Chapter 187 – Episode 22. Kurotsuki-Do (Black Moon Hall) Clearing Battle.
Senboku City Senboku City Middle School.
Since it was July and the school was empty for vacation, Kurotsuki Doo was nesting here without any disturbance. Tang Xiaohua (唐小花), head of the Northeast Asia branch of Kurotsuki Doo, currently in charge of the Great Taira Food Exhibition, was sitting in the school library and receiving reports from her subordinate.
“The East Weapons on the western front are attacking Kakunodate!”
“Huh… ! Their numbers are small, but they’re only attacking those on the western front, not all of them? “What are you thinking?”
Tang Xiaohua tilted her head as if she didn’t understand. Although the quality of Kurotsukido’s lower-level soldiers was not good, they were more numerous, and she had talented people on this side, and although she had not revealed it yet, she could single-handedly wipe out all of the remaining Taira Foods forces if she stepped forward. She and her opponent, of course, are superhumans, and she doesn’t know that she’s sitting here in the school library.
The messenger from Kurotsukido who was making her report was looking at Tang Xiaohua with a slightly fearful expression. She Tang Xiaohua was so combat crazy that she wore a cyber suit even in normal times, and she also had a bad personality, which made her nervous.
However, it was not so much her personality as Tang Xiaohua, but rather her ability to strike fear into her opponents.
She is afraid that her messenger himself will also melt because Tang Xiaohua, who used the poison attack, a visionary skill of the Tang clan that fell in the third war, used a powerful poison that can melt people without a trace.
There are many legends related to Tang Xiaohua. He started out as a low-ranking soldier of the Kurotsuki Domain, but distinguished himself in the Battle of Yangcheon, where he killed 100 people in an instant, and the Battle of Tianjin, where he killed 200 with a single dose of poison. He continued to display his skills thereafter. He continued to rise and rose to the position of branch manager, which can be considered an executive level of Kurotsuki Doo. It was unprecedented for Kurotsukido’s high-ranking blood relatives, the Yang clan or the Ha clan, to be in charge of Northeast Asia rather than any other region.
Tang Xiaohua’s poison had been used several times in political battles within the Kurotsuki Province, so even his subordinates were afraid of Tang Xiaohua, just like the attitude the messenger was showing now. He was afraid that Tang Xiaohua’s poison might be aimed at him as well.
“Yes, Kakunodate has a lot of troops, but tell them to be ready to leave at any time so that we can provide support right away!”
“Yes, four!”
After hearing Tang Xiaohua’s words, the messenger bowed her head and hurried out of the library. At that moment, the moon hidden in the clouds was revealed, and Tang Xiaohua’s appearance was revealed.
Bright light green hair and glowing green eyes, possibly due to the poison attack. He showed a slender body wearing a cyber suit. What was unusual was that he wore a tech mast shaped like a skull’s mouth. This skull mask was Tang Xiaohua’s trademark, and anyone who knew Tang Xiaohua would immediately run away if they saw someone wearing that mask. She was a woman who looked dangerous to anyone, with green lights flashing on the circuitry of her cyber suit exposed here and there.
“Ah~! It’s boring… ! I wish the situation was a little more tense…”
Tang Xiaohua muttered as she stretched herself alone. She didn’t even think about losing in a fight with Tyra Food, which was her only food, not Tyra’s main force anyway. Tang Xiaohua clearly believed that this fight would also end in her victory.

Bang!
Mikiyo Sawayanagi was advancing on an armored personnel carrier, eliminating scouts on top of roadside buildings one by one. He received a call immediately after his departure, saying that Daisen would also move north and apply pressure so that Kurotsuki Doo would have no choice but to divide his forces.
We advanced straight on Route 46, and Daisen’s main force headed north on Route 105. The place where the two roads met was Kakunodate.
“Just five more minutes and we’ll arrive at the point we thought of, so everyone get ready.”
Azuma Sawayanagi shouted while looking at everyone, everyone understands! She did and she answered. Unlike usual, he showed respect for his captain, Azuma Sawayanagi, in actual combat.
“Stop for a moment.”
Telepathic Lyanna Holden spoke to Kiyonahori, who was driving, and then she opened the upper hinged door, sending the drone flying. Through that door, Mikiyo Sawayanagi, who had been sniping from the car up to this point, came down.
“For now, we have completed all the reconnaissance in the surrounding area. “But they probably knew we were coming because of the gunshots.”
“It’s a battle of power vs. Power anyway. Even if you notice, you can’t do anything about it.”
Azuma Sawayanagi responded to Mikiyo Sawayanagi’s words with a firm voice. Everyone was silent for a moment, so the only sound was the sound of Shigero Sawayanagi, a speedster with a lot of calories, continuing to stuff something into her mouth.
