Chapter 36: Perfect Creature Blood slid down the back of his hand, Fani...
Blood flowed down the back of his hand. Fani Valentine looked expressionlessly at the thin man lying unconscious on the ground. This was the fourth robber he had encountered.
This place is shabby, backward and has no morals.
Fani Valentine felt his heartbeat quickening, and the feeling of being out of control made him dig his nails into his palms, and the pain brought him peace.
Something is wrong...
Why can't he go back?
Fanny Valentine found that no matter what he used to clamp himself, he could not successfully jump back to his original world. The drunks on the street were amused by his antics, as if they were watching a brainless clown.
The problem is that woman, there's definitely something peculiar about her.
Fani's mind was working rapidly, trying to connect the fragmented things as much as possible to see if he could find any clues.
His Stand ability can pull enemies into a parallel world and allow them to encounter his alter-ego. If the two come into contact, they will be annihilated.
Normally, events in a parallel world would roughly mirror those in the main world, and any deviations would be insignificant. For example, in the main world, he was ambushed by a brown-haired woman and nearly killed. But in the parallel world, he might have spotted the enemy beforehand and summoned the guards to shoot the woman.
But no matter how big the deviation is, the location where the incident occurred and the core characters will basically not change.
For example, in every parallel world, he should stay in the same place, thinking about the election.
But now, he has come to Britain in 1880 and set foot in slums he has never seen before.
All of this... could only be described as incredible. And even more incredible was that he couldn't go back.
No matter how hard he tried, even if he tried to hold himself back amidst the laughter of the crowd, he still could not return to the main world smoothly, and D4C could not take him to other parallel worlds.
So the problem lies with the killer.
He had no choice but to turn back and pray that the girl was not dead. If she died, he might be trapped here for the rest of his life.
But luck always favored Fanny Valentine. Not only was the woman not dead, she was alive and well. There was also a sinister-looking little devil beside her, who was trying to persuade her with childish and crude means.
"What will you do after you successfully kill that blond man?"
"have no idea."
"I don't know?" The boy next to Mary shouted exaggeratedly: "Mary, why don't you follow me?"
"?"
"I'm all alone... and I don't have any good friends." The boy lowered his eyebrows, looking pitiful. "Having you accompany me on the road will make me feel more at ease."
Fanny Valentine, who had already seen the dangers of the slums, naturally would not believe the other party's nonsense. This kid was obviously not simple.
Was that woman's name Mary? Such a common name, maybe it was just a pseudonym she casually coined.
How could they have been brought together in such a short time? Fanny Valentine huddled in the shadows, pondering this question. His reasoning ability told him that the boy probably knew something.
He probably realized from some incident that Mary was quite skilled and wanted to use her as a free bodyguard.
Fani thought Mary would refuse, but she nodded and really agreed: "Okay."
Not only Fani, but even DIO was surprised
This woman is either too smart or ridiculously stupid.
Fani and DIO both prefer the latter
"That's great!" The blond kid hugged the woman in front of him. Although he was young, he pretended to be affectionate. "Thank you, Mary. I don't know what I would do without you."
This kid... Fani Valentine felt that he would become a big disaster in the future.
At such a young age, she uses her beauty to get others to work for her. When she grows up, she might be able to gather a large group of people to do evil.
Mary felt the other person's hot breath spraying on her collarbone, and the other person's soft and beautiful golden hair rubbed against her neck. Mary felt itchy and uncomfortable, so she pushed the other person away.
This trivial matter nearly made Dio lose his temper. What? Was this woman disliking him, Dio?!
But when he saw the uncomfortable expression on the woman's face, he felt better.
It turns out that she is a woman without a man, and she would even feel shy when hugged.
Fani took in all these details. It seemed this woman wasn't a professionally trained assassin. Her methods were unstructured, each strike more agile and deadly than the rigidity of military training. However, she also had a weakness: she was completely defenseless against sight and tracking. Perhaps... this woman misunderstood him. Fani thought to himself: This woman would be most valuable under his command.
He is confident that he can tame Mary
With this in mind, Fani had no intention of hiding any further. Taking advantage of the moment the two men were conversing, his Stand, D4C, floated behind Mary like a ghost and, before she could even notice, hurled its coat at her. As expected, D4C, previously a necrotic machine, successfully activated itself again.
DIO never expected that the guy he was sure to defeat would disappear in front of him the next second.
He even suspected he was dreaming
If he hadn't seen a strand of brown hair stuck to his shirt, he would have thought he was going insane.
What exactly happened? There seems to be a man behind Mary? And then... clothes? Is this the supernatural event described in the book?
Dio clenched his fists, looking at the dirty, muddy path, he gritted his teeth and growled, "Fuck!"
The world jump was successful, but Fani was not happy because things went as he expected. Instead, he immediately pulled a few others with him and came to the main world.
Sure enough, when the woman saw him, she attacked him as if her hunting instinct had been aroused.
The three big blue rabbits protected their owner behind them, blocking the three presidents tightly, but it was still no use.
She once again gave Fani a surprise and a shock
Agile as a ghost, the brown-haired woman remained at ease even under the siege of three doubles. Although a flesh-and-blood creature, she found safe spaces amidst the impenetrable attacks like a boneless snake.
Every time, she could avoid the fierce fists without any danger, like a dancer dancing on a tightrope. Even in the fierce fighting, her expression remained as calm as a still pond.
