Realizer of Death : The Reaper

Chapter 43 43



​ Setsuka and Kaede didn't take long to get to the scene because it wasn't far from Tenku's apartment area. When the two girls appeared, they were greeted by the Realizers who had gathered there.

"Can we see the corpse?" Setsuka asked one of the male Realizer in the place. That person turned his head when he heard someone ask him, and he was amazed when he saw Setsuka's face. But then the male Realizer shook his head, knowing who he was talking to. That girl was Snow Miko from The Fuyushima Temple.

"Of course, Miss Fuyushima. The corpse is over there, and we've finished examining it." The male Realizer answered politely and pointed in a direction not far from the place.

"Thank you." Setsuka nodded and went along with Kaede to look at the corpse.

After Setsuka and Kaede arrived at the place, their faces darkened upon seeing the corpse's condition. His left hand was severed, and his heart was outside his body in a ruptured state.

Even though the two were girls, they were Realizers who had fought monsters and had seen all kinds of gruesome corpse conditions, whether monsters or humans. But both of them frowned because they felt something was wrong with the corpse.

"Setsuka, did you notice?" Kaede whispered.

"Yes, I realized it. The black-robed person's hand should have been severed from being torn off using brute force, and the hole in his chest should have been pierced by a hand. He should have been attacked from behind, and his heart looked like it had been squeezed until it burst. This should not be done by goblins but by ruthless humans." Setsuka explained his analysis after seeing the condition of the black-robed person's corpse.

"You are right. Goblins wouldn't have the intelligence and strength to do that." Kaede nodded in agreement with Setsuka's words.

"Have we found this person's identity yet?" Setsuka asked Kaede.

"Not many. We only know that this person is an illegal Realizer. His name and where he lives are unknown. But upon further investigation, we suspect that this person is a member of a terrorist organization that has recently caused a lot of chaos in Japan." Kaede explained while looking at the report on her dimension watch.

"A member of a terrorist organization? How could they conclude that? Does the Holy Union have any clues about it?" Setsuka frowned upon hearing that. She felt that the current situation was far more dangerous than she expected.

If their opponent were a monster, then Realizers from official organizations would easily deal with it because those monsters had low intelligence and only acted on instinct. But if their opponent were a human, it would be even more troublesome because the culprit would operate in an organized and planned manner.

"Yes. They had found a clue about that organization. The name of the terrorist organization is Ghost Nebula, and the characteristics of their members are wearing black robes and spooky masks. But we still don't know the purpose of that organization. The Holy Union had discussed it with the Belial Alliance and the League of Heroes. Both organizations seem to have the same problem from the Ghost Nebula in their respective territories." Kaede nodded and read out the report she got on her dimension watch.

Although every official Realizer organization has a branch office in each city, only one organization can manage each region, and the other two organizations will only be supervisors.

Tokyo was an area that came under the jurisdiction of the Holy Union. The Belial Alliance and the League of Heroes in that city could only act as supervisors because the two organizations had jurisdictions in other regions.

"So, what about the goblins that were reported to be detected around this area? Are we going to keep looking for it?" Setsuka said, and her eyes kept looking at the broken smartphone next to the corpse.

"The Holy Union still hasn't canceled this mission. So we still have to find those monsters. We'll definitely be home late today." Kaede looked at Setsuka and smiled bitterly.

"Yes, I think so too." Setsuka sighed and took out her smartphone from her pocket. Then he typed a message and sent it to someone.

"Alright. Let's continue our search. I hope we can find those goblins soon and kill them. I have to return home immediately to calm Kohana down." Setsuka looked briefly at the mask on the corpse's face and left the place. Kaede couldn't help but smile when she heard that and walked after her.

After Tenku finished bathing and putting on his clothes, he took out his smartphone after seeing the incoming notification. When he opened the message, he couldn't help but sigh because the person who sent it was the same person who had sent him the message before he showered, Setsuka Fuyushima.

In her current message, Setsuka told Tenku not to come out of his apartment and wander around at night because a corpse had been found not far from his neighborhood.

