"How could you Sara? We are teammates!" A young man with inky black hair growled in pain as he clutched his bleeding stomach lying in his pool of blood.
"Isn't it obvious? If we go through that gate together, we will have to share the rewards and lifetime, but if you die, and I go through alone, I will gain all the rewards." A young lady with long aqua blue hair said.
"You Bitch!!" The young man hissed at her.
"Language! you are about to die, So think of only good things, and don't you love me anymore? If you still do, can you give me these life times of yours?" The young lady asked with a smile.
"You!!"
"Ok. ok, let do this again. Can you please transfer your life times to me?" The lady squat down in front of the bleeding young man with a bloody dagger in hand.
"I would rather die than give it to you!" The guy spat at her, which she dodged.
"Don't be a prick!" She hissed. Standing back up and added; "if I can't get your lifetime, I will take your sister's."
"Don't you dare touch my sister!! Cough! Cough!!"
"Don't you know you shouldn't yell when you are about to die?" the lady asked lovingly, like a mother reprimanding her child.
"I wonder why I fell for a snake like you!!" The guy continued to yell.
"Well... first: I'm beautiful, second: you are a fool." She said and continued, "telling you the truth, I never liked you in the first place, I'm just following you because you can help me with life times, you were really a fool. You work day and night just to look for life times for me and your sister so we can live longer, but look around us, we are the last survivors in the game and the rewards and life times will be abundant, I don't want to share any of that with a moron like you." She said, cleaning her dagger on his clothes.
"If there is a next life I will make you pay!" The guy said with gritted teeth.
"Well, I think I should get going, there are rewards to claim for winning one of the hardest games in AI virtual reality game." After cleaning and wearing her dagger back, she blew a kiss at the young man and walked toward the gate.
"Don't worry, for helping me win this game I will leave your sister one day in her lifetime!" She yelled at him as she walked towards the gate and disappeared in it.
'Is this how I will die?'
'All that calculation to escape monsters and other players only lead me to my death!'
"Cough! Don't worry Sara, you will get what is coming for you!"
"I'm sorry Mira, you have such a useless brother. I thought playing and winning my first AI Virtual Reality game will earn us more life times to live, If I had known it will turn to this, I would have followed your advice. I'm sorry again"
He apologized with tears streaming down his face and he breathed his last.
The voice of AI Virtual Reality game finally sounded.
< Miss Sara, game name; Poisonous queen is the last and only survivor, and the winner of the match.>
< Loading rewards and winning score.>

"Huh? Where am I?" The young man appeared inside an endless bright space, The first thing he did was look around, totally confused.
'Welcome vengeful soul.' A voice sounded in his head.
"What in the mother name!" The young man looked around him, searching for the one who had just spoken to him.
'You can't see me vengeful soul, but you can hear me.' The voice sounded again.
"Who are you?!" The young man asked.
'The question is not about who I am, it's about what I am.' The voice corrected him.
"Then what are you?" The young man asked again with furrow brow and added "...And where the hell am I?"
'You are in my world vengeful soul, and I am the ruler of all games.'
"Ruler of all games? Vengeful soul? What the hell are you saying?!" The young man asked, his frown deepening.
'Some called me the provider, some called me the manipulator, some called me the architect and others called me the Cheating System, I go by many names and forms, looking for souls who have the potential to wield me.'
The young man became silent for a moment then asked, "And I am that soul?"
'Yes, you are the only one with endless potential and unknown possibility to wield me, to make it better you are also a vengeful soul.'
"Why is it better if I'm a vengeful soul? Let me tell you ruler or whatever you are called, there are a lot of vengeful souls out there why did yiu pick me?"
'You ask a lot of questions.'
"My mom said anyone who ask questions never get lost, so can you enlighten me?"
'I chose you because of your endless potential, your thinking and vengeful nature no one knew about.'
The young man was about to rebuke the voice's words, but kept silent because its right. "So what Is our next course of action, I can't be floating here like a mindless fool."
'If you wish you can.'
"No way."
'Ok vengeful soul, you will be thrown one day back in time, when you haven't yet entered the game.'
"Really? You can do that?" The guy asked totally surprised.
'I can do a lot more than that vengeful soul.'
"Stop calling me that, my name would be better."
'Ok Michael, prepare for your revival.'
"Just wait for me Sara, I will show you want a demon looks like." Michael said with killing intent.
{returning host to one day back.}
{Calculating time zone}
{successfully revived}

"Hey Michael, wake up. wake up you dumbass!" A man with brown hair, putting on a blue manufacturing worker uniform was busy shaking the sleeping Michael, trying to wake him up.
"Huh, why are you shaking me so much? If my lifetime doesn't kill me, you surely will." Michael said in a low voice, opening his tired eyes slowly.
"Wake up you dumbass! The boss is around, if he find out you sleeping on the job he will reduce your lifetime again." The man said sternly.
"Fine, fine, I'm up." Michael said, slowly getting up from the ground, after looking around his face changed slightly.
'Wait a second, I'd already lived this day!'
