Rebuild World

Akira, who broke up with Carol, is on her way to Cheryl's base.

Ask after seeing how Akira looks like Alpha is in a good mood somehow.

"You seem in a pretty good mood, but you enjoyed talking to Carol that much?

I guess I wasn't aware of that. Akira asks Alpha back looking a little surprised.

"Do I look in such a good mood?

"Yeah. I look closely at Akira, so that's how I can tell."

'Right. Well, it sure was fun. I've heard so many stories about hunter operations I don't know. "

Ask Akira's honest thoughts and Alpha smiles gently.

'Yes. Good for you. Well, maybe I should gather some of those stories and tell Akira, too?

Alpha whispered gently to Akira to prevent Akira from approaching Carol in search of such a topic on the surface (for).

Akira answers with a few thoughts.

"Mm-hmm. Alpha is learning about the common sense of the East before the general knowledge of hunter operation. Alpha needs you first. I didn't even know which part of the eastern part of Kugamayama the city was in, and you're behind in your knowledge. '

"Okay."

Suddenly Akira grabbed the arm of a man on her side. Akira's purse was held in the man's hand.

The man has a surprise look on his face. Akira laughed in a good mood and snatched her purse back, kicking the man into the alley.

Akira's kicking feet were tapped (just) into the abdomen of a man who was not wearing fortified or protective clothing with the physical ability of the fortified clothes. Akira was adding and subtracting, but the man's painful hands are still serious. The man is rolling down the alley with a distressed look on his face.

Akira walks up to the man in a good mood when she looks happy and wears her purse. When the man in distress noticed Akira approaching, as a man, he was desperately quick, objectively slow for pain, pulling his pistol out of his nose and pointing it at Akira.

Akira laughed and kicked that pistol. A pistol out of a man's hand rolls down the alley. The hand of the man holding the pistol is broken bone and deformed into distortion (snoring) due to the impact of the kick. A man raised his voice in anguish due to severe pain.

Akira was in a good mood. Because it prevented Arnab from stealing the money he had earned from his life without exposing it to the likes of the time he stole his wallet. I didn't have to ask Alpha to tell me about the presence of a man, and I could have noticed the presence of a man on my own. Akira was experiencing the kind of accomplishment that served as a snowflake.

That's why Akira was able to get it done with a loose attack that cared for a man's life, even though he tried to steal the money his opponent had earned by putting a gun to himself. If I wasn't in that good mood, Akira would have already killed a man. This is the alley of Slam Street. It's a place where there's no wonder there's one more body. Apart from Akira's mood, there's no other element of Akira's hesitation to kill a man.

The man gives Akira a frightened look. Akira giggles and talks to the man in a good mood.

"You're unlucky to be after me."

Akira kicked the guy again after saying that it was sunny somewhere. The kicked man rolled over to the ground in the alley with a small scream.

As for Akira, this was the story that was done, the story that was done. I became stronger. I don't want to be exposed anymore. Gaining that feeling, he tries to return his heel to the surface.

But I hear voices overshadowing that finished story coming from behind Akira. A man falling in an alley vomits a curse whining in pain.

"... it's not the same story..."

Akira stopped her leg. The colors showing good mood had disappeared from Akira's expression.

Viola's office is located in one of the rooms of the building, which is countless in the subdivision of the city of Kugamayama. There was Viola and Corbe.

Viola sitting on the couch in the room speaks to Corbe in a voice that looks in a good mood.

"Why don't you just sit over here and not be in a place like that?

Sitting a short distance from the viola, Corbe clearly tells the inviting voice of the viola.

I don't like it.

"You're not getting along."

Even if you look somewhere more alert than Corbe's chill, Viola smiles (cheeks) without compromising her mood.

Corbe sees the viola, who seems in a good mood, and speaks warily of getting caught up in something that is not even busy.

"So, what did you call me for? You didn't like the contents of my report? You're not gonna pay me back, are you?

"That's not true. The report was useful. I just want to ask you a few straight questions. You know, what it's like to actually see that store."

"I should have written that in my report, too. You haven't read it?

"I read it. But even if it's the same, it's quite different from a simple statement and a verbal explanation. Even if it's a little negotiation, or if it's a conversation that involves a call or text message from an information terminal, you'll meet and negotiate directly with the other person, right? That's all the information you get when you meet someone straight. At least that's what I value. You know what I mean?

Hired by crooks. Corbe answers by making such an excuse to himself.

"... so what am I supposed to talk about?

"A lot. So let's start with Cheryl."

Viola listens to Corbe as she smiles (cheeks) with luscious pleasure.

