Mushoku no Eiyuu ~Betsu ni Skill Nanka Iranakattan daga~

The members of the group known as the Abyss Devils are rolling and moaning all over the place.

"This guy's for real...

This is a lot of stuff for one person, but there's no way you're gonna...

I tried to ask them about Mira, but instead of answering me, they suddenly attacked me, so I did it back.

I crouched down beside one of them and asked him again.

'I'm a girl who just turned ten,' But she's a little more mature, so she might look like she's about twelve. Don't you know?

I don't know...

Are you sure?

I don't really know!

It seems that he is not lying.

I don't know how big this Abyss Devils thing is, but it's probably a lot more than that.

If you ask them all, someone might know.

And it looks like they're coming to join the party just in time.

'What the hell is this?'

Hey, which gang did this to you?

One of the fellows pointed towards me.

'Oh, he's...'

What?　You're not going to tell me that that kid alone got you, are you?

The new guys - about fifteen of them this time - are all staring at me at once.

Next time I'll ask them.

I just want to know what happened to Mira, but they don't answer me very quietly, and I end up having to fight again.

Eventually I found myself lying on the ground with about a hundred people, surrounded by almost twice that number.

But despite their overwhelming advantage in numbers, they were just wary and wouldn't move.

It's a good idea to be on your guard. This bastard has no idea what he's capable of.

I mean, what the hell is this thing?　Why the hell are you dealing with a knife flying at you from behind?

Then the noise behind them seemed to increase, and part of the siege broke off.

A man walks in from the other side of it.

''Boss........''

The boss is here...

Hmm, this guy seems to be the boss of the organization known as "Abyss Devil".

He has a skinned head and looks as if he's going to stare his opponent down.

He's wearing a leather jacket, but the upper half of his body is covered in hideous tattoos.

The skinhead looked around at the constituents lying around and a blue streak appeared on his forehead.

'Looks like you've had a good run in our territory, huh?

'Because I just wanted to ask you something and you didn't listen to me and attacked me.

What's the story?

Surprisingly, they've shown interest.

Maybe they could talk a little more for what they look like.

'I'm looking for my sister. Her name is Mira, and she's a ten-year-old girl, and she should be somewhere in this city.

Mira?

The skinhead's cheeks twitched as he twitched.

'Are you the brother of that woman Mira?'

Yeah. What do you know about it?

Yeah, I'm no stranger to that.

Are you sure?　Where are you?

Shut the f*ck up and stay the f*ck away from me.

The skinhead raised his hand in a killing motion to stop me, and he told me easily.

'A woman named Mira would have taken me to the lowest level of the city, man.

The bottom line?

What, you don't know anything about that?

Skinhead says the city has a hierarchical structure: upper level, middle level, lower level, and lowest level.

When the city was a prison, the more serious criminals were housed in the lower levels of the city.

And even today, the lower you go, the more dangerous people are under control of the prison.

Compared to the middle and lower levels, we 'Abyss Devils' are just a bunch of cute guys. When it comes to the lowest level, it's unimaginable.

The skinhead contorts his face.

He said that the only people at the lowest level of the city were the city's Patriarch and his entourage.

''What do you mean by the Patriarch?''

"The strongest and worst criminal and former death row inmate - and the man who once incited the prisoners to take this prison from the guards. I've never seen his face, but I've heard horrible stories about him. There are no rules in this city, but the Patriarch is the only one who can be crossed. I've been told that the entire organization will be wiped out, no matter what kind of vicious criminal organization it is.

Hmm.

So you're the founder of this city, and you're still at the top.

I don't know the details, but it's rumored that he was discovered by someone in the high places. I don't know the details, but it was rumored that he happened to meet her by chance. I don't know how they treat her. The lowest level is a place that I can't even set foot in,

I felt strong indignation.

'What a pedophile!　Sure, Mila is ridiculously cute, and she's grown so tall and mature all at once lately that you could call her a beauty, but she's still only ten years old!

....

For some reason, the skinhead looks at me with half-lidded eyes.

I can't stay here.

I have to save Mira from that pervert right away.

But just as I'm about to thank him for the information and leave, the skinhead stands in front of me.

"Wait. You, what are you doing?

I know. I'm going to go to this Führer and get Mira back.

I told you.　You cross the line and you die. Why don't you come work for me?　It looks like I have more than enough firepower for a hundred of my minnows, and with you here, we'll be a lot bigger.

A skinhead solicits me.

Of course the answer is no.

'Sorry, no.'

That's a shame. If you're going to be my guy, I'm going to consider it a servant's quarrel, but...

A moment later, the skinhead disappeared.

Hmm, that's a decent amount of speed.

Moreover, he seems to be using his skill at the same time he moves, and if he were a normal person, I would have surely lost sight of him.

But I could perfectly see the skinhead coming around behind me and sticking the knife out towards my back.

I turn around and finger the knife.

'....nah?

You mean an [assassin] in a [senior position]? But if you're going to assassinate me, you shouldn't have shown up in the first place.
