Chapter 550: The confused hitman

Chapter 550: The confused hitman

"A little. Well... I just wanted to remind you not to underestimate that boy named Eiji Seiya. Do you know Azenda the Tyrant?"

"I know that woman."

"She died at his hands. Or rather, she died just from touching his hand."

That was the moment when Eiji used the authority of pride from Re: Zero. Because of this ability, Azenda was blown to pieces just for shaking hands with him.

The two people who were talking didn't know of course.

Still, the man showed no fear and was not surprised at all. His handsome face was still expressionless, worthy of being a hitman no less famous than Yami.

He regarded himself as the 'arbitrator of the universe'.

Even he himself was the one who freed Yami and Mea from the Eden organization.

He destroyed that organization and had fought with Yami in the past. As for who was the winner in that fight? I don't know.

The original work doesn't explain the flashback of that fight clearly.

"From what you said, Eiji Seiya seems really strong and dangerous. Even so... Don't equate me with Azenda."

"Our fighting styles are different. If I can't touch that boy, I just need to kill him from a distance."

"That corresponds to my specialty."

The woman on the other side laughed and said, "Since you have such confidence, that's good. I'm counting on you to kill that boy, Kuro"

The man's name was Kuro.

Yami and Eiji would be familiar if they heard his name.

Kuro's lips twitched when he heard what the other party said.

To be honest, he felt that something was wrong with this mission.

Not because Eiji Seiya was the target.

But the identity of the person who hired him.

"It feels a bit strange to hear those words from a Transforming Weapon who should be good at killing people like me. You even hired me to kill someone."

"That means I'm not capable of it myself. Don't think too much, Kuro."

*Beep beep!*

The phone call was ended by her.

Kuro did not say anything else.

He put back his communication device and jumped over the rooftops.

The direction he was heading was the same direction towards Kuoh Academy.

At the same time.

On one of the rooftops of a deserted school building and there were only two people there. Those two people were Mea and her master, Nemesis who was now in her loli form.

Judging from the anxious expression of the former and the sly smile of the latter.

That's right, the person who had just finished talking to Kuro and hired him was Nemesis!

"Master, are you sure this will go according to our plan?" Mea asked. It wasn't that she was worried about the safety of Eiji who was Kuro's target. After all, she herself knew how strong the boy was after knowing him so far.

Their goal also wasn't really to kill Eiji.

They even tricked Kuro into...

"Don't worry, Mea. Are you underestimating your master's acting skills? You should worry about your own acting skills."

"When you seduced Eiji after school before. That boy immediately saw through your pretense and it was you who was seduced by him in the end."

Nemesis who was wearing her loose black kimono looked cute and somewhat lewd. She was licking the lollipop in her hand while looking at her disciple with half-closed eyes.

Mea felt embarrassed hearing what that woman said. What her master said was neither wrong nor right, but she was sure it wasn't because of her poor acting skills!

It was because Eiji knew the original work and knew herself better than her. Master, you're too confident!

Although just like me, you can also hear Eiji's inner voice.

You should have known he might have found out about our plan!

We are basically preparing a drama whose purpose is to win his heart.

As long as we succeed.

Not only Eiji-senpai, we can win Yami-oneechan's heart because we're trying to save her boyfriend!

In short, catching two birds with one stone.

And that stone is Kuro.

In this plan, they didn't care about the safety of Kuro whom they sent to seek death. Kuro must have been surprised to find out he wasn't being used as a tool to kill, but rather to be a wingman.

Although Mea thought the master's plan was excellent, she felt they underestimated how sensitive Eiji was!

After all, they were going to pretend in front of someone who pretended every day. Wouldn't this just embarrass themselves?

Mea wanted to say all that but knowing the mockery in her master's words...

She had a bit of a revenge mentality and wanted to see if the woman's acting skills were better than hers or not.

If not, she had no right to blame her for failing to seduce Eiji and being seduced back by him!

"Sorry for doubting you, Master. This time I will do my best."

Nemesis was quite satisfied hearing what her disciple said. Mea was still an obedient disciple even though she was previously worried that the girl would defect because she was truly in love with Eiji.

She stood up from the chair and walked towards the roof railing. From there, she could see the position of Eiji and Yami who were sitting on one of the school garden chairs and eating lunch together.

Put aside Eiji.

But Yami, you are a weapon! How can you make such a nervous and shy face?

Shameful!

Life on earth made you very weak. Even your younger sister, Mea almost became like you because of Eiji.

Because Eiji is too strong and we can't take you by force.

We will do this.

Nemesis grinned.

She felt herself to be a genius and understood humans including Eiji who was very perverted and lusted after women.

