Episode 198
She stood in front of the boss.
And then he raised the blade and struck it in a straight line that looked beautiful-
“Aaaah!!!”
“… … ?!”
-It stopped just before it set.
Because I heard a familiar scream.
I thought I was going to die, so I turned my head to see the leader, who was so frightened that he was exhausted to the core.
One of his few close friends there… No, his classmate Kia was standing there with a shocked expression.
Why is Kia here?
Mika’s pupils got bigger.
Then, she opened her mouth in an uncharacteristically embarrassed voice.
“uh… why… you… … .”
“that… excuse me… Ray… He told me to follow him… according to… I came… … .”
“Ray… this?”
Ray told you to follow me?
Did he know this would happen?
How did you know I was here? Did you know my identity?
No, that’s not important.
What do we do? This situation now-
“I… excuse me… This… … .”
“that person… main… Did you kill him? Mika you… ?”
“uh… therefore… Yes… “But it was self-defense.”
Mika first tried to cover up this situation with lies.
But the leader she could not kill spoke in a trembling voice.
“thing… It is a lie! That bitch! Even though we couldn’t fight anymore, they still stabbed us to death! They even tried to kill me by silencing me! “She’s good at killing!”
“… … !”
Mika glared at the leader with murderous eyes.
Because of that, the leader didn’t open his mouth anymore, but Kia had already heard everything he said.
“Mika… “Is that true?”
“… … .”
If you want to gloss over it, you can do it as much as you want.
Because lying to her was as easy as breathing.
Moreover, considering that the person who spoke was a pickpocket, if I lie here, Kia will believe me without much doubt.
Mika tried to persuade Kia with lies, as he had done up until now.
“that’s right. It’s true.”
“uh… From where to where?”
“entire. They even tried to kill that man by silencing him. As a bonus, he’s also good at murder.”
what. Why am I saying all this?
Contrary to her thoughts, words that seemed like confessions were flowing out of Mika’s mouth.
It’s not like I’m under a spell!
Mika quickly closed his mouth and looked at Kia.
Her judgment was already creaking like a broken gear, and emotions that she had only felt as a child were creeping up and constricting her chest.
However, a tiny sprout of hope bloomed within those creaking gears.
Mika said, ‘If it’s Kia… ‘I ended up with shameless expectations.
“Kia I-”
With such anticipation, Mika placed his hand on his chest and tried to appeal his situation.
but-
“… … .”
―Mika saw it.
Kia’s face turned pale.
The slender body and pupils tremble as if looking at a monster.
The moment Mika saw that, he realized how excessive and unreasonable his expectations were.
Yes, I knew.
At the point when I was cursed with this thorny vine that grew from my toes to my cheek.
For me, my fate was already decided.
I wanted to be understood by someone, but I realized that I did not deserve to be understood.
“… … .”
Mika lowered his head and his eyes brightened as usual.
And then, at a tired pace, he passed by Kia, who was scared, and walked out of the hideout.
As Mika walked toward him, he looked at Kia, who momentarily flinched, and the last ounce of vitality disappeared from the corner of Mika’s eyes.
When he came out of the hideout, his teacher, Ray, was waiting with his arms crossed.
“W-have you reconciled?”
Ray waves his hand at Mika with a confident expression, as if he is confident that the two students have reconciled.
However, when Mika looked at Ray like that, he still maintained a dead look in his eyes.
Ray, sensing that her mood was unusual, put down his waving hand.
Mika walked up to Rei and said with a cold sarcasm.
“… “How did you know?”
“what?”
“Didn’t you know that I was part of the Imperial Army’s assassination unit, so you asked Kia to follow me? Otherwise, why did you make Kia follow me?”
“I just wanted you two to reconcile. Kia said she has the heart to forgive you. So even if you handled everything on your own, I just made you follow me because I thought there would be something I could help you with.”
Ray looked quite surprised, perhaps because it was his first time hearing about Mika’s identity.
Seeing his expression, Mika realized that he had misunderstood.
But since you’ve already said it yourself, it doesn’t mean anything anymore.
“under. “That child is innocent to the end.”
“I see. What does it mean that it was an imperial military assassination unit? “No, before that, what is the tattoo on your cheek?”
“It’s enough now. “You have no need or right to know.”
Mika held Ray’s shirt and bit his lower lip.
“It’s a little earlier than expected, but… “I’ll end this.”
