Chapter 262 – #2-13 Hero Spade vs Villain #13 (3)
Anyway, to say the situation was worst was not enough.
Apple’s hypnosis does not work on #13, and his men are annihilated.
The location where Apple is located is specific, and it is clear that no matter how it escapes, it will be caught.
Above all, the moment Rahe reaches this point, there is no chance of winning.
‘I can’t help Captain Rahe.’
‘Because No. 13 was wary…’
At the suggestion of Dorothy and his staff, Rahe was trained by No. 13 alone.
Although the other members of Division 7 had the opportunity to plant her own ‘safety device’ as Apple also helped Unit 13 and participated in her teaching assistant.
In the case of Rahe, because of the thorough monitoring and management of No. 13, even the hints that Apple had previously planted have been overwritten.
So, even if the other members don’t know, it’s the end if Rahe comes here.
Checkmate.
There is no difference between the number of outsiders.
“What, there is nothing more to be curious about? I won’t teach you even if you ask me more.”
Gradually, No. 13’s breathing also calmed down.
No. 13 glared at Apple, wiping his sweaty forehead with his arm, and Apple silently accepted his gaze.
For a while, a confrontation between the two continues.
“Surrender, Apple. I won’t hurt you.”
Even in that confrontation, Number 13 repeatedly recommended Apple to surrender.
‘… ?’
‘Why… ?’
I’m just tired of running up with all my power.
Just taking a deep breath.
It seems that way anyway.
It looks like that.
However, I feel a little uncomfortable with that action.
Other people may not know it, but since Apple is sensitive to people’s psychology, they can recognize it right away.
Right now, Number 13 is trying to gloss over a certain fact.
Perhaps running up these stairs ignorantly is also a deliberate attempt to avoid being read by Apple by pretending to be tired.
‘Why… ?’
Why?
Why is issue 13 encouraging Apple to surrender quickly?
‘… Captain Rahe couldn’t come?’
‘Didn’t you notice that I couldn’t help Captain Rahe?’
Like Coco a moment ago, I am wary of Apple and cannot bring it here.
It certainly will, Apple could be sure.
Exit is visible.
If that’s the case, you can aim for a reversal… !
“… Mr. 13.”
“Yes. To surrender? Okay, if you say you’re surrendering, throw away that gun–“
“No. 13.”
To No. 13, who thinks that Apple is trying to surrender and tries to be relieved,
Apple proposes, squinting.
“Would you like to hold hands with me?”
Cluck, and
Apple’s muzzle aims at No. 13’s heart.
* * *
“I did the same thing for the Awoken people in this country. And, maybe #13 is cheating for a similar reason.”
The difference between a simple criminal and a villain.
It’s not just that most of the members on the Villain side are Awoken.
In the first place, there are definitely villain organizations where all members are non-awakened.
However, judging them as villains in the country, as an area to be treated by heroes, is that the purpose of their organization requires some change in the treatment of the Awoken.
A rather violent protest group.
Even if you put it like that, it’s not wrong at all.
“No. 13, please think again.”
“Think of not only Mr. 13, but also your fellow Villains that Mr. 13 wants to protect, so please consider it one more time!”
[Abyss], The villain organization to which No. 13 belongs, is also a group that only expresses somewhat radically such a request to provide a place for us to live in this society where there is no place for them now.
If Apple’s words are true, if we support Apple’s activities, we may be able to reach the purpose of 【Abyss】 much faster.
Apple appeals to that, and takes the best way to persuade the other person by manipulating small gestures, small speech habits, and even the emotions in the voice.
It actually works too.
No. 13, hearing Apple’s appeal, felt that her voice, though not so loud, penetrated deep into her bones, into her skull, and sent her whole body tingling.
“Mr. 13, Mr. 13!”
“Please consider once again!”
“If No. 13 and I hold hands, then we can do anything and become anything.”
“If No. 13 wants it, I’ll give it as much as I want.”
“So please don’t rush.”
“We, together in this place—”
Appeal
Appeal
Appeal
With a devil-like voice that disturbs and confuses people’s hearts, but with a voice that makes it impossible to know that it is the devil’s.