Mea didn't know but the ultimate goal of this plan was to make Yami return to her past self. As long as she and her younger sister managed to seduce Eiji...

And let the girl see her and Mea having sex with her boyfriend. Yami would definitely be heartbroken or at least filled with negative emotions.

At that time, Yami's dark side, Darkness would rise.

What Nemesis wanted was achieved even though having sex with Eiji was also one of them.

Ever since she saw that boy having sex with Mikado through Mea's vision.

Her body made of Dark Matter felt strange and she often had wet dreams about her and Eiji having sex.

Nemesis felt she was sick. The only way to cure her was to make her wet dreams come true.

Don't misunderstand. It was definitely not because she became emotional like Yami and Mea. After all, she was a weapon!

However, Nemesis did not know a weapon like her could also be destroyed and remade into something else in a sexual context.

Not many people could do that to her of course, but what about Eiji?

...

The boy that people were talking about was scratching his nose.

"Eiji, what's wrong? Does it taste bad?"

Yami who was sitting next to him asked. She did so while holding the Taiyaki in her hand.

They ate lunch together but what they ate was only Taiyaki which was quite a lot.

Eiji knew it was Yami's favorite food so even though the taste of the food was ordinary according to his God's Tongue.

He lied naturally to please his girlfriend.

"It's okay, my nose is a little itchy. And this tastes good. It's been a while since I've had Taiyaki, especially one where the filling is red bean paste."

"But Yami, I wonder what you usually eat besides Taiyaki?"

There's no way this blonde girl eats Taiyaki every day, right?

Eiji was suspicious but because even in the original work he remembered except for when Yami was invited to have dinner at protagonist Rito's house and ate Mikan's homemade food.

He never saw Yami eating anything other than Taiyaki.

By the way, he also lied about his itchy nose. He had actually just felt some familiar gazes and unfamiliar gazes that were watching their lunch date from a distance.

Two of them were Mea and although Eiji had never met her, he was sure it was Nemesis.

But there was another one who seemed to have bad intentions towards him. Who was it? He could find out by using Future Insight to check the plot this time.

However, he chose not to.

Eiji didn't want to ruin the surprise for himself. Moreover, the other party only seemed to be targeting him.

So there was no need to worry.

[Aren't you too relaxed, host? Someone wants to kill you.]

Miss System still asked even though she knew why her host was too relaxed in this situation.

She just wanted to ask like the naive woman who worried about her protagonist in those movies.

'Yes I feel the other party's killing intent and I hope he can confront me. It would be nice if it was a beautiful woman but huh... I know it's a man.'

'Tsk! What a pity.'

[...]

Is that what a protagonist or villain should say when someone wants to kill them?

Well in the case of her host.

Eiji did so because with his current power, it was natural for him to be casual and arrogant.

However, could he be a little uptight to entertain the audience?

Apparently not.

After all, Eiji didn't like acting too serious over trivial matters. The current situation was no exception.

Indifferent to the enemy and affectionate to his women.

This was his style.

[As expected of my King! Worthy of being the Harem King who is not boring.]

[He's so handsome and cool!]

Well done, Leme. Compliment me more.

Miss System, you should learn to—

[No way.]

"....."

As a good system, Miss System interrupts and does not indulge in what her host wants.

She really is a good system.

Eiji said with sarcasm in his heart.

"Just Taiyaki." Yami said flatly. Whether it was breakfast, lunch and dinner...

She would always buy Taiyaki to fill her stomach.

She thought there was nothing wrong with that.

She liked Taiyaki.

And liked to eat it every day.

However, why did Eiji suddenly look at her with a pitiful look and take out his wallet to give her a gold card?!

"Yami, take this and next time buy something other than Taiyaki to eat. Of course, you can also use the card to buy whatever you want."

"There's ten million yen on it. If you've already spent it, you can ask me to replenish it."

Eiji said that and then added in his heart.

[Yami is so pitiful! As her boyfriend, I feel like I've failed to pay attention to her unhealthy diet. I know Yami likes to eat Taiyaki and often eats it in the original work. However, I just found out that she eats it every day!]

[Moreover, where does Yami get the money to survive on earth? The original work doesn't say this! I just gave her an debit card with 10 million yen to buy various kinds of food and buy whatever she likes. Is that enough?]

[Does Tearju know her daughter doesn't eat well? If not, she failed as a mother. I'll have to punish her ass later tonight.]

Tearju: "???"

At this moment she was having lunch with Mikado, Chisato, Shizuka and Lavinia in the teacher's office but...

What Eiji said made her face heat up and if she looked in the mirror, she would see her flushed face.

Not only was she embarrassed, she was also upset!

Suddenly scolding her and wanting to punish her ass later tonight.