“What are you talking about? Mika Thuer.”
“Ray. My name is ‘Mika’ and I am a former member of the Imperial Army’s Assassination Department. There is no last name. The surname Tuer was something I made up. Rather, Ray. “I have a favor to ask.”
“wealth… ask?”
“yes. “Please kill me.”
“Kill me… “Ask for it?”
As soon as Ray heard those words, the light in his eyes that looked at Mika went out for a moment.
Ray once saw the image of the woman who had asked him to kill Mika.
Why on earth do these guys ask me to kill them every time they see me? He wrinkled her face and asked Mika.
“Why do you want to die? “More than anything else, if you’re going to die, you can die alone.”
“It’s not something a teacher should say, but… I will give you an answer that you can understand. The reason is… “It’s because I’m under a ‘curse that prevents me from taking my own life.’”
“A curse that cannot end one’s life? “Is there such a thing?”
“yes. The person who can kill me is someone stronger than me. There is no one but Ray. So please kill me.”
There was no lie on Mika’s face.
No, Ray knew that he had no personality or reason to lie about something like this in the first place.
“… “Do you honestly think I’m going to kill you and that’s why you’re asking me that?”
“You have to kill me. “I originally planned to ask for it at the end of this year.”
“however?”
“I got caught, so there’s nothing I can do.”
“You said it yourself… … .”
“It was my mistake. But what… “It would have happened sooner or later.”
Pessimistic about his fate, Mika approached Ray and grabbed him by his shirt.
Then she looked up at Ray and pleaded with her uncharacteristically trembling voice and hands.
“Please kill me… Only you can kill me. “Ray, only you can end this horrible life.”
“you… … .”
Ray gritted his molars, unable to do anything about Mika, who was pleading with a trembling voice in his arms.
“… no. First, tell me about your situation. “Maybe I can solve it, right?”
“I can’t solve it.”
“Tell me first. You know who I am… … .”
“i know! But you can’t solve it! This! “It’s a curse on my fate!”
“What on earth do you mean! Where in the world is there such magic? “There can be such a thing as magic that can manipulate fate!”
Ray immediately denied Mika’s words, but realized it was a mistake.
When Ray denied what he said, Mika looked at Ray with pitch-black eyes that showed no depth, and then immediately lowered his head.
and-
-Shoot!
“What?!”
With the sound of cutting through the wind, the sharp tip of the dagger swung towards Ray’s neck.
“Huh!?”
Fortunately, Ray was able to dodge Mika’s dagger with his amazing reflexes.
However, the speed of her swing was so fast that even though she dodged it, a light wound was left on his neck.
Ray first distanced himself from Mika.
And as he was about to ask what the hell he was doing, he felt hot liquid coming out of his neck and running down his skin, and he ran his hand over the liquid.
The identity of the liquid was blood, Ray’s own blood.
“… Mika you… … .”
“If you don’t kill me… I will kill Ray. “If you let your guard down, you will be killed by me.”
“Is the joke a bit too much? “Mika.”
“Do you think it’s a joke?”
Mika narrowed his eyes.
From those narrowed eyes, the highest level of lethality that Ray had ever felt was emanating from him.
The feeling of your skin freezing just by looking at it. Her ray inadvertently turned to face her and assumed her battle stance.
Seeing that posture, Mika gave a slight smile as if he was bitter but satisfied, and—
-fault!
It disappeared from sight for a moment at a speed that the eye could not follow, and then appeared right in front of Ray’s eyes.
Ray tried to block her attack, but Mika’s dagger had already entered Ray’s arms.
-Sigh!
Mika’s dagger stabbed Ray in the abdomen.
Fortunately, I was able to knock off her arm before she went too deep.
But blood was already flowing through the suit.
“Tsk… ! This is really… … .”
“As expected, you are amazing. “Among the assassins, there was no one who blocked my attack without using magic.”
“you… “Are you really out of your mind?”
“I’m sane.”
Mika gave a short answer to Ray’s question.
Mika said he was part of the Imperial Army’s assassination unit.
However, even though Ray fought against numerous imperial assassins who came to kill her, her level was off the charts.
Are you saying that this ability to kill, this ability to kill, and this boldness could come from a girl who is not even an adult?
She was sincere. She didn’t do it for nothing.
It was to the point that even Ray thought that if nothing was done like this, he would die.
