Sorry, Noah. I caused a commotion, but I’m okay.”

“Ugh…”

Noah looked at Lian, as if wanting to say many things but eventually bowed her head.

“If there’s blood, it might attract monsters from the forest, so let me know if you feel like vomiting blood.”

“Ah! Sorry…!”

Lian immediately apologized and glanced around. The earlier scene overlapped with Noah’s body in his mind.

“Could you tell the others it’s okay? I’ll clean up the blood.”

“…Alright.”

Suppressing her urge to scold him, Noah stood up. Lian was genuinely grateful to her.

“Sorry for the commotion, and thank you.”

“…!”
T hi s wa s c o pie d f ro m k i n g m tl. o r g

Noah’s eyes widened at Lian’s words, her face shifting through unreadable emotions before she regained her composure.

“Okay, leave the rest to me.”

“Alright.”

With a dreamy face, Noah reassured the others that everything was fine and to go back to sleep.

Meanwhile, Lian packed the blood-soaked blanket and took out a fresh one. He changed his bloody shirt and scrubbed his face with a wet cloth.

T hi s w a s c o p i e d f r o m k in gm t l . o r g
Soon, Lian looked clean again.

As the situation calmed, Lian glanced at Noah, calming the awakened members. His gaze soon dropped to the ground.

He found it harder than ever to face Noah.

He had imprinted new information about those soft, smooth, white things in his mind. This time, they had even touched his skin.

‘If this shows up in my dreams…’

Lian imagined himself secretly washing by the river at dawn with a pale face. It was something he never wanted to experience.

[Hmm, it seems one experience wasn’t enough. I’ll help you more in the future, so don’t worry!]

‘No! Don’t do it! Just don’t!’

[Huhu, are you embarrassed? Even in human form, I can’t hide my greatness.]

Normally, Lian would passively agree, but now he was too stunned to respond. The sword’s ‘greatness’ was indeed grand and magnificent.

After a while, Lian finally managed to form a rebuttal in his mind.

T his w as c op i e d fr om k i n g mt l .o r g
‘Anyway! Don’t transform into a human form again!’

[Running from your weakness isn’t manly! You know a real man faces and overcomes his weaknesses!]
T hi s w a s c o pi e d fr o m k i n g m t l . org

It sounded like something from a boy’s comic, but it was really just a crude suggestion to get used to women through exposure to its form.

‘Still, no means no!’

[You touch me all over in my usual form, but you make such a fuss over a change in shape.]

The image of the beautiful woman with the red eyes and long black hair still lingered in Lian’s mind, making the sword’s words sound erotic.

Lian clutched his head, groaning, “Ugh…”

T h i s w as c op ie d f r om k in g m t l.o r g
‘Don’t think about it. Don’t think… wait a minute…’

Suddenly realizing something, Lian spoke urgently.

‘Come to think of it, Gargandoa, were you… female?’

[If you mean the gender for reproduction, then no.]

‘Then that form is just arbitrary…’

[But yes, I am female.]

Lian collapsed onto the blanket.

‘That earlier form…’

[Is one of my forms.]

That meant the terrifying thing that touched his arm was indeed part of the sword’s body.

Lian wished he could just faint.
