CHAPTER 38

Shouko took a few more steps and grabbed the guy's shirt and lifted him up like it was anything.

And that's it, the problem is over...

"Sho-shouko!"

• Who the fuck are you, damn it, let me go bastard!

Shouko took a good look at the guy and saw that he was drunk, the smell confirmed it.

The guy began to hit as hard as he could and Shouko was unfazed by his insensitivity to pain.

These things stress him more and not because it is so, but because shouko's mental and hormonal state has been changing lately.

For example, insensitivity to pain, this thing is not all rosy, one of the effects, apart from not feeling any damage that you have in your body, whether external or internal, is also mental damage.

Shouko's mental state goes down and she has a low process in her functioning, also giving her tics, such as the small desire to do many things and neurological pneumalia.

And they are things that shouko ignores, but those simple things are negative effects of that ability, but there is a counterweight and I'll give you an example.

Let's say that Shouko has an IQ of 265, because when activating this ability she would have an IQ of 182, shouko's mental state doesn't affect her so much, because she was already a powerhouse, but a normal person would be dumber than people average.

But since he has it activated all the time, except to rest and sleep, this affects the body, since although his wounds heal faster in those periods, when he is not, this process is slow and very likely to be a greater damage. .

I just wanted to say these things, for those who don't know the consequences of insensitivity to pain.

Now back to the case.

Shouko threw the guy against the wall, making him crash.

"Shouko!"

Saki's scream was loud and she got on his back as she hugged him through tears.

The guy who had suffered a good blow wanted to get up, but that little pain made it a bit impossible to do so.

• Damn son of a bitch!.

•Who are you?.

-.....

A small kick caught shouko in the jaw that made him writhe in pain.

"D-don't hit him anymore.....p-please!"

Shouko looked at saki and she was trembling, with tears on her face and a very upset expression.

I remind him of najimi that time.

-This is your father, right?

".............Yeah".

Saki found it hard to speak, her own father wanted to rape her and if Shouko hadn't been here, she would have succeeded, but also out of instinct, she didn't want Shouko to hit him so hard.

In just seconds, he did not know how to act and what to say, his mind was crazy and his body was still afraid.

Now the only thing he wanted was to leave, to go away, he did not want to be here, fear, despair, sadness, betrayal, so many mixed feelings.

I notice that his father was drunk, but..... would this be some way to appease his action?

Shouko, already an expert, so to speak, in these types of scenes, just wanted to end this quickly.

-Must go...

He took off his jacket and gave it to Saki to wear.

-Let's go now.

"B-but...".

-.....

He just looked at saki and she just nodded and left the room, shouko closed the door for a few seconds to approach the old man.

[You don't even deserve me to do anything with you, and your own actions will show the consequences of your actions].

And so, shouko activates her power and uses it on saki's father.

Filling him with the greatest regret for the things he did today, whether he decides to kill himself out of guilt or not.

Then he takes his things and leaves.

Leaving the room, he finds Saki in the room in silence and leaves the house with her alone.

It was 8:10 p.m.

Now....where to go.

Going home and telling everything that happened and setting up the same scene in front of his parents, ha.

Already the cases of rape in my presence make my "Parents" very nervous and worried.

But...better not, I'll see how I fix this issue later.

Beside him on the way, was a Saki who gave off a lonely and depressed aura.

It didn't seem like he wanted to walk at a normal speed.

So shouko just crouched down and told him to get on his back.

-Get on...

"Hey...?".

-Just do it!.

Paying attention, saki gets on, then our protagonist, advances at a reasonable speed while feeling that on his back, saki's mood goes from bad to worse, the more time passes, the more he reasoned and suffered more and more from what he experienced.

Minutes later, he arrives at a small hotel where he would stay, and with a few extra words and a little extra money support, he made the quick process with the guy who attended him, since he didn't want problems for being minors.

Afterwards, it is arranged to enter the room and place Saki on the bed.

This one had a weak body right now.

Shouko just rolled her eyes and sat next to her, instantly, Saki hugs her and cries, letting go of everything she had put up with all the way.

