SILENCE.......

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMRE4DFkE4

WHOOSH....

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10lJPNAFHv

The dusty air cleared...

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu1dvXSMGEp

Arthur was gone.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwSKVruF2XQ

"Hm?" P muttered, dumbfounded.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAo8CAn238g

CLICK—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRKigjOirbY

P froze, snapping his head to the side as his eyes widened in jolting shock—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSb7SjpxKkZ

CRACK!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Li9FBSIxq

BANG...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxT4EAJ8CiX

"OH SHIT—!" P instantly dove behind an overturned gaming table.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzc5GwgNkBp

BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ37gVU9Oqul

BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXtrrHkY8lB

"YAAAAAA.....!" Arthur screamed, firing wildly at P's position.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2R7o4xwaA6

PEW! PEW!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPWzJBNdKjy

The gun and its rounds were heavily imbued with Arthur's surging red aura, turning the firearm into something ten times more lethal.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFXWbkNWRw

PEW!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCuNOe9oDt

A bullet ripped clean through the heavy wooden table P was hiding behind, blasting a deep crater straight into the concrete floor below.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsWjm3cQ5sT

P's eyes flickered with shock.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6EMYmvaQT

BANG—!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjVIYF5t494

"What the fu—!" P scrambled out from behind the cover.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzYuVTLvJrF

BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfKIQVRZ3YQ

PEW! PEW!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyVTB7sU6oC

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmTiveRLmUk

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡroGMrrcOdh

Abandoning the table, P sprinted across the floor, dodging bullets as Arthur pursued him, firing continuously.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNzJKwpS5nu

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZWfCfGRh0x

GRAB!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPBFAddTscx

P snatched a fallen timber tabletop off the ground then tossed it at Arthur with his right arm.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ95Mwdr39KV

FLING!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv6NZOkFJDw

STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ddl3taDd0

With cold, dead eyes, Arthur tracked the flying timberwood table and pulled the trigger.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nUGdbCzy6

BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYj39zI2BCf

PEW!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ02AMVSbu2M

BOOM- BUAK....!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWru5Ztct6H

The entire tabletop exploded into splinters.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlEKSxmUE3g

"JE-SUS!" P gasped in shock.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhEjLD8NHDT

A stray round grazed P's shoulder, blasting into the concrete wall behind him as he winced.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYRp6Kb9ngy

BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ6L1FyGVXK

WEAVE.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJGwM8k3rLW

BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVEezgsmBw2

WEAVE.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0NiuJ32b2

Arthur kept firing; P kept weaving.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK7M5e4DVUR

This guy's gun is shooting actual grenades... I need to close the distance fast, P thought.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSTiXcK469a

P grabbed a silver serving tray off a nearby cart and flung it straight at Arthur's head.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZD5yzoQO5N

Arthur fired directly at it.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltNtC6VxMy

BANG...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5mnNMXayp

"HUH?!" Arthur's eyes widened.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVXYQQgVs5Q

The bullet didn't penetrate the tray—instead, the metal plate accelerated, flying straight for Arthur's face at an impossible speed!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOBojUVFN53

WEAVE.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNIBvvuV8aE

Arthur reacted instantly, snapping his head back to let the tray whistle past. But as he snapped his head back up—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTbHbJaWHLD

P was already there, standing less than a meter away.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2KjwEHIH5T

Yet, that was precisely what Arthur had planned.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBJC5ClrOS

Arthur had purposely exposed himself, baiting P into throwing a distraction to close the gap—but was lucky enough to quickly dodge the tray or else it would have been his head off.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIyjW4k19p3

P froze mid-step. Arthur already had the barrel pointed directly between his eyes, a disturbing smile spreading across his face.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWg1DuRGhpQ

.........