“Arrived.”
“Lyanna?”
“From the drone’s perspective, it looks like it’s okay to take it down now.”
Tobe Sawayanagi and I got up from our seats. It was a simple operation to enter first and then clear out the confused Kurotsuki-do, but it had to be based on the premise that just the two of us would be able to do something great enough to cause chaos.
Because Sawayanagi Tobe did not have the ability to attack from a distance, she wore a submachine gun on her thighs, crossed the guns on her back in the shape of an X, and held a gun with a grenade launcher in her hand.
I wore lighter equipment than Sawayanagi Tobe, with a pistol on both thighs and a gun with a grenade launcher in my hand.
“Investor! Be careful! “I will contact you later through Lyanna, but you must follow the contents of that communication!”
“Yes. “You have to follow the operator’s instructions.”
What kind of future did you predict that you’re talking about in advance like this? I nodded first and got out of the car with Tobe Sawayanagi.
We walked slowly and looked around. There were several paths, but in order to attract aggro, we walked slowly along the biggest road. It was still early days in Kakunodate, so there didn’t seem to be many enemies. After about 3 minutes of walking, a bullet came flying.
“Fight begins!”
I shouted into the radio and ran towards a group of people pointing guns at me. I arrived at the front of the group while my helmet and cybersuit deflected most of the bullets. Sawayanagi Tobe provided covering fire while I ran. Since they had set a rule that if one of them charged, the other would take cover, they seemed to follow suit.
There was no need for Shinkaiyatsude for the low-ranking soldiers of Kurotsuki Do who merely gave guns to the thugs. Using his telekinesis, he raised the muzzle and swung wide with his abyss-filled hand, cutting ten people to pieces in an instant.
The enemies were caught off guard when the muzzles were suddenly raised, so they were unable to take any defensive action and were cut in half.
“Kaaah!”
A group of soldiers were wiped out with a scream, and we headed to the next location. Next, bullets came pouring in from both sides of the alley, but this time the two were back to back and fired bullets in both directions.
The opponent dies with just one hit, and since we didn’t take much damage, we were able to annihilate it without difficulty this time.
However, the opponent seemed to have sensed that we could no longer compete with regular bullets, so they used something like an RPG-7 or a grenade launcher. Lyanna Holden, who had confirmed it with a drone in advance, warned us, and Mikiyo Sawayanagi, who climbed up to the roof of the building, took a headshot with a sniper. It was properly defended by blowing it away.
Even if there was a guy Miki Sawayanagi couldn’t deal with, I used my telekinesis to change her gun’s muzzle to avoid the barrage, and then ran towards her and killed her with her gun. He was so far away that using telekinesis was unreasonable, and his head felt tingly, but thinking that this was all about increasing his skill level, it was bearable.
The main unit of East Weapon that came behind us could also faintly hear the sound of gunfire, as if the battle had begun. I am sure that we were in a very advantageous situation because we were the first to draw aggro and massacre at least close to three digits.
Tatangtangtangtangtangtang!!!
When we almost reached the end of downtown Kakunodate, a barrage of machine guns came pouring out from buildings on both sides. It was clearly a large-diameter bullet from a machine gun, so it penetrated the cyber armor and penetrated the flesh. The damage was reduced because the cyber armor blocked it, but the bullet lodged deep in my flesh.
When I looked at Sawayanagi Tobe next to me, it seemed like sparks were flying and the bullet was deflecting, perhaps because of the steel boots. However, if you continue to get hit, the steel will come off.
We quickly ran and entered the alley.
“Are you okay?”
Sawayanagi Tobe asked me in his characteristic haoche if he was worried about me bleeding, but when I showed him my flesh rising and the bullet falling to the ground, he nodded as if he was glad.
“Thank God…”
“Let’s jump out at once and shoot the grenade launcher where the machine gun is.”
“Then I will shoot the building on the right.”
Then, naturally, I am the building on the left. We counted to three at the same time, jumped out, and fired a grenade launcher at each building we were assigned to.
A grenade flew out with a thud and broke through the window where the machine gun was located. And 1 second later, Kwaang! It exploded with a sound.
A small achievement! A single attack resulted in the mass murder of more than 50 people. 15 percent additional experience
It is given.
Oh! The achievement window that only appeared when related to the Daughter of the Abyss has appeared.
LEVEL UP!
Please select a characteristic.
It seemed like I had even leveled up thanks to the additional experience points. Since it’s a battle situation right now, I can’t take the characteristics or stats right away, so I’ll put it off until later…
-Hey! Handsome guy! Stop for a moment, the captain has something to say!
At that moment, I heard Lyanna Holden’s voice in my head. What’s going on?

Maybe because I added the skull mask tag, there are a lot of skulls.
