The story we started

[“There is no more beautiful music in the world than their cries~”]

【Click.】

[The white ball that was not caught fell into the turntable and after rolling for a while, it came to the red 34 position. ]

[The liquid in a bottle of whiskey on the table reflected the dim light, which just happened to be reflected on the ball, covering the ball with a layer of strange and dim color like blood.]

……

[“…It seems to be there.”]

[Gamego narrowed his eyes after reaching the top floor. His brown pupils reflected a large area with people coming and going in the distance.]

[There is a market there, people are walking around in an orderly manner, many familiar housewives are standing together and laughingly discussing daily trivial matters, such as which child has made progress, which neighbor has found a good job, and other daily trivial matters, while the shop owner next to them is shouting hard to promote his products...]

[People were living in peace and contentment, not knowing that a disaster was about to befall them.]

【"snort."】

【Om—】

[The shadow of the man on the ground was instantly distorted, and the powerful Gurongi who had once forced Zaimokuza into a desperate situation in the battle replaced the human form and slowly reached out to take off the ring on his finger. ]

[He clenched his palms tightly, and the small ornament turned into a heavy chain ball in an instant. Gamego swung it with both hands, and the rotating iron ball emitted a deep whistle in the air like an earth rumble.]

[“Pain is but a moment’s matter. Become my sacrifice to advance to the “Game of White and Darkness”, Rindo!”]

[The monster's mouth, which was full of sharp teeth, opened and closed, and every word that came out of it carried an indescribable bloody smell.]

[Not only that, as Gamego swung the hammer faster and faster, the black spheres in a line were gradually covered with a layer of purple ripples, and the gravel and dust at its feet kept trembling, and then they were sucked into the rotating hammer. ]

[At the end of the rotation, a miniature whirlwind had formed around Gamego, and the swinging chain ball was wrapped in the stone chain formed by the wind, like a meteor made of stone. ]

【"drink!"】

[With a roar, Gamego threw the hammer in his hand with force. A violent sonic boom erupted from the front of the ball, and the hammer flew far away at a very fast speed.]

[“Hmm? What is that…”]

[A group of women dressed as housewives were discussing a topic. Suddenly, one of them, a pregnant woman with a big belly, heard a rapid whistling sound and looked up in surprise.]

[A black "shooting star" appeared in her eyes, and it arrived in a flash the next second. ]

【--boom!!!!!!】

[They didn't even have time to realize the pain. In the deafening roar, their bodies were instantly torn apart by the powerful shock wave that erupted at close range. The human flesh and blood body was as fragile as a fallen leaf in front of this force, and could only be ruthlessly torn apart in front of the storm.]

[Not only that, the many pieces of rubble carried by the chain ball also scattered and fell like a rainstorm towards the market ahead. The huge potential energy made these small stones have the power that is no less powerful than bullets, tearing everything in the forward range into pieces. No matter whether it is people or objects, they have no power to resist in the face of the mechanical violence of war.]

[This market was like being bombed by artillery shells, with huge explosions occurring one after another. Sparks and blood were rising one after another, mixed with the screams of humans.]

[People a few streets away heard the noise coming from here. Just as they looked up in the direction of the sound, bright red "rain" suddenly fell from the sky, soaking their bodies. The pungent smell of blood entered their brains through their sense of smell.]

【"ah……"】

[One of the passers-by felt something falling on his head. He reached out and took the object down, then placed it in front of his eyes and fell into a daze.]

[——It was a human eyeball.]

[The true form of the red "rain" is not rain, but body tissue and blood swept up by the shock wave after the human body was shattered.]

[Before he realized what it was and let out a terrified cry, another pitch-black ball of chain had already fallen from the sky...]

……

[When the roar came to a halt, everything came to an end. ]

[At the end of the sight, a raging fire was burning in an area belonging to Jiangdong District, and thick black smoke rose into the sky. ]

[“Looks like he’s in good shape.”]

[Looking at the hell on earth that he had created with his own hands, Gamego not only did not feel the slightest bit of pity, but nodded with satisfaction and turned back into human form, then changed the chain ball in his hand back into a ring and put it back on his finger. ]

[It walks downstairs, preparing to select a new game area using the Russian roulette.]

[——Unconfirmed life form No. 30, Go-Gamego-Re, first committed a crime in the Kameido area of ​​Koto-ku, Tokyo. A total of 34 buildings were destroyed, and the economic losses started at several billion yen.]

【Death toll: 987.】

[Number of seriously injured: 5,462 people.]

[Number of people slightly injured: Unable to count.]

18. Water Beast

"vomit!!!"

When the people outside the light curtain saw this horrific scene, especially the broken human eyeball, many of them who could not bear it vomited on the spot and almost vomited out the overnight meal that had been digested in their stomachs.

There is no way, this scene is really too heavy, it is rare even in the most heavy B-level movies, and the most important thing is that this light curtain has no age limit, so this is a pure natural version without any obstruction.

"vomit--!!!"

With a livid face, Kyosuke Kousaka grabbed the trash can beside the bed and buried his face in it, vomiting wildly. Now he didn't have to worry about the loud noise here attracting other people's attention and letting them know he was here, because the whole school was now filled with the sound of vomiting.

