Zero noticed the crowd lurch an inch forward, so he raised his right hand and looked at them all. "This offer is only valid for Aurora. If a single one of you makes another move in this direction, I will cut your limbs off before having Tyler heal you enough for you to die of starvation." Everyone flinched back, and Zero looked back at Aurora, who was now staring at the girl laying face down on the ground next to his foot.
Zero stood by and simply watched to see what Aurora would do. After multiple minutes went by and she still didn't move, Zero sighed before he reached out his hand towards Aurora. She flinched back at the sudden movement from his hand. "Do not be afraid. You saw me as a person when we were in school, and their for I view you as above these other people." Zero gently grabbed Aurora's chin in his right thumb and pointer fingers before lifting it so she was looking at him. "Go stand over there."
Zero turned Aurora's head towards the direction of the lined up people before letting go of her chin. Zero watched Aurora walk six feet away before his hand flashed out, a whip materializing before slicing her in half. Her body's fell to the floor as Zero looked back at the group, his face now conveying disinterest. "I have become bored, and there for my mercy is running thin. I will give this choice to all of you currently still alive. The last one standing alive will join the group of 12 over there. You have a minute to be the last standing."
Zero looked at the group of 12 that were all standing in horror as sounds of evident fighting broke out in the group. he zeroed in on Jackson, finding he had moved a couple inches away from were he had been standing when he lined up previously. 'Trying to run?' Zero shrugged as he looked back to the group of 17 who were now fighting over multiple body's that were lying dead on the floor. "30 seconds."
The surviving 10 doubled there efforts, and just like that, another 4 were dead. Zero's vision was drawn to a single boy in particular, who had killed two others in the time Zero had been watching. 'I haven't seen him before. How interesting.' The second thing that drew his attention to the boy was that he would take the souls once they left the bodies. 'Window, is there a Host in this group of people?'

Unable to reveal the information. please ask another question.
Zero figured it would say that, so he wasn't bothered by it in the slightest. As he continued to watch the slaughter happen, he continued to ask the Window questions. 'Window, are you able to tell me when others ask you about me?' There was silence in return, so he asked another question. 'If I were to pay you 5,000 souls, would you be able to tell me when and who has asked you about me?' This time, a Window did appear in response.
-Notice-
Host has previously stated they would not pay for information.
Zero scoffed as he was positive there was someone behind the Window now. 'I said I would not pay for information that should be provided for free. And this is not information, but a transaction.'
-Notice-
All Windows are connected to one System, making your transaction offer possible.
Zero narrowed his eyes as he read the Window. He noticed how the information both stated there was a System, and that there were multiple Windows. He also noticed the way it said the offer was 'Possible', but didn't take the offered souls. 'Window, How many souls would you require to complete the transaction? You make it evident that it is possible, however I'm guessing you require more souls to consider it.'
-Notice-
Unable to reveal the information. please rephrase the question.
Zero rolled his eyes. 'Forget about it. I am sure I do not have enough Souls to pay offer anyway.' Zero was pulled out of his thinking as he saw the last person standing and looking at him from within the group of bodies. Zero smiled as he looked at the scene that was unfolding. The boy from earlier started speaking. "I am the last one st-." The boy's words were cut off as he fell forward to reveal a small girl standing with what looked like a rock in both of her hands. Without pause, the girl leaped onto the mans down and dazed form before repeatedly slamming the rock into the back of his head.
The girl didn't stop until blood was everywhere, and the back of the boys skull was paste. Zero once more clapped at her creativity to hide until it was over. "Well done. now go stand over with the other 12." The girl did as she was told, never letting go of the rock clutched in her hand. Zero turned to the line of 13 people and spoke. "11 of you are here by chance, two by the will power to do what must be done. The world has changed, the world is now lawless. It is full of monsters, some creatures only seen in fairy tails, and others human. Those two on the end will have a chance to survive, well, would have at least."
Before giving them time to think about his words, Zero lashed out. Using his last full finger, as well as the nearly broken finger on his left hand to create a thicker whip. The whip sliced through all 11 of the people's necks, before missing Jackson and the rock lady, who had crouched down and out of the way of his whip. The devilish smile returned to his lips as he looked at the two who were now charging in opposite directions, Jackson for the door, and the girl for Zero himself. "The girl had the right idea, however if your not a Host, your a simple soul."
