By the friezes it had on the air outlet, I could see a maximum of 8 people, but there were a few rooms that were closed. There would probably be a few more in there.
The shed had almost nothing. It was basically empty, as far as I could see. It had metallic platforms that interconnected along the entire side up to the second-floor rooms. Having 2 people keeping guard on opposite ends of these platforms. They paced back and forth as they watched through the windows.
The rest of the criminals were all on the ground floor. 2 people were talking isolated in a corner, and 4 stayed around Rin, who was tied to a chair. She had already woken up.
They were making a phone call, and they also made threatening gestures while yelling and constantly cursing to frighten her. That way, it would make it easier for them to ask for what they want with the ransom. Probably they were blackmailing the Kuji family.
I couldn't hear anything they said except when they yelled. It was very distant. I could only stand there watching little Rin's face, who was crying in despair with her hair disheveled. Shaking yourself in denial and fear but unable to break free or do anything.
I was left with pain in my heart, but as long as she was not in danger, I would wait until the best moment to act. That way, I can minimize the casualties that may occur.
'I'm still not strong! I have to be much stronger!' I strengthened that thought while feeling a tightness in my chest. I wish I could turn into the incredible Huck and destroy everything! Get a lot of power instantly. Not having to wait for time to pass. It was distressing! Agonizing! No one would like to see people close to them suffer.
And to make matters worse and make me even angrier. The kidnappers guffaw at her suffering, and her fear seemed to be their toy. As if it were the most fun thing in the world. At this moment, I already wanted to break their necks and crush their hearts. I wasn't so sure anymore if I would stick to my decision not to kill them.
I already take a rope and tie it to the exhaust fan in preparation to descend. I had several essential items and tools in my 'dimensional pocket'. I bought it somewhere or took it from home. It's good to always be prepared for all situations.
Then I unscrew the louvered that covers the air outlet gently, avoiding making any noise.
...
Time passed, and gradually the sun began to set. I stood there like a statue, not making a move, just waiting for the best moment to attack.
During that time, there were quite a few changing in the guard. By now, I knew there were 13 kidnappers in total.
*Bang*
I hear the sound of a gunshot from one of the closed rooms.
I stay curious to know why the shot was fired, but now I have priority on saving Rin, and I can't worry about other things.
1 of them had already gone to the bathroom, and 3 more individuals who were on the ground floor moved to the room where the shot went off. I didn't know what had happened there. But now there were only 4 of them for me to take care of. It was perfect timing.
I wait until they aren't looking in my direction... This is the moment!
I carefully remove the louvered. So I throw the rope that is already attached and descend silently. Thankfully, my body is small and light, which makes everything easier.
Arriving on the metallic platform on the second floor, I pull out a crowbar from 'D. Pocket' to use as a weapon. I didn't have wide varieties.
I then approach in a semi-crouch behind the bandit's back, taking the utmost care.
*Bugh*
I give him a dry blow on the head. And before the body falls, I catch it to avoid noise and attract its colleagues.
I noticed that I had dented his head. 'Oops! I exaggerated the force used. I think he died! if not, he will at least become vegetative for life.' I'm not used to my additional attributes, so I don't have the proper control over my power yet; I need more time to master it.
'Well, anyway, they deserve to die. And it's not like I want them dead. It was just unintentional, Hehe'. My hypocrisy hits hard in the chest again. 'I know this will get me into trouble, but I'll sort it out later.'
Next, I drag the body to a blind spot, grab all his weapons, and store them in the 'D. pocket.'
After that, following the platform, I go to the bathroom door, which is also on the second floor, and knock on it.
*Knock! Knock*
"Grrr! It's busy! I'm shitting!" The criminal screams amidst his grunts of exertion.
*Knock! Knock*
I ignore it and knock again.
"Go into another bathroom! I can't even shit in peace!" He is dissatisfied. Who wouldn't be?
I keep banging on the door, ignoring all of her complaints. It's a good thing the restroom is a little further away. Otherwise, his friends would have arrived with all of this commotion.
"Fuck!... All right, I'll open it! I even had to cut the shit in half! You better have a good reason!" The bandit swears, but in the end, he opens the door. To make matters worse, he didn't even put his pants on while doing this. However, at that moment...
*Bugh*
I smack him right in the middle of the forehead, making him fall back into his own stuff.
[Ding! You up the 'MC level' and gained 2 temporary attribute points!]
I grimace at the stink. I ignore all that mess and leave without even wanting to look at the situation behind me. I didn't want to be traumatized. What a horrible way to level up and die too. I get a chill just thinking about dying in such a way.
With that, I finished off the two watchmen on the second floor. Now I just need to take care of the eleven that are on the ground floor.
So I continued walking along the platform, going to the intersection where the two sides connected, coming up above the 3 criminals. They were standing guard around Rin, who was tied to the chair.
'Add the 2 points gained in END. ' I requested for Fairy-chan. It was the attribute I needed right now.
I got as close to them as I could. After that, I jump on top of one of the kidnappers to break my fall. After all, it was 5 meters high.
At the same time as I fell, I hit him on the head with the crowbar, using all the weight of the fall and the speed I had reached. Thus sinking his skull, making blood spurt from his face orifices as his eyes bulged from the pressure. If anyone saw such a scene in slow motion, they would have nightmares for quite some time.
Luckily, this individual who was brutally killed by me was on Rin's back, thus not exposing her to such a horrible scene.
*Bugh* *Krak*
Without pausing, I continued my movement at high speed. I then hit the second one on the head with the crowbar like I was hitting a baseball. The subject's head turned 180 degrees as he made a face of incomprehension and fear.
The third already had more time to prepare. He turned towards me as he went to draw his weapon, but we were very close to each other, and currently, my speed was 2 times that of a well-trained person.
Without giving him time to draw, I lunge towards him, slamming it right into his hand, breaking it and making him drop the gun. Then I land another one on his neck with a side swing.
*Bugh* *Krak*
With the blow, he lands hard on the ground, clutching his broken throat. He desperately tries to breathe as he chokes on his own blood. He wouldn't last long.
I wasn't controlling my strength, nor did I want to risk them attacking me from behind because they were still conscious.
But for those who didn't want to kill, I ended up exaggerating a lot. This will get me into trouble. Do what!
I quickly go to Rin to untie her.
She wasn't blindfolded, so she watched most of it wide-eyed. 'Shit! I hope she doesn't get traumatized.'
At that moment when I attacked, I couldn't yell at her to shut her eyes. If not, it would draw attention from the other guys, which would be dangerous. Besides not being sure she would listen to me.
All of a sudden, I hear sounds coming from the other rooms. This time I ended up making a lot of noise while taking down these 3 guys. Probably they noticed something was wrong outside and were coming towards me to see what it was.
I took a knife and cut the ropes that bound her.
With that, I pulled Rin into my arms, holding her like a princess and started running as fast as possible. I went towards the windows that were on the sides of the shed.
She accepted everything in total silence, but she was mesmerized looking at my face, even if it was covered. She isn't showing fear or trauma, which I thought would show on her face.
I didn't have time. I wanted to kill everyone inside before they could contact anyone and call for backup, but I couldn't put Rin in danger. So I decided to run away with her in my arms and find a safe place to hide her first.
*Bang! bang*
Behind me, I heard gunfire and the kidnappers swearing because they had let their victim escape.
"Go, get that bitch! Don't let her get away!"
"If we let her escape, the boss will kill us all!"
"Go! Go! Let's run after them!"
