Death League 101: I'm Dead In 10 Minutes!-Chapter 54: “Midnight Hunting Spree (28): Human Skin Boutique”
Leinster immediately swung his chains and the chains swiftly blocked the attack.
Clang!
Leinster’s pupils were only a chain away from the sharp thing—
It was a palm-sized knife, likely a pocket knife, but its strength was nowhere near an ordinary pocket knife!
Leinster’s small palms trembled and he couldn’t parry the knife, only slightly deflecting the attack’s projection.
Tak!
The knife nearly scratched Leinster’s cheek by a mere inch before plummeting straight to the floor.
With a sharp scratching noise, the knife was actually embedded into the hard floor, not scratching it lightly like Leinster thought.
Seeing this, Leinster shuddered on the spot, sweat dripping down his small face.
Damn. If that knife touched his head, maybe this body’s skull would have been pierced through!
Leinster felt as if an unknown assassin was targeting him in the dark with knives and other sharp weapons lurking menacingly, ready to pounce at him.
Leinster tugged at Otomen Lover’s hand and quickly signalled her to get closer to Hyo Eun.
"We need hel (her) plotection! (Protection)!"
Otomen Lover also sensed their dangerous situation and she swiftly carried their things and rushed towards Hyo Eun, not forgetting to snatch Leinster’s tongue robe that he left on the floor.
This thing could protect them at a critical moment!
Hyo Eun was engaged in a fierce battle with the fashionable woman when she noticed two people approaching from the edge of her vision.
Seeing the two people’s pale faces, Hyo Eun’s heart skipped a beat.
Did someone secretly attack the little boy while she was away?
Did this woman lure her away just to let others deal with the little boy?
Hyo Eun felt a nameless fire burning fiercely in her heart.
These people! They had once harmed the unborn child in her belly and now, they wanted to target another child!
Hyo Eun’s obsession was burning through her senses and she felt that she was about to lose her mind when Leinster’s crisp voice floated to her ears.
"Uh! Let us...help you!"
Deal with this annoying auntie and then escape with the big boss!
Leinster’s abacus was crackling loudly and without hesitation, he sucked in the lingering emotions in the air.
Fear, anger— ah, cross the anger one. No need for fear emo too.
Okay, then next...sorrow, sorrow— hm? Why was the [Sorrow] emotion coming from the big shot?
Leinster felt it more keenly and discerned that the specific emotion was heartache and pity.
Wait, there was another taste mixed in...
Maternal love?
This combination...
It was bittersweet.
Leinster’s eyes lit up and he almost drooled.
What a novel taste! He had never tasted such a complex emotion before!
Leinster was secretly dancing in his mind as he watched his Emo Gauge grow rapidly.
[Sorrow Gauge: 150 Emo]
[Love Gauge: 150 Emo]
Oh damn, that Love Gauge was filled so quickly.
But Leinster chose the [Sorrow Store] instead and immediately saw a new recommendation.
[Highly recommend—
Level 1 Tear Cannon!]
[With only 100 Sorrow Emo, you can blast your enemy away with a gush of tears!]
[Level 1: leave bruises and surface injury, blasting the target by 3 meters]
[Level 2: strain the muscles, tearing fleshes, effective bleeding non-stop]
[Level 3: break bones, slight organ injuries]
[Level 4: ???]
[Oopps. The level four skill isn’t available yet, OmO. But no worries, with just 20 more Emo, you can upgrade to level 3~ ]
Leinster decisively bought the level 3 [Tear Cannon] skill. 𝒇𝙧𝙚𝓮𝙬𝙚𝓫𝒏𝓸𝓿𝓮𝒍.𝓬𝙤𝓶
DING! [Thank you for purchasing the skill~ ]
[-120 Emo]
Leinster’s Sorrow Gauge was left with only 30 Emo, but he didn’t mind.
He kept the skill in his mind but didn’t immediately use it.
On the other hand, he whispered to Otomen Lover and the woman slowly put Leinster on the ground, near a hidden clothing rack.
Then, she grabbed two black t-shirts on the rack and carefully flipped the t-shirts inside out while keeping her hands away from the t-shirt’s inside.
Once she was done, Otomen Lover nodded at Leinster and Leinster immediately used his chains to "pick up" the clothes.
Two pitch black t-shirts floated in the air, blending with the darkness.
Even with four sources of light nearby, the t-shirts were still undetectable.
Leinster carefully manipulated his chains to stretch and bring the clothes closer to the fashionable woman.
Then, he waited.
One second, two seconds, three seconds...
Hyo Eun whipped her umbilical cord towards the fashionable woman and the woman subconsciously dodged to the left.
At that moment, Leinster’s eyes flashed with a sharp light.
It’s now!
Leinster shoved the two t-shirts straight to the air on the fashionable woman’s left side.
The fashionable woman was only focused on dodging the umbilical cord, not even noticing the two black shirts floating in the air.
When she dodged to the left, her face inadvertently tilted to the left as well, and she suddenly felt something soft brushing against her face.
Before she could even pull her face back, the soft things suddenly stuck onto her face with a huge force.
SPLAT!
??
The fashionable woman’s vision darkened and she tried to take off whatever was covering her whole face when suddenly...
A stinging, burning sensation crawled all over her face.
!
"AHHHH!!!"
The woman clutched her face in agony as she yanked the clothes covering her face away, but the clothes actually stuck like glue, refusing to budge!
The audience in the woman’s Livestream clearly saw that the two clothes actually started to melt the woman’s face and slowly blended in, as if wanting to replace the woman’s skin.
The audience felt a chill down their spines.
[Damn it! Who threw the clothes to my big sis??]
[How could this be? The clothes have to be worn to trigger the reaction, right?]
[No, no, take a closer look! The clothes are inside out, so it’s actually the same as "wearing it"!]
Because the one that reacted was the inside of the clothes, even if the person didn’t wear the clothes, as long as they touched the inside, they...would be devoured alive.
"Ahhhhhh!! Take it off! Take it off!!"
The fashionable woman tried to control the clothes on her face but the more she controlled it, the deeper they merged with her skin, slowly peeling her original skin away and replacing it with the clothes itself.
Amidst the shrill, heart wrenching scream, Leinster tugged his lips into a triumphant smile as he high-fived the woman from a distance.
"Hehehe, auntie, let me help you!"
Leinster’s palm shone in a blue light and the next second....the void trembled.
BOOM!
