Chapter 207 - 207: The First gal to Fall

The moment Kazuma appeared, before the thugs and scum could even grasp the situation, Senior Shu had already reacted and bolted, fully embodying the word 'fear' with his actions.

He ran with exceptional decisiveness, not even bothering to care about his girlfriend.

But even so, he was shot in the thigh by Kazuma. He lay on the ground, wailing and trying to crawl away. It was clear that fear had seeped into his very marrow. Then again, seeing the gun in his hand, who wouldn't be afraid?

Especially with Kazuma's ruthless and decisive way of firing the gun, the surrounding group all knelt in unison, looking at Kazuma in terror. The threat of death loomed over their heads, and an atmosphere of fear permeated the air.

They seemed to understand why that guy Shu had turned and run. "Big brother, it's a misunderstanding, everything just now was a misunderstanding—"

"To be honest, I've been getting a bit tired of cleaning up trash every day. Can't you rats hiding in the sewers just behave yourselves…"

Sachi propped herself up with one hand, the other clutching her stomach, and lifted her head with difficulty. After seeing that it was truly Kazuma and not a hallucination, the blonde gal almost wanted to cry; no, she was actually crying.

She never imagined there would come a day when she would long for Kazuma's appearance so desperately, and he actually appeared. That feeling of soaring from hell to heaven in an instant, from despair to hope, made it hard for her to control her emotions.

The dramatic ups and downs of life couldn't be described with words to capture her current state of mind.

Kazuma...

Sachi had genuinely feared and dreaded him before, wanting to stay as far away as possible from this dangerous boy, and she had firmly resolved to avoid him. Who could have predicted something like this would happen? Even more unexpected was that he would come to rescue her. The girl bit her cherry lips hard, her gaze peeking through her bangs as she stared blankly at him.

For some reason, she suddenly no longer felt wary of Kazuma. Besides, compared to him, these people were far more terrifying and dangerous.

"FK!! Get him!!!"

Provoked by Kazuma's taunting attitude, the group suddenly erupted. As if following a premeditated plan, they swarmed him, trying to overwhelm him with their numbers and snatch his gun. Sachi was scared pale.

"Watch out!"

"Haha!! This pretty boy, really thinks having a gun means he can do whatever he wants... Go ahead, shoot me if you dare!"

Bang!

The man who spoke insolently was shot in the forehead on the spot, collapsing with a look of disbelief. A faint, twisted smile played on Kazuma's lips as he faced the man who had already charged to his side, calmly reaching out.

Smack!

He pressed down on the man's head. The latter stiffened, feeling an irresistible force preventing him from pushing back. Then the world spun. Kazuma grabbed his hair and slammed him hard against the wall.

BOOM!!!

His head was cracked open, his face a bloody, unrecognizable mess. Blood splattered shockingly on the wall. Another man who had rushed before Kazuma froze, but it was too late. Kazuma turned his head, flashed him a toothy grin, and then pressed down on his skull too.

"Wai—"

Bang—!!!

This section of the wall was now adorned with neatly aligned bloodstains and lifeless heads, perfectly illustrating what true, absolute crushing force meant. That kind of domineering, irresistible, and absolute violence made the sole surviving senior student wet himself in terror.

"You... I... Kazuma! I've never provoked you! Don't do anything rash!"

The stench of urine made Kazuma wrinkle his nose in disgust. He stopped walking, not wanting to get any closer. "You're right, you haven't provoked me. Seems you have some sense in that head. Logically, I should let you go."

Before the man could show any relief, Kazuma added in a sinister tone, "The problem is, you saw everything that just happened, didn't you?"

Kazuma wore the expression of a classic villain. "Since you've witnessed what I've done, I definitely can't let you leave now—"

"I didn't see anything! I saw nothing, Kazuma-kun! My girlfriend, I can give her to you! She's quite pretty, right? If you like her, you can take Sachi with you. I have no objections at all, just please spare me..."

This cuckold bastard knelt on the ground, weeping and sniveling, a far cry from the cold, arrogant demeanor he had shown toward his girlfriend earlier.

"No need to worry about that. Even if you had objections, they wouldn't matter."

Bang!!!

His eyes widened in shock, perhaps unable to believe that even after such a humble plea, this Kazuma still wouldn't spare him. With his collapse, the dark, gloomy alley fell completely silent. The ground littered with corpses and blood was brutally horrifying, chilling to the bone.

Kazuma put away his gun and muttered softly to himself. He was indeed becoming more ruthless lately. Ever since the Boeyman Family was dealt with, he had grown increasingly decisive and merciless when it came to killing. But that wasn't necessarily a bad thing.

Cleaning up this trash makes the world a better place~

Kazuma turned around and looked at the sole survivor. "Hey, Sachi. I just killed your boyfriend. You're not going to blame me, are you?"

