Chapter 287 – #3-4 the Boss Hates His Subordinates (3)
『Hello, nice to meet you.』
『You are Violet, the boss of the villain organization [Abyss], Right?』
『I heard that some of my guests were rude a while ago.』
『[Resserat], You must have heard of it.』
Beyond the smartphone.
Her voice seemed to have been altered by a machine, and even her tone was neutral, so she couldn’t even tell if the other person was a man or a woman.
Identity unknown, gender unknown.
While thoroughly hiding himself, the opponent continued to talk to Violet.
“You don’t have to be too nervous. I don’t like barbaric things in the first place.”
『I just want to have a little conversation.』
『——Because I just want to make a deal.”
The opponent said so and persuaded Violet.
* * *
“The 7th Division of the Hero Association.”
“There Class A Hero Spade.”
“The bitch killed my brother.”
“That bitch, killed my brother.”
Boss Violet muttered something possessed about her, telling her what had happened.
She stopped throwing things in her hands at random, but I was worried about her now, as if her soul had been drained.
Even so.
What did the boss just say… ?
“Yes… ? No, what is that——what does that mean?”
“No. 13.”
No. 13, who was about to say something because she didn’t understand what Violet had said, was called by Dorothy, who had come to her side.
When No. 13 turned around, what Dorothy held out was her favorite tablet PC.
A video was displayed on the screen.
‘… What is this?’
‘CCTV video… ?’
When I played back the inferior quality video, it seemed to be a scene inside a building.
However, it is not an ordinary building, but a building that seems to be half ruined.
The CCTV screen also had cracks on the recorded screen, as if the glass in front of it had been broken.
No. 13 was able to recognize at a glance that it was not a simple scene, but the site of a certain terrorism.
In the middle of the video, a woman is standing and shouting something.
At the scene where she became abusive, she made loud gestures and at some point turned her body around and tried to go back somewhere.
And right at that moment.
Fuuk!
『———————… !』
As the woman turned around, someone came like the wind behind her, and before she could react, she swung her fist at the body.
Even though it was a bare hand without any weapon, it easily pierced the opponent’s body as if it were a gun or a knife.
Arm piercing the body.
That bleeds.
A woman whose body had been pierced convulsed for a moment, then drooped down and died.
Through this video, I was able to find out without omission.
Who is the dead woman
The person who killed the woman also looked young compared to now, but not to the point of being unrecognizable.
“This… The boss’s brother and… Spade… ?”
“Okay. The boss’s younger brother was an Awakener, and pushed by the Awakener’s urge, he tried to cause an explosion at a department store using this ability. … And that was overpowered by a girl named Spade who was 1 at the time.”
No, that’s nonsense.
I know that the boss’s brother was an Awakener, and that he was in an unstable state.
Most Awoken people develop some kind of mental defect.
No. 13 had already heard from Violet that the boss’s younger brother also couldn’t stand the urge and started terrorizing the villains.
However, the one who subdued such a younger brother was Spade, who was only a minor and a student at the time.
At that time, she wouldn’t even have the right to be a hero.
In addition to subduing people, she may have even been trained to kill..
However, to think that she, a normal person and only a minor, could have killed her opponent in one shot without hesitation.
At least, the Spade he knew wasn’t this bold. I don’t think she is.
“No. Is it because of this video? You can compose as many videos as you like! Dorothy, right? Right!?”
“… The boss ordered it, so I checked it myself. There is no sign of editing or manipulation. … It is unmistakably real video.”
At Dorothy’s words, Number 13 couldn’t help but be stunned.
Violet, who saw the video for the first time, also calmed down thinking about the possibility No. 13 mentioned.
However, when he entrusted his emotions to Dorothy and as a result learned that this video was real, he eventually started to riot and continued to this day.
“… I know.”
With Dorothy’s guarantee, No. 13 couldn’t say anything anymore and stood still.
Violet, who had been burying herself in a chair as if her soul had lost her mind, muttered resignedly.
