137 The man who is burning with revenge

When Yukime opened her eyes, she was on top of a horse .

Riding behind her is Gettan, restraining her .

The place that she was pierced still hurts but the blood has already stopped .

Beast-kin have strong life force, her wound is not so fatal that it will take her life right away .

However, the fact that she's seriously injured doesn't change . It will be difficult for her to escape .

[Where do you plan to take me… . . ?]

With a weak weak voice, Yukime asked . What lied ahead is a snowy field as far as she can see .

[The source of those counterfeit came from the Lawless city . The gold is there as well right?]

[...I see, so you planned to have me take you to the gold . ]

[That's right . If you honestly tell me I will at least spare your life . ]

Yukime made a small smile .

[The gold huh...… Even If I take you there, you wouldn't be able to get your hands on it . ]

[——What did you say?]

[That place has John Smith guarding it . There's no way you can win against him . ]

[That guy is your accomplish huh... . . But to me who have acquired this new power, I will never lose . No one can take anything away from me again . ]

[New power… . ? Gettan, what are you talking about . ]

[Whoever doesn't possess power will be taken from . You must already know this, there's a cult that is lurking in the backside of the world . It was an outrageous organization that manipulates, capture and experiment on beast-kin . They target your Yoko tribe and my Great Wolf tribe who hold great power . ]

[Our tribes were targeted...?]

[Aah . I took the deal, in exchange of my obedience I would acquire great power . If we have power we wouldn't get taken from . That's why I got this power , but... . !]

Gettan put a strength into his arms .

[Gettan… If that is true, why is it that the village was destroyed . Why did you enter such a cult . ]

[Shut up ! That wasn't supposed to happen! If we did as Lord Mordred told that wouldn't...but...I will not stop now . I will never hand over things that are precious to me anymore, I will get the power that will prevent that from happening . If the a.s.sociation succeeds, I can enter the Rounds(the group high ranking antagonist from the first arc . ) . If I do that no one will be able to interfere anymore, for that sake, I have to become the [3rd] awakened one . ]

[3rd awakened one… . . ?]

[That's what they called those who can utilize the power of the tablet to the maximum, the power needed to get yourself into the Rounds . ]

Gettan got up .

[Hey Yukime, tell me . Where is the gold . ]

[...…Do you really think I will tell you?]

[If I entered the Rounds, we will never be taken from again . Yoko tribe and Great Wolf tribe too, you and I are the only one left . Let's take a do-over with me, Yukime . ]

[Gettan... . ]

The fact that you didn't kill me back then mean that you still have feeling for me . You were a pa.s.sionate woman since long ago . Back then we were fiancee , this time let's get married for real . ]

Gettan hugged Yukime from behind .

He brings his face closer and put his lips on her cheek . Yukime closed her eyes and look down .

Then—— .

[...No . ]

She rejected him .

[What did you say?]

[The Gettan I know wasn't such a weakling . He wasn't a man who would rely on a tablets, rely on gold and betrayed the one precious to him and entered a cult . ]

[... . Shut up . ]

[Gettan... . why never you tell us to defeat the cult together . ]

[——– I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP !!]

Gettan roared .

He threw Yukime off the horse, get on top of her and squeezed her neck .

[What do you know !? You haven't even met Lord Mordred, how would you be able to understand my despair!! To that man… . . everyone yields in front of that man! ! It wasn't just me, It wasn't just mE!!]

He was like a child desperately begging for forgiveness .

[Get…tan... . ]

The arm that is strangling her has tightened .

In her fading consciousness, Tears fell from her eyes .

[Help…John...han… . . ]

Then a wind blow and causing the snow to dance about .

from the night that was dyed pure white, a single man appeared .

Snows are dancing around him and steel wires cutting through the sky .

[—- So it was you who took my important thing away . ]

The man wearing a black suit who hides his face behind a mask . The man who took a step toward them was...… . . John Smith .

A man who is burning with revenge .
