Unusual Fate Records

Chapter 20.020. Coming to Pick You Up

The man's face was obscured by the mask.

However, the best effect is achieved by retracting the movement.

"What are you worried about?" the dual-gunner asked with a playful expression.

opportunity!

Araki didn't care about any of that. Like a shark smelling blood, Iron Finger Tiger became even more ruthless. His opponent was hesitant to act, but he wouldn't.

Jin Ziyue's knife remained steady, and the chill that crept up from his limbs could not stop the man from wielding the knife.

It is unwise to use a long sword to block a knuckle duster, just as it is unwise to use a knuckle duster to intercept a long sword.

The situation immediately changed.

Frost clung to the trench coat, dripping down with each leap.

Human physical strength has its limits.

Moreover, thanks to the accidental success of these two, the initiative has now returned to our side.

never fail.

Ito Nanayuki remained unmoved, understanding that she was merely a bargaining chip between the two sides.

Koji attacked the two men fighting like a lion or tiger, leaving them no room to intervene and not even the courage to draw his gun.

"Crench."

At that moment, the iron frame leading to the gate was kicked open, the swinging door slammed against the wall and bounced back, the entire door frame clanging loudly.

A woman holding a gun to the manager's throat shouted:

"Don't move!"

Fujiwara Chizuru's expression was cold and stern. Despite being alone, she remained composed, her brows revealing a sharp edge, like a rose blooming on a high mountain.

She spoke slowly and deliberately, the megaphone at her waist whirring as her voice came through the device:

"You are surrounded! Drop the hostages!"

The sirens blared behind them, as if a large number of armed personnel had suddenly appeared, making the entire icehouse even more noisy.

"Scrap..."

Araki turned his head and glanced at the opponent, but when he tried to engage in a fight again, the opponent had vanished from his sight.

Araki's pupils contracted sharply; he was clearly caught off guard. How could this guy escape in front of everyone?

The scene was somewhat chaotic at one point. The appearance of Fujiwara Chizuru drew most people's attention, and then the only ones who turned their attention to the battle were Araki, who was fighting, the dual-wielding man holding the hostage, and Asuka Eisuke.

"Disappeared?"

"How is this possible!" Eisuke Asuka muttered to himself, a strange chill creeping up his spine.

"He still smells of blood." Araki gave the order to the people behind him, completely ignoring the armed woman who had barged in.

Ito Nanayuki stared blankly at the man in black standing there.

There seemed to be a gaze fixed on me from behind the tattered white mask.

He stood there, motionless, his upper body trembling slightly from his breathing. But judging from the actions of others, it was as if he had vanished from the world.

Ito Nanayuki's eyes trembled uncontrollably.

……

Why can't they see you?

"Because when your presence is as insignificant as dust, very few people will notice you, even if the dust drifts right past you."

"It's amazing that someone this big can be as tiny as a speck of dust."

……

Blood was dripping from the corner of his mouth.

He ignored the blank stares that swept across the room.

He strode over.

A warm stream suddenly welled up in Ito's eyes, her nose tingled, and tears streamed down her face, filling her eyes with a radiant glow.

Those present remained solemn and tense, watching intently, unaware of the girl's unusual behavior.

Araki shivered with cold air, and layer upon layer of white frost fell off, like a radar repeatedly filtering through, refusing to miss any blind spots.

Yet the man in black stood there, his hair, mask, clothes, and bloodstained longsword covered in frost. The monstrous Oni ogre remained completely unaware of his movements.

Eisuke Asuka and the Double Gunner understood even better that they could become the target of this escaped giant lion at any moment.

Witnessing this scene, Fujiwara Chizuru's eyes widened, her powerful thinking ability like lightning, and she suddenly grasped an important clue.

"he……"

"Fujiwara Chizuru murmured."

But at this moment, the only man in the entire room who didn't need to think was no longer lying low.

Although the manager's hands were handcuffed by Fujiwara Chizuru, he remained agile, his right elbow suddenly rising and striking Fujiwara behind him.

Because she was distracted, Fujiwara Chizuru didn't react immediately and took the hit head-on. The pain made her retreat repeatedly.

The fat man's counterattack did not stop; a sudden side bump caused Fujiwara Chizuru to lose her balance and fall backward.

Behind him was an iron gate; his body slammed against it, producing a creaking and clanging sound.

The man snatched the gun from Fujiwara's hand. Chizuru gritted her teeth and gripped it tightly. In the end, during the struggle, she threw the gun away.

Then he was punched by the manager in a fit of rage. His abdomen burned like fire, and the pain stimulated Fujiwara's nerves. Finally, he slowly fell to the ground and lost consciousness.

The manager ignored everything and fled through the door, tearing at the door as he became as fierce as a wild beast.

The sounds of fighting, amplified by loudspeakers, once again drew attention, and the sirens wailed loudly, but everyone knew it was just a bluff.

The frost crackled and snapped, and Araki, hearing the sound, thrust his tiger-skin dagger. The icy chill masked the bloodshed, but it also restricted the assassin's movements.

Suddenly, Araki saw the reagent that had been dropped on the ground and was making a clinking sound.

Low temperatures cannot completely prevent explosions.

The chemical reagent cracked and quickly released irritating gas. The explosion was not loud, and it didn't even produce a spark. However, in the current climate of heightened awareness, it once again attracted everyone's attention.

At that moment, a man in a black trench coat suddenly appeared in front of Eisuke Asuka, his figure materialized, and he leaped up, sword in hand.

The black shadows and silver glints of the blades made it seem as if the Grim Reaper himself stood with his scythe.

The sharp, piercing sound of the blade cutting through the air was both urgent and fierce. Asuka Eisuke's eyes widened, and he had no time to react as he watched helplessly as the cold blade sliced ​​across his throat.

A thin line of red marks opened its eyes.

This is the newly formed flesh in the throat, which has just begun to heal.

Blood seeped out, and Eisuke Asuka felt a sharp pain in his throat.

The long sword swept across with undiminished momentum; the next obstacle was the girl's neck.

At this moment, the long sword had already retracted slightly, narrowly grazing the pale face.

Also sliced ​​off was Eisuke Asuka's right hand, which he was holding hostage to a girl.

Ito felt a force pulling her forward. In a daze, she had already raised her hand, her protective gloves taking the black-clad assassin's leather gloves. Her hands were covered in shards of ice, but she didn't feel any coldness.

The girl leaned forward, her short hair flying in the wind, gradually disappearing from Eisuke Asuka's sight.

The smell of blood carried a strong aura of death.

To delay this moment indefinitely.

Ignoring the gushing blood from his broken hand, Eisuke Asuka watched the receding figure shrink as it slowly faded back into view, resembling a long-haired, adorable girl.

"Brother~ Brother!"

"Brother! Brother!"

With joyful eyes and outstretched, tender arms, it was like a fledgling swallow being embraced.

At that time, her eyes shone like stars.

Eisuke Asuka looked up and finally remembered that back then, her eyes were exactly the same as Ryu's.

"Seven... Snow..."

The man's trachea was damaged, making it extremely difficult for him to even speak.

He raised his hand, which had been cut flat, but there was no time to make any move.

Volume 2 is starting soon, so you can look forward to it! This volume is coming to an end, and I hope you all enjoy it.