It is no coincidence that Corbe visited Cheryl's shop. Viola asked me to look into Cheryl's shop. The request from Viola was also fairly rewarding, so I had a bit of a problem but took on the request.

Corbe's participation in Levin's consultation came at the request, a pretext in case it was revealed that it was a request from Viola. Plus, it's a precaution to avoid getting caught up in Viola's business. Viola is quite a well-known being, for better or worse. Many people are wary that when Viola moves flashy, things happen that are not busy. I've never been more alert.

Corbe answered Viola's question and told her many things. Most of it was the same as the report I had already given Viola, but some of it was something that Corbe did not mention in the report because he decided it didn't matter.

Viola listens to Corbe in an interesting way. Corbe hangs out with Viola and knows that look has nothing to do with the inside. I also know that listening to a good story with a very interesting look, listening to a very interesting story with a good look that doesn't matter, can be neither. I know it's a disguise to manipulate the value of the information to Viola's convenience.

Many people are manipulated by Viola to determine the value of the information that serves as a basis for their behavior and move as Viola wishes. Corbe knew that. Corbe is careful talking to Viola. Doubting it was even on Viola's palm.

"... that's my impression. I think Cheryl, the owner of that store, the boss of those guys, is quite a person. He doesn't seem to have that Akira on his hands, and he wouldn't be just a kid with a good face. My guess, isn't that shop going to be pretty thriving?

"It's very highly regarded."

"It's my subjectivity. If you care, meet him yourself and judge for yourself. First of all, why would Viola care about a store like that? There will just be one more artifact agency that is some in Slam Street. Because Akira's involved in that store?

"Speaking of which, wasn't there Akira in that store?

"I didn't see him when I went. Maybe he was hiding somewhere. That room had a ton of white sheets hanging out, so it's possible he was behind it. I don't even know the truth."

"Yes. Well, I have a lot of things, too. I'll just tell you that a lot of people want information on new and increased commercial enemies. No wonder, right?

"... right"

Corbe sees behind Viola's answer a heap of other reasons for hiding. Corbe doesn't know if that's a hallucination. It may be a mistake, but there is no way to be sure.

"... If I'm done for, I'm going home. Let me know if you need anything else.... I'll check, but the artifacts I bought at that store yesterday are good for me, right?

"Of course. That's a reward from me. Do as you please. If you say so in good faith, I suggest you simply replace it with gold. I wouldn't recommend taking the artifact to the hunter's office. If you get used to such hunter behavior, you won't be able to go back to being a legitimate hunter, will you?

Corbe answers with a little viola.

"Hmm. I'm on my own."

"Of course you are."

Viola replied with a smile. Corbe left Viola's office in silence, distorting his expression with a little remorse.

There was a slightly louder noise of the door closing as Corbe closed the door a little harder. (Sniffles) Knock on Viola as she looks at the door.

"At that rate, it's going to be hard to get back into legitimate hunter operations. It's a way of life, too."

It was Viola who turned the reward into a relic of the old world, not money, in order to make Corbe take his own request. Viola was adding to Corbe's desire to return to her rightful hunter.

A call request arrives at Viola's information terminal. Viola takes the information terminal and answers lovingly.

"It's me.... Yep. I already gave you the information.... That's not true. My job is to circulate information until I encourage the act. Not until we actually get into action. Of course, I can do that, but I'll get a separate fee.... wait if you don't want to. I flushed it thoroughly, so I'm in it.... Yep. Bye."

Viola cuts the call and squeals.

"I wonder what will happen? I'm looking forward to it."

Anticipating various results, Viola laughed with pleasure.

A man trying to steal his wallet from Akira is rolling onto the ground in the alley. Akira approaches the man with a rugged look. The man expressed his fear of the approaching Akira more intensely on its face than the pain caused by the fracture of his hand.

The man tries to retreat to escape, but the fracture and abdominal pain and the fear of being killed had made it a very slow move. It is impossible to escape.

Akira asks the man in a quiet voice as she comes to the side of the man (by his side).

"What do you mean, different story?

The man desperately begs forgiveness, not answering Akira's question.

"Or give me a break! It was my fault! Please!"

Akira puts a gun to the man and asks the man again.

"Answer my question. What do you mean, different story?... If you want to talk, I'll split up some of my recovery pills.... If you're dead and you don't want to talk, die."

Akira's mood had deteriorated considerably. If a man did not answer Akira's question, Akira would kill the man, even if that was not a state where he could speak in earnest (decent) due to the confusion caused by fear, etc.

