Chapter 159: Inside Agent
In a dark, deep cave not far from the battlefield...
"Ugh..."
After a while, Kōga Kuchiki slowly regained consciousness. He shook his head, trying to dispel the dizziness clouding his mind.
When he opened his eyes and took in his surroundings, a chill ran down his spine. He struggled to sit up, but his body felt as if it were pinned under an immense weight, rendering him completely immobile.
Shock filled Kōga Kuchiki. He had never felt so weak, so powerless.
Just then, a low voice echoed from the depths of the cave.
"In your current condition, you shouldn't be making any sudden movements."
The unexpected voice startled him, but when he turned toward its source, he saw Masatsuki Aozaki leaning against the rock wall, arms crossed, looking completely at ease.
Upon seeing Masatsuki, Kōga Kuchiki's initial panic subsided. His expression turned bleak as he spoke.
"Since I lost to you, do whatever you want—kill me if you must."
"Either way, I've committed an unforgivable crime. If I fall into the hands of the Tsunayashiro Clan, I'm as good as dead. Not even my father-in-law could save me."
