World Record - Chapter 88. Dark History

88. Dark History

4 years agoDecember 11.

A war between humans and Unknowns occurred at a place located a few kilometers away from Sapporo.
Screams flutter, and angry voices roar.
Among such, only at one place has silence ruling over the entire zone.

Terererettereeterererette

A ringtone broke the silence.
When I look at my status application, I saw the name Nakajima Tomomi written on it and I tapped the name without hesitation.
Becha.
In doing so, a sound sounded softly.
When I look carefully, my arms were covered with blood. No, this warm and yet disgusting feeling covered my whole body. If by any chance theres a large mirror in front of me, then, it would show a bloodstained boy whos much more scarier than every hitman in the world.
While thinking of that, the call got connected.

What do you want, Nee-san?
Iwato? I just thought you would be done by now, but
Yeah, Im done. Every living things that I can see have all been killed

I said that without faltering.
Killed.
Penetrating the chest, headshot, crushing the skull, cutting off the abdomen, smashing the heart. I have killed every one of them.
When I stepped forward, a sickening sound can be heard from my feet.
The ident.i.ty is of coursecorpses.
The enemys corpses.
These enemythe cheeky and foolish group of Unknowns that attacked me, were all hunted by me mercilessly.
Theres no problem about it.
I just kill them because they are the enemy of mankind.
I just kill them because my mother kept telling me to do so.
I just kill them because its my job.
Emotions are not needed in such action. You could say that Im not feeling guilty at all.

After all, its a matter of course to kill in order to survive, so if I dont kill them, they will kill me. Its just that.

I see. Can you come and help me since youre done? Judging from the direction where you areits 10 a.m. About a few kilometers, I believe

Upon hearing that, I nod and look at the said direction.

Well then, time to kill more

I started walking while muttering it plainly.

At the same day.
The war reached the first stagethose words are probably not suitable in this case, but this conflict is different.
For this war, it should be called as Humanity VS One part of the Unknowns army. The troops that were annihilated just now and the great number that have yet to be captured, are just one part of it.

Well, its the same no matter how many comes

I dry my hair with the towel while saying that, and came out of the shower room.
Im currently in a room at the Sapporo Special Forces stationin other words, the private room of the King of Black Coffin.
Because I myself hate that it became difficult to take a stroll after becoming popular, no one is allowed to enter this room except for me. In the first place, low ranked members dont even know about me. Well, what I meant was below A rank.
However, in some kind of way, I have a visitor in my room.

Ah, Ill borrow the sofa

Saying that and lying down on the black sofa was a girl with golden hair thats close to white.
Theres the figure of dog ears popping out from her golden hair, informing that shes a Demi-human.
Well, theres a Holy Sword-looking thing thats set against the sofa, and the silver armor that she wore were lying around there.
When I saw her state, I sighed tiredly.

You came again? Can you stop coming here. It really is a trouble
Isnt it fine? Were in a relationship, arent we?

What kind of relationship was it?
When thinking that, I

The targeted Number One, and the Number Twowhos aiming at the position
Correct

Saying that, she raised her face quickly, and corrected her posture.
Her name isEsashi Sana.
Her nickname is

Absolute (World Recorder) Number TwoKing of Heroes (Pantheon)
Why so formal, King of Black Coffin (Black Pandora)?

She said that while grinning.
Dogno, as a wolf demi-human, the Absolute Number Two who crowned the name, King of Heroes.
She traveled around the world in the name of justice, and protected every countries peaceTruly, a hero.
Shes different from me as shes very popular. If she walks at the street, there will be a crowd in just a few minutes. If I remember correctly, she told me about it.
This time, she joined this war.
Because she was captured and persuaded by Kaa-san when she returned to j.a.pan by chanceas a result, she joined the war.

Why must you come to my room?
Eh, you dont have to mind
Please go back

I said that.
To be honestIm not good at dealing with this person.
What this and that about justice and evil For example, when humans confront Unknowns, if a human thought that he/she is the evil one, this person will definitely join the Unknowns.
Such thinking is just too uncomfortable.

Even though Im like this, Im busy. I need to kill all of the Unknowns
Haa, you reallydont change

She sighed upon hearing my words, and started to say something incomprehensible.

Listen! I said this before, but the thought of Unknown=Enemy is a dangerous thought. I dont know about it regarding this times war, but killing an Unknown on sight is a foolish way of thinking for me. In the Special Forces, this applies on you and your mother
Ha? What foolish thing are
Unknowns are alive

As if shes not letting me finishing my words.

Unknowns are alive. Well, of course humans dont have the composure to ask the a.s.saulting opponents Why are you attacking us?. If they attacked me suddenly, then I might also kill them. But at least, you should think whether the opponents are good or evil, capable to communicate or not.

Thats the minimum politeness the killing side can show.
She said that.
Select the Unknowns to kill.
Upon listening to her way of thinking, I

Ha? Are you an idiot?

laughed scornfully.
Unknowns are alive?
I know that because they can be killed.
Whether Unknowns are good or bad?
Such thingof course they are bad.

Unknowns are the enemy of mankind. It is our job as the Special Forces to kill them without hesitation and protect the peace. Even a kid knows about that
A world of wars or a world where everyone live peacefully. Even a kid knows which one is better

She said that and sighed.
I knew.
That coffin and hero will stay parallel no matter how far it goes.
This person and I will never understand each other.
Such thing, even a 13-year-oldin other words, I myself understood it easily. This worlds providence thats much more simpler than our opinions.

One day, you will regret it

I wore the cloak hanging on the sofa, and said that to her.

With such thinking, you will die when a smart enemy appeared. At the end of being tricked and falling into the worst caseyou would die in misery
Thank you for your advice

While hearing that, I turned my back on her and walked.
When I look at the corner of the room, the red lamp is blinking. That means that its an emergency state where I need to go.
Among such.

Well then, I guess I should go too

She looked back at me.

You will regret it before long.

For some reason, those words left a deep trace in my heart.

Oh, you reached!

When I raised my head upon hearing that, I can see my familiar subordinate. Black coat with her red hair tied behind. Wearing a katana on the waist, she waved her hand towards me.

Whats wrong, Nee-san?

Nee-san.
Even though I call her that, this person is not my older sister.
Nakajima Tomomi.
Shes the woman who I spent my childhood with and shes apparently my subordinate, but because my mother told me to pay respect to seniors, I call her Nee-san with intimacy and respect.
Well, for me, shes a sister-like person.

Ah, theres this outrageous guy who appeared
Outrageous guy?

Even if shes like this, Nee-san is still a monster with over 60 Battle Rank. Combined with the katana, she can even defeat a Sacred Beast cla.s.s.
If such her cant defeat it

A Divine Beast cla.s.s appeared

I turn my eyes upon hearing that.
I can see my motherNagumo Tsukie wearing a suit, sighed greatly.

To be precise, its an Unknown that seemed to be a Divine Beast cla.s.s. Its better to put it that way. After all, the people who were sent to measure the opponents abilities, were all killed. Its surely a monster with a Battle Rank higher than 100. So I want you to go and defeat it
Ah, okay

To be honest, if so, thenit shouldnt be a problem even if its Sana-san who go, butif my boss decided so, then I have no problem with that.
I sighed deeply, andher words pa.s.sed my mind.

(Unknowns are alive)

I know that very well.
I kill them because they are alive.
They are enemies. They must be killed.
Its a sin for themto stay alive.
I muttered that in my heart to persuade myself.

Well then, lets start killing

Its just pa.s.sed 4 p.m.
