Comics: Starting from Killer Queen

His trembling legs told of the last effort made by his instinct for survival, but apart from the constant trembling throughout his body, he did not take even a single step.

"The last time I encountered this situation was when I first received my salary..."

A tall young man walked into the alley and spoke in a nostalgic tone with a faint smile on his lips.

It seemed that his memories were more concerning than the tragic scene before him.

The next moment, the bad guy who was standing there motionless suddenly exploded. As if to vent his anger, his flesh and blood splattered everywhere, covering the surrounding walls.

Then, the young man's ruby ​​eyes looked at the girl.

Then he came in front of the girl.

To the girl watching, it seemed as if he had teleported. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared from where he was and appeared in front of her.

It was only at this time that she noticed that although the place was covered with sticky flesh and blood, like a nightmare scene, the young man's body was clean without any unnecessary traces.

Then, the young man who looked like a butcher stretched out his fair hand towards the girl. Facing an object that could turn her into a flower of flesh and blood in a moment, the girl's face remained expressionless.

She accepted her fate indifferently without even responding, and gently closed her eyes before the hand touched her.

Can death give her a sense of reality?

It's impossible.

The girl sighed silently.

But, quite unexpectedly, the feeling of mental liberation did not come.

She opened her eyes and looked at the young man who was pulling her face and looking at her with satisfaction.

"Very good, you passed."

The inhuman monster said this and smiled at the girl.

"——Do you believe in gravity?"

Chapter 163 Asakami Fujino

In a remote alley shrouded in the deepening night, a girl in a junior high school uniform was leaning against the wall. Her waist-length, bright purple straight hair was sticking to the wall, and some dust had also fallen on it.

"Hey, gravity and stuff..."

Perhaps because the other party's question was too incomprehensible, the girl did not react to the young man's rude behavior for a moment.

Should I answer the question first, or let the other party stop the action first... However, both of these options would seem very unusual when facing a monster that can easily kill humans.

The girl thought so in her heart, but she couldn't say it out loud.

The young man didn't seem to expect her answer. He rubbed her cheeks without stopping his hands. He lifted up her soft long hair that fell on her chest with a happy expression. After feeling the delicate texture of her hair that was as delicate as her skin, he showed a satisfied look.

"These eyes are also outstanding... You are indeed a good match. So, do you want to merge with me spiritually or physically? I recommend both."

The young man easily uttered words that were full of criminal flavor, but his tone was as natural as a mascot soliciting customers on the street.

"that……"

The girl didn't know what to say, so she just looked up and stared at the young man.

"Oh... by the way, it's really rude of me not to know your name before entering into such an intimate relationship."

The young man said to her with a smile on his face.

"So, what's your name?"

After a moment's silence, the girl gave the answer truthfully based on her most instinctive thoughts.

"Asagami Fujino."

"Qian Shang?... He is no longer a Qian Shen."

The young man looked thoughtful. "Then I'll just call you Fujino. This isn't a good place to talk. Let's leave first."

In a very familiar tone, the young man took Fujino's hand and walked out of the alley.

Although she wanted to resist, her strength was so weak that even resistance was a luxury, and Asagami Fujino was dragged out of the alley against her will.

After walking out of the alley, the girl quickly lowered her head to check if there were any marks on her feet from stepping on the blood-stained ground.

"Eh……"

But there was no dirt on either her little leather shoes or her white stockings. Fujino looked back subconsciously, only to find that the bloody alley had been swallowed up by dark shadows at some point.

Shadows that seemed to devour all the light around them covered every inch of the alley, erasing everything that had ever happened there.

"Although I can't say I'm a good person, I won't throw away my responsibilities. The meat scraps stuck to the wall will be difficult to clean up, and I won't cause trouble for the cleaning staff."

Even Asagami Fujino, who was aware of her abnormality, was stunned by such inappropriate words. While being led by the other party, she stared at the broad back of the man in front of her. For a moment, she was a little dazed and her thoughts were constantly churning.

She gradually understood what would happen next. First, she would miss the curfew, which would make her father furious. Then she would be interrogated about what had happened, and since she could not lie, she would tell everything truthfully.

As a member of the prestigious Asagami family, if I encountered such a situation, I would definitely be severely punished in the end. As a disgrace to my family, I would not even be able to go to school, and my mother would also be implicated.

In the end, I completely lost the place to go back to.

Asagami Fujino was very clear about her situation. She was an accessory, a child brought over when her mother remarried.

Her father only needed what her mother brought, the real estate belonging to the Qian Shen family.

In essence, she was no different from the debts that came with the real estate and led to the bankruptcy of the Qianshen family.

Asagami Fujino once fantasized about becoming a chaste woman like her mother, a good student that would make her father proud, and an ordinary girl that no one would find suspicious.

This effort is not for anyone, but because she herself deeply yearns for this dream.

But no matter how hard she tried, Asagami Fujino herself knew that since it was just a fantasy, it would eventually be shattered.

Although her requirements are not high, just ordinary happiness.

But to do this, you must first experience the feeling of being alive.

Obviously everyone can have it, adults older than her or children younger than her, why is she the only exception?

Asagami Fujino used her free hand to pinch the face that had been ravaged before.

Feel nothing.

Even though the force gradually increased, I still felt nothing, and even the fact that my face was being pinched seemed so blurry.

Everything is so ethereal. In this body that cannot even feel pain, in a consciousness that cannot even understand the feeling of survival or the feeling of being alive, what is the meaning of the existence of a person named Asagami Fujino?

Although she usually avoided this question, Asagami Fujino couldn't completely ignore it.

