Chapter 262
Butcher Demon
When I turned to look, Yasmin was holding my arm.
âSuchâ¦â¦miracle.â
With a maniacal smile, she brings herself closer.
âOh! The God of Vengeance still didnât abandon me!!!â
A black web spread from her hand and crawls up my arm.
A doppelgangerâ¦â¦.
âThis, is this thingâ¦.
The same thing that Titania uses?
That thing that goes into the brain!!
âA Butcherâs body is supposedlyâ¦â¦.incompatible for a woman! But the vessel developed a body with abnormal hormones, it incubates a soul that is no longer male or female, a soul that maintains its amorphous formâ¦..no wayâ¦no way.â
Yasmin clings to my arm, mumbling.
âI never thought that the seeds I sowed will lead to a miracle like this!!â
âSo noisyâ
I tried to shake her off, but my arm refused to move.
Itâs being held back by an unbelievable force.
âNo, itâs not.
It isnât that Yasminâs grip is strong. My arm felt numb and weak.
âThe miracle that has returned back to me!!â
I wanted to use my other ability to pull Yasmin off, but Whisleyâs shot was working as a very effective block. Now I canât deactivate the .
The Checkmate was overturned in an instant.
Now itâs me who is being checkmated.
âYou!â
âIf your butcherâs body has been normalized, then even Iââ
Yasmin put her other hand on my face.
I felt a warm, moist sensation as something was seeping in through my cheeks.
The altered womanâs uncanny face filled my field of vision. The smell of sludge in my nose made me feel more and more nauseous as my face was brought closer to hers.
ââ-This body, I will take it!!â
â Are you that out of your mind that you want to be a butcher? Are you crazy?â
âHahaâ¦â¦ Ignorance is a sin, Gevaudan. You can sleep with that sin. At the very least, let me sing you a lullaby.â
ãLydia! Destroy Jasmineâs mind!!ã
ãNo, stay away, all of you! We donât have any countermeasure, everyone might get taken over!ã
ãDo you have a rubber suit, Arshella!?ã
ãThereâs no way I brought that kind of stuff here!?ã
ãWhat about Tyrielâs thorns?ã
ãItâs useless if youâre dealing with shapeless body like slimeã
Abigailâs shout blasted away the panicked voices of the four girls.
âCaptain, shoot Yasmin!!â
ââ¦â¦â¦â¦â
After a momentâs hesitation, Whisley shook his head.
ââWeâre soldiers. We canât shoot our superiors.â
Yasmin glanced at him and laughed.
ââThatâs right, Captain Whisley. That is the man who holds the powerful Fox team together. If you are able, kill those women over there. Theyâre the enemy. Now get to work, soldier.â
Yasmin brings me close to her face, almost kissing me.
ââAnd get rid of that traitor woman Abigail, we donât need her anymoreâ¦â¦. We donât need Translinger either! I no longer need the help of subhumans! As long as I can control this , I can do it!â
âCaptain, Yasmin is a wicked alien, she is responsible for the almost annihilation of the alien world, and now she wants to drag the earth into it!â
âYou have no proof, Abigail. Surely she has passed a DNA test.â
âThatâsâ¦â¦â Abigail mumbledâ¦â¦.
âThis Butcher is just a Cradle.â Yasmin said.
âIf this Flesh with the power of the planet and my brains combined, even the Faceless Papameyan is not a threat to me. I will avenge my brotherâs death and eventually, will become a blade that reaches Narus. â- Hand it to me, Butcher!!â
*Squish* Yasminâs head melted.
Her head became an inky tar and clung to my face.
I managed to grab hold of Yasminâs body and clawed at it, trying to pull it away, but I felt no feedback as if I were grabbing a slimy thing. I knew it, it was really a slime.
ââKuh, whyâ¦â¦donât get inâ¦â¦ myâ¦â¦ way!!â
I heard Yasminâs puzzled voice.
Overlapping it was Abigailâs urgent pleading.
âShoot it!! Pleaseâ-Whisley!!â
Suddenly, a ferocious blast ripped into the back of Yasminâs head.
Another shot followed. The precise shot ripped off Yasminâs body that struck to me.
ââ-â
Yasminâs shapeless body twitched.
The eyeballs that were lodged in there gawked and looked at Whisley.
ââ¦â¦ Captain, How are you going to explain this?â
âWe, the Fox Team, exist to protect humanity.â
Whisley said clearly.
âA group of professionals that will fight the hunt for aliens off this planet. As its captain, only humans can order me. Not alien.â
âIââ
âNo such human can do that. You monster.â
Whisleyâs bullet catches Yasmin again, who continues to speak as she melts into mush.
ââOooooooooooâ¦â¦â
Yasmin slid off me powerlessly.
She tries to return to her female form on the floor, but it doesnât work, and she stands up in a nearly crumbling form.
ââ¦â¦M-my formâ¦â¦!â
Yasmin pointed at me with trembling fingers.
ââHurry and get up, Garnier!!â
A gunshot came from the other side.
Shortly after, Whisley tumbled to the ground, his upper body shaking.
âGuh!â
He quickly got up, but he was bleeding beneath the hand that held his shoulder.
âWhisley!! â- kuh!â
InoRyder held up her assault rifle, but she was also shot and rolled on the floor.
I slowly turned my head.
Just then, I saw Garnier, holding the revolver, shoving the debris away, and standing up.