A man desperately stops Akira in front of the confusion.

"Wow, okay! Talk! Talk! I'll talk! I'll talk, so stop!

When Akira lowers her gun, she takes out a box of healing pills and takes out just a little of the contents. And ignoring the confused man, he forced the recovery pill into the man's mouth. He grabbed the man's broken hand and forcefully aligned the broken bone.

Akira forced the broken bone to move, so the man distorted his expression as he screamed in severe pain. The man's expression turns to surprise and bewilderment. The painkillers helped relieve pain in Akira's stomach and hands. Until earlier, his hands, which had been deformed into distortions (snoring) and forced to be shaped by Akira, were also slightly but starting to move.

The man was pretty confused that Akira really split the recovery pills. But the confusion also disappeared when Akira pointed the gun at the man again.

Akira really split the recovery pills. I mean, it would really kill a man. A man starts talking in a hurry. Before Akira decided she had broken her promise and pulled the trigger, she could barely start talking.

"... I bought the information. You have a lot of money, and I was talking about an idiot who easily gets his money stolen by a kid's sled.... Even though I chased the sled after realizing that the money had been stolen, the other hunters in the back shield told me that it was just a little awesome for the child hunter as well, and that it was a cluttered fish that panicked and ran away.... It's easy to steal money, and even if you find it, you can get rid of it. It was that kind of duck info..."

Akira had been caught off guard a while back and a girl named Arna stole her wallet. Unfortunately, I couldn't get my stolen money back. Because Katsuya sheltered Aruna.

It was a coincidence that Aruna met Katsuya, and Katsuya believed Aruna's explanation that she didn't remember but was being chased by Akira.

The difference in power with Katsuya at that time was hopeless, and Akira pulled back though unwillingly. If Alpha hadn't stopped him, he would have stayed in battle and had a high chance of being killed.

I remember that time. Akira aggravates her mood once and for all. The expression turns into something colder and colder, something close to a faceless expression that makes you feel dark anger.

A frightened man hastily excuses himself for Akira's condition.

"Oh, it's not me! The informer! That's what the informant said!

Akira asks in a quiet voice.

"How did you find me? Did they even show you my picture?

"... he told me about his hair, his back length, and his brief appearance.... Later, they showed me some pretty blurry pictures"

"Is that why you find me?

"So, you made a mistake, didn't you? I mistook you for that duck."

"It's a different story. That's what you said. You wouldn't say that if you didn't think I was that duck, would you?

"Oh, that's..."

A man gets stuck in words. Akira looks at the man in silence. A man who can no longer tolerate fear speaks with a distorted expression.

"Wow, I'm sorry. I was fooled by such an informer, grabbed (one) false information, and ended up like this at the end of the quote. So, give me a break."

Akira stares at the man with a gun to his mouth. The man looks at Akira with a pulled look.

Akira suddenly unloaded the gun. A palliative (mostly) color floats on a man's expression. But the relief (mostly) soon disappeared.

Akira pushes the man hard against the alley wall when she grabs the man's neck and forces him to stand. Akira speaks in a bottom-cold voice without looking at the man's face to a man with a distressed look on his face.

"First, I'll tell you. You are not being deceived by an informant. I was certainly an idiot who would easily get his money stolen by a kid's sled. It was a cluttered fish that escaped just because it was a little awesome for the other hunters behind him. Definitely. That information fits."

Akira continues to talk as she peeks into the back of the man's eyes as she stares at the man's face in fear.

"But I'm not going to let that end. The matter is not over yet. I don't know where you bought that information from, but tell that informant to add that the matter isn't over yet. You get it?

The man managed to snort (groan) again and again while Akira grabbed him by the neck. Akira takes her hand off the man. The man sat down on the ground coughing.

Akira returns her heel again and leaves the man.

The man is coughing and breathing. When I happened to see him on the ground, there was a pistol rolling there kicked in by Akira. I try to pick up that pistol as I stand up nicely.

The moment the man's hand tried to reach the pistol, the bullet (beginning) was blown away as the pistol was destroyed along with the gunfire. When the man looked at the gunshots reflexively, Akira was pointing the AAH assault gun towards the man with no expression. Akira fired a man's pistol.

The man screamed and fled the scene, disappearing into the back of the alley.

Akira shuts up and puts the gun down. Very grumpy. He had the same look on his face when he was floating just before he killed each other with Katsuya.

Alpha speaks in front of Akira, standing in a position where Akira's sight shows Alpha in a large way.

