My transformation into a beautiful girl started with a hemorrhage.

The headless, tall, thin man's corpse began to spray blood like a fountain from the severed neck, making a "swish swish swish..." sound, instantly turning the surrounding area blood red.

A fishy, ​​foul odor instantly filled the air.

The headless corpse of the tall, thin boy remained in the position of holding Asuka hostage.

Kouta, having withdrawn his fist, removed the knife from Asuka's neck, causing the headless corpse of the tall, thin man to fall to the ground with a "thud!"

"Just now, you said you wanted to fight me," Kouta asked, turning to look at the tattooed man.

The tattooed man's mind went blank. He dazedly touched the warm, foul-smelling blood on his face, turned his head shakily to look at the headless corpse next to him, and then looked at Kouta, whose body and fists were spotless.

"Monster!!"

……

Chapter 285 Confession

The tattooed man's mind went blank at that moment. Having lived in society for over twenty years, he had seen a lot of things.

During his school days, he was also obsessed with fighting, boxing, karate...

Of course, he learned these things not out of interest, but to beat people up.

The result, however, was not satisfactory.

He trained hard and studied fighting techniques diligently, but in actual combat he found that while these trained fighters might have an advantage against two or three ordinary people, they were no match for a group of people wielding sticks who would swarm him. The final outcome would once again prove the world truth that "even a skilled fighter cannot defeat two fists, and two fists cannot defeat four hands."

Real combat doesn't rely on so-called hand-to-hand fighting, but on numbers and having no bottom line.

Knowing this, he had always adhered to it... until just now.

who am I?

Where am I?

What was that just now?

...How can a person cross an eight-meter distance in one second?

Why can a fist smash a person's head?

And... is this really a human?

The tattooed man was incredulous that such power existed in the world. He suddenly realized that he might be touching the truth of the world... even if the price might be his life.

"I...I...I~~" The tattooed man stammered incoherently, his eyes glazed over, muttering to himself repeatedly, both shocked and frightened. His legs trembled uncontrollably, like a leaf.

Finally, his legs trembled, and he knelt on the ground.

Only then did they realize that there was a wet patch under his feet. It turned out that he had wet himself in fear, but he was completely unaware of it.

"Please, please, let me go! I was wrong, I'll never do it again! I can give you money, lots of money, please don't kill me!"

He never even considered fighting back to the death.

Because only by standing in his position, standing next to Kouta, can one feel what he is enduring. Every cell in his body, inside and out, is telling him: stay away from this monster, you can't defeat it, you can't defeat it, don't resist, resistance will lead to death!

This is a sense of danger that humans have inherited since the ape era. It is how apes responded when faced with an insurmountable enemy, or when even escape was a luxury.

Under the influence of the invisible killing intent released by Kouta, the tattooed man's ancient memories were reactivated.

Ran and egg.

"Oh~, that's not what you said just now." Kouta's cold voice rang out.

"I—" the tattooed man was about to say something else.

but,

boom!

Click!

Kouta swept his left hand outwards with such speed that it left only a blur in the air. The tattooed man's neck was struck with tremendous force, twisting 180 degrees, his head facing forward and his face backward, and he died on the spot.

"Run!"

"A monster...a monster!!"

"Run!"

……

The remaining six people, seeing Kouta slaughter two people as easily as killing chickens, completely broke their will. They were no longer able to resist, and even their most basic judgment had been lost. Now, all they could think about was: run fast, get away from this monster Kouta...

In an instant, the six people scattered like birds and fish.

"Asuka, close your eyes, it'll be over soon." Kouta released Asuka's restraints and said softly.

"O... Onii-chan! You, you better watch out!"

This was the first time Asuka had ever seen such a bloody scene, and she was terrified. However, in order not to cause trouble for her older brother, she suppressed her discomfort and spoke.

"Don't worry, Onii-chan is invincible. It'll be over soon, and then we'll go home," Kouta said to Asuka with a smile as he squatted down.

