SILENCE.......

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzN1ONOdOAJ

WHOOSH....

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIf0d5L0Ju8

The dusty air cleared...

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu5ZuXJ2yXY

Arthur was gone.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZdKqslF50c

"Hm?" P muttered, dumbfounded.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbdWdKO07N

CLICK—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBBIhIb92Rx

P froze, snapping his head to the side as his eyes widened in jolting shock—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq30WG1gBMo

CRACK!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpS4B2kmJdr

BANG...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ69kg1NeyAx

"OH SHIT—!" P instantly dove behind an overturned gaming table.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5Xj8j6X6G

BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYjxRFDTko

BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbOTG4Bg5lE

"YAAAAAA.....!" Arthur screamed, firing wildly at P's position.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqq1HclSKt6

PEW! PEW!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP0kF7Gj89V

The gun and its rounds were heavily imbued with Arthur's surging red aura, turning the firearm into something ten times more lethal.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9CRsVNpejl

PEW!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnhPzqqYTh

A bullet ripped clean through the heavy wooden table P was hiding behind, blasting a deep crater straight into the concrete floor below.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnPlsuBHwCM

P's eyes flickered with shock.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyQz7tghCK

BANG—!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18Gt6udeBb

"What the fu—!" P scrambled out from behind the cover.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsa5gtt9EfH

BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQVANaVOEpE

PEW! PEW!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsaIHOOG9fE

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhJs8UEEpXd

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhpNNLQsMY

Abandoning the table, P sprinted across the floor, dodging bullets as Arthur pursued him, firing continuously.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx2VE9zmXIP

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkTIXZoDiIb

GRAB!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOWLIzTyUrl

P snatched a fallen timber tabletop off the ground then tossed it at Arthur with his right arm.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9asPVMeXFk

FLING!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1I2c73voKQ

STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3i4OpayF52

With cold, dead eyes, Arthur tracked the flying timberwood table and pulled the trigger.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8uiU2zPCsw

BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqabkyfAiMA

PEW!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7VFaT1mxV

BOOM- BUAK....!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLb874dlwxh

The entire tabletop exploded into splinters.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEKHm4FZLYS

"JE-SUS!" P gasped in shock.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6IGNXEjpVc

A stray round grazed P's shoulder, blasting into the concrete wall behind him as he winced.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1jTvRv6L3w

BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZZx4x0AGs4

WEAVE.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoTUVuwb32L

BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡViBnvtHjTp

WEAVE.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYmkI3kzRH

Arthur kept firing; P kept weaving.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvYoOjrSfCh

This guy's gun is shooting actual grenades... I need to close the distance fast, P thought.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEyLVG3xjof

P grabbed a silver serving tray off a nearby cart and flung it straight at Arthur's head.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnqDM22w17m

Arthur fired directly at it.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqe2TNxUqqi

BANG...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbb1f80D7tR

"HUH?!" Arthur's eyes widened.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlAYaqJNQe0

The bullet didn't penetrate the tray—instead, the metal plate accelerated, flying straight for Arthur's face at an impossible speed!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgb10czwjlV

WEAVE.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa4WIiTOZrA

Arthur reacted instantly, snapping his head back to let the tray whistle past. But as he snapped his head back up—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1IC0y2tNL

P was already there, standing less than a meter away.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLIgNRHKhEj

Yet, that was precisely what Arthur had planned.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡppQfKGfX0g

Arthur had purposely exposed himself, baiting P into throwing a distraction to close the gap—but was lucky enough to quickly dodge the tray or else it would have been his head off.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhRp80AewC

P froze mid-step. Arthur already had the barrel pointed directly between his eyes, a disturbing smile spreading across his face.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEPJO8nxsw

.........