Just as one of the big blue rabbits kicked Mary, she fell backward, her arms and palms touching the ground. In that brief moment, barely enough for anyone to blink, the counterattack began.
With his legs together, he launched a fierce kick at the double's abdomen like a rabbit kicking an eagle. The tall double was actually kicked straight back and smashed into the ceiling! A bloody hole appeared on the left side of Fani's own abdomen that could not be healed.
The self in the parallel world dies.
In a situation where three against one is already a loss, how can two against one have any hope of winning?
The two presidents looked at each other, and determination appeared in each other's eyes.
The parallel self rushed towards Mary without hesitation, and the other party did not miss this opportunity and stabbed the dagger directly into the president's heart.
The self in another parallel world died again.
The big blue rabbit and the president used up their last bit of strength and hugged the weapon of war, one in front and one behind.
Conditions for activating the Stand ability:
They were ready to be teleported to the British slums again, but Fani never expected that another different world would appear before their eyes again.
This time, unlike last time, they didn't fall together. They were only a few hundred meters apart, but what they encountered was completely different.
The man Fani met shouted that bigamy was illegal, but on Mary's side, she encountered even stranger, inhuman beings.
Mary's heart tightened when she suddenly appeared in mid-air, but her body instinct made her adjust her body shape as quickly as possible and landed smoothly like a cat.
In the dark night, Mary began to search for Fanny Valentine by the moonlight. However, her actions aroused the interest of a strange man.
In Kaz's tens of thousands of years of knowledge, there has never been an ability to make people appear out of thin air.
Is this a human ability, honed through long evolution, or perhaps technology? Kaz thought, since Wamuu and Aisydisi were talking to the Ripple Warriors below, he had to find some fun in his spare time.
The woman nimbly spun a few times in the air before landing safely beside him. The woman was covered in blood, and the strong smell of blood gave Kaz a different theory.
"Human?" He looked at the woman walking around with a dignified look and added, "Or a vampire?"
The woman ignored him and instead frowned, searching around as if she was looking for something.
It was always him, Kaz, who ignored these ants, but he never thought that there would be a day when he would be ignored.
This feeling was even more unpleasant than he had imagined. To dare to ignore Kaz, one must have the strength to impress him.
Blocking the woman's way, Kaz looked down at the swirl of hair on her head and did not repeat the question he had just asked.
"Did you see a man with golden hair?" The woman did not play by the rules. She was not as scared as Kaz had expected. Instead, she looked up at him without any fear in her eyes.
This guy, wouldn't he think of himself as one of the same kind? Kaz thought.
Mary couldn't understand why the man remained silent and blocked her path. His clothing resembled traditional Indian clothing, so she spoke up, seeking help. Unfortunately, not only did he not respond, he actually attacked her.
A large palm came towards her, and Mary couldn't dodge in time, and her arm was pinched by the fingers bent like eagle claws.
Kaz felt that the other party had a comfortable body temperature, and it seemed that he was not a cold vampire transformed by the Stone Mask.
but……
Kaz lowered his eyes, looking at the back of his hand, where it had been cut by the knife. His skin, unlike humans, was extremely difficult to damage. Similarly, his strength was several times greater than that of an average person. If he, Kaz, refused to let go, the weaker one would have no choice but to cut off his arm to survive.
Yet this woman had similar strength to rival him... She couldn't be human.
Neither of them gained any advantage over the other, and both had bloodstains of the same size on their arms.
Kaz squinted his eyes and looked at the wounds on both sides that were healing at the same speed. A somewhat absurd but unexpectedly reasonable idea came to his mind.
"You are...the Daughter of the Pillar?"
If they weren't from the same race, Kaz couldn't think of anyone else who had the same strength and recovery abilities as them.
Could it be... that he hadn't completely wiped out his own kind back then? Was there something left? Kaz began to recall memories from tens of thousands of years ago. Aside from the Pillar Men's inability to touch sunlight, everything else was perfect. Even with such distant memories, he could still recall them with unerring accuracy.
He remembered a male tribesman attacking him first, followed by all the Pillar Men. But without the Stone Mask's strength, they were even weaker than Kaz. Relying on his natural fighting skills, he killed them all. When he returned to the cave, all he could hear was the resounding cries of two babies.
He and Ai Sidisi took them away and began their journey to find the red stone.
He was exhausted at the time and had indeed not carefully checked whether there were other people of the same tribe in the cave, so it made sense that the other party was the daughter of the Pillar.
"Master Kaz, aren't you leaving?"
Wamuu and Aisidisi jumped up from the ground and jumped to his side, asking humbly.
He didn't answer immediately.
With Santana dead, there was a vacancy in his team. Judging by the woman's attire, he knew she wasn't the newly awakened Pillar Maiden. If she surrendered, Kaz would be able to learn more about this world faster, find the Edge Redstone he sought, and even gain a valuable ally.
If only this orphan wasn't as rigid-minded as those guys in the past...
"Woman, do you want to overcome your weaknesses, stand in the sun, and become a perfect creature?" Kaz spoke.
Wamu was a little surprised why Kaz suddenly said such a thing, while Aisidisi reacted immediately and looked at Mary with disbelief in his eyes.
Emotion finally appeared in the other's eyes, but it was not the emotion Kaz expected.
"Can't you stand in the sun? You are actually... afraid of the sun?" the woman said in an incredible tone.
