After the enraged Tuziku mercilessly ended Jiqu's life, despite being unconscious, deep within he still felt a strong sense of dissatisfaction.
"Arghhhhh!" he screamed.
As though searching for something, Tuziku began roaming the hallways of the enormous mansion, destroying everything in his path.
He entered the family's living room and found Jilaal, along with Reter and Kavin, attempting to escape.
"What did you do to Jiqu, you monster!!" Jilaal shouted, as Kavin and Reter trembled behind him.
Tuziku began to approach.
Kavin's eyes darted to the family's shotgun displayed on the wall. In an instant, he grabbed it, loaded the barrel, and aimed at Tuziku, who was steadily advancing.
"St—stay away!!" he shouted.
Tuziku continued moving closer.
"Shoot him!" Reter shouted, fear overtaking him.
"Stay back, you monster!" Kavin screamed.
"If you don't shoot him, he's going to kill us, Kavin!" Jilaal shouted.
As Tuziku closed in, less than ten feet away, Kavin pulled the trigger, eyes squeezed shut.
boom…
Silence followed.
Kavin slowly lowered the barrel and opened his eyes to a terrifying sight — Tuziku still stood upright, the bullet melting upon contact with his acid-coated body.
"Th—that's impossible!" Kavin shouted, as Jilaal and Reter watched in terror.
The enraged Tuziku stood there, unfazed. His arms began secreting acid in an unusual way.
The corrosive liquid twisted into long, tentacle-like shapes.
"We have to run! Now!" Jilaal shouted.
As Jilaal and his sons bolted toward the mansion's exit, Tuziku swung his acid tentacles, blocking their escape.
"Sh—shit!!" Jilaal yelled.
"How are we going to escape now?!" Reter cried.
"Get out of the way, you damn monster!!" Jilaal screamed, terror-stricken.
Tuziku's acid tentacle swung, severing Jilaal's body in two, straight down the middle.
sploort…
thud…
"Father!!" Reter shouted, as Kavin raised his shotgun again.
"Run now, Reter!!" Kavin screamed.
Reter ran, while Tuziku was distracted.
Before he could fire, Tuziku's acid tentacle immaculately severed Kavin's head from his body.
thud…
splshhh…
"Arghhhhhh!!" he screamed.
After realizing Reter had escaped, Tuziku went into a frenzied uproar, destroying the entire mansion and everything within sight.
As he rampaged through the southern district of Fuyu, a total of 115 lives were lost in the process.
Suddenly, a familiar sight brought Tuziku to an abrupt halt.
"S—son, is that you?" a soft voice called.
Tuziku stared.
"F—ather…" he replied.
