A Murderer From Another World

An Oath From A Righteous Man

Year 2055

"My... he-ad.. why do I feel fuzzy all of sudden... Where was I? hmm.. yeeeah.. I need to visit Agent Lu-"

Agent Espel immediately shook his head as he remembered. As his head cleared, two figures that are so familiar to him, looking at him with pleading eye. Both of them have rags in their mouth, preventing them to make any noise. It was her wife and daughter tied up, he tried to stand up to help his family. However-

"Hmm.. hm! This pasta~~ ohh it hits the spot! Delish it is! And this bread... made with love?"

Agent Espel focused on the shadowy figure on his right most view. As he turned his head towards his right side, the worst possible person that can be this close to his beloved wife and daughter showed up. Holding a plate that has his favorite pasta, enjoying the said dish before him.

"Welp~~ gotta have some energy for this night! Okay shall we start?"

As Xipe let go of his plate, he walks towards Agent Espel who is tied down on a chair. He's holding two buttons with both hands.

"Nooooow~~ the game begins. Our contestant for today! Is none other than the head of Anti-Terrorist Branch Sector 002, who is assigned to pursue me. Agent Es~~~pel!"

Agent Espel's eyes went wide as he realized what will happen next. He tried to struggle but he is tightly tied down.

"Raaagh! st-op! Ple-ase no!"

"Ohh it's really hard to understand you with that rag in your mouth. Lemme remove it for ya."

Xipe removed the rag out of Agent Espel's mouth to hear him out. He was shocked when he saw tears running down the agent's face.

"Didn't expect to see this... are you that excited to play our little game agent?"

"Please not them! Kill me.. please just kill me... aaahhh... please!"

Xiper got immediately annoyed and pushed the rag back in the agent's mouth.

"Simply pathetic, aren't we? Think I need to kill Agent Luck again... well that can't happen. Hmmm... the description he said doesn't match at all. You see Agent Espel, the thing is I don't lie. Since I started this, I promised to myself, I will never lie. Remember the text message? We will see each other... eye to eye.. and here we are~~ right?"

Agent Espel's suddenly bowed down. Still saying "Please!".

"Haaaahhh~~~ this is kinda anti-climactic. Thought you will be like some sort of a rival or something. How disappointing. Oh well.. my fault since I expected to much from you. Here just pick one, let your wife die and you daughter will be saved and vice versa."

Xipe handed the buttons to Agent Espel.

"Make it quick agent~ you only have a minute to pick. If you don't.. hmm what was that again? Ohh yeah! Both of them will die."

He shove both buttons on the agents face.

"Hmm... ahhh..." - Agent Espel shook his head vigorously. "Ahhha... ...ease... ooooOOO!!"

"You're boring.."

Then BOOM!!! A burst of blood and brains splattered all over Agent Espel's face and Xipe's back. Xipe got down to his knees to pick up something... it was an eye.. the eye of Agent Espel's daughter Cake.

"Look daddy~ I can see you..."

Xipe said those words in a childish way. As for Agent Espel, he can't take his eyes on a now two headless figures.

"Why is this happening to me... If... no.."

Xipe suddenly stepped back, as he saw the man who was crying and pleading just now, turned into a beast. Agent Espel gathered all his strength and with adrenaline rush, he stood up, gripped the knife and ready to charge in.
