Chapter 44
[Evil Lost]
When I raised my face, my eyes met with Yoiyami-san’s eyes . [1]
His features is exactly as I’ve heard, dark circles under his eyes were more terrible than Chiyaku-san, and his eyes looked really evil .
His whitening black hair hid one of his eyes, and he has a characteristic thin lips and white skin .
He is a bit taller than me, and he is thin .
He looks one or two years older than Boss .
And to be honest, he didn’t look very strong .
However, this person is dangerous . His aura makes me feel so .
“Desuko and Roll? And who is this kid?”
“He’s a newcomer Shion-kun, y’know . Rather than that Yoiyami, you become old . ”
“Why do you come here?”
“Of course, we come to bring you back . ”
Desuko-san has an unusually serious expression .
Aren’t you doing this mission unwillingly?
“So three small fry came to persuade me? Don’t make me say it again . I won’t go back to the organization . ”
The moment Yoiyami-san said that, Roll holds me and jumped back .
My body is swaying, and I felt like vomiting again . Coupled with the pain of my injury makes it worse .
“……you got a good reaction, Roll . ”
“Thanks . ”
Because this person’s killing intent is abnormal, even though I thought that using alcohol’s power to alleviate nervousness is incomprehensible, now I appreciated it .
I separated from Roll, and somehow stood on my staggering feet .
I drank too much . Isn’t it good that I’m only slightly tipsy?
“Yoiyami has bad temper as usuaal~ . We didn’t come to fight y’know . ”
“Is that so? Then go back . If you can’t beat me with your strength, I won’t go back to the organization . ”

“Then, I won’t be reserved . ”
*Dan* . The sound of Desuko-san kicking the ground was heard . And suddenly she’s already before Yoiyami-san .
When Desuko-san thrust her arm like a sword, I expected it to make a clean hit at Yoiyami-san .
But, there is no hit sound .
“……did you forget my ability, Desuko?”
Desuko-san’s arm was swallowed by the mysterious black ‘haze’ on the abdomen of Yoiyami-san .
“So you didn’t got weakened at all . ”
Desuko-san was stopped in thrusting posture .
No, she was caught .
Yoiyami-san grabbed Desuko-san’s thrusted arm .
“It’s bad……!”
Roll moved .
Roll immediately goes into stray cat mode, and released a dropkick at Yoiyami-san .
When Roll flew like an arrow, Yoiyami-san only looked at her for a
bit, then dodge her by turning slightly .
In that gap, Desuko-san escaped from Yoiyami-san’s restraint, and distanced herself .
Then Desuko-san glared at Yoiyami-san for a while, but suddenly released her posture .
After landing behind Yoiyami-san, Roll who had been maintaining low posture also gave up .
“Now you understand . ”
Yoiyami-san’s voice resounded .
“Roll 5 times, and me 9 times, if you wanted it, that’s how many times we could die~ . Though if you’re serious, you could kill us anytime .
I knew it, but you’re really strong~ . ”
“Tell Hyde to come directly if he wasn’t afraid . ”

“Okay . But I think the current you can’t beat Hyde . ”
“……what?”
“I know we only fought for a bit, but as expected you had gotten weak .
Since leaving the organization, have you always been totally immersed in comfort? You must be glad, right?
Though I can understand why you became weak . As well as the heart of Yoiyami who was feared as ‘Demon’ . ”
……why are you provoking him?
Roll who can be seen behind Yoiyami-san looked at Desuko-san doubtfully with her cat ears standing upright .
“As always, you said things like you can see through me . ”
“I can see through you y’know . Yoiyami, I can read your current heart even without my ability .
a~ . I wanna go baack~ . To the old cool Yoiyami . ”
“You’re really annoying . Should I kill you?”
When Yoiyami-san took a step towards Desuko-san, Roll readied her stance once again .
But when Yoiyami-san glared at her, she stopped moving .
There is no other way . I thought so, and when I aimed at Yoiyami-san to fire Soundshot, Desuko-san with her usual cheerful voice said,
That voice resounded loudly .
“By the way Yoiyami, looks like you’ve been living here for a long time . Have you found someone you love?”
“……”
“That izakaya’s hall staff girl is really cute~ .
Is she the owner’s daughter? Looks like she often serves you . Even though you have killed a lot of people and was drenched with their blood, seems like even some trash like Yoiyami could become kind .
Have you feel people’s warmth?”
“Seems like you wanted to be killed . ”
*pachin*
Desuko-san snapped her fingers .
Then izakaya’s door opened, and the owner came out with empty eyes .
Looking at the inside of the opened door, all the people inside the shop seemed to be lying down unconscious .

This is…… Desuko-san’s ability .
‘Reading and Manipulating Subconsciousness, Mind Read’
Although it is conditional, it’s an ability that can read and manipulate the people’s heart .
However, I don’t know if it’s really such an ability .
Because I don’t know how much truth in what she said and teach about her ability .
It’s the strongest ability amongst communication type .
A person who doesn’t take precautions against her would be playing into her palm .
Because she looked like a child, ordinary person is even more powerless against her .
“I wonder if I kill each and everyone of these people Yoiyami will give up……, But should I test this murderer?”
“……try it . ”
“Ah, so it’s fine . Okaay~ . ”
The moment Desuko-san said that, the owner who came out of the izakaya dropped to his knees and then collapsed there .
“Ah……!”
I screamed unintentionally, but immediately noticed .
Not dead . He’s still breathing, and his heart still beating .
But looking from Yoiyami-san’s position, it must looked like he is really dead .
I’m moved by Desuko-san’s leniency .
Is this the reason she could become Anonymous’s executive?
Tameiki-san’s partner, Desuko-san’s true strength .
“Then, next . ”
As soon as Desuko-san said that, the previous female hall staff comes out of the izakaya .
Same as the owner who came out earlier, her eyes also empty .
This person is also being manipulated by Desuko-san .
“……”
Yoiyami-san closed his mouth .
“I’ll kill her, y’know? Is it okay?”
“……”
Yoiyami-san remains silent .
“……I see . ”
After a while, Desuko-san muttered and snapped her finger again .
With that as a signal, light returned to the eyes of the female hall staff .
“Huh, I……?”
The owner of the izakaya that had fallen nearby also stood up .
“Huh? What am I doing?”
They wore strange expression as they were returning inside the izakaya without worrying about us .
Without understanding anything, I turned my eyes to Roll .
But Roll also seems like she didn’t understand the situation, as she shake her head from side to side .
“……”
Desuko-san’s gaze was not as sharp as before .
“……”
Yoiyami-san retract his killing intent and stood with a face that looked like he gave up . That figure looked powerless, and gives out the feeling of someone who had lost his will to live .
Desuko-san slowly approached that Yoiyami-san .
I and Roll still can’t understand .
Eventually, Desuko-san stopped in front of Yoiyami-san, and said with the same tone as before .
“Yoiyami, you don’t want to kill people anymore, right?”
After a long silence, Yoiyami-san answered with a voice that sounds miserable .
“…… yeah . ”
