Chapter 3 Killer Queen

How does it feel to be a Stand user?

Roland didn't know how to describe it. He was still a normal human being, except that his vitality and mental strength were stronger than those of ordinary people. This might be because he had absorbed a quality that he had never possessed.

However, something has changed fundamentally. There is no need to explain it in words. It is more like a mysterious feeling, just like an instinct like moving a finger or blinking an eye. He can summon the Killer Queen in front of him at any time.

As a typical close-range power Stand, Killer Queen's excellent attributes of Strength A and Speed B are enough for him to deal with most of the dangers that are still within the normal range in daily life.

Although his boxing performance in the original work was not outstanding, which led many people to underestimate him in this regard, this is actually a misjudgment.

Killer Queen's opponents at the time were top-level melee Stands like Crazy Diamond and Star Platinum. Judging from the fact that Killer Queen was able to take on all of the opponent's attacks with one hand while also facing Echo, who had both strength and speed in the third stage, her strength was still very high. At least her performance seemed much higher than that of a certain A with both strength and speed who wished not to be named.

As long as Roland wanted, Killer Queen could easily cut the human body into pieces, and even punch through the chest. In an ordinary city, without using the Stand ability, humans were like fragile puppets to Roland and could be easily destroyed.

The most perfect thing is Killer Queen's ability, simple and pure.

Roland gently flicked a coin onto Killer Queen's fingertips. After a brief touch, if Roland wanted to, he could create an explosion that would engulf the entire room. But in the end, he still just let the coin turn into powder that was very difficult to collect and flowed away from his fingertips.

Turning everything it touches into a bomb is the highest embodiment of violent aesthetics. However, the Killer Queen herself, who serves as a stand-in, cannot be captured or observed by the camera. What a convenient ability!

In this era when cameras are far from popular, with the help of Killer Queen, Roland is confident that he can live leisurely in this kind of city and live freely in the lifestyle he wants.

Moreover, only after personally experiencing the power of Killer Queen did Roland realize a problem that many people overlooked.

"Killer Queen's power is far from reaching its limit."

Roland closed his eyes, feeling the Stand that was inseparable from him, and tapping into the potential that was buried deep within it.

Even after many developments and repeated improvements in her abilities, Killer Queen's potential has still not been fully tapped, including the First Bomb and Second Bomb which have been used many times.

Perhaps because the situation is very different from the villains in other films, coupled with his own personality, Kira Yoshikage is very passive in the development of his Stand abilities.

But in a sense, it may be because of this kind of personality that makes Killer Queen such a perfect stand-in.

However, compared to these promising future thoughts, the biggest advantage of obtaining Killer Queen at the moment is the sense of security brought by this supernatural power.

With Roland's original level, let alone Heroic Spirits, even the worst killer among the Masters could easily kill him. But now, with the advantage of the Stand's first kill, Roland at least has the capital to negotiate with these Masters. Even if he uses it properly, combined with his prophetic intelligence advantage, it won't be difficult for him to become the eighth person who is more dangerous than the magician killer.

"Don't get carried away. People who don't know the limits of their abilities often end up in a bad situation."

Roland's current goal is simply to live a peaceful life in Fuyuki City. After a month, this ability will belong to him forever.

Although he was still considering whether to leave Fuyuki City when he just traveled through time, now, whether it was from the influence of the contract spirit or the comfortable life in the past few days, he has fallen in love with this city.

On one side is the new city that is still under construction and has a lot of work to do. On the other side is the old but cozy mountain town that has given up on development and is full of life. There are not many tourists and no big changes that would surprise people. Even after another ten years, the appearance of Fuyuki City will still be the same as it is today.

It's really, really beautiful.

The only thing worth worrying about is the unknown start of the Fourth Holy Grail War. However, as a resident living in Fuyuki City, Roland can still roughly feel the difference between rumors and reality.

As we all know, the Holy Grail War is conducted in secret.

Although judging from the results, this statement is debatable, but considering the underlying principle that mystery cannot spread, apart from the disaster caused by the destruction of the Holy Grail in the end, as long as ordinary residents do not like to wander around places like wide port areas, abandoned old buildings, and the wilderness in the suburbs in the dead of night, it is difficult to be affected.

Putting all this aside, Roland had no reason to participate in the Holy Grail War. He was not even a magician.

Suddenly, Roland realized something and his eyes became unusually sharp.

Unless, those escaped contract spirits are among the participants of this Holy Grail War.

The core ability of the Key of All Spirits is to help the user create, digest, and control contract spirits.

Retrieving the escaped soul contract is only a process to help the user to sublimate and become stronger, but it is not a necessary goal.

Traveling across worlds was just an additional ability to provide better assistance and served the core ability. As long as Roland had been to a world once, he could travel back at any time, as long as he increased his authority and unlocked the Key of All Souls to travel to new worlds.

Therefore, Roland's golden finger is not mandatory at all. As long as he completes the requirement of taking back the contracted spirit once, his authority will be enough to activate the key to the new world. At that time, everything in Fuyuki City can be forgotten.

Directly traveling to the new world is a much safer way of escaping than leaving Fuyuki City. Whether from a rational or emotional point of view, it is worth a try.

After all, as long as the escaped spirits are within a certain range, Roland will get a prompt. If the distance is far, he can only know the number, and as the distance gets closer, Roland can get more information.

If we really know who the escaped spirit is attached to, it is not impossible to kill him based on the situation at the scene.

"Alas, I am clearly taking back something that belongs to me, why do you have to be so sneaky..."

Roland sighed, glanced at the wall clock, and stood up. At the same time, the manager's voice came from outside the lounge door.

"Roland-kun, it's time to rest. It's time to change shifts."

"Coming, Manager."

Before that, he should just enjoy the comfortable life of getting off work on time every day and having an easy job, and then think about whether he should rent a house in the old capital and find a new job to avoid the Holy Grail suddenly exploding and burning the new capital into a sea of fire.

However, not these two days, because of an important reason.

——It's almost payday.
