Chapter 330. Combat Open!

Why is Chief Tanizawa and miss Cordelia talking in Japanese?

Seki-san whispers.

Maybe they dont want the American subordinates to know what theyre talking about?

I answered.

I seethen, I think that theyre talking with too much information

Margo-san said

What do you mean?

Theyre purposely explaining so we would understand!

We?

Why?

I dont know what chief Tanizawas aim is. But, I can imagine miss Cordelias!

Miss Cordelia laughs at what Margo-san.

She intends to murder us all

Thats..

Thats right. You people will be dying here. Isnt it pitiful if you die without knowing anything? I thought of trying to tell you the situation before you die. Ufufuarent I kind? Your questions are welcome. Ill answer everything if its now!

Miss Cordelias smile shakes us

Then, Ill take your offerwas it thecouncilsplan to kill us or your own idea?

Margo-san asks.

Its my ideaor rather, personal grudge. Its a personal emotion. Thecouncilis unrelated at all!

Miss Cordelias personal grudge?

A prostitution ring like yours having relationship with a talented person like Kyouko is a loss of the underground. Thats why Ill crush you all. I will murder you all andKyouko will return to her meaningful life!

After saying, miss Cordelia smiled.

No, I might have to kill Kyouko in this occasion. If I kill her without others knowing that shes doing something so trivial like protecting a prostituteher dignity wont be lost

Miss Cordelia seems to be Kyouko Dothnomechey-sans partner before.

She knows Kyouko-sans talent more than anyone.

She cant forgive her becoming the guard ofKuromori

ThereforeI decided to kill you all on this occasion. Though the deal was to get rid of Lorenzaccio Bandini, whats more important to me is to kill you. Ill beat you up, and kill you painfully. I had Mr. Tanizawa help me out for that

Chief Tanizawa puts his hand in front of miss Cordelia.

Hes sayingshut up

Youre talking too much from the excitement

Miss Cordelia

It seems soWhen I talk Japanese, I remember when I was with Kyouko, thats why I feel exalted!

Margo-san talks to Chief Tanizawa

Tanizawa-sanyou dont intend to answer our questions?

Chief Tanizawa smiles

I have the ideology ofPeople who dont know anything dies happily

Chief Tanizawa intends to ignore us?

I want to ask a question

I said

Go on. I dont know if I would answer it or not

Chief Tanizawa speaks up as he look at my eyes

Are miss Cordelias targets all the staff ofKuromori?

Thats rightfrom what Ive heard, she intends to kill you all

Then that meansMinaho-neesan, Margo-san, Nei-san, and me?

Takanashi Katsuko too

Chief Tanizawa answered.

I purposely omitted Katsuko-nees name

Its exposed that Katsuko-nees a core member ofKuromori

Katsuko-nees just a prostitute. Miss Cordelia wont go kill a poor woman exploited by a prostitution organization, would you?

If thats how miss Cordelia thinks then Im sure

I think that shell become sympathetic of a woman who has been tricked

RightThen Ill exclude Takanashi Katsuko and Katagai Nagisa

OkayI got miss Cordelias words.

Promise also to not get the ladies of Kouzuki family and their friends involved with this. Those girls were just involved with ustheyre unrelated toKuromori

Im going to make a bet.

Thats a request from me tooIf the Kouzuki ladies are gone, itll hinder my future work

Chief Tanizawa tells miss Cordelia.

Thats true. In the first place, those girls havent even met or talked to Kyouko-san!

Even I have never met a person named Kyouko Dothnomechey.

But, Ill bluff this one.

Miss Cordelia

Okay thenIll only kill four, Kuromori Minaho, Margo Starkweather, Najima Yasuko, and you. Actually, even if I just kill MinahoBlack Forestwould be destroyedbut

She laughs.

Just who the hell are you? You didnt come up in the preliminary reports I have asked. Youre not listed even in Mr. Tanizawas report

Thats obvious.

It hasnt been a week since I joinedKuromori

I never knew him at allhe must be a secret member ofKuromori

Chief Tanizawas befuddled.

