It was already dark, and there was a hint of chill in the air. A long-haired man wearing a black leather jacket pressed his peaked cap and walked from the warm house. When he came into contact with the cold air, he couldn't help but shiver.

I couldn't help but curse: "Damn it, it's already April, why is it still so cold!"

It's obviously quite warm during the day, even a little hot, so why is it so cold at night?

The long-haired man feels that the recent weather in Tokyo is really abnormal.

Suddenly, the long-haired man felt a chill on his neck. He subconsciously reached out to touch his neck, and then accidentally knocked his head off.

The head fell to the ground, and there was even a trace of confusion in the long-haired man's eyes. He was confused as to why the weather suddenly turned cold, confused as to why his neck suddenly felt cold, confused as to why he seemed to be unable to feel his body...

The head of the person with a confused expression rolled towards a figure that suddenly appeared not far away.

After kicking the head away, Esdeath took a few steps forward, and when he approached the headless body, he lightly patted it on the shoulder.

"Please give way, you are blocking the door."

The headless body fell down upon hearing the sound. The severed head was covered with a layer of frost, sealing the fracture. This is why there was no hot blood splattering on the body even though the head was severed.

Slowly walked into the room where the long-haired man came out, and soon, a man's voice came from the room.

"Who are you and what are you doing here..."

The man's voice stopped suddenly, and Junichiro Izumida, who was waiting outside the house, knew very well what happened to him even if he didn't see it with his own eyes - Esdeath never stayed when he was doing "work".

Passed through the living mouth.

"Advisor Esdeath... she seems to be in a very high mood today!"

Junichiro Izumida, who was sitting in the driver's seat of the car, said softly.

This wasn't the first time he had experienced something like this, but it was still somewhat unaccustomed to it.

Next to him, Sougo Okita, who was leaning on the passenger seat, chuckled and said, "When you can kill people, your Queen's interest is always particularly high."

When he addressed Ryoko Yakushiji as "Her Majesty the Queen", it was somewhat teasing, but when he called Esdeath "Your Majesty the Queen", even if he deliberately looked casual, he couldn't hide it.

Okita Sougo's fear of Esdeath.

Although Okita Sougo is also a jerk and has killed many gangsters with his own hands, he is not a cruel and murderous person.

And Esdeath... this woman, her passion for killing and fighting is engraved in her bones, and she is an out-and-out slut-shaking madman.

Compared with Esdeath, Okita Sougo felt that he was just a little shady at best.

"Okita..."

Ryoko Yakushiji, who was sitting in the back seat, suddenly spoke.

"What's the matter with Your Majesty the Queen?"

Okita Sougo asked.

"Her Majesty the Queen" and "Her Majesty the Queen", Okita Sougo was quite comfortable with calling them, and he didn't feel it was inappropriate.

"Is Esdeath any different from before recently?"

Yakushiji Ryoko lowered the window to let in some of the cold air outside the car.

The air was not that cold originally. It was after Esdeath went out that the temperature here suddenly dropped a lot.

She also had a vague chill in her body before, but it was definitely not as strong as it is now.

"No, if so, it means that the Queen has become more and more unfathomable!"

Okita Sougo thought for a while and said.

In the past, he could still feel the gap between himself and Esdeath slightly, but now, this feeling is becoming more and more blurred. In other words, now he can no longer even see the full extent of Esdeath's strength. This is obviously

Esdeath has gone further and further on the road to being a great swordsman. It seems that he has to work harder and can no longer rely on his talent to sleep in every day.

"Indeed." Ryoko Yakushiji nodded lightly, "Although Esdeath used to give people a strong impression, after the last battle at 'Shuiyue Palace', she gave people more and more...

It’s becoming more and more unfathomable.”

"Counsellor, is it really okay to let Advisor Esdeath kill these prisoners?"

Junichiro Izumada, the only normal person among the three, expressed his concerns.

This time they came because they received a tip that someone was making counterfeit banknotes here. The nature of the counterfeit banknote case was of course very bad, and the social impact it would cause in the future would be higher than ordinary murder cases, but it was not a violent crime after all, which made Esther

Is it really okay for Si to come forward?

Even the "True Martial Arts Team" with real law enforcement powers can only be deployed when facing martial artists and criminals with thermal weapons, not to mention Esdeath is not a real police officer.

"No problem." Ryoko Yakushidera said without thinking, "Just throw a pistol at the scene afterwards."

If the other party has a pistol, he is not an ordinary criminal, and law enforcement can be "slightly" tougher.

Hearing Yakushiji Ryoko say this, Izumida Junichiro sighed inwardly, but he could only nod: "Yes, counselor."

