Chapter 67
[The Shadow’s Judgment]
A prefabricated house in the factory square was turned into rubble .
Above it is Sen, a member of the Nursery Rhyme .
With that rubble as the background, Midou Ryuusui is heading towards the place we are hiding behind of .
“I’ll go . ”
The one who said that and moved was Chiyaku-san .
Before I could stop her, she appeared in front of Midou Ryusuui .
Chiyaku-san threw a glance at me for a moment .
Her gaze made me stop .
I feel that she’s telling me not to come .
Chiyaku-san, who stood in front of Midou Ryuusui, put a mask in front of him .
Then, she put her hand inside the pocket of her white coat and looked at the enemy in front of her casually .
“It’s been a while, Ryuusui . ”
“You are… Senjiya Kusuri…!”
I was surprised at the words that came out of their mouth .
Chiyaku-san and Midou Ryuusui . They are an acquaintance huh .
Senjiya Kusuri…that is probably Chiyaku-san’s real name .
“…as I thought, you are in Anonymous huh . ”
“Yeah, that’s right . ”
“Why did you betray the Self-Defense Force…”
I frown .
Betrayed the Self-Defense Force…? Was Chiyaku-san originally a part of the Self-Defense Force…?
Then, why is she in Anonymous…
No, but if it’s Boss, it’s likely for him to headhunt member from the Self-Defense Force .
I turned my eyes to Chiyaku-san . I couldn’t see her expression, but Chiyaku-san was silent .
“Answer me! Senjiya!”
The Midou Ryuusui’s bellow echoed . That Midou Ryuusui is angry with his emotions bared .
The surrounding wind went astir, and cloud of dust fluttered .
“The way you speak to me has become like that huh, Ryuusui?”
“…”
“If it wasn’t for me, all the higher-ups today would already be in the other world, right . ”
Chiyaku-san smiled and shrugged .
Then Chiyaku-san pulls out her hand from her pocket . A scalper was in her hand .
…She’s serious .
Midou Ryuusui quickly got into stance .
Even though he didn’t get into stance like that when he faced us, it seems that he’s quite wary of Chiyaku-san .
…Perhaps that’s how strong Chiyaku-san is .
Despite being a medical specialist, Chiyaku-san is an Anonymous executive . I didn’t think she was weak, but I didn’t think she could fight .
Chiyaku-san’s ability is accelerated healing ‘Accelerator Heal’ .
It is literally an ability to accelerate healing .
It is an ability that is not suitable for battle at all, but why is Midou Ryuusui so vigilant?
I can’t predict what will happen in this situation .
When I was thinking about such a thing, I heard a voice from Boss .
“Chiyaku, just holds Midou Ryuusui for a bit .
Byakurei will kill the teleportation ability user who was behind him and we will join you .
It’s a change of plan . We will kill Midou Ryuusui there .
Shion, keep relaying the situation . ”
“I understand . ”
The sound is transmitted to Chiyaku-san through me .
They will do it here, huh…
No sound is approaching .
What happened to the other Nursery Rhyme guy? Did he die fighting Midou Ryuusui?
“Well fine, it’s not like I can’t tell you why I left the Self-Defense Force . ” Chiyaku-san put her hand in her pocket again and said .
Because there was a command from Boss, I think she decided to buy time by talking .
“…”
Midou Ryuusui didn’t put down his stance . I gulped .
“What, don’t you want to hear it?”
“…about the occupation a while ago, you guys are planning something, right?”
…This, perhaps he had noticed something .
It is strange that Chiyaku-san is here in the first place .
He didn’t conclude it only based on his feeling . But, even Midou Ryuusui wouldn’t think that it is a plan to kill himself .
Despite being vigilant, he is one step behind .
“It seems you can’t answer that . ”
Midou Ryuusui slowly approached Chiyaku-san without putting down his stance .
Chiyaku-san slowly put her hand out of her pocket .
Still, there is a silver scalpel in her hand .
“Now that I think about it, you don’t have to listen now . Let’s talk slowly at the base . ” She said, and the one who moved first was Midou Ryuusui .
With a *gon* winds are blown to Chiyaku-san .
Chiyaku-san was flown into the air like a paper .

What I saw in the air was fresh blood .
Blood was dancing . Chiyaku-san’s scalpel is dyed red .
I certainly saw it . Chiyaku-san cut her wrist with the scalpel .
Midou Ryuusui, who was approaching Chiyaku-san in order to pursue her, saw it and retreated quickly to the back, landing softly on the ground .
Chiyaku-san who flew off also landed on the ground after a delay .
The blood that she shed previously floated around her .
What is that…
“…what a troublesome ability . ” Midou Ryuusui muttered .
I’m certain .
That is obviously not Accelerator Heal .
That’s a different ability .
Chiyaku-san, is a duplicate ability user ‘Skill Repeater’…!
But what kind of ability is that?
From how it looks, it seems to be a blood controlling ability .
However, I wonder why Midou Ryuusui be that wary of that?
“I haven’t used this ability for a long time .
It’s very tiring . ”
“Well said…”
Suddenly, wind blew from behind Midou Ryuusui . As a result, the rubbles are fired to Chiyaku-san like a bullet .
The rubble bullets released along with the dust cloud became an inescapable barrage .
At that time, a red membrane spreads in front of Chiyaku-san .
A blood shield .
I thought how she could block them with such a thing, but all the rubbles that hit the blood membrane smashed and fell to the ground .
How strong .
However, in the meantime, Midou Ryuusui is going around behind Chiyaku-san .
It seems that the rubble attack was just a feint .
He swung his hand up strongly, and swung it back down .
I noticed late that Midou Ryuusui was shooting a wind slash at that moment, but Chiyaku-san was already showing evasive action at that time .
The slashing attack cuts through the ground while heading for Chiyaku-san .
Chiyaku-san jumps up and dodge the slash .
Midou Ryuusui continues to shoot slashes from a long distance .
Chiyaku-san who floated in the air nimbly dodged the slashes like cotton .
A slashing attack that seemed to be unavoidable grazed Chiyaku-san’s cheek .
The blood droplets split in the air, changed their shape, and eventually became scalpels .
Bloody scalpels pour down from the sky to Midou Ryuusui .

