Chapter 434 (1/2)
<hr><hr>
The numbers on the clock represented different abilities. The fourth bullet, for example, can turn back time on her body, healing her no matter how much damage she takes as long as she's still alive. It wouldn't work if the time represented by the golden clock in her left eye is 0.
If she fired it at herself, there is no stopping this restoration of her body.
Like the fourth bullet, the first bullet can be used on herself as well. It can speed her up so much that it's hard to match her in speed.
This allowed her to get close to Wu Yan without him being able to react.
She placed her head on her shoulders. Gazing at Wu Yan's face, she licked her lips. She also didn't forget to caress his face while grinning.
”You smell so nice…”
She grinned from ear to ear. She stared into his golden eyes.
”Say, Onii-san, you mind telling me why your pretty red eyes turned golden?”
Her sweet scent wafted into his nasal cavity. Wu Yan would like nothing more than to stay like this if this scenario was normal. However, he didn't have the time for that right now…
He breathed in deeply before grumbling. He tilted his head to give her a sideways glance.
”Is that really okay? To touch me like that…”
Tokisaki Kurumi backed away when he discharged his lightning at her. The electric shock was enough to paralyze the hand that was touching his face.
”Ara…”
She shook her slightly charred hand and she commented on his ability.
”You're not a spirit but you seem to have some sort of command over electricity. If I am not wrong the flame pillar from before was your work wasn't it? With powers like this and that infinite time of yours, I wonder just what are you? You have really piqued my interest…”
”Time…”
Wu Yan connected the dots and he recalled that Tokisaki Kurumi is too h.e.l.l-bent on acquiring him, that and her words finally clicked.
Tokisaki Kurumi wants his immortality, or rather, his infinite time.
”Well, I couldn't care how this ends since you will be mine one way or the other. I am so hyped right now!”
Tokisaki Kurumi pointed the musket at Wu Yan's forehead and she pulled the trigger without any hesitation. Drops of blood fell to the ground.
”Hmm?”
Tokisaki Kurumi examined her work.
”To dodge at such distance…”
She turned around and saw Wu Yan who is panting slightly.
”d.a.m.n.”
He wiped away the blood on his head. Gnas.h.i.+ng his teeth at her, he continued.
”What a troublesome power, to manipulate time, even a simple acceleration is enough to draw blood from me. I imagine if she used her other abilities, I would be in grave danger. I wonder just how Kotori beat this freak in the original work.”
”That won't do, Nii-san…”
Tokisaki Kurumi started approaching him while her eyes s.h.i.+ned bright like those of a demon.