Our expressionless protagonist just lets saki release all the pain she's feeling right now, and it's clear, her own father tried to abuse her.

The strength of the hug was strong and it seems like it will take a long time for it to end.

After a few minutes, saki had fallen asleep, so many consecutive tears made her lose enough strength to stay awake.

Shouko alone, puts her on the bed so she can sleep well and then walks away from the place a bit.

He picks up his cell phone and makes a call.

...

....

.....

-Hello....

→Shouko, daughter, where are you? I'm worried, did something happen to you on the way?

-Something... like that, I just came to tell you that... I'm at a friend's house and well, since it's late, I think it's better to stay, so as not to have problems along the way.

→Are you still at saki's house?

-No, not anymore, I'm...at Yamai's house.

→Don't you want me to send your father and bring you with the car?

-No..., don't worry, also, let's say it's my first time, spending the night at a house belonging to..."A friend"....

It was hard for shouko to say those words, since for him Yamai is nothing close to a friend.

→Well.....okay, please take care when you come back, promise me?

-If I promise you.

After some small talk, the conversation ended.

If she said Saki's house, it was likely that unconsciously, my mother would call Saki's mother, since she has her number and a warning would not have worked, in the face of a mother's concern.

Calming her thoughts, she finds a chair and sits down.

Within two days, things happened to him that he never expected to happen to him.

Now he is connected, supposedly, with the most powerful family of assassins that governs this city.

I think that should be my starting point, in total strength.

But now that is what it will have for me on Sunday.

I take out the paper that that woman gave me, and I look at her carefully.

Is it some kind of training...or test?.

Mmm.....whatever it is, this is a double edged sword, I get power but I put myself in the crosshairs of a giant beast.

But to solve or appease that, it is necessary to know your leader and know what kind of person he is and also, know his members.

But before that, comes the case of Sunday....

It will be to see what this woman has prepared for me.

Although....just to be cautious.....

Shouko picks up her cell phone again, she notices that she has messages in her chats, but she doesn't decide to answer, she just makes a call...

The cell phone begins to ring until it then connects with the other person.

"Hello Yamai...

.

.

.

.

The next day.

The sun illuminated the whole place, the birds sang and the sound of people in the streets became recognizable.

Typical in the morning.

Saki's body reacts to this and begins to wake up.

With red eyes from excessive crying the night before and with a body weakness, from yesterday's wear and tear.

He got up slowly and rubbed his eyes in pain.

The place is unrecognizable for a few seconds, so instinctively she moves her head from right to left and manages to see a person, who is very recognizable to her...Shouko.

Our protagonist was sitting in a chair sleeping, he had apparently stayed by himself doing his things with his cell phone.

"...Shouko."

The call of his name makes him wake up intuitively and he opens his eyes in alarm, to then react with pain in his body.

Since, as usual, when he sleeps, he deactivates his ability not to feel pain and that is why he feels the wounds and bruises, which he had in the fight with the woman's men.

Although, the healing is fast and the pain will disappear in 2 days.

The pain makes him come to consciousness and he notices the direction of the voice.

-....ah, it's you.

I see you woke up.

"....What are we doing here?".

-Have you already forgotten about the incident yesterday?

"Incident....?".

Saki starts to remember and when she does her body shakes and her mood drops.

"oh I see".

Shouko stands up from her seat, ignoring the pain, touches Saki's head with her hand and then speaks.

-Saki, you must be prepared for the injustices of life, so now with that knowledge, stop and go wash your face, time waits for no one.

The deep and penetrating gaze connected with Saki's, causing the words to impact him.

Then he obeys in silence and goes to the bathroom.

Shouko sees how saki walks away and just thinks.

[Life is really unfair, some are lucky, others have a tragic destiny.....].

[We can't be waiting for someone to save us, we can't be waiting for everything to have a happy ending].

[And we cannot be expecting that even by doing good, we will do better in life, since we are all villains to other people's stories].

[So what do we have left.....?].

[To live, to live, just because dying is not a better option?].

With a denial and a wry smile, he puts that thought aside.

After that, he settles in bed and activates his ability, and then as an effect, he falls asleep again.
