"Kill Aria?"

Fang Li's eyebrows furrowed tightly, and his gaze toward Reki became more intense.

Under Fang Li's oppressive stare, Reki's expression didn't change at all. She still held her sniper rifle steadily.

"The Barrett M82A1 sniper rifle I'm using now, I believe Fang Li San knows its power."

Of course, Fang Li knew.

If he didn't even know about different types of firearms and ammunition, he would have no place in Butei.

The Barrett M82A1 Sniper Rifle.

It's a heavy, specialized sniper rifle developed and manufactured by Barrett Firearms Manufacturing in the U.S.

This sniper rifle uses large-caliber bullets, the same as the M2 Browning heavy machine gun, so its firepower is immense. It's widely used by the national armies of Western countries, including U.S. special forces.

In addition to its massive firepower, the rifle is known for its long range and high accuracy, making it a dominant force in the sniper rifle market. It's been used in battlefields like Iraq, with terrifying destructive power.

If someone were shot by a bullet from this sniper rifle, even a grazing hit would be fatal. A direct hit would tear the person apart into several pieces.

Because of this, international law explicitly prohibits using such weapons on humans.

Therefore, this sniper rifle is mainly used against large equipment and tanks.

Now, the mere fact that Reki was aiming this rifle at Fang Li was already an illegal act.

And if...

"If I use this sniper rifle, I can even aim at Fang Li San's room from here."

Reki spoke in a chillingly indifferent voice.

"Adding this to the mix, killing Aria shouldn't be difficult."

As she spoke, Reki pulled a bullet from her uniform pocket.

The bullet's color wasn't the usual metallic hue.

Thus, Fang Li easily identified it.

"A Butei bullet..."

There was no mistake.

The bullet Reki pulled out was one of the special Butei bullets.

"This is an armor-piercing round," Reki said softly. "If I use this, it will nullify the effect of bulletproof uniforms, hitting the body directly with lethal results."

Reki loaded the bullet into the Barrett sniper rifle.

The implication was clear.

If she could aim at Fang Li's room from here, and was using a Butei bullet that could penetrate bulletproof uniforms, then if Reki fired, the target would almost certainly die.

And it was obvious who Reki intended to shoot.

"Please give up your partnership with Aria right now."

Reki declared.

"If you do that, I won't shoot Aria."

This was a threat.

Undeniably so.

It couldn't be more obvious.

Moreover, Fang Li knew one more thing.

Reki was absolutely serious.

If Fang Li didn't comply, Reki would indeed aim that extremely deadly sniper rifle at Fang Li's room and shoot Aria, without any hesitation.

"...Are you insane?" Fang Li stared intently at Reki and said, "As far as I know, your relationship with Aria isn't bad, and you two often work together. Yet now, you're planning to kill her with a sniper rifle?"

"Your actions violate the first, third, and ninth rules of the Butei Law in this country."

**Rule 1:** Trust your comrades and help them. 

**Rule 3:** Grow stronger, but with the right purpose. 

**Rule 9:** Butei must never kill anyone under any circumstances.

"This isn't something that can be resolved by simply revoking your Butei license. The consequences could easily cost you your life in return."

Fang Li's gaze sharpened.

"Not to mention, you're betraying Aria, betraying your comrades, your fellow students, and colleagues. That is something that will never be forgiven."

"Even knowing this, do you still think it's acceptable?"

With each question, Reki finally fell silent.

The wind gently blew, making the air even colder.

Under Fang Li's scrutiny, Reki spoke.

"I am a single bullet."

"A bullet has no heart."

"Therefore, it does not think."

"It only flies towards its target."

These words made Reki's thoughts clear.

This young girl was truly mechanical.

No, she was a weapon.

Even more so than Arcueid, she was a complete weapon.

Weapons don't need emotions; they only follow the wielder's guidance.

Arcueid was created by the True Ancestors to exterminate rogue True Ancestors and Dead Apostles.

Reki, however, had received this command from another source.

"So that's what it is..." Fang Li said quietly.

"That's the 'Wind' you speak of?"

Reki didn't answer.

She simply raised the Barrett sniper rifle in her hands and aimed it in one direction.

That direction was Fang Li's dormitory.

"I am a single bullet."

Reki repeated herself.

"Fang Li San, please make your decision now."

It was the final ultimatum.

The atmosphere around Reki made that clear.

There was no doubt that if Fang Li showed any sign of refusal, Reki would pull the trigger of her sniper rifle without hesitation.

Even if it meant committing a crime, even if it meant betraying her comrades, she would still do it.

However, Fang Li merely smiled lightly.

Then, he firmly declared, "I refuse."

The moment those words fell...

"Bang—!"

In the sudden, deafening gunshot, the barrel of Reki's sniper rifle erupted with muzzle flash, sending a large-caliber bullet tearing through the night sky, violently shooting toward the distance.

"Shing—!"

But almost at the same time, a sharp, clear sound of a blade rang out. The Moonlight Dagger turned into a streak of cold light, speeding toward the bullet's trajectory.

Finally, the dagger collided heavily with the large-caliber bullet.

"Clang—!"

Sparks flew.

The large-caliber bullet was deflected.

The Moonlight Dagger spun like a windmill, returning to the rooftop of the school and falling into Fang Li's hand.

"—!" 

Reki's usually emotionless face tightened slightly.

Had it been anyone else, they would have already cried out in shock at what just happened before their eyes.

Only Reki could maintain this level of reaction to such an unbelievable scene.

Then, Fang Li's voice reached her ears.

"Looks like your mission failed, huh?"

"I'll pretend tonight's events never happened, but I hope there won't be a next time."

"Otherwise, I might have to pay a little visit to this 'Wind' you keep talking about."

With those words, Fang Li's presence disappeared.

Reki knew that Fang Li had left.

She couldn't say another word and sank into a long silence.

For a long time, there was no reaction.