Okaythats good.

If they didnt investigate me ahead of time

Then they dont know about Megu or Mana at all.

I can call them as Misuzus friends.

Trueit feels like hes an educator of the prostitutes from the sex show earlierhe must be a professional male prostitute. He must be doing it with rich old ladies however

Oh, Im glad that I did all my best doing a sex show at that place.

Miss Cordelia doesnt doubt that Im an official member of the prostitution organizationKuromori

Wellthats how it is

I answered.

Good

For the time beingthe girls underground wont be harmed.

Katsuko-nee, Nagisa, Misuzu, Megu, Mana, Ruriko, and Yoshiko-san will be fine.

Jii-chan said that they would definitely be safe until morning

Theres no security now that chief Tanizawas an enemy.

Even that basement may still have some other escape routes.

Whats left is

This ones just an apprentice prostitute of mine. She hasnt taken a customer yet. I just forcibly raped hermade her get used to sex

I explained about Yukino

Shes also a victim of us Shes not an allyspare her as well

You?

Yukinos surprised.

Whats your name?

Miss Cordelia asks Yukino

Right.

Yukinos on the hit list made by Shirasakas head.

Miss Cordelia would be receiving extra money from that.

Dont answer with your real name

Try to sayKishima Kurokofor now

Its Shirasaka Yukino!

Y-Youre an idiotYukino!!

Im Shirasaka YukinoShirasaka Sousukes daughter!

Miss Corderlia smiles

Ill kill you too, that would be 50k$its a bit cheap but theres no helping it. Your price is cheaper than your father

Yukino trembles.

Yukino, get behind me

I get in front of Yukino.

Myshes not an ally, is she? Why do you try to protect her?

Miss Cordelia speaks to me ironically

I just dont want her to die

Yukino holds my arms tightly from behind.

Its okay. Ill kill you and that girl together

Dammit

She really intends to kill.

Now then, for startershow about you all and Lorenzaccio Bandinis minions kill each other?

Suddenly, miss Cordelia looked at the men in black clothes.

Then she said something in English

Shes talking about thecouncilsdecision to kill Lorenzaccio Bandini and Cesario Viola

Nei-san whispers.

Thereforeits planned to kill all the subordinates along with the superiors but, those who are capable will be rehired by miss Cordelia and would be let to live

Thats just.

Shes saying that those who are confident in their skills raise their armstheyll fight us and see their strength. If they survived from the fight then shell help them out, she said

A few of the black suit men raised their hands quickly

Its 5 people from 13.

Its less than what I thought. Theyre not going to be loyal to Lorenzaccio Bandini this late, those who didnt raise their hands dont believe what miss Cordelia said at all

Margo-san said

What do you mean?

They know that miss Cordelia has no plans on re-employing them. Even if they survived, they think that theyll get killed anyway. Thereforetheyre looking for an opportunity to run away from this place

Is that how it is?

Rather, they have judged that its a chance when miss Cordelia is concentrating on the battle between us and the black combat clothes men.

What? Only five?Well fineits the same number as those people. Isnt this going to be a good match?

The same number as us?

Margo-san, Nei-san, me and Yukinoand?

That ninja girl is going to fight together with you, isnt she?

Miss Cordelia looks at Michi.

Obviously. I am Masters servant

I seeshe knows that Michi is also a combatant from the previous attack.

I will also fight.

Reika said.

My, I heard that you are mr. Tanizawas subordinate however?

Hmphthis ones a too single-minded! If she only thinks a bit more flexibly, you could live more comfortably, Fujimiya-kun!

Chief Tanizawa-san, Reika glares at him

Please dont talk to me familiarlyyoure already ourenemy

Us?! I see, youre already a member of Kuromori then

Miss Cordelia smiles.

I too will protect these children!

Seki-san

I dont want to lose my pride as a guard. I cant let these children be killed!

Theyre not children. Those people are dirtymaggots of a prostitution organization!

Miss Cordelia hatesKuromorito the depths of her heart

Nothese are children I will protect even with my life. Theyre children I want to embrace and foster

Hah! You got attached to these maggots by being with them?

