When Beta killed that person, the person only then realized that Beta's ears were not decorations, but real ears.
Although he knew Sino and Beta's identities, he still had to die. He didn't have the protagonist's fate.
The magical beasts in this world only come out at night. The magical beasts that just appeared were drawn out because their nest was here.
The two walked on the empty street, Beta still full of curiosity about this world.
"Beta, if you're curious about the knowledge of this world, we can go to the library. There are tons of books there!"
The two arrived at the library, which was completely empty.
Normally, there were only a few people in the library, let alone now, in the apocalypse.
The library was completely unvisited, not even by magical beasts.
Beta found some books she liked there and quickly became immersed in a sea of knowledge.
Sino wasn't idle either; he went to pick out clothes for Beta.
Anyway, Beta was wearing them for him to see, so he chose clothes according to Sino's preferences.
"Cheongsams are good, nurse uniforms are good, and so are JK uniforms! Lolita dresses are also great!"
Sino was having a blast picking them out. In life, one needs to have some pursuits. Sino had no bad habits, so what was wrong with being a little bit of a pervert?
At this moment, a scouting team walked over.
"Hey! You over there, which camp are you from?!"
"I don't have a camp, I'm a lone traveler!"
"A lone traveler? This is the first I've heard of someone being able to travel alone in this environment."
"Captain, I think he must have done something wrong and been kicked out!"
"Look at him picking out women's clothes. He probably had some improper thoughts about a girl and got kicked out!"
"How noisy! My good mood is ruined by you guys!" Sino rebuked.
"What did you say, kid? A guy who got kicked out still dares to be so arrogant? Don't you know how to write the word 'death'?"
As the man's words fell, the heads of his companions around him also fell.
Blood splattered all over him.
"I really don't know how to write it. Do you want to teach me? Or do you want to experience it yourself? You can ask your companions, ask them if the taste of death is good!"
Sino said coldly, without even raising his head.
The man stood there like a wooden dummy, his legs instantly numb, too scared to move.
It was too fast, everything was too fast.
He had no idea what happened, only that he was still talking, and all his teammates were dead, splattering blood all over him.
He didn't want to die. The fear of death enveloped his heart, making him unable to utter any sound.
Sino also ignored that guy, planning to pick out some clothes for himself.
The man prayed incessantly in his heart, begging Sino to let him go.
Soon, Sino disappeared from his sight.
His legs were weak, and just as he tried to move, he found that one of his legs was broken.
He didn't know when one of his legs broke. The cut was so clean that he didn't feel any pain, not even the sensation of his leg breaking.
Even more terrifying was that only one of his legs was broken.
The opponent could sever one leg and still stop at such a fast speed.
With a broken leg, he had no time to treat the wound, and it was getting dark.
The man kept talking about Sino, but Sino was too lazy to waste words with him, so he severed his leg and left him to his own devices.
Sometimes, instant death is a release, while living is a punishment.
If he was lucky, he might survive.
But most likely, he would die. A guy with a broken leg couldn't outrun the magical beasts of the night.
Sino planned to let that person gradually descend into despair. Killing him instantly was too simple, and that would make his death too comfortable.
Dying slowly in struggle would cause enough damage to a person's spirit.
The sun gradually set, and the man with the broken leg didn't have good luck. He was targeted by magical beasts just as the sun went down.
He ultimately died tragically in the mouth of a magical beast.
Sino found Beta.
He changed Beta and himself into modern clothes.
Beta was wearing a JK uniform, but it was a bit small. The clothes were stretched, making her look strange.
Sino had clearly taken the largest size.
He changed her into a Lolita dress.
"Such beautiful clothes! Lord Sino is too good to me!"
Beta charged and hugged Sino, her chest pressing against him.
Sino responded to Beta, who was wearing a Lolita princess dress.
Sino took Beta to a five-star hotel.
...Late at night, Sino noticed the presence of Sid. Our Lord Shadow was pretending to be an ordinary passerby, lying in a hospital, playing dead.
Nishino Akane led her team to the hospital to search for the person who sent the distress signal.
However, the person who sent the distress signal had already been killed.
A magical beast tried to attack Lord Shadow, but he was immediately counter-killed.
Lord Shadow left one magical beast, expecting that once they killed it, they would notice him.
He planned to infiltrate the group and inquire about what exactly happened in this world.
Sino remembered that if he wanted to return, a certain item in the shelter where Nishino Akane was located was the key to their return.
Sino had no strong feelings for this world.
He just wanted to go back.
Sino used his magic to sense the surrounding magical beasts, using himself as bait to attract them, leading them to where Nishino Akane was.
He planned a 'hero saves the beauty' move to gain entry into Nishino Akane's base.
Directly pledging allegiance would likely be seen as a spy, which would be too troublesome.
Playing dead like Lord Shadow and being charitably admitted into the shelter was too petty.
Sino couldn't bring himself to be dependent on others.
Nishino Akane and her team members proceeded cautiously within the hospital.
A puddle of slime dripped onto a male student's face. He looked up to see a pair of crimson magical beast eyes staring at him.
The creature opened its gaping maw, intending to bite the male student to death. Nishino Akane, at this moment, decisively struck, severing the magical beast with a single sword stroke.
The magical beasts Sino had lured to the hospital lost track of him and heard the sounds of battle here.
They charged over without hesitation.
The wall was broken through, and more than a dozen magical beasts appeared before everyone.
"It's over, it's all over, with this many magical beasts, we're dead for sure!" a boy shouted, sitting on the ground.
"I will protect you all!" Nishino Akane still wanted to press on despite the odds.
But the magical beasts here were far stronger than the one just killed. Nishino Akane found it incredibly difficult to kill even one.
At this moment, Sino appeared.
He killed a magical beast with one sword strike.
The sword in his hand was one Sino had snatched from the squad that had insulted him earlier.
Sino also gave Beta a sword; summoning a slime sword out of thin air would have been too high-profile.
Beta also participated in the battle. With the efforts of the three, these magical beasts were killed without any casualties.
"Thank you so much! My name is Nishino Akane! May I ask your names?"
"She is Natsume, and I am Sino!"
Nishino Akane felt that Sino looked somewhat familiar, very much like one of the people who had saved her before.
"That person died in a car accident a long time ago. How could it be him? I must be overthinking things!"
Nishino Akane expressed her gratitude to Beta and Sino.
"Which base are you from?"
"We don't have a base! We were deceived by someone before, and after that, we stopped living in bases!"
"I see! Then would you like to come to our base? The highest authority in our base is my brother, so there will definitely be no betrayal!" Nishino Akane said.
"Long-term wandering has become a bit tiresome, so let's go check out your base!" Sino replied.
Everyone had chatted enough and was preparing to leave. Sino was also getting ready to follow. At this moment, a small stone flew towards Sino.
Sino easily caught it.
It was Lord Shadow who threw the stone; he had been ignored.
At this moment, Sino remembered Lord Shadow, who was playing dead nearby. He had been playing dead for a long time, originally thinking the others would notice him, but because of Sino's appearance, all attention had been drawn away.
Everyone else completely ignored Sino.
"It looks like there's a living person over there!"
Sino pointed at Sid, who was lying on the ground playing dead.
Nishino Akane and the others discussed it and decided to take Sid with them.
Nishino Akane had a pure saintly heart; she wanted to save everyone she could.
Everyone accompanying her objected, but Nishino Akane still stubbornly insisted.
Nishino Akane was the strongest knight in the base, so no one dared to openly defy her. In the end, everyone compromised.
Everyone returned to the Messiah base with the injured Sid.
