章 8: A soul that sparked hope (P.2) - Chapter 7
On the other hand, Aya, after seeing her arm swiftly move so quickly to slice off the neck of the guy in front of her, only had a blank expression on her face before it turned into a stern one.
She stood still for a moment as all of the other opponents jumped towards her in anger. They all tried nailing her by thrusting their blades into her vital spots. However, as soon as they all got close to the girl, she swiftly moved from her position while dodging all of the sharp weapons directed at her.
Her body was very fast, to the point where most of the assassins couldn't even understand how she dodged that impossible situation.
"Don't let her get away!"
One of the guys ordered from afar as he watched how the girl managed to move her body.
After Aya managed to slide between the legs of one of the guys, she quickly managed to balance her body before getting up and thrusting her dagger below the ribcage on the back of the assassin, right where the kidney was located.
"G-gaahhh!!!!"
The guy who got stabbed in the back cried as he saw his legs go completely numb from the pain he just fell into.
Even though all of these assassins with knives and swords were wearing leather armor, the girl managed to spot the hidden spots where she could thrust her knife easily.
And that's how two of them were easily taken down in a split second.
The rest of the guys were taken aback by the way this girl had suddenly turned. It was almost as if she had been acting innocent and scared the whole time. But to think she could precisely kill one after another so easily.
Aya continued her skillful movement while dodging any of the swords coming towards her until one of the assassins finally managed to get right behind her. He had his sword up as he was about to slash the girl in half.
Aya turned around and saw, in shock, the sword that was about to cut her down.
"You'll pay for thi—"
However, his body froze in half before a sword grew out of his stomach.
"W-what?!"
The guy who saw the sword slowly continue to grow out of his stomach spit out blood from his mouth in complete shock. When he looked at his back, he quickly realized that the one who had stabbed him in the back was one of his allies.
"Ghk!... W-why?....."
But before he could get an answer, he fell on his stomach, as the sword had completely ruined his insides.
Aya cautiously looked at the guy who had betrayed the group.
However, the same guy who had betrayed the group looked at his own sword before slicing up his own throat without any sort of hesitation. Then, in the same second, a ghostly figure emerged from its corpse before looking at Aya with a blank expression.
"....."
"You should pay attention to what is going on behind your back as well. You never know when someone might sneak up on you. Remember that you only have one life."
Hiroki spoke as he was looking at the girl in front of him.
Aya had a blank expression on her face before she looked down on her own hands, which were filled with the blood of all the humans that wanted to kill her. Even though she killed them, her hands could be seen shaking in realization of what she had done.
"I… I k-killed them…." Her soft yet trembling voice spoke as she was trying to get her adrenaline under control.
After seeing the kind of condition Aya was in, Hiroki thought for a moment before closing his eyes.
"Go clean up. I will deal with things here." He said to the trembling girl with a soft, yet calming voice.
Aya saw the emotionless Hiroki for a moment before nodding and then heading to a nearby river, where she would clean herself up.
Hiroki, on the other hand, looked at his surroundings and then used <Mind's force> in order to drag all of the dead bodies into one place.
After taking all of what could be considered valuable, he then buried all of the bodies without caring about the dead.
'So despite killing another human… I still can't feel anything…'
Hiroki thought to himself while looking at the pitiful dead bodies that were being buried in one big hole without any sort of respect. The ghost's face remained expressionless as his cold, crimson red eyes kept looking at the corpses.
