Chapter 114 – Kidnapping (5)
After I truly revealed my murderous intent, the fight became one-sided.
“Guh-ack!”
“Shut your trap.”
I used my weapons and skills appropriately, pushing Tsutomu relentlessly.
When he tried to pounce on me, I used his momentum to execute a shoulder throw, then pressed my forearm against his neck, choking him.
When he broke free and threw a punch, I shifted my weight and kicked his leg out, making him fall.
After being on the receiving end of that, Tsutomu must have realized he couldn’t win against me, so he pushed me away and ran.
I didn’t chase after Tsutomu as he fled.
No. To be precise, I couldn’t.
Frankly, my stamina was already depleted from climbing the rugged mountain and engaging in a fierce fight.
More accurately, it was because I had lost my temper and pushed Tsutomu without thinking about my stamina.
If Tsutomu hadn’t run away, I might have collapsed first.
Of course, that was only.
“Gulp. Gulp. Gulp. Ah—that’s good.”
That was only the case when I didn’t have a stamina recovery potion.
I chugged the stamina recovery potion and started running towards where Tsutomu had gone.
***
Meanwhile, at the moment when I had finished my stamina recovery potion and set off to catch Tsutomu.
“Haa…! Haa…! Damn it…! Damn it…! Daaaaaamn it—!!!”
Tsutomu was feeling intense fear.
To be precise, it was the fear of death.
Actually, he had been confident until I had made Momiji run away.
Strangely, after resting a bit, strength and stamina had surged through his body.
No. It wasn’t just a simple surge of power.
He even thought that with this power, he could kill the bullies who used to torment him.
That’s why when he first saw me, he wasn’t worried at all.
He was just incredibly angry that his Mi-tan was in another man’s arms.
And fueled by that anger, Tsutomu used his physical abilities to try and kill me (though he didn’t even use half of his potential).
But strangely, Tsutomu couldn’t kill me.
No. It wasn’t just that he couldn’t kill me.
‘W-what is this?’
He felt a wall.
In reality, he had been underestimating me.
That was because he thought I was on the same level as the girls he always kidnapped and killed.
But I was different.
Not only did I cleanly receive all of Tsutomu’s attacks, but I also easily threw him, giving him a sense of helplessness he had never felt before.
And that’s when Tsutomu started to feel fear.
To be precise, the fear that started from the helplessness of not being able to kill me grew as he fought me.
It grew into the fear that I might be able to kill him.
At this point, he had to make a choice.
Either fight until one of them died or run away.
And among those choices, Tsutomu chose to flee.
He had the courage to kill someone much weaker than himself, but he didn’t have the courage to die.
No. In the first place, he had been running away his whole life.
When he was bullied, he ran into his house, and when his family abandoned him, he ran into 2D.
The only courage he had ever mustered was bringing the sexual desires he had been satisfying in 2D into reality and unleashing them on beings much weaker than himself.
Tsutomu, who had never shown courage in anything else, naturally chose to flee in the face of the fear of death.
It was a very foolish and instinctive action, typical of Tsutomu.
That’s why Tsutomu would never know.
That his choice was the one that determined his fate.
Anyway, Tsutomu, who had fled, was running away, feeling a cold murderous intent aimed at his neck.
‘Quickly! Quickly, I have to escape from that demon!’
He instinctively knew that I was genuinely going to kill him.
No. The coward’s instinct was telling him that if he got caught, it would absolutely not end with just him dying.
That’s why he was running away despite his overflowing physical strength.
In the first place, he was already at his limit. He had no tolerance for pain.
As Tsutomu ran away from me, he bounded up the stairs two steps at a time, thinking.
‘Why me! Why do I have to go through this!’
Anyone who had seen Tsutomu’s actions even once would have thought, ‘Are you serious?’
But Tsutomu was serious.
He didn’t know why he was going through this.
No. To be precise, he knew, but he was deliberately avoiding it.
