Chapter 428: Paraphrasing

Why?

Perhaps that was the only question that should be persisting in the air right now Riley had always been ada any of the Baby Crehatever

Any of Hannah's friends were off limits— that hy he did not mess with Silvie in the first place and just let her be, even after fully knowing that she was Megawoman's clone

So why?

Why Gary?

"What are you trying to say!?"

Even with Riley holding his neck, Gary's le in the air His feet, kicking Riley's torso but failing to really do anything

"It is as I said, you can't fly I have beenyou all this time," Riley only tilted his head as he slowly pulled Gary closer to him, "I wanted to let out experience it before you die, Gary"

"W… what?"

"The moment you entered the shelter, Gary I have been closelyit seeer"

"" And as Riley's words reached his ears, his feet that had been struggling without end very slowly stopped ht in the eyes

"Since you didn't notice Little Riley hiding in your pocket, it stands to reason you didn't even notice he was controlling you," Riley then let out a sigh as he finally let go of Gary

"!!!" Gary tried to stretch his hands up, hoping that he would be able to stay in the air; he closed his fists, wanting to grab at least a seht back to the ground

"" Riley looked down on Gary for a few seconds, before once again letting out a sigh and descending to the ground Just standing beside Gary, before also suddenly lying on the ground

"The reason you think you have beco you, Gary The reason why you were able to break free fro," Riley then said,

"The Baby Creas really convinced that you also powered up I think all of us can agree that this was very entertaining, no? You certainly had fun as well"

"F… fuck," Gary stuttered as he covered his eyes, "That… that's so fucked up, man"

"I suppose," Riley breathed out and closed his eyes, "I have been becoe"

"Why… why didn't you just kill me, man?"

"Because I wanted Aerith to be the one to kill you I thought it was the proper way to finally have closure with the Darkday and Megawoa But as I said, Aerith would just find a way not to kill you I was planning on suddenly re the telekinetic shi+eld once she strikes, and I did— but Aerith al soft Ha…

…Aerith, the things she is capable of are truly… otherworldly Get it? Because she's from—"

"Why would you kill Chihiro?"

"That is where you are h as he turned his head to Gary, "You are the one who killed Chihiro The only thing I did was place her between us You also killed the little girl right there"

""

"But that is it," Riley then said as he sat up, "The other deaths, I take credit for I tripped you on the freeway, those deaths are on me This destruction, I also take credit for— you wouldn't nor like this"

"Just stop talking, man," Gary closed his eyes as he took in a very deep breath, "Just kill et to the speech that power quickly corrupted me"

"It didn't corrupt you," Riley shook his head, "You were on the Potential Villain list, Gary You have always been capable of evil, you were just too weak to co to killto have to kill myself"

""

"This is where you are wrong, Riley I don't want to become evil— and before I truly do, I will stop myself as my last act as a hero"

"I wish I had that choice, Gary," Riley nodded, "Go ahead,to kill yourself"

"Man… you're one cold motherfucker," Gary then said as he placed his hand on his neck, before gripping it in a way that the end of his fingers dug through his throat, "fuck you, man"

And with those words, Gary closed his eyes— perhaps for the final time

"!!!"

But before he could fully tear his own throat, Aerith suddenly appeared in front of hi him out almost instantly

""

""

Aerith then very gently lifted and carried hi her eyes towards Riley

"" Riley quickly returned her stares as the two of them just looked at each other in silence But after a fewand deep breath as she fleithout saying a single word

"" And so, Riley was left sitting alone on the ground; with the destruction he hi hi up and whispering to himself,

"I'm bored"

And with those words, a ripple suddenly started to form beneath Riley's feet Since he had already started destroying this city by using Gary, he , Riley!?"

Hannah, atching from afar, decided to fly towards Riley as soon as he was alone; Silvie and the others, also standing close by behind her
