They could not see the scattering particles clearly, but this was not a phenomenon that Narsiel and Vanessa could understand with the scientific knowledge that they had.

Narsiel hara.s.sed Hector for the information that she wanted, and Vanessa got some information from Odelia’s corpse.

“The body temperature is being maintained. It hasn’t been long since she died. He could be nearby.”

Odelia’s corpse is not warm but it is not cold either.

A lot of time had pa.s.sed in Benukiz’s case, so her corpse was already in the deterioration process.

Vanessa turned her body and approached Narsiel. She elongated her fingernail and cut Hector’s brother’s arm off without any hesitation.

Ack!

“Where is he? If you tell me, I’ll let him live.”

“I’ll – I’ll tell! I’ll tell you everything I – I know! Just let my brother live!”

Vanessa stopped moving. Hector relayed everything he had seen and felt. But Vanessa was not satisfied.

What was it?

It felt like the essentials were missing. It was hard to guess who it was.

Eyes full of despair – Vanessa saw the truth in those eyes.

Mutants can sense others feelings, whether it is a thirst for blood or hostility.

It seemed like he really had told her everything he knew. That’s why she was annoyed.

They had come here without delay. But their youngest had still died.

What would they say to their mother?

They cannot go back empty-handed.

‘If, perchance….. he’s near. If he’s watching us.’

There was no sign of him.

If he has the ability to kill Benukiz and Odelia unilaterally, of course they cannot find his location by sense.

“I will rip a limb from those two in intervals from now on. They will live if you appear in front of us, and they will die if you hide.”

Since they do not have an accurate watch to calculate the time for them, she intends on waiting by feeling it out.

Vanessa started with cutting the younger brother’s arm.

When it became time, the other arm was cut off. Blood comes out.

He is hanging on right now because of his body modifications, but he will only last minutes at most once his legs are cut off because of excessive bleeding. After all, blood is not unlimited.

‘I can’t go out.’

Cha Jun Sung was watching Vanessa, but he did not go out.

While playing Life Mission, he had become numb to the death of others and knew that his life was more precious.

He did enough for them. He will not do something useless like acting on feelings.

‘I would’ve crushed it already if I could have, but this is crazy in so many aspects.’

Cha Jun Sung looks up at the Heavy Gravity floating in the air. If he could, he would use all of his power to crush that imposing figure. Odin said that there are small gravity fields nearby beyond those spread out on the ground to protect the gas.

The s.p.a.ce is distorted under the immense pressure, and any object that tries to force its way through will be crushed.

Whether used for offense or defense, it is the ultimate airborne weapon that Life Mission’s scientific vortex could create. The only thing that could work in his favor is that it cannot maintain its state for a long period of time, but that is just Odin’s guess. The procedure to activate that weapon is complicated, even for the 2nd officer.

Woong!

While Cha Jun Sung focused on Narsiel and Vanessa, Odin kept an eye on the Heavy Gravity and tried to connect to the system but there was no use. The 2nd officer had placed restrictions on the system. This means that only the general manager and 3 executives can connect to it. There is no way for a helper to get through.

Zing!

When Odin attempted to connect, a part of the Heavy Gravity suddenly opened and a large, round bar came out. It is a gunport.

[Lifer Cha Jun Sung, get away no…..]

Boom boom!

A few bombs fall from the open gunport. They did not hit Cha Jun Sung directly. It was just a threatening shooting nearby. Odin had not been able to finish his sentence, and Cha Jun Sung was surrounded by a loud roar and dust. The serious issue was somewhere else.

“Sister.”

“Is that where he’s hiding?”

Papat!

Vanessa calls out with certainty. Narsiel raced to where there had been a change. It was a distance of hundreds of meters, but that did not matter.

When Narsiel arrived, she spread her senses wide.

The first sense to react was her hearing. The roar of a devil bursting out from the hazy dust. Narsiel’s body trembles slightly. Rather than feeling fear, her skin is reacting to the intrinsic aura held in that roar. Was what killed her sisters not a human, but a mutant?

Boom!

Cha Jun Sung activates his battlesuit and gets rid of the dust. He barely held on to his sanity and came back to his senses. He nearly awakened. Until now, he did not express it even if he felt rage.

It was because it had been bearable. But this time, his mind was blank. What could be the purpose of letting mutants know of his location? He was full of an impulse to split the head of whoever was doing this to him to pull out his brain. He had lost all trust.

[Li – Lifer Cha Jun Sung….. What happened…..]

Cha Jun Sung had removed a part of his battlesuit to stop Odin from figuring out the state of his body and realizing that he has become a mutant.

But he had not been able to suppress a moment of rage, and half awakened while inside the battlesuit. So it seems Odin realized that something is weird. But what can be done. There is no use crying over spilt milk. It already happened and there is no way to undo it. He needs to just push forward.

There had been no external change because he had not awakened completely.

When Cha Jun Sung ignored him, Odin put his questions to the side and prepared to support him in the coming battle. Getting through this is first.

“I’m going to rip all of them apart! Those b.i.t.c.hes! And those b.a.s.t.a.r.ds! All of them!”

