Chereads / Evolution: God's Trial / Chapter 11 - Blood Stone

Chapter 11 - Blood Stone

Ray's heart was beating faster than usual.

It was his first time personally killing people.

He thought he wouldn't feel a thing, but as he killed them, it made him think about many things.

It was because he was a law-abiding citizen, and ever since he was born, laws were always there.

Blackmail, Assault, Murder, etc... If you commit such crime, there was always the law existing as the sword of justice.

And right now, there is no law holding the people back. Everyone could do anything they want.

And even if Ray himself started killing everyone or do every possible misdeed, nothing was stopping him.

And now as Ray committed something that would normally end his life before, Ray had really found himself to be a member of a different world, there was already no turning back.

Right now, he could lord over people, made them do his every bidding, and then kill them if they opposed him.

But such a deed is only someone short-sighted would do. What Ray wants lies beyond mere satisfaction on holding other's lives on his hands.

What Ray always wanted was to never feel weak. And right now, since he was taken by something to this place without even given the chance to know how? and why?, he felt weaker than ever.

That's why earlier Ray said he was weak. And right now, Ray wanted to become stronger than ever.

Strong enough to oppose even the one who had taken him to this place.

No matter what, and no matter how long it would take, he had decided... he will be...

Even if he would have to receive the rewards given by such being as his own, he will gladly use it.

Ray felt like there was a fire on his heart as he felt his resolve strengthen.

Moving on, Ray put his thought towards the fight earlier.

Still, the fight earlier has baptized Ray. His moves were a little off earlier because it was his first-time killing people.

In fact, now that he thinks of it, he could've killed them even without using 'Bullet Time'.

The skill 'Bullet Time' is an overpowered ability, since it increases someone's reaction through the increase of time perception.

But since the skill had a long cooldown, the skill should be used as one of his aces.

Because now he had experienced what it's like killing people, next time would be easier.

Still, the fight ended so fast. Fighting makes him stronger, and fighting creatures with intelligence rather than the dumb zombies oddly gave him a kind of satisfaction he never found before.

And now Ray wanted more of it.

Fight!

He wants to fight a more satisfying battle, like the ones he had on his dreams.

'Shiva...'

Thinking about Shiva, Ray smiled. Remembering their fight on his dream, Ray felt hot and excited.

'I want to fight!'

Thinking about the monsters in the wasteland, Ray's lust for battle had grown stronger.

Feeling excited, the smile on Ray's face even looked a little twisted.

Ray then looked on to the group of people watching from a distance.

He has expectations for them.

"Had enough of watching?" Asked Ray with a smile.

Ray had felt their hostility towards him from the start, and now he's expecting another fight from them since they must be also targeting him.

He still hasn't had enough to satisfy his lust.

Ray then slowly walks towards their direction.

...

As Whitehair's group saw the smiling Ray still currently lusting for blood... they had no second thoughts, they had then started running to the mansion's portal hurriedly.

They had seen what happened to the Bald man's group earlier. The scene had immediately extinguished their thoughts of acting against Ray. And right now, as they saw the monster aiming for them, there was only one thought on their minds.

'Run!'

The threat of death had immediately erased all sorts of ideas they had.

Earlier, they were watching Ray and the Bald man's confrontation.

The fight they wanted to happen had come, and they wanted Ray to at least kill a few of Bald man's people as they would then attack the exhausted them.

If Bald man and Ray fought, he thought that Bald man's group had the highest chance of winning, but since Ray had the capabilities to kill a lot of zombies in a limited time, white-hair thought that Ray shouldn't be underestimated since he could probably take several people with him, or that's at least what he wanted to happen.

White-hair thought that from all the people, his group had the highest chance of coming on top since they had 4 awakened, and if they attack them after a hard-fought battle, they would easily win.

However, what happened is contrary to his expectations. Ray didn't just take several people out... he took them all out, and all that in just a short period.

Seeing Ray butchering the Bald man's group in seconds changed Whitehair's mind immediately.

From his eyes, he saw no hesitation in Ray, and he was even the one who initiated the attack.

From Whitehair's eyes, he saw no soldier in Ray, he was a killer. Ray is a coldblooded killer.

And now seeing Ray smile and seeing him walk towards them, white-hair immediately called for the group's retreat.

"Shit! That's a psychopath, let's run towards the mansion!"

His members then followed him immediately, they had also seen what happened, and they realized the danger of the current situation.

"Shit... Let's forget about my stolen sword! F*ck, that punk is dangerous!"

"I think, I could try seducing him"

"Old hag, do you know about the dancing funeral?"

...

Seeing them Ran away, Ray stopped on his tracks.

"That's a pity..." he murmured to himself.

Seeing them ran away as their lives depended on it, Ray had now calmed down.

He checked the surroundings.

Besides the sleeping angel floating, corpses of zombies and people littered the ground.

And not just that, besides the unrecovered throwing knives he had thrown earlier, there are short swords from dead people everywhere.

First Ray moved away from the Bald man's corpse and recovered the throwing knives, as he then checked the initial rewards, he had received from killing the Bald man's group.

Ray had received 50 small souls and 5 stat fragments from each of the awakened he had killed including the Bald man. And the unawakened on the other hand, each gave 10 small souls and 1 stat fragment.

All in all, the total of small souls and stat fragments he had received from killing them is 210 small souls and 21 stat fragments.

Ray then shifted his eyes on the Bald man's corpse, he could see some items that had appeared from nowhere, if in-game terms then it was what you call drops.

The other people didn't drop anything, that's why Ray was curious what it was all about.

After coming near the Bald man's corpse, Ray could see what the drops are.

[223 small souls (souls)]

[16 stat fragments (item fragments)]

[Blood Stone (system item)]

Ray is thinking that these must be the items inside their group's storage.

But the item fragments number is strange, but when Ray thought about how the other of Bald man's members not dropping anything, then the leftover stat fragments of a dead member could be automatically sent to the group's storage.

Ray took the souls and the item fragments.

[223 small souls received!]

[16 stat fragments received!]

Ray then checked the final item.

Area 1.

An angel that looks like a little girl is currently angry at a person.

"Damnit! We almost had it! Why are you lazy! you should've killed more zombies! Now I lost! I was almost the winner!"

The one the angel is angry at is the woman lazily lying on the ground.

*Yawn

"Why so angry? isn't 2nd good enough already?" The woman lazily replied after giving off a yawn.

"Grrr" The angel tried to appear fierce but with her appearance as a little girl, it wasn't super effective.

"Now~ now~ that's enough, just tell me if there's a way to go to another area" The woman said as she could be seen playing with a red stone.

"Oh! A way to go to another area? that's easy! You just need to..."

The atmosphere was lax but if you were to look from far away, then you will see that surrounding the woman, was corpses of near a hundred people wearing orange clothes.
