I've already said this isn't a life simulator!

The man nodded in agreement and walked towards the bathroom... Although their home was small, it was cozy enough for them.

He took off his clothes, revealing his upper body covered in bruises and scars. The man seemed to be a frequent fighter, but considering this was Twilight Street, it wasn't surprising.

He casually tossed the clothes into the bucket, intending to leave them for his wife to wash later, while he stepped into the shower, bent down, and turned on the water valve.

"……Um?"

Almost the instant the water hit his body, a pungent, fishy smell filled his nostrils. Sensing something was wrong, the man opened his eyes and discovered that the water flowing over him seemed to be mixed with a large amount of blood.

What...thing...

Just as the man was still wondering, his thoughts were rapidly fading, and he lost control of his body in an instant, collapsing softly to the ground in a strange posture.

The showerhead above was still faithfully spraying warm water, but the water on the floor was not transparent; it was stained with bright red blood, and the entire shower room was gradually filled with the smell of blood.

slam-la-

The sound of the showerhead echoed in the room. Sometime later, the woman outside the bathroom had also fallen silent. The home, which should have been warm and cozy, was eerily quiet at this moment.

Click——

A crisp sound came from the door, accompanied by the slightly aching sound of the door hinges, as the sound of the torrential rain outside rushed into the room.

pat-

With practiced ease, Xi Wang opened the candy box, fed herself a piece of candy, glanced at the woman lying on the sink, and waved her hand slightly. A pool of water slowly enveloped her body, and the flowing blood gradually dissipated into the water, turning it a pale red.

Then her fingers moved slightly, and the man's corpse in the bathroom was also enveloped in water, and then slowly moved to Xi Wang's side.

Xi Wang nodded after obtaining the two bodies, then turned back into the torrential rain, with the water droplets enveloping the bodies following behind.

slam-la-

The rain was pouring down, but Xi Wang didn't get wet at all. The rainwater would automatically veer away from him just before it hit him, forming a strange "umbrella" that enveloped him. Behind him were about a hundred water droplets containing corpses—these were the people he had eliminated.

Xi Wang returned to the cemetery along the route he had memorized. He had already dug out a large area, which had even formed a small pond due to the heavy rain. However, none of this was a problem. Xi Wang diverted the water away from the pond and then placed the bodies one by one into the pit. He then manipulated the water to scoop up the soil piled up on the side and buried the bodies. His movements were very skilled, indicating that he had done this several times before.

Fortunately, the cemetery here is large enough, otherwise there wouldn't be enough to bury the hundreds of people in [Twilight Street]. Xi Wang is also glad that his control over "water" is strong enough, otherwise this kind of project would probably be difficult to complete.

"Now... that place is probably all that's left."

After burying this batch of corpses, Xi Wang looked at the last small section of the pit. Although it was filled with water due to the heavy rain, it didn't matter; it wasn't a problem.

"........."

Although it seems a bit troublesome, it's something he has to face, and putting it last gives him some time to think and prepare.

He raised his hand, and a small ball of water rested on his fingertip, swaying slightly with his movement. Then, slowly, the originally transparent water ball gradually turned into a deep blue like the sea, and then he held it in his palm.

In that brief moment of thought, he had already made his preparations.

Giving those children a peaceful and quiet death was the only thing he could do at that moment, the only mercy he could offer them.

So he walked toward the sanatorium.

…………

………………

It was late at night, but the torrential rain outside was still pouring down, showing no signs of letting up.

The noise of the rain masked many sounds, such as the faint, almost nonexistent footsteps in the dimly lit corridor.

Xi Wang has arrived inside the sanatorium and cleaned up several rooms... But please rest assured, all the well-behaved children have gone to sleep early, and none of them woke up in the middle of the night. Therefore, each child left quietly in their sleep.

Xi Wang acted swiftly, without inflicting pain on the children. He simply and decisively took their lives, then manipulated the water to envelop their small bodies and transport them outside, preventing their rooms from being tainted with too much blood.

Xi Wang walked silently, carrying a slightly damp scent, searching each room one by one, until he reached the end of the corridor and opened the last room—it was empty.

The room was simply quiet, empty, and dimly lit.

The person living in this room seemed to be gone; the window was open, and the cold night wind carried countless raindrops into the room, wetting the curtains and the floor.

"........."

It seems the mission is now complete.

Thinking this, Xi Wang manipulated the water flow to close the window.

However, at this moment, Xi Wang suddenly stopped.

tick-

Behind me, I heard a soft dripping sound.

It was very faint, almost inconspicuous amidst the noisy rain outside, but Xiwang keenly sensed the constantly dripping water.

"why?"

The man behind me asked this question.

Xi Wang could hear the anger and murderous intent hidden in his feigned calm tone.

Turning around, I looked at him, my gaze lingering on the poorly made mask he was wearing—I wondered if his expression, like the mask, was distorted with anger.

He is dangerous.

Xi Wang thought to herself.

Like a lurking beast, quiet yet full of ferocity, chilling to the bone.

"you are still alive?"

Xi Wang was certain that he had not made a mistake; the "water" he had manipulated had pierced through the other man's neck, definitely penetrating his throat and cervical spine.

But now, he is standing here perfectly fine, and he can even talk to him. The blood hole on his neck has disappeared and seems to have healed.

"I'm asking you."

He glanced out the window, and even through the heavy rain, he could vaguely see countless water droplets encasing corpses in the courtyard. Then, as if suppressing his anger, he emphasized something, his tone somewhat impatient.

"........."

Xi Wang frowned, her fingers twitching slightly as she manipulated the water dripping around him into sharp blades that pierced his heart from below.

