Chapter 50
They say that the world is not a kind place for everyone. They say that not all good things will be given to you. It have more chances of you getting bad luck than you getting luck.
But, is luck really existing? Or is it something that people just create in order to give views to what good things happening to each of us. That all things that goes in our way mean part of luck. Meanwhile those things that would be a hindrance to us is bad luck.
As for me… even if those things really do exist of not.. My life is always a mystery. For… I never know when will my luck strike at me, so do my bad luck.
The evening came in an instant. I had no idea what I would feel. They are all lying to us. They are all making up something to make us be caught in their trap. But… what can they gain if they let us in?
And if they are not humans… then… what are they?
Thinking it thoroughly as I had time a while ago to think about it, there was nothing else I can think of other than the fact that I may be a part of Mors Magnus plan.
He was the one that Saypher would fave before he go and Kill the queen of the ice fortress. But… just like what I think about it… among all Magnus that was in the game, only Mors Magnus have no life. He was created out of technology. That is to say, his personality is based on AI. Artificial Intelligence that was fixed to do one goal. That is to not let Saypher have his easy way. The fact that he should be injured due to the last battle he had with the Cane Magnus it give an effect in the process of him fighting with Mors Magnus.
I can clearly remember how greatly anguished I was when I fought with Mors Magnus in that state. Saypher, the character that I am using, he was heavily injured back then which is why I used all the buffs I can use in order to defeat Mors Magnus…
Thinking about what happened, it now do make sense. I thought that j was just having some delusion but… if it was really like that… then we can defeat them!
Ding
A notification popped in front of our screen
[Hidden special quest]
[Look for the core of AI and switch off the system before the day ends]
Due to the fact that it was the system who told us, it confirmed my theories.. So it was really part of the army of Mors Magnus huh…
But the Core AI?
How am I supposed to look to the one with a switch??
Closing my eyes, I tried to think about it but no matter how much I tried to remember where it came form, I was left with no other words than the fact that I had no idea who that was.
I had no fighting memories with a person who as the core of the AI. It was also said that it was a hidden special quest… wait what?!?
Not just a hidden quest??? Not just a special quest??? But… a hidden special quest??!
My eyes widened in surprise. I just noticed it now. It was so rare that I was surprised to that extent. If that was so rare… it just means that the reward would be much much better than any other one is.
I received a tap on my shoulder, it was Kiel.
“Someonewas following us”
He said with just his mouth moving. There wa no sound to be heard.
Right at this moment, we are separated in groups. As I used all the powers that I have to ask navi questions that would be useful for us. There… I was now paired with Kiel. Saypher and Fiolle was moving on their own as Migo was backing up Kheina. What is our goal?
That is to burn the plants in this place
.
.
.
“The— the plants! They are all burning!”
Someone shouted as we hear how people from that place started to look at each other.
“Now, the event begins. Whoever capture each targets would have their rank raise twice”
Her sweet and gentle voice, none would ever imagine that she is not a human but a piece of metal given with intelligence.
AI… artificial intelligence that reached its peak, being able to produce prototype that have a very similar features to human being, none would ever imagine what sacrifices it took for them to be produced.
Not all things are free. Not all things can be given to you. For most of it… all of it… it has payments you have to pay for.

“Ethan did say that once the plants are burned… the place will change. But… I never know that it would be this much changes…”
Fiolle who have no idea what was happening is looking around the place who's ceiling looks like a hologram. A pieces of screens you can only see inside a device which is usually a television… some parts are even hard to understand but one thing is for sure. All of those things are not something that you can see in these days. It was way to advanced that it was horrifying.
“Now… what comes next is those enemies…”
Tthud thud thud
“And just like what Ethan says… here they comes”
In no time, she was now surrounded by lots of students… that was all robots.
.
.
.
“Kheina hold my hand”
Giving his hand to the girl, Kheina grab it and they both escape the group of student robots that was looking for them.
“I didn't know that all the things that Brother Ethan said would come true… it… was like a deja vu…”
With them successfully burning those plants that was hiding the real identity of this place, they were able to break the illusion that was created by this big done. None of them questioned what Ethan said. In fact, the believe in him since his eyes shows how eager he was to do something.
Having no idea about what was happening, the only thing they knew is that, this place was no longer the place it was before.
Things keep on changing, things keeps on moving. It have no stops at all. It was as if every second that goes by, another changes would be made.
But not all changes was beautiful, for some changes… no… most of the changes are not for good. Some of the changes that are happening in this world is not for the better… but for the worst

“Kiel, now!“
As soon as I let Kiel know the signal, it would be the time for him to cover us with his black most. When that do happens… it just means one thing.
We are hiding from the boss.
If I had my calculations right, that guy Lucas would probably go chasing Saypher. As for that Charlotte, she was going to be my opponent.
That is what I thought. But…
Something is not right…
Isn't she supposed to be here? If she isn't here… then… where is she?
I look at the robots that was surrounding us. All of them are normal robots. None of them are those who have names..
No… this can't be happening. Did we do the right choice?
Where the hell is she?!!!
.
.

”Two kitten running away… will go running here in my way“
Charlotte said with a small smile on her lips. Some glowing lines on her body can be seen. It just means that those are the parts of her body that was the cut of her parts.
She was different from what she was just a while ago. If she was creepy before, she was way more scarier than ever.
Her eyes being full of black as some white blue green lights can be seen glowing on her scene…
It shows the pinnacle of the human robot that was created with great artificial intelligence
”In five… in four… in three… in two… and in one..“
Thud
”Got cha“
