Seeing Shizuku use the vacuum cleaner Nen Beast to suck out the iron sand in her body, Regan sneered.
In his understanding, the suction power capable of pulling out the iron sand from her body would inevitably cause Shizuku to bleed heavily.
However-
When he saw that the blood on Shizuku's body remained unmoved in the face of that suction force, he immediately realized that the vacuum cleaner Nen Beast could selectively filter what it absorbed.
This was like using a vacuum cleaner to clean up a floor of paper scraps and dust, where only the paper scraps entered the vacuum's intake while the dust remained unmoved in place.
"Stop her!"
Regan's expression changed slightly, and he raised his hands to activate his ability.
Instantly, a magnetic-like pull was generated between his hands and Shizuku's body.
In the face of this force, which is more akin to magnetism, Shizuku, who was temporarily unable to move, was suddenly pulled into the air towards Regan.
At the same time.
Parme did not retract the dagger, nor did she intend to conjure the dagger again. Instead, she just walked straight towards the flying Shizuku.
To kill an immobile enemy is extremely simple.
It is better to keep the 'token' in standby mode just in case. Besides, the detached dagger could only ensure its own quality, and was not as lethal as a Nen technique.
Shizuku, suspended in mid-air, calmly glanced at Regan and Parme's movements.
'A bit too late.'
She thought to herself.
Even though she was in a dangerous situation, she still showed no reaction, as if completely unaware of what was about to happen.
Just at this critical moment.
A sudden, ear-piercing sound of splintering wood rang out from within the inn.
It was the noise made when the freckled girl raised a wooden chair and smashed it onto Regan.
The chair smashed into Regan and instantly broke into pieces, leaving only half of the chair back in the freckled girl's hand.
This strike could not cause any substantial harm to Regan.
However-
When using the ability [Our Love Will Never Part], Regan had to be in a state of 'not being disturbed by a third party'.
Otherwise the ability will be invalidated on the spot.
Thus, when the brave freckled girl smashed the wooden chair on Regan, the magnetic force that had been drawing Shizuku suddenly disappeared.
Without the pull of the magnetic force Shizuku, who was in a low-altitude state, suddenly fell to the ground and stop. Her face still looked calm as she stared straight at Parme rushing towards her.
'Now there's time.'
Shizuku could already feel the binding force on her body quickly weakening.
It was likely that the binding strength was related to the number of black particles entering her body.
The more there were, the stronger the binding force; conversely, the fewer there were, the weaker the binding force.
After his ability was interrupted, Regan slowly turned his head to look at the freckled girl, who was holding half a chair, and her whole body immediately stiffened.
"Trash."
Seeing the terrified expression on the freckled girl's face, anger flashed in Regan's eyes.
He and Parme had never considered a mere ant in their calculations.
Therefore, it was precisely this inexplicable arrogance derived from their 'abilities' had allowed the freckled girl to get close to him and swung the chair at him.
In fact, Regan never expected that an ant would dare to act against him, an elephant. The anger rising in his eyes quickly turned into murderous intent.
"Get lost, you piece of trash."
Regan suddenly raised his arm and slapped towards the freckled girl.
If this Nen-powered slap landed, the freckled girl's head would likely be shattered to pieces instantly.
But at this moment, a black shadow flashed past and took away the freckled girl at a speed invisible to the naked eye.
Whoosh-!
With the freckled girl vanishing into thin air, Regan's slap hit nothing but air.
At the same time…
A figure appeared on the ground in front. It was Moses, who had intervened at the critical moment. At this time, he was holding the freckled girl firmly in his arms.
Regan looked at the sudden appearance of Moses and was startled.
'A companion of that rat? I didn't even sense him earlier... Fortunately, this idiot chose to save that piece of trash instead of ambushing me.'
He originally thought there was only one rat that stole the 'Black Widow's Tears', so he had confidently launched this 'sure victory' frontal attack.
However, with another Nen user suddenly appearing, Regan felt the situation was slipping out of control l, and he immediately considered retreating.
'However, as long as we could first eliminate the one with the vacuum cleaner Nen Beast...'
"Parme..."
Thinking of this, Reagan glanced quickly towards Parme out of the corner of his eye.
Unfortunately-
The scene he hoped to see did not unfold.
The short-haired girl had already dispelled the binding effect of [Our Love Will Never Part] before Parme's attack reached her.
Parme was forced back by the vacuum cleaner Nen Beast wielded by the short-haired girl.
'Damn it.'
Regan cursed inwardly.
The situation that had seemed secure just moments ago had changed so dramatically in mere seconds.
Shizuku, holding Blinky, paid no mind to the many wounds on her body but looked at Moses, who had suddenly intervened to save the freckled girl.
'Who is that?'
In fact, she had noticed Moses and Menchi when they checked in today, but she had forgotten about them within a few hours.
But she did remember the freckled girl who stayed in the inn every day.
Just now, it was thanks to the help of this freckled girl that she was able to gain that crucial second.
'If that man hadn't rescued her in time, the freckled girl would be dead now.'
Shizuku thought to herself.
Parme retreated to Regan's side, and asked with a frown, "What do we do now?"
"…"
Regan was silent for a moment and looked at Moses coldly.
Moses met Regan's cold gaze and said with interest, "Twin Wings, B-Class wanted criminal, you are qualified to be my first target after becoming a Blacklist Hunter."
After saying that, he didn't care about Regan and Parme's reactions, but gently put the freckled girl down.
"You're very brave, but could I ask you to leave for a minute?"
"Ah?"
The freckled girl finally reacted at this moment, staring blankly at Moses, who was so close to her.
Only now did she realize it was Moses who had saved her.
"Don't worry, I can guarantee that the thing you hold in your hand will be the last victim of this place."
Moses glanced at the half-broken chair back the freckled girl was gripping tightly and reassured with a smile.
"I…"
Hearing this, the freckled girl's cheeks flushed slightly with embarrassment, and she let go of the half chair in her hand with some embarrassment.
Thunk.
The chair back fell to the ground with a thud.
Moses then looked at Regan and Parme.
At this moment…
Reagan and Pam were both furious.
After all, they were completely underestimated by this guy in front of them.