Although there had been similar scenes at No. 6 before, experience and habit were two different things, and the impact of this scene was too great.

Even if they are essentially the same person, Kyosuke Kousaka is not "Kousuke Kousaka" after all. He is still young and immature now, and is not the iron-blooded detective in the future who has undergone countless life-and-death trials in the Shura battlefield and whose spirit has become as solid as a rock. If he were replaced by "Kousuke Kousaka", no matter how bloody the scene is, it would at most make him frown, but Kyosuke Kousaka could not stand it at all.

"These monsters - even a thousand deaths would not be enough to atone for even one ten-thousandth of the evil they have committed!"

After vomiting so much that his stomach could no longer feel any digested food, Kyosuke Kousaka wiped the filth from the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand with trembling movements, then looked up at the light curtain again with an unprecedented fierce anger in his eyes.

Especially when he saw Gamego walking downstairs leisurely after committing such a bloody crime with his own hands, his back and steps were light and happy, but without any guilt, Kousaka Kyosuke could no longer bear it and punched the sheets under him hard, and the whole bed shook violently a few times because of his punch.

Thinking of the pregnant woman with a big belly in the light curtain who was torn into bloody pieces in an instant by the attack from the sky, Kyosuke Kousaka felt that he finally understood why the future "Kousaka Kyosuke" would rather die in battle than retreat from the battlefield so many times when facing those unconfirmed life forms, and he also realized what kind of mood he was in when fighting.

Unlike "Zaimokuza Yoshiki" who hates to use violence but chooses to fight with his fists for the simple desire to protect everyone's smiles, the reason why "Kousaka Kyosuke" fights, in addition to wanting to protect the citizens, is out of the purest hatred and the burning murderous intent from the bottom of his heart to wipe out these monsters that should not exist in the world.

The pregnant woman's belly was clearly already carrying the fruit of her and her husband's love. In the future, she would become a mother, or even someone's grandmother. At the end of her life, she would be buried together with the love of her life in a grave that represented the end of life, and close her eyes peacefully with her loved ones by her side... This was how her future should have been.

But those unidentified life forms destroyed all of this. Her life came to an end in the best years of her life. She was killed by the demon named Gurongi, and the pain will not even end because of this. Kyosuke Kousaka could not imagine how desperate and collapsed the husband of this pregnant woman would be when he learned the bad news that his wife and unborn child had left him forever. A beautiful family fell apart in an instant.

Such families have been broken up countless times at the hands of the Gurongis, like bubbles shattered by waves. The happiness of all people has been easily destroyed by those demons, and they have become cold numbers on the list of victims.

As a policeman, Kyosuke Kosaka has witnessed countless tragedies caused by Gurongi. Although he still appears calm and rational on the outside, the disgusting nature of these monsters has ignited a raging fire of hatred in his heart.

This flame has been burning in his heart all the time, and it will never go out unless all the Gurongis are burned out, or until he himself is burned out.

【Tokyo, Nerima-ku. 】

【10:12 AM 】

[“That’s it, right? Bunkyo-ku.”]

[His feet stepped on the unrepaired floor tiles, and Gamego, who had transformed into a monster, dragged the chain ball to the edge of the rooftop of the building. The heavy chain ball tore the floor tiles into cracks as it dragged, until it stopped with its owner's steps.]

[Its pair of pitch-black eyes pierced through the tall buildings in the distance and saw the Bunkyo District, which was exactly the target chosen by the turntable this time.]

[“This time the place is quite large, and there seems to be a lot of prey. I hope I can have a good time.”]

[“Let’s start from that side…”]

[Its eyes were locked on a street-side coffee shop in Bunkyo District. The entrance of the coffee shop was decorated in a rather luxurious and elegant style, and the name of the restaurant was written in English in a flamboyant style on the sign at the entrance.]

【bellissimo ricordo. 】

[A chestnut-haired girl wearing a popular maid outfit was standing at the door sweeping with a broom, looking up at the sky with a worried expression from time to time. No one knew what she was looking at.]

[But Gamego has no interest in knowing - in a few seconds, the other party will become another dead soul under his hammer. ]

[“If you want to blame someone, just blame your bad luck.”]

[The fang-filled mouth opens, the air is deeply inhaled, and Gamego swings the hammer vigorously. 】

[A violent howling wind blew up above the rooftop as it was swung, and the sand and dust were swept into the range of the chain ball and then shattered into even smaller particles.]

[The destructive power of the hammers has already been demonstrated to the fullest just now. The Kameido area in Koto District is still burning fiercely. If even one of them falls in the direction of Bunkyo District, the tragic scene from before will be repeated.]

[——The premise is that it can hit. ]

【“!?”】

[Just as Gamego was gathering all his strength to throw the hammer towards Bunkyo, something strange happened, and he turned his head in surprise.]

[A blue figure as light as a flying bird suddenly rose from the building in front of Gamego. Just as it turned its head, it spun in mid-air, and its azure body instantly turned red.]

[“Hey!”]

[“Hmm!”]

