After successfully obtaining the Skullshatterer, they then left the battle area. From the beginning their target was only one, which was to bring the already defenseless Skullshatterer, the rest was none of their business. With the help of W, this mission went smoothly without any obstacles. The Reunion army could leave easily without the slightest disturbance from the joint force.
But not for W, Amiya prioritizes his troops to help Hoshiguma against W. Not only that, Hoshiguma secretly deliberately stall for time so that Chen can come to his aid.
"Retreat! Everyone, gather! Let them go! If it continues, the enemy will destroy our army! We can't let that happen. If reinforcements come. This Reunion army is not after us! Our priority is to keep the operator safe! Sniper, stop shooting at the fleeing Reunion troops! Focus on helping Madame Hoshiguma!" sahut Amiya's.
"It sucks!" Hoshiguma looked annoyed.
"Not bad, not bad. You really managed to withstand my attack. But, how much can you take?" said W.
"Depends on how long you can hold on! Chen, hurry!"
Long wait, Chen finally came with his troops. They then surrounded W from all directions, closing off all access exits that could otherwise be used to escape.
"The woman's siege!" sahut Chen's.
"...We meet again, Madam." greet W with a small smile.
"You won't get out of here. Everything you've done to Lungmen, I'll double back."
"Oh, creepy. But I'm not here to play with you." replied W. W then turned to Amiya and said, "Amiya, catch." he seemed to pick up something then threw it at Amiya.
"I? This.. phone?" amiya said after catching the object. The object given by W is a mobile phone.
"really. Someone wants to talk to you."
".....?!" Amiya confused.
"Well, my mission is done. I almost forgot, I have something for you, ma'am. See you soon." W again threw a foreign object at the crowd.
Thinking that W is going to blow them up, reflexes.they run far and get down to take cover from the explosion. But no explosion occurred, it was just a flashbang, which was then used by W to escape from there.
"Revelation!" exclaim Chen.
"Near bomb?! No, it's just a flashbang! Don't let him fool you!" amiya.
"...Be late. He has gone. He's very fast. He just needs a little distraction to get past our defenses. Also, be careful with the thing you sword for. It could be.." Chen replied.
"This is. like a regular cell phone. Or maybe.." looked closer, it turns out the phone is still in a connected state. Without the slightest bit of suspicion, Amiya raised the call and began to speak, "Hello..?"
No one answered his call. Amiya then made another call, again, and again. Finally, someone answered the call. When she heard his voice, Amiya was shocked. The one who answered her call was Misha.
"Is that.. Amiya?"
"Misha! Tell me, where are you?! I'm.."
"Amiya's.."
...*****...
Shortly after that.. Amiya heard the voices of two humans who looked so panicked. From the way they spoke, they seemed to be saving someone in critical condition. Whatever their efforts, they were all in vain. From that voice, Amiya knew that the man could not be saved.
"Damn..!! Why. even if we're all infected.. Rhodes Island... Why are they doing this to us?!" reply to a woman B.
"We are always abandoned from the beginning! We have no way out. There is nothing at all!"
"Don't die! Don't leave me! We promise.we promise to go home together!"
"Hiks. big brother.j - don't.."
...*****...
"You hear that voice..?" ask Misha.
"Reunion.. infected?"
"I remember now. No, I never forgot him. I just don't want to remember. No doubt, it was Reunion who destroyed my home. But. we brought it ourselves. Back then, I saw my brother, being dragged before my eyes. He called me, crying for my name, but I ran away and hid in my room. By the time he found me, he had sacrificed a lot. Even though she still loves me, I'm scared, and I run away again. But now I understand. Everything he did, he just wanted to give the pain felt by being infected every day to the oppressors. And now, I'm part of them. It's time I atone for my sins."
"Misha, don't be rash! No matter how you were treated in the past, you can always change.."
"It's no use. What can I change? Because I was one of those who had closed their eyes. After becoming infected, I was finally able to see clearly. How normal people treat the infected is how the infected treat normal people. They deserve it."
"No.."
"All this is nothing more than harvesting the evil that grows from the seeds of the evil that I have planted. This torture is my karma. But why..why? Why did it happen to him, even if he didn't do anything wrong?! The mistake is coming as an infected person. She's so young, she just helped me with homework! If only I could have protected him back then.."
"Misha, relax! You never hurt anyone else! It's not all your fault!"
"From the beginning, who is innocent?!"
"....."
"The only thing wrong is the label given to the infected. If this is a circle of vengeance.firm it to me, who started this tragedy..?! If Ursus had never treated the infected like monsters..What reason would everyone hate Ursus?! Who decided the infected should suffer like this?!"
"Misha.. Skullshatterer is dead. You can come back to us now. I promise, we'll.."
"...Amiya, I have found my answer. I'm an infected. I'm standing with the infected."
"Don't.."
"Yes, Amiya. You're also an infected person, you should be able to understand."
"really. I'm like you, just like everyone else in Rhodes Island. We all understand how you feel. But, Misha, even if you accept yourself, it won't change who you are! Wait there, I'll find you!"
"Don't come here."
"...Misha! Where are you.."
"You're right, Amiya. You're so right. I just feel guilty. Guilty because I was too weak. But I've decided. Although this is just a small step, this is a step I must take. I'm sorry, Amiya. Ii'm sorry. Being infected is part of Reunion."
Seriate.
