Chapter 305: [305] Plunderer Stand!
"This is—"
In an instant, something changed. The figure behind Kazumi felt different, and the silhouette behind her floated to her front.
Facing the approaching Stand, accompanied by her will—
She swung a punch fiercely!
Bang—
In an instant, she saw the dead apostle's head explode like a watermelon!
"What... is this? What's going on?"
She felt like she could control the figure that appeared behind her.
With her will, the pink figure slowly merged into her body and disappeared.
"Could this be... a Stand?"
Suddenly, she had this thought. Since she already had Ripple, having a Stand wouldn't be strange, right?
If that's the case...
Kazumi took a deep breath. With her will, the pink figure appeared and punched in front of her.
"It's a Stand!"
Kazumi was pleasantly surprised. She didn't expect this situation to unfold. However, she wondered about the abilities of her Stand.
Looking around, she found a random place to hide and began experimenting with her Stand's abilities.
Strength, speed, precision—all were excellent.
However, the Stand couldn't move more than five meters away from her, meaning its range was around C or D...
Everything else seemed to be at an A level.
The final point was the Stand's ability!
Each Stand had unique abilities, similar to superpowers.
Time stop, object restoration, death experience, string manipulation, rotation, and many more.
What Kazumi cared about most was—what would her Stand's ability be?
"Oh, finally found it!"
With this voice, a familiar one, a voice ran over: "Finally found you! What a strong bloody aura. I heard you encountered a dead apostle? Where is it? Where?"
"Uh... it's already dead."
Kazumi looked at the energetic senior with a twitching mouth. It's precisely because of this that Gray must find this person annoying.
Even though she's already this old, she acts like a child.
"Huh? Already dead?" Svin Glascheit couldn't believe it. "How did you do it?"
"Well."
"So amazing~ I remember your magecract is pretty average, right? How did you do it?" Svin exclaimed. He didn't expect his junior to become so strong, capable of fighting a Stand alone.
"Just like that, and it's done." Kazumi waved her fist, a bit puzzled as she shook her hand. "Something's strange, though."
Was her strength a bit too much?
What happened to her?
Her experience was relatively simple. She bumped into a dead apostle while out playing, went for the ritual sacrifice, and charged at the dead apostle. When she found she couldn't win, she ran away and sent a distress signal.
She was originally in London, the headquarters of the Clock Tower.
Reinforcements were arriving soon.
However, she didn't expect to defeat a dead apostle all by herself.
Back in her room, Kazumi clenched her fists. When she breathed, she felt her Ripple had become stronger.
"Not an illusion, right? Could it be the ability of my Stand?"
Plunder!
This was Kazumi's Stand ability.
By killing an enemy, she could plunder a part of the deceased's "little life energy." The enhanced strength was only due to the stronger Stand after the life energy became stronger.
Moreover—
Because of this, she could even see the situation of everyone's life energy!
Not only that, but she could also split her life energy to heal herself or others.
In age of gods, magus used the ambient leyline. Now, with the depletion of the leyline, magecraft's decline, and humans could only use their own energy. The availability of the leyline had decreased countless times.
Ripple was the energy of breathing.
Life energy's manifestation.
Then, the leyline was the breath of the planet.
If the leyline disappeared completely, it would be equivalent to the death of the planet.
The death of the planet.
However, that wasn't entirely the case. It just temporarily stopped breathing, like when humans held their breath. It was just that this time period was a bit long...
When a person's life energy was cut off, it was equivalent to losing their life, dying.
By giving a part of her life energy to another life, like a dying butterfly, it would recover and flutter again.
"A pretty nice ability." Lying on the bed, Kazumi's Stand brought her a drink and dinner.
Feeling the leisure of this moment, she lazily said, "By the way, it can also be used to deal with illusions... Illusions should have no life energy, right? Tomorrow, I'll discuss it with Professor El-Melloi."
Saying that, she suddenly stood up, feeling some movement in the cabinet next to her—
The next moment!
The cabinet door opened.
A hand reached out from inside.
"What is this—?" Kazumi's face turned pale, a bit startled.
Who could tell her when someone hid in her cabinet?
"Uh, whatever! Let's beat them half to death first!"
The Stand behind her suddenly appeared and punched the cabinet!
Bang—
The collision of fists!
The collision of Stands!
"What is this? Another Stand user?" Kazumi exclaimed in surprise. She didn't expect that shortly after awakening as a Stand user, she would encounter other Stand users besides herself!
"Look at you, so lively, and I'm relieved." A completely extended arm, the person behind the cabinet came out completely. This person's volume was something her small wardrobe couldn't contain.
Even if the wardrobe's size was doubled, it still couldn't fit this tall person.
But—actually, he did just come out from that cabinet.
"An illusion...?" Kazumi couldn't believe she was looking at the person in front of her.
"No, this is real." The man, Kazuya, took back his Stand, D4C. "I also awakened a Stand ability, one that can travel through the parallel world. So, I came to see my lovely sister."
Saying that, Kazumi looked at the Stand beside Kazuya and said, "Such a strong power. Is this your Stand?"
"Yes..."
After confirming several times that the person in front of her wasn't an illusion, Kazumi's eyes were a bit moist.
The intense life energy, even stronger than her, should not be fake.
In other words...
It's true!
Her brother did awaken the Stand's ability to travel through dimensions and came here.
