Infinite World: Random Characters, Start with Red Archer

……

"So that's how it is, it was hidden so well..."

"No wonder I couldn't find you using ordinary methods."

Looking at the astonished young man before him, Dio Pucci sneered.

He truly hadn't expected that someone could evade so easily using the methods of an ordinary person.

I had a hunch that this was a weak character, but I never expected it to be such a dramatic situation.

Damn it!

It's impossible not to panic when someone suddenly breaks in.

"Then..."

The person was being lifted up by the neck by the centaur's stand-in, and the feeling of suffocation and weightlessness, with their feet unable to touch the ground, enveloped them.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have lost consciousness from suffocation by now.

"Heh... If you're going to use intimidation, this method is... way too naive."

But the young man was not afraid at all, and spoke in a firm tone.

He understood that if this Stand user wanted to kill him, he could have done so from their very first meeting.

Their current "pretentious" behavior is simply a way to intimidate others.

"Indeed, given our relationship, such methods are a bit too formal."

Upon hearing this, Dio Pucci simply manipulated his stand-in to release the arm that was choking him.

"pat..."

His body slid off the wall, and pain arose in his buttocks and legs. The young man simply patted himself off and stood up.

"How did you find me... I should have tried to cover up any traces that might have led to me being tracked."

He looked at the burly man walking into the shadows and asked in response to the voice.

"Why do you think it's impossible to find? As long as a person is alive, they will always leave traces."

"Not to mention, sometimes things can be resolved by pressing for answers."

"Come on, don't give me that."

The young man was clearly dissatisfied with that answer.

He has used many different identities and rarely appears in public.

Very few people in the government's working group knew their location and appearance.

If the secrets were revealed because of torture, then he should receive an "urgent" call.

That special plane existed specifically for this purpose...

"There's no need to talk about such meaningless things."

"It's not important to you, but it's different to me."

"This means that others might also follow this lead."

"Oh..."

When pressed for answers, Dio Pucci simply chuckled.

He must have put in a lot of effort to pursue her for so long.

After all, as the young man said, he was just an ordinary person hiding behind the scenes.

Since they don't show their faces or have a publicly disclosed address, finding them accurately is not an easy task.

Unless one possesses abilities such as mind reading or future prediction, it would be impossible to find him so quickly.

"It's time..."

Did you know that everyone's time flows in a different direction?

With a single finger pointed, Dio Pucci squinted and spoke.

"what?"

This mysterious reason left the young man unsure for a moment.

But seeing Dio Pucci's serious demeanor made it impossible for him to raise any valid questions.

"Fine... I'll take it as you're telling the truth."

"Then...it's your turn to state your purpose."

"I can't dwell on this for the time being," the young man said seriously, sitting down on the chair next to him.

"That's quite an arrogant attitude..."

"You've already come to my door, what else can I do? Rely on someone else to save me? That's impossible..."

Although he had taken the best possible measures, he felt that they were not necessary at the moment.

"Hmph, it's good that you have the self-awareness."

Seeing the young man's "spoiled" appearance, Dio Pucci also believed that he had no power to resist.

"You make it sound so nice, but you're actually not that easy to deal with Aizen and Altaïr either..."

"Otherwise, they wouldn't have come looking for me."

The young man was unfazed by the strong man's domineering attitude and was not intimidated by the situation.

The other party's behavior was merely an attempt to seize control of the conversation.

This means that even in the war of resistance, this person was not confident of completely winning.

The variables involved are, of course, the other participants and characters in the story.

Aizen, who had previously demonstrated special powers, was the first to be affected.

He was also convinced that it must have been during the Thousand-Year Blood War.

In terms of power, this is Aizen Sosuke at his strongest.

If the Stand user in front of me, who possesses the Fusion series, truly had overwhelming power, he wouldn't be so humble as to come to me seeking refuge.

Of course, the possibility that the other party is concealing their strength cannot be ruled out...

After all, saving effort is a normal thing among participants.

Nobody wants to reveal too much information; they'll keep it hidden until the very end.

Why kill someone yourself if you can use someone else's hand? Unless it's absolutely unavoidable.

"Then let's have a proper talk."

He was unimpressed by the young man's defiant stance.

Anyway, once Aizen is dealt with, he can kill this participant who is just an ordinary person at any time.

(Go ahead and show off...)

(If you think you're the winner, you're getting ahead of yourself.)

Looking at Dio Pucci's expression, he could guess what the person involved was thinking.

By gently placing a hand in the hidden settings, a means to reverse the situation has been laid.

If he plays his part properly, he can still win this time even as an ordinary person.

Moreover, given this disparity in circumstances, the subsequent rewards may be quite substantial.

The mere thought of defeating a stronger opponent was enough to satisfy him.

This kind of "arrogance," which is almost a belief that one will win, is a common characteristic of many participants.

With their own ulterior motives, both of them were making their own plans.

"Ha ha ha ha..."

"Hmph hmph hmph..."

273. "Don't speak so arrogantly, or it will only make you look weak..."

"Is this your despicable tactic?!"

"Clang!"

Alice glared angrily at the enemy ahead and roared.

She found it strange that Altair hadn't made any moves these past few days.

Then, at some point, she suddenly noticed Mami's "weakness" and realized something was wrong.

Alice herself eventually realized it too…

His own power seemed to be not as easy to use as before.

It was as if they were being restricted or suppressed in some way.

Based on this clue, she roughly understood the reason.

Now, with Mami Tomoe personally coming to their door, she encounters resistance from Selesia and Meteora, and is now in a fierce battle.

"Bang Bang Bang!!!"

The muskets kept firing, but Meteora easily conjured a blue light shield in front of her to block them.

Then she emitted a faint white light and murmured words that were completely incomprehensible.

"What is this?!"

Mami Tomoe was suddenly frozen in place, unable to move even a finger.

"Please stop struggling. There is no chance of winning against us now."

Those blunt words were arrogant, but Meteora was simply stating the facts.

"Clatter!?"

"Uh!"

The spear was shattered, and Alice looked on in astonishment. She stared at Serega, who was clad in armor and looked like a Valkyrie, and trembled.

The difference in strength is too great...

It wasn't like this before...

(Could the Creator have such a profound influence over His/Her creations?)

It was precisely because they wanted to find out the reason for Jasmine's decline that they recklessly launched an attack.

But now, captivated by Serega's new demeanor, she has come to a profound realization of its meaning.

Such growth in such a short period of time is something that no individual could easily accomplish through creation.

It must have been "God" who strengthened it.

"Give up."

After knocking Alice to the ground, Serega pointed the beam blade at the bridge of her nose and declared.

But what they were met with was the other party's unyielding attitude.

Meanwhile, Mami Tomoe was bound to the ground and unable to properly utilize her magical powers.

"I have sealed the flow of magic within your body, and it will be difficult for you to use magic freely for a short time."

Meteora used a very targeted magical power when she looked at the magical girl kneeling on the ground.

She has already read most of the works circulating in the market.

Even a "rising star" like Mami Tomoe has the corresponding character settings imprinted in her mind.

The Soul Gem is the true source of life; any other damage to the body will not be a major issue.

"Really... It's not good to run off on your own, Lady Alice, Lady Tomoe Mami."

Just then, Serega and Meteora looked up and saw the enemy who had suddenly appeared.
