When Kore followed Professor Dreos after he picked up the egg, he walked past the two dead frogs Leo and Zyn had killed before, as a thought came to his mind.
´What if I..." he thought.
"Excuse me?" Kore asked Professor Dreos. "Can we stop for a moment?"
"What is it?" Dreos asked. "If it's not important, we won´t stop." Kore looked at the two bodies next to him on both sides and responded, "It really is important." Hearing that, Dreos spoke again. "You have one minute."
"Don't worry," Kore said. "It won't take that long."
It was something Kore didn't pay any mind to when he used Reborn on the egg. He actually just pressed it away without reading it, like it was some kind of pop-up.
[There is a corpse in front of you]
[Do you want to let it Reincarnate?]
[Yes/No]
[No]
[Would you like to punish the sinner?]
[Yes/No]
[Yes]
[There is a corpse in front of you]
[Do you want to let it reincarnate?]
[Yes/No]
[No]
[Would you like to punish the sinner?]
[Yes/No]
[Yes]
Kore answered both the questions of the system and then continued wanting to punish the sinner. When he did that, a jet black and blood red puddle appeared beneath the frogs, and a loud ringing scream could be heard from both of the frogs. Out of the puddle also came sounds that sounded like someone screaming for help. There were truly terrifying noises that one heard from there.
"WHAT ARE YOU DOING, GERUS?!" Professor Dreos asked thinking about the possibility of an attack from Kore.
[The gates to hell have been opened to these and no mercy has been given].
[The egg feels a comfortable energy spread around in the room].
[90% hatching completed]
The puddle spread further around the ground, and long red arms could be seen coming out of it. They closed around the frogs and pulled them into the puddle. But after they were in, the puddle didn´t close. One could hear a scream louder than the ones one could hear anyway. When this scream stopped, one hand once again rose from the puddle with a white light ball between its fingers.
[You have been rewarded for putting sinners to death].
With this message, the two light balls flew in the direction of Kore. He didn´t know what it did to him, but he was sure as the system stated that this was a reward, so he didn't fight against it and simply let it come to him. Once the light balls touched his arm and his back, they simply sank in.
[+1 Agility]
[+1 Senses]
When he saw these messages and his stats going up, Kore definitely understood that this was his reward. Kore himself found everything he had seen a bit creepy, but if he himself freaked out, the others would get wary too. They may have even started attacking these red arms, and because Kore didn't know whose arms these were, it is quite possible that would have been a problem for everyone present.
After the arms went inside again, the puddle vanished again and a few messages appeared.
[The dead feel strong hate against the user due to his judgement].
[The dead will never forget the day the user banished them from the mortal world]
[The gates of hell are closed]
With this message, everything went silent.
"Wha-" Leo suddenly asked, breathing heavily due to his overtired heart. "What the fuck was that?"
Zyn couldn't even process what he had seen right now and only had one thought. ´YOU CAN HAVE EVERYTHING!´ Zyn thought. ´JUST LET ME KEEP MY HANDSOME FACE!´
Even Professor Dreos had his great sword that was on his back before in his hands now and pointed it in the direction of Kore.
The problem was, Kore himself was the one most scared of them all. He knew everything that was happening right now, not like the others. He knew he had just sent someone to hell, even though it was only monsters. He knew the ominous sounds everyone was hearing were coming from hell. For Zyn and Leo, who thought his element was something that let people go crazy, it must have been especially hard. After all, they might think Kore knowingly attacked them with his element right now. Kore now had to grit his teeth and play tough.
"Under a minute," Kore said, with a smile on his face. "Like I promised. We can go now. "
´What´s with that kid?´ Professor Dreos thought having a nervous smile on his face and sweat running over it. ´Is he a Psychopath or what?´ "Hm Then let´s go." Dreos spoke, putting away his sword as he calmed down. "Follow me."
Leo and Zyn were left alone in the dungeon without telling them anything. They just stood there with no words as to what happened right now.
Outside of the dungeon, Kore and Professor Dreos entered a corridor of the academy that was only for teachers. It was fine since he was the accompaniment of Dreos, but Kore still felt uneasy in this cold and grey corridor. When they reached the end of the corridor, the two of them entered a small room with just a table and two chairs in front of each other. On the table was a complicated machine that kind of looked like an old typewriter. There were also two hooded people standing in the corner next to each other on the door side.
Kore sat down on one chair and Dreos on the other. He gave Kore two gloves that Kore had to wear. When both of them were on, they suddenly tightened and a magnetic connection appeared, making them just like handcuffs.
"What the-" Kore wanted to swear but stopped himself.
"I didn´t want to result to this, Kore" Professor Dreos spoke. "But from here on out, these handcuffs will monitor every lie you tell."