Midou Ryuusui danced in the air and dodge them .
When Chiyaku-san lands, once again, she throws countless scalpels at Midou Ryuusui, who floats in the sky .
The thrown scalpels can’t reach Midou Ryuusui .
Midou Ryuusui evaded the scalpels trajectory by using the wind and managed to avoided them .
Midou Ryuusui shoots a wind slash from the sky .
Chiyaku-san received the slash on her arm .
Chiyaku-san’s severed arm dances in the air . Along with a lot of blood .
Chiyaku-san grabbed the severed arm and crouched .
A follow up slashes flies right there without a moment’s delay . This time from all directions .
Chiyaku-san made a sphere of blood membrane while crouching and blocked everything .
The number of slashes does not cause the sphere to budge . Is it because the amount of blood has increased?
When the slashing attacks stopped after a while, the sphere crumble down like a gooey and the figure of Chiyaku-san appeared there .
Chiyaku-san swung the severed arm in her hand toward Midou Ryuusui .
*zan* and the spilled blood became a slash and flew away .
“…!!”
Midou Ryuusui is already prepared in place and dodge it .
The factory at the back was vertically divided .
That flying blood slash flew from the ground to Midou Ryuusui .
The blood that flew like a slash is scattered by the gusts of wind released by Midou Ryuusui .
Chiyaku-san attaches her severed right arm to her shoulder .
Then, after a while, she released it, and her right arm was attached .
“It’s impossible even after using this much blood, huh . It seems like I can’t beat you . ”
She said scooping the blood left on her cheeks .
And even the scar on her cheek is already gone .
The blood adhered to her finger separate from her hand as if oozing to the air, and floats in the air .
The scattered blood of the slashing attack also gathers at her .
Midou Ryuusui looks down on her figure from above .
“Be serious and come kill me, Ryuusui . ”
…I see, Midou Ryuusui is planning to capture Chiyaku-san alive, huh .
That means that he has a handicap .
“I am serious . ”
At Midou Ryuusui’s words, Chiyaku-san shrugs .
Her expression seems to indicate that she still has a leeway, but she already lost a considerable amount of blood .
That ability seems to put a considerable burden on herself .

“I don’t understand . ” Midou Ryuusui continued .
“About what?” Chiyaku-san smiled a little . Probably because Midou Ryuusui was continuing the conversation himself .
“Why did you use such power for Anonymous . You were said to be the strongest military doctor, so why did you betray the Self-Defense Force?”
The strongest military doctor .
It is certainly convincing even if she is called that way when you watch the current battle .
“It’s the opposite . I was skeptical about using this power for the Self-Defense Force . ”
“Why . What do you gain by being in Anonymous?”
“Surely, there are many people who can be saved with this power . In fact, I have saved many lives .
But that’s it . ”
“What do you mean by ‘that’s it’? Besides surely, there must be a meaning, right . ”
“It’s not a matter of gain or loss, Ryuusui . And it doesn’t matter whether it’s good or evil . ”
The area is getting darker and darker . The light from the broken factory didn’t lit up .
“Because I am me, I do what I want to do . ”
Silence dominated the place .
Midou Ryuusui slowly landed on the ground .
“In order for humans to live, at a minimum, they must obey the established order and rules .
By no means that I judge that is something that needs to be forced .
Nevertheless, the guys who can’t do that are trash who deserves death all together . ” said Midou Ryuusui .
I can tell that his killing intent is gradually increasing .
*gokkuri* I gulped .
“Will you bastards (Anonymous) continue to kill a lot of people in that way?”
“Please ask that to Hyde directly . ”
I saw Chiyaku-san put her hand in her pocket .
I concentrate on the surrounding sounds .
I can hear 6 heartbeats .
They were gathering in the evening factory district .
Anonymous’s executives .
The 6 people excluding Utsusemi-san, and Boss who is their leader .
…Code name, Hyde .
On the collapsed fence, on the roof of the factory that was cut off, on the prefabricated house rubbles…they stood around Midou Ryuusui .
“The rules and order in this rotten world are laughable after all . ” Desuko-san’s voice resounded .
“…I see, your aim is . ”
Next, Midou Ryuusui’s voice resounded . The voice was slightly faint .
“If you have any last question, ask it . Midou Ryuusui . ”
Then, Boss’ voice resounded .