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGPU2K5JvNx

P stared quietly down the barrel.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDcukgq4E3p

CLIC—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzJUG7ZETv

"Damn, he got me," P thought right as Arthur squeezed the trigger.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGz0NISfTty

Suddenly—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpWebVhTo2A

WHOOSH—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtFOoidbj62

WHAM!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRSLMvyemmY

A heavy metal fire extinguisher flew through the air, smacking Arthur square in the right side of the head before clattering to the floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjs1Ou0z7tM

PLANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAwpJ04nqsu

It didn't do a single bit of physical damage to Arthur, but it ruined his focus.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4orW4IssII

"GAAAAAHH!" Arthur growled, turning his head slowly toward the source of the throw.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNhgBZglo4s

Arthur's eyes widened slightly.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM2koEtQGpn

P looked over, equally surprised.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡouDyqg8JqL

"...Hanabi?" P thought.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMSNtRmn4g

Hanabi stood at the top of the ruined stairs, looking down at them.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIqQHbDCb7I

STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxDnS7RedCh

"Arthur, what are you—" Hanabi started.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwYmmhhuDIA

BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQXqHSrCEGe

Before she could finish her sentence, Arthur snapped his wrist toward her and pulled the trigger.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHk4RhItvm

BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUpAIFLXfOX

Hanabi reacted instinctively, leaping off the cracked staircase and diving behind an overturned roulette table.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWBfkHqLDhx

THUD!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVfzMdHLrNz

P capitalized instantly, grabbing Arthur's gun arm and forcing it downward as they grappled over the weapon.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlCrMiMqAl

BANG! BANG! BANG!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0NBFKdKq9a

Rounds chewed into the floorboards between their boots.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeTvP50Jm1O

"Hurgh!" P grunted, refusing to yield an inch.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkSrR2NynHy

Together, they wrestled the barrel upward toward the ceiling—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuuRSvM2uMm

BANG...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy3fqo8PthY

BANG...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09ps27Cc97

P drove a sharp elbow straight into Arthur's throat!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIJ7wYeEHU

WHAM...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw6gXWMUZll

"GURGH...!" Arthur choked out, immediately snapping his forehead forward in a brutal headbutt.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuZZFMGSMlU

POW..!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK6H8kktR5G

WHOOSH!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXLSKkxjeDY

THUD..!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadhU4Y6NdV

"Hurgh—" P grunted as he was hurled backward onto the floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBXWWWbWxZ

WHIISH..

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMpqef28QU8

In slow motion, Arthur turned back toward the table Hanabi was hiding behind, raising his weapon to fire.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcKKeyo5HqP

Hanabi was already crawling on her hands and knees to reach a sturdier table nearby. But just as she slipped behind it—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGsdeol4G4z

ROLL.... ROLL....

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡspOrNSel0p

The heavy table inexplicably rolled away on its own side-wheels, leaving her completely exposed in the open.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcDT90Isflk

"—Eh?" Hanabi blinked, utterly dumbfounded.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡanWVkDEJCh

She watched the table coast away in disbelief while turning back to face Arthur with widened eyes .

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCQ0xyNOn9N

As Arthur aligned his sight—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsNuJtEyLjA

CLi—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsX9oiObMMS

P tackled Arthur at full speed, spearing him straight into the floor!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4b3ImgEg6n

THUD!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2kppoQIbDZ

ROLL. ROLL.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vtaCGxmgS

They tumbled across the floor, hands locked over the frame of the gun.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhsPsuULFsg

Hanabi scrambled to her feet.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrsmq0kRpsM

THUD!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaLMY90IP5M

Arthur forced his weight onto P, pinning him to the floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDwHQLoQkGP

TP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY3cCGuWN3x

Arthur threw a heavy left fist directly into P's face.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcFIpQBPVKl

WHACK!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qCE2PRSH2

The concrete cracked under P's head, but P refused to let go, tightening his left hand around Arthur's wrist like a vise.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTn1lkp2MCE

GRIP!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8WA1ShDjOe

SNATCH!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY6J0PV7L7

Arthur tore his arm free with a surge of energy and discharged a round—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1cyUzv5oX

BANG...!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLmjWEHBX4

The bullet sailed through the air toward Hanabi, who was just regaining her balance.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbRsHx8XhaG

Before the round could travel past Arthur's radius—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhAsRQ4WkjP

WHISSSH.......