Therefore, it doesn’t matter if I die, and it doesn’t matter if I am treated too harshly.

She is an incomplete person, an anomaly who cannot integrate into society, and there is no possibility for her to be happy in this world.

Even though she had already accepted this in her heart, Asagami Fujino still unconsciously put her hands on her chest and twisted her clothes tightly.

She slowly lowered her head and stared at the clenched fist. Under the influence of her previous depressed mood, she subconsciously increased her strength, letting her nails pierce into the skin and causing bright red blood to drip from the palm of her hand.

Only such a profound color could allow her to understand what was happening to her.

Otherwise, she, who had no sense of pain, wouldn't even be aware of the injury itself.

As if sensing Fujino's emotions, the man suddenly stopped.

He turned his head and looked at Fujino, whose fingertips were already stained with bright red, and said in a doubtful and frivolous voice.

"Ms. Fujino, aren't you in pain?"

The moment the young man opened his mouth, something in Asagami Fujino's body suddenly broke.

It was like a rusty gear was finally oiled, or a broken string was reconnected.

A feeling that Fujino had never experienced before came from the cracks in her palms that were bleeding.

A burning, intense feeling.

A desperate, unfamiliar feeling.

An unusual, pleasurable feeling.

Asagami Fujino tightly grasped Roland's hand, looking at the vivid experience coming from the palm of her hand. The burning and sour feeling on the tip of her nose slowly spread to her eye sockets, making her eyes sparkle with tears.

She imitated Roland's previous question and gave the answer she should give.

"--it hurts."

"Some things, once gone, can never be the same again. But if you really want it, if you pray to me with all your heart, you will understand that this truth does not exist in front of me."

Then, Asagami Fujino suddenly noticed one thing: the man who seemed to have known that she would behave like this was looking at her without any cover under the dim light.

Those were a pair of eyes more gorgeous than gems and clearer than the sky. Perhaps it was an illusion brought about by the tears, but Asagami Fujino vaguely saw that there were countless overlapping marks deep in the other's pupils.

It was like a Chinese ink painting, a horse standing tall.

"It's a little late to introduce myself now, but I think it's not too late. Hello... Asagami Fujino, my name is Roland."

he said with a smile.

"——Won't you come and be my friend?"

Chapter 164 The Way to Heaven

That was three days ago.

The setting sun in the sky was emitting its last rays of light, and most creatures obeyed their survival instinct and began to return to their resting places. Even the shops open at night were busy preparing materials and had not put up their signs.

At dusk, the devil appears.

At this time when the sky is getting darker, the spiritual veins always seem a little restless.

If the nodes of the spiritual veins are not adjusted in time, bad luck, disasters and spiritual obstacles will occur, but obviously, as the head of the Tohsaka family, Toosaka Rin does not have the power to handle these things alone. Therefore, at this moment of silence, only Kotomine Kirei, her nominal guardian, can handle this matter.

However, from various perspectives, Kotomine Kirei was very happy.

The church itself also has the task of preventing spiritual vein riots and performing exorcism on a regular basis. Moreover, this is also one of the few moments when he can relax.

Although the huge rock that had been weighing on his heart had been relieved, Kotomine Kirei's ascetic lifestyle had not changed. Instead, he became even busier.

The affairs of the Tohsaka family and the church fell on him, and he was also responsible for the operation of the orphanage and the education of the children. Although it was a bit strange for a father to pay more attention to his adopted son rather than his biological daughter, fortunately Kallen herself did not care about it.

When Kallen was with Medea, Sakura, and Illya, she seemed more at ease, and Kotomine Kirei simply let it go.

After a while, after finishing his inspection, Kotomine Kirei came to the church alone and began to pray.

Although he has always been called a fake priest, he has always been a very devout believer.

This is the ossuary that is not generally open to the public. It is also the place where Kotomine Kirei received the gift that changed his destiny and understood the rites of heaven.

In the dim candlelight, he seemed to sense something and suddenly turned around.

He looked at the young man with black hair and red eyes who had appeared beside him at some point.

He is tall, with a holy and solemn temperament. He looks very oppressive, but he exudes a kind of smooth beauty that blends into nature and is difficult to describe in words. He is wearing a luxurious robe that seems to be in medieval style, which makes it difficult to ignore his presence.

The exposed skin on the young man's palms, neck, and cheeks has a delicate texture, is fair and moist, with an invisible jade-like color. The color of his hair is much deeper than ordinary black, just like the quiet darkness of the night.

His facial features are regular, with a harmonious and refined beauty. He looks gentle and indifferent, yet there is an incredible sense of alienation.

But what really attracted Kotomine Kirei was the other person's eyes.

Those enchanting and deep red eyes were purer than any gem he had ever seen and more magnificent than any religious painting. They seemed to reflect the world, yet were not tainted by anything. They were as bright and clear as a mirror.

"Hey, Kirei, long time no see."

The young man looked at the stunned priest, smiled slightly, and uttered a long-lost greeting.

Kotomine Kirei, who was usually taciturn, lowered his head subconsciously after hearing these words, and responded in a fanatical and low tone.

"Long time no see...Lord Roland."

-

"It seems that your trip was very successful. Even with my mortal eyes, I can feel your transformation."

"I just vaguely touched the edge. However, although it was not within my initial expectations, I did get a lot of unexpected gains."

Roland, knowing Kotomine Kirei's doubts, smiled gently.

Unlike his usual subconscious emotional expressions, his smile now seemed more genuine.

"For example, I seem to have inadvertently met several of the requirements for going to heaven. As for the specific ritual framework, have you learned anything?"
