"Smith-san. I have come for your life. For the sake of your beloved family, please accept your death."
Aki Miroku, a comrade who I fought side by side during the Enlistment. A loyal person with an immense sense of justice. A Japanese beauty who took my breath away the moment I laid eyes on her.
"Aki, what are you saying?"
The ninja in front of me turned around and threw a shuriken at the table.
"NOOO!!!!!!"
My heart raced as I wondered who would be hit by her deadly weapon. {Aim} and {Snipe} activated, tracking the eastern projectile's trajectory. To my surprise, the ninja star was about to bury itself harmlessly in the middle of the table.
Freed from one worry, I checked on my second family. They all collapsed on their chairs, seemingly lifeless.
'Please, let them be okay!'
