Once outside, Tomejima looked back at the warehouse with regret. “Shit!” he spat. “To think that idiot’s actions would screw me over even here!”

Kolbe was waiting outside the warehouse. “You don’t look too thrilled. What happened?” When Tomejima explained, Kolbe immediately understood—he’d witnessed the incident with Kadol as well. “So it’s that moron’s fault, huh? Well, what do you want to do, then? Should we tell Akira his address in case the kid wants to blow off some steam?”

At Kolbe’s casual suggestion that they assist Akira in killing Kadol, Tomejima gave the hunter a disapproving look. “No, no need to go that far...” He resented Kadol for what had happened and wouldn’t care if he ended up dead, but he didn’t want to be personally responsible for the hunter’s demise. “Say, Kolbe, back at the bar I saw you talking with Akira. If you’re buddies with him, would you be able to help me out?”

“Sorry, no can do. I just know him—we’re not close or anything. And I only know him ’cause one of my guys caused him trouble, so it’s doubly impossible.”

“That so? Damn! Got any other good ideas, then? I really want in on this operation—if it pans out, I’d be rolling in the dough. Don’t want to miss out because of some dumbass.”

“I don’t have any good ideas, no.”

“Meaning you have a bad one?”

“Well, if you’re really that desperate, you could always go to Viola. I’m sure she’d be able to manage something.”

Kolbe made his offhand suggestion merely in jest. He might as well have said, “Why are you asking me?” But Tomejima knew how much money the relic business might rake in, and craving for a piece of that pie, he took Kolbe’s advice seriously.

Akira soaked in the bath, looking conflicted. “Hmm... I honestly have no clue which to choose,” he groaned.

Many weapons were floating in midair before him. Naturally, they were not real—Alpha had merely projected them into his vision—but the detail on the images made them indistinguishable from reality. Alpha was acting as a model, naked and holding each of the weapons to show Akira its features and functions while she listed their specs. Depending on what one was into, the sight could have even been classified as arousing.

Don’t just give up, Akira. This is an important decision that’ll affect your chances of survival, so put some effort into it.

“I know, but...”

These were all guns that Shizuka had recommended. With such a large budget to work with, there were so many options that even she couldn’t suggest anything specific right away. So first she’d sent him a general list of weapons to choose from based on what features he’d asked for. Then, once picked out those he liked and narrowed down his selection, Shizuka would give him a more specific list of weapons similar to what he’d chosen. They’d repeat this process until Akira finally found the gun he wanted.

He was still on the first list, which was only meant to show him his options and give Shizuka an idea of the direction he wanted to go.
