Chapter 025 | Momo's Confirmation

(A/N: This is unedited and it's my fault for being so late... Don't blame Gab for the mistakes all me)

(E/n: I MADE IT! IT'S EDITED!)

Zinon got up off the ground cracking his neck as he sat comfortably on Mr.Yaoyorozu's chair. He was already thinking of re-designs, but first, he would need to get Mrs.Yaoyorozu on his side… fully.

If he played things smart, he could finish the quest rather easily, especially if he used All For One's help… "That's my grandfather technically right?... Well, how convenient" Zinon said to himself as he opened the tab for the quest's objectives.

Seeing the skill was nice, and the fact it didn't have a level meant it was like [Gamer's Mind] and [Gamer's Body], as well as Inspect, he didn't need to level it up…

Though he didn't care about that at the moment, all due to the fact he had received the reward he actually cared about. This was the one he had accepted the quest for in the first place. The extra class slot.

He already knew that if he got his class to 100%, then he could choose a new class, but it had to stay in the same category. This meant he would need to stay in the assassin class but he could choose a different specialization.

The extra class slot, however, would let him get an entirely new class, Like Mage, Berserker, Etc.

'What would be good... I'm already an assassin... I should start leveling that up...' Zinon thought to himself as he looked around at the room.

The best ones he saw were berserker and Mage, both good choices when he saw the specializations.

[Berserker]:

[Massacre], [Enraged], [Calm], [Boosted]

[Mage]:

[Summoner], [Necromancer], [Enchanter], [Healer]

'Hm...' Zinon thought with a sigh as he looked over at the classes, "Hey... What are you doing in here?" Momo asked standing in front of the door, looking over at Zinon who looked up slightly shocked.

Zinon, immediately smiling as he saw Momo, just stood up and walked over. "Doesn't matter, What about you? Inoue might need some comfort" Zinon said as he hurriedly shooed Momo out of the office and stood outside of it with his arm around her.

"I... Felt uncomfortable... I never really liked her... so it's weird... suddenly... I know it's horrible but" Momo's words trailed off as Zinon looked at her with slight surprise that she had said what was actually on her mind.

'This isn't usually how women work...'

"So... You don't want to comfort her?... Well, I guess I can't force you-"

"It's not that... I just... what if she framed my father?" Momo said as Zinon could practically hear the gears turning in her head as she thought of possible reasons.

"Why would anyone frame your father... besides why would she?" Zinon said, rolling his eyes as they reached the terrace overlooking the huge backyard they had.

"Are you kidding? My father isn't exactly unknown... we're first in businesses across the world... Anyone would frame him... and I think Inoue and her father planned it..."

Zinon, hearing Momo's words, nearly laughed out loud at the irony of him being the one to frame them. Though Momo wasn't finished talking.

"I haven't seen them in years, But as soon as she shows up, her father does and conveniently my father raped his daughter? It doesn't add up..."

Momo, sighing as she wondered why someone would do that.

"So you'd rather see her die?... I mean who cares right? She framed your father... theoretically..."

Momo, widening her eyes at Zinon's words, Slapped his arm. "That's not funny... no one deserves to die, no matter how terrible they are... everyone deserves a second chance... even you" Momo finished her words as she looked out at the backyard, not realizing what she said.

Zinon nodded before his heart skipped a beat and he looked down at Momo, who didn't seem to notice his discomfort.

"What... What do you mean?" He asked a cold sweat falling down from his neck as she looked up at him reluctantly opening her mouth.

Momo, realizing what she said, looked up in shock at Zinon, before swallowing and looking at him. "I... Tell me... did you... Kill Kai and his family?" Momo asked, her heart beating a million times an hour as her eyes shook, looking at Zinon's discomforted expression...

"I... I just thought it was obvious you had something to do with Kai... I... I didn't say anything though... I promise... But... did you..." Momo swallowed dry as her eyes shook even harder, her chest rising as she gathered the courage to finish. "K-Kill him... them?"

*Crack*

Zinon looked down at Momo's expression as his hands gripped against the railing, [Astral Aura] spilling out and twisting it slightly under his grip.

Turning away, Zinon looked in the sky, the sun catching his fiery red hair. "If I did... How would you feel about me then..." Zinon asked after a few moments, his fists clenched in his pockets.

"As I said before, Everyone deserves a second chance... I doubt you'd want to be a hero for no reason... isn't this the best start?" Momo answered immediately, her heart surprisingly calming down as he basically confessed.

"That... makes no sense... Trash doesn't deserve a second chance... if you think that then you're more naive than I thought..." Zinon said as he didn't understand her logic.

He knew he was a hypocrite, and he also knew he fell into the category of trash, what he didn't understand was the second chance part... it didn't make sense.

"I'm not an idiot... don't push away my thoughts because you think they're wrong... I..." Momo's words trailed off as Zinon looked back, his cold stare stopping her from talking.

"Momo... Tell me straight up... Do you truly think second chances are a thing?... Anyone who gets them has an insane amount of luck... otherwise... they... they don't get a chance... I don't know why I'm arguing with you" Zinon sighed as he left the terrace quickly, leaving the young dark-haired girl in her own thoughts.

She wouldn't simply change her way of thinking just for her feelings of Zinon, though she hoped that he'd consider them...

...

"Bullshit... doesn't make sense... Ugh..." Zinon sighed as he rested his head against a wall around 2 hours later. He had left the mansion, scared of what would happen now that he had basically told Momo he had killed Kai.

'He deserved it... but... Ugh' Just as Zinon was raising his head a familiar word reached his ears... well not a word... but a sound.

"Ahh!" A girl's scream reached his ears as he looked down an alley seeing a man pinning her to the wall.

'Ugh... I have no time for this' Zinon thought to himself as he started walking away, annoyed at the interruption.

"I doubt you'd want to be a hero for no reason... isn't this the best start?" Momo's words ringed in his ears as he walked off.

"P-Please leave me alone, I-I," The girl said as her mouth was gagged by the man's hand, covering it and not allowing the words to come out as he started to slowly strip her, an excited and lustful expression on his face...
