Caught off guard—completely and utterly caught off guard!
In Bormann's eyes, Tsubaki Rurikawa had been zero threat. No matter how much she talked back or made threats, he never felt his life was in danger. To him, she was just a weak, fragile little maid. At most, he was fuming because she had mocked his aristocratic pride and shattered his ego. But actual danger?
Even though she had silently slipped into his villa in the dead of night, the blonde man saw her as nothing more than meat delivered to his doorstep. Where was the danger in that?
It wasn't until he saw the pistol, shimmering with a faint lunar haze, that he fell into a state of stunned disbelief. Then, a long-forgotten fear began to sprout. Had a little lamb suddenly turned into a predator?
"Tsubaki, you..."
He was tense, cautious, and suspicious. Even now, he doubted the noble maid's resolve. Is that gun real? Would she actually pull the trigger? Maybe she's just trying to scare me—
BANG!!
"Aaaaahhhhh!!!!"
The other maids in the room let out terrified screams. Tsubaki's muzzle wavered slightly, a sharp light flickering in her beautiful eyes. "Shut up!"
Even when she was being fierce, Tsubaki was captivating—cold, handsome, and lethal. But the blonde brat, Bormann, had no time to appreciate that. He collapsed onto the floor, his teeth chattering. All the cruel, lewd, and psychotic thoughts that had been swirling in his head just moments ago vanished instantly in the face of death. He couldn't even speak clearly.
"Tsubaki... what... what do you want?"
"Killing me here won't do you any good! Even if you kill me, you won't escape! How about we both take a step back? I—I promise I won't ever touch you again! The Rurikawa family... I'm willing to compensate you—"
"I am only here for my Master," Tsubaki smiled. "Master wants the entire Bormann family fortune. Are you willing to offer it up?"
"That—"
"Of course, it's not just the fortune. It's your life, too. Offer them both."
"You—Tsubaki! Don't push me too far!" Even with his life on the line, the arrogant blonde man couldn't stand being toyed with. "A mere fallen noble! Relying on that Mila woman... I don't believe you actually dare to kill me here!"
BANG—
The response was a single gunshot.
!!!
"WAAAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!!!!!!"
Bormann's eyes bulged, nearly popping out of their sockets, webbed with blood vessels. He curled his body into a ball, clutching his crotch with both hands. Sweat poured down his face, which turned a deep crimson like a boiled shrimp. His shrill, agonizing scream pierced the quiet night.
"GAAAAAAHHHHH————————!!!!!"
You... you actually dared—
Pain. An indescribable, explosive agony surged from his crotch to every nerve in his body. The heart-wrenching pain of shattered testicles wasn't just physical; it was a total mental collapse. He knew perfectly well that the girl had just blown his manhood to pieces with a single shot. Everything was gone.
As a man who defined himself by his nobility and his pleasure in toy with women, what was the point of living without his "tools"?
"I'll kill you! I'll absolutely kill you!! Tsubaki Rurikawa, Aaaaaahhhh!!!!" Bormann was losing his mind. He didn't even care about his life anymore. Without his cock, he might as well be dead. He gnashed his teeth so hard they bled, his eyes filled with murderous bloodlust.
"Is that so? Weren't you just drooling over my body a moment ago? Planning to catch me and turn me into your plaything? Now all you want is to kill me? Have you been 'decommissioned' already? How pitiful..."
Her calm tone acting as the final straw, the string in the blonde man's brain snapped. He rolled on the floor, covered in blood, desperately trying to lunge at her but unable to even crawl. He could only let out pathetic, impotent wails.
"Aaaaaahhh!!!! Kill you! I have to kill you! No... torture!! I'll let a thousand hoboes ravage you! I'll make you rot in a hell of despair!!!!"
"Unfortunately, you are the one in hell, not me," Tsubaki replied, indifferent to his threats. She hadn't aimed for a kill shot; shooting him in his vitals was a deliberate choice.
