"Okay, okay, stop crying. There are so many people watching in the street!"

Seeing Yotsuba's teary-eyed expression, Nakano Nino rubbed her temples in exasperation.

She couldn't stand seeing her sisters make that kind of expression.

"I believe you, okay? Seriously."

Nino took out a pack of tissues from her bag, pulled out a tissue and stuffed it into Yotsuba's hand, saying irritably.

"I already said it's true! I really didn't lie!"

Yotsuba protested loudly while wiping away her tears.

She clearly remembered that she was walking home when suddenly everything went black and she knew nothing more.

When she opened her eyes again, she was already in a residential area with many passersby!

Although she didn't know why everyone else had the same bewildered expression as her.

"Okay, okay, it's true."

Nino nodded perfunctorily, took Yotsuba's hand, and said, "Let's hurry up. Ichika and Miku are still waiting for us at the supermarket up ahead to buy groceries for tonight. If we go back late, May will starve to death."

Although Yotsuba still felt wronged, she had no choice but to obediently stay by Nino's side.

.......

After a while, the two walked out of the supermarket carrying bags full of groceries.

It was around 2 or 3 pm, the hottest time of day.

Yotsuba no longer cared whether Nino believed her or not.

At that moment, she felt that if she didn't go home and turn on the air conditioner soon, she would turn into a four-leaf clover.

As she was thinking, Yotsuba glanced at Nino beside her and saw that the two of them were in much worse condition than she was.

Nino's physique is not as good as Yotsuba's, who has athletic talent and is like a monster.

Her makeup was completely ruined by sweat, and the black and blue bow hair accessory on her head looked like it had been washed clean, drooping limply by her ears.

But she was still opening the bag, carefully checking to make sure she hadn't forgotten to buy any vegetables, lest her fifth sister starve to death.

Yotsuba looked up at the sky again; the sun was still scorching, and there wasn't a trace of clouds in sight.

"Um... Nino, how about we take a taxi?"

"Phew...you're right."

Nino wiped the sweat from her forehead with the back of her hand, glanced at the heavy shopping bag in her hand, and then at the scorching sun that seemed to be baking the asphalt road. Finally, she gave in.

"If we keep walking like this, we'll both turn into roast meat before we starve to death in May. Let's wait for a bus in the shade at the intersection ahead."

"Yay! Nino is the best!"

Yotsuba cheered, her previously exhausted body instantly filled with energy again, and she pulled Nino toward a side road lined with tall trees on both sides.

This side road is usually not crowded, and now that it's the hottest time of the afternoon, the whole street is deserted, not a soul in sight.

The two walked to the shade of the tree, enjoying the rare coolness, and let out a long sigh of relief.

"Seriously, there isn't a single taxi in sight..."

Nino placed the shopping bag at her feet and looked around somewhat irritably.

"rustle--"

Just then, a strange friction sound suddenly came from above their heads.

"Hmm? Yotsuba, did you hear something?" Nino frowned and looked up in confusion.

"Huh? No, it's probably just the sound of the wind blowing through the leaves." Yotsuba also looked up, but the dense canopy blocked her view, and she couldn't see anything.

"Tick-tock".

A drop of viscous green liquid suddenly dripped from between the leaves and landed right on the asphalt road at Nino's feet, instantly emitting a pungent white smoke and corroding a hole in the road surface.

"ah!"

Nino screamed in fright and pulled Yotsuba back several steps.

"Huh? What's that?" Yotsuba's eyes widened as she stared at the still-smoking crater.

"Hiss—!"

The next second, accompanied by a chilling screech, a hideous monster with a dark green body, sharp bone blades, and compound eyes leaped down from the treetop and crashed heavily onto the street in front of the two!

"A monster?!"

Nino and Yotsuba instantly turned pale, their legs went weak, and they almost collapsed to the ground.

The alien insect's compound eyes, gleaming with an eerie light, stared intently at Nino.

Then a flash of white light appeared.

Before Yotsuba and Nino's horrified eyes, the ugly monster's body began to twist and deform violently.

In the end, she transformed into a girl with long pink hair and a black and blue bow hair accessory!

Her appearance, height, clothing, and even the sweat on her face from the heat are exactly the same as Nino's!

"N-Nina?!"

Yotsuba stared blankly at the two identical sisters who had appeared before her, her mind going completely blank.

What happened?!

Before the two could react...

The insect that mimicked Nino slowly raised its hand and used the exact same voice as Nino, even imitating that slightly arrogant tone perfectly.

"It's so hot..."

After saying that, it looked at the real Nino and a creepy smile appeared on its lips.

"Since it's so hot, why don't you just die here, okay?"

After saying that, a white light emanated from the fake Nino's face again, and she returned to her previous insect form.

Then he raised his hand and slashed fiercely at Shinjiro's neck!

"Nino! Watch out!" Yotsuba screamed and tried to rush over and push Nino away, but it was too late.

Nino closed her eyes in despair.

……

"Start Up!"

A cold, synthesized electronic voice suddenly rang out abruptly.

Immediately afterwards, the deadly bone blade that was supposed to fall did not arrive as expected.

Instead, a violent gust of wind swept in.

Nino couldn't help but reach out and cover her ponytail, which was flying wildly in the wind.

"boom--!!!"

After the storm subsided, Nino and Yotsuba opened their eyes again, still shaken.

The sight before them left them completely stunned.

The terrifying monster that was originally within arm's reach has now flown dozens of meters away into the air!

next second.

"Bang--!!!"

The monster exploded in mid-air, turning into a ball of eerie blue flame, ultimately disappearing completely into the air without leaving even a trace of ash.

"What...what happened?" Nino stared blankly at the firelight in mid-air, her mind a complete blank.

"Nino! Are you alright!" Yotsuba rushed over and checked Nino's body from head to toe. She breathed a long sigh of relief after confirming that Nino was not injured.

"I'm fine... but, that..."

Nino stammered, pointing at the flames in mid-air, unable to utter a single complete sentence.

Yotsuba swallowed hard. "I... I think I just saw... a silver shadow flash by!"

"A silver shadow?"

……

"Time Out!"

In a secluded alley a few kilometers away from the street where the incident occurred.

Accompanied by an electronic voice prompt, the Faiz armor on Kuroe's body changed back from its fully opened silver acceleration form to its basic black and silver form.

"Huff... huff..."

Kuroe pulled out her phone to deactivate her transformation and leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

This is the 8th one already.

Sure enough, I continuously activated the acceleration mode and then used the Crimson Drill to destroy the Zerg.

It takes too much stamina to transform again and refresh the speed boost cooldown after leaving the scene.
