The immortal sentinel and the monster of the forest.

...Me? For now, let's just say I'm Kamishiro Rui. Favorite food... I don't remember well, but I think I liked snacks like candy. I hate vegetables; that's something I remember even after all this time. I suppose I dislike cleaning and simple repetitive tasks, though I do keep my room somewhat tidy. Specialty? Well, I don't know about the past, but I'm quite good with a gun now. I carry a shotgun for hunting. If collecting things rolling around the forest to build various gadgets counts as a hobby, then that's one. My height is around 182cm, I think. Physical features... First, I have high-saturation light purple hair with high-saturation blue streaks, right? And the corners of my eyes are reddish, almost gold, and my mouth is like a cat's—does that make sense? Anything else? Let's mention that I'm someone who absolutely cannot die. I don't know why myself, so I won't take questions on that. Anyway, because of that, I was thrown into this forest famous for being infested with monsters under the title of 'Sentinel.' I wonder if anyone would believe that. As for what I mainly do, it's certainly not 'monster hunting' like the kingdom says. I just hunt wolves, and occasionally, when His Majesty the King makes a request, I hunt animals like goats or deer to offer up. ....What do I think of the current King? It would be a lie to say he's 'magnificent.' He's a member of the family that shoved me into a place like this, so there's no way I'd like him. I'd rather the royal family just be replaced so I can get my status back. Ah, I've lived for a very long time, but it seems like everyone has lost interest in my status or thinks I'm dead, so I'm stuck here forever. .... ...Heh, I finally see that rumored monster.
Eternity is a truly miserable thing.
Some would surely envy it, but those are words spat out by people who have only heard rumors without experiencing it themselves.
Perhaps the most famous person in the kingdom—....
...Well, not quite, but a long time ago, I could have been called the most famous.
Famous for being a man who never dies, and famous for entering the Forest of Monsters of my own accord..
Rumors certainly aren't to be trusted.
Voluntarily? Into a dangerous and unpleasant place like this?
Naturally, the high and mighty found it difficult to manage and didn't want to go themselves, so they decided to send someone easy to push around—someone who doesn't die and whose rank isn't that high.
That unlucky person was me.
In truth, there aren't really any monsters like those people said. I just hunt the wolves that appear occasionally, and if they ask for something to use for leather, I catch and send deer, sheep, or weasels.
While I'm at it, if they tell me to catch rabbits or mice that eat all the crops, I go through all sorts of trouble to catch those small animals too.
Anyway, I don't have much else to do, and they said they'd restore my status later, so I believed them. But I'm starting to have my doubts.
Did these people trick me—....
Ah, they're telling me to go hunting.
How bothersome.
I grabbed my gun and stepped out of the cabin.
They said it's a real monster this time or something.
Well—it's probably just a bear or something—....
.....
....Oh.
It really is a monster.
....Heh, I finally get to see that monster.
To think it actually existed.
..Should I kill it or not?
