Stake

In the blink of an eye, D was in the air over Rei-Ginsei’s head. Sword
raised for the kill, the moment the crowd gasped at their premonition of the
blade cleaving Rei-Ginsei’s head, the victorious Hunter wobbled in midair.

Who could miss that chance? Once again Rei-Ginsei’s right hand went
into action, sending out a stream of white light. That was Greco’s wooden
stake, which he’d kept tucked through the back of his belt. With Rei-Ginsei’s normal
skill, D most likely would have dodged it despite his throes of agony, but now it had
the added speed of the combat suit.

Longsword still raised above his head, with the stake stuck through his heart and
sticking out his back, D sent out a faint mist of blood as he thudded to the
ground.