"Akira. Take a deep breath"

Take a deep breath as Akira told Alpha. Take a deep breath over and over again. Repeating his deep breath temporarily, Akira's expression regained some calm.

Alpha smiles gently to calm Akira.

"Calm down?

'... oh......................... sorry'

It's okay.

Alpha smiles without showing how she cares. Akira exhales heavily in a slightly depressed manner.

"I was going to cut it off."

In Akira, that matter was a story that ended once. At least that's what Akira thought. If time had passed without anything like this, it would have been really over.

But due to someone's willingness to continue the story, the story turned into an interruption, not an end, among Akira, and a resumption.

Talk like Alpha cares about Akira.

'I think you should leave without going back to Cheryl's today. If Akira is in such a grumpy state, she won't be able to rub it, will she?

'... no, I'll just show my face for once. I told you I'd show my face even if I was late.... and I could ask Cheryl for a little something'

The way things were handled was floating around Akira's brain, which was making her expression look rude.

As Cheryl works in her own room, she sounds knocking on the door.

It's open.

Alicia opens the door and tells Cheryl.

Boss, Mr. Akira's here.

Cheryl looks at Alicia. There's only Alicia there. Cheryl asks strangely.

"What about Akira?

"I'm talking to Elio. I'll be right there. So, it's a little hard to say..."

Alicia says with a slightly uneasy look.

"... I don't know, but Akira's in such a bad mood. Be careful."

I guess Alicia asked Elio to hold back Akira just a little, just to tell Cheryl beforehand how Akira was doing. Cheryl realizes about it and makes his expression look worse.

Akira enters misplaced with Alicia leaving the room. Cheryl, who saw how Akira was doing, painstakingly avoided her face catching on.

Even from Cheryl's point of view, Akira is certainly in a pretty bad mood. Akira had a look that forced her to suppress it after realizing she was grumpy. That's the look on your face pretending to be the way it always is and failing to do so.

(This is definitely creepy (first of all)... I'm glad you told me in advance)

Cheryl greeted Akira with a smile (ho) as usual, sweating cold inside.

Cheryl sits across the table with Akira. Cheryl was desperate to devise a response to Akira with some bitter air.

Cheryl doesn't want Akira to hate him for his position or his mood. Akira is the back shield of Cheryl and his party and the back shield of Cheryl's position within the party. Cheryl's position collapses when that Akira hates him. Akira is Cheryl's source of peace of mind and confidence, and Cheryl's mentally attached counterpart. When Akira abandons her, Cheryl's heart breaks.

Usual Akira would manage to say something that would make Cheryl slightly misjudge Akira a little angry. If Cheryl has said something that would mislead Akira, you just have to explain it thoroughly and solve the misunderstanding. If Cheryl has said something to offend Akira, you can honestly apologize. That shouldn't lead to a fatal deterioration of Akira's relationship. Cheryl thought so.

But Cheryl couldn't treat Akira as she usually does. There was a feeling that slight misunderstandings and causative events might trigger a fatal deterioration of the relationship with Akira. Cheryl was in the mood to step into the minefield.

(... should I keep my mouth shut? Should we keep it quiet until Akira's in a good mood? So, but what if that response pisses Akira off? You should actively listen to Akira and explore the possibility of getting rid of Akira..., taking care not to ask her anything unnecessary? You don't even know what the mines are? After all......, no......)

Cheryl kept thinking about Akira's response and was beginning to neglect anything else. The look on Cheryl's face draws a little bit more.

Akira has a lot of blunt spots, but I was able to notice how Cheryl is doing on the boulder. I can also say that Cheryl is running out of room.

Seeing Cheryl, who was losing his spare time, Akira, on the contrary, reclaimed some spare time. Akira speaks.

"Cheryl."

"Ha, yes!?

Cheryl made a panicked voice as if she had been stuck by surprise.

Akira speaks as carefully as possible to speak as she always does.

"... uh, what, a little something, and I'm in a pretty bad mood right now. I know that myself. But I'm not angry with Cheryl or anything like that. And I'm going to be careful, but I might unconsciously hit Cheryl and the others with spiciness because I'm in a bad mood. Apologize first. Bad. Flush it gently, if you can, then."

Akira said so and lowered her head gently to Cheryl.

Cheryl smiles kindly at Akira as soon as she returns to me after a slightly surprised look. I managed to regain my composure and at the same time regained my usual wisdom. And I urge Akira to talk to me somehow, thinking that if I turn to the listener, I would be unlikely to buy Akira's unhappiness.

"Okay. I'm not saying I can't, but if it makes it easier for you to talk to someone, I'll be with you as much as you want, right?

