31The second word overturns the game board (Episode 429)
Couuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
Vibrations from an external warehouse affected buildings far away..
The three investigators, who had their eyes gouged out one by one, were tied to chairs and muttering as they clutched their dazed minds..
“what happened… Something happened?”
“No way, us… I came to save you….”
“haha… If so... That would be really nice….”
a moment of silence.
they knew too.
The chances of being rescued from here are really slim. It won't be an easy fight even if a swarm of investigators from the Bureau of Investigation come rushing in..
Moreover, since it had been a while since he disappeared while on a mission here, it was difficult to expect such large-scale support..
The man with bloody phlegm hanging down said.
“I don't want to die... In a place like this... I don't want to die.”
That was right then..
smart…
The sound of a shy knock on a wooden door.
“excuse. I smell blood. go in?”
A voice I've never heard before.
Crash… Clap…
the door is locked.
There would be no way to open it from outside without a key..
Kuji profit-!
“Ah, it's open.”
It was correct to say that it was broken..
I profit…
rattle…
The smell of blood escaped through the door..
“hmm… They don't look like they're talking about anything.”
The investigators, whose eyes had become accustomed to the darkness, took some time to see the person speaking to them..
Jeopuk…
Jeopuk…
And when the person who opened the door approached, the other person's information could be engraved into it..
female.
fairy.
caught.
Beauty.
and… Conquest of the Bureau of Investigation.
It was Karen who found the investigators who were being imprisoned and tortured..
“Investigation Bureau… Are you from the investigation bureau??”
“Well, for now. Shut up, I've got a simple vitalizer.”
The medicine for snowfall that I brought along just in case..
click…
“Sis, I hate it… stop….”
However, contrary to the initial expectation that they would eat the flounder, the investigators found it painful to force the medicine down their throats..
“ah! The esophagus was also tortured. To even go that far, these kids are pretty vicious..”
“Cough… Cough… really… Did the Bureau of Investigation come forward for us??”
“That's a bit complicated….”
“If you came to save us... How much support has there been? Here in this building….”
“I'm alone.”
Upon hearing that, the three of them had expressions on their faces. An expression of concern, not contempt or betrayal..
“You came alone? This is crazy….”
“I know where this is... Hurry back!”
“Also, run away! If they notice, you'll be here too. Come back and let us know we're here!”
Karen tilted her head..
“What are you talking about? If I run away, you will definitely die.?”
“…….”
“I don't want to go home?”
“…….”
one of the investigators muttered..
“I want to go back... I want to take a bath with warm water….”
“this person… Hurry up and go! 'Cause I made a loud noise, they'll be here soon!”
“Are there any guys walking around wearing masks? If it's those guys….”
“no! Not those guys... If you're alone, it's dangerous no matter who comes... Compared to the guys above….”
“…That's why they made the eyes like this?”
One eye pulled out without exception.
When recalling the memory of that time, the investigators shed tears from their only remaining eye..
“Come on… If you don't want to be like this….”
Only then did Karen stop laughing..
Sigh…
She got up and walked out the door and said.
“I'll let you go home.”
“…what?”
“Just wait here for a moment. I'll be right back.”
Karen said that and was about to turn around and go up the pillar, when she found someone standing at the end of the hallway..
across the hallway.
A man with a bushy beard.
It was Ben Hugh, the leader of the group..
He looked intently into Karen's eyes..
* * *
At that time, on the 4th floor of the building.
“hmm… Hmm… Should I leave it here??”
“What are you doing?”
“what?”
“Should we leave something so monstrous here? I'm so disgusted that I feel like throwing up..”
“no way… All human bodies are the same, why is that? Please be pretty.”
What she lined up were eyes soaked in a strange liquid. all human eyes.
It was well over twenty..
She collected much more snow than this, but it was all at home base..
A killer obsessed with eyes, Silk said.
“But Durette, it doesn't take longer than usual.?”
“Didn’t you hear the roar earlier? It sounds like they are smashing it to pieces since it is the last time..”
“They say if you smash it up like that, it will be hard to clean it up later.….”
“We're leaving here today. I guess we'll solve everything before that..”
