Roco moved forward, punching and shooting everyone he saw. Kichu slashed through his enemies relentlessly, wearing a grin that only made him look more dangerous.

The entire gang was shaken by their sheer speed.
From their perspective, it felt like a hurricane had landed—one that destroyed everything in its path.

“What’s the matter? Afraid?” Kichu called out mockingly. “You’ve got the numbers—over a hundred against two.”
He laughed as he sliced down another man.

“You little bastard... How dare you mock us?” The scarred man staggered to his feet, blood pouring from the gunshot wound Roco had given him earlier.

“You’re still alive?” Roco said coldly, raising his gun to the man’s head.

“You won’t kill me. I know it,” the man said, smirking. “You just want to leave this planet. But forget it—I’ve already contacted the other gang leaders. They'll be here soon.”

“Oh?” Roco raised an eyebrow. “Thanks for the update.”
He glanced at Kichu. “So? Should we just kill them all or head back?”

“We should leave. I’ve got other things to do,” Kichu replied, casually slashing through two more thugs without breaking eye contact.

“You heard him,” Roco said, reloading his gun and pointing it back at the scarred man's head.

“No! You can’t do this—”

“Oh, I can,” Roco interrupted. “But today, I choose not to.”
He turned and walked away.

The man stared at him, stunned.
Even Kichu was speechless, his jaw dropping slightly.

“Who are you and what have you done with the real Roco?” Kichu teased.

“Shut up. Can’t I show a little kindness?” Roco grumbled.

“Didn’t expect that word to come out of your mouth. The universe really is changing,” Kichu replied with a chuckle, sheathing his sword.

“So, are we leaving or charging in?” Fizz suddenly appeared beside them.

“Shit! Don’t scare me like that,” Kichu flinched. “We’re leaving.”

“Good.” Fizz grabbed Kichu, and in an instant, they vanished.

Roco holstered his revolvers and looked around at the carnage.

“Whew... There were so many of them,” he muttered.

Suddenly, a bloodied man grabbed Roco’s ankle.

“You... You’re going to suffer,” the man said weakly.

“Thank you, but I already know that” Roco said trying to push him away.

“I have a sin—called the Bad Omen. I can pass it by touch. Everyone close to you will suffer. You’ll wish for death, but you won’t find it. You’ll live to see hell itself...”

He let out a chilling laugh.

Roco punched him unconscious.

“Bad omen, my ass.”

Fizz reappeared. “Let’s go.”

Roco gave the fallen man one last look, then disappeared with Fizz.

Inside the spaceship...

“Are you okay?” Kichu asked Mira, Marly’s sister.

“Yes…” she said softly, patting Marly’s head. He was still unconscious.

“Why is this happening to us?” she whispered. “Our parents left him to me and died. I did everything I could. Now I’m sick, and he’s the one struggling to take care of me. I’m the reason he’s suffering.”