Cha Jun Sung looked at Narsiel and Vanessa in front of him and the Heavy Gravity in the air, and then rushed at Narsiel. He is omitting introductions with his attack.

“Was it a human? Then what about that roar just now? I’m certain that was a mutant.”

“Shut up and die!”

Cha Jun Sung moved without stepping, and pulled Hades out first. The Overmode flashes through the s.p.a.ce by way of the Overbooster. He is now right in front of Narsiel, who had been standing on a wreck.

And as soon as he approached her, he gave off the energy of one who intends to slash her up, while brandis.h.i.+ng Hades in the air. It results in a strong air pressure. Narsiel, who is only in a half awakened state, is half a beat late in reacting but she is not Odelia. She cannot avoid it. She has to get hit. She will get hit enough to avoid a fatal wound.

Narsiel compresses her body and retreats. She waves around like a leaf flying in the wind. Hades grazes Narsiel. A wound formed on her entire body, but it was not severe because she had been injured with the intention of taking the hit. And there was something Narsiel believed in.

“You’re paying too much attention to me.”

“What?”

He can feel movement behind him. He can tell who it is without looking. It is Vanessa. Cha Jun Sung ground his teeth as he stopped his attack.

He held Hades inversely and stabbed it between his upper arm.

“That doesn’t mean you should underestimate me.”

“d.a.m.n it!”

Bang!

While his attention was elsewhere, Narsiel swung her thick arm and hit Cha Jun Sung. He plummeted to the ground under the tremendous shock.

Is it because they’re sisters? It seems they are good at pa.s.sing. Cha Jun Sung had been unable to prepare himself because he had not encountered anything like this in the virtual version either.

Cha Jun Sung cleared off the wreck as he stood up. Narsiel smiles as she watches this. Her expression is that one of watching something fun and interesting.

“Are you okay?”

“That was dangerous. That guy isn’t a human.”

“Are you saying that because of the roar?”

“You’ll know when you see.”

Narsiel and Vanessa stand together. They did not think that Cha Jun Sung would die from a hit to the face. He will be fine.

“Look here, human.”

“Oh! Great. I’m supposed to kill anyone, whoever, right?”

“Human.”

“Stop calling me, you disgusting mutant.”

“What do you think?”

“Definitely….. There’s no way he would have understood what we’re saying if he were human.”

Cha Jun Sung was about to tell them to stop talking nonsense, but suddenly glared his eyes. Bells go off in his head. Narsiel and Vanessa are not speaking in English like Odelia had been. They are speaking in mutant language. But Cha Jun Sung had understood it.

Narsiel had not been able to understand him because he had spoken in Korean, but they knew that he had understood. The few words of dialogue exchanged during a short battle. Narsiel found the crucial point among the confusion of Korean and mutant language.

“Odin.”

[I’ll hear the explanation later.]

“Ah….. Is this why they say that stupid people shouldn’t even lie?”

He let out the secret he had been hiding because he had become over excited with rage. How bothersome will it become from now on? Will they hara.s.s him to test him?

“How did you know?”

“I tried it out just to see what would happen after hearing the roar, and you just understood it.”

He had fallen for it. Cha Jun Sung thought that Narsiel might be much smarter than he is. If that b.i.t.c.h had been a person, she would have gotten the n.o.bel Prize.

Vanessa takes a few steps forward. All of a sudden, Narsiel had taken a step back. Cha Jun Sung thought it was attack and took position.

“I’ll ask you a question. Did you kill Odelia?”

“Yeah, I did it. Don’t worry. I’ll kill the both of you soon too.”

Vanessa asks in English. The human language is more precise in expression. Cha Jun Sung responds to Vanessa’s question. He speaks in Korean, but it is automatically translated to English through his translator.

“And Benukiz?”

“The 3rd daughter? Your little sister?”

“So it’s right.”

“What’s right? What are you talking about?”

What is she talking about, asking about Benukiz all of a sudden while talking about Odelia? Hang on. Does that mean Benukiz is dead? And the perpetrator is himself?

“Benukiz is dead?”

“Don’t act as if you don’t know. I know you killed Benukiz and then Odelia. We came here because we thought you might be here, and we were right.”

Narsiel’s voice becomes low. She is like a venomous snake full of poison.

His question had been answered. He had been wondering why there wasn’t a mission with Benukiz, but his theory that she was already dead was right.

But they had something wrong. Cha Jun Sung has never met Benukiz. He never even saw her shadow.

“How funny. If I got caught for killing Odelia, I would say that I killed Benukiz too if I killed her. Why would I hide that? Are you going to go easier on me?”

Cha Jun Sung taunts them. Vanessa frowns because he makes sense. He is giving off the air of someone who is ready to kill them.

It’s strange that he is denying killing Benukiz in this situation.

“The traces left on her corpse are the same as the ones you left on Odelia. So much so that it looks like they were done by the same person.”

Narsiel adds to the explanation that the wounds were made by a human, not a mutant. Was it someone who uses a sword? A level A Lifer? Maybe level S?

