The King's Mandate: Anomalous System

Chapter 430: Damsel in Distress

He moved his hand and grabbed the head of one of the men. 'I don't care about anyone as long as my loved ones are safe, and to keep my loved ones safe, I need to get rid of all the crimes and criminals.'

All the men looked at Das. 

Now that he was close to them, he could see their faces; they were wearing masks.

Das slammed the man's head into the wall, and the man fell down.

The other men took out their gun and fired at Das. Das crouched down and grabbed the face of one man. They fired again, and Das used that man as a shield.

Das then grabbed the gun of that man and jumped on the man in front of him, then inserted the gun in the man's mouth and fired three shorts.

The remaining two men reloaded their gun, and in the meantime, Das took out a dagger from the man belt of the man he just killed and pierced the other man's skull.

He then used that man's gun and emptied the mag by firing the last man.

This all happened in less than ten seconds. He killed five men in an instant.

Das looked at the girl, who was totally fazed, then opened his mouth to say something.

The girl's eyes widened as she looked behind Das' shoulder and yelled, "Watch out!"

Das turned around to see a man holding a gun and aiming at him. He was standing at some distance from Das. He was the man who Das had killed first, or so he thought.

Das had no weapons in his hand. He had no time to react. Even if he dashed at the man to tackle him down, he would be too late.

Das could do the only one thing, which was to grab the nearest weapon, but he would be killed if he wasted his time picking up the gun.

Das had to make an important decision, but there was no guarantee he would survive in any of the options.

Das decided to pick up the gun as fast as possible and fire it at the man. But if he did that, the bullet would hit the girl.

Das had no intention to save the girl from the start. He only came to check if that girl was Elena or not. 

As Das tried to pick up the gun, he heard 4 shots, but he didn't stop. He picked up the gun and quickly aimed it at the man but the man was no longer there. He was on the ground, shot dead.

Das looked back and saw a gun in the girl's hand.

The girl put the gun in her purse and stood up. She fixed her clothes and sighed.

She then looked at Das, who was confused by the situation and groaned. 

"Who are you?" Das asked.

The girl looked at him and stared for a while before opening her purse. She took out something from her purse and showed it to  Das.

"I am from the police."

"..." Das was regretting saving that girl.

"What's with the face?" the girl asked.

"I just realized how stupid I was."

"Yeah," She put it back in her purse and said, "When you kill someone, or try to kill someone, you need to make sure they are dead."

"..." Das furrowed his eyebrows.

"Why do you look more confused now?"

"What are you talking about?"

"I was talking about the first man you killed but failed. If it weren't for me, you would have died."

"...." 

"You tried to pick up the weapon, and that's the choice that almost had you killed." That was undoubtedly true. What Das tried to do was very risky.

"I wasn't talking about that when I said that. I said I was stupid because I tried to save someone."

The girl looked at Das in complete disbelief. "Are you saying you regret saving me?"

"What else?"

The girl jumped on Das, saying, "What do you mean 'what else'? Why do you regret saving me?"

Das pushed her on the side and said, "because you are from the police."

'This is the worst possible scenario. Police saw me killing, and now I will be arrested. I still have to meet Elena, dammit!'

"You killed these men in six seconds." uttered the girl.

"...."

She looked at the corpses. "I am the best officer in this city, if not, one of the best in this country. And I can testify that even I can't kill like this." She turned to Das and said, "Say, where did you receive your training, and who are you?"

"I didn't receive any training."

The girl made that face of disbelief again. "You are kidding right?"

"I am not."

"Then how could you kill this easily?"

'Because I am a killer' Das rolled his eyes and said, "I don't know. I was just in a hurry."

"Hurry for what?"

Das glared at the girl and said, "It's none of your business."

The girl stepped back due to Das' glare. "I am the leader of all the police forces, and.... and this was the first time I felt scared in my entire life."

"You mean when you were yelling and crying for help?"

"No!" She roared. "I am talking about your glare just now!"

"..."

"Then why were you yelling for help?"

She sighed and said, "This area is well known for the crimes. Our sources said that there would be a deal here tonight, so I was here as an undercover, but it seems that the sources were wrong."

"Or they just changed the location," Das added.

"Hmm. Well, anyway, thanks for saving me."

"Why were you yelling for help when you are from the police?"

"I was just trying to act like a damsel in distress." She grinned and then said, "Looks like it worked."

"There is no way you are the leader of all the forces."

Her grin vanished as she said, "What do you mean?"
