Chapter 29 - Chapter 028: Mugen no Konton

Watashi no Isan ni Naru - Mugen no Konton

|Become My Legacy - Infinite Chaos|

It was an instant change that seemed to spread all around - in a massive area with the doll-like figure in the centre everything… Vanished. Energy so plentiful & dense erupted out to not only flatten the land but cause all the souls to dissipate under its pressure.

That energy was merely just the start.

The shadows themselves began to crawl out into the waking world; monstrosity inky creatures that seemed to be created from randomly sticking parts of various creatures into goop.

At the same time the sky slowly began to tinged a crimson shade, like someone spilt wine on the fabric of reality and could do little to stop it soaking in, as the celestial bodies started to tremble. Soon opening up to reveal a series of eyes looking down on the world below. And the sun & moon were no different.

Being a rare moment where both showed up as if to worship the presence of the abyss unlocking her fearsome sword spirits potential.

Opening into one massive feline eye that flickered over the world.

Directly below was the doll figure whose prior attempts to build a body seemed to be worthless as that body flaked away only to be replaced with something more. Beside her was a floating time with a crimson eye that looked down upon her. Joined by a black wand that seemed just as elegantly beautiful.

The cat fell to the floor as her body was unable to keep its strength under the transformation however soon Munzumira found herself rising from the floor. Curiosity filled her. That beautifully haunting figure reached her hands out in front of her, soon moving onto her arms as a whole, studying her body.

[[This is true power, our power, use it to find those kids!]]

"Well this is starting to get bor-"

On the side of the soul reapers (just as they were nervously waiting for that monster to act as it seemed he had lost his patience) only for him to abruptly pause mid sentence. Surprising considering how much he appeared to love his own voice. He also wasn't the only one who appeared affected.

The soul reapers couldn't feel it, it was out of their league, yet the cat as well as the monstrous jester both couldn't help turn their head in the same direction.

Although they soon were forced to look into the sky with widened eyes as they witnessed the true majesty of the changes underway. Those shinigami didn't seem to notice those changes. Instead finding themselves shocked at the sight of the inky tendrils rising from the darkest corners of the city.

"Is this the cat's ability?"

They both seemed to realise that the third seat of the 2nd division's words may have some logic so turned towards the old cat.

Much to their disappointment she shook her head.

"No… She appears to be her own person now Chehehe~!"

Just like that the world seemed to return to normal as the monster shrugged his shoulders as if it wasn't his problem to deal with.

"Well then, shall we begin as well~♪"

\_Few Minutes Later_/

"W-who are you?!"

In front of the trembling man was a cat girl of impeccable beauty - surpassing the limitations of mortals as well as that of a mere doll.

Her crimson eyes fell upon the trembling man who couldn't comprehend where his companions had vanished to once she entered. Those eyes the colour of wine seemed to see past him, their depths holding untold secrets, as the twinkling of stars hid beneath the blood hue. Split with a feline pupil.

Like a gash in the bloody universe that filled her vision.

Those eyes were haunting yet without a doubt the most beautiful thing he had ever seen; unable to turn away as she waved that magic wand she held in her hand. Perfectly clasped between her fingers with barely any power in her grip. Making the movement of slashing with it appear graceful.

Her grip seemingly so light that it could fly out her dainty hand in any second.

What flew out, however, was not the want.

Instead reality itself seemed to be cut according to how she moved her wand; literally sliding down according to the diangle line she painted.

It just so happened that the slash in space-time was right across his neck leaving him looking down on his own body with an odd feeling. Needing to turn his gaze to the side to see himself. Soon looking back at the girl responsible… As reality snapped back.

Blood spewed out as her hand brought that wand in front of her so that her spare one could dance across its surface with her plump lips forming that iconic feline smile. One filled with an unbridled confidence that mixed with her adorable nature to form something truly attractive. Helped by her perfectly balanced face.

Large eyes that had some red shadow, prior mentioned lips with a dash of colour and all centred around a cute button nose.

Galaxy filled hair was cut into a nice perm that became a little wild at the edges with some silver hair ornaments to help keep things under control. Atop were a pair of feline ears. Clearly no intent to hide from her origins although it seemed like the thugs she ran into didn't even notice on account of her beauty.

"Some peons are just so uncouth, fortunately they are as simple to kill as their thought process, now what is more interesting is this. The ability to turn the infinite possibilities into a reality as long as one has the computational facilities to comprehend it. I must admit…"

Removing one hand up to have her white sleeve fall aside; revealing a set of galaxy-coloured eyes across arms that were unlike her own pair. Though these ones lack the crimson filter over the top. They also did not possess the same feline pupil that both she and the floating tome possessed.

