Kuroudo (Chilling Voice): Why?

???: What?

Kuroudo: Why should I let you live?

They fell on their knees while I kept looking down at them.

Kuroudo: You're just trash... That needs to be disposed of.

They started to shuffle away from me slowly. 

???: But, I'm innocent! What happened to killing criminals?!

I smiled.

Kuroudo: Oh? You still think I do that? Nowadays, I kill for fun! The thrill!

???: I don't wanna die!

They started to run off and I drew my blade from its scabbard.

I slowly got up and looked at Suguha.

(Y/N): That's whenever someone ruins my sleeping time...

Her eyes widened and she wiped something off of my face.
