THE CURSED GAMER

160: Outsiders (2)

Chapter 160: Outsiders (2)



In an unknown building, All for One was sitting on a chair, his legs crossed as he looked at the grumbling girl in front of him, her arms tied behind her with her mouth taped as Kurogiri stood behind her.

"Master, this girl is suspicious. She was eavesdropping when I was talking to you via our special telephones, I only noticed her when she tried to attack me upon hearing that Neji had died in Hisashi’s  hands,” said Kurogiri, his voice not carrying any emotion like always. "What should we do with her?"

All for One turned his gaze at the girl, his expression indifferent at first before he smirked.

"What is Neji to you?" He asked the blonde-haired girl, wearing a schoolgirl outfit. "Kurogiri, remove the tape from her mouth."

Kurogiri did so as the girl yelled immediately.

"Fuck you!"

All for One, shocked for a moment, paused before he gave out a soft chuckle.

"Kurogiri, contact Hisashi. I think he will like this one.”

Hunting for quirks can wait. It's been a while since Neji ate, more than 30 hours precisely.

So Neji was waiting for Kimi to finish cooking food. His head was resting on Nejire's lap, while he lay on a couch, his eyes closed as he watched the system interface.

“But when will you take out our parents? Won’t they suffocate or die of hunger if they keep staying in your pocket dimension?” Nejire asked, not really worried, as she ran her hand through Neji’s hair, his head resting on her lap.

“Time flows differently in there, so no. Actually, time doesn’t flow there at all. They’re frozen in space and time. You really want them to come out and worry?” asked Neji with a shrug, making Nejire shake her head.

“It’s fine then, I guess. Still feels kinda weird without them around though, not that they’re around much anyway.”

“Same for me,” Momo said, sitting beside Nejire on the couch. “I hope all this ends soon so that I can see them again.”

Neji nodded at that.

“Don’t worry too much, I will take them out when we have a safe haven around this place. We first have to hunt some villains, show them the power gap and start a rumour around here so that the small fries avoid us. Some of the big villains will come out, but they will be handled easily.” Neji paused for a moment before sighing. 

“Though I have to first find Rumi and  Ryukyu, you know. I can’t contact any of them because of the blockage of the network. How did they pull this off anyway? Blocking a whole country’s network system, and even maintaining it for over 6 hours.”

That's when Kimi peeked out from the kitchen. "Huh, only Rumi and Ryukyu? What about that vampire girl? You don't remember her, even though this mansion is the place where you first did it?"

The girls turned to her, making her shrug. "Why do you look so shocked?"

"Uh… ahem, anyway forget about her." Neji shook his head, making the two girls sigh before they decided to ignore it. This wasn't the first time anyway. "I am not really that close to her, emotionally. I was just her employer and she was my employee."

Kimi raised an eyebrow. "So you're just gonna let her die wherever she's in right now? Wow, so cold-hearted."

"No. I will find her, she has yet to receive her payment for her last few pieces of information. I wouldn't have sent you to my parents if not for her, so she deserves… a big payment." Neji said, smiling.  "I will decide what to do with her after that payment."

Kimi nodded with a smile and went back to cooking. Soon the aroma filled the air and she presented the food on the table as her employers started to eat with drooling mouths.

At the same time, in a city far from Eusha, Hisashi was sitting on a throne-like chair. In front of him, a green-haired woman was bowing, her hand forcing down the head of a teenager to bow with her.

This woman was Ophelia Sarkissian, aka Madam Viper. She was his right-hand woman, and also the only underling he brought from America for now. Like any other big Super Villain, of course he had a villain team of his own, he just didn't bring all of them here because that'd have slowed down their movement in America, and also alerted Star and Stripes. Though Hisashi was sure the news was already out, at least he managed to kill that Neji brat already. But… he didn't feel so satisfied in his heart, which was exactly why he was going out of his way to hunt some kids.

Such as this one under Viper's hand.

"Bossss." The green-haired woman spoke in English, her 'S' sounding like a hiss. "This kid is Inasa Yoarashi. From what All for One let us know, this guy used to look up to that Neji boy, like a rival of some sort."

