Kapitel 272: Chapter 265 : Deception
[Do you want to summon the Champion? [Yes] [No]]
[Yes]
[Preparing Champion Summoning 10...]
"Hehehe Yuki~..."
Trotting and jumping, Yuno twirled closer to the rooftop with each step, eagerly anticipating the summoning of her beloved in just a few seconds.
While she joyfully accepted the system message, she paid little attention to her lurking enemy.
The serial killer observed from a distance. This seemingly defenseless girl, lost in her excitement about her beloved's imminent arrival, was oblivious to his presence.
Her laughter and flushed face made her appear like an enamored girl eager to meet her boyfriend. Despite the bloodied knife in hand, her terrifying actions did nothing to diminish her beauty.
She's only 14, yet well-developed for her age, giving off the appearance of an ordinary girl at first glance.
However, the Third didn't let his guard down. This was abnormal. He knew the Second had seen him, as every attempt to attack her was met with agile dodges and swift runs, all while maintaining her laughter.
She's very skilled...
Moreover, her abnormal behavior convinced the Third that it was a trap.
(How long will you keep smiling....)
Frowning intensely, the serial killer drew his gun, aiming at the girl spinning on her axis.
*Bang, bang
Since he couldn't get close, he could always shoot and kill. It wasn't his preferred style, as he relished personally ending his victims, opening their stomachs and severing limbs – their screams of agony were the most pleasurable, after all.
However, the girl expected the killer to shoot. Swiftly tilting her body, she easily evaded his bullets, as if she knew exactly where they would pass.
This was an impressive calculation of extraordinary trajectory, aided by her Diary. The girl had no trouble dodging; her Diary predicted everything about her, foreseeing her future – a diary that detailed every move, success, and failure.
"Hehehe..."
Seeing her opponent get serious, Yuno wasted no time. She ran and quickly opened the rooftop door.
*Bang, bang
"Damn it."
Firing, the serial killer was displeased with what he saw. This girl was toying with him; she didn't take his firearm seriously. Being a blade user, his marksmanship was terrible, and most of the time, his bullets missed their target. The girl remained unharmed.
Another concern was that his [DEAD END] didn't disappear even with the gun in hand; nothing changed in his future.
This displeased him. His death hour approached, and he still found no trace of his assassin, only this cheerful girl mocking him.
"I have to finish off this brat quickly..."
Discarding his useless weapon, the killer forcefully opened the rooftop door, narrowing his eyes upon seeing the girl with her hands over her chest, tears accumulating in her pink eyes.
Her bloodied knife had long disappeared, and she now wore an expression of pure terror and fear, a stark contrast to her earlier joyful demeanor.
(Is she afraid? No... What is this brat planning?)
But this wasn't the end. Her body bore wounds, and her clothes were soaked in blood.
Her arms displayed knife wounds, her skirt torn, revealing her blood-soaked white skin in a pitiful stance.
Combined with her expression, tears, and the knife-wielding enemy, she seemed like a pitiable girl being pressed, on the verge of violation and murder.
This left the serial killer speechless. He couldn't harm this brat, and it seemed like she was waiting for the police, fabricating false charges against him.
This confused him because the girl didn't hesitate to harm herself. Even if she pleaded for mercy, he would kill her, and there was no one to save her from such an act...
Approaching slowly, the killer scrutinized his surroundings, carefully stepping, searching for traps and bombs. This was too suspicious.
"No.... Don't come closer."
Yuno, on the other hand, moved away and cried in fear. Every step the killer took forward, she took a step back. When he quickened his pace, she fell on her backside, expressing increasing terror.
(What the hell is going on?)
With his heart pounding faster, the killer felt confused and nervous. The girl's display was one he expected, but things weren't going as planned. This girl was clearly acting.
She was trying to blame him, portraying herself as pitiful to someone...
The question is... Who?..
There was no one around.
(This isn't right... I have to finish this brat quickly.)
As his hour approached, the killer no longer hesitated. He raised his knife, attempting to stab her.
But Yuno quickly dodged, allowing the knife to cut her arm slightly. Seeing this, the killer wanted to continue attacking, as this small act proved that no one was there to protect the brat.
"Yuki! Save me!"
[2..1]
[The Champion has been successfully summoned]
Unfortunately, he didn't get that chance. As if responding to her cries for help, a light shone between them, preventing the killer from taking the next step.
"?!?"
Closing his eyes tightly, the killer was forced to jump backward, surprised...by the sudden appearance of a light, and when he opened his eyes again, a boy dressed in black stood between them.

"Hick... Yuki.... Hick"
With Yuki emerging from the light, Yuno quickly capitalized on her pitiful appearance and cried loudly.
"Yuno..."
Yuki, on the other hand, narrowed his eyes, inspecting Yuno's wounded body.
(I made it in time...)
Sighing in relief, Yuki closed his eyes briefly before turning his head to the other person on the rooftop.
Carefully observing the man with a hat and gas mask, Yuki was certain that this was the man intending to kill Yuno. His posture and bloodied knife served as undeniable evidence.
"Yuki... Hick... He wants to kill me, he hurt me a lot... I'm scared, Yuki... He... He...."
Pointing with a trembling finger and tears streaming down, Yuno covered her exposed chest, revealing several wounds beyond her torn clothes.
"It's okay... I'm here. Nothing can harm you."
Embracing her tenderly, Yuki examined her injuries. There were many cuts, but they were not severe. They seemed more like a preparation for the next phase. With Yuno clinging to him, it was evident that she was genuinely frightened.
However, something seemed amiss. Like he missed something.
Shaking his head, Yuki didn't dwell on it. Yuno was injured, and that was the priority now.
"It's done. Stay here, close your eyes, and cover your ears... I'll finish this quickly."
"Yes, Yuki..."
After healing her wounds, Yuki pulled a blanket from his shadow, covering her exposed body. Simultaneously, he glared at the man with the mask with a mixture of disdain and disgust.
While Yuno blushed and lowered her head in shyness.
"I don't know who you are, and I don't care. But if you dare to harm my friend, you'll pay..."
Advancing slowly, Yuki cracked his knuckles. He needed to break every bone in the man's body.
On the other hand, the killer was too surprised to speak. He was about to kill the Second, but this kid came out of nowhere. Opening his eyes wide, he saw how the boy healed the girl in seconds.
Though he wanted to scorn and laugh at the boy flexing his knuckles, he couldn't. The heterochromatic eyes of this child sent intense fear through his body, as if he was facing his natural predator.
(This is bad... I have to run!)
Without a second thought, the killer turned around, but before he could run, he heard the sound of something breaking, accompanied by a thud as he fell to the ground.