“Rather, Ben Hugh?”
“well? I haven't seen you since before.?”
Knock knock…
Everyone's heads turned towards the door..
“Was Ben Hugh originally that meticulous??”
“No.”
“…Then he will die soon..”
Silk grinned and asked a question beyond the door..
“who is this?”
“who… crab?”
A playful retort came from behind the door..
“Are you planning on pranking me? I like that too.”
“…thank god. Tskcha.”
Kujii profit…
Karen smashes open the door again.
“opened.”
She appeared indoors with a smile on her face and was wearing a hat..
“…fairy?”
“Hey… Is it a superb product? I think I can make some money if I sell it..”
Silk asked with a frown..
“Are you an investigator??”
“uh? that's right.”
“what… That reaction. But why did you come here? Didn't I go the wrong way? I didn't meet Durette.?”
“Wasn’t this a place where bad guys gathered? I think I came to the right place.”
Karen's words, people looking at each other.
“Puss… Wow… Pfft… what?”
“Oh my, here comes this dangerous guy. to catch us?”
Karen said, holding her shoulder and swinging her arm around..
“In some cases.”
“Depending on the case? What are the other options??”
“It could kill you, right? If you resist?”
“…what? Are you going to kill us? you alone?”
“huh. If you resist, I will kill you..”
Silk snorted, looked back and asked.
“Are you saying you want to kill us? Oh my, I guess I should die. I have a habit of being obsessed with beautiful women, so I could die..”
Everyone playfully accepted Karen's words, but a man with a suspicious text tattooed on his face spoke up. He was the one who had not opened his mouth until now..
“Everyone be on guard.”
At those words, everyone corrected their awkward posture and skillfully took up a formation suitable for battle..
“…what? really?”
“He is strong.”
“A strong man? That fairy?”
Karen smiled brightly and stayed still.,
Paaaat…
“…Let's join forces.”
“Damn, what are you saying... Adol! What!”
“I do not know. however… ominous.”
Silk looked at Karen with serious eyes. She bit her lip and took a stance ready to attack at any time.
“Our fortune teller says so, so we should follow it. Still, you have to have motivation..”
she said to karen.
“Would you please take off your hat??”
“hat?”
Sigh…
When Karen took off her top hat, her features were clearly visible..
“Wow….”
“…eye.”
Even more than the harmony of her features, Silk was obsessed with her eyes..
“Those eyes... It's the most beautiful snow I've ever seen. I want it. No, I will have it.!”
“…If you can take me down, you can.”
A man named Adol said.
“Going all out from the start.”
He activated his ability by tearing the paper material..
[Adol uses Isiljigo..]
“I am Adol. There is almost no hitting ability. Weaken your enemies and strengthen your allies.”
[A light-hearted attitude is activated..]
[The effectiveness of debuffs against enemies increases by 30%..]
[The duration of buff effects on allies increases by 20%..]
The man with the rapier said.
“It's Starlet. Use a mirror... 1 out of 20 fantasies is the real me.”
[A light-hearted attitude is activated..]
[The mirror becomes two owners.]
“We just became two.”
Whoa whoa…
[Starlet's Season: Uses 20 Truths.]
[20A dog's mirror illusion surrounds the target..]
An incredibly large mirror filled the entire area..
Everyone was reflecting on Starlett's presence..
Sigh.…
Silk said, scattering seeds around..
“silk. Attack with plants.”
[A light-hearted attitude is activated..]
[Plants grow 30% faster and recognize allies..]
Starlett said.
“Okay then….”
“one person?”
“…what?”
“There's one more here.”
“……Silk, I think Adol is right. This guy….”
“You're pretty good at it?”
Slurp…
A man appeared out of thin air..
“You found me. Mahan, sneak attacks are my specialty..”
[A light-hearted attitude is activated..]
[When hiding, your presence becomes fainter, and you do not reveal your life until you begin an attack..]
[Sneak Strike critical damage increases by 50% when stealthed.]
Swish…
Karen said, roughly throwing her hat everywhere..
“Should I tell you too? Karen, knight..”
“…what?”
“I like fireworks, but I won't be using them today..”
“…why?”
