Chapter POV: Josephine Benelli

"Jas, there's two further to the left."

"Okay."

My sister then drew her compound bow and took a step out of the hallway. Carbon fiber-tipped arrows pierced the skulls of the humans pinning them against a wall.

Most compound bows had a maximum draw weight of 60 pounds. Jas, being superhuman, uses a compound bow like a short bow thanks to her arm strength.

[No matter how many times I see it, you guys are just cheaters,] Bella commented in annoyance.

"Oh stop it Bella. Weren't you ranked 4th in the FIDE World Chess Ranking? You are pretty amazing!"

[Jo, you both look like supermodels, have IQs above geniuses, and have won in virtually every category in your respective sports! I mean, come on! You took first place in the European Fencing Confederation's women's U23 epee, foil and sabre! Apologize to the common people you cheat!]

Unable to hold back my laughter, I chuckled as I heard her complain. Jas and I were moving towards our target under Bella's guidance.

"Bella, if you were to judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it would spend its entire life believing that it was stupid," my sister added.

[Hmph. Whatever. The only thing I can brag about are my boobs. I'm still bigger than most of you.]

"Haha, but have you seen Liv's? Hers are huge! My breasts look like raisins compared to hers!" I exclaimed.

[You know I can hear you gossiping about me, right?] a calm voice said.

Bella asked curiously. [Liv, you must know how big you are in southerner measurements, right? Are all northerners as big as you?]

[I'm slightly bigger than most. I am taller than the average Northerner.]

[Not that. Your boobs. How big are they?]

[...]

Jas then held up her hand, indicating that there were armed guards along our path. She held up three fingers, then gestured to the left with two fingers held up.

'Okay, two bad guys on the left and one on the right.'

I gave her a quick nod, then ran at full speed down the narrow hallway. I raised my fencing saber in my right hand and my parrying dagger in my other hand.

"What?"

"Intruder!"

An arrow quickly pinned the guy on the right against the wall. He didn't even have time to scream. With a quick lunge, I plunged the tip of my blade into the next man's heart. The edge of the weapon slid easily through his chest to the back of his torso.

Avoiding his spine, I met little resistance. The man's eyes shook as his blood gushed when I yanked out my sword. The other man beside him swung a short one-handed axe and was about to strike me from the side.

[38F.]

[38F? 38F! Take some up your asshole! I am only 32DD and I already have back problems! You guys are all freaks!]

My stance broke as I giggled uncontrollably as Bella began to curse in Portuguese. As amusing as it was, I was a second too slow to block the incoming axe.

Fortunately, an arrow slammed on the shaft of the man's ax shattering it. Another arrow flew and buried itself into my assailant's temple, killing him instantly.

"Jo, focus."

"But Jas, 38F! 38F! How big is that?! Do you think darling likes them huge?"

I put my arms in front of me as if hugging a tree.

"Maybe this big? Liv was amazing!" I praised in admiration.

"I don't know. My body is already his, husband should be satisfied with that," my sister retorted.

[This is Robyn, hostiles neutralized. Target is not here]

[Got it. Head to the basement next Robyn. Continue planting bombs along the locations I marked].

[What if I meet someone Bella?]

[Except children, then kill them all,] the Brazilian heartlessly instructed.

[Got it.]

'Ugh, watching Robyn change was so creepy. Normally, she is extremely loud, but she becomes absolutely stone-cold when she works. She is way too different!' I thought.

[Thank you. That means they moved the kids upstairs. Liv, did you manage to destroy the garage?]

[Yes, Bella, I destroyed all the vehicles here. There were only humans.]

Jas and I left the white corridor and came to a large room. The girls and I were attacking a hospital run by Trinity. Yakuza and Wraiths were present as employees and guards. Lilly said there was no need to spare any of them.

"Jo, this is the location marked on the map. {Imaging} X-ray."

Jas tapped her GRI earpiece as she leaned against the wall just outside the door, her eyes glowing green.

"Bella, we have reached our destination. I see fourteen humans. Four of them have weapons."

[Wow, your new {Fate} is so handy. Seeing through walls is OP. Jo, can you check if there are reapers in there?]

While Jas could see through walls with various types of vision thanks to {Imaging}. She could not see Reapers with that ability. Since we barely showed up on mirrors or cameras, it seemed that {Imaging} worked on a similar principle.

"Give me a moment. {Listen}."

I focused my hearing and counted the number of breaths and heartbeats. One feature unique to Reapers was that our hearts beat many times slower than a human's.

Slow enough that heart monitors would think we were dead. Breathing, on the other hand, was done by muscle memory, so a reaper would breathe even when she technically had no need to.