"Even I would struggle to make use of this ability of yours, Mugen, if not for these gifts."

[Yohohoho~ I am not an easy woman after all.]

[Plus it was me who let you use her!]

"Yes, indeed Konton, there is also you."

Those lips curled up a little more as a glimmer appeared in her eyes.

Throwing her arm down as the long sleeves of her robe flourished with all the grace that could be expected from one with a voice of hers. Despite her short stature none would mistake her for a child on account of how she held herself. The majesty impossible to fake with confidence alone.

Finally deciding to take note of the world around her which revealed her to be stood in front of a random shack a bit out of the city limits.

There were some guards when she first got here… Yet wiping out mere humans was an easy task and she even granted one the ability to see her just to see if she could. Being quite pleased with the results of her experimentation.

"I wonder if the one I just killed will become one of those monstrous spirits?"

[If trama is a part of the equation there is no doubt chehehe~!]

[Ara~ I do believe he was too focused on Mu's beauty to notice he died.]

"That would explain how we cannot find his soul; he died without regrets so moved on."

[Boo~]

[Konton, do not worry, we can always find him in the afterlife to punish that naughty child yohohohoho~!]

She simply shook her head without so much as commenting on the pair of sadists; knowing full well that she could do nothing to control them.

There was no stopping them.

Plus it seemed rational that, if they could grant her these abilities with no difficulty, they are far stronger than her. She also had no particular reason to stop them. Why would she care if they made some shitty thugs afterlife into a living nightmare?

Instead of wasting time on useless thoughts she headed inside that shack - a flick of the wand bringing with it a gust of wind that caused the door to fly open. Within the rather large shack she found exactly what she expected. There was a massive hollow and two motionless bodies.

A hollow that was very familiar by now.

"This one does suppose that nobles never have been the clever sort."

Blood dripped from his claw while the bodies were of a younger girl wrapped defensively by the older of the two. Although that attempted protection clearly ended up being pointless. Unless one believed that not knowing what was coming was more preferable than the alternative.

"LiTtLe tHiEf hAs lOsT WhAt sHe hOlDs dEaR~!"

"For now."

That response seemed to confused the hollow far more than the new appearance of the cat.

He knew this was that same little cat as he could tell her spiritual energy matched however he was confused about why she was so calm.

Fortunately she was quite forthcoming.

"I had already realised I was running late when I took a peak yet that does not matter; I have also managed to discover they both are now in some weird alternative dimension. So letting them die is actually quite preferable, I find. It means they needn't see what I'm about to do."

Before he felt confused.

He now felt something was seriously wrong with how this was going down.

That colourful freak had warned him that dead hostages were pointless so he kept that older girl safe enough while watching over her. Yet how could he resist when that little one came about? Knowing he had a chance to make that little cat who stole from him suffer?

There was no way he could resist.

As such he let that little girl sneak in only to kill them both even if their souls didn't stick around.

What he didn't expect was for the cat to suddenly seem so… Different. Let alone having a humanoid form upon becoming a "spiritual lifeform" just like him. It annoyed him that he wouldn't get to kill her while she was in her body yet her already being dead was fine with him.

He'd just get the pleasure of torturing her soul.

Knowing he was even stronger after feasting on so many souls - any concerns he had were thrown to the side for now as he raised his claw. Seeking to bat that cat around some. Maybe then pluck of those thin dangly limbs like they were crab legs; savouring her screams not taste.

At least until she whipped that wand out once more.

"Your death will not be a clean one… Or re-death I suppose?"

Unworried about the screams let out by that hollow as he clutched his now missing arm, only realising a second later that it had even been severed, Munzumira licking her plump lips. That cat-like smile growing with a sadistic gleam. The task of severing space momentarily seemed to take nothing from her.

Of course the hollow wasn't going to take that down as he abruptly exploded out yet there was no surprise on the little lady's face.

Simply swinging her baton like she was guiding a grand orchestra.

The disgusting blood of the hollow danced through the room however it never managed to touch her or the bodies of the girls. Seemingly rapidly slowing down as it approached till it became virtually still. Although if one had the capability they may see that the blood was still moving.

When the blood became too dense - preventing her from seeing in front of herself - her shadow expanded only for a monstrous maw exploded up to swallow the blood. Retreating back into the inky darkness as it hid back in her shadows. Not even stopping as she literally flayed that hollow.

Not being used to such a level of pain it was hardly surprising when his body began to break down to turn into dust.

"Tsk such a pathetic weakling."