“Conquest is lost. It was a gift from the owner so I think it would be sad to burn it..”
“What does it say?….”
“Then you can start?”
“No, it's up to me to go first..”
Starlett's apparitions moved in the mirror. Sting posture.
Sooooo…
Paaaat-!
[Starlet uses Illusion Dance.]
[The reality is mixed with the illusion to attack..]
[Illusions cause no damage.]
Sooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo-!
Phantoms holding out swords.
Each person passed through Karen. It felt like I was in a world of ghosts..
[Starlett uses a lightweight mirror.]
[20The truth of the dog begins to spin.]
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssss For…
the mirror started spinning.
“…My eyes hurt a little.”
“Don't worry, your whole body will be sore soon..”
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-!
A man-eating flower that grows quickly.
Wow!-!
[Silk Man-Eating Flower: Uses Vine Whip.]
[The man-eating flower will attack the target with its vine whip until it receives another command..]
Sigh.-!
Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssst-!
The vines stretched out like a whip and struck down Karen. However, the hit rate did not seem to be very high..
“Where to avoid everyone!”
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa…
My vision was dizzy as the ghosts in the mirror came out of the mirror and pretended to attack me..
Taking advantage of that opportunity, a vine grabbed Karen's ankle..
“Got it!”
Karen turned over and spun around with both arms raised..
“Wow... It's flying….”
Karen makes a forced expression and reacts as if she is on a boring amusement ride..
“Ugh… But I feel like I'm going to get motion sick.”
Now that she was defenseless, Starlett made a real attack..
Paaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Phantoms jumping out of the mirror all at once. And among them, the reality was mixed up..
pot-!
“Ahhh!”
Karen, with bright eyes, cut the vine as if she had been waiting for this moment and stabbed the sword towards Starlet's body..
Clink…
However, that wasn't his body..
“How did know?”
“Presence. But it's fake?”
“yes, it's fake.”
“Wasn't it real? It was definitely real….”
“It's both real and fake, the main body is here. I told you. I became two. As long as mirrors exist, you can never chase me. On the other hand, I could target you forever..”
“…What, that's not fair..”
The 20 Starlets Trapped in the Mirror Speak.
“The world is inherently unfair.”
“The world is inherently unfair.”
“The world is inherently unfair.”
Paaaaat-!
Once again, all the starlets in the mirror jumped out, and the vines that had multiplied took advantage of the opportunity to target her..
Karen spun violently this time..
Kaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Tsk….”
The attack she struck was an unexpected blow hidden in the darkness..
Pop… pop…
Cheeeeee…
A foul-smelling poison fell on the ground from the dagger of the assassin who introduced himself as Mahan..
Where the poison fell, a much larger area was corroded..
“You wielded such a dangerous thing.?”
“…Still relaxed. How long can this happen??”
“Leave me alone, I'm going to die soon. My lovely flowers will disintegrate, leaving only the eyes.?”
Sigh…
[Silk uses overgrowth.]
[Man-Eating Flowers grow to 150% of their growth limit.]
When I suddenly came to my senses and looked around, I saw huge flowers weighed down by the ceiling, unable to fully grow and taking up space..
silk said.
“They may be unlucky, but they're okay when they're colleagues. how is it? If you quietly open your eyes, I might save your life..”
Karen blurted out..
“…Like the investigators who were caught?”
“Did you see it? Yeah, what do you think? It's my work.”
Karen withdrew her grinning expression..
And, for the first time, I showed them an expressionless face..
“it was fun. Okay, now I'm going to count 10 seconds..”
“what?”
“What is he saying now?”
Karen left only her own words to say..
“10For a second, spit out everything you want to say or leave behind. Sometimes when it comes to me, I can tell it to others in front of the campfire..”
“…10Seconds? why….”
“10Kills everyone in seconds.”
That moment.
Whioooooooooooo…
What was suppressed in Karen’s body… No, the hidden murderous spirit came out all at once..
If life could be materialized, it would be a shock equivalent to a bomb exploding..
“this… this….”
“What, what?….”
Karen folded her fingers..
“ten… nine….”
Those who stood in front of Karen felt pain as if all their senses were being torn apart..
