To Be a Power in the Shadows! Chapter 139

139

Even if we talk, it will be a waste of time

Gettan let go of Yukime's neck and stand up .
[John-han…… . ]
Yukime coughed painfully and calls out his name .
[So you are John Smith . You said that I took something away from you . But isn't it you that take things away from me !]
Gettan squeezed his crushed eyes and hatefully stared at John Smith .
[I don't care . I'm just here to take back the thing you took from me——that's all . ]
[You mean this woman? Hah, do you really think you do it?]
[I will try until I can . ]
[Damn small fry… . . But I too have something I must take back . The thing you stole from me that is!!]
Saying so Gettan takes a stance with his naginata .
[You want to take something back from me? What are you talking about?]
[Trying to play a fool? You shithead…… . ]
Gettan clicked his tongue .
[That's my line, you damn dog . ]
John Smith also clicked his tongue back .
[You are not making any sense, if so then there's no longer need for a talk . ]
[It's a waste of time . ]
John Smith also prepare his steel wires .
The two hatefully stared at each other, then ——— .

[GETTANNNNNN——!!]
[JOHN SMITHHHH——–!!]
They clashed violently .
Gettan's naginata is approaching John Smith . But John Smith didn't try to avoid it .
The naginata continued its approach on John's neck, then it suddenly stopped .
[—–What!?]
Surprised that his naginata has been stopped mid-air, Gettan pulled his naginata .
John Smith send Gettan's naginata back and composedly said .
[Just now, did you tried something…… . . ?]
Gettan furiously click his tongue .
[You bastard… . . what did you do . No, a wire huh? Did you used a wire infused with magic power and stop my naginata . ]
[Hou… . . to think you would be able to noticed it even with those blinded eyes . ]
[Even without an eye you would be able to notice it from other things . After I lost my eyesight, my detection ability using magic power improved dramatically . ]
Gettan's magic power filled the surrounding .
[I can see it, I can see it! I already seen through all of your wires . !! Certainly, to be able to control this much wires freely, you are certainly skilled . ? Unfortunately you picked a fight with the wrong opponent this time . ]
Gettan distorted his lips and smiled .
[I can clearly see everything! Your skills are too incompatible with mine!]
Gettan once again start attacking John Smith . John Smith takes a distance and tried to seize Gettan's naginata , but his wire never touch gettan .
[It's useless!! everything you try to do is visible to me . ]
John Smith retreats, Gettan chases after him .

Yukime watched the two fought with tears in her eyes . What is reflecting in her eye is the figure of John Smith fighting in earnest .
Yukime has never seen a moment when John Smith has been so angry .
It hasn't been long since the two met .
But she understood that he wasn't a type who show his emotions .
That same person, got angry .
It was an anger from the bottom of his heart .
He came to take Yukime back and he got angry at Gettan for hurting her .
[John-han…… . why…… . ]
She got closer to him . But that was a business relationship, or so she thought . John Smith should also felt the same .
However, that strong feeling hidden inside John Smith……
He came to take back his important thing .
Tokkun ( heartbeat's sfx)
Yukime's heart is beating faster .
Her heart was frozen since the day everything was taken away from her .
No matter what happened , No matter who she has to embrace, She just smile and accepted it .
Her heart was frozen to protect herself, and it will never melt away .
However, John Smith's burning feeling gradually melt it little by little .
Yukime's eyes already can't follow anyone except John Smith .
[John-han…… . !]
Although it seem like John Smith is being overwhelmed, Yukime know that his true ability was not just at this level .
He will definitely win for her sake .
She believed so .
Then—- .
[So that's what you're amounted to…… . ?]
That was John Smith's word .
[Ku…… . ]
Gettan's breath has become rough , he stared at John Smith .
It was Gettan who pushed John Smith back but his naginata never reach him .
On the contrary his body is being covered with innumerable small wound .
Certainly, Gettan was able to see all of the wires .
However, being able to see doesn't mean he can dodge it all .
The wires formation John Smith used was like a spider web, once you are caught you won't be able to escape .
It was a perfect formation to lead his prey around and seal its movement, is what Gettan guessed .
If one try to forcibly break through they will sustain damages from those countless wire .
If you can't get close the naginata won't reach, and If you got close————– .
Before he noticed it , Gettan was forced to eternally swing his naginata that will never reach his target .
[Why, are you possessing such power… . ]
Gettan said with a voice as if he was howling .
John Smith composedly walk toward Gettan . His wires already sealed Gettan escape route before he know it .
[Say it… . . You have something you want to say right?]
[———–]
Gettan looks over John Smith's shoulder toward Yukime for a moment . But he shakes his head .
[What are you talking about . Thing I want to say? I have no such thing!!]
[I see . ]
At the next moment, Blood burst from Gettan's chest . The steel wire wrapped around him and bite into his flesh .
Gettan's face distorted in pain but he still stared at John Smith .
I wished for power! I sacrificed many thing to get it !! I will not stop now!!
He took a lot of red tablets from his pocket and swallowed all of it .
That's clearly over the capacity he could handle .
[I will never be deprive again… . . If I'm going to be deprive again then………]
Gettan turns to look at Yukime again . It was as he was looking with his crushed eyes .
Then, Gettan's body turns black and transforming .
His muscles are getting bigger and more strained .
A large amount of magic power exploded and blew away the piled snow .
[I am no longer care about my life . ]
Gettan's crushed eyes has opened .
What's there are blood-red eyeballs .
And tears of blood flowing down his cheeks .
