Akira sneaks into the shadows of the rubble and shoots the men.

Considering the effect of the colorless fog, the shooting that started from the wonderful position made it completely impossible for the men to grasp Akira's position.

The men who attacked Elena and the others let out a cry of despair.

"Alpha. How many more?"

"Three people died. The rest of the five.

By the way, Akira killed only one person.

The last two were killed by them. ”

"In that case, did both of you figure it out on your own? ”

"Yes"

Akira's expression stiffened a little in response to Alpha's response.

Alpha makes no secret of his displeasure and speaks with expressions and tones that correspond to his displeasure.

「...... Well, don't you hate helping them that much?"

Akira is rare, and in order not to let the other person's mood be affected anymore, he adopts an attitude of being like a loser.

In contrast, Alpha smiled while avoiding the expression and tone of voice that blamed Akira.

"Nothing like that, I think it's good to help others.

It's just that Akira, who accepted my commission, is not very strong, but she can't die until she completes my commission.

But for the sake of other people who have never met and never spoke, I just have some doubts about what must be done in the face of exposing the danger to their lives.

If Akira dies, I'm in trouble.

It should be fine, yes, that's how I conveyed it, right?'

Alpha's support is not free.

The remuneration of the alpha commission, the part of the advance payment.

If he dies because of something unrelated to the commission, it will be just an advance payment for Alpha.

That's probably a reason to be upset.

Akira, judging in this way, felt a little negative, staggered, and gently defended herself.

"No, you see, if there's as much support as strong as Alpha, it's easy to play, and that's mainly what I think, and it's evidence that I believe a lot in the quality of support......"

"I'm really happy to be able to trust my support to that extent. Really?'

Akira felt oppressed by Alpha's powerful smile, interrupted slightly, and smiled softly.

The monster that was guided by the men, when it was still far away, Alpha had already detected its existence.

In addition, it was also mastered that the monster was uncontrollable for Akira.

Therefore, in case something happens, in order to force the Elena to take countermeasures, Akira and Elena keep a certain distance.

And told Akira about the situation.

Advance notice and move quickly when the battle takes place so that Akira does not get involved.

But Akira still took an action that Alpha didn't expect.

Instead of taking refuge in advance, he began to explore the situation until he shortened the distance between him and Alina.

When Elena's condition deteriorated severely, Akira looked rather upset and began to say even more unexpected things to Alpha with a look of bewilderment.

"Alpha. With Alpha's backing, could I possibly kill those guys?"

"Are you going to help them?"

"Isn't it okay?"

Implement if possible.

Alpha read Akira's intention and replied in some surprise.

"If it's possible, it's impossible.

But the dangerous thing hasn't changed.

I don't think there's any need to interfere forcefully. 』

"Even with Alpha's strong support, will I be killed with a high probability?"

"Although the situation is also related, if you act with Akira's survival as a priority, the risk of death will be very low.

But the safest thing to do is not to do it at all. ”

"In other words, there's always a way, right?"

If you answer a similar no, you will be questioned about the quality of the support.

That's in the way, so I'm sure of it.

Based on this judgment, Alpha could not speculate on the reason for Akira's love, and asked strangely.

"I will.

But can you tell me why we did that? We have to work out a concrete course of action based on that reason. ”

Akira was silent.

Hesitant to say that reason.

Alpha confirmed Akira's displeasure, anxiety, unhappiness, disgust, and anger from her expression, but was unable to deduce the reason.

And that kind of negative emotion is even stronger than when Akira was attacked in the ruins.

Nor was Akira himself attacked like last time.

The person who was attacked was not an acquaintance either.

Despite this, Akira harbors stronger negative feelings.

In the past, there was a lack of equipment and strength, and the feelings of desperately holding that hand in order to survive may not be rich.

It's safer now, and the equipment and strength have improved compared to last time.

This gap of abundance may tempt to discover the present feelings.

Alpha also guessed that.

But now Akira's mental state is weak as a reason to induce such strong negative feelings.

Alpha came to such a conclusion.

Silence continues.

Akira understands this to mean that he won't help if he doesn't answer, and after a little thought, he will come up with such a reason.

「...... If those guys were in the ruins, I might be attacked again.

I'm going to be here several times next.

Those guys better kill them now.

...... And, you see, you're saying I'm not lucky, right?

If I help them, I might be luckier.

Isn't it good to have good luck in normal times or something?"

Alpha listened to that answer and thought about it.

The reason Akira said was high-sounding.

The premise of killing men is merely a statement of the reasons for doing so.

Akira wasn't looking for a reason to help them, she was looking for a reason to kill them.

I didn't kill them to help them.

And wanted to help them kill them.

I'm afraid that in Akira's consciousness, there is a certain standard that he is not very aware of.

Then as a result of judging by this criterion, they are classified as humans who should be killed.

Alpha guessed that point, but still couldn't guess that benchmark.

After a few more moments of silence, Akira's expression took on a color that bordered on disappointment.

"Even with the strong support of Alpha, I would give up if it was difficult......"

If the question and answer continues, the feelings that Akira is holding now, even if it is just a little bit, may have an impact on him.

There is also the danger of seriously damaging one's trust in support.

That's how Alpha judges.

For Alpha, their lives don't matter at all.

In order to curry favor with Akira, Alpha decides to let them die.

He didn't show the slightest calmness or thorough judgment, and replied as if he were slightly refuting Akira's words.

"What are you talking about? More than enough with my support. It's simple."