Miss Cordelia mocks Seki-san

I dont care whatever you thinkI will protect this children as a guard!

Is that so?Then Ive got to change my thoughts too

Miss Cordelia says something in English again.

Loudly, hystericallyordering the men in black combat clothes.

What did she say?

Every man except Lorenzaccio Bandini and Cesario Viola would be fighting with us If not, theyre going to get killed right now, she said

Nei-san translates.

In short11 people.

We only have 7 people.

But, Nei-san, Yukino and I arent fighters.

Rather, were just hindrance.

You guys are professional executors arent you? You can easily kill girls right? If you cant even do that then Ill shoot you right now. Ill throw your corpses to the sea over there. ot even you memento would be coming back to your home. Sink in the sea of far east. Are you okay with that?

Miss Cordelia said all she has to say.

Dont let those guys use handguns

Chief Tanizawa tells miss Cordelia.

Ohwhy?

Im afraid of stray bulletsif those guys are indeed Lorenzaccio Bandinis main group then everyones got a decent career, dont they? They might pretend to fight and aim at us you see

Why dont you just avoid it?

Miss Cordelia laughs.

Shes confident that she can deal with it even if shes suddenly aimed at.

Since you and your kittens are young, you have the confidence to act quickly but, Im already at the age. Im no longer confident at avoiding being shot by bullets. Besides, Id be troubled if those bullets reach my men. Those guys will still have to work under me!

I see, at the same time the battle begins

Violas men would try to run away from this place by all means.

They, who are cornered would forcibly gun down in search for an exitthey might accidentally hit a person from theinformation departmentholding a machine gun.

Youre unexpectedly coward

Ive survived this long because Im timid

I get itIll do as your say considering your frankness

Miss Cordelia instructs the white Viola and Rosalind.

The two of them are smiling

They walk towards the men in black combat clothes and do a body check.

Well, if theyre going to kill each other then it would be more impressive with a fight. Guns can end it right awaybang, if youre shot, its a boring death

Their white and long fingerscheck the firearms the men hide, pull out the magazines and throw it away

One of the men refuses to be touched by the white Rosalind.

Then

Rosalind head butts the mans forehead with an amazing speed!

gah!

The man fainted!

Rosalind grins.

Miss Cordelia says something in English

Taking up our time Those who rebel wont be pardoned. If the number of people fighting decreases then you guys would be in trouble

Anywaythe enemys turned to 10.

Our firearms are only this. Ill let this boy have it. He doesnt have any combat training so you dont care about that much handicap?

Seki-san said and hand over the pistol to me.1

Rightthen Ill give you special permission

Miss Cordelia answers.

When youre shooting, itll attract the enemies. For now, you cant hit enemies three meters away. Shoot at a knife stabbing distance. But if you think its dangerous then dont hesitate and shoot. Okay?

The heavy metal is completely warmed with Seki-sans body temperature.

I hold the gun.

Okaygot it

Meanwhilethe confiscation of firearms from the men in black combat clothes has been completed.

Viola and Bandini got their guns taken away too.

Now thenwell then, lets begin. Kill each other!

Miss Cordelia laughs happily

I dont think its a very good hobby

Chief Tanizawa smiles bitterly.

Ohits Kuromori Minahos fault for not coming out soon enough!

Miss Cordelia looks up at the surveillance camera near the ceiling.

Hurry up and come, Kuromoris boss. If you dont hurry your precious subordinates will all die!

She doesnt know that we are afamily?

Lets fight with our backs to the wallReika-oneesan, you go vanguard. Ill take the right, Seki-san will be on the left. Take down the attacking enemy using counters. Michi-chan, please guard Nei and the two. Also

I know. Margo-oneesama

When it gets really dangerouswe can only depend on MichisShingetsu

ButShingetsuat full power

It can stop even the movement of allies.

We have experienced it when escaping from the theater

Im not good at close combat but it cant be helped

Seki-san takes out a hidden retractable baton.