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMZSDC85Kh2

P stared quietly down the barrel.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOEwrPoOxAC

CLIC—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV9pwhJgKDY

"Damn, he got me," P thought right as Arthur squeezed the trigger.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkzm5zD6YU4

Suddenly—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLg2kHj9ip

WHOOSH—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtGSf0FQvPn

WHAM!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MMc8QSnA9

A heavy metal fire extinguisher flew through the air, smacking Arthur square in the right side of the head before clattering to the floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfKLxLkJci

PLANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX211jLsuII

It didn't do a single bit of physical damage to Arthur, but it ruined his focus.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqBeNex8nHg

"GAAAAAHH!" Arthur growled, turning his head slowly toward the source of the throw.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwC3z2oy0RW

Arthur's eyes widened slightly.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡze26sbpTkC

P looked over, equally surprised.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcEs77GNrmt

"...Hanabi?" P thought.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvEYYZ8nb4T

Hanabi stood at the top of the ruined stairs, looking down at them.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiwjEvxTrCz

STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8DjCuSAXvX

"Arthur, what are you—" Hanabi started.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ16l4OmrlcV

BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ZoF1Fwbgh

Before she could finish her sentence, Arthur snapped his wrist toward her and pulled the trigger.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxllQ49502c

BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoDB6tXzjYC

Hanabi reacted instinctively, leaping off the cracked staircase and diving behind an overturned roulette table.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5t3uBVhIVU

THUD!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTGxbW1fTYX

P capitalized instantly, grabbing Arthur's gun arm and forcing it downward as they grappled over the weapon.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxrTeTgujq

BANG! BANG! BANG!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZEXraunHx9

Rounds chewed into the floorboards between their boots.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡygNqVkiE54

"Hurgh!" P grunted, refusing to yield an inch.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnU0HxDudpX

Together, they wrestled the barrel upward toward the ceiling—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVMyHaQ7mit

BANG...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdMST9UmqWI

BANG...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk951exLD6n

P drove a sharp elbow straight into Arthur's throat!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRF88fYEIX4

WHAM...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpKMzsElzlT

"GURGH...!" Arthur choked out, immediately snapping his forehead forward in a brutal headbutt.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHT1KWvKfSs

POW..!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25TaPtW0QC

WHOOSH!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqeTbqAKvVo

THUD..!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpsnw2rVQTF

"Hurgh—" P grunted as he was hurled backward onto the floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMYvq0sSHf

WHIISH..

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdfICO4eM9s

In slow motion, Arthur turned back toward the table Hanabi was hiding behind, raising his weapon to fire.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HEmYvnOpj

Hanabi was already crawling on her hands and knees to reach a sturdier table nearby. But just as she slipped behind it—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWu4mAXuf0S

ROLL.... ROLL....

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcpnz5giMYT

The heavy table inexplicably rolled away on its own side-wheels, leaving her completely exposed in the open.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ24ornOTqFF

"—Eh?" Hanabi blinked, utterly dumbfounded.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeP3w3vG0wU

She watched the table coast away in disbelief while turning back to face Arthur with widened eyes .

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsgh1VYKDBM

As Arthur aligned his sight—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLExkemXBgC

CLi—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQv3oa156Tg

P tackled Arthur at full speed, spearing him straight into the floor!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWwHbccnNvE

THUD!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUQJMdHdk9I

ROLL. ROLL.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhm33M2iCzY

They tumbled across the floor, hands locked over the frame of the gun.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNGIKkieGrg

Hanabi scrambled to her feet.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCbE7vzRx0E

THUD!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrXGxHQYOS4

Arthur forced his weight onto P, pinning him to the floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDvih0PZP3w

TP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpfvTRg9Ocd

Arthur threw a heavy left fist directly into P's face.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgKMq3mGfzu

WHACK!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnTk8si75g7

The concrete cracked under P's head, but P refused to let go, tightening his left hand around Arthur's wrist like a vise.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡntGXdyrIVv

GRIP!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBR1ZwSfOz

SNATCH!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAJK9xmhiyt

Arthur tore his arm free with a surge of energy and discharged a round—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFT6HxAaBYk

BANG...!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdJG20hQ77w

The bullet sailed through the air toward Hanabi, who was just regaining her balance.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC052Y3RFid

Before the round could travel past Arthur's radius—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBnnzqiQigu

WHISSSH.......

