Chereads / Dream Tower / Chapter 37 - Chapter 36

Chapter 37 - Chapter 36

Seeing the young man who she speculates as Mammon the sin of greed Eleri was in doubt and thought 'Why do we always find the targets easily? Why can't we focus more on the background of the game instead we always find the target immediately? Is there something the game is hiding, for example the reason Satan's background which is a school the reason as to why it is called ghost school was probably because the school was already abandoned and the reason is because Satan killed everyone back then'

'So now we are at a casino but we already found the target, what is the reason for this?'

"You also think so right, L?"

Suddenly hearing a motionless magnetic voice Eleri was startled and turned around abruptly with a figting stance but saw that it was Eru

"Eru?" She was stunned then remembered what he said and she asked in disbelief "Could it be you…"

"AHhhhh! Forgive us! Forgive us!"

The pair of woman and man screamed as they were dragged out by the bodyguards of the young man away

Just as Eleri was thinking she suddenly heard Eru say "I'll take care of it, you just go and enjoy the casino"

As Eru walked pass Eleri, Eleri lowered her head as she grabbed his shoulder

Eru was confused and was about to speak when he suddenly heard her say "Eru, I already know your ability and I also know that it has some side effect, so I know if you overuse it you will d--"

"I'm not gonna overuse it" Eru refuted her words as he said coldly and his eyes glowed in the dark

Eleri was still hesitant as the force on Eru's shoulder tightened but after a long time Eleri sighed as she let go of him and said "You better come back alright, understand?"

Eru was silent for a long time before he hummed and nodded as he left

Eleri stared at Eru's fading back and sighed as she went to find Kaylus who was already at another gambling game without her noticing it

Looking at the ceiling Eleri thought 'I guess this game will be over again soon without me finding the true purpose yet of the background

*****

Mammon was drinking at his private VIP room when he suddenly sensed someone and he laughed angrily as he said "How bold of you to enter here"

Eru stepped forward out of the darkness as he said in a magnetic voice "I want to kill you"

Hearing this Mammon sneered as he said "Yeah? Go ahead and try--"

"But before that, I want to steal all your coins" Eru suddenly interrupted and what he said made Mammon more angry as his eyes became bloodshot and he roared as he raised his hand and smashed the floor

As he did the floor suddenly turned gold and everything that touches the floor also turned gold

Just as Mammon was about to laugh he suddenly heard Eru spoke and say "Stop."

Mammon's whole body froze as his ability still continued but Eru jumped towards him as he stood on his back

"Kueh!" Mammon groaned but still couldn't move

Eru looked down on him as he said "I originally could kill Beelzebub and Satan, but…That would require me to overuse my ability which would kill me that's why I died when I fought Beelzebub and he also died"

"I already knew about the regression whenever L dies that's why I became bold- no, to be more precise that's why I proceeded with the plan"

"Now that L is much more stronger then she can probably kill you easily, that's why--"

"--I'll have to kill you myself"

Mammon was shocked and thought 'Is this guy a lunatic?!'

Before Mammon could even think any further Eru grabbed his arm and Mammon widened his eyes in horror and with a 'crack' his arm was broken off

"AHhhhhhhhhh!"

Hearing a scream Eleri turned around and looked towards the room where he saw Eru went

She muttered "Eru…"

"Hm? What did you say?" Kaylus who was engrossed on gambling didn't find anything strange and asked without lifting his head up

Eleri was silent for a moment before she said "It's nothing"

Eru looked down at the cut off arm he himself did to Mammon and he said "Amazing even though it is already cut off from the main body it is still able to reproduce gold"

Mammon gritted his teeth and glared at Eru with bloodshot eyes

Eru played around with his arm before he said "I don't need you anymore, so…"

In a blink of an eye black curly lines appeared at the corner of his mouth as he said "Die"

*****

Suddenly Eleri's hand froze in air when she was just about to put in her coins to gamble

Kaylus was confused and asked "What's wrong?'

Just as Eleri was pondering on what she felt they suddenly heard the familiar mechanical voice sounded

-- Ding!

-- Congratulations for the dreamers in successfully killing the target Mammon the sin of greed!

"What?!""Someone already killed the target?""So fast?"

Everyone else voice sounded as Kaylus raised an eyebrow before he understood what happened and chuckled as he said "Looks like Eru already killed Mammon"

Although this is something worth celebrating Eleri was still uneasy and had a bad preminition in her heart

'It's almost as if…it is the calm before the storm' She thought and clutched her chest

'It always feel like-- there is something we are missing here…'

-- Ding!

-- The hidden game is now ending, the game will now proceed to the next hidden game!

'Wait-! What did it just said?'

"Huh?""What?""The voice…did it just said-!"

-- The next game begins at tournament ring, good luck dear dreamers!
