Throne Of Time

Once eliminated, Kurumi immediately started to search for a map, usually positioned on the streets to help the population find their way. It was not difficult to find it since it was very close to where she was. Then, approaching, she looked carefully at the various streets of the neighborhood in which she is currently located, of the city of Musutafu.

Just as she was looking at the map, Kurumi felt called and then turning around, she noticed that a very skinny man with sharp, angular features and long limbs, wearing baggy clothes was calling her.

So turning around to look at him directly, she asked "Tell me sir", the man did not expect a girl of such beauty in front of him.

After a cough, to hide his embarrassment, he continued "I wanted to ask you if everything was fine, I noticed that you were looking at the map..." but then he started to cough heavily and only after he stopped coughing and tried to regain his breath, he continued "Excuse me. Therefore, I was saying ... if you needed indications for a specific place, you just have to tell me."

Kurumi did not expect such a situation, but immediately after a few seconds, recovering her calm, she replied, "I would need directions to this place" indicating the road and the place to the man, heard from the man before.

Hearing the girl in front of him, indicating that place, the man's eyebrows immediately wrinkled, to then say "You shouldn't go ..." but right after, he started to cough for a while, to then resume his saying "... in that place, especially a lady like you."

Hearing this, Kurumi understood that there are not only selfish people in this world; it's just that she is unlucky, meeting only villains.

She had already understood it, if there were only selfish people, there wouldn't be Heroes, but it is the first time that she has met a person with a selfless character, apart from, of course, Shido Itsuka.

For this reason, Kurumi with a genuine smile looked at the man and said "You don't have to worry about me, I am aware of the danger of that place"

The man immediately after hearing Kurumi wanted to say more, but then he did not.

Then, in a calm tone, he said to her "I just hope you don't do nonsense, missy" to then, turning around and going away, after pointing the place to Kurumi with a face as if he had decided something.

Kurumi watched the man as he was walking away, then turned in the direction of the hiding place of the Yakuza "Inagawa-kai" group.

As she had foreseen, it was not far. In fact, after a short time, she reached the place. From the outside, it looked like a simple warehouse, but Kurumi knows that one of the bases of one of the most powerful groups in Japan is located here. For this reason, without risking, she went into the Astral Dress and then submerged herself in the shadows.

Then, carefully, without warning anyone, she entered from under the main entrance and then found herself in an area full of crates. Kurumi knows that there are large quantities of drugs inside.

Now she just has to look for the real entrance to the base of the group, so without hesitation, she called several clones of herself, contained within the first space of her Shadow Manipulation ability.

Kurumi did not take too long, mainly thanks to the fact that there was no one inside, so once she found the entrance thanks to the clones, who told her the precise point, she continued to advance, passing a door hidden in the warehouse cabin, inside she found a long staircase leading down.

Without hesitation, always within her shadow, she continued until she found another door, from which voices came, all of which were male.

So, entering inside, Kurumi immediately started looking for the point where they create fake ID cards, it didn't take too long, therefore, checking that nobody was nearby, she turned on the program inside the computer and then quickly entered the data, making a quick signature and taking a photo, all of this in less than two minutes.

Shortly after, through the machine made specifically for this, she took the final result looking satisfied.

Kurumi noticed this, she quickly summoned the musket and then shot the computer, she didn't want to be found by people.

Only that this shot did nothing but alarm everyone inside the "bunker", already shaken by the "earthquake" before, so, within seconds, Kurumi found herself surrounded by a group of people.

Each of whom looked at Kurumi with eyes as if they were looking at a dead person.

They are not mere street criminals. They are a group specialized in operations and with specific rules.

Just as Kurumi was about to go into her shadow, a very strong wind hit the entire underground area, a wind so strong that it overturned almost everything.

Kurumi can confirm that anyone who has done this is not someone to joke with.

Immediately after, a laugh filled the entire area, Kurumi was amazed. She never expected such a situation.

A large muscular man, more than two meters tall, blond hair combed back with two tufts curling upwards, wearing a blue and red tight suit on his muscular body entered by overwhelming several people who had surrounded her.

The man then looked at Kurumi and, with a big smile, said, "It is fine now. Why? Because I am here!"
