Chapter 35: Training (End)
...
"Do you know how to use it?"
"Yes.."
She nodded.
She can't think of nodding a no. So it must be yes.
'She must be forced.' He thought.
'But this is the cruel world! If you just know how this world made me. You're welcome, if not, then it is not my problem anymore.'
He wants to say it to her directly. But he can't. This is a cultivation world where strong eat the weak.
He moved his back and started to speak no more.
'Let us go!'
He made a sign.
'Mmm.' A nod.
.....
After 2 hours of patiently waiting in the sandy place. He seems to get a killing vibe.
"Ugh.." He freaked out. He moved his head a little.
"Don't!" A feminine voice reached his ear.
"What did you do to me!"
"Did to you? Haha!". He smiled.
"Don't you even know? You killed the team... Tsk... You don't even know how to be thankful when I save you."
"Eh..."
She got a misunderstanding.
Yet, for some reason, her memories are still blurred.
'What happened to me? Did I blank out after connecting in this simulation field?' She thought.
'Ugh! This stupid Organisation!'
'I can no longer be the machine you used to be! I'm not just killing! I'm taking lives!'
She can't say no.
"I am weak... I am not strong... with this weak body, I can't make my own justice." She lamented.
'I wish that I did not live anymore. but....they took me as their own child... .'
'Give me shelter...food... and family. They took me as their own child. But their not just a family. This FAMILY IS MADE UP OF GREED!'
Her mind is contradicting. Whether she would believe or not! It is in turmoil since she woke up!
'Sins thank you, but I'm sorry... I'm not just the existence you created! I'm purple!'
She looked at the companion she got before the trial started.
"Okay. Then we got to survive first. In order to do that, we need to find a weapon."
She retrieved her hand from his neck.
"Then this is great!" He smiled.
He's excited to kill!
....
Purple Inner Monologue:
'Sigh...'
'It's been two months since I adapted to this ordinary life.'
'I'm Purple, but not Purple.'
...
Her memories are telling her that she's not. She had a family out there.
'I will compensate you for giving me this body! Heavens I will take that hope you've been keeping for.'
'Just you wait... I'll make it to the top.'
She promised.
.....
According to the knowledge, she gets so far...
from her hibernation till now. This world is made up of technology and affinity. Not just affinity! Sins have been using samples to innovate the cells of the human body. Make use of the stones and use it for the mutation. Yet, it is not the information she wanted to know...
'Why I am in this body?'
She wanted to recall her past but no to avail. It was still a blurred. She got little details.
'I need someone to take me into that world.'
'This guy is a good contender... maybe...'
....
Don't worry guys it's the rotation... you'll not gonna die from character switch.
.....
"There are still 8 teams on the field. 3 from the Forest Swamps, 2 from the Sea Bay and 3 from the Desert."
"We did not expect this year we got this lucky!"
"They're tough even in that age."
"Threat is good too. But failure is still a failure."
"Nope, she's not a failure." Fork contradicted.
"We already rated the teams. Do we need to make it more difficult or proceed to team fight?"
"I guess so. I have been watching them for almost 6 hours! That I got a butt ache!"
"Hahaha!"
And the rest of the 5 commanders also laughed.
....
The rest of the teams have passed the trial. Since they also got their very own weapon.
"Yes! We made this far!"
"Thank God!"
"Yes.. yes.."
They happily smiled. It is the feeling of passing the hidden trial. They were scared of dying!
"It's because of your teamwork guys." The leader of the team of 5 joined the chat.
They're different from the rest. They're made up of innocent-looking members.
It is not just the feeling of getting killed or fearing to die!
It is the thirst of survival!
If you look at them carefully. They're not just smiling! They're something!
It is Wicked!
...
2 hours ago since trial 2 commenced.
Every time the man-eating animals saw the team.
Blood painted!
The team of 5 is killing at their own heart! The joy of Killing!
This Wicked Team!
...
"Huff. Huff..." This female is gasping for breath.
"We barely kill them all."
"Thanks to you. We survived."
"No." He contradicted. Then continued...
"It is because of your heart."
"Heart?"
"Yes..."
"It is your reason why do you want to live. What is your reason."
"Ah..." She got a nerve feeling from his deep voice.
'Is he the person I been seeing for the whole time? He killed all of it. Those man-eating animals died on his way! He wiped them all! His eyes... it's killing me!'
His eyes that time wasn't just a bright silver! It is dyed with red!
"My heart, my reason." She pondered.
"My existence!"
"Nevermind..." He ended the conversation.
Then the female mechanical voice echoed.
"Trial 2: Hunt and Kill finished. Tap your watches to exit the trial."
This voice echoed all throughout the field.
Purple, Threat, Jade, Void, and the rest of 8 teams heard this.
Dou taps her watch.
"Trial 2: Hunt and Kill finished. Exiting from the trial will commence after 10 seconds."
The time ticked...
'I can no longer see him... but... we still have time, maybe we can get to know more.'
"I want to know him... more..." She muttered.
Of course, Slaughterer did not hear it.
Until 10 seconds passed.
He saw her smiling...
"If you're still alive in the future... I will let you know more about me." He muttered.
"If..."
He also faded.
Of course, his sense is an eye-seeing. As an Assassin, he can feel it.
He can feel the air, the movement, and the beat of her heart.
...
"We're back!"
They're back on their respective places!
Soon many familiar faces can be seen in the field.
Some were happy but some were not.
Their eyes are red. Not because of killing! But their friends aren't here! They died!
"Sob... sob..."
Those who felt the air lamented.
"We're basically living here to survive... It is a must to become strong."
Fork sighed. He looks at the newbies in a white gown.
"You need to face this trial before you need to become an assassin!" His voice silenced the field.
The 29 persons were left standing on the field!
They're just separated.
Threat, Purple, Jade, Void, Dou, Slaughterer and 5 Wicked people, and the rest of 29 personas.
The hundreds of participants did not make this far.
Almost 70 per cent died!
"This is why we need to become stronger! Our world is dominated by the heavens! We can't do anything... but we can grow! SINS WILL HELP YOU GROW! ALL OF YOU NEED IS IN OUR HANDS!"
Soon the phrases of Sins vibrated in their minds!
You gain what you expect!
You kill what you desire!
They can overcome this world!
"Now, since the Trial ended. A team fight will be taken."
"There will be a 10 minutes break. So please, be prepared."
That announcement ended.
They can feel the pain of their body. Some have this broken arms, scratches, or even mutilated!
A gal in a white gown walks forward. It seems she's coming to his way...
"So, idiot? How come you alive?"
"....."
He did not even respond!
Then he talks.
"Did you see me here died?"
"You!!!!"
"Nevermind, did you know how I suffered from that shitty trial? I almost died! And I met a freak! He's so much like you!!!"
"Why do you worry too much?"
"Eh...."
...
"Ekkk.."
Void felt his neck strangled a little bit.
He looked at the rest of the remaining survivors.
He's back on the track and field! But there's a little of them.
"So our Corpse died that much." He can only lament.
.....
The threat also felt unhappy.
"I want to meet that freak girl! Haha!"
....
10 minutes had passed since the break. Some aren't that ready yet.
"A team fight is going to take place."
The announcement rang into their ears...
To be continued…..