The instinct to survive tried to pull their bodies away from Karen, but it failed..
I need to run away.
I can't run away.
Because my legs won't fall.
Then you have to fight.
There's no other way but to fight.
I have to kill her.
That's how I can live.
The collapse of the senses soon led to the collapse of reason..
“this… Day… end.”
“I'm dying!”
Starlett's attack targeted Karen..
Paaaaat-!
Clang graaaang-!
Karen finds the real thing among countless illusions. But the truth quickly became a lie.
“Haha! you me….”
At that time, Karen's eyes turned to a specific mirror. It was a mirror with a real starlet on it..
“what…?”
Whoa whoa-!
Squeaky!
“Wow! how….”
Karen said, pulling Starlett out of the mirror..
“Your friends are glancing this way..”
“Kick… Still wrong. I am….”
[Starlett uses ego fragmentation.]
[The owner of the mirror scatters to all mirrors.]
“It's all fake and real.”
“I knew it.”
“what?”
Huaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
Once, Karen's sword drew a circle..
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
All the mirrors exploded at the same time.
“Wow!….”
When the world of mirrors collapsed, Starlet, whose upper and lower bodies were cut in half along with the mirror, rolled around on the floor..
Whirling-!
Wow!-!
[Silk uses Man-Eating Flower: Drain Vitality.]
[Man-Eating Flower binds the target and drains their life force until another command is received..]
Whirly Whirly-!
Vines flew from every flower..
There was no place for Karen to escape..
Churrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr-!
Karen is instantly wrapped up like a cocoon..
“It's time! Mahan!”
“saw.”
Mahan trying to stab a dagger into a cocoon.
Fuwaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“…uh?”
A sword came out of the cocoon and pierced Mahan's heart..
I can't see it, I can't hear it.
He accurately located Mahan’s position and struck first..
“Off….”
Squeak…
The cocoon was torn and Karen rushed in..
“Now, wait! I am this….”
Suddenly-!
Adol's head floating in the air.
When I actually counted 10 seconds, all three collapsed in an instant. Now it's silk's turn.
[Adol's Isiljigo loses its effect..]
“eww… Ahhhhh!”
Silk lost his senses out of fear that he too would lose his life..
[Silk uses cannibalistic flowers: asexual.]
[The man-eating flower will multiply and attack its surroundings until it receives another command..]
Silk attacked the surroundings while surrounded by flowers..
Kwaaang-!
“where are you!”
Kwaaaaang-!
“Where are you?!”
Quaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa-!
“Come out here! Monster!”
Karen was nowhere to be seen..
Only a glimpse of Starlet crawling on the floor is visible..
“Huh... Huh... where….”
at that time.
Kwaaaaang-!
The floor she stepped on broke and an arm stretched out from there..
“Wow….”
Kuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu…
As if grabbed by a vine, Silk's new form fell backwards, causing a concussion..
“ugh… eww… why… Why is it so strong?….”
Karen looked indifferently at the fallen Silk..
“Me, write me. If I were as strong as you, I would give my all..”
“no. Your owner will hate you.”
“master… I said?”
“okay.”
“You serve someone... ? No way, you….”
Karen made eye contact with her..
“How about it, I still want my eyes?”
“beautiful… eye….”
“…You can't do this. I'm going to use fire. There is no one watching….”
Sigh…
Someone grabbed Karen's ankles..
It was Starlet, crawling on the floor with her upper and lower body separated..
“It's not fair.….”
Karen said, taking her ankle out of his hand..
“The world is inherently unfair. like you said.”
Tuk…
Starlett's breath stopped, and Silk, on the verge of death, muttered..
“eye… beautiful.”
Grumbling…
her body was on fire.
It was not a hot fire that burned up in an instant without leaving even a trace of bone, but a fire that slowly melted away..
“Wow!-!”
“slowly… Die to ashes, with the evil inside.”
Karen went back the way she came up..
In a space where the smell of blood was slightly gone, she appeared again..
Tuk…
Tuk…
She shook off the dust that stuck to her hat and put it on just like before..
3The investigators raised their heads..
Karen grinned..
“Let's go home.”