"Ten, twelve, sixteen. There are two reapers in there. I have no idea if they are Wraiths or Phantoms."

[Princess, are you busy? I can hardly help since this hospital is not connected to the Internet,] Bella asked our teammate.

A haughty, melodious voice joined the conversation.

[I am a bit preoccupied at the moment. Jas and Jo can handle it. Just make sure no one survives.]

Unlike the rest of us, the sounds of fierce battle echoed from Lilly's comm line. As our heavy hitter, she was in charge of dispatching the Reapers.

According to her, any Reaper associated with Trinity was considered a traitor and could be summarily executed by Phantoms and above.

While it might have been fair to give everyone an equal chance, life has never been fair. If we did not kill our enemies, we would be killed instead. There was no right or wrong. Just murderers getting what they wanted because they had more power.

"Roger that. Let's go Jo."

"Go. {Listen} cancel."

Jas kicked in the door and threw a stun grenade inside. She took cover outside the room as the grenade exploded with a loud concussive blast. Screams from the children made the situation even more chaotic.

My sister and I then rushed into the room and attacked the guards. I targeted the Reapers while she targeted the Yakuza. The Reapers were still disoriented when I got within striking distance. But unlike humans, reapers could fight on instinct alone.

The one to my left was an African woman with her hair in a bun. She manifested a glowing staff and cast a spell.

"{Cast} Fireball!"

I ducked and threw my parrying dagger at her right eye. Her attack scorched my blazer and burned me from shoulder to neck. Though it hurt, my counterattack ended the Wraith's life as my secondary weapon lodged itself in the back of her brain.

Not wanting to waste another second, I lunged to stab the other reaper before he could recover. But instead of flesh, my blade met fierce resistance.

"What? Scales?!"

Losing all my momentum, I did a backflip and put distance between the trinity reaper and me. He covered his face with his arms, but his muscle fibers slowly tore at his clothing. The man's skin turned yellow and hardened like granite.

Less than a moment later, the reaper extended its claws and smiled at me. Originally of human form, he now looked like a two-meter dragon newt or a draconian from medieval fantasy tales.

I noted the position of each child behind me. Since there were no more arrows flying, it must mean that Jas was finished on her side.

The Trinity Reaper didn't waste any time and attacked me. His now reptilian appearance, yellow scales, and forked tongue showed the Soulform of his {Fate}. It might look intimidating, but I also wasn't the same as before. The girls and I had all evolved to the next level.

"{Announce}. KYAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!!!!"

The fourth level of {Listen} was {Announce}. It gave me the ability to increase the vibrational energy of any sound wave in my vicinity. It effectively allowed me to turn a single shout into a sonic cannon. My amplified scream would be a hundred times louder than a plane taking off.

It wouldn't kill them outright, but it would stun them for a moment. The lizard man couldn't move as he tried to protect his ears while screaming in pain.

I lunged at it and plunged the blade of my fencing sword into his open mouth. Unhindered, the point of my weapon plunged upward through the root of the mouth and into the reaper's brain. Its flesh might be tougher than normal tissue. But it was still softer than metal.

As my blade protruded from the back of the reaper's skull, I noticed that the blade was badly worn. Blades, no matter what type, dull in battle. No matter how careful you were, it was inevitable, the only exceptions being manifested {Fates} and soulgears.

I didn't even bother to draw my weapon, as it was useless at this point. I turned to see the horrified faces of the children in the lab gowns. They were of various ethnicities and ages, with the oldest looking no older than twelve.

"Jo, you went too far again," Jas chastised.

Knowing that I had neglected to listen to her teachings once more, I stuck out my tongue and replied jokingly.

"Isn't that fine, sis? Starting next week, we will only be using guns. I will take care of my weapon then."

My sister then put her hand to her temple as she shook her head.

"My goodness, how childish you are."

I then ran to hug her as I teased her. "Lighten up sis, what will darling say if you act like this."

Ignoring my words, my sister turned to the children as she announced in a loud voice.

"Haru Miroku. Haru Miroku are you here?"

"Lady, will you save us from the bad men?" a Slavic looking child asked.

"Polish? Jo, your turn."

"Okay. {Interpret}. Hello everyone! We are here to save you from the bad guys. Is Haru Miroku here?"

An Asian child who looked like Aki stepped forward cautiously.

"Pleased to meet Haru, we are friends of your sister, we have come to take you home."

"You're taking me to Onee-chan? Is she okay?"

I nodded and explained to the other children that we would take them back to their families.

"Bella, this is Jas, target secured."

[Roger that. Go to the basement and regroup with Liv and Robyn. I will send your pickup. Princess, are you done?]

[Yes, I am. Blow the place up, Bella].

[Roger that.]
