Sayori let go of me and backed away slightly, stuttering between words: "N-No.. He didn't deserve to.. die, right?"
Dadsuki crossed his arms, you could tell he didn't regret anything, and then said: "He did deserve to die. In fact, I'm the one who killed him, because he treated my daughter as if she was a mere toy in his collection. I murdered him for the best of all of us, especially Natsuki."
*Yuri's POV*
Yuri was walking by Dadsuki's house, going back home, when she heard his confession to murdering MC.
She then walked inside our house and put her hand inside her bag, saying: "So it was you… You're gonna pay for that.."
*Natsuki's POV*
I saw Yuri take a knife out of her bag and covered Sayori's eyes. I looked around and saw my dad upstairs. He crossed his arms and said: "To be such a fool.. You have intentions of killing me for doing you a favor? Or will you just sit there and do nothing? He was going to use Natsuki."
She looked angry, something that I rarely see, it's honestly unsettling. Eyes wide, teeth grit, and a tight grip on a fancy-looking knife. The silence between those two was deafening.
"Yuri, don't you think you're going a bit fa—" - I was interrupted by her piercing glare. I looked over at my dad, silently.
"That does it then. Come and take revenge for that boy. You will soon realize it was just a waste of time and energy though." - My dad said, smiling.
"How dare you smile at a time like this..?!" - Yuri started walking up the stairs but suddenly realized she was at the bottom of the staircase.
"Wha—"
"What's wrong? I thought you wanted to kill me." - My dad asked her.
She stayed silent, and attempted to reach him, but the same as before happened. She looked at her knife and realized his strategy.
"Have you finally realized that this is a waste of ti—" - Dadsuki was interrupted by a knife to his chest thrown by Yuri.
"I don't know what the hell you're doing.. But if you think that this is enough, you're mistaken."
I looked over at Yuri, speechless.
"What the hell.."
My dad silently looked at the knife that penetrated his chest deeply and removed it, the wound healing instantly. He looked at it, with his own blood on it and said: "Sharp and good looking.." - He then locked eye contact with Yuri, continuing - "Yuri.. Are you a fan of knives?"
She looked up at him, replying: "I own a knife collection."- she dropped her bag, taking out a handful of fancy looking, sharp knives. She took one from the handful and looked at it carefully, adding - "This one though.. It's my favorite."
She landed the knife to him with caution, he looked at it and slit his own wrist. It almost felt like his wrist was nothing to the knife, he said: "Impressive.. It cut my wrist like it was nothing.. I have a collection as well." - He pointed to his room, looking at her - "In my room, last door to the right, in a box next to the doorway. You can take some if you want, I'll be in the living room."
*Yuri's POV*
She put her knives back in her bag and carried it to his room, to look at the knives. She turned on her phone flashlight.
"So dusty.. Box by the doorway, right?" - She thought.
She crouched and looked behind his bedroom door and saw the first box, gently placed her bag on the floor, and opened the box and saw a lot of combat, fancy and sharp different knives.
"Wow.. Where the hell did he get these..? These aren't even on the market anymore.." - She whispered to herself while she put some in her bag until she saw another small box next to the one with knives. It was smaller, which piqued her interest.
What does that one have inside..
She opened it and saw a big odd looking arrow. Intrusive thoughts started flooding her mind.
"You should use that thing to cut yourself."
She tried to resist, saying it wouldn't be polite to mess with his stuff without consent.
"The pleasure you would feel from drawing your own blood on that blade.. Think about it."
The previous thought of not messing with his stuff was thrown out the window fast by her own selfish desires.
She grabbed the arrow and went inside the bathroom, locked herself inside and looked at it and started making deep cuts on her arms as she usually would, until it started shining in her hands.
"What..?" - She whispered to not alarm anyone, especially him.
The arrow dug itself into her skin, she started freaking out silently, trying to take it out. It went from her wrist, to her shoulder and then dropped on the ground.
Yuri looked at her arm and noticed there were no injuries, fresh cuts, nothing, even though there was a sharp pain from that thing going into her skin.
A "spirit" with a single eye, satanic and occult symbols all over its body and seemingly naked, with an elegant and attractive female figure stood before Yuri, staring at her.
-The Third Eye-
Yuri Kuroyanagi's stand, representing her hidden twisted side.
It's strength was D (weak level); durability was C (human level); range was A (excellent level), just like in speed and development potential.
Its ability was that if an opponent locked eye contact with its eye, except for its master (Yuri Kuroyanagi), it would allow The Third Eye to go into their mind, being under its control, driving them insane. If not found its weakness on time, the opponent will die from madness, driving them to suicide.
Yuri looked up at The Third Eye and backed away, surprised. After a deep breath, she looked at it again, trying to touch its hand but realized it was a spirit. She then heard a knock on the bathroom door.
*Natsuki's POV*
"Yuri, is everything okay in there?" - I asked.
"Y-Yes! Don't worry about me, I'm fine! I just.. need some time alone." - She replied.
She then unlocked the door to the bathroom, The Third Eye hid itself from me as she went in my room, locking the door behind her.
"Alright then.. That was weird." - I murmured and went back downstairs, sitting next to my dad.
*Back to Yuri's POV*
Yuri walked towards the window of my room and sat by the balcony, looking into the distance silently. The Third Eye revealed itself once again while she was looking out the window, almost as if she was spacing out. It walked closer to her and dug it's claw into her right arm.
*
She didn't feel pain, however both got a cut when it finished making the cut. Even if Yuri didn't feel physical pain, her eyes still watered as she thought: "I miss MC so much..".
Tears started streaming down her cheeks as she closed her eyes, The Third Eye started tearing up too, it wiped its own tear and looked at it and closed its eye, hugging its master carefully to not hurt her.
Yuri gasped and looked up, seeing it hugging her. She tried to hug it back, but it was in vain, it was still a spirit.
"D-Don't cry, it's okay.."
The Third Eye looked at Yuri worried, while Yuri tried to comfort it.
*Natsuki's POV*
Meanwhile, me and my dad were in the living room, he was watching some show on TV while I was reading manga. Yuri finally came out of my room and joined us.
"So, how many did you take?" - He asked, looking back at her.
"…I took five." - Yuri replied.
"Glad you liked my collection then."
I closed my manga volume, sighing: "There's nothing to do.. Dad, can we have a training session today?"
Yuri looked at me and then my dad, saying: "I want to fight you, Dadsuki. As I said, just a stab wound isn't nearly enough to scar you."
Dadsuki looked at Yuri and then turned away, saying: "Let's go then. Night time doesn't last forever."
As we walked to the destroyed village, I could feel Yuri's death glare on me and my dad, mostly on him. I was his accomplice, and I know she caught up to that already. I felt a chill down my spine.. She gave me the creeps when she was angry, it's a rare sight.
When we arrived, Dadsuki looked back at Yuri and said: "You wanna fight? Alright then. Let's see what you come up with."
Yuri took some of the knives out of her bag, some that she took from his room and some of her own. She threw them and remained with one. He dodged but while he did that, Yuri took that opportunity to try and stab him in the stomach, which was an unsuccessful attempt, given he grabbed her wrist and kicked her away.
"ARGH—" - Yuri yelped, holding her stomach, panting.
"Is that really all you've got, Yuri? You're impressive at wielding your knives and using your maneuvers.. But that alone won't be enough to be up against me." - He said, crossing his arms.
Yuri got back up, catching her breath. She smiled.
"No, it isn't. Because there is one thing you haven't considered, Dadsuki."
The Third Eye revealed itself, getting ready to attack at any moment in front of Yuri.
"It's not just me you have to fight.."
