Thus, he turned his head without pause and continued spraying spit onto the banknotes in his hand.
Ten meters.
Alice heard their discussion about how to spend their ill-gotten gains.
Five meters.
Alice saw clearly the oil stains on the skinny monkey's jacket and the faded patches on the gold chain of the man with the mohawk.
Three meters.
Alice stopped behind the skinny monkey.
She was so close she could even smell the tar from the cheap tobacco burning on him and the sour, sweaty body odor of someone who hadn't bathed in days.
This was a strange and cold experience.
Alice adjusted her breathing slightly.
"System."
"Switch character card—Mikasa Ackerman."
In the instant her thought shifted.
That sense of detachment from the World shattered instantly.
A surge of explosive heat poured instantly into her limbs and bones.
If she had been a stone by the roadside the second before, now she was a battle blade that had just been unsheathed, glinting with cold light.
This sudden appearance was like a ghost suddenly materializing on a physical level.
The air itself seemed to vibrate slightly.
"Who?"
As a minor leader, the man with the mohawk had a slightly higher level of alertness.
When the chill of being watched by a beast pierced his spine, the corner of his eye finally caught the figure wearing a fox mask standing behind his companion.
The pair of red eyes, narrowed into slits on the mask, seemed to come alive, staring at him with a mocking smile.
The bizarre, chilling sensation made the hair on his body stand on end, and his heart skipped a beat.
But he only had time to let out a short, off-key cry of alarm.
Because Alice had already launched her attack.
She remained still until she struck like thunder.
She took a step, and the ground beneath her feet emitted a dull friction sound.
Her right leg, like a steel whip compressed to the limit and then released, whistled sharply as it tore through the air, kicking with precision, ruthlessness, and zero mercy into the back of the skinny monkey's right knee.
With the enhancement of Mikasa Ackerman's physique, the force of this kick was enough to snap a wooden stake.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound of bones and ligaments snapping exploded in the dead-end alley.
The skinny monkey didn't even realize what had happened before his right leg folded at a terrifying, unnatural angle.
"Aaaaaah—"
The pain signals, delayed by half a second, finally reached his brain. The skinny monkey let out a blood-curdling scream, lost his balance instantly, and fell heavily to his knees, the cigarettes in his hand flying away, sparks scattering everywhere.
Using the recoil from the kick, Alice's body vaulted into the air, defying the laws of physics, and she twisted her waist in mid-air in an unbelievable manner.
Her gray hoodie whipped through the air in a sharp arc.
Leveraging the terrifying power from her core, her left leg came crashing down like a battle-axe, targeting the neck of the big man weighing over two hundred pounds who was preparing to rush up.
"Bang!"
The tremendous kinetic energy sent the big man flying sideways, like a sandbag being thrown.
His body slammed heavily into the metal of the van behind him, emitting a deafening crash, and the entire vehicle shook violently.
The big man didn't even grunt. His eyes rolled back, and he slid down the side of the van like a pile of mush, passing out on the spot.
The remaining two finally reacted from their shock.
Fear and adrenaline exploded simultaneously.
"Damn it, what kind of monster is this!"
The man with the mohawk roared in terror, frantically shoved the money into his pocket, and reached into his jacket to draw his gun.
It was a cheap Glock pistol, his usual capital for showing off.
But at this moment, his movements in Alice's eyes were as slow as a frame-by-frame animation.
She could even clearly see the quivering fat on the face of the man with the mohawk and the process of his eyes shifting from ferocity to despair.
