(Kaito’s View)

I was startled by the sudden gunshots below. They were loud enough to cause many of the people and guards on the fourth floor to descend and take care of what is happening below that caused several gunshots.

”What the heck is Kyosei doing?! Is he seriously going to face these many by blowing his cover?!” I muttered to myself as I scratch my head. 

”What are you talking about?” The girl who was following me asked with a frown.

”Nothing. It seems like my other companion who was raiding this place just blow up his cover and is currently fighting head-on to the guards.”

”Alone? Are you serious? He won’t survive the number of people going to attack! Those guys are numerous enough that I don’t think he will survive! Should we go down too and help this companion of yours?”

”No. You will be just bothering him and ruining his plans. He is a quiet guy but he is ruthless. Don’t bother saying you will help, he has a sharper tongue than me. Instead, let us take care against the remaining people in here than ruin someone else’s strategy.

The girl was a little bit confused but she didn’t say much more and didn’t pursue that we help Kyosei with his operation and we continue our exploration.

Once I have taken care of the remaining guards who are left behind, it was easy for me to take care of the captives and free them from their shackles and cages.

Since this was the last floor, there is nothing left for us to do but to gather all the captives together and wait for the situation to clear up below.

”Hey, gather up the people we rescued on this floor and let them bring some of the supplies they can carry while I will go back to the third floor and also gather the others here. Let us meet in the stairs to rendezvous with each other.”

”Okay!”

I hurriedly went down to the third floor and noticed that there are some of the guards investigating something on the third floor. I think they have discovered the dead bodies I have left behind on this floor. They are busy with the investigation so they didn’t notice me creeping towards them. When they are about to notice my presence, I aimed for the kill.

”Urk!”

”Gah!”

The two guards who were investigating one of their comrades who was lying lifeless on the floor also joined him to the afterlife.

I searched around the third floor and saw that no one else is in here which means these two guys are the only ones who decided to investigate this floor.

Once I made sure no one else is there, I quickly went back to the other cells and quickly gathered the remaining people I can gather up and ordered them to bring the guns and supplies they can find on this floor to not waste the things we can use to fight against the people who were guarding this place.

Thankfully, things were proceeding smoothly and the prisoners were not even struggling. After I gathered everyone, I went back to the stairs to reach the fourth floor and saw that the girl I accompanied earlier is already waiting for me.

I quickly beckon her and she quickly signals the others to go down too. She is now holding her brother that she said earlier that needed to rescue. She is successful on this and managed to gather the remaining captives.

”What should we do next?” she asked.

”Since we cannot hide anymore especially with the number of people we have with us.”

I then turned to look at the girls and some men who are holding guns.

”Everyone who knows how to fight using guns, please be the one in frontlines and be the one who should shoot enemies who discover us. If you see someone wearing a beanie and a headphone that looks like horns, be sure to tell me.”

Some of the women who were holding the guns looked at the others and handed them to the ones who presented themselves as capable of using it while the others who do not have problems using it went to the front.

Once they have assembled, I joined them and we went down to the second floor and gather the ones who are kept captive on the second floor.

No gangsters were guarding the second floor, allowing us to gather the people that were held captive on this floor.

I counted the people we have and we have at least 20 people with us who were held captive on this floor. Since some of the slaves who were used as maids by the men here have said that the first floor is the main hall and main area of operations of the gangsters, we decided to proceed carefully to make sure that we won’t have any casualties in case we run into the armed gangsters.

I also ordered them to slowly proceed to the entrance and make sure to go out of this place than to explore the first floor as our main priority is to rescue them and not to fight and use them as human shields.

Thankfully, things on the first floor are quiet. Corpses of people were strewn out on the floor. Most of the wounds they died from are made by the Piyavka Machete of Kyosei. Many have even brutal kills as some have even their eyes and faces gouged out.

Some who can’t take the gore decided to look away while some of them cannot believe what they are seeing.

The girl who was holding his brother approached me as she was looking at the dead bodies.

”Are you sure the guy who was working on the lower floors is operating alone like you?”

”Yes. He is one of the main forces of our group and he is ruthless to the people who were his enemies and can kill anyone if he wanted to. That is why we don’t need to help him. He is a one-man army and he can function alone without any of us helping.”

”If that is the case, why are you guys attacking this place? I don’t see any reason for you guys to attack the gangsters and offend them.”

”They already did once they sent the spies in our group. Once we found out of the moles planted in our group, we have discovered that the gangsters are the ones who sent them and did some minor troubles for us, we were sent here to deal with them.”

”Ah, I just remembered that a few men left the base just earlier to attack a base and start a raid. They are the ones responsible for doing a besiege tactic against groups to make sure they are helpless! You needed to go back and help everyone in your base!

”Ah, if that is the tactic they are planning to use, we are already on the advantage with the enemy.”

...

Just like what Kaito said, the group is in the advantage and was currently dominating the situation.

”What the f*ck is going on? Aren’t we doing the same things we usually do to bring down the other bases? Why is our plan not working right now?” One of the gangsters leading the operation grumble.

”Sir! The second squad has been wiped out! No one is responding anymore!”

”Third squad has fallen too!”

”The first squad is on the verge of collapse too! SIR! WE NEEDED SOME ORDERS!”

The acting leader is now experiencing a headache on what to do as receives messages that the squads doing the besiege are being killed one by one. It was supposed to be a harmonious and easy task for them but it seems the tables have turned against them.

”What choice do we have?! Deploy the remaining troops and pressure the very front! Make sure everything succeeds!”

Although the leader did not show any despair on his face as he seriously keeps the troops going, his internal feelings have been in chaos and turmoil on what to do now.

He decided to call the others on the base for any response on how the main troop is faring and how long before they will arrive here.

But then, he noticed something peculiar with the contacts. He tried to keep on dialing the radios for responses from the others but he can only hear static on the channel that only their group uses to communicate with each other.

He frowned and check if it was the right channel and confirmed that they are the right channel. However, why is it that they cannot hear anything else but only static?

Then, he managed to get a contact to one.

”Hey! Respond to the situation that is happening on the main troops! Over!”

There was silence at first before someone unfamiliar answered his call.

”Everyone is dead, over.,”