According to All for One, Izuku used to make a report of the students to him. Not only Izuku, but the other spy kid (in class 1-A) also did the same, so AFO had a good idea of who Neji was close to and who he wasn't.

Neji was mostly close to his female classmates, Hisashi could understand why since that kid was admittedly quite handsome, though that didn't mean his relationship with the boys in the classroom was bad. They just simply weren't so close. Unfortunately, in the few hours since the fight had ended, this Inasa kid was the first to be captured amongst all the other students.

Madam Viper had a quirk that let her coat anything she touches with a coat of poison. She mostly uses that power to coat bullets with different types of poisons and fires them at her targets. That's how she caught Inasa, who was huffing with an exhausted face, sweating heavily.

"Good work," Hisashi said, standing up. "Let's see if I really feel satisfied killing these kids."

Hisashi was curious to find, as he opened his mouth wide, making Viper quickly move to the side.

Inasa's face twisted in horror. "W-wait, what are you doing?! This is negotiable! Stop it! Let's talk this through, no good comes out from my death-"

Hisashi fired a dragon's breath at the frightened Inasa's head and the beam elongated like a long pillar, driving through Inasa's head and taking out his skull in a matter of milliseconds.

"..."

-Thud!

As Hisashi closed his mouth, a soft shadow of a smile was on his face. "This does feel better, yes. Haah, I really wanted to give that brat a slow death. But whatever, I will manage with his friends."

He chuckled softly, while Viper stood on the side with a deadpan expression before her earpiece twitched and she bowed again. "Boss, we got someone new… It's not a classmate, but it's a girl. All for One is the one who found her, saying she's a spy in the League of Villains."

Hisashi frowned but nodded. "Tell him to send her here."

Viper relayed his message immediately as a purple portal opened in the middle of the room, opening as a blonde girl wearing a school uniform was pushed ahead. Her hands were tied behind her, but before the portal could close, Kurogiri ripped the rope off and pushed her ahead.

"Are you that dragon?" The girl asked, gritting her teeth as she gawked at his face. Moving swiftly, she slipped out a knife from under her socks, raising it in front of her. "Did you really kill Neji? Did you? Tell me, did you?!"

Hisashi's bored expression changed slowly as he smiled at the girl. "I did. Why? Was he someone important to you?"

The girl rushed at him immediately, making Hisashi gesture to Viper to stop, who had already taken out her gun.

"Die! Die! Die!" The girl's expression twisted, her eyes unfocused, as she ran at Hisashi, yelling and swinging her knife like a maniac. "How dare you! Y-you were not supposed to kill him!!!"

Himiko Toga swung her knife at Hisashi's neck, but as the knife connected, it snapped in two without even scratching Hisashi.

"Heh." Hisashi's smile widened as he grabbed Toga's throat tightly, raising her in the air. "Looks like I found his lover. I thought it was a girl named Momo? But whatever it may be, I am going to have fun breaking you. This won't just send in a second. I am going to do what I planned to do with Neji."

"Really?" Toga, who at first seemed frightened at the strength around her neck, asked with a smirk. "You wanna try me, you paedophile?"

"Oh no, of course not." Hisashi narrowed his eyes. "I am not interested in children. But after what I am going to do with you, you wish I were."

He said, throwing her to the floor as she coughed and gasped for air, while he turned to Viper. "Contact All for One again. I need a portal back to America, we have to take out some of our torture devices."

Viper nodded at his words and conveyed them to her earpiece, while Toga grumbled on the floor.

'I will kill this fucker… I will kill kill kill kill- He should die, he will die, he must die.'

She didn't care for the incoming torture. Not at all, because unfortunately for Hisashi, torturing wasn't going to take him anywhere with Himiko Toga.

But still, as she recalled the strength of Hisashi's grip, she realised that Neji might have actually died. She couldn't help it, even as she tried, as tears started to trail down her cheeks while she still thought about how to kill this bastard.

'...I will avenge him.'
