[1st POV]
(Makima's office)
"Are we done with the details?" Makima asked and reclined on her chair after a lengthy discussion about the mission.
"Yup, so done," I said in exasperation. Listening to her talk about how the civilians were evacuated, the outline of the town, where I could fight, which cultural monuments I should try to avoid destroying, and all that for nearly an hour straight. I'll admit, I stopped listening after the first ten minutes.
"How many did you get?" she asked.
"I think a few. I could write a pass mark if you give me a test," I said while gesturing with my hand, so and so.
"That's more than enough," she smiled, "Your only goal is to go in and kill the devil. The details are just a procedure I am bound to abide by."
"Easy for me then,"
"Just...try to minimise the damage. They are a small town with a low economy. It would be hard for them to rebuild. Every house meant fortune for them," she said.
I gave a thumbs up.
"My driver will bring you to Chiba, and I will give a call to the Police and the Devil Hunters stationed there about your arrival, so there shouldn't be a problem," she said.
"Thank you," I said sincerely. I thought I would have to take a train. Going by car would be much better and perhaps faster.
"If that's all, I'll leave," I said and turned around.
But before I could take three full steps, Makima stopped me.
"Wait,"
I raised an eyebrow as she stood up from her chair and came to me. She took off the overcoat that she was wearing and handed it to me.
"What's this?" I asked.
"Wear it," she said.
I put on the coat. It was already warm inside due to her body heat, and I could smell her scent all over it.
"Consider it a token of good luck," she said with a smile.
"You mean like how the princess gave their clothing to their knight going to war?" I asked with a chuckle.
But contrary to my joking tone, she answered sincerely, "Exactly,"
Now I'm scared, suddenly. I did not know why. Did she plan something to kill me in this mission?
No. Am I scared that I'm going to start liking her now?
"It's the perfect fit," I said while doing some actions with the coat. "How is your coat a perfect fit for me?"
Her lips were already curved, so she smiled with her eyes, "I wore your size to work so I could give it to you."
That's....weirdly wholesome. But it also made me wonder, how the fuck did she know my size?
"Well, it's an honour, princess," I said with an exaggerated bow like a knight, which made her chuckle.
"Go now, my knight," she played into character too, bending her knee a little for me.
I left her office in a better mood than expected. When I went out of the headquarters, the black car was already waiting for me on the side of the road.
The driver waved at me and opened the door for me when I got in the car. After that, we were on our way to the Chiba Prefecture.
The journey was 2 hours long. It felt longer, though, since the driver and I exchanged no words throughout the whole car ride. But I did enjoy the scenery after we drove out of the city of Tokyo.

[1st POV]
(Chiba Prefecture)
Now here I am in the haunted town of the Chiba Prefecture. The whole town had nearly 10,000 people living in it and around 3000 buildings. The town was not as big as you would expect, it was compact. Individual houses were rare, and it was mostly tall buildings due to Westernisation and the existence of Devils.
That was one of the things about this world. Cities were compact and people preferred renting an apartment more than having their own homes due to collateral damage from devil attacks.
Nearly all of the civilians were evacuated and moved out until the devil was exterminated. So the whole town that was usually bustling with life was in absolute silence and stillness. It was noon but the vibe was already making everything creepy.
My nose twitched as I continued to follow the scent of the Devil. The smell was, in all honesty, mouthwatering. It was undeniable that there was a Devil hiding somewhere in this town.
I turned my head to the right, my nose catching the same scent from a different direction as the previous one I followed faded away.
"How are you doing that?" I asked aloud. I think this was the fifth time that the Devil changed location suddenly. It was almost like the Cannibal Devil could teleport.
I shrugged and easily changed my direction. I did not make an attempt to run after it and walked at a normal pace. The coat that Makima gave me was really good; it made walking feel like I was aura farming or something. It added immensely to the drip.
Maybe I should get one. Although I was not sure whether I could get one. I heard coats were hard to make and with my track record of destroying my clothes every single incident, they might not give me one.
This time, the devil no longer changed location. After around five minutes of walking, I found myself in the town square.
The devil did not appear yet but from the smell, I could tell that he was somewhere around here.
