Chapter 58: The Brutal Demon
🕑 Added 2020-07-26 16:16:46 +0000 UTCShiori quickly left my lap and narrowed her eyes. “Asahi-kun?”
“Are you two asking for my permission?”
Saeko and Shiori denied with a shake of their head.
“Since you are our man.”
“We will leave the decision to you~.”
“You two…” I shook my head and got off the Humvee. “Let’s check it out.”
“Um. Maybe it's a milf who needs help. Don’t go Ranc—”
“I know, sheesh. You are hellbent on stopping me from going that route!”
Shiori snickered and pressed her hand on my face. “I know what kind of man you are.”
“You sure do.”
Saeko pushed us and pointed at the supermarket a few buildings ahead.
“Action first?”
I drew out my daggers and tried coating them with my mana. The usual enchantment activated as soon as the tingly sensation left my hands and wrapped the dagger in a blue gleam. However, this time, an additional white glow accompanied it.
Life element—deadly to anything possessing the darkness element including the undead.
Saeko and Shiori wielded their magic swords and rushed forth. Refusing to be outdone, I also rushed and outpaced them easily.
Tracing an arc through the air, the glowing dagger diagonally slashed apart an undead’s head.
“Great!” Saeko exclaimed and beheaded an undead, her movements filled with grace, and the droplets of blood on her face further enhanced it.
“It feels good!” She went on a beheading spree while her sword acquired a black aura around it.
Shiori, however, stayed in the back and sent wind blades with every slash of her sword. The wind blades weren't very offensive since she tried to save up on mana.
This was the reason I gave her a magic sword with the wind element; it perfectly suited her carefree personality. ‘Wind’ was the only element for someone like her.
Saeko though will awaken the water element. Always calm and reserved but when provoked, she would lash out to end the troubles.
It was fun analyzing people like this. Kinda the reason I used this element based magic system.
Although killing them from a distance was fun, the sensation of slicing their skin was addicting as well.
Killing our way through the crowd, we entered the supermarket.
*Roar!*
The roar stopped us in our tracks. I stopped and listened to the grotesque sounds as if someone’s skull cracked into pieces coming from inside.
Another mutated undead?
No, it wasn’t.
My onee-san senses were screaming.
“I will take a look.” Shiori dashed past the door and froze.
“Shiori?” Saeko followed her and froze beside her. “Gross…”
What the hell?
I also entered the supermarket. “Bloody hell!”
Not a joke. It was truly a bloody hell with mushy matter and blood scattered on the walls. The counters and shelves were flipped over, burying the headless corpses of the undead. In the corner, a lamp flickered ominously, giving glimpses of the back of a blue-haired woman holding up an undead with only its head.
The undead was unable to even scream as she used her black metal gauntlet to squeeze its head.
She whirled her head toward us, showing violet pupils hidden behind a red demonic mask. That gaze was someone who had no sense of reasoning left, only the desire to kill.
She had spiky black armored gauntlets on her arms.
Sayo Hitsugi—the nurse onee-san from Triage X, the same author who worked on Highschool of the Dead.
That meant Nao was also from Triage X. The teacher of the protagonist's class.
Sayo rushed at us with the intention to kill. Right now, she must be in a heightened state from D99 Virus.
She had superhuman strength in this state. Someone that could kill me. Fear of death—just what I wanted to awaken my element.
“Saeko, Shiori, let me do it.”
I squeezed the hilt of daggers and charged. Tilting sideways to dodge her claws, I grasped her wrist clad in armored gauntlet and threw her in reverse. She crashed into the floor, cracking the floor a little.
I wasn’t holding back at all. Yet, she dug her claws in my arm and bounced back to her feet. Before she threw me to Hell, I kicked her leg. She bent forward, giving me the chance to slash apart her mask.
The mask fell off and her beautiful face twisted in agony was revealed. She growled like a beast and shoved her fist in my stomach. A fierce impact twisted my guts and all the oxygen packed in my lungs was spat out.
“Asahi-kun!”
I rammed my knee into her abdomen, hurling her back a few steps.
*Ding!*
—You learned a new skill ‘Physical Resistance.
[—Physical Resistance (F-Rank): Reduces the damage inflicted from physical attacks by 5%.]
Sayo’s strength was higher than mine by a large margin, enough to learn a new skill. My 100 defense saved me or I would be injured.
“I’m fine.”
I placed the daggers in my inventory. It was time to demonstrate the martial arts I learned before.
It’s gonna be a tough fight.