“My little brother… I know there was no answer… If you leave it as is… A lot of people must have died… Like a normal life in the first place… Because I couldn’t live.”
Violet’s younger sister.
Her ability is to explode anything she touches with her hands or sees with her eyes into a bomb. Perhaps because she is so powerful, the mental pollution caused by her constellation is also powerful.
That’s why she always had to fight the urge to explode a lot of people, more and bigger things.
Getting exhausted day by day
Her sister, Violet, also knew that it was declining day by day.
So, she knew that this ending was inevitable.
So, she knows she shouldn’t complain about an ending like this.
However.
However.
However.
“However… But, I can’t help it…”
“My little brother… My little brother… I’m sorry, what should I do… ?”
“Because I think my brother was beaten to death by that hero bitch… I can’t stand it…”
“Her head heats up, and it feels like a knife is about to poke out of her heart.”
“Thorns have sprouted from all the blood vessels in my body, and it feels like I’m going to pierce my whole body and bleed…” .”
“No. 13.”
“I can be angry?”
“I want to be angry.”
“I want to break, break, break everything.”
“Huh… ? Please, number 13… Tell me yes… Please… Me…”
Boss Violet spoke to #13 with a fragile and unstable figure she had never seen before.
Begging and entreaty.
His own actions may be right, but he wants someone’s permission to be an indulgence.
In my head, I know that my younger brother is a villain and that such an end is inevitable.
Rather, what he should blame would be himself, who was not there when such a younger brother was cornered.
Despite this, he can’t stop his anger.
I can’t stand the hatred towards the hero who made my younger brother like that.
“No. 13, No. 13… !!”
“Nana… ! I can’t stand it… I can’t stand it… !”
“Please please… Me… What to do… ? What should I do… ? No. 13, No. 13 Oh oh… !”
Fragile, fragile, fragile, fragile.
Violet stood up from the chair she was leaning on, looking like she would break at any moment.
As it was, it staggered towards No. 13 and clung to him as if it were half clinging.
Eyes soaked in confusion, anger, sadness, and sadness look up at No. 13 as if asking for help.
“No. 13.”
“In front of me, bring that woman…”
“With my own hands, I will tear her apart.”
“I will avenge my brother.”
“I’ll drive her stake through that woman’s heart and watch her die, spitting up her blood.”
“Please, number 13. Will you do my favor? Yes?”
“No. 13. No. 13.”
“Listen, will you give it to me?”
This is the first boss I’ve ever seen.
It’s fragile, and it reminds me of a sandcastle that could collapse at any moment.
I was taken aback by Violet’s appearance, and I was taken aback by her subsequent request.
Originally, the policy of this organization [Abyss] Was non-killing.
Even if you think about the purpose of the organization, even if the opponent is a hero who tries to kill them, murder is unacceptable.
Because it was Violet who insisted on it in the first place.
Violet’s unreasonable insistence and selfish request made it difficult for #13.
However, thinking about it for a while.
“No. 13 you, you——”
“You are on my side… !”
At Violet’s words, Number 13’s worries were lifted.
Even his fluctuating and agitated heart was instantly calmed by those words.
One’s own life is a life owed to the boss.
From the moment she was saved that day, she made a vow in her heart that she would always stand by her boss and sacrifice and give up her everything.
Therefore.
Therefore…
“Of course, Boss.”
“Please don’t worry.”
“Please calm down.”
No. 13 said that in a lithe voice, and hugged Violet’s body, which was clinging to him.
Violet flinched in Number 13’s arms for a moment, but soon buried herself in Number 13’s arms.
“I will take care of your anxiety and anger.”
“As you said, I will bring her here.”
“I will affirm all of your revenge and anger.”
“So, don’t worry.”
“So, take it easy, boss.”
“——IUntil the end of the world, I’m only on your side.”
At No. 13’s persuasion, Violet nodded in his arms.
Although it was the arms that reassured Spade during the day and hugged her.
Ironically, now I’ve become accustomed to accepting Violet’s confession to kill the spade…
