Two members of an assassin organization teamed up to eliminate Kamado Rize.
Under normal circumstances, even at great cost, they should have succeeded.
But they never expected things to turn out this way.
No, one of them was already dead.
Only the loudmouth ghoul remained.
He looked at Kamado Rize, his face full of disbelief and frustration.
"Impossible, Kamado Rize, why is your strength so different from the intel we received?"
According to the information provided by the Washuu family.
Kamado Rize was S+, close to SS-level.
But now, she was clearly SS-level!
In her enraged state, she might even be stronger?!
Why?
How could she have gained so much power in such a short time!?
Kamado Rize's eyes, black and red, glowed with intensity as she stared at him from a distance.
At this point, her whole being—both mentally and emotionally—was in turmoil.
Even though there was still a knife lodged in her stomach, Kamado Rize casually pulled it out and threw it aside as if it were nothing.
A mere wound, nothing to worry about.
As she heard the ghoul speak, Kamado Rize remembered the food she had recently eaten.
Recalling those delicious meals, her face flushed red, and her expression became intoxicated.
She reached up to touch the corner of her mouth.
Saliva filled her mouth.
In the midst of the brutal battlefield.
Gulp~
Kamado Rize swallowed hard.
The ghoul watching her grew tense, thinking she had eaten something.
"What did you eat?!"
Kamado Rize smiled and replied, "Savoring it."
The next moment, without waiting for the ghoul to react.
Kamado Rize, dragging her severely injured body, launched another fierce attack!
She was completely unhinged.
Even in a 1v2, she fought back with injuries, exchanging wounds for kills!
It was the same now!
"Crazy!"
The ghoul screamed, now truly panicked.
The two of them clashed once again.
Boom! Boom! Boom~~!
In an instant, blades clashed, sparks flew.
Broken walls and columns sent debris flying, destroying the surrounding park and facilities!
Kamado Rize's four tail kagunes were relentlessly striking the enemy, creating as much damage as possible, even if it meant injuring herself!
On the other side, the ghoul's kagune and weapon could barely block Rize's frenzied assault!
It was madness, truly madness!
The ghoul gritted his teeth, exchanging injuries with Rize!
After a moment of trading blows, he suddenly saw an opening.
This opening seemed like hope.
He quickly closed the gap, used his weapon to parry one of Kamado Rize's attacks, and then used his kagune to thrust it deep into her!
Plop~!
Plop~!
Seeing his kagune pierce through Kamado Rize's chest, the ghoul smiled, thinking he had succeeded.
But the next moment, the sharp pain in his chest made him snap back to reality.
Why were there two plop sounds?
Because another attack, Kamado Rize's kagune, pierced him from behind and above!
This was a fatal blow-for-fatal blow exchange.
Both of them spat blood.
But the enemy had two fatal wounds.
"No... no..."
Hearing the ghoul's plea for mercy.
Kamado Rize's expression remained emotionless as she pulled her kagunes in opposite directions!
Rip~!
In the next moment, the ghoul's body was torn apart like a rag.
One half was flung into the hallway, and the other half was thrown into a tree.
At this point.
Both of the Washuu family's lapdogs were dead.
Kamado Rize, with a fatal wound.
"A mere fatal wound..." she muttered, coughing up blood and leaning against the wall.
Her pupils slowly returned to normal.
Her RC cells were almost depleted.
Her vision went dark, and her consciousness grew faint.
This was the precursor to her collapse.
"I can't pass out here..."
Kamado Rize knew that if she fell here, she would definitely be captured by the incoming CCG.
The outcome would be the same.
So before she passed out.
Kamado Rize looked toward the left side of the house.
There was no food at home, and she had thrown away all the meat. Now, she was far away from her house.
Kamado Rize then looked to the right.
There, in the distance, was the Midnight Diner—there was food and there was the owner.
Without a doubt.
Kamado Rize smiled nonchalantly.
"Even if I die, I want to die next to my favorite food... Hayashi-kun."
Dragging her fatal wounds, Kamado Rize began walking toward the Midnight Diner.
.....
Inside the Midnight Diner at this moment.
Takahashi Tsubaka had finished the tea rice and was now sipping lemon tea.
After a sip, her eyes lit up.
"This is also incredibly delicious."
"Of course," Toru replied proudly.
Takahashi Tsubaka looked at the bowl and the lemon tea.
Still, she was curious and asked Hayashi, "Did you really make this, Chef? I mean, it's so delicious, it might even be better than the top ten chefs of Totsuki."
"By the way, my name is Takahashi Tsubaka."
"Hayashi," Hayashi nodded, confirming that he had made it himself.
"The top ten doesn't matter. The only thing that matters is if the customers think it's delicious."
Hearing this, Tsubaka nodded in agreement.
At first, Tsubaka loved gymnastics, which was why she had such a great physique. However, due to family circumstances, she switched to being a chef.
She hadn't graduated from Totsuki, and that had caused many restaurants to reject her. Even though she had proven her culinary skills, they only cared about the credentials.
Even the high-end restaurant she worked at had only given her the head chef position because no one else was available. She might even be replaced soon.
So, after hearing Hayashi's words, Tsubaka agreed and said, "Italian restaurants offered me many opportunities. If it weren't for Rikka, I would have gone to Italy a long time ago."
"Rikka will be going to high school soon. After she graduates from middle school, she'll come to Tokyo. Once she settles in, I plan to go to Italy."
Hayashi: ?
What Tsubaka was saying didn't align with what he knew, and the changes were quite significant.
Perhaps this was because of the mixed world.
Takahashi Rikka's school and location were different now, so her chuunibyou may have been passed on by others or self-taught online?
Tsubaka hadn't gone to Italy either, delaying it for a while.
It seemed like the reason was the ghouls and demons—Tsubaka couldn't leave Rikka alone in the country while she studied abroad.
