Izuka - Chapter 151
Etto… Seriously? Narukami asked himself as he was baffled. There was such an organization with a ridiculous name and it was also a rather big one? The coincidences were just as terrifying and ridiculous!
If this was a story, it was badly executed by the author to introduce a new villain organization!
“So they’re bad?” Narukami asked.
“Extremely bad. Rumors said they hang up the heads of betrayals in front of their front doors!” Jim replied as he was frightened.
That’s illegal and the cops would have a reason to catch and annihilate the organization, thought Narukami in his mind.
“You’ve heard the rumors too? One of the people I knew said his friend had seen much more terrible things! His friend even did crimes in public so he could get into prison for safety!”
“Why? He only sees it. Not like he did anything bad,” asked Jim.
“Probably the organization is afraid that he’ll open his mouth to the police of what he saw. That way, the police have a reason to investigate their place.”
Simply put, they want to shut the guy’s mouth.
“Narukami, is it Day Fallers? They’re the type that always acts with a clear purpose,” asked Jim doubtfully.
“You know a lot about them,” said Narukami as he walked to the exit. The two guys behind him followed as they left behind the corpses.
Remembering there was that, Jaz turned his head around as he saw the motionless bodies through the edge of his eyes.
“Will it be okay, though? Leaving them just like that?” Jaz pondered.
“It’s okay, they deserve it. Raping a woman and they probably had done many similar acts in the past,” said Jim in Narukami’s stead.
Although he got his legs weakened when Narukami started a massacre. He had no sympathy for them. It was always better to get rid of the trash before it affected the environment, or in this case, society.
“I know that but…” Jaz halted his words in the middle as he stopped his pace, turned around, and then approached the nearest dead body.
Knowing this, Narukami paused his steps and shifted his line of sight to Jaz as he was curious what Jaz was planning to do.
The dead body Jaz approached has a deep cut over his chest, showing the inside. A pink-colored heart could be seen through the gap as blood had stopped flowing out.
Grabbing the person’s legs, Jaz dragged him to the outside, to the back of the building, forming a blood trail in the process.
Jim and Narukami followed him from behind and when they were there, the backyard of the building.
There was a medium size greenhouse filling up the backyard but the plants inside were brown and their stem was facing downward. Jaz entered with the corpse.
Jim looked at Narukami as he wore a puzzled expression upon Jaz’s actions. His expression was as though asking, what is he planning?
Narukami shook his head, he did not know either.
In the next moment, they found out what Jaz was planning. He dug up a tiny grave with a plant shovel, placed the corpse into it, and covered it with dirt. The greenhouse now had a small bump.
“I just can’t let them die in a place like that. They are humans. No matter how rotten they are, they at least deserve to be buried,” said Jaz with a low tone.
Narukami and Jim reflexively turned and looked at each other before shifting their gaze to Jaz.
Narukami approached Jaz as he patted his right shoulder, “I understand, I’ll help you.”
Hesitated, Jim finally said, “I’ll help.”
It would be awkward if he was the only one who’s not helping.
“You guys… but you don’t have to,” said Jaz as he did not want to trouble them.
“It’s okay,” said Narukami in reassurance as he let go of his hand from Jaz’s shoulder.
“And thank you,” said Narukami abruptly as he rotate his body 180 degrees, walking away as he entered the building. Jim nodded at Jaz before pursuing Narukami.
Narukami’s words left Jaz confused and he was truly shocked.
But he put that at the back of his mind first so he could focus on the matter at hand. He raised from the ground and quickened his pace as he went into the building.
Narukami was walking on the hallway connecting to the floor they were earlier to the backyard.
As he walked, he averted his gaze from looking forward to his hands. He then clenched it tightly.
Recalling Jaz’s words, Narukami realized something.
Humans were fragile creatures. Their mothers raise them for many years but a single bad day or bad thing happened, they wanted to end their lives.
Yet at the same time, they were stronger and more perfect than any creatures that existed. They never give up.
They may want to end their lives but the strongest was the one who chose not to. This was because they still have hope in their hearts, hoping something better would happen.
Of course, they have to work hard to achieve what they were hoping for to come true.
And from another story, those who still have hope and want to do better but the environment did not support them, had to work twice as hard but sometimes, the reality was cruel.
They have no choice but to do everything they can to stay alive. The people Narukami had killed earlier fall into this category.
They are just humans who want to live yet the world suppressed them so low they turned to ‘bad’ guys.
No, there were no bad guys in the first place. They were just people who never showed the greatness and beauty of this world.
Even if they were still bad after being shown, that meant they had fallen so deep that there was nothing to help them except stop them from falling deeper.
Anyway, Narukami had learned something valuable. All lives had their worth, everyone had dreams and something they wanted to do.
No lives as light as a feather.
With this new line of thought installed in his mind like new software. Hold on, before one continued, one wanted to point out that Narukami had thought of this before but he did not care as it disappeared the next day.
This mindset was truly worthless in his four previous lives. Even if he did not want to kill, the situation sometimes called for it.
He hated the idea of taking someone’s lives but he could not do anything about it. Ever since his first reincarnation, he believed that killing a person with the right reason was necessary and so, that goes on and on until his last reincarnation.
This time, he was reminded of his hatred towards killing and truly thought about it, contemplating it solemnly and pondering it carefully rather than try forgetting it like he usually did.
Narukami said to himself as he was determined, That’s right, I must not take lives as if it has no weight. This world is different, killing not always be the case.
Reaching the floor, Narukami grabbed the corpses as if they were nothing and carried about 10 dead people on his body, all the way to the greenhouse.
Jim could only drag a person and he was disgusted by it. It was an amazing feat in itself that he did not puke.
Seeing Narukami easily carry ten people, Jim was impressed. At the same time, he reflexively compared himself to Narukami, this results in him being dejected.
Yet at the same time, he was filled with hope as he wanted to be as strong as Narukami and show it to the gal.
He was capable of imagining a scene in his head where he showed his biceps to beautiful women sitting around him and fawning over him.
Nothing was better than being praised by the ladies.
“What are you dazing for? Let’s go.” Narukami said as he looked at Jim’s expression, which was a lewd expression as his cheek was as red as a beet.
Narukami was not particularly bothered by it. Snapping Jim from his wandering mind to reality was enough.
“Yes, okay!” Jim hurriedly responded as he hastened his steps to follow Narukami’s back.
Later, after three minutes to be precise. They arrived at the backyard and Narukami laid down the ten dead bodies to the ground.
They fell with a heavy thud.
Before that, however, Jaz was amazed as he saw Narukami carry ten people on his body! His eyes were wide open as he was shocked and his mouth slightly opened.
“This is all the people,” said Narukami after he laid down the corpses.
“Un, thank you, Narukami.” Jaz smiled before it disappeared as he dug graves for them
“Let me help you with that,” said Narukami as he offered his help.
“Okay.” Jaz nodded.
Narukami said as he walked into the middle of the greenhouse, “Step back.”
Narukami raised his feet as he said that.. Jim and Jaz looked at each other as they followed his words.
