Nobody continued toward the nearest marker.
A few streets later, he entered a quieter part of the city. The tall buildings gradually became smaller. The streets narrowed. Streetlights stood farther apart.
The System map guided him toward an old industrial district.
Nobody slowed down. "The place looks abandoned."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Confirmed.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"That’s usually where things get suspicious."
He looked toward an old warehouse at the end of the street.
The marker was directly above it.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Target Location]
Distance:
42 meters
Danger:
High
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody stopped. "Here we go."
He carefully approached the building.
The large metal doors were partially closed. A faint light could be seen through the gap. Nobody crouched slightly and looked inside. Several men were moving boxes. Another stood near a desk,making a phone call.
Nobody couldn’t see the target. "System."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Yes?]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"Can you locate the person?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Searching]
Target signature detected.
Location:
Lower floor.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody nodded. "Lower floor." He looked around. A staircase was visible near the back of the warehouse.
Before he could move, a voice came from behind him. "Hey!"
Nobody froze.
Three men stood at the other end of the alley. One of them pointed toward him. "Who are you?"
Nobody slowly turned. "...Me?"
The men began approaching. "You shouldn’t be here. This is not a place for anyone to roam around."
Nobody sighed. "Of course."
One man pulled out a metal pipe. Another reached beneath his jacket. The third cracked his knuckles.
Nobody looked toward the System. "Does this count?"

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody’s eyes lit up. "Oh." He smiled. "Now we’re talking."
The first man charged. Nobody stepped aside at the last moment. The pipe swung past his shoulder. He caught the man’s wrist and redirected the momentum, causing him to stumble forward. Nobody smashed his head with his crowbars.
The second man rushed from the side. Nobody ducked beneath the swing and drove his shoulder into the man’s chest. The man staggered backward.
The third tried to grab Nobody from behind. Nobody turned and swept his leg across the man’s feet. The man lost his balance and hit the ground.
Nobody looked at all three. "Guys." They groaned. "You really should’ve just stayed inside."
The first man slowly stood. "You think you’re funny?"
Nobody tilted his head. "No, I am a Hunter, baby."
The man charged again.
Nobody moved forward this time. He caught the man’s arm and twisted it just enough to force him down without causing unnecessary injury.
The second man attempted to attack. Nobody turned and knocked the weapon from his hand. It clattered across the pavement.
The man froze.
Nobody pointed toward the ground. "Don’t."
The man raised his hands. "Okay."
The third man looked at his companions. Then at Nobody. Then he decided running was a better option. He turned.
Nobody sighed. "Seriously? Running, showing your back?" He moved after him. Within seconds, the man stumbled when Nobody blocked his path.
The man raised both hands. "I surrender!"
Nobody stared. "...That was quick."
The System appeared.

Nobody smiled. "Only one hundred ninety-seven left." He looked toward the warehouse. The three men were now sitting on the ground, too frightened to continue.
Nobody walked past them. "Stay there."
He entered the building.
Inside, the atmosphere changed immediately. The warehouse was much larger than it had appeared from outside. Rows of crates filled the room. A few overhead lights flickered.
Nobody followed the System’s guidance toward the staircase.
Then he heard something. A faint sound. Someone was crying.
Nobody stopped. His expression became serious. "System."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Target confirmed.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
"How far?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Below you.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody looked toward the staircase. "Then let’s bring them home." He descended. Step by step. The deeper he went, the quieter the building became.
At the bottom was a long corridor. A locked door stood at the end. The marker was directly behind it.
Nobody approached. He placed his hand against the door. "I’m here."
The crying suddenly stopped.
A small voice came from inside. "...Who?"
Nobody softened his voice. "Someone who came to get you out."
Then...
"...Are you really going to help me?"
Nobody smiled. "Yeah."
The lock clicked. The door slowly opened. Nobody stepped inside.
The rescue operation had officially begun. And somewhere far away, the people behind Eclipse’s hidden operation were still watching.
Ray had already warned him once not to interfere with the plot. But that is not enough to stop Mr.Nobody.
........
The little girl stood frozen beside Nobody.
She looked exhausted,but the moment she realized the door was open,something inside her finally seemed to loosen.
Nobody crouched down so that he was closer to her height. "Come on."
The girl hesitated. "Are you...really taking me home?"
Nobody nodded. "That’s the plan."
She slowly stepped forward.
Nobody glanced at the System.