"Yes, yes!"

Asuka obediently closed her eyes.

moment,

Kouta turned to look at the six fleeing people, his eyes flashing with a fierce light. He lifted his heel slightly, then suddenly stopped, causing cracks to appear in the concrete ground. He then sped towards one of them like a cannonball.

Although the man was running frantically, his speed was like a tortoise crawling in Kouta's eyes. In a single breath, Kouta was right up to him. Without any special moves or techniques, he simply smashed his head down. However, this time Kouta controlled his strength, only shattering the man's skull. The man's head was like a dented ball, not bursting open.

Because he didn't want Asuka to see any more disgusting scenes.

After dealing with one, Kouta didn't linger; he turned and chased after the other...

"what--!"

"what--!"

……

"what--!"

In less than ten seconds, the final, piercing scream brought the situation to an abrupt end, and everyone was dead.

Kouta returned to Asuka's side: "Asuka, it's done."

Asuka opened her moist eyes and saw her unharmed Onii-chan.

At this moment, Kouta was still wearing the shop's waiter's uniform, and there wasn't a single drop of blood on his body.

Kouta has also noticed this in the past few days.

Whenever he concentrates his mind, his entire body is enveloped in an invisible force field, especially the parts that are directly involved in combat, such as his fists and feet. The force field is more concentrated and solid, which is why he can blow someone's head off with a single punch.

The bloodstains from the battle were deflected by an invisible force field when they splashed towards him, so he was completely unstained by blood.

Kouta looked at Asuka apologetically, blaming it all on him that Asuka had suffered this.

"Asuka, Onii-chan...who?!"

Kouta suddenly turned around and shouted, looking at the tall grass on one side of the unfinished building. His senses were very strong, and he had just heard a suspicious sound.

"There are still some who escaped?" Kouta muttered to himself, then prepared to kill the man.

"Wait...wait a minute!" A sweet, yet terrified, woman's voice rang out.

A woman emerged from the bushes, and Kouta looked closely and realized it was... Maeda Chie.

“I was worried about you, so… I followed you.”

Chie Maeda followed Kouta the whole way. Kouta was worried about Asuka and didn't notice that his car was being followed.

After arriving here, Maeda Chie followed Kouta from a distance.

Then... she witnessed scenes that shattered her worldview.

She had previously thought that Fujiki Kouta was just an ordinary person, but just now, he had killed eight people in a row, seemingly inhumanly.

Seeing this scene, she was utterly shocked.

Many things I couldn't understand before suddenly became clear.

For example: Why was that stunningly beautiful girl named Azuma Kei willing to submit to the "ordinary" Fujiki Kouta?

It turns out that Kouta Fujiki was the real gem!

That inhuman speed and strength is beyond the comprehension of ordinary people!

That's extraordinary!

The money and power that the ordinary world talks about are so pale and powerless in front of Kouta. As long as Kouta is willing, he can easily obtain all of this, because this is extraordinary!

After figuring all of this out.

She was...jealous!

'Damn it, that woman found out about the real Fujiki-kun, so she just went ahead and attacked!'

'Damn it, I was here first! I was the one who got here!'

'Why? Why does heaven favor her so much? She has such stunning beauty, a happy family, and such an outstanding Fujiki-kun?'

Why does she get all the good things in the world?

'Why?'

'Why!'

For a moment, she was filled with resentment, but at the same time, her gaze toward Kouta softened.

At this point, in Maeda Chie's mind, compared to Fujiki Kouta, Tateki Seishun was ultimately just an ordinary person who was better at drawing.

Furthermore, if it were before, she might have actually believed that Li Qingshun loved her.

However, during that year, she slept with countless men; one could say she had been with countless men. She had seen through men's thoughts and their sordid intentions very clearly.

She had only been deceiving herself before.

When you're in hell, you always need hope to sustain you, otherwise... you'll go crazy. And Ritsu Qingshun is her pillar of support; even if it's fake, she has to convince herself it's real.

But now...