Seeing this "elegant" and overbearing noble aristocrat crawling on the ground like a pathetic worm, drenched in blood and screaming in impotent rage, Tsubaki couldn't help but curl her lips into a smirk.
It was terrifying. When a woman gets ruthless...
The other maids watched Bormann's miserable state, but they didn't care about their arrogant, evil master. Under Tsubaki's aura, they could only huddle in the corner, not daring to breathe.
"You said it wasn't for revenge, but in the end, you're still getting your payback—"
The sudden voice nearly made the terrified maids faint. Who would dare talk so boldly, even teasing this ferocious woman?
To their shock, Tsubaki didn't get angry. Instead, the ice melted, and a shy, girl-next-door smile bloomed on her face like spring. "Master?"
A figure emerged from the shadows. It was Alex.
The maid, who looked like a completely different person just seconds ago, rushed to the boy's side, showing her intimate side. She fidgeted, worried about his opinion. "I just..."
"It's alright, no need to explain. Regardless, this guy was the one who destroyed the Rurikawa family. Wanting revenge is normal, and hating him is even more so." Alex stroked Tsubaki's hair, his tone a bit amused. "I just didn't expect you to be so... brutal, Tsubaki."
"Resentment... yes, I have it. And I loathe that man. But it's also true that I want to help Master seize the Bormann assets," Tsubaki whispered, her supple body leaning into Alex instinctively, her heavy breasts pressing against his arm. "So I left him alive for the transfer... Does Master think I'm cruel?"
"Being cruel to enemies isn't a bad thing," Alex wrapped his arm around the girl's soft waist, pulling her large chest against his own. He grinned. "It's just that you made quite a ruckus. Didn't you notice you've attracted attention outside?"
"Eh? Then I—"
"No need. I've already handled it." Alex glanced through the window at the corpses outside. "The bodyguards, guards, and the butler are all dead. Only some of the maids are left, and I've already put them under control."
"The entire Bormann estate belongs to us now." Alex looked down at the man who was now a puddle of misery on the floor. "Mr. Blonde, second time we've met. This time, not only is your prey my woman, but your fortune and everything you own has been taken by me. Any thoughts?"
"Haa—wheeze—haa—"
Whether it was the pain or the sheer shock, he couldn't speak. Bormann could only stare at Alex with a hateful, impotent gaze, as if trying to engrave his face into his soul.
It's this guy—
This guy stole the woman I wanted! He planned tonight's attack! Even Tsubaki's transformation was his doing, otherwise, she never could have infiltrated my estate!!!
Alex didn't care. Instead, he smugly pulled the seductive maid closer and kissed her warm, cherry lips, tasting her sweet tongue. He smacked his lips in satisfaction. "Truly, thank you, Mr. Bormann. If it weren't for you, I might have passed Tsubaki by. Losing such an incredible girl would have been a real tragedy. Thank you."
AAAAAAHHHHHHHHH!!!!!
Kill him! I want to kill him!!!
Seeing Alex's smug face and the beautiful girl—the one who had just ended his lineage with a single shot—nestled lovingly in his arms, Bormann couldn't control the inferno of jealousy and hatred.
DIE!!!!
"Tsubaki, finish him off," Alex said with a dismissive smirk. "There's no point in continuing to torture a maggot like this. Let's go collect our spoils."
"Mhm—"
Tsubaki's entire heart was on Alex. Her eyes never left her Master as she raised her hand and fired a shot without even looking at her target.
BANG!
After the shot, she went right back to rubbing her body against Alex, whispering sweet nothings into his ear. Bormann died with his eyes wide open, never understanding why he died so helplessly or why these people were so bold.
Having killed Bormann with her own hands, Tsubaki had fulfilled her old promise. Her heart was pounding. She couldn't wait any longer. Her breathing grew shallow. "Master... you said... once the revenge was done... you would have me~"
She was past the point of waiting.