Tsutomu knew exactly what he had done.
But the thought of death approaching was making him think these absurd thoughts.
‘That’s right, I didn’t do anything wrong. It’s all the fault of society, the country, the atmosphere that made me this way!’
It was a truly shameless act, but what could he do? Even his self-defense mechanism was pathetic.
‘But why do I have to go through this! Everyone else is happy! Why meeeeee!!’
But ironically, this self-defense mechanism gave Tsutomu courage.
‘I can’t be the only one! I can’t be the only one to suffer!’
He was a coward to the very end.
‘I’m going to kill him!!’
That’s why he unleashed the last cowardly thought and hatred he could muster, a double standard.
It was a truly cowardly, no, a human trash-like way of thinking.
***
And at the time when Tsutomu was preparing his last counterattack.
Momiji, who had found the bear prepared on the ground as I had said and climbed on, felt uneasy despite the bear’s warm fur.
‘Is Takuy okay?’
Momiji was scared. She was afraid that the man who had kidnapped her would do something to me.
This was a misunderstanding caused by Momiji not knowing my true nature, but it was actually understandable.
That’s why Momiji decided to find someone to ask for help as soon as she got down.
At least that colleague of his would help too, she thought.
How long had Momiji been closing her eyes, tightly gripping the warm fur of the bear as it sped down the mountain?
“Koo-ong.”
The bear’s voice, which she hadn’t heard since she first got on, was heard.
It seemed like it meant they had arrived, so Momiji opened her eyes, and indeed, the entrance to the foot of the mountain was there.
Momiji carefully got off the bear’s back and asked.
“T-Takuy might be in danger. Please go help him.”
“Koo-ong.”
At those words, the bear nodded as if that was what it had intended to do all along and coolly disappeared.
Momiji watched the bear for a moment before heading to the place I had told her about.
And when she arrived, there really was someone there.
To be precise.
‘Oh, she’s huge!’
It was a statement with various meanings, but what Momiji meant was, of course, that her chest was huge.
No. Actually, besides her chest, she was also tall, her arms and legs were long, and her face was small and beautiful, like a celebrity, but her chest was so prominent that she mentioned it first.
Normally, I would have been jealous, wondering if I liked women with big chests, but right now, there was no time for that.
Momiji quickly ran to the person and said.
“Haa. Haa. U-Unni, Takuy is! Takuy is!”
“Let’s talk after you get in, Takuy-nim told me to handle things quietly.”
“Ah, okay.”
The unni, whom she was meeting for the first time, spoke very calmly, but Momiji could feel it.
That the voice that spoke so calmly was full of worry and anxiety.
Realizing that, Momiji was about to agree to the unni’s words and get in.
“Is that true?”
Until a voice was heard from behind, no, to be precise, until a familiar voice was heard.
Momiji was startled and turned around at the voice.
It was natural for Momiji to react this way. That was because the owner of the voice was.
“Can you tell me more about that story?”
It was Miwako, the female detective she had met on the street just a few days ago.
Miyuki, the pretty unni with the big chest, was on guard at Miwako’s sudden appearance.
That was because the one thing her master had told her to be most careful about was police intervention.
That’s why Miyuki was about to say that it was none of her business, but before that, the child named Momiji, whom her master had told her to take care of, spoke first.
“Um, up on the mountain, a huge brute is fighting with Takuy-kun!”
“Huh? Fighting?”
“He, he was rescuing me…”
At those words, Miwako paused for a moment, then took out sneakers from the bag she was carrying on her side, changed out of her heels, and said.
“Where is that child?”
“You can follow this watch!”
“Okay. I’ll be right back. Trust me, unni.”
“Yes!”
Watching the two of them talk, Miyuki knew she should stop them, but she couldn’t bring herself to do it.
Frankly, Miyuki was also worried about my safety.
It was a genuine emotion that came from her love as a lover and her respect for her master.
And so, the incident began to move in an unexpected direction.