"Remember to put the gun into their hands. It's best if you control their hands and fire a few more shots to leave some smoke reaction. This will make the report easier to write."

Ryoko Yakushiji continued to teach Junichiro Izumida how to do things.

"……yes."

Junichiro Izumida felt that something would happen to him sooner or later if he continued like this, but he had already boarded the Queen's pirate ship... ah no, it was a dragon boat. It was already impossible for him to leave.

Just when Yakushiji Ryoko was teaching Izumida Junichiro how to set up the scene, two gunshots rang out in the room. None of the three people showed nervous and fearful expressions, but instead felt happy.

"Very good, it saves us having to arrange the scene."

Yakushiji Ryoko smiled.

"yes……"

Junichiro Izumida was even more relieved. It would be better if he did less things that violated police regulations. He was originally a very honest and responsible person, but he didn't know how he got to where he is today...

In the room, a woman wearing black clothes held a pistol in both hands.

Smoke rose from the muzzle of the gun, and the woman in black's hand holding the gun couldn't help but tremble.

The trembling was not because she was panicking because she had killed someone, but because...

Looking at the two bullets falling on the ground, the woman in black couldn't help shouting: "What kind of monster are you!"

Just now, she fired two shots at Esdeath who suddenly broke in and killed one person. As a result, the two shots did not miss Esdeath, but after hitting Esdeath, they seemed to be hit by a layer of

The invisible armor blocked it. Not only was it unable to hurt Esdeath, it even slipped off her chest without leaving any traces on her clothes.

Dusting his chest, Esdeath smiled and said: "I remember that a pistol of your type has six bullets? There are four bullets left, so why not shoot them together!"

"Ahhhhh!"

The woman in black, who had never encountered such a situation before, fell into madness. She pulled the trigger frantically, and four bullets sprayed out from the muzzle of the gun. Although she was using a small pistol and holding the gun with both hands, the recoil also made her use both hands.

numb.

After entering the door, he didn't ask any questions and just drew his sword to kill. Although this woman was wearing a police uniform, it was obvious that she was here to kill people. There was no way for her to surrender even if she wanted to.

The woman in black didn't know if these four bullets could kill Esdeath, or even not hurt Esdeath, but it was already the most powerful weapon at her hand, and she could only rely on this pistol to die.

beat.

Four bullets were fired at Esdeath, and Esdeath had a smile on his face.

Swordsman-level masters already have the ability to react faster than bullets. Although the speed is not as fast as bullets, it is very easy to dodge bullets fired in a straight line. Even swordsmen can predict in advance by observing the direction of the muzzle after training.

Judging the trajectory of the bullet to avoid the bullet, let alone the great swordsman, the pistol is just like a toy to the great swordsman, and it is still a toy with little lethality.

Facing the four flying bullets, Esdeath still did not dodge, but this time she did not intend to use her body to catch them.

She has tried this before, and it turns out that bullets of this level cannot break through her body-protecting energy. Now she wants to try something else.

The speed of the bullet suddenly slowed down when it was one meter closer to Esdeath. The front of Esdeath became hazy, as if it was covered with a layer of fog. After the bullet penetrated the fog, it was immediately entangled with countless silk fibers.

, the speed became slower and slower, and the force became weaker and weaker. It only penetrated half a meter into the inexplicable layer of fog, and all the power of the four bullets was consumed, and they fell to the ground with a "patter".

"Monster! Monster! There is a monster!"

The woman in black screamed, she wanted to run, no matter whether she could escape or not, her biological instinct drove her to escape quickly, but she found that she had lost control of her body at some point.

His body seemed to be stuck on a huge and strong spider web, and his hands and feet were not at all in control. How could he escape?

"Thank you for giving me the opportunity to test my new abilities. In return, I will make your death not so bloody!"

Walking up to the woman in black who couldn't move, Esdeath showed a cruel smile and put her hand on the woman in black's head.

Strong cold air gushed out from Esdeath's palm. In an instant, the woman in black was covered with a thick layer of frost. When Esdeath took her hand back, the woman in black had turned into a lifelike tower.

An ice sculpture, the expression covered in fear was frozen forever on her face.

Without taking a second look at his masterpiece, Esdeath kicked the ice sculpture, shattering its upper body.

There was no flesh and blood flying, only countless ice shards flying, Esdeath kept her word!

"Very good, it seems like the whole person is indeed frozen."

Esdeath nodded with satisfaction.

And when Esdeath was satisfied with his ambition, a faint voice sounded from behind Esdeath.

"Is this what Teacher Esdeath has achieved these days? It is indeed very impressive. However, it seems that Teacher Esdeath, you have not practiced the "Celestial Silkworm Magic"!"
