Chapter 20 - Chapter 20 : An Evil for a Good

"45...million... ?"

Sam nodded gravely "My father told me that at the time, it was the greatest crime against Humanity ever known"

In Bassandia's mind, she didn't know how so many people could die "But how did she kill... so many humans ?"

"My father had told me that when the World War was over, he had read in the newspaper that Linbar had been attacked by the Viper. She used the water treatment system to inject her new poison, which spread all over the area"

"Poison ? Excuse me for asking this, but wasn't it some kind of new weapon ?"

"More like a kind of Alzheimer's mixed with another neurodegenerative disease. The people who drank the poisoned water gradually forgot their lives within days. Then they forgot how to walk, breathe and lost their autonomy permanently, until they died. Or they were sent to Paradise"

Bassandia could not believe that people could make such a radical choice "Don't tell me that..."

The soldier of the empire read his thoughts "Yes, some of the victims' families put them out of their suffering like Carl. And people like Arthur, resigned themselves to doing anything to keep them alive"

The elf began to frantically touch her black earring "It's... horrible. So many people have died"

Sam explained that it wasn't that simple. "It depends on how you look at it. For some people, they're just an empty shell since they were poisoned. For others, they're still there, somewhere. But either way, one thing will remain the same"

"What's that ?"

Sam stood up and put his fist over his heart "The Ranzara, Dracmiros, or any other people who endanger or could endanger the Empire of Nomania must die. Any person who is against our God, Liandras, must die so that our world keeps its purity" he said with an extremely patriotic tone.

With this statement, Bassandia had an idea of who Sam Ricardo was, 'I think I've heard enough'

The princess got up and opened the door "It's getting late. I'm going to have to ask you to leave"

The fire soldier tried to convince his confidant "Um, actually I can't really sleep in my barracks. I lost a bet with my team, so I have to sleep outside" he said, laughing with stress.

In truth, his team had kicked him out after he tried to sacrifice them for the sake of the mission.

'Liar'

But Bassandia played along. She sighed on purpose, "One night. You can sleep on the couch for only one night, and you're out of here before the morning call. I don't want people to get the wrong idea"

Sam made a very awkward reverence to thank her "Thank you for your gratitude, Princess Bassandia"

When he got up, the elf was in her room. She had locked the door and dived into her bed.

'Will you become the scourge of modern history or the Hope of the Oppressed, Lizardian ?'

"I don't know" Maalick replied.

Mars rubbed his eyes with his hand "You know you signed up for this, when you joined the SAS ?"

Maalick proceeded upward "I joined the Special Forces, to find anyone who had a connection with Happy Face in any way. I knew at some point I was going to kill someone. But no matter how I look at it, a murder is a murder"

Mars asked him again, "Would you be willing to do it ?"

His candidate's answer was "I think I might. But only if I have to"

The Olympian warned him, "Between what you want and what you do, there is a major difference. You can have the best intentions in the world and still wreak havoc"

Maalick arrived just below the grid and activated his claws to cut the bars.

The SAS agent explained what he was going to do "I'm going to climb a tree and sleep for the rest of the night. Tomorrow I'll go get some supplies"

As he cut the last rung and watched the grill fall all the way down, the Half-Blood climbed out through the loophole.

His tongue smelled of the carbon dioxide turned into oxygen that Raz had told him about, under the starry night.

But his short olfactory rest was disturbed by the smell of gunpowder, which he smelled far away.

Then he heard gunshots "One of the prisoners managed to escape the Promenade and the Beradors ?"

Mars felt a chill run down his spine, as he looked in the direction from which the sounds of battle were coming 'Impossible !'

He said fearfully " Go up the tree, right now ! We need to know what's going on !

The SAS agent climbed the tree with his claws and quickly reached the top of it. From there he ran, jumped and climbed at an incredible speed.

"Can I ask why I need to go there? I thought it was a bad idea to go into the mouth of the wolf"

His candidate couldn't see it, but Mars could. The smell he had smelled earlier was covered with a deep purple and black evil aura.

'I thought that only Maalick was on this island !'

The Half-Blood sped northward at full speed, but his stamina soon reached its limit 'Even with the bonus of the Gladius of the Hero, I won't be able to hold out like this for very long'

They got closer and closer to the battle zone. When Maalick smelled the scent of the humans more deeply, he hid behind a tree.

He glanced around discreetly, and saw that they were in the same position as the Charlie team. Except that the team leader looked like a pretty fat guy.

Charles kept yelling at his team "Capture him !!!"

In front of the Task Force, three soldiers in the front were chasing a monster. A skeleton with smoking purple eyes.

Maalick saw its jaw talking to someone, but he seemed to be alone.

That is, until he saw some kind of stuffed toy on his shoulder.

It was a woman wearing a black ball dress with diamonds scattered all over it. She was also wearing a shawl of the same color, and had goat horns.

'A candidate !' exclaimed Maalick.

"I wasn't sure, but it looks like I was right. Another candidate is on this island" his Entity confirmed.

The skeleton kept dodging the attacks of the three soldiers. And in the rare moments of rest, he took out pieces of wood carved into points from his Inventory and threw them at his attackers with impressive force.