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSmkRHzmpHH

P's right hand shot up, catching the bullet mid-flight.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwJNyH5wYk

Pt.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEtaNISlfab

GRAB.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf4nyEK5n2S

Without hesitating, P drove the bullet straight into Arthur's left kneecap!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFxkQrgzCK

Pt.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDO3f9kiiE

"Argh—!" Arthur shrieked in pain.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCJF4yTDL1

P grabbed Arthur's leg, using his entire body mass to roll Arthur over and pin him to the floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnsehhoNmjp

THUD!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkjjjCq4Vdf

P knelt heavily on Arthur's armed hand, locking it to the ground.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1cvJb0XLl

GRAB!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsoFInofY6z

P clamped his left hand around Arthur's throat, raising his right fist and raining blows onto Arthur's face until the floor fractured beneath his skull.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdkduZWfmM2

WHACK!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1Ea7RPd6Rz

WHACK!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGBdjM6436G

CRACK....

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx0xhnx5CKq

P turned his head toward Hanabi. "What are you doing?! Get out of—"

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIXua4Wu4BI

Before he could finish, Arthur's left hand began crackling with red sparks.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GxjZBpX9C

WHIIISSH....

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasbFaANukF

BZZT.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhLn6Fvvdqy

FLASH!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpX0H5UnWBq

BOOM!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtLoz3F2F06

A sudden explosion of crimson energy blasted P backward, launching him straight through the casino's high windows and out into the night.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQyCwCqSFz0

CRASH....

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yxT68Cu3M

THUD!

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUEA5H4xvgj

Arthur pushed himself up, pivoting to his right to fire at Hanabi, who was already sprinting up the stairs toward the floor above.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5rgMOrsZrb

TAK. TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3Hg3LUzx5E

CLICK. CLICK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykBmkess9j

Arthur pulled the trigger, but the gun clicked empty. His vision flickered with red static.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡadRBRPOsHb

"Argh...!" Arthur grunted in frustration, tossing the empty gun aside.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeXVH9wmLdW

He then started his chase for Hanabi.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvsEWo49eSb

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwELR96PkHO

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPooGddVZ2Y

Tsk, I'm not as fast as I was before... I can't keep up with her because I used up all my divinity on that disgusting monkey... Argh! Arthur fumed internally.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhIx0hnvK4k

"Hanabi, stop! I just protected you! Why are you running?!" Arthur called out as he climbed.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmJDaOWFQG

STEP. STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22ifa3MR2R

Arthur reached the upper landing just as Hanabi reached the far end of the floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirDXpi1E7U

"I'm not stupid... I know what I saw!" Hanabi shouted back over her shoulder.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDBDUelL3lv

"Tsk" Hissed Arthur.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcVMx06wSJ0

TAK. TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmcEhFE88Pg

Hanabi bolted toward the curved stairwell on the right side of the second floor, which led directly up to the main hall on the first floor.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPCbNwknFU3

TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdqh9mSysPr

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgVkZBB76wL

Arthur pursued her relentlessly.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKw24mRZk7

Meanwhile, in the dark alleyway outside the casino's front entrance—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ3PoKu5v2w

STEP—

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJjERpaoNmo

CRNSH...

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDG5YuPzUH7

A boot stepped onto the bed of shattered glass covering the pavement outside.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvNtb1ubmH5

"Haa...." P sighed

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbauyFkVPX5

TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsYS0FcqT6j

TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqFUXoYeuJB

"Haa... haa..." Hanabi panted, bursting through the heavy door into the main first-floor area.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgyhn8hipIB

CREAK..

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaQ5G3gJFe

The panicked murmurs of the crowd sheltering on the first floor gradually quieted down as they saw her.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7mkjpTTBdV

MURMUR... MURMUR...

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVI9dKGlrF

"It's just a girl..."

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6rgGFzSq6S

"What's happening down there...?"

