Chapter 137- Sorophi Rampage (Part 1)

Her order became more and more forceful the more Rin didn\'t nod his head and do it. But, the latter was simply not going to just agree with that simply because she said it. Never mind the fact that the teddy bear was tarnished with the rotten blood of some kind of creature, why would he even hug a teddy bear in the first place?

Not only was it a weird-looking teddy bear but it was also one of the belongings of a top-10 ranker! It could bite off his head if he hugged it, for all he cared!

But, on the other hand, he was dealing with a potentially massive threat to his life that didn\'t seem to be any more mature than a small toddler. If she wanted, she could literally blast him out of existence in a small tantrum.

Rubbing his head, he shifted his gaze to his partner who seemed to have realized something.

\'You should hug it.\' She said through her beautiful eyes.

\'Should I?\'

\'If you don\'t want to end up killed, then yeah. We should entertain her for some time until Emilia appears.\'

\'Ugh, fine.\'

The conversation ended swiftly with that conclusion that didn\'t sound that pleasant in Rin\'s ears. He wasn\'t really keen on the idea of hugging a fucking blood-soaked bear!

Gritting his teeth, he approached the small girl and picked up the plushy animal. Examining it, he found it to be quite bizarre and unsettling for some odd reason.

It\'s body wasn\'t that weird and the texture of its synthetic fur wasn\'t weird either, it was its eyes that unsettled him greatly. He didn\'t know the reason why but he just couldn\'t look at them straight for more than a few seconds at a time before he has to avert his eyes.

\'Is this thing alive?\' He asked himself.

"Hug!"

"Ugh! Fine. I will, give me a second."

After that, he wrapped his arms around the teddy bear, ignoring the sticky feeling and the disgusting smell of it.

After hugging it for a second, he quickly pushed it away and gave it back to the little girl.

"There, I hugged it! Now, what do you want?" He said as he tried to clean his arms from the red blood.

"Here." Elise gave him a handkerchief as she kept eye contact with the small girl.

"Thanks, this blood is quite sticky. It doesn\'t look like any blood of a beast I have seen." He murmured.

"Maybe because it isn\'t," Elise said as she squinted her eyes at the girl

"Huh? You mean…"

"Yeah, this is the blood… of a human. Isn\'t that right, little girl?"

The girl didn\'t answer and merely watched Rin as if he was the only thing that existed in this world. She had an amazing ability in ignoring people that it doesn\'t even make them feel offended. People get offended when the other person deliberately ignores them. On the other hand, this little girl was simply not even trying to ignore them, in her head, the people she doesn\'t take interest in do not exist.

\'She isn\'t responsive.\' Rin concluded after seeing her weird behavior.

"Mmm, little girl, what\'s your name?" Rin said as he bent down and tried to smile a little bit to not appear intimidating to her.

The last thing he wanted was to get turned into small particles just because she got scared.

"..."

\'Dealing with a child capable of sending you to your grave is not fun!\'

"Mm, can you please tell me your name if I… give you this candy?" He rummaged through his inventory and found a small piece of candy he kept for when he wanted something sweet in his mouth. It was one of the small habits he kept from his old world as having a sweet candy in his mouth helped him keep his calm and think rationally even when he is feeling stressed.

Looking at the candy, the girl blinked a few times with her petite eyes and then extended her arm to pick up the piece of candy.

The moment she put her hand on Rin\'s hand…

*BANG*

His hand fell down as if it got hit by a giant truck from above. His eyes widened in clear shock as he stared down at his hand that had created a crater in the ground.

The girl, unbothered by what happened as if it was the most normal thing in existence merely ate the candy. Her small, red lips kept moving adorably while she crunched on the candy.

"What the…" Pulling out his hand, he checked it carefully.

A small cut appeared on his hand and blood oozed out from there.

\'Even though I knew she\'s stupidly strong. This is just…\'

As for Elise, she couldn\'t even say anything. Her eyes flashed with a weird glint before they returned to their usual calm state.

"My name is Sorophi." The girl suddenly said.

"Oh? Nice to meet you, Sorophi." He tried to keep his professional smile as he talked with her. Rin had no right to complain or say anything to this childish monster or he knew that he might have to start nailing his coffin.

"So, Sorophi… Ehem, what do you want from us?"

"Hug."

"Didn\'t I just hug it?"

"Hug… for me." She said as she extended her arm toward him. Her small hands kept closing and opening just like a child asking for their mother to lift them up.

\'This is really stupid.\' He scratched his head as he felt lost on what to do with this girl.

Rin thought he was someone who could deal with small children and even make them like him. But, Sorophi was just eerily different. She just didn\'t act like a child but at the same time, she was acting like a child. It was a weird paradox he couldn\'t get… Sorophi Paradox.

"Rin!"

As he was like that, he heard a voice calling for him so he turned around. Much to his delight, he found Emilia who had come rushing toward them looking quite agitated.

"Master."

"Where is that girl?" She asked before her eyes landed on Sorophi.

The latter didn\'t even acknowledge Emilia\'s presence.

"What happened, master?"

Sighing, Emilia answered.

"She…. Killed one of the guards."

"Huh?"

"From what they reported… This guard seemed to be quite fidgety and suspicious. He ran away at some point. Then… he ended up in the hands of this little girl."

"Where is he now?"

"You mean where\'s what\'s left of him? The only intact part of his body left is his torso. Everything else was blown into smithereens."

"Damn…" Hearing that, Rin shuddered a little bit.

"So you don\'t know whether he can be a cult member or not?"

Shaking her head, Emilia directed her next words toward Sorophi.

"Why did you kill him?" She asked.

"... Silika wants to eat."

"That doesn\'t give you the right to kill him. Sigh…" Tapping her forehead, Emilia tried to take a few deep breaths to calm down.

"Silika wants to eat so I gave her food!!" Sorophi shouted again as she rubbed her teddy bear gently.

"Now, we lost a possible lead because of that stupid doll of yours," Emilia added.

*Click*

Without any warning, Sorophi\'s face contorted into a strong frown before she swung her arm.

"Bad!"

That small swing of her arm, as minuscule as it may look created a violently strong airwave.

Rin felt his body getting blasted in the air like a tree leaf.

"WOAAAAH!!"

Looking to his side, he found Elise flying back uncontrollably too. Without thinking twice, he grabbed her and hugged her body tightly. His instinct had told him to protect Elise.

*BANG*

"Ugh." Rin groaned as he smashed into the ground 50 meters away from Sorophi. A small move of her arm was enough to blast them like this, Rin felt the hair on his arms stand up from thinking about the idea of what could\'ve happened if she used more force than that.

Emilia, on the other hand, was merely pushed back while still keeping her balance. Her hand was put in front of her face. Clenching her teeth, she forced herself to stop and then glared at Sorophi.

"Stop acting childish, Sorophi! This isn\'t a game."

"No!" Crying as loud as she could, Rin could swear his ear drums were almost destroyed.

"Sorophi, enough!" Emilia was also losing her temper slowly because of the small girl.

"Bad! Siliki and Sorophi hate Emi!" Sorophi screamed again as she threw her teddy bear in the air. The small plushy creature fidgeted once before it completely morphed in an instant.

From a small, arguably cute anime, it turned into a giant, nightmare-inducing monster. The moment it landed, the ground beneath it cracked as if it was made out of biscuits. The series of cracks extended till it reached Emilia which made the latter jump back a few meters so as to not get stuck in the broken rocks.
