Killer Queen

At six, you reported a teacher for theft and, as a result, met the phantom thief girl, Padoru Felice.

Afterward, perhaps Pardo was drawn to your calm demeanor, or perhaps it was your favoritism toward her. Either way, the girl latched onto you.

"Boss Yoshikage Kira!"

Watching the girl knock on your door every day, you patiently repeated that you wanted a peaceful life and did not want too much contact with others.

But when faced with a girl you had liked even before transmigrating, you ultimately could not stay firm.

Was I Yoshikage Kira now, or was I He Cheng-rui? You often wondered.

Your father, Yoshikazu Kira, was quite fond of the girl who often came to bother you. After learning about Pardo's background, he felt even more sympathy for her.

Thus, Kira Clinic gained another little nurse.

Things having come to this, you had no choice but to accept the presence of another kitty in your peaceful life.

You got up in the morning to make breakfast for your father, then went out for a morning run. After returning, you read, made lunch for your father, read in the afternoon, exercised, made dinner for your father, then drank a cup of hot milk. Before going to bed at ten, you did stretches, then fell into an infant-like sleep. Even your father, a doctor, said you were very healthy.

Occasionally, you also went to the clinic to help your father, and he was delighted by your rapid progress in medicine.

Occasionally, when no one was at the clinic, Pardo would ask you to play with her. Of course, you never agreed.

You liked this peaceful life very much.

But you knew full well that such a life would not last long.

Honkai hung over your peaceful life like a Sword of Damocles. Your main reason for coming to the clinic had merely been to confirm Honkai's progress.

At twelve, an outsider came to Twilight Town. After receiving the hospitality of Twilight Town's simple and honest residents, he arrived at Kira Clinic.

But having had all his belongings looted, he could not afford the medical fees. Yoshikazu Kira saw his predicament and prepared to waive them.

"Ah! It is you! It is because of people like you that the world is full of hope! In such a filthy place, you can still retain a kind heart! I am willing to give this item to you!" With that, he took a golden arrow from a hidden compartment in his shoe. Its tip was shaped like a ladybug.

Your father could tell that the item was valuable and was just about to refuse, but the man tossed down the arrow and ran out of the clinic.

Yoshikage Kira quickly stepped forward and picked up the arrow, an unusual light gleaming in his eyes.

"What a strange person," Pardo said as she walked toward Yoshikage Kira. Looking at the arrow in his hand, she curiously reached out, wanting to touch it.

"Stop." Yoshikage Kira hid the arrow behind his back. "Don't touch things casually."

Frightened by Yoshikage Kira's imposing manner, Pardo scratched the back of her head. "Sorry, Boss. I was just curious, haha."

Seeing Pardo's soft and adorable appearance, Yoshikage Kira softened his tone as well. "It's fine. This thing is too sharp. Don't touch it casually."

"Father, I'll put this thing away."

"Ah, all right, Kira. Be careful not to cut yourself too."

Returning to his room, Yoshikage Kira looked at the arrow in his hand.

The Arrow, a fragment of an extraterrestrial meteorite. As long as one's spirit was strong enough, whoever it pierced could obtain an ability—a Stand.

Yoshikage Kira recalled this, then without hesitation stabbed the arrow into his little finger.

"I, Yoshikage Kira, want to live a peaceful life. For that, I need the power to maintain that peaceful life."

Looking at his bleeding little finger, Yoshikage Kira muttered to himself.

"Come forth, Killer Queen!"

With those words, a pale pink humanoid figure with cat ears appeared behind Yoshikage Kira.

Looking at the Stand behind him, Yoshikage Kira nodded in satisfaction. He then hid the arrow in the photo frame on his bedroom desk, covering it with a photograph of himself and his father.

At twelve, the gears of fate began to turn. You obtained a Stand, but you, Yoshikage Kira, only wanted to live a peaceful life, so you did not use this power to profit for yourself or show off before others.

You still lived a peaceful life, just as before.

But you were no longer as panicked about the coming Honkai as you had been at first.
