Kaguya's POV:
She looked at the people in the surrounding and questioned, "weren't they memories of past why do they have life in this time? " she said in fear. Because when system told her that she could see life flames from other people, she immediately decided to check it.
When she looked at the people which system claimed to be memories of past, startled her.
Those people had dark life flames in their body.
Many people there had dark flames which was not completely dark which means they are close to deathdeath but could be saved if treated.
She thought for a while just looking at those people...
'They have life flames inside their bodies. Tha.. That means they are alive. System lied to me.'she thought and her body started shaking from head to toe.
For some time she was in lost state but later calmed down.
She began doubting that system is trying to lie and trying to cheat her and just taking some advantage of her.
'I don't know what advantage it have from me and why, but I feel like something is wrong with this system.or rather everything is... '
When they were teleported here and were given some information about this world. And later in QNA,their question about why they were brought here was not answered.
She was suspicious about it from beginning, but as a normal human she couldn't do anything about it.
She decided to go with flow for the time being.
'I have to get stronger... Even if I have to lose my humanity. ',that was the thought she had.
They were in unknown world where the most dangerous and undiscovered thing existed "magic". and due to which she had an hunch that there will be a time in future when she would lose her human nature or rather her race change.
'They are anyhow going to die.I don't have anything to save them.If I kill them then they will .... 'She stopped for moment.
" System, "
"..?... "
"Why do they have life flames in them? Weren't they memories of past? " Kaguya asked.
[Yes.. They are memories of past. Their life flames from past were also replicated here. ]
"But isn't it drawback to my ability? "
[You are weak now and you haven't advanced your ability or yourself.. So you can be easily fooled by mere illusions at this moment. ]
[But worry not, this trial if you manage to clear it you will be able to discriminate between illusions and real one. ]
Even though worldly system explained her she had her doubts in her mind. She was not an idiot but the situation she was in was something new to her or rather it was new to everyone.
"Okay", she said.
'I don't know what it is but I have to do this, I am getting some bad feelings. I think if I don't do this it will come to me negativity later.
Should I do it or not? Will it come back as a regret if I don't do it'
she started thinking and lost in her thoughts before getting answers to herself.
'But I have already killed ten people here.And got some benefits. But it doesn't mean I will kill people just because it will give me benefits.'
She again moved her eyes towards the people and looking at the situation she decided...
'Alright, even though I doubt that system is lying to me I have no choice but to do it.But looking at this situation even modern medical technology couldn't help them. And here I also can't save them. Rather that letting them suffer and die I have to end their suffering and make their death painless,atleast it will give some peace to their minds.'at that moment a thought rang in her mind.
'does system mean this? healer's job is not just to heal but to reduce the suffering? 'this was the thought clicked in her mind.
Waiting for some time, holding her breath, picking her courage she decided to do it.
She took her sword in her hand and went close to an elf.
That elf was a male elf with blonde hair and handsome face. He had pointed ears, pale skin and his body was covered in blood.
The elf was calling for help, "Please save me saaavv..."
Kaguya went close to the elf man and bowed to him.
"I am sorry but I can't save you, But I think I can end your suffering. "
At that moment that man stopped for 3 seconds and spoke. "thank you for your hep.. help. "
He said and closed his blooded eyes.
"May gods show you path for afterlife, may your new life be happy," Kaguya said in respect.
"Please rest in peace", said kaguya and slashed the elf man's head.
His head dropped onto ground before his body collapsed.
His body started wriggling without head. It lasted for some minutes before all life energy within his body disappear.
[You have successfully killed a High Elf. ]
" Their are no flames left now", she said, joining her hands.
[+100 Courage points. ]
At that moment her eyes went to that man's head.
His eyes we're closed but his tongue was out of his mouth and his cut neck was dripping blood like a small stream.
Kaguya clenched her fist and gritted her teeth and moved from that site to further place.
She didn't lose herself nor she wavered to kill and similar to that man she paid her respect and killed many people.
[You have successfully killed a High Elf. ]
[+100 Courage points. ]
[You have successfully killed a Elf. ]
[+70 Courage points. ]
[You have successfully killed a Dark Elf. ]
[+50 Courage points]
[You have successfully killed a Beastkin. ]
[+47 courage points. ]
[You have successfully killed a Human. ]
[+45 Courage points. ]
...
[+50 Courage points. ]
...
[+25 Courage points]
When amount of courage points dropped she asked system about it.
System answered that, at first you increased your courage so you were rewarded points but later it will also be depend on level Or strength of that person.
[+37 courage points]
[+100 courage points]
[+20 courage points ]
[+93 courage points]
[+1 courage points. ]
[You have successfully killed Humans/Elves/Dwarves/beastkins/demons. ]
[Congratulations! You have collected more than 1000 Courage points. (1000/1000-completed) ]
[Now when you heal any person in future you will not get the backlash due to it. ]
Kaguya was curious about it so she asked about it.
["..... Can't answer it right now. Please clear the trial... "]
That was only answer given by system.
She didn't bother to ask it again and decided to continue what she was doing.
She didn't kill anyone after getting 1000 courage points because she was hungry and she needed save her energy and prepare things for spending night in this place.
She stopped for a while and after thinking for sometime, she decided to go to the forest for finding food.
'I cant stay near these corpses, even if they are claimed to be just memories. I have to go back in the forest and find a good and safe place.'
She took the sword in her hand and went towards the forest.
She looked back once and again started walking.
But when she entered forest after walking for some time she heard some noises.
But,When she was about to check it, she felt as if someone is following her.
And when she looked back,what she saw kept her eyes wide open.