“shit… … .”
Rei said that he was sick of this situation and put one leg back and activated magic towards Mika, who was really trying to kill him.
“”
When it was pointed at Ray’s fingertips, a spear of lightning flew towards Mika at breakneck speed with a ‘crackling’ sound.
An instantaneous spell that paralyzes enemies by flashing a small amount of electricity.
No matter how much of a magic it is to flash electric lights, it is ultimately an electric shock, so there is no way the opponent can see it and avoid it, and its power is not weak but not enough to kill, so it was thought that this magic would be the most suitable for subduing Mika.
But that was a rash idea.
-stroke!
“Did you avoid it?!”
She easily dodged the shock of and swung the dagger at Ray again.
This time, Ray used his amazing reflexes to avoid the attack, but ended up with a few scratches.
‘Tch! ‘Did you make a prediction by looking at my fingertips?’
If so, I’ll shoot you so many times that you can’t predict it, even if you predict it!
Thinking like that, Ray created dozens of spheres of electricity for to fly through. After shooting, is this a bit too much? That was the thought, but as if even such a thought was enough, Mika adjusted her dagger, placed her hand on the ground, and activated her alchemy.
“”
Alchemy activated quickly.
As a result, the dirt on the floor rose up following Mika’s touch and turned into a sharp metal spear.
Then, the spheres fired by Ray all gathered towards the metal window.
‘wow!’
Ray was inwardly impressed.
Application of the lightning rod principle.
The magic used by Ray is instantaneous magic.
No matter how many there were, with his materialization ability, it took less than two seconds to create that many lightning spheres.
There was no way Mika had the ability to read minds, so he made the decision and performed alchemy in literally less than two seconds.
Ray was impressed by this ridiculous speed of judgment and reaction.
However, as if it was not the time to be admiring, Mika turned Rei’s magic to nothing and rushed towards Rei again.
―Shoo!
Mika’s dagger swinging with the sound of the wind cracking.
Ray was barely able to avoid the daggers, but even he couldn’t dodge them all and continued to get scratches.
“Hey Mika! If I keep doing this, my magical power will only increase! You can’t kill me! “You know?”
“Then Ray can kill me!”
“You don’t like it?!”
“why! “Why does someone who has been killing other assassins of the Imperial Army so far don’t want to kill them now?”
“Is there a teacher who kills a student?!!!”
“Since when have you been acting like a teacher?”
A bloody dance that takes place on a moonlit night.
Mika swung the dagger at an invisible speed, and Ray narrowly dodged the attack and was thinking of a way to subdue her.
The problem is that Mika’s skills are quite… No, she was so superior that it was virtually impossible to subdue her without causing damage to her.
Even if Ray tried to grab her arm to subdue her, he couldn’t catch her because she was swinging her arm at high speed, and even if he tried to trip her by tripping her, he predicted this and whenever Ray tried to do so, he counterattacked and attacked.
This is not possible with physical ability alone. In other words, you have to subdue it with magic… … .
“!”
As soon as Ray chanted, the ground immediately began to freeze.
However, Mika dodged Rei’s attempt by jumping up and hit Rei’s shoulder with his heel.
“Ugh!”
And without putting his feet on the frozen ground, he wrapped his legs around Ray’s neck in the air.
“Ahh?!”
Mika turned in the air, threw his weight around, and slammed Ray headfirst into the floor.
―Kwaang!
Ray’s face fell to the ground.
Immediately after that, Mika stabbed Ray in the back of the neck with the same dagger he had grabbed!
-Sigh!
Mika’s dagger pierced Ray’s neck starting from the back.
Then, in an instant, Ray’s movements that were resisting stopped… … .
“… … .”
Mika looked down at Ray, who was motionless, with cold eyes, and then pulled out the dagger he had sheathed.
Then a large amount of bleeding spurted out like a fountain.
At the same time, the thorn vine tattoo on Mika’s cheek gradually faded and disappeared.
A large amount of blood spurted out like a fountain and poured all over her body.
Mika, who was blankly looking at the blood with unfocused eyes, quietly closed his eyes.
“at last… “He was right.”
This curse will never be lifted and will bind me forever.
Even if I long for the lives of ordinary people, in the end I will never be able to live the same life as them.
There will never be anyone who can understand me or save me, and even if there is, I will kill him with my own hands.
“Now I… What do we do?”
