Part 2

【Golden (Konjiki)】 crossed her arms and squinted her eyes, but her partner said while trembling.

“Aaaaah, that’s true...... I-I knew that, it might not work. B-But, he is not just strong. Aaaah...... That guy, threw, my, special bomb, at Ga-Gark. Th-There are definitely a few screws, loose in his head.” (Mutou)

“..................” (Konjiki)

“H-H-How are we, w-w-weakling, g-g-going to kill someone even crazier than us!” (Mutou)

The bar was silent. Neither the manager wearing all black at the counter nor the other customers said a word. But what he said was right on target.

The strength of an assassin is that he is aware that his actions are culpable from the start.

Therefore, 【Golden (Konjiki)】 does not need to be picky about her means to achieve her goal, and as long as her opponent is normal, the advantage is on the 【Golden’s (Konjiki)】 side. This is true no matter how powerful her target is.

However, what if her opponent had no intention of being picky in the first place?

【Golden (Konjiki)】 clearly understood the meaning behind the fear in 【Zero Struggle’s (Mutou)】 eyes.

“W-We are on the same battlefield. 【Golden (Konjiki)】. Th-Th-That guy is standing in the s-same battlefield as us! L-Listen, th-th-that guy, is gonna do it! So-So-Something that even we won’t. Th-Th-That guy will kill our friends, acquaintances, and family members――And hang them. To-To-To make an example of us! He isn’t afraid of crossing the line!” (Mutou)

“...... I have no friends. Well, except you. And my family is long gone.” (Konjiki)

“I-I-I still have, some.” (Mutou)

As 【Golden (Konjiki)】 narrowed her eyes, 【Zero Struggle (Mutou)】 stood up unsteadily and emotionally waved his arms around and shouted.

No, to begin with――There should be very few people who know about this tavern. Where did the information leak from? They looked at the manager, but he was shaking his head.

From behind the door, they could hear a shout. It was the cry of a young woman who seemed to be desperate.

“I will not let Master~ become a criminal!” (Tino?)

One person...... huh. Is she a member of 《Infinite Variety’s (Senpen Banka)》 Clan?

We can do it. There is no problem if she is alone. As if to break through such escapist thinking, a man with a bad-boy-sounding voice could be heard outside.

“Hey, we know you are here! Surrender, there are fifty of us, we will not hang you, nor will we make an example out of you!” (Sven?)

Fifty people...... You say!? Impossible. There are too many. In the first place, unless it is a fairly large clan, there aren’t even fifty members in it.

It could be a bluff, but it would be dangerous to say so. There are a lot of presences behind the door.

Even if there were really only 30 people, it would not make a big difference. To begin with, 【Golden (Konjiki)】 and the others were not even equipped for battle. There were guards outside, but they must have been beaten up as well.

“There is a back door.” (Manager)

The manager says shortly and disappears behind the counter. The door bent and the hinges *gatagata* rattled. It will be breached by force, there was no time to think.

“Damn, let’s get away!” (Konjiki)

She pulled 【Zero Struggle (Mutou)】 arm and headed for the back of the counter. Almost at the same time, the thick door, weighing several tens of kilograms, collapsed violently.
