_30 minutes ago_
"Lettuce. Check. Chocolate. Check. Beef. Check..."
*Sigh*... All done, got everything. Guess it's time for home... Can't stand this hot weather anymore.
As I turned my back to the shopping centre, there was a loud sound. Usually, crowded place like this won't be able to hear such sound from an individual. But this time, it wasn't just someone bag got stolen nor some baby screaming. It was the sound of a bomb...
It can't be mistaken, I'm sure I heard a bomb goes off and explode. But, why would someone place a bomb in this deserted place where barely anyone lives here?
What the heck is going on?
Think... think, Kuro.
It could be some underground organization testing their bomb in this desolated place or it could just be an ordinary car crash... Maybe, a gas leak in some restaurant...
Argghhh!! I don't know anymore!! Let just go check it out!!!
As I dashed back into the shopping centre, I saw some people who are terrified and trying to get out of here. Seeing that, my subconscious keeps telling me to also stay away from the danger if I want to live, but on the other side, my curiosity keeps telling me to go ahead.
But I have nothing to lost, no one would grieve over my death even if I die in front of them, and I'm running low on money too. If it just continued like this, I'll die soon anyway. So I just casually walk in, letting my curiosity take over.
On the floor, there's a kid. She's probably around 4 to 5 years old, crying at the sight of her mother being abused by two gangster-like guys...
What the hell are these people doing? At times like this, shouldn't they rescue her??
Or is it because they are scared? It's ten against two, they can win!! Why are they acting like this??
"Can't."
Eh? The man next to me suddenly started talking.
"Those two are some kind of VIP people, we can't attack them or else our life will be crushed. Boy, I don't recommend you intervene in their business, let just watch for now. We can't help her."
"What the f*ck are you saying! Stop being so selfish!!!" I shouted.
Shoot. I'm dead.
Those two bastards have set their eyes on me for raising my voice.
"Hey boy, you shouldn't interrupt our business, it seems like now we've to teach you a lesson."
The left guy starts cracking his knuckle and smirk at me. I closed my eyes waiting for the punch to come, don't want to be blind at least. *Sigh*... I'm seriously looking really lame right now...
But... I wait and wait... nothing hit me. What's wrong?
Argghh!! I can't just stand here and wait for the punch!!
I slowly open my eyes... only to see... a young man dressing in butler attire standing in front of me, blocking the gangster man attack. As I was about to thank him, he turned around and glare at me.
Hey... hey... what did I do to you? So damn rude.
But, seriously, he's strong. In a blink of eyes, the two VIP gangster-like guys have been defeated, even I couldn't even believe in my own eyes. Forget all his rudeness, I really really owned him a lot for that. If he didn't help me out there, I would be beaten into a piece of shit right now.
Suddenly, the guy lends me his hand and smile. What the heck is this change of attitude?
"Hello. My name is Haruto, since I helped you out over there. Would you mind doing a favour for me?"
Knew it. This dude isn't the type that would do something for free... Arghhh!! He knew that I can't refuse him when he said it like that. Jerk.
"Sure, no problem. My name's Kuro by the way."
Woaaa... Look at that sparkling smile, piss me off. Damn you.
"Haha, thanks. Then..."
Suddenly, four giant muscular men immediately appear and backed me into a corner. One of them struggling to put a white cloth in my mouth to drug me and it makes me hard to breathe. Ah... I'm... so sleepy...
As my consciousness faded away, I feel a strong power being forced out of me. Having no control over my own body, it suddenly moved on its own and stand up. What is going on? Is this one of that scenery in some manga that the main character starting having strange superpower?? Nah, it can't be, I'm not even fit to be the main character anyway.
One of the muscular men step up and give me a knife, bowing his head down. Hey... hey... What with this (another) change of attitude? Suspicious. But even before I have the chance to run, my hand move on its own and reach out the knife. What am I doing!? Run, Kuro!!
I, no, my body raised the knife at the man face and...
... Stabbed him.
Blood spattered everywhere, his face is a total mess with the knife still sticking out of it. Did I... just murder someone?
My brain stopped for a sec there, but my body won't. It pulled the knife out of the man brain, dragging the blood and meat out. Meat. Human meat.
Aren't this a sin for killing someone? Please... please... someone tell me that this is just a dream! Let me wake up from it!!
No matter how many time I think about it... This is definitely... not a dream.
It's a reality.
A twisted reality that I have to face.
Not giving me the chance to overcome this shock of killing someone, my body started to move again. It running toward the crowd, where all the innocent civilians are standing. No! No! Please... no more!! But the scream of begging in my head didn't stop my body from slashing these people, even the kid I just saw a few seconds ago is dead, the woman who was being abused too.
"Ah, boy. Sorry for not helping the woman just then... Please... please... just spare me!! I'll make sure I helped everyone instead of standing there!! So... ple--"
Before even finished his sentence, the man who I was just shouting at before, is also dead. I cut his neck, all this sin... How can I beg for tolerance after all this!?
Stop it... please... stop it!! Anyone... please...
"Ahh!! Spare me!!"
"Will I also die like that kid!!?? No!!!"
"I'm sorry!! I'm sorry!!!"
Hearing all the people begging over and over again. I want to close my eyes, I want to cover my ears and pretend as I've never done all of this. But my body won't move!!
Then... the silence finally befell, everyone... is dead.
"Hahahaha!!! I'm going insane!!! I killed them! I killed all these people!!! Aren't I deserve some praise!!??"
My head hurt, what is this feeling? Shouldn't I be sad at this?? Why am I... excited...?
"Good job, Kuro. Welcome to XXXTorturing Game."
I turned around, realizing my body has gone back to normal, I can control it now. But the jerk...
"Shut up!! What the f*ck? Game?? I just killed them for you, be more thankful!!!"
I'm definitely going insane... Crazy... What's wrong with all this bloodlust? I want to kill more!! More!!!!
To be continued.