[As he descended from the sky, he kicked out with his right foot burning with flames, and Zaimokuza roared and kicked Gamego in the chest. This unexpected blow directly kicked him off the edge of the roof. ]

【--Bang!!!】

[The tall body fell vertically from a building at least 100 meters high onto the square in front of the building. The impact of the landing created a deep pit, and the broken bricks and dust completely covered the figure.]

[But Zaimokuza didn't think that the other party had been dealt with at all. All the unconfirmed life forms that appeared after the 25th were not good people. It would be difficult to even injure the other party, let alone kill it, by just falling from a high altitude.]

[A red hand reaches out and grabs a protruding railing on the edge of the roof, and then the entire railing is pulled out along with the base. Zaimokuza grabs the railing and jumps off the roof without hesitation.]

[“Super Transformation!”]

【Om—】

[The railing was aimed at the large pit in the square below where the smoke had not yet dissipated, and in Zaimokuza's angry self-suggestion, it turned into a sharp sword. He transformed into a Titan in mid-air, and the air around him howled dully. He fell down like a meteor, holding the Titan sword upside down.]

【At this moment, Zaimokuza's heart was filled with anger, and the object of this anger was Gamego who was buried in the pit below.】

【Zaimokuza happened to pass by Koto District on his way here. He witnessed with his own eyes what kind of hell Kameido had become after being attacked by the enemy. Blood and fire became the only background color there. He even saw many people covered in blood frantically digging the collapsed ruins with their bloody hands, trying to rescue their relatives buried underneath. Several children who were desperately protected by the adults stood on the ruins and cried heartbreakingly. The children's crying was like a poisonous snake that kept biting Zaimokuza's heart.】

[But Zaimokuza couldn't stop to help those poor survivors, because he had to get to Gamego's crime scene as soon as possible, otherwise more innocent people would continue to die tragically under that nightmarish unknown long-range attack. ]

[He had no choice but to turn the accelerator of his motorcycle to the bottom amid the screams of the survivors. As he drove away rapidly with his back to the people behind him, Zaiji under his helmet had already bitten his lower lip until it bled. Guilt and anger, two conflicting emotions, were fighting fiercely in his heart.]

[And at this moment, this suppressed emotion turned into a fierce flame and erupted towards the culprit who caused all these tragedies. ]

[He vowed to make the other party pay with blood for the sins he committed! ]

[The height of dozens of floors was just a flash, Zaimokuza tightly grasped the Titan Sword and stabbed it towards the pit buried by the rubble.]

[“Go to hell! You damn bastard!!!”]

[With a roar filled with pure anger, golden electric current burst out from the tip of the Titan Sword, and the power of this attack was increased several levels again. At the same time, the potential energy of the fall almost doubled the power of this sword.]

[Amidst the eardrum-shattering roar, the trees around the square bent their trunks in the oncoming storm, and the powerful impact turned into a whirlwind that blew away all the floor tiles near the pit in the square.]

【“——Damn it!”】

【Zaimokuza's curse suddenly sounded. He looked at the tip of the sword that was suspended in mid-air and couldn't help but increase the strength of his hands on the hilt, but no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't move the Titan Sword forward even an inch.】

[A pair of hands stretched out from under the rubble, and the terrifying wrist strength comparable to that of industrial machinery not only grasped the Titan Sword that was stabbing at him, but also lifted up Zaimokuza, who was holding the sword.]

[“Long time no see, my defeated general…”]

[Blood flows out from the skin on his palm that was cut by the sword blade, and flows down the blade of the Titan Sword. A dull sound is heard under the rubble. Zaimokuza can feel a pair of eyes looking at him through the pile of stones, and the eyes contain blatant disdain and sarcasm.]

[“Woooooo!”]

[The next moment, the arms swung violently, and Zaimokuza felt an unrivaled force coming from the sword, throwing him directly out. Zaimokuza tumbled to the ground, sliding a long way on his back across the square until he hit the wall of the building and stopped sliding.]

【"Who are you……"】

[Zaimokuza squatted on the ground, holding up the Titan Sword, and looked at the figure who pushed away the rubble and stood up from the pit, his voice full of astonishment.]

[“What’s wrong? It’s only been a short time since we last met. Have you forgotten me so quickly?”]

[Gamego stretched his limbs, shook off the dust on his body, and turned his neck to make a loud sound of bones rubbing against each other. He looked at Zaimokuza in the distance and said in a cold voice. ]

[“It’s you!?”]

[The series of fights just now were too quick for Zaimokuza to have a good look at the other party. Now when Gamego's figure came into his sight, he immediately recognized the other party's true identity. It was the Gurongi who attacked him on the way back from Kawasaki Kyoka's birthday party last time.]

[Gamego left a deep impression on Zaimokuza, not only because he could manipulate two elements in battle, but also because he was the only opponent that Zaimokuza had been defeated by even after he activated the elemental awakening mode of his all-powerful form. If it weren't for the intervention of another Gurongi last time, he would have died long ago.]

【Zaimokuza has been thinking about Gamego since that time. Although he expected that the two would meet again on the battlefield one day, he never thought it would happen so soon.】

[“It seems you still remember me? This shows that you have a good memory.”]