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLq1N5RjbRc

P's right hand shot up, catching the bullet mid-flight.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi9MIOQZL6w

Pt.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8oKG53UyGC

GRAB.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSmWbx5M3H

Without hesitating, P drove the bullet straight into Arthur's left kneecap!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeQXfC4G8K

Pt.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Z3jJAcVF7

"Argh—!" Arthur shrieked in pain.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUGEVioFACV

P grabbed Arthur's leg, using his entire body mass to roll Arthur over and pin him to the floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9XIATRyXJE

THUD!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7iSZjZ5IH

P knelt heavily on Arthur's armed hand, locking it to the ground.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCUdHLmstRj

GRAB!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4nWDkbTUsZ

P clamped his left hand around Arthur's throat, raising his right fist and raining blows onto Arthur's face until the floor fractured beneath his skull.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtAYayReay

WHACK!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEUVQ5y7eYN

WHACK!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡszj71h88ja

CRACK....

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjAPZBCSsTO

P turned his head toward Hanabi. "What are you doing?! Get out of—"

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfc31weXwFk

Before he could finish, Arthur's left hand began crackling with red sparks.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNxlf8wsJu5

WHIIISSH....

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYAyj0u8jGE

BZZT.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqTv2xPpNeX

FLASH!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4uZ73Ecew

BOOM!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzNpyMacelm

A sudden explosion of crimson energy blasted P backward, launching him straight through the casino's high windows and out into the night.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9VU2RX03eY

CRASH....

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Ui7msMNZM

THUD!

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC6Z3Olr2r2

Arthur pushed himself up, pivoting to his right to fire at Hanabi, who was already sprinting up the stairs toward the floor above.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdBA5zkY6OW

TAK. TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyocUgXwlQE

CLICK. CLICK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS5I2LEbmHp

Arthur pulled the trigger, but the gun clicked empty. His vision flickered with red static.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcHw54ZyAKR

"Argh...!" Arthur grunted in frustration, tossing the empty gun aside.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ25DWrngRJ9

He then started his chase for Hanabi.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5dcxUr2b8V

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rim892eDH

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe3yFqvqaCB

Tsk, I'm not as fast as I was before... I can't keep up with her because I used up all my divinity on that disgusting monkey... Argh! Arthur fumed internally.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGJJYy5RIGJ

"Hanabi, stop! I just protected you! Why are you running?!" Arthur called out as he climbed.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxnRfWvCdzr

STEP. STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQoUKfthYuM

Arthur reached the upper landing just as Hanabi reached the far end of the floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpdOdiemGGx

"I'm not stupid... I know what I saw!" Hanabi shouted back over her shoulder.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2zUgh08ij

"Tsk" Hissed Arthur.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNU6OKbXkQA

TAK. TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkq1gC6ywLl

Hanabi bolted toward the curved stairwell on the right side of the second floor, which led directly up to the main hall on the first floor.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn3M7QdRdQN

TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlOp2weAHwJ

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSg0aMBYt2M

Arthur pursued her relentlessly.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKhqMoGWcF

Meanwhile, in the dark alleyway outside the casino's front entrance—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LOFUFRQb5

STEP—

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u3Ua0QYSc

CRNSH...

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyTVROpmri4

A boot stepped onto the bed of shattered glass covering the pavement outside.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOiTLug3ZUL

"Haa...." P sighed

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10TvvukKbm

TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1QKlFJFtOy

TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTWBC2YqsZW

"Haa... haa..." Hanabi panted, bursting through the heavy door into the main first-floor area.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4x50BpIuT

CREAK..