Apple was appealing with all its might.
It exerts a powerful effect, and whoever her opponent is a little agitated or confused by her words will be full of gaps.
It must be so.
If the opponent hadn’t been for number 13, it would have been that way.
“No. Shut up. Go away.”
A firm answer came back.
“The answer is No, whore.”
“You would have said that before?”
“Our boss wants you to stop.”
“The boss’s words are absolute. The boss’s orders are absolute.”
“So, I’ll grab your hair right here and drag you to our hideout.”
“There is no other ending.”
There was a kind of madness in that terribly stubborn voice.
It’s also something that Apple, who thought that No. 13 had the same sensibility as an ordinary person, hadn’t realized until now.
He has a normal sensibility to other things, but his attitude towards his boss is neither normal nor rational.
Maybe no matter what he says, he won’t reverse his decision.
Apple realized that, and decided to give up trying to persuade him any further.
“… If so, there is nothing you can do.”
Muttering a little
Without warning, Apple pulled the trigger on the gun he was holding.
Taaang!
A gunshot rang out in the narrow hallway.
* * *
After all, I hardly thought that Apple would succeed in convincing me.
He thought that the probability of success with his own persuasion technique was around 10%, and that it was enough to induce the opponent’s gaps.
I didn’t know that I wouldn’t be upset at all.
But that won’t be a big problem either.
Currently, #13 is in a state of weakness compared to its heyday.
Spade’s training has improved dramatically in recent years.
In the past, no matter what Spade did, he couldn’t beat No. 13.
With the current No. 13, with the current Spade, there was no way she would lose even once.
Besides, he intends to support her as well.
So, you will be able to subdue No. 13 without any problems.
I had already thought about what I would do once I defeated him.
So, no problem.
Everything will be fine
Apple runs away from here, and an all-out war between the country’s main villain organization and the Hero Association will take place without any problems.
That’s right, as long as you defeat #13.
If only No. 13 is suppressed like this.
If only No. 13 is defeated, it’s for sure.
Everything will be fine–
* * *
Right before Apple’s muzzle bursts into flames.
No. 13 turned around so naturally, as if it already knew it, to get out of Apple’s line of sight.
Taang!
A gunshot sounded along with him, and the bullets deflected to the side of No. 13.
‘Did you avoid it?!’
‘I moved as if I already knew.’
‘… It’s Aria… ! Did you foresee this far…?!’
Bang! Bang! Taang!
Apple pulled the trigger several more times, but none of them hit issue 13.
With phenomenal physical abilities that are not like ordinary people even at first glance, No. 13 dodged Apple’s bullets.
He also deflected one of the bullets with a modified baton pulled from his waist.
And the very moment when No. 13 barely blocked Apple’s gun.
After receiving Apple’s small sign, the spade rushed toward No. 13 without delay.
Thirteen, her arms numb from blocking her bullets, delayed her reaction for a moment, allowing her to come right up to her at close range.
“Kuh… !”
Thirteen swung the baton at the spade in a sloppy stance, but before the tip of the baton could be properly swung, the spade’s foot kicked the handle of the baton.
13’s weapon flew through the air, hit the ceiling, and fell at a distance.
I blew up No. 13’s weapon, but at that moment Spade also had a slight gap.
No. 13 quickly reached out her hand and pulled out her special weapon, her dagger, which was hanging from the waist of her spade.
“!”
Spade opened her eyes wide in surprise, and pulled out the one remaining dagger in her hand.
When this happens, the single stick is one in the hand of No. 13 and one for the spade.
Originally, ink-colored single sticks were held in each hand, but now one in each hand.
Spade was quite surprised that her weapon had been taken away in such a brief moment, but she showed no signs of surprise and swung her weapon in her hand without delay.
Kaaaaang!
Kang! Kaaang!
No. 13’s single stick blocks the spade’s single stick, and sparks fly here and there.
The weight of the dagger and the power it wields are enormous.
Even if it didn’t have a blade, even if it wasn’t a gun, it had enough killing power every time it was wielded.
A deadly battle ensued where a moment’s gap led to death as they wielded their weapons at close range.