A second notification appeared.

Nobody smiled. "One more."
The girl looked at him. "Are you a police officer?"
Nobody paused. "..I am a happy police."
The girl tilted her head. "You don’t look like one. You look like a bunny."
Nobody looked down at himself. "Ahem...Yeah. I get that a lot."
The girl gave a tiny smile. "Ok, unc bunny."
Nobody pointed toward the entrance. "Stay close to me. We’re leaving."
They walked through the warehouse. The three men from outside were still sitting exactly where Nobody had left them.
One of them stared at the girl. Then at Nobody. "How did you even get down there so quickly?"
Nobody shrugged. "Fast legs."
The man looked unconvinced.
Nobody walked past him. "Don’t overthink it."
Outside, the night air felt much cooler. Nobody contacted the authorities and gave them the location. Once he knew the girl would be safely collected, Nobody turned toward the city.
The System immediately displayed another marker.

Nobody stared at it. "Already?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Yes.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody sighed. "I was hoping for at least five minutes of rest."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[User has received approximately forty-seven seconds.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody blinked. "...You’re actually counting?"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Yes.]
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody shook his head. "Forget it." He headed toward the next location.
...........
Nobody arrived at an old multi-level parking structure. The System marker pointed toward the third floor. Nobody walked through the entrance. The building was almost completely dark.
Then he heard footsteps.
Several men emerged from between the parked vehicles. One held a baseball bat. Another carried a metal chain. A third pointed toward Nobody.
"That’s him!"
Nobody stopped. "...Me?"
"He came alone!"
Nobody looked around. "Technically, I came with my terrible personality."
The men stared.
One of them frowned. "What?"
"Nothing."
The first attacker charged.
Nobody stepped sideways. The bat swung past his shoulder. He caught the man’s wrist and used the man’s own momentum to send him stumbling across the hood of a parked car.
The second attacker came from behind.
Nobody ducked. The chain passed over his head. He turned and grabbed the chain. The attacker pulled.
Nobody didn’t move. The man pulled harder. Still nothing.
Nobody looked at him. "Are you done?"
The man stared. "...What?"
Nobody gently pulled the chain. The attacker flew forward and landed on the concrete.
Nobody released it. "My Baby learned to fly, awww!!"
The third man rushed toward him.
Nobody jumped onto the hood of a car,used it as a platform,and vaulted over the man’s shoulder. He landed behind him.
The man turned around.
Nobody pointed. "You’re looking the wrong way."
The man swung wildly. Nobody ducked and lightly tapped the back of his helmet against the man’s forehead.
The man stumbled. "Ow!"
Nobody rubbed his helmet. "Ow." He looked offended. "That hurt me too."
The System appeared.

Nobody smiled. "Six already." He looked toward the stairs. "Not bad." A loud voice suddenly echoed from above. "GET HIM!"
Nobody looked upward.
More men appeared on the next level. He stared.
"...Oh."
One man shouted. "Don’t let him reach the hostage!"
Nobody’s expression immediately changed. "Hostage?"
The System confirmed.
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
[Target Detected]
Location:
Level Four
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Nobody looked at the staircase. "Alright." He cracked his neck. "Now I’m interested."
Several men rushed down the stairs. Nobody ran upward.
The first attacker swung. Nobody leaned backward. The weapon passed inches above him. He continued running.
Another man attempted to block the stairs.
Nobody planted one foot against the wall and pushed himself sideways,slipping past the man before landing on the next flight.
The man stared. "How did he do that?!"
Nobody continued upward. "Practice, I suppose."
Another attacker appeared.
Nobody grabbed the railing, swung around it and kicked the man’s weapon away. The weapon skidded down the stairs.
The attacker stared.
Nobody smiled. "Thanks for clearing the path." He continued. By the time he reached the fourth floor, the remaining men were already backing away.
Nobody walked toward them. "Where’s the kid?" Nobody pointed toward a storage room.
The men exchanged glances.
Nobody sighed. "Wrong answer." He moved.
Within moments, the hallway was clear.
The System updated.

Nobody opened the storage room. A frightened boy was sitting inside.
Nobody crouched. "Hey."
The boy looked up. "...Are you here to help me?"
"Yep."
"Are you a superhero?"
Nobody paused. "...Unofficially."
The boy smiled.
Nobody helped him stand.
"Let’s get you somewhere safe."