Cha Jun Sung starts thinking. He is the first Lifer to open up level A. There is no doubt about this. However, Life Mission is expansive. Someone could have appeared after him. On top of that, the system is a complete mess. It wouldn’t be weird for something to happen, whether it is a bug or an error.

‘Maybe?’

Black Demon told him that the one he needs to meet in order to kill Evil Queen went over to North America. Did he kill her? That is possible.

“Aha! I think I know who it was.”

“Who is it?”

Narsiel was still sure that Cha Jun Sung is the perpetrator, but not Vanessa. No matter how she thought about it, there is no reason for him to lie about this.

“Do you guys know if I tell you who it is? Not even I know exactly who it is.”

Do they want his name? His nationality? Cha Jun Sung doesn’t know the specifics, but they wouldn’t matter to the mutants anyway.

A playful smile forms on Cha Jun Sung’s face. It isn’t visible because of his helmet, but he’s had an idea of how to play with those two.

“I don’t know who it is, but I think I know why he killed Benukiz. And what he wants. Even what he’ll do going forward!”

This he knows for sure. So he is going to tell them. Something beyond force is necessary in order to overpower the enemy. For example….. swaying their minds?

“Tell us and we’ll let you live.”

“Who are you trying to scam? A mutant making a promise? Don’t be stupid. And who are you two to let me live or die? You’re weak.”

Cha Jun Sung hurt Narsiel’s ego. Vanessa just watched. She must know about the person who killed Benukiz before they kill Cha Jun Sung.

The 3rd and 4th daughters are weak. Narsiel could take both of them on alone. Even if she could not win, she could create a close match. She herself is confident she could take on 3.

“Evil Queen.”

“What?”

“His goal is to kill Evil Queen. I tried drafting a basic mental picture. It seems he got what he wants, and now that he has what he wants, he left.”

When Benukiz died in Louisiana, Narsiel and Vanessa came all the way to Odelia. Evil Queen’s protection has become weak.

“We’ve met by chance, but it looks like he wanted to distract you. Look look. Isn’t your mother alone as a result?”

Cha Jun Sung stopped repressing his original nature. He had a fairly serious personality when he was a human, but he started to be faithful to his instincts when he became a mutant.

“Hah! A human killing our mother? A mere human?”

“I don’t know if he is a human or a mutant either. I just know his goal.”

“I don’t care what species he is. Mother is great! Everything is a trivial insect in front of her. He’ll be crushed into a handful of dust.”

“Try thinking if you have a brain. Benukiz died shamefully like Odelia, right? I can tell by the way you’re talking about it. There’s no way she’s weak since she’s your sister. That must mean the opponent had that much strength, right?”

Vanessa’s eyes narrow as she listens. They’re discussing the opponent’s strength?

“I hope he leaves her injured if he can’t manage to kill her.”

“Why?”

“What do you mean why? I intend on killing you two here and then going to slice her up.”

Bang!

As soon as he spoke, he pulled out Hades and jumped forward. The scene has already been set. All that’s left is to kill them.

Bang bang bang bang!

The middle of Austin. Unrecognizable figures keep colliding. Each time they collide, the atmosphere changes. The sky falls and the ground is turned over. That is how incredible the aftermath is.

Everything near the point of collision is crushed pitifully. Everything, whether it is a building or a car. The only things that are fine are themselves. The battle is 2 against 1 – 2 are focusing their attacks against 1. On top of that, it looks like 2 strong mutants against a weak looking human.

Boom!

Cha Jun Sung is wearing a fully remodeled battlesuit, and reaches almost 2.5m in size. It is not a small size, but he looks smaller than a child compared to Narsiel and Vanessa. It is a difference that must be taken into account in the fight.

The 2 mutants, Narsiel in particular is twice as large as Vanessa, are considered medium sized mutants. Their enormous size did not make Cha Jun Sung back off. If he were to be scared off by their size in the first place, he would have surrendered to Odelia as well. Physical appearances are not indicative of their ability to fight.

Papapat!

Cha Jun Sung used his pet.i.te size to bring a battle of speed. The ability to overhead a battlesuit, it is one of the Overbooster’s strong points.

There is no way to predict the result of the battle. It is not visible which side is at an advantage and which is at a disadvantage.

‘I’m going to go crazy.’

With attacks coming from everywhere, the world he sees from the battlesuit is dizzying. There is no comparison to when he was going up against Odelia. They are easily stronger by half.

The more annoying thing is that two of them are coming at him. Just because there are two of them does not mean that there is twice the pressure. It may be due to the fact that they are sisters, but they are well coordinated. Narsiel takes Cha Jun Sung’s attacks with her ma.s.sive body, and Vanessa skillfully hits and falls back.

If he gets one back, the other comes in. They are not an easy opponent because he cannot win with one attack.

The battle method Narsiel and Vanessa are using against Cha Jun Sung is what they can do to take on a single opponent two against one.

He is just one person, so the pressure is indescribable.

That is why it feels like he is going up against three and not two. They know each other well, so they compensate for the other’s lacking aspects.