They should be wearing body armor too. My hands would swell if I hit them with my fist

Truewe have to punch through vital points

Margo-san also has a metal club on both hands.

Its the one used when fighting at the back of the baseball ground.

It seems she hid it under her coat.

That doesnt matter to my cane. I can crush helmets or even body armor with one blow!

Reika holds her cane of death.

The 10 black combat clothes men pull out combat knives all at once

Heyare we going to be okay?

Yo-chan

Yukino and Nei-san cling to me.

Its finelets believe in ourfamily!

When its neededI have to protect these two with this pistol.

The man in black suit instructs the combatants.

Theyre not using words.

Just using their hands, pointing outYou go thereYou and you team up

And yetthe ten men quickly formed a battle formation

Thats Giuliano Jenka, right?

Margo-san mutters

It seems so. Theres nobody else that can lead the battle among the executives

Seki-san answers.

It seems both are readywell then, should we decide the timing of the combat open?

Miss Cordelia pulls a coin out of her pocket.

Nickel Coin? Its small and hard to see. You dont have any quarter?

Margo-san speaks silly

Five cents is enough for your worth isnt it? Ill throw this and at the moment it falls to the floor, the battle begins!

Miss Cordelias hand has a small silver coin shines dull

Right now, she said the same thing to the men in black combat clothes, in English

Then, lets go. ready!

Miss Cordelias finger flicks the silver coin!

The coin glittersspin around the air

Then, it begins to fall.

Before it drops on the floor

Shu!

Gueeeee!!!

The man in black combat clothes who seems to be Giuliano Jenka holds his throat and faints in agony!

Dosa!

Chiiiiin!

It was almost the same time the man and the coin lands on the ground

Could this be?

Seki-santhrew a knife?!

This is actually my specialty

Seki-san takes out the next throwing knife.

Theres no way you would say thats cowardly, would you?

Miss Cordelia

I heard that Kouzuki security service is a Japanese style well behaved surface company!

If I get caught in that way this late then lives would be at stake

Seki-san glares at the enemy.

Im no longer belonging to Kouzuki security service. With this, you and usare residents of theundergroundworld This is a conflict between criminal organizations. Rules are useless from now on!

Seki-sandid you become a member ofkuromori?

Hey! Boys!!!

Lorenzaccio Bandini speaks to the men from behind.

Now that Giuliano Jenka has fallen, I guess hell take the command from behind

You wont say that this is unfair, would you?

Following Bandinis instructions, the nine men formed a set of threes.

Their fighting spirit isnt gone yet.

Rathertheir morale is increased due to Bandinis coaching from outside.

Reika-oneesan, dont go ahead! Just aim to counter the enemy!

Margo-san shouts !

Roger!

Usually, Reika would go forward but, she stepped back

They got usas expected of genuine professionals. I dont think there would be any more surprises

Nei-san mutters.

Everyonewould be protecting their necks, faces and hands so it wont be easy to use projectiles. Theyre wearing body armor so the points of effectiveness of Seki-sans knife is limitedthey concentrated on the coin so their movements stopped completely.

One was taken down butits impossible to take another

Seki-sans knife can only be used when theyre distracted

If its a state-of-the-art armor adopted from the US army, my whip cant bring it down

Michi said.

I seeKudou-papa and others spent a lot of time mopping the Russians

Was it due to this defensive power?

Thinking about it, old man Dai Grepher and Banbarubie 3 Ladies are amazing.

In the first place, Maru-chans best strategy is to take down from a sneak attack you see. Since shes a womanshes weaker when men comes for a power push. Whether its muscular strength or weight, womens body cant compete with men!

Do you mean shell lose when she goes face to face with professionals?

The numbers even higher than ours

They intend to take down each one with three people

Reika, Margo-san, Seki-santhree people approach each.

This is bad.

If they attack in unison this way

Margo-san and the two can deal with the enemies in front but they cant follow up each other.

The enemys three man team seems to be highly trained.

Theyre cooperating perfectly

Go!

Bandini instructs in a loud voice!

The men jump at the same time!

Aaaah!

1. HAH!
