Death

We walked around this city, the tall buildings always shining with metallic sheen under the fresh air. But it's not metal, it's concrete walls coated with a coating of microscopic solar panels. It is the source of electricity in this lavish area, it can be understood as a network to collect energy from the whole city.

We went to the main road to get to the grilled meat skewers Kevin said, it's on a high-rise building and it looks luxurious.

Seimei: Hey buddy, do you have enough money? I only have twenty a few sacs each.

Kevin: It's okay I have enough, plus we have discounts in these cities so we can afford to pay for the most lavish services under those 100,000 sacs.

Seimei: Wow, that's horrible.

Kevin: That's how you like to do it yourself.

Seimei: Nah I still prefer to go alone, it's too complicated for a lot of people.

Kevin: Then you'll never be rich.

Seimei: Okay okay.

We keep going into that house, everyone in here has clothes that look weird, it's kind of identical. It made us kind of get lost in the middle of this city, the price of affluence is that full industrialization will also lead to people losing their individuality. The members of the New Government are the same, they are used by the New Government to increase their strength, but are also forced to use drugs to erase their minds and give them a new name. We used the stairs to go up the highway and took a taxi to get to the perimeter of the city walls. We showed the ID they gave us when we left the mall.

After fifteen minutes by car, we reached that place, it was not too different from the "markets". With that same level of decay under a flash of paint, it feels a bit familiar to me. The shop he said was a cart with a brazier on it, on which they put the meat skewers directly on the fire, not into kitchens that used the quick oxidizing effect that glowed and gave off heat.

The smell of shiitake is fragrant. I understand they may be using harmful chemicals but compared to the atmosphere outside, it's good. We bought 2 packages of grilled meat skewers, each pack has 10 pieces but only 12 sacs each. Damn, maybe I'm addicted to this place. I'm like I'm devouring that barbecue, well it's been almost two days since my last meal, isn't it? But hearing Kevin say they're saying there's a cloud of acid going down the path I'm going to take, so maybe it's God's will to stay here. So I guess it's okay to stay here for another week?

Kevin: Hey man, what is eating a lot?

Seimei: Shut up, I've been starving for 2 days.

Kevin: Well, everyone is like that?

Seimei: If you've been strengthened by the New Government, is there something good about you that's better at fasting than me?

Kevin: That's because of you, not anyone?

...

In the central tower, there was a small figure clad in a white robe slithering through the corridors of that tower. The man had passed a guard, but he turned abruptly.

??: Who are you-

?: Fuck but go to sleep, baby.

Before he could finish his sentence, she put a knife in his throat and cut his larynx so he couldn't even let out a cry of pain. The man took out a glass jar with a viscous liquid-like oil, which she described pouring over the man's body after applying a thin layer of glass cloth down. His corpse slowly decomposed violently, from a corpse now only a pile of black, clumps like coal. She wrapped them in a small bag and threw them in a nearby trash can. She changed into a typical business suit, letting her white hair down. She uses a set of contact lenses to turn her pupils from blood red to blue. She continued to find a room and killed the girl whose body shape and eye color were exactly the way she had just disguised. with a single slash to the neck. She pulled out her documents and took a picture with a camera device that fits in the palm of her hand.

At that moment there was a knock on the door.

"Hey, Miss Ema! Are you ready? It's almost time for the meeting!"

"Yeah, I'll be right out."- Her voice came back from a microphone hidden in the bushes in the corner of the room that she took out.

"Yes sir, please prepare quickly, there are only five minutes left!"

"Okay then."-Meanwhile she put the camera in her pocket and took the file away and left under the table a vial containing an orange crystal from somewhere very familiar.

She opened the door, waiting for her was a girl standing impatiently, she nodded lightly and headed towards a room at the end of the corridor. On that side was a group of well-dressed people sitting there.

Robert: Hi, Miss Emma! How are you today?

She didn't respond, but smiled and nodded to show that she had some health problem without saying anything. After a few minutes, the chairs were all occupied, and Robert also stood up and spoke.

"Come on everyone, today we're going to talk about that important issue. It's about the attack on the ER1-5B 'market'. And about officer Kevin C. Belfort and Comrade Seleva O. Selekhoft. there's also an unknown character named Seimei. And a special thing is..."

He was silent for a moment and...

"What are you going to say?"

"Ah... Hey Miss Ema, have you been eavesdropping enough?"

"Looks like you're smarter than I thought."

"Haha... that's commendable, I guess you're the white god of death, aren't you?"

"Why don't you say that?" "Who else could break in and disguise with this level of sophistication but her."

Everyone in the room started to disperse, the security guards in the corner of the room were about to take action. Just for a moment, she stood teaching to shoot at the throats of those guys.

"You like to attack the throat, don't you?"

"Ah, just because it's convenient, you already reported the emergency, right?"

"Haha.. you said- Huh what?"

He was talking when there was a loud explosion right next to him.

"That position has been calculated so that everything will stop the reinforcements so you have 5 minutes to die."

"What about us?" asked a trembling man.

"Just die with him? What a stupid question."

Another dead body.

"So the target is me, huh?"

"Ugh, now bye-bye! The whole house has been remodeled to put 15 more pounds of plastic explosives on the floor. That's more than enough space to leave you with a pile of dust at this distance. Now then bye." She gently stood up ignoring the other people who were terrified of her.

"May I ask, Mr. Robert?" "Yes please, we only have 3 minutes left anyway, right?"

"Why did you betray us?"

"Sorry I can't remember that moment but anyway if it was me it would be for my wife."

"Understood..."

She fired a bullet into the corner of the tempered glass causing it to shatter. She jumped down and used the parachute system she had pulled out earlier to go to the opposite building.

"What should we do, sir?"

"It's no use, she's already thinking about going all the way."

"But what about the ropes she just landed on."

"She doesn't know where to cut, does she?"

He took out from his body a picture of a girl and a small child beside him but younger. He looked at it for the last few moments and when he turned it over he saw the text.

"Ouroboros will not kill civilians.". He smiled and boomed. One that was left with only a puff of smoke.
