I Am Overpowered And A Comedian In Another World
Chapter 64: One, Ten, Nine… Wait, What?

Chapter 64: One, Ten, Nine... Wait, What?

Sexis said if things came to worst he would use me as a meat-shield.

And I replied I can’t help him with that.

Because I am a vegetarian.

At that Erect gave me a condensing look. The look teachers give to students who have spikes as their hairstyle and are more good looking than them.

"You are a vegetarian, my lord?"

"Yes."

"But you drank unicorn semen in my house."

"That was a Mistake! You fooled me. And don’t make me remember that."

"You drank unicorn semen? I am learning more and more about you, Racis." Sexis remarked.

"I threw all of that up after one second. Don’t assume anything."

"If you say so. But if you ever feel like drinking something like that again, call me. I would like you to taste something as well."

"I will rather manually make a shot of unicorn semen than to agree with that suggestion."

"Don’t say that. I have good intentions only."

"Says the person who bends his antennas in hopes of reaching his g-spot."

"Those were just random words that came out of my mouth! There was no truth in them."

I opened my mouth to say something again but I wasn’t able to do that. Because...

"Ten."

Malthus spoke.

"Nine."

Again.

"He is counting, my lord." Erect said.

"Eight."

"That I can see."

"What do we do now, Racis? We wasted our time in useless chit chat!" Sexis went all animated.

"We? Not we, you wasted time, you overgrown vegetable."

"Seven."

Malthus kept counting backwards.

He had given us two minutes.

"There is no need to think now. We will fight. He had given us two minutes to do fuckery and we successfully did that. Now we have to be serious."

"Alright. We shall delay the tasting session for later."

"We are not doing that! Get over it."

"Fine."

"Six."

"Shit only five seconds are left. Get ready, you two." I took a stance.

Erect and Sexis did the same.

The people watching from their houses stayed silent. They also waited with bated breaths.

Malthus placed his outrageous sword on his shoulder.

He had a tense look on his face.

All three of us were ready to rumble, waiting for Malthus’ count.

However...

The bastard stopped counting!

He went silent just after six.

"What? Why did you stop?" I asked.

The scowl on his face remained.

Did he get angry all of a sudden?

But before I could ask anything again...

"Ten."

I frowned.

"Nine."

Sexis looked at me.

"Eight."

Erect furrowed his brows.

"Seven."

"That’s it. What the hell are you doing?!"

"Six."

Fine. I’ll wait once more.

But after the six, Malthus’ scowl deepened, he put his sword back down from his shoulder.

He looked at Sexis, then at Erect and at last, at me.

"Ten."

"Da fuck?"

"Nine."

"Don’t start this shit again!"

"Eight."

"Wait.. Could it be.." I began to figure something out.

"Seven."

What I am thinking is very unlikely to happen but I think..

"Six."

I narrowed my eyes. I waited for a while but upon no result, I took my chance.

I looked at Malthus straight and asked:

"Do you, perhaps... not know how to count?"

He flinched.

Sexis and Erect gasped. The people watching gasped too.

"Wha-wha-t do you mean by that, Human King? Of course I know how to count."

I squinted my eyes.

"Alright. Count till one to ten."

"I have no reason to do that!"

"Dude, if I am dying then I at least want an educated person to kill me. So you have to cooperate here."

"I won’t. Just know that I know the numbers alright."

"Yeah? What’s the source? Trust me bro?"

"Look, I am telling you. I know."

"What comes after one?"

"Ahngh. Seven."

"Wrong."

"I will kill you, Human King."

"That’s why I am taking your interview right now. I want to see if you are worthy of killing me or not."

"I am!"

"Give me a count from one then!"

"Fine. One, ten, nine, eight, seven, six."

"Stop. You are trash. Are you sure you captured forty nine planets? Now I am thinking this is your first day in this business."

Malthus’s brows twitched.

And as if I wasn’t enough to troll him, the people chimed in as well.

"Yes. This guy is noob."

"We don’t want an illiterate ruler!"

"Go to school then come here."

"I teach kids at night in my home. Come to me, I will give you a discount."

"Why do you teach kids at night?"

"Because I like young girls."

Shit. Alright that’s enough. Anymore and I’ll be cancelled.

Also, Malthus was about to lose it.

"Don’t make fun of ME!!" He roared.

"Then admit you don’t know the counting!" I retorted.

"Fine. Yes. I don’t know. I was thrown into chaos before I could learn things like this!"

"All of that is an excuse. You could have learned it."

"What do you want me to do about it?" Malthus barked and an idea hatched into my mind.

"There is only one thing you can do now." I said.

"What?" Malthus asked.

I smiled. "Go back and come after learning the numericals. Then I’ll give you more homework."

"Like hell! Who do you take me for?"

"A naughty student."

"I swear, you are getting on my nerves, human king."

"That’s not how you talk to your teacher. Sit down on your knees and raise your hands."

"Fine. You want me to learn about numbers, right?" Malthus asked.

"Yes."

"Alright then. Since the two minutes I gave all of you ended long ago, I can learn from this moment on."

"... Okay. But can you say that without that creepy smile?"

"Come on, now." Malthus placed his sword on his shoulder again. "That’s not what a good teacher says."

"I am sorr-"

WHOOSH!

Malthus vanished.

I looked around.

I didn’t have to.

Because the next moment, Malthus was just in front of Sexis.

My eyes widened.

Surprisingly, despite the fear, me and Erect both jumped towards Malthus.

But Malthus was faster than us.

He moved his hand and grabbed the two antennas of Sexis.

Sexis slashed his ten scythes on Malthus with all his power but apart from the sparks, nothing happened to the red monster.

Then, Malthus let go of his sword from the other hand and held one hand of Sexis.

"You have ten hands, right, Alien King?" He said and slowly, the corners of his mouth curled up.

"Let’s learn counting with their help."