Eiji, just say you just want to do it, right?

You pervert! Shameless! Bah!

And no, what you said about Yami... You misunderstood.

Many other heroines who heard this were dumbfounded.

More precisely their focus was on Eiji who casually gave Yami an debit card containing ten million yen and he wondered if that was enough?

Although many of those who had joined his harem were also given monthly money that was roughly the same amount as Yami.

Those who didn't have it yet were tempted to ask Eiji. Ehem! After all, they were his women, right?

Still, to say such words casually and confusedly. The heroines who didn't really know Eiji personally wondered how rich he was?

If Eiji had to answer his total wealth right now, he himself wasn't sure and you should probably ask Rossweisse. She managed all his money which was kept in several banks for him.

As a hands-off boss, he only had to spend the money or distribute it to his women.

"This... Eiji, you misunderstood."

Yami held the debit card in her hand with a surprised expression.

She had no idea how many women out there wanted that little thing.

But, she was happy because from Eiji's inner voice, he gave her this because he was worried about her health!

He loved her, right?

Although she wanted to argue that Tearju was not her mother, but her creator. Though yes she was like a mother to her.

That's complicated.

So put that aside.

"Misunderstood? Wasn't I right? Yami, you must be short of money that you only eat Taiyaki every day. Don't refuse the card and use it to buy whatever you want, you deserve it as my girlfriend."

Eiji coaxed the blonde girl as if worried that she would refuse his money. He also took this opportunity to stop eating Taiyaki again because honestly even though it didn't taste bad, eating too much of it made him feel sick.

He wasn't like Yami who seemed to have a tongue with a high resistance to Taiyaki.

His God's tongue disliked Taiyaki that contained a lot of wheat flour and sugar. Erina would definitely have the same opinion as him although unlike him, she would say her opinion bluntly.

Yami was moved to hear what Eiji said.

There was a blush on her cheeks and she put the debit card the boy gave her into her pocket.

She did that to tell Eiji that she didn't reject what he gave her because she was his girlfriend.

Even so, she felt she still needed to explain something in defense of Tearju for fear that she would be punished by Eiji.

She thought Tearju's ass would be spanked literally by Eiji.

She didn't know it was something perverted.

Yami naively said, "Yes, although I usually eat Taiyaki and buy it with the leftover money from my hair sales. Since Tearju and I reconciled, she always brings me breakfast, lunch box and dinner. But for lunch, I prefer to eat Taiyaki."

"Besides, I'm a Transforming Weapon who will be fine even if I eat Taiyaki every day."

"Don't worry about it, Eiji. It won't affect my health."

With this Tearju wouldn't be punished, right?

However, Eiji didn't seem to care about Tearju and focused on something else with a surprised expression.

"Hair? You said your hair? Yami, aren't you worried that you're bald?!"

That's what you're worried about?

Although it kind of makes sense.

"No." Yami said flatly but there was an amused smile on her pretty face. "It's just a few strands of hair that I turned into gold to exchange for money in this country."

As she said that, she turned a strand of her hair into a gold bar before turning it back into blonde hair.

"....." Eiji blinked his eyes a few times and couldn't help but glance at Yami's blonde hair.

It turned out that not only could it turn into any weapon.

That hair could turn into gold!

He was really surprised because the author of the original work did not mention this.

[Yami's hair can turn into gold and he can make money with it. It makes sense and fills a plot hole in the original work.]

[Yami doesn't lack money for having such a cheating ability. I wonder if Mea and Nemesis do the same thing to earn money?]

Mea: "...."

Nemesis: "...."

There are no comments for that.

The author of the original work also didn't tell us where the two women got the money to buy a small house quite close to protagonist Rito's house.

When Eiji and Yami were busy talking.

About fifty meters away. More precisely behind the trees on the boundary of the park and the school fence.

In the darkness, Kuro observed his target while holding his weapon, Hades which was basically a pistol with special abilities.

At this moment, he was actually surprised to see his acquaintance talking and even smiling with his target. Compared to the past when he fought with her, Yami could make such a face?

Had that girl retired from the assassination business and lived as an ordinary high school student?

"Huh... Nemesis didn't tell me about this." Kuro sighed but there was a faint smile on his face and even a hint of envy in his eyes when he saw Yami from that far away.

Still, this mission was definitely not as simple as he thought.

Yami seemed to have a good relationship with his target.

If he killed that boy. Yami would most likely go after him for revenge.

However, a mission is a mission.

He would not back down just because of Yami's revenge.

"Sorry Konjiki no Yami, but I—"

Before Kuro was about to finish his words and shot Eiji in the head like a marksman.

"Wait, what?"