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgAXqc8j9IW

The panicked murmurs of the crowd sheltering on the first floor gradually quieted down as they saw her.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyjuewUwvXu

MURMUR... MURMUR...

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvC8nbrP98x

"It's just a girl..."

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS8ky0qSVhf

"What's happening down there...?"

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnrX08Eufb

"Keep quiet..."

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIBUNQlPW3w

"Is it over...?"

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaXDgKXxA3d

"Oh my God..."

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqmlunKHYJ2

TAK. TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZorId3Hyfy

Hanabi pushed her way into the dense crowd.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr907nKr6kb

"Ma'am, are you okay?" asked a security guard, reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO5J7E3qgIx

SHFF.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0pF6L9GKnn

Hanabi brushed his hand off without stopping. "I'm fine..." she said, quickening her pace.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyGUsZTYFc

TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1zxvtBE1Pw

TMP. TMP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Qcc0E7giJ

Arthur pushed through the double doors onto the first floor behind her.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3q1lLi95kK

His eyes scanned the room, ignoring the nervous stares of the crowd.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkiXgKGWJOo

TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSSRwSaj8bQ

TURN.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi6XdlSsOdN

TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QnYoQzxAQ

Hanabi glanced back through the crowd and spotted Arthur instantly. Her eyes widened.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOwQmtbzOV

The security guard who had approached her noticed her panicked expression as she turned and hurried away into the crowd toward his left.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd2CsQWIgTU

TAK. TAK. TAK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4s86PnnEW

The guard turned toward his right, his eyes locking onto Arthur, who was moving swiftly through the hall with singular focus.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJJ926vX0ug

STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3tBnA3XFA

PUSH.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS4yG3tUkKv

"Hey...!" a woman complained as Arthur shoved past her.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh8haULpeED

"Get out of the way—" Arthur growled.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHSJTBfcRPS

STEP. PUSH.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl68Ddvz0a7

"Hey, watch it!" a man grunted.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzLVros2Kej

Arthur forced his way through the guests, shoving anyone in his path.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFniAGlbA9k

The security guard's eyes narrowed.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdc3BgdsWVP

MURMUR... MURMUR...

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8suAa9EYn

STEP. STEP. STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm7EtNUVna6

The guard maneuvered through the crowd to intercept Arthur.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ90ROOn6rEa

TAP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKfGr0tYHX6

CLENCH.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0ace45F69v

He unclipped the holster on the left side of his tactical belt, resting his palm on the grip of his gun on the right.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEe1UVEfvA0

STEP. STEP.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ1xiT2DYZ7

Arthur strode forward, completely oblivious to the guard closing in on his flank.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJVZYL1m3YC

They were less than a meter apart.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb18x4R2pC3

"Excuse me, sir—" the guard began, pushing past a patron. "Pardon me—"

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlf8O421EL

Suddenly, a guest stepped between them, briefly blocking the guard's line of sight.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtV0OlLCPTa

WHOOSH..

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDsAcIPpRA8

The guard's eyes widened.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8w2kOEzK6N

Arthur had vanished from view. But as the guard turned to his left, Arthur materialized directly in front of him, reaching out and pulling the guard's head in like a sudden embrace.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP8NZL8FwsY

CLICK.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAyTvUzBThI

The guard's eyes dilated in terrifying shock as Arthur pressed the barrel of a stolen pistol under his chin.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEqUhjKoJQZ

Arthur stepped over the security guard as blood pool spread across the floor tiles.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhhovhw2KJ1

Panic immediately erupted through the first-floor hall as guests caught sight of the body.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaZIgOL5U1J

"Oh Jesus-" a woman gasped in shock.

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5PI90hema

MURMUR... MURMUR...*

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ40Z7xij0jA

DRIP....*

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHPYs7ZRA7

The guard lay motionless, his face resting in the pool of blood. His sidearm was gone.

MURMUR... MURMUR...

176Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKekmk3XQ5Q

He could hear the shouting and echoing from the other side.
