Chapter 34
Drip…. Drip…
What was that sound? Is that a small droplets falling? Ah… where am I? Why can't I see anything?
What happened to me?
I remember sleeping and… the world… it was strange… it was as if… everything turns to a mess…
Ahh… the IKINOBIRU…
It was the game I was playing that's suddenly became a reality in just a blink of an eye…
Right… Saypher… Migo… Kheina… Kael… and even Fiolle was there…
Also that damn old scary man…
Eh? I remembered dying after being hit by his missiles didn't I?
Is this the after world? Why is everything seems so dark? Is it the hell whom they are talking about? But… what about those red fire that they would be having to make people be in much pain? I feel nothing special at all…
Ah, it is not as if I did something bad to be in there… did I?
On the contrary, I did nothing in particular to be said as an evil person. It is not as if I kill—
Ah, who am I to talk to about killing someone… if in the first place… I am already a killer— eh?
There was a light? It was so blinding. What was happening?
[Processing…]
'Are you really sure he should continue that? He doesn't look good at all'
'Stop it. We shall do just as what he told us to do. He did order us to continue it no matter what happens…'
'But… isn't he doing too much—'
'Let's just trust him in this… okay? Just like how he trust us to do this for him'
'I really don't know why he was doing this… he is… doing so much.. I am worried…'
[Total number of hearts, two out of three]
Huh? Is there someone talking about something?? I can't fully gasp what they was talking about but…
[Game will then proceeds… in three…]
What was this countdown for?
[two…]
So troublesome… I can't get it at all…
[ one…]
And there was that blinding light starting to get brighter and brighter as it makes me be overwhelmed by it's power.
[Game proceeds…. Game II]

“Cough! Cough! Cough!“
Surprised by how my throat seems to not give me enough time to breathe, I feel like something stocked on it making me feel so stuff.
Ahh… my body doesn't feel all good. It was as if I was beaten into pulp—
The moment I regain the recollection about what happened, my eyes was shocked in horror looking around to see where that crazy old man might be. But to my surprise, it was an odd room that looks like a clinic but the damage it takes can be seen.
”Qher—“ stopping in my words, I feel ashamed to have that kind of voice. To make such sound… hah…
Cough cough cough
”Ehem“
Clearing my throat, I now finally tried to speak.
”Where am I?“
With a slight frown on my face, my body was beat up and have some bandages but… it is not as worst as it feels before.
I mean… for me, it looks more better that I had no problem sitting still in this bed.
A place that haven't gotten any paints for the wall, this clinic bed who seem to be old enough to have some rusty part, this bedsheets that seems to be in a color of white before but it now have a yellowish appearance… joined with the tiled floor who have a visible cracks in some parts…
The sound of the door opening was heard. It soon makes a person appear while holding a piece of tray having some things that I can't see so clearly.
”Oh, it seems like you are finally awake. It is a good thing that you get back to your senses in no time. It seems to be a miracle for me you would ask“
A figure of a friendly lady appeared in front of my eyes. She looks like a nurse while wearing that white uniform. This is weird… isn't it a deja vu? Why do I feel like?.. I have seen this exact scene somewhere before?
”Now, would you please allow me to do some inspections in your state? I would wish for you to recover much faster. After all, there are many people waiting for you to recover“
I can not seem to completely grasp the situation, there is just one thing that I know…
That name plate on her uniform… that spark and that name written on it…
It was too obvious that it was an enemy!
”I as well do hope for your good recovery“
Her kind words, her smile that wants to make you let down your guard, why is she here? No… why am I here?
Isn't she the right hand of Fiolle the flaming fire disaster? She who have knowledge of wrecking a human being with her knowledge about alchemy and modern medicine…
She can make someone a living dead.
I gulp in nervousness as I had those realization. The fact that I am still alive is a mystery. Now include the fact that this girl was here..
Just what on this world should I do? Isn't the guy named Jinre supposed to kill her when the fight begins? Ah— ahhhhhhh now I get it.
Shit… why must this happen to me. First that damn old man then next this shit….
I really don't know what to do… how am I still alive… after all those times?
Whaaaaiii~
[Hewoo, You currently have ninety five harto to at the moment, would you like to use ten of it to answer your question?]
Wai? Ah… did I call you?
Remembering how I asked why.. It makes me somehow laugh on my mind how the system thought of how I was calling wai.
It is not as if I have the time to be this idly… right, first things first. I must learn whether the fact that she is an enemy right now is true.
”Forgive my rudeness, may I know where I am?“
On the original story of the game I played before, it wasn't Saypher whom she fought with. It was Kheina. Due to her stubbornness personality, it leads her to be moved by her words making her fall in defeat. Although it was a luck that Migo was there to save her before she even got killed.
Right… she was a person who was good at triggering others, I would know if what her motives is after some small conversation
”Oh my, forgive me too. It was so bad of me to not tell it to you. Now now, I was thinking how thoughtful I can be to take care of the man who save this whole building from the hands of those idiot higher ups… right right! Let me introduce myself again“
Saying those with her happy smile, I was confused on how she was acting this way. Is there something wrong with her?
”I am Eliza Froldle, nice to meet you, savior!“
Huh? Why… why is she calling me a savior? She did say something about me saving this building from those idiot? Higher ups? Wait.. I don't quite get how did I be of help. Isn't it I who wants to destroy this damn building?
[Hewoo, You currently have ninety five harto to at the moment, would you like to use ten of it to answer your question?]
Wai? Again? I didn't call for you… ahhh, is there something wrong with the system too? Well forget it, the system is always strange in the first place.
”Eliza, there you are. I was looking for you and is hoping th— hm, it seems like that man finally regain his conscious back. I shall leg the others know“
