42 – Scene 042# Opportunity

*

“count… .”

Maybe God was listening to her.

Bella felt that Tristan suddenly appeared before her eyes like a miracle from God.

But it could not have been a grumpy god.

It was impossible for Tristan to reverse the situation alone without an escort.

The first to react was the hoodlum closest to Tristan.

“what? superficiality? This crazy piglet… .”

The big bully drew his dagger.

A dagger emitting a shimmering light threatened Tristan.

No, I was trying to intimidate.

Swoop-.

“…uh?”

With a strange sound, the man’s hand held a stick that had been a dagger until recently.

It happened in an instant.

But Bella saw clearly.

The moment he held out his dagger, Tristan’s hand cut through the air with unbelievable speed.

“eww… aaagh!”

The scarred bully in front of Bella suddenly grabbed his leg and screamed.

The blade of the dagger Tristan had broken was lodged in his thigh.

“This, you f*cking pig!! On my leg!”

“I will give you a chance.”

A cold voice interrupted the man’s words in agony.

“Should I immediately surrender to the Security Bureau and be tried and executed for kidnapping, smuggling, and attempted murder of an aristocrat? or not… .”

“It’s crazy and crazy!”

“count! behind you!”

When Bella shouted, the thugs behind Tristan had already charged.

Tristan was unable to respond to the surprise.

I just turned around as if to look back.

Kwajik-!

There was a sound like something breaking.

Tristan’s elbow had slashed the thug’s back.

“Huh!?!?”

Possibly a broken back, the man tumbled on the floor with a strange movement.

Bella’s eyes widened as she witnessed the scene.

I saw it myself, but I couldn’t believe it at all.

‘The Count… Was it this strong?’

Even Tristan was unarmed and bare-handed.

It must be only possible for Blanche, who has been training for a long time, to be able to use this level of taijutsu… .

How long has he been hiding this skill?

said Tristan, who incapacitated the two in an instant.

“… Would you die to me right here? Choose.”

“Damn it! That bastard is alone!”

“f*ck! Run together!”

The thugs, each holding a weapon, charged at Tristan at the same time.

The situation was unfavorable.

There seemed to be no way to avoid them in this not wide space.

But Tristan just clicked his tongue.

“Not even a chance. Dirty and vulgar things… .”

“?!”

At that moment, Bella had to wince.

Because I felt unusual energy from Tristan.

It was as if his gaze, his emotions, seemed to threaten her.

“What, what is this?!”

“Ooh, move… Can’t you?!”

Bella wasn’t the only one who felt it, but the men who rushed at her also froze on the spot.

Tristan just looks at them with cold eyes.

However, the fear that came from that gaze overwhelmed them.

It was then.

Tristan moved his body.

His fist shattered the defenseless bully’s jaw.

Another thug who tried to swing his fist belatedly collapsed with a terrible sound of arm bones breaking.

And when the last bully looked up, Tristan was leaping.

A sharp kick, unsuitable for his size, lodged in the bully’s chest.

The man with a broken rib collapsed, clutching his chest.

It was only a moment of about ten seconds.

Tristan was the only one standing on his own two feet when the men’s screams and the eerie sound of breaking bones stopped.

“… … Are you okay? Bella.”

“Yes… But Count… you substitute-. What?!”

It was a scarred bully who attacked Bella from behind.

“Hey, you piglet! If you take one more step, I know I’ll slash this b*tch’s face! hem?!”

He brought a knife to Bella’s face and threatened her.

The situation was reversed again and again when the cornered man took Bella hostage.

“Tsk.”

Tristan clenched his tongue and pulled something shiny silver from his bosom.

A piece of metal the size of the palm of your hand.

The scarred hoodlum recognized it for what it was.

“Ha, is it a gun? Seeing that he carries those expensive imported goods, it seems that nobles are nobles.”

But the bully was triumphant.

“But I am also a body that lives on smuggling. I know a little bit about that stuff.”

He sneered, as if he had overpowered Tristan for the first time.

“From the looks of it, it looks like a revolver made by Palick. It’s expensive and its power is comparable to that of magic. But… The hit rate is the worst of the worst.”

“… … .”

“Do you really think that gun will hit at that distance? No, do you have the confidence not to make a hole in this b*tch by hitting it wrong? hem?”

At that moment, Bella met Tristan’s eyes.

He was looking at her with a melancholy face.

It was a longing look.

A long time ago, when Tristan was a prince on a white horse to Bella.

It’s cynical, but if you keep looking at it, you feel relieved somewhere… It was the eyes at that time.

“I definitely gave you a chance.”

“f*ck! opportunity? What kind of opportunity gave you a chance to die!”

“Then do worms like you ever want a chance to live?”

“This bastard… .”

The man’s face contorted with insult.

Tristan pointed his gun at that ugly face.

The gun, shining silver, was pointed at Bella and the man.

“under! yes! shoot! Let’s shoot! You son of a b*tch! Let’s see who dies. ok!”

“count… .”

In that brief moment, Bella read it.

The conviction of Tristan’s face.

She didn’t understand how inaccurate his weapons were.

But Tristan knew he was going to kill this man.

Because there was a certainty on his face that he could really do that.

‘That’s right… Don’t.’

Ironically, Bella was hoping.

I hope this vulgar man holding a knife at himself doesn’t die.

I hope Tristan doesn’t get his hands dirty killing such a mean man.

‘For me… You don’t have to.’

I hope he doesn’t have blood on his hands for her sake.

Tristan’s hand gripped the gun.

In an instant, Bella’s senses, heightened by the danger of her life, felt a ray of power rising from his hand.

Taang-!

A single gunshot echoed through the room.

Immediately after that, a terrible scream rang out.

“aaah!!”

The bully groaned and collapsed.

He screamed, grabbing hold of the leg where the dagger was stuck.

Tristan’s bullet struck the blade of the dagger and lodged itself in the man’s leg.

“Daily, legs!!”

The man cried out in pain as if his legs were being torn apart.

“Right. As you said, the accuracy rate is not good.”

Tristan walked slowly.

Then he pointed a gun at the man who fell down and struggled and said.

“At this distance, you won’t miss it. I won’t blow your head this time.”

“Wait a minute?! stop!”

Gunshots rang out.

“… … Whoaaa!”

Blood gushed from the man’s healthy opposite leg.

“Did I miss again?”

Tilting his head, Tristan trampled the man’s bloodied leg.

“aaagh!”

“indeed… I guess it’s because you’re moving.”

“That, stop it!”

“If you do this, you won’t miss.”

gunfire again.

Blood gushed from the man’s leg.

“… … !”

“You missed again.”

“My… please!”

“I won’t miss it this time.”

“Stop it baby!!!”

gunfire again.

Now I could see it with Bella’s eyes.

Tristan is deliberately mistaking it.

She had never seen him so angry.

gunfire again.

The cruelty made Bella want to turn her head away.

Then, I suddenly realized the existence hanging from her body.

“… … Alice!”

When she woke up, Alice was hugging Bella tightly.

He was trembling and burrowing into Bella’s arms.

yes. It was a very cruel scene for her as a child.

cried Bella.

“count! Stop now!”

A riot rang out.

She didn’t know that it was a sign that she had run out of bullets.

The man was already foaming at the mouth and passed out from the terrible pain.

Tristan looked back at her slowly.

Cold eyes were looking down at her.

Bella wanted to argue with those eyes.

No, I had to ask.

“Count why… Did you hide it?”

“What do you mean?”

“… Are you thinking of making fun of it?”

Bella put the question into her mouth with a trembling voice.

“you… Are you able to use magic now?”