"I'll help him"

"Be careful. You can't pull the same trick you did with the Alpha Team"

Maalick began to think 'Mars is right. The three members of their group fight the candidate, while the other five enjoy the show. I'd better take them out one by one and then paralyze the other three.

The Lizardian quietly walked towards the 5 team members through the branches. He jumped on another tree as if he was on an undercover mission to be right above them.

The sounds of battle and the perverted cheering of his teammates muffled his maneuver.

"Kill him, guys !"

"Be faster! I want to get back to the sluts of the camp !"

They all shouted and cheered in unison "Come on guys ! Come on guys ! Come on !" several times.

The Lizardian heard Charles say to his teammates with a perverse smile "Hurry up and capture him! Then we can go back to having fun with our toys ! We'll rape, torture and kill everyone until we get tired of it! I'll even fuck merciless the little Witch bitch that Maria promised me !"

Maalick's amber eyes suddenly turned ruby red as well as his Basilisk eyes on his weapon, when he heard his last sentence.

Mars could see that his candidate was enraged "Maalick, if you do what you're thinking about, you'll die ! Charlotte and Raz will find themselves at the mercy of the camp guards, if you rush in without thinking straight !"

[ Quest : An Evil for a Good ]

[ Task Force Charlie is the camp's assault team and is considered the worst of its kind among their peers. They kill, rape and torture many people hiding behind the name of the Church of Liandras for their own personal pleasure. Especially children ]

[ Annihilate Charlie Team, renounce your values and you will remove a corrupting weight from this world ]

[ Charlie Team members killed: 0/3 ]

[ Reward: Skill : [ Weapon Master ]

[ Failure : Murder of 29 prisoners, rape of 14 people and increased percentage of attacks on you and candidate Cole Pierce at the minimum ]

The Lizardian hadn't even noticed the quest notification.

Only one thing was on his mind at that moment "I must protect Charlotte"

"Maalick, no!"

The SAS agent leapt at one of Charlie's team members and lacerated his throat with his claws.

[ You killed a member of the Task Force Charlie ]

[ You have gained 25 XP ]

[ You have gained one level and one stat point ! ]

This outright murder shocked the group, including the soldiers trying to kill Cole.

They all stood there without a reaction, looking at the Lizardian's imposing figure.

But he and the skeleton took that slight window of opportunity.

Cole stuck his piece of wood down the throat of one of the soldiers "Next time don't look away from the enemy, asshole"

His Entity kept encouraging him to make a slaughter "Kill them all, Cole ! Spread the chaos across this world !"

The candidate was obviously fed up with his attitude "Shut up and sit back in your chair like a good girl"

His attackers were back in action when they heard Charles fearfully order them "Pro... Protect me !" when they saw Maalick's symbolic skin color.

The SAS agent ran to kill another member on his right, but he used water magic to create a compressed water beam.

"Take that, D-Dracmiros !"

Maalick ran to a tree to protect himself from his magical attack 'If their team is composed the same way as Alpha Team, and they act the same way. Then...'

Maalick looked at all the members of the herd to see which soldier was wielding which type of magic.

In front of him, there were 4 members 'The big one is probably a sniper or a gunner because he smells like gunpowder and the other two I don't know'

"Always deal with what you know" Mars advised him.

Maalick brought his tail close to him and broke off some bone spines. He coated them with poison and threw one at the soldier who blocked it with a water shield.

"Is that all you got, you fucking lizard ?!"

With his defense still present, Maalick then confirmed his theory 'That's what I thought. They can't do multiple attacks at once. Their training is so that each person can exploit their individual ability in a group, like the Alpha Team'

The Lizardian threw his second thick spine into his foot with more force this time.

His opponent screamed in pain as he felt the needle go through his bones. He desperately asked his team leader for help "Help me, chief !!!"

Poison coursed through his veins and Maalick took the opportunity to hook his long chain to his foot.

He pulled it as he desperately called out to the Task Force Leader Charlie "Charles save meeeeeeeee !!!"

Maalick brought him up behind him and slit his jugular.

[ You have killed a member of the Charlie Response Team ]

[ You have earned 25 XP ]

Meanwhile, Cole tried to predict when and where the next attacks would come with his special eyes 'One will surprise me from afar. The other will try to force me to move, and the last one will finish me off by smashing my skull'

The attacks went according to his prediction. The fire soldier launched a fiery arrow from a bush. Cole ducked so that another soldier could take it in the face.

Then her body began to burn.

She kept yelling "Water ! I need water !!!'

Then she fell down because of this attack which was still burning her body.

The last one threw himself into the battle shouting in rage with his giant axe "I'm going to kill you Intellectum Monster !"

In Cole's eyes, his target was moving with the slowness of a sloth, 'You fool'

He pulled out from his Inventory another piece of wood and threw it perfectly into his eye. His weapon went through his eyeball until it reached his left hemisphere.

The attacker fell flat on his face and the skeleton said "Touché" with a sign of a gun firing.

Thinking he had won, Cole swung his stake at his last target.

But the soldier hit the insignia on her suit and a bluish glow covered her, like some kind of protective shield.

As his attack bounced off the fire soldier he thought to himself, 'There's no way it bounced ! My attack had a perfect angle and my skill should have created a destructive impact!'

The soldier of the Nomanian Empire stood up and said, "No more games bitch"