"So they've found it? They found the corpse sooner than I expected. But what is the purpose of this girl continuing to text me?" Tenku looked at his smartphone in confusion. He didn't understand why Setsuka had sent him such a message.

Tenku didn't feel that close to that girl. Besides, he would never have thought that Setsuka would fall in love with him because that girl was unreachable to him, which was impossible. Tenku sighed and replied to Setsuka's message with a thank you. He had to do it because he felt the girl's intentions were good and sincere. Tenku couldn't bear to ignore it.

"I need to increase my cultivation as quickly as possible before the martial art competition at the end of this month. I don't know how strong the younger generation in China is, and the master didn't explain it to me in detail either.

So my priority now is to find a space collapse location to hunt monsters. Apart from increasing my strength, I also need income to pay off the master's debt and the expenses of my daily life. But Master hasn't found another space collapse, and I must find it myself." Tenku has a headache when he thinks about his current financial condition.

Tenku logged into the Holy Union's webpage with his ID card and tried to find a mission that a student like him could take. He hoped to get a mission to deal with space collapse, but that was impossible because he would be immediately rejected due to the data registered in the organization. While looking at the webpage, Tenku heard a knock on his apartment door.

"Who's visiting at this hour?" Tenku frowned and got up from his seat to open the door. Then he was shocked when he opened the door and saw the person who had come to his apartment.

"Akina? What are you doing coming to my apartment at this hour? Did uncle and aunt know about this?" Tenku asked the beautiful girl wearing a school uniform and standing in front of his door.

"I played at my friend's house after school. The location is not far from this place. When I was about to go home, I remembered that you had sent me your new residential address. So I decided to stop by here. Can we continue our chat inside?" Akina looked at Tenku and smiled slightly. She decided to treat Tenku better since the boy left the Karitoshi residence.

"Alright. Please come in." Tenku sighed and allowed Akina to enter. Although he was confused by Akina's sudden change in attitude, he was too lazy to ask and pretended not to notice. The most important thing for him right now was to think of a way to prevent Akina from lingering in his apartment.

"Please, Sit. What do you want to drink?" Tenku pointed at a sofa in the living room and asked Akina.

"Thank you. I want juice. Any fruit is fine." Akina sat on the sofa and looked at Tenku with a sweet smile on her face. She felt that if she didn't act aggressively to strengthen her relationship with Tenku, the other party would stay away from her, and Akina didn't want that to happen.

"Please wait a moment." Tenku left Akina in the living room and went to the kitchen. He remembered that he also bought fruit juice at the supermarket. Not long after, Tenku returned to the living room carrying a glass of fruit juice and snacks for Akina, and a cup of tea for himself.

"Please. I'm sorry that I forgot to buy your favorite snack." Tenku placed the fruit juice and snacks on the table in front of Akina.

"I will forgive you this time. But you'll have to buy it next time because I'll be stopping by your apartment often in the future." Akina smiled coquettishly and drank her fruit juice. The corner of Tenku's mouth twitched when he heard the girl's words.

"Alright. I'll buy it when I stop by the supermarket tomorrow. Then, did uncle and aunt know that you came to my place?" Tenku sat on the sofa opposite Akina and sipped her tea.

"They don't know." Akina shook her head and answered curtly.

"Then you better go home after finishing your fruit juice. I'm not forbidding you to come to my apartment, but I don't want uncle and aunt to be angry about this." Tenku tries to persuade Akina to go home.

"I understand." Akina nodded. Tenku sighed and shook his head. They chatted for a while, and Akina finally left his apartment. He didn't worry if the girl went home alone because he had already ensured no monsters were left in the area.

"Finally, the girl left." Tenku rested his body on the sofa and massaged his forehead. But after only a few seconds of relief, he heard another knock on the door.

"Who else this time?" Tenku frowned and went to see who else was coming to visit at that hour. When he opened the door, he was shocked when he saw Akina standing in front of his apartment with drenched clothes and exposing her excellent figure.

"It's suddenly raining outside. Can you let me take shelter here for a while?" Akina asked in a weak voice, fearing that Tenku would not allow it.

"Come in." Tenku sighed heavily and allowed Akina to enter his apartment.
