World Record Chapter 13

Tsumugu vs Humanoid Unknown!

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The two of them chased after the person who's probably the humanoid Unknown.

It's a open space that's surrounded by abandoned buildings. First, there won't be a problem if something happened here for sure.

In other words, here is probably--

[Welcome, visitors. This place will be your graveyard]

At an instant, Tsumugu and Karen can hear the sound of a huge amount of water flowing from the other side of the path they came through. Tsumugu immediately carries Karen and rushed to the open space.

--It's a water-type superpower.

The status of the opponent who killed the Special Forces was recorded.

 Race: Demon King Crabster

 Superpower: Water Emperor[SS]

 -----------

☆☆☆

Completely the same name as the subjugation target heard from Tsumugu's client.

Then, the Demon King Crabster and Karen were surprised and immediately after that, the Demon King laughed with a loud voice.

[Fuhahahaha! After all this time, humans continued to laugh at this name! It's unbelievable that my comrade is in this kind of place!]

But that fellow feeling didn't last long.

[That's right, I have something to ask you. Tell me the information about my target, the person who has a coffin-shaped soul. If you tell me, I won't kill you. And I will make you my concubine]

If Iwato was there, he would probably say [What's with this guy? Isn't he just an evil pedophile bastard?], but what the two girls reacted on was the former.

In fact, Karen who can see souls, knows about this. The shape of the soul changes according to what a person is doing or learning or overdoing.

For example, Tsumugu.

For example, this Demon King.

Or--a murderer who have killed a large amount of people.

When Karen thought about it to that extent, she regained her sanity by the heat that appeared nearby.

[Coffin-shaped...soul? You...what do you plan to do on...that person?]

There was the figure of Tsumugu who had an angry face instead of her usual expressionless face.

[Sorry but...I absolutely need...to kill you]

At the same time, flame and water begin to overflow from their bodies.

And the tension starts to float in the area, and Tsumugu talks to Karen in this intimidating air.

[Karen...don't move from this place. That guy will probably...aim at Karen without hesitation]

By those words, Karen reacts with a twitch and the Demon King smiles.

Therefore, the Demon King was astonished by Tsumugu in his heart, and Karen bit her lips, knowing that she's nothing but a hindrance in this situation.

[Hmph, you just don't want to fight against me. Because you might lose]

The Demon King has probably expected that answer.

That's supposed to be surprise attack that no one can react to it.

[Eh!? Did something happened just now!?]

And, his pride was greatly hurt by the words of Tsumugu who clearly knew what happened and the words of Karen who absolutely had no idea what happened.

[I thought...you would do something...so I deployed...a heat barrier in front of me]

--"As expected, you knew it!"

From the fact that she can evaporate the water created by a SS rank superpower in an instant, her superpower is surely a heat or flame-type superpower. She may be a monster of either a SS rank or a SSS rank.

Her age is probably around 8~9. Then, she should only obtained her superpower two or three years ago.

His taijutsu level is A rank. In top of that, the water armor is strong against heat, and his physical strength is also powered up by the water armor. Because of that, a long range type will surely not be able to react to his speed. Though he is not as fast as Karen.

[Kahaa!?]

Tsumugu who slipped into his bosom, landed an elbow strike on his solar plexus.

Of course, not only that it's the same from top to toe, but the weakness is also the same.

But Tsumugu's attack didn't end there.

[Ha, Too!]

During that time, lethal blows that can instantly kill a normal human, were unleashed together with her voice.

And, when his body floats in the air after Tsumugu's uppercut, she pushed her hands out and chants.

[『Hell Fire Destruction』]

At an instant, what created was a pure white flame that's different from a normal flame--divine flame.

Then, as he expected, a huge steam explosion occurred in front. Although he received a considerable amount of damage, still, it's way better than touching the divine flame.

His body was blown away, and rolled on the ground until he hit the wall.

He thought of it.

Even if he can see her soul, that is only derived from the mental strength and the Battle Rank. If a person who has a low mental strength and a high Battle Rank, the soul that can be seen is small because it's affected by the mental strength.

But the Demon King smiled.

[That divine flame... In addition to that, that taijutsu skills. You are absolutely not a human... However, the steam explosion that occurred in front of you. There's no way a human with flame superpower can resist--]

That's right, there's no way she can resist it.

Expressing in one word, it's probably an Ogre's arm.

No damage can be seen on the Ogre's arm, and in the next moment, it became smaller and it returned to the figure of that girl's arm.

[Ka...Ha, Eh...? What was that just now...]

Exactly what she said.

But before he wanted to ask, he instinctively trembled before that overwhelming power.

(Can I win if I transform!? There's no way I can! Not only that I can't touch that divine flame, and also that Ogre's hand.... If I'm hit by such thing, I will definitely die!)

And above all, that soul, those words, and that figure brings fear to him.

A second superpower? That divine flame and the Ogre's hand are definitely SSS rank. And she might still be hiding some superpowers. Then, what is she hiding? Two SSS rank...then, won't the others be the same?

The answer is no. Then, what's the reason?

--The answer is that I'm not a worthy opponent.

[Demon King...you're weaker than I thought...isn't it?]

And, Tsumugu who saw that, sweat cold sweats.

[T-This is bad... It looks like he can escape]

[.......Un...impossible...hikikomori don't have stamina]

However, as expected, after coming this far, Tsumugu don't feel to conceal it anymore. She mutters a name.

[World Recorder]

But a new member joined the Absolute without the identity being known. The fourth became famous with the other name.

 --------------

 Age: 9

 Job: Student(Elementary School Student) · Special Forces Top Leader

 Superpower: ???[EX]

 --------------

☆☆☆

[Haa, haa, haa...]

After 10 minutes or so, the Demon King Crabster who had successfully ran away from the Absolute, sat down on a different open space at the alley, and breathed wildly.

(I got away. I managed to get away! Fuha! Fuhahahaha!)

He had an evil smile, and pumped his fist in his heart.

Otherwise, that means, this town has such monster all over the place. That's definitely impossible. That will no longer be called as a town, but a hell.

He totally didn't his presence. Even though he can perceive that girl's presence if he concentrate. The Demon King was surprised that someone stronger than that monster came, but that thought vanished immediately.

Surely, if he see the boy's soul, he would think that the boy in front of him is his target, and he would realize that this boy is more stronger than that girl.

[Well, I visit various stores all the time since afternoon, but all of them were sold out surprisingly. I even thought of going out of the Wall and catch one myself. Well, I'm just lying, though]

The Demon King released all of his concealed powers as if he should vent his accumulated irritation on this boy who continues to talk.

[『Transform』!]

At an instant, the Demon King's body starts to swell up, and after a few moments, there's a monster figure of a huge crab and prawn mixed together, in front of the boy.

The Demon King showed his figure to the boy, and expect the plain boy to feel fear, but--

[Ah, a crab]

Dogaaaan!!

On the other hand, the boy--Iwato took out a handkerchief and wiped the strange body fluid on his fist. Then, he muttered as if remembering something.

[Hmm... A humanoid, huh?... There sure is a lot of unusual things in the world]

Look what you have done!?