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG7Zu3C3UYc

"Keep quiet..."

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNUEpLnsD08

"Is it over...?"

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmEnyaGSbnC

"Oh my God..."

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZmH8aGy4Vn

TAK. TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXV93uBYmku

Hanabi pushed her way into the dense crowd.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNv0lrogWgB

"Ma'am, are you okay?" asked a security guard, reaching out to place a hand on her shoulder.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpRVlMQckGz

SHFF.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJSqXVfdAbQ

Hanabi brushed his hand off without stopping. "I'm fine..." she said, quickening her pace.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3V812meLUv

TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj6ozCLLTes

TMP. TMP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQxU0U2qIZ0

Arthur pushed through the double doors onto the first floor behind her.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpvtTIlHHZ

His eyes scanned the room, ignoring the nervous stares of the crowd.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWachoHAuib

TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVO8BlcN4T

TURN.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEnPxjXtIP

TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmqerRc1hb

Hanabi glanced back through the crowd and spotted Arthur instantly. Her eyes widened.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy75IcjSbMT

The security guard who had approached her noticed her panicked expression as she turned and hurried away into the crowd toward his left.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡehtQEaQRlu

TAK. TAK. TAK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfwBra6xJU3

The guard turned toward his right, his eyes locking onto Arthur, who was moving swiftly through the hall with singular focus.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtt6zq9vBEI

STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKvvMzmjLqM

PUSH.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPLcaDga4YO

"Hey...!" a woman complained as Arthur shoved past her.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2CDfQCJidD

"Get out of the way—" Arthur growled.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeuvwYs1c48

STEP. PUSH.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPF61DDRmQE

"Hey, watch it!" a man grunted.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdRSSPOVyHM

Arthur forced his way through the guests, shoving anyone in his path.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgnd30sEMsF

The security guard's eyes narrowed.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1MLK5QZSiU

MURMUR... MURMUR...

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZYeVTfTrm

STEP. STEP. STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ06JknYaegl

The guard maneuvered through the crowd to intercept Arthur.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDAsrM4YvHq

TAP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbwF7DzvIO6

CLENCH.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2UE70Ba0vD

He unclipped the holster on the left side of his tactical belt, resting his palm on the grip of his gun on the right.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9yVBd0G15N

STEP. STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡltEak7fIqt

Arthur strode forward, completely oblivious to the guard closing in on his flank.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDY4nqATwmx

They were less than a meter apart.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlS30yck1QF

"Excuse me, sir—" the guard began, pushing past a patron. "Pardon me—"

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoGNVZ8bjT

Suddenly, a guest stepped between them, briefly blocking the guard's line of sight.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1gh98PlSxB

WHOOSH..

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡki1t2a5qPw

The guard's eyes widened.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjY9GrljCj

Arthur had vanished from view. But as the guard turned to his left, Arthur materialized directly in front of him, reaching out and pulling the guard's head in like a sudden embrace.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPnLv7GBdBC

CLICK.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA1bqUTE1wB

The guard's eyes dilated in terrifying shock as Arthur pressed the barrel of a stolen pistol under his chin.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ81TOH8bsjU

PURT.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4e8R1D9c5b

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo8koDeqVF8

Arthur fired three times through the guard's jaw, then let the body collapse to the floor.

SHFF.

STEP.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcPz5AHPssa

Arthur stepped over the security guard as blood pool spread across the floor tiles.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFnm3o4tifP

Panic immediately erupted through the first-floor hall as guests caught sight of the body.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoBwLWVjg5e

"Oh Jesus-" a woman gasped in shock.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYiKnoEtmPW

MURMUR... MURMUR...*

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgWSBY29St7

DRIP....*

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKFz2PL7vRF

The guard lay motionless, his face resting in the pool of blood. His sidearm was gone.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaA4vAFT76e

MURMUR... MURMUR...

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkenYpAbhUc

He could hear the shouting and echoing from the other side.

175Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7DBzwQMDDI

P pushed the door open.
