Miss Witch Doesn't Want to be a Diva-Chapter 783 - 16: Purple Lightning Cat Ears in the Alleyway_3
Her brow flashed with the mark of a peacock feather, her fingers momentarily transformed, and a purple Thunder Mark shot out, instantly piercing through the man's body before her, sparking variegated electric sparks like countless firecrackers.
Afterward, the man, his skin charred black as charcoal, fell with his head striking the ground with a thump.
"He's not dead, is he?" Ailu Kelu returned to the side of the other three, checking with a bit of trepidation.
She kicked the man's body, flipping him over once more, and upon confirming he was still breathing, she immediately felt relieved.
"Is that how you check?" Blanchi was quite astonished.
"Of course, you don't have to be too nice to bad guys," Ailu Kelu educated Blanchi.
"Thanks to Tilan just now. I'm used to acting alone and forgot to look out for you two," Ailu Kelu said, slightly embarrassed.
"It's nothing," Tilan shook her head, deeming it a trivial matter.
"Ah, what a letdown. I didn't get to see the show I wanted to, but instead ran into this big, dumb brute."
The cat-eared Songstress complained while kicking the man on the ground who had passed out. After a while, the man finally came to his senses.
"Uh..." He looked up at the four people who hadn't left yet, propped himself up with lingering fear, and retreated a good distance.
"Don't go just yet," Ailu Kelu called out.
"What do you want?" He scanned left and right for a possible escape route.
"Explain why the scheduled concert didn't happen," she demanded.
"That... I'll tell, I'll tell," it wasn't a secret anyway, and he quickly began to recount the events of the previous day.
"So, the bunny-eared sisters were taken by the 'Ghost Face Gang' after being targeted, is that right?"
"Seems so. I only heard it from others, but everyone from the alley's other shops saw it with their own eyes, so it should be true," he relayed the information he had heard.
"At that time, there seemed to be a young student who disrupted their plans, which made the Ghost Face Gang very angry. They chased after him, and then there was another commotion, and the bunny-eared sisters were taken away by them."
"Where did they take them?" Ailu Kelu's eyes faintly shimmered with Purple Lightning.
"I don't know, I really don't know."
Seeing the aura of Ailu Kelu rising continuously with fearsome electric power seeping out, the man was filled with dread. He had badly misjudged the situation; this girl was at least Sequence 6, and the type skilled in combat.
"Hmph," Ailu Kelu stomped her foot, and electric ripples spread through the entire alley, causing every store to blackout and sink into darkness.
Soon, the people in the alley came out, some of them quite angry, intending to teach a lesson to the one who had disturbed their sweet dreams.
"Which idiot is playing with electromagnetic pulses here, stirring up public anger, do you know?"
With that, a crowd surged towards the alley entrance where Ailu Kelu stood.
"Maybe we should leave. They look very angry," Blanchi whispered quietly, a bit scared by the scene.
"It's fine, I'm here," Ailu Kelu patted her chest confidently.
"Even if you think I'm unreliable, there's still Tilan to look after you. Don't be fooled by her calm demeanor, I'll tell you, this kid can fight."
"Cough."
Tilan touched her forehead, wondering if it was a mistake to come out with this senior tonight; it seemed that even a Songstress senior couldn't always be relied upon.
"I will protect Blanchi, but Ailu Kelu senior, try to keep a low profile," she said, pulling Blanchi back into a shadowy corner to avoid being affected by what was happening.
"No worries, watch this," Ailu Kelu snickered.
After saying that, Ailu Kelu snapped her fingers towards the advancing crowd, and a peculiar surge of electric light passed, causing an inexplicable shock in everyone's hearts. Then they saw the cat-eared girl leap into the air and plummet down like a comet into the midst of the crowd.
The intense Purple Lightning exploded like fire in an instant, and all the people who had just come out trembled as they lay down, sprawled in all directions.
She clapped her hands and looked back, signaling the three to follow.
"Now comes the easy part of questioning," she said casually.
Looking at the twitching figures on the ground, she nimbly walked over, kicked one awake, and had them recount the details of yesterday's events.
