SSS-Class Plunderer Chapter 7

That's right, a teenager.

She had a sculpted figure of a goddess. Her hair was mercury-red and it tumbled over her shoulders, together with blue eyes and velvety eyelashes.

In other words, she's beautiful.

'Hmm… how will I handle this.'

She's a teenager, probably about 16-18 years old. Although she is considered Awakened, as long as she is still a minor then she's protected by the law so killing her will be considered murder.

But.

'She's here to kill me. What can I do?'

It's not like he can just let this go right? He's stupid sometimes but he's not a fool. If someone wants his life then it's pretty obvious he'll retaliate.

And since it has come to this

'Then I'll kill you as well.'

Steeling his mind, Hans activated his skill. Red mana surrounded him again covering every part of his body. Thankfully, killing is not new to him and it felt like he's been used to this.

Just as Hans was about to attack.

Swish—

The woman sprinted towards Hans wielding a dagger in both hands before slashing it to his weak point.

Slash—

In the blink of an eye, the thing that arrived at his neck was the mana-coated dagger intending to kill him with a throat slit.

'Fast!'

Taken by surprise, Hans quickly evaded to the side before doing a back kick as a response.

Bam—

The woman fling to the wall, throwing off every appliance on her path.

Thud—

Hans quickly turn around and picked both daggers that were thrown to the ground before shifting his sight to the woman limping in pain.

At that moment.

The woman raised her head which was covered by her red hair, her bones made a clicking sound as she tried to get up from the cracked wall.

'Argh.'

She placed her hand on her abdomen which was solidly kicked by her target and it still hurting until now. If not for the false information, it wouldn't have come to this.

'Those bastards said that his strength is like a regular human!'

So what is this? He's clearly strong enough to contend with her. If not for that guy still recuperating then perhaps she's been dead by now.

A legit fraud!

The woman gritted her teeth as she slowly remembered the face of those men who hired her.

'I'll pay you back later.' She muttered softly before glaring at Hans.

No matter how one looked at it, this guy is clearly not an ordinary Awakened, that's for sure.

At that moment.

Just before she got up to make a counterattack, Hans swiftly dashed and leap high from the ground, positioned in a kicking stance.

Pow—

Crack—

Hans's foot strikes her head.

Crack—

Caught off guard, she tried to deviate by gripping Hans' foot but his strength was too much for her to make it happen.

The wall behind completely shattered exposing the neighboring ward which was occupied by an old man patient in it.

Crieek—

Her face was rubbed to the ground until it slowly burned due to friction.

At the same time, Hans tumbled sideways after he landed, before wrapping his leg around the woman's right arm locking her in a shoulder lock position.

"Argggh!!! Stop!!!"

However, it seems like Hans didn't hear what she said, and instead his grip strength increase which made the girl shriek in pain more.

"Argggghhhh!!!"

If one looks closely, Hans's eyes were different from his usual blue eyes which were now blood red with red streaks in his eye slit.

"Please!!!"

The girl tapped her left hand strongly until…

*Sfx for bones breaking*

Kuuk—

"Ahhhhhh!!!"

In the meantime, Hans frowned before quickly losing his grip, clueless.

'W-what?!'

He didn't know why he did that. It's as if his mind is telling him that punishing her is the right choice. If put into words, it's as if… someone is coaching him on what to do.

'I did break her arm.'

Looking at the deformed right hand of the girl, Hans made an ugly expression. Since it has come to this, then he should back off as well. He adjusted himself lightly before he got up tiredly but his sight remained at the woman.

'Did I overdo it?'

She's clearly in tremendous pain right now. What can he do to help her though? He's tired as well.

'Ayo, she's pitiful. I should call a doctor right now.'

"Arggghhh!! Help, please help!"

The girl raised her head at Hans while pleading for help, as the pain of her bones breaking assaulted her senses. No, her bones didn't break rather it felt like it shattered.

'Argghh!! Mama.'

If she was given another chance, she'd rather continue being a normal Awakened than being a hired assassin.

But what she saw horrified her.

There, Hans stood still, looking at her with an evil smile as the dagger he held was suspended above her head.

...….

*Sfx of sounds of people running*

"Oh my god, what happened here!?"

The nurses and doctors look at the messy place and shattered wall of the hospital room in surprise.

A girl was lying sprawled on the floor, unconscious, while her right arm was in a deformed position with blood spots from everywhere.

Not only that, but the ward is also full of debris and dust.

"Quick, send her to the ER!"

"Be careful of her arm!"

"Yes, doc."

The nurses together with the doctor help the girl to put her on a stretcher. Due to the commotion, more hospital staff arrived at the scene.

Just like the first few nurse and doctors who arrived early, they were surprised at what they saw as well.

"What happened here? Why is there a girl in this ward!?"

"It looks like there's a fight doc."

"Awakened?"

"Looks like it."

Two people lifted the stretcher off the floor and quickly rushed the girl to the emergency room leaving the other patient, the old man, in their sights.

But what they saw made their eyes wide.

Beep—

"Patient Greg Valley's, heart rate is dropping!!"

The old man's heart rate suddenly dropped which made the entire hospital staff into chaos again but just a few moments later they stabilize the situation.

Indeed, they are professionals.

Fortunately, doctors and nurses were coincidentally in that room so they quickly gave him the right aid.

In just a few minutes, the patient heart rate stabilizes as well.