"I know you can hear me!!" I called out while standing in the centre of the town square. There were many important buildings and shops around me.
"Can you move your location with the teleportation or whatever!! I was instructed to avoid destroying this place!!" I said.
My voice echoed, bouncing through the empty buildings. There was no response whatsoever. But the scent of the devil got stronger.
I looked around and waited a few more seconds, and the devil finally appeared.
I looked up to the top of a building, "Finally showing yourself huh-WHAT THE FUCK??!!"
My eyes widened as I took a close look at the devil on top of the building.
It was a beautiful naked girl with the biggest pair of boobs I have ever seen, at least that's what I wanted to say.
But no. Reality was far more disappointing. What I gazed upon was the exact opposite of a beautiful naked girl.
An absolute abomination. And that means a lot coming from the Pig Devil himself.
The devil looked like a human body that never decided what it wanted to be. It had the shape of a human but every part of its body seemed to be made of half-eaten corpses.
It had two heads fused as one. The faces connected on the cheek but they shared a wide mouth that went from the ear of one head to the other.
The multiple bodies were connected by human teeth instead of stitching. In fact, it had multiple teeth protruding out of its fleshy, hairy and skinny body.
It had four eyes. One looked dead, one cried tears, one was red and crying blood and the last eye looked normal and was looking directly at me.
I've fought a lot of devils, but this one took the second spot as the ugliest thing I had ever seen. The Sex Devil was still the ugliest one, in my opinion.
Wait, speaking dicks. Were those dicks hanging on its waist? Oh my fucking god, it's wearing foreskin as trousers.
I changed my mind. That thing was single-handedly the ugliest and most disgusting thing I'd ever seen.
"Why can't I fight a badass-looking devil? Just why?"
The devil opened its mouth, and that was when I saw the hidden horror inside. Its mouth was filled with rows and rows of human teeth that went down its throat.
The devil paused for a moment and then screamed. The scream was terrified, like it was the scream of every victim stitched together in a symphony of cries. It was also loud enough to break the glass of the building he was standing on.
Level by level, the glass exploded and shards rained down on the ground.
I took off my coat and threw it as far away as possible. I pulled down my necktie, and my transformation followed.
My head bulged out, my clothes ripped from the sudden expansion of mass, and I screamed at the Devil before I fully transformed.
"Haaaaaaaaa-rrrrrREEEEEEEEEEEEE!!!!!" My human scream turned into the unmatchable shriek of a pig as I completed my hybrid transformation.
At this point, I was used to the pain of my transformation, especially the hybrid form. But what I wasn't used to was the increasing level of hunger. The stronger I got, the hungrier I became.
Suddenly, the mouthwatering scent of the devil was tempting enough to drive me insane.
And I went insane.
The earth screamed when I moved, it was a protest of reality. I was a behemoth even in my hybrid form, and I should not be moving like a bullet.
But I did.
I charged straight into the building in a cry of explosion. From inside, I jumped through the ceiling and climbed up to the next floor. Then I jumped again and climbed to the next floor. I climbed up the building level by level like it was a ladder.
The building shook, rubble flew, and concrete was crushed into fine dust as I made my way up in the most destructive way possible.
On top, the Cannibal Devil was still stationary. It looked over the destruction before moving back and looking down at the ground, expecting my arrival.
It did not wait for long. After chains of destruction, I reached it.
But not in the form it was expecting. What came out from under him was not my hybrid form but the gigantic mouth of a full transformation. The size of my head alone was nearly half the building, and the devil found itself between my jaws.
The entire roof of the building collapsed into my open mouth, and the Cannibal Devil along with it. My mouth closed with a loud snap that sent shockwaves across the sky. There was no escaping the maw of endless hunger.
My whole body crashed out of the building afterwards, the length of my body while standing up was nearly the height of the whole building. The engineers did not prepare for such destruction.
Finely layered concrete turned into rubble as I fell forward and caught myself with my front hooves.
*BOOOOOOM!!*
A titan landed at the town square, and the Cannibal Devil was crushed inside my mouth.
But...
Missions like this were never this easy, were they?
