As I enter the classroom for training I find that something is different and that's the fact a new kid is here. I look over to see no one actually bothering him, wonder if it's ptsd from me. It's kind of funny to think about as I keep swinging until the class is over and we walk to the next one.
I decide against shadow stepping this time because of the new guy, I need to get a good look at his soul before I do anything reckless. As we walk people make way for me and I just keep going until I sit in the back while the new kid sits in the front.
As the lecture keeps going I start looking into the kids soul to find a link going into it, I look closer and find it's a direct line with a god, and messages are being sent back and forth. I decide to peek in to see what's happening.
'So what about the schools king?'
'I'll go look at his soul now to see if I have anything for the situation." I then see a system notification telling me it's going offline before I feel the gaze.
They keep scrutinizing me for a good few minutes before my system goes back online. They then start conversing.
'I've got the perfect thing, he's killed a lot of people so my murderers graveyard will be perfect when he sleeps. I'll crush all his pride and arrogance making you all set for the takeover.' I know now isn't really the time but god's seem like a bunch of dumbasses.
After the class ends and everyone goes their separate ways, or that's what should have happened if the new guy wasn't a total jackass.
"I challenge you to a duel!" It's like this is a fucking children's card game, I hope he doesn't say some worse lines. I just look back while letting all my pressure and bloodlust loose, the man looks like he's going to fall but he suddenly stops.
"Alright then, what's in it for me?" How will he get past this question? Who knows, but I'm interested. He waits a second before taking out a book.
"This is a knight technique, but if I win you must grovel at my feet." He's totally the type of guy to say courting death.
"Alright then, since your so generous, when?"
"Tomorrow during lunch."
"Fatal injuries or no?"
"No kills"
"Do you want me to have a handicap? Your scrawny ass is going to need one." I get a few laughs for this.
"I don't n-"
"Alright then, let's do the duel like this, if I have to use my hands you win. Sound fair guys?" A discussion can be heard among the crowd before the new guy stops them.
"Why are you asking them? This is our fight."
"So your telling me you don't have some weird thing where you want to see yourself humiliates in front of the whole school? My bad." This get's the whole school laughing and the guy looks genuinely pissed off but I just walk past him while going to sleep.
As soon as I lie down in bed Angelica comes over and I make a spatial tear and shove her back to the shop while I lie down to find my vision fading.
[You are being put under the Murderer's Graveyard, stay alive for 5 hours to return. Your perception of time inside will make 5 hours there be only one here. Just survive five hours in the graveyard or things will get messy]
I open my eyes to find myself surround my a barren field and some tombstones and I only have some underwear on. I wait a second before a rotten hand pokes out of the ground and I just shatter it with a kick. I'm unsure if they can hear me or not but this should confound them if they are.
"Probably won't need my hands anyways." As I say this more zombies start to crawl up and I try to use some magic only to find it disabled, though I can use my hundred scythe and other cultivation techniques.
I take two scythes from my cultivation technique and I start kicking around with the scythe blades on the soles of my feet. I cut of the heads but that unsurprisingly doesn't stop them so I then bash their skulls in but they start regenerating them.
I keep fending off zombies only to find the terrain changing to that of a the roof of a skyscraper with other full of zombies nearby. Not wasting the opportunity, I start kicking zombies off the building but some sort of invisible wall stops them from falling.
I test it out and find I have no such barrier and I keep hacking away at the zombies, managing to kill a few of them but at least double would takes it's place. In the end I keep kicking away when I count that four hours have passed.
I then realize that I have enough stamina and I make more scythes on my legs covering almost all of my leg with blade before I get serious, blowing off the head of zombies as I dice their body into thirds.
I keep this up until suddenly I find myself in a plane that's plummeting rapidly, yet all the zombies are standing on ever imaginable surface as I dig my scythes into floor and I start running to the top of the plane.
I have to hop on zombie heads while always moving to actually make it before I reach the tail of the plane and look to see it headed down to a massive sea of moving hands. With a minute left the plane stops sliding down and full on nose dives towards the sea of hands.
The zombies in the plane all start falling out while I stand at the top counting down the seconds, and with only 30 seconds left I jump off the plane doing a backflip and I start freefalling.
20 seconds, 10 seconds, 5 seconds. As time quickly ticks by I get to one seconds to see the zombie hands just below me and I turn around before putting two finger from my left hand and pushing them against my forehead before pushing them away.
I open my eyes in my bed to find no time had passed.
I was definitely giving that shit the beating of a lifetime.