"Yes? Please, then. ”

"Okay. Let's finish it right away. I'll go first. Come here!"

Alpha accepted Akira's request.

Thus, in a place that had nothing to do with Elena and the Bubachs, the fate of the Bubachs came to an end.

Akira, with the full support of Alpha, attacked Bubaha and them.

From a safe and concealed sniper position, he aimed the ballistic prediction line between Bubach's eyebrows and pulled the trigger without hesitation.

After that, he continued to shoot to help the Elenas retreat.

Even if it was confirmed that the Elenas had fled into the building, there was no peace of mind.

Akira just felt that the reason for completing the façade.

"Akira. Let's move

"Received"

Follow the instructions through the alleys of the ruins, through the building, and hide in the rubble to move to the next sniper position.

Then he shot at the man who didn't attack him.

Aim for the head, with a hint of unpleasure in your cold expression, and pull the trigger.

Akira's eyes, which looked at the sniper target, were closer to disgust than hatred.

The shot shot hit the man in the head.

Bullets created to take down monsters with stronger vitality brutally destroy the heads of people who are more vulnerable than monsters.

"Akira. Let's move

"Received"

Akira moves on to the next sniper position before being figured out by the other men.

Alpha's brilliant instructions keep the men from getting to Akira's position.

On the way, I suddenly thought of a question.

「...... Even so, our goal was to get close and undetected. 」

"Because it's sniping from a place that's hard to find.

It will not be difficult if you can accurately choose the advantageous geographical conditions.

And now under the influence of the colorless fog, it has become difficult to find Akira"

"Because there is no color fog, the conditions are the same as ours, right?"

"It's completely different.

My ability to search the ruins of Kuzara Street is a world away from their cheap intelligence-gathering machines.

It's like fighting only with a blindfold on the opposite side.

Without such a big gap, it is impossible to defeat them with Akira's strength.

So don't make the mistake of thinking that this situation is your own strength.

Aren't they particularly weak? Opponents of that level are easy.

Don't think so. ”

"I know"

Alpha smiled strongly.

"That would be fine. ...... Really, stop, right?'

"Wow, I know. ”

Akira replied a little anxiously.

I answered sincerely, but I thought it might be thought that I might get carried away and hurried forward nervously.

Alpha slammed the nail after knowing that.

The man trembled with fear.

He was the only one who survived.

Friends are turned into corpses and tumble through the ruins.

If you continue like this, you will join in the fun.

That understanding incited the terror of men.

「...... Ah, damn it...... What will it become?

In this colorless fog, why can it be aimed so accurately?

Why such a powerful opponent, why would they come to such a place?

Maybe it's weird......"

The ruins of Kuzara Street are supposed to be the remains of an already lonely one.

At the very least, the periphery should not be a place where it is easy to kill one's own strength.

The outer part of the collection is a rough square relic, and the inner part is judged to be inappropriate by the strength of the monster.

If it weren't for this rumor, skilled hunters wouldn't have come close to the ruins here.

"Bastard of Bubaha, you say it's just a declining hunter here?

Say the right thing.

He did it. He did it!!"

Taking advantage of the gap between attacking other hunters, it is actually their own will to participate.

He could only curse like this.

The colorless fog began to disperse for the most part.

But for men, it doesn't make their condition better.

The one who aimed at himself, even under the influence of that colorless mist, showed such great ability.

If the fog clears, you will be able to aim more precisely and accurately.

He could only think like that.

As the effects of the colorless fog faded, the male intelligence-gathering machine showed Akira's reaction.

But relying on that, he couldn't have killed Akira.

The anger of the slain companion was dispelled by the horror of being killed himself.

A man's heart is broken.

If you continue like this, you will be killed.

Men know that, too.

Men are troubled by their troubles and make bitter decisions in order to survive.

Distort your expression and drop your weapon, and you will emerge from the rubble buried in your body.

Then raise your hands and call out loudly.

"I've lost! Surrender, so don't kill me!"

The man walked to the unsheltered path and raised his hands to look around.

"I'm the bastard he forced to help Bubach!

They threaten me that if they refuse, they will kill me!

I didn't mean to! I can't help it!"

The man looked around uncertainly.

"Wow, I'm sorry! I'm not going to go on like this!

If it's money, I've got a little more!

I'll give you even their share! Save a little money! If you want it, I'll give it to you!

If you kill me, I won't get that!?"

While the man's nervous expression due to horror appeared, he waited for the other party's reaction.

Voices, gestures, bullets did not respond.

"Really! Not a lie!

...... Well, you're hesitating not to shoot, right? What are you suspecting? Do you think I'm hiding a weapon? Or do you think it's dangerous to be bare hands if it's a reinforced suit?

Okay! Just take it off! Take it off, so don't shoot!"

Men take off cheap reinforcement suits.

So Akira emerged from the shadows of the alley.

The man was surprised to see Akira.

I didn't expect the other party to be a child.

Then he was relieved at the same time.

If it does, there should be room for negotiations.

That's what he thought.

The fear of death faded, and that expression relaxed.

He was saved.

In short, his life was saved.

Find a way to negotiate with that kid later ......)

In the next instant, the man was shot by Akira.

The bullet hit the middle of the man's torso.

In the mind of an inexplicable, chaotic man, a similar scene that he had seen not long ago came to mind.

Sarah is shot by Bubaha.

I'm mistaken for a nanomachine-based body power enhancer.

This thought, which emerged in the fading consciousness, disappeared with this consciousness and life.

"Ah...... I don't ......, no...... It's ......"