"The patient vital sign is back to being a stable doc."

The nurse reported as she carefully examined the old man. The doctor spat a sigh of relief as he tidied his messy coat. Thankfully, it's now over.

'Wait!'

That's right! there's a patient in the next room and not an ordinary one at that.

He heard that even the DMD deputy head visits this ward. It's obvious that the patient here is an important figure or else the association wouldn't pay attention to him at all.

The doctor hastily made his way to the other side of the room. Due to his eagerness, he didn't even use the front door but instead he went straight into the broken wall on the side of the ward.

'What in the hell happened here?'

Did the fight start here?

He saw pieces of appliances and debris thrown at the ground while the chairs and tables were flipped upside down. The shattered glasses crunched under his feet as his gaze wandered around the room.

But the room is quite dim probably because the fluorescent light was broken as well. The doctor turned his head so he could look behind and shouted at the two nurses who just finished checking the old man.

"Amanda! Request for a room transfer."

"Yes, doc!"

"Donna! Come here!"

"On my way, doc."

Next, the nurse followed through the room. Well, she entered through the broken wall as well.

"Do you have your phone with you? I need a flashlight."

Nurse Donna pulled her phone from her pocket before tapping the flashlight button. She raised her hand and moved her hands left and right.

'What happened here?'

Just like the doctor, she was shocked at the messy ward of the patient. She knows how the room looks like as she was the nurse who check the patient here every day. She sometimes saw Felix Adams, sitting on the chair near the bed while conversing with the room's patient. It's given that the patient here is a very important one.

Next, the light shifted towards the patient's bed but… the patient is not there.

'W-where?' the doctor inwardly raised his voice in panic.

Fortunately, the light shined near the couch, or else they wouldn't see a silhouette of the patient at all. Their eyes followed where the light shined in. There, the patient was lying on the couch snoring softly in his sleep.

'Whew.'

Seeing this, the doctor sigh in relief. He almost scared himself to death thinking that something wrong might have happened to the patient. Fortunately, he's well and just sleeping soundly.

Click, click—

They approach the patient before the doctor turned to Donna.

"What's the patient's name?"

Donna lowered her gaze to the hospital chart from her hands as she started finding the room number.

'Room 303, Patient Valley Greg… Here!'

"Room 304, Patient Luther Hans."

'So he's Hans?'

The doctor in charge nodded. Due to his moniker, Hans was also popular with ordinary civilians like them. But the doctor was bewildered as Hans is an F-Class Awakened so why is the association visit him from time to time?

He can only mutter this in his heart as the hospital staff arrived inside the room with the same reaction just like the other two.

"Transfer him to Room 422, and send me his vital signs after."

"Understood doc."

Two men tapped Hans's shoulder, trying to wake him up. Since the first tap didn't work, they tried it once more.

Tap—

"Doc, can you wake him up?"

"You bastards."

The two men can only chuckle in embarrassment. Their grandfather used to beat them up every time they wake him up from his good sleep. Looks like they got PTSD when waking other people.

Seeing that tapping didn't work, the doctor shakes Hans lightly instead.

Yawn—

Sigh—

At that moment, the patient, Hans, eyelash fluttered as his eyes slowly opened.

"Yawn— hello, what's the matter?"

Hearing his words, all the hospital staff present exchanged meaningful glances before shifting their gaze back to Hans.

Man, look at your messy room! Why does it seem like you have no idea what happened!?

......….

Next morning.

Huff—

Hans's eyes narrowed with his body being on the floor while doing push-ups. He groaned every time he completed one set as he recalled what happened last night.

But what bothers him is his sudden ruthlessness in which he didn't know where it came from.

'I know in myself, that I wouldn't do that.'

Huff—

These past few days he's been feeling something has changed within him. Although it's just a bit, it's still a change. His sudden urge to kill that girl drove him to the conclusion that something is affecting his mind. Well, she still deserves it for what she'd done.

'Fortunately, I controlled it.'

No, perhaps it's because the influence is weak. What if it's strong instead? Can he stop it? He's not sure if he can stop it next time.

'This is really bad but.'

As long as he is given time perhaps he can control that sudden urge before it completely influences his thinking.

Huff—

Groaning, Hans raised his head to the news being broadcast on the television. It's about the event that will happen in the next few months of the year.

But the highlight of the news is the global awakeners gathering that will happen a month from now.

'Wouldn't this be bad news?'

Hans doesn't know what the people are thinking. Organizing a gathering then broadcasting it worldwide is a blunder move. Other aggressive races such as the demons and vampires can take advantage of this gathering and wipe the awakened in one fell swoop, so why do this?

Huff—, huff—

'Well, it doesn't matter.'

This occasion has nothing to do with him and maybe this was just a gimmick to lure those enemies out. Even if this succeeds, it has nothing to do with him after all he wouldn't be invited to this gathering, right?

Pant—pant—

For now, what he urgently needs is to adjust his condition back to the peak before planning his goals onward.

Since there's a chance that he can grow stronger, then he wouldn't let this opportunity go to waste.

'Endless Plunder huh.'

It started with this skill so he'll use it to the fullest.

'Hans Luther, the plunderer of skills?'

Hans chuckled at the thought of being called with that title. Looking back at his experience, perhaps there's a chance. Well, trying wouldn't hurt anyway right?

But man, seriously, this skill is kind of sus to him.
