Chương 45: CHAPTER 45 – WHERE IS THAT GUY NOW?
Mumei is extremely sensitive to the aura of Kabane.
Even humans who haven't fully transformed into Kabane, as long as the virus is injected into their bodies, Mumei can sense a faint aura during the transformation process.
When Ikoma transformed into a Kabane, Mumei immediately sensed it.
This demonstrates just how sensitive Mumei is to the aura of a Kabane. Perhaps this is an ability that can only be developed after becoming a Kabaneri.
However, in Ikoma's current state, Mumei couldn't sense any trace of the Kabane aura from his body.
Regardless of what others may think, Mumei believed his words.
Ikoma had indeed returned to being human. And among the people she knew who could accomplish such a feat, there was only one.
"Only that person could have done it…"
After all, not long ago, that person had done something similar.
Therefore, Mumei had reason to believe that Fang Li had also eliminated the Kabane virus within Ikoma's body.
No, to be more accurate, she should say that Fang Li had killed it.
By killing the part of Ikoma's body that had transformed into a Kabane, Fang Li had allowed him to return to being human.
"Not only the Kabane virus in the process of transformation but even the fully transformed Kabane virus as well?"
Actually, strictly speaking, it can only be considered fully transformed after completely becoming a Kabane.
Entities like Kabaneri, which exist between humans and Kabane, can only be regarded as halfway transformed, not much different from the pregnant woman who was bitten by a Kabane before.
So, Fang Li could still kill the virus that had only partially transformed and bring Ikoma back to being human.
If it were a fully transformed Kabane, Fang Li probably wouldn't be able to do anything.
Because that would be a complete Kabane with no trace of humanity left in them.
If it was a Kabaneri with a part still human, by killing the Kabane part, only the human part would remain, allowing the Kabaneri to revert back to being a human being.
But if it were a fully transformed Kabane, by killing the "Kabane" part, it would be considered completely killing the Kabane, and it would be impossible for that Kabane to revive and turn itself back into a human.
Ultimately, the Mystic Eyes of Death Perception can only guide objects towards death, not as an ability to save.
However, based on the facts, Fang Li did save two people using his power that directly causes death.
With this thought in mind, Mumei suddenly had an idea.
"If Ikoma can turn back into a human, then maybe I…"
As soon as this thought emerged in Mumei's mind, she was startled by her own thinking and vigorously shook her head.
"No! No, it's not possible! I can't!"
That's right.
Mumei couldn't do it.
It's not that Mumei couldn't turn back into a human.
Since Ikoma can turn back into a human with his remaining human parts, it naturally follows that Mumei, who is also only partially transformed into a Kabane, can also become human again.
However, if she were to become human again, Mumei would lose something very important.
Something crucial to Mumei.
"If I become human again, then I won't be able to fight!"
Fighting is the only function that Mumei has been given since becoming a Kabaneri, and it can be considered her current purpose for survival.
If she loses this purpose…
"Then, I will absolutely be abandoned…"
Fear begins to grow in Mumei's heart. It is an emotion that arises from not wanting to be abandoned. But against this fear, a hopeful feeling also begins to emerge in Mumei's heart.
"To become human again…"
It is a small hope that she had never considered before.
However, this small hope is immediately obliterated by Mumei.
Instantly, Mumei's inner turmoil becomes incredibly complex, and she stomps her foot, expressing her anger.
"It's all that guy's fault!"
That's right.
It's all that guy's fault.
If it weren't for him, she wouldn't be so anxious.
"That guy must be held accountable for his actions!"
With this idea in mind, Mumei glares at Ikoma.
"What… What are you doing?" Ikoma trembled and spoke without any courage in his voice. "I… I'm telling you, I'm not a Kabane anymore. If you attack me like before, I will definitely be seriously injured."
"If you don't want to be hit, then answer my question honestly," Mumei says in an annoyed tone. "Where is that guy now?"
"That guy?" Ikoma is first taken aback and then hesitates for a moment before cautiously asking, "Are you referring to Fang Li?"
"Who else besides him?" Mumei says directly. "Quickly tell me where he is. I'm going to talk to him!"
Hearing this, Ikoma opens his mouth, but he couldn't utter a single word.
Seeing Ikoma like this, Mumei furrows her brow and stares straight at him, saying, "You're not trying to protect him, are you?"
Ikoma doesn't answer and remains silent. Seeing this, Mumei's brow furrows even deeper, and even the onlookers start questioning.
"Ikoma," Yomokawa Ayame says somewhat concerned, "Has something happened to Fang Li-San?"
Yomokawa Ayame's words cause Konochi Kurusu and Araka Kibito to exchange a glance and they both gaze at Ikoma.
Konochi Kurusu even questions, "What exactly has happened?"
Ikoma's expression immediately becomes troubled, as if he doesn't know how to express himself.
This infuriates Mumei.
"Say something!" Mumei says angrily. "Could it be that you've done something to him?"
"I haven't!" Ikoma reflexively retorts, then helplessly continues, "I don't even know what happened myself. I also don't know."
"What?" Everyone is taken aback.
"I only remember that my body suddenly became very weak, and my throat was very dry. Then, my consciousness became blurred," Ikoma's tone is filled with uncertainty as he says, "After that, it seems that Fang Li came to see me in the compartment and said a few things to me, but my consciousness was so hazy that I couldn't hear clearly. When I woke up, I found that I had turned back into a human."
"However, among the things, Fang Li said to me, there was one sentence that I remember," Ikoma's expression tightens.
"He said that he is about to leave."
"Leave?" Yomokawa Ayame and the entire group are completely astonished when they heard this.
Meanwhile, Mumei widens her eyes for a moment, then suddenly turns her head and rushes into the forest at the fastest speed.
In the open space, a commotion gradually spreads.
