The Branded Female Fencer

The Alphilis run after the battle. The time is already late at night. Though the inn became noisy for a moment at the sound of a broken window, are the travelers already in deep sleep or do they not want to get involved? Happily it didn't make that much noise.

Alphilis and the others were running through the town where they fell asleep, following the trail of battle.

"The white moon is full today. Bright and helpful."

"And yet..."

See the bodies of Aerial lined up on the ground. The number was gradually becoming unusual.

"This is my 16th now. How smart is he?

"What's more amazing than that, it's all been stabbed in the steeple with one blow. It's horrible."

Maple gives a sober rating. Look, aren't you a little shaken up?

"This much skill, even compared to our leader, Lady Tsuko, which is ultimately better... conversely, that these people also need to put in this much personnel to punish that girl. How horrible."

"If you're calm about that?

"There it is!

When Lisa screamed, the girl was fighting on the roof of a private house. The way the blood that danced in the universe lit up on the moon and fought against the backdrop of the full moon was a vivid sight as if it had plucked out a single painting. The girl was taking that life one after the other, without ever hitting against the enemy that was coming at her. It was like watching a dance where victory or defeat was decided. Seeing people's lives go away too easily doesn't seem very real.

Every time a girl moves one hand, one life is definitely scattered. Fighting opponents, even if they know they're going to die, don't even look as if they're begging her to die.

"What a way to fight..."

Alphilis was whining unexpectedly. I thought it was beautiful when I saw how Aerial fought, but the way the girl fought was even more than Aerial in her artistry, she was just scared. It just seems like a reaper is dancing under the moon. It's extra scary because the reaper is still beautiful. The light of the white moon reflects on silver hair, even divine in some ways. If all death is brought about so beautifully, it even makes me wonder if many would want death.

And the number of enemies surrounding the girl was five left. More than 30 people would already be dead at will. But they still didn't stop the fight, as five strike simultaneously from different directions, but as the girl twirls and rotates on the spot, blood erupts from the throats of the three. The girl tied an Aerial hand sword to the sturdy wire she had planted and used it as a medium range weapon.

A dagger is already stabbed in the face of the two men involved. Both the unintentionally glanced man's neck and the girl cut him into a single letter, and the only man he could reveal had his flank stabbed against his back from behind. When the man let go of his hand weapon without power, the girl still cut off her neck and left when she left. To the speed of that slaughter, it was so much so that after the man fell, the blood erupted towards heaven as it had forgotten.

"Awesome."

Alphilis had accidentally divulged his thoughts. Next to it, they are all blue. This was the first time everyone had seen a cold kill so far.

Even when it comes to killing, its nature is varied. Hate, resentment, jealousy, or in the exaltation of battle, or for your own pleasure. All in common is that there is human emotion there. But it was the first time everyone had ever seen the act of "just killing". There was no emotion whatsoever in the way the girl dancing in front of me was killed. Doesn't the girl have any emotions? If so, all life and death will be equal before the girl. Everyone was terrified of it.

In it, only Alphilis and Lisa had slightly different feelings.

"That's sad, that girl."

"Yeah, really"

Unexpectedly what two people leak with someone. And then the girl who finished killing it all jumps off the roof of the building. The leap from the third floor, the girl did it without bitterness.

"(With all that fighting, I've barely bathed in returning blood)"

Maple realizes the fact that she is invisible and fearful. With all this skill, assassinations would be possible, for example, when you go out with a friend and take off your seat for a little while.

"(Ideal form as an assassin. I can't believe I've seen people like this before. Am I going anytime soon?

While the maple is anxious, the girl slowly approaches the Alphilis and the others.

"You guys, why did you leave the room?

"I'm worried about you..."

"Extra care."

The girl answers without an island to attach. And when I sighed, I pointed the blade at the Alphilis and the others.

"What do you do?

I'm going to kill you now.

Everyone seemed to hear breathing in the words. Because once the girl targeted me, I didn't feel comfortable going home alive.

"Why?"

Among other things, Lisa answers calmly. But the girl is only faceless, or pretending,

"They know who I am. I can't let them live. I've been doing that ever since."

"We helped you, didn't we?

"I don't necessarily owe you back. Some people burn their homes to the people they help. That's what I mean."

The girl re-grips the knife. Lisa came forward the moment she put her weight forward to take a step forward.

"No, you are inconsistent"

"Where?

"If you're really going to kill me, I'm just going to pretend to thank Lisa and the others for what they did here, and I'm just going to have to bump Lisa and the others after they fall asleep, aren't I?

The girl doesn't answer. But I don't even move. That's why Lisa feels her opinions are being targeted. The girl is faceless, but perhaps confused by her actions. And he said he didn't know what caused it. This is not Lisa's ability as a sensor, but Lisa's insight into observing something called human for a long time.

"I declare that you will not do it, but on the contrary kill it from the front. For an assassin, isn't that a serious act?

"... what are you trying to say?

The moment the girl reacted to her words, Lisa was convinced that her reading was hitting. And I think this will convince you.

"It's not like you don't have feelings. You're probably confused yourself."

Lisa doesn't miss the fact that the girl's faceless expression nearly collapsed for a moment.

"What the hell do you want to do? I'll talk to Lisa, if you like."

"... I don't know"

The girl replied powerless. That tone is very different from what it has been.

"We're tools. Do the assassination as you are commanded, and only die if you fail. Absolutely obedient to the orders of the organization. And yet I don't know why I'm still alive. I don't know why I'm not heavily sanctioned by the organization. I don't know why I instructed you guys to stay in the room earlier. I don't know who I am anymore."

Lisa stared at the girl, but the girl seemed really confused. Lisa discusses the girl.

"(Speaking of which, Maple said, you said that the lack of mouth, which mainly carries out assassinations, would make you kill emotions. They say not many people are emotionless because that's not the only task without a mouth, but you think some of them can't stand intense duty and let go of their emotions themselves? Assuming she was raised as a pure assassin, is there any chance she wasn't originally taught the concept of emotion? Suppose that was some kind of applause and the emotions were starting to budge in her... it's like a big baby, she is)"

I worry about what Lisa should do after this, but the strategy came from the girl.

"You..."

"Do you understand me? You know what the answer is? If you want to know the answer, you can think of killing him."

"Hmm."

Lisa thinks a little. Assuming you give the answer, it's a different question of whether you're satisfied or not. Even if we convinced ourselves again, an assassin would be fine enough to lie and kill ourselves. She doesn't look like a race that feels benevolent, at least not now. Giving her an answer to that would kill us in the end if she wasn't convinced. Either way, they're likely to kill you.

"(You're in trouble... don't you die no matter how you fall? Is this possibly the best pinch of my life, Lisa? Still, some of you want to do something about her, don't you? Well, what is it)"

"What's the matter, if you can't give me an answer, I don't need you guys. I'm gonna have you dead."

Seeing the girl step forward, I accidentally take a step back except for Alphilis and Lisa. That's when Lisa answered.