Phew——

The knife pierced the man's heart, and bright red blood flowed, mixing with the azure "water".

"Hehe...haha...very good...very good!"

He seemed completely unconcerned about his injuries, simply covering his face with the mask and laughing wildly.

He was still alive, and his aura had not weakened; on the contrary, he had become increasingly dangerous, like an enraged beast.

"I like your attitude; it's so direct and straightforward! Excellent!"

One step forward! The immense force instantly shattered the surrounding water, completely ignoring the "blade" piercing him, and charged directly in front of Xi Wang, his chest still bearing the empty, bloody hole, and threw a punch at Xi Wang's face.

"Come! Unleash your power! Let me see! Let's fight! Let's slaughter!"

"........."

Ignoring the man's seemingly insane words, Xi Wang simply took a half step to the side, turned her head to dodge his fist, slightly raised her hand, gathered it at her waist, and then gently pushed, summoning the azure "water," which transformed into a fierce torrent rushing towards him.

But he withstood it, taking only one step back to forcefully stop the surging water flow, then suddenly waving his hand to interrupt it, and then moving forward again, throwing a punch at Xi Wang.

"That's right! That's it! Keep going! Keep going! If this is all you've got, I'll tear you to shreds!"

He was gradually becoming dangerous—Xi Wang sensed it instantly.

Moreover, he probably wasn't a normal person—that's what Xi Wang thought as she looked at the wall that had been smashed by a punch from the man.

"This is a bit troublesome, I should leave first"—looking at the man who was indiscriminately destroying the area around him, Xi Wang frowned and decided not to stay here any longer.

...I just felt it was inconvenient to deal with this man here, since he still had to control the water spheres to protect the children's bodies...and if this guy continued, the children's original home would be gone.

He stepped back and jumped directly out of the gap in the wall, using the cover of the torrential rain to quickly carry the water clumps towards the cemetery.

"Stop! Where are you going?! Trying to run away?! Hahahaha! Why are you leaving like a stray dog?! Stop! Come on! Face me!"

The man displayed superhuman physical abilities, catching up almost instantly. He cracked the ground under his feet, sending water flying everywhere, and attacked Xi Wang with an almost frenzied pace, forcing Xi Wang to repeatedly distract herself and fight him off.

As for the man's injuries, he seemed completely unconcerned, and they disappeared in no time, just like the wound that Xi Wang had previously inflicted on his heart had vanished at this moment.

He was attacking Xi Wang frantically, destroying everything he could without restraint, as if venting his anger.

Finally, after repeated harassment from the man, Xi Wang arrived at the cemetery, carefully placed the children's bodies in the last pit, and manipulated the water flow to cover them with soil and bury them.

"call……"

Xi Wang breathed a slight sigh of relief.

"Not running away anymore? Very well! Come on! Let's fight!"

The incessant voice rang out again from behind, its fury unquenched even by the torrential rain.

This time, Xi Wang did not manipulate the water to push or repel him. Instead, she dodged to the side and then turned around at an extremely fast speed. With her hand as a knife, she struck the other man's neck. The azure "water" quickly gathered with Xi Wang's movements, transforming into a sharp spear that pierced the other man's neck. It then quickly extended, pressing against the man's body and knocking him back a hundred meters away.

"...Have you made enough of a scene?"

Under the constant barrage of trash talk and harassment from the man, Xi Wang was starting to get a little... annoyed.

After advancing a short distance, thanks to her sense of water, even through the torrential rain, Xi Wang could vaguely sense the man a hundred meters away from her.

With his five fingers together, he used his hand as a knife to draw a line from bottom to top. The water on the ground began to gather with his movement, eventually forming a crescent-shaped "water blade" in a very short time. It quickly broke through the rain curtain formed by the downpour and rushed towards the man who had just managed to stand up.

Before the first water blade had flown very far, Xi Wang quickly made a horizontal slashing motion with his hand, creating another identical water blade. At the same time, he took half a step forward, then launched another water blade, took another half step forward, and repeated this process continuously.

The relentless attacks continued to overwhelm the man. Countless water blades were aimed at the neck, head, and chest—areas that could kill instantly—as well as the shoulders, hips, and knees—areas that could render a person immobile.

This wasn't a battle at all; it was a one-sided crushing defeat. If that man hadn't been able to get up again and again, it would have been a brutal massacre.

Even if he occasionally bursts out with great power to dodge the water blades that would separate his head from his body or cut him in half, when he tries to rush towards Xiwang, Xiwang will raise his hand and summon a gathered stream of water to forcefully knock him down from above, and then repeat the same action.

If this guy's regenerative ability wasn't even more extraordinary than Xi Wang's, and his combat instincts weren't terrifyingly strong, Xi Wang would have killed him long ago, or at least severed his limbs.

Finally, Xi Wang even got bored and annoyed by this useless action, so he raised his hand and made a claw shape. At that moment, the falling rain and the water on the ground paused briefly, and then quickly gathered together, turning into a blue claw that forcibly grabbed the man. Then it quickly split into six blue water balls, one large and five small, which imprisoned the man's body, limbs and head respectively.

Even at this point, the man did not stop resisting. He struggled and his head, submerged in water, kept twisting. Bubbles kept escaping from the edges and gaps of his mask, and you could hear his indistinct curses.

He was still alive, and even the numerous wounds he had sustained earlier had disappeared.

"What exactly are you...?"

Xi Wang looked at the man who was still struggling, his head twisting towards him, and murmured softly. At the same time, he raised his hand, and the azure water gathered in his hand to form a "knife". He held the tip of the knife to the man's neck. He was very curious whether this man could live if his head was cut off.

But in the end, Xi Wang still dismissed the "knife" in his hand.