"... bad. Just give me the feeling."

Guess the seriousness of something that Cheryl put Akira in a bad mood from Akira's attitude.

(... sounds like a pretty deep-rooted problem. If I was able to solve the problem well, my credit from Akira would likely be considerably higher... but if I was involved poorly without knowing anything, I'd be fine with a big burn (oh burn))

Cheryl answers without showing how she cares at all.

"No, I said something unsolicited. Instead, don't hesitate to say anything else."

When Cheryl answers that, he speaks as Akira recalls.

"That's right. I wanted to ask Cheryl and the others."

Akira takes out the information terminal and manipulates it a little, then puts the information terminal on the table to show Cheryl the display screen. The screen shows Arna. It's the Suri girl who stole her purse from Akira.

"I want you to let me know if you see her."

Cheryl takes a peek at Arna on the screen. Judging by the outfit. Probably a slum city dweller, but not looking bad. Polish it and it will glow. At least that's what Cheryl looked like.

Cheryl had feelings that Akira didn't want to be too aware of asking herself to look for other girls even though she didn't show interest in her nakedness. Cheryl turns away from it and confirms it to Akira as such.

"Should I find her? It would be easier to find her if you shared a lot of information about her, including her name and her relationship with Akira."

"I don't know your name. And I don't want you to look for her. I want you to let me know if you see her in Cheryl and the others' normal lives. That's about it."

"Uh, but Akira's looking for her, isn't she? What will Akira do if we find her?

Cheryl asked Akira after a little in-depth reading because Akira did not talk about her relationship with Arna.

If Akira is looking for Arna in a good way, she will need to be politely brought in not to be rude. On the contrary, if you are looking for it in a bad way, it would be fine to treat it somewhat rough. Either way, finding Arna and bringing her in should be more appreciated by Akira.

But the means by which Cheryl and the others bring Arnah need to be inquisitive. Assuming Akira was looking for Arna as her own benefactor, if Cheryl and the others brought Arna in by a rather forceful means, it would undoubtedly damage Akira's mood.

Akira answers Cheryl's questions extremely briefly.

"Kill"

Akira herself, who said so, had a slightly surprisingly cold voice.

Cheryl's smile froze.

Exhales a little as Akira calms herself down. And continue to make excuses somewhere.

"... that's the sleigh who stole my purse. I scratched the money I made on my life, so I'm going to kill him if I see him."

"Oh, really?"

"... and then stop trying to force me to look for him and bring him in. I don't know if he's a friend or an ass, but a few hunters are protecting him. At least as good as me, probably a hunter of strength on it. I went after him when I realized I'd been stuck with a sled, but the hunter stopped me and I couldn't get my money back."

"... more than Akira, is it?

"Oh. So stop it"

Akira fully admitted that the hunters were stronger than herself. Cheryl understood on top of that that that Akira was not willing to use and crush herself to find Arna. Cheryl is happy about it, but I don't think it makes sense if we don't help Akira somewhat. Showing Akira the value of Cheryl's use is important to Cheryl and the others.

Akira is helping Cheryl and the others because Akira is Cheryl's lover. Cheryl's men would be a little relieved if they could show any other reason. Cheryl's men are also afraid that Akira will cut them off.

Cheryl answers with a serious look.

"Okay. I'll tell everyone to be careful from me. How do I contact you? When I say I can tell them as soon as I see them, they don't all have information terminals. I intend to make an effort to be able to communicate it as soon as possible…"

"No, you don't have to hurry. Put it away for a few days, I was around that time that day, all you have to do is tell me about that extent. Maybe he's not around anymore."

Cheryl is a little surprised to hear about Akira. Akira's voice when she said she was going to kill had a cold, intense hostility. But from what I've heard about Akira now, there's a verse that I still consider good if I can't find her.

(Akira's sincerity is unknown, but it looks like Akira should do what she says. Maybe something is grinding Akira. Stepping poorly in there......, too bad it's still early for me)

Cheryl hasn't gotten close enough with Akira until she can get inside Akira. Cheryl understood it again and broke his expression slightly.

Akira sees how Cheryl is and apologizes for making a slight mistake.

"... sorry. I was going to be careful, but I knew you'd hit eight. Bad."

Cheryl manages to answer with a normal smile on her face.

"No, never mind. It's for everyone about the time I'm in a bad mood. If you're distracted by hitting me eight times, go ahead. Instead, let me sweeten you plenty later, okay?

"... uh... well, do whatever you want"

Akira replied bitterly to Cheryl, who laughed a little pranky (naughty).