The girl was slumped on the ground, her beautiful blonde hair messy and dusty, her face no longer delicate and cute but streaked with tears. Her clothes were filthy. For a Japanese girl, this disheveled state was terrible. Coming back to her senses, she quickly turned her face away, hiding it in the shadows.

She didn't want him to see her dirty, messy state. No way.

How could she possibly blame him? It was Kazuma who saved her. If he hadn't appeared, she would have already been... by these scumbags. And that senior... just thinking of him now made her feel nauseous and filled with intense disgust.

She didn't understand why she had ever dated someone like that in the first place.

"Aren't you scared? I just killed these people," Kazuma raised an eyebrow.

"It's better that they're dead."

If it were the old me, I would definitely be scared, terrified, and develop an even greater fear of Kazuma-kun. But now, I don't feel that way at all. Looking at the miserable deaths of these people, watching that senior beg pathetically before dying, Sachi only felt a sense of satisfaction.

Serves them right!!

That bastard, even before dying, tried to use me as a bargaining chip to give away. He's truly scum! But... if it were to Kazuma-kun...

"Looks like you've been through quite an ordeal," Kazuma gradually understood. Having just survived such a dangerous assault and being terrified, this bit of bloody carnage probably didn't seem like much in comparison.

"Thank you, Kazuma-kun," Sachi didn't forget to express her gratitude. The moment he appeared, she truly felt like crying from overwhelming relief. That feeling of going from despair to hope was something she would never forget for the rest of her life, deeply etched in her heart.

"How did you know... that I was in danger?" She hadn't even sent a complete message, had she? Yet he arrived in the blink of an eye. Is Kazuma-kun some kind of kami? He's amazing.

"Although you only sent a seemingly meaningless punctuation mark, I could discern the meaning you wanted to convey." Besides this premonition, the main reason was the system's Wish List. That's why Kazuma said she had been through a lot.

These heroines tend to generate a Wish List due to intense inner turmoil when they encounter perverted assaults.

Now Sachi's Wish List was also completed, adding another 5 lottery coins to his account. Combined with Chizuru's, he had 10 more gacha chances. But Kazuma wasn't in a hurry; he didn't need new items right now.

"Thank you... Kazuma," Sachi whispered her thanks again. She felt incredibly fortunate to have met Kazuma. This boy was really different from everyone else. Even though he had done bad things to her last time, that was after she had bullied him first.

And he was still willing to come help her, which deeply moved the blonde gal.

Initially, she had regretted getting involved with such a dangerous person. But now, a sudden impulse surged within Suzu. She wanted to get closer to him. That sense of security that calmed her down, and a certain special feeling, made the blonde girl's heart flutter incessantly.

"Can't stand up? Do you want me to help you?" Kazuma walked up to the girl and bent down.

"Eek— No!"

Sachi didn't know why. Even though Kazuma's concern and gentle words made her happy, overjoyed even, her reaction was so strong. She curled up, trying to shrink away.

"It's not that bad, is it? Am I that scary? I just wanted to help you up," Kazuma said, sweating a little.

"No, I'm not scared," Sachi murmured, head bowed and curled into a ball, her tone humble. "It's just... I look terrible right now... dirty." Precisely because she was starting to care about him, Sachi didn't want him to see her disheveled, dirty face.

"My bag has a makeup kit, Kazuma. Could you get it for me?"

Kazuma's face darkened. "Enough already. Getting beaten up is fine, but the makeup can't be ruined, is that it? Lift your head, let me see."

The girl's protest was naturally useless. The arm she used to cover her face was gently pushed aside by Kazuma, revealing her dirty face. There was also a red, swollen slap mark that hadn't faded.

"It's a bit swollen. What's the point of putting on makeup now? You should go back and get some medicine on it," Kazuma complained.

"I... I look awful right now, don't I?" the girl said weakly, her eyes darting away.

"Not really. Although your hair's a mess and you're not as polished as before, you don't look bad. A pretty girl won't turn ugly even if she rolls around in mud," Kazuma said. This wasn't just comfort; he was telling the truth.

So Sachi was happy. She no longer hid her face and lowered her guard around Kazuma. However, one hand still pressed against her stomach, where she had been kicked several times. The pain hadn't lessened.

Sachi grabbed Kazuma's hand, trying to stand up, but the pain in her stomach made her whimper softly, and she still couldn't get up. It hurt.

Tears glistened in Sachi's eyes as she said pitifully, "Let me see."

Kazuma placed his hand on her stomach. "Want me to rub it for you?"

"Mm-hmm."

The two were close together, the blonde gal almost leaning into his embrace. Watching the boy before her gently massage her stomach, Sachi was mesmerized. Even the pain in her body gradually faded, leaving only the fluttering in her heart echoing incessantly.

It seemed... she had already fallen.
