Chapter 7: The First
Idiot..
(Complete idiot..)
Idiot.. Idiot… Idiot..
(Biggest idiot..)
F*ck, that's one of our best chosen ones..
(F*ck!)
I didn't expect him to slice him open like that. Sheesh.
(After what happened to him, I can understand why)
Never thought anyone would get mad over things like that.
(A chosen one, killing other chosen one. I never expected a guy like that would appear)
Don't worry, a beta is running towards him.
(A beta? What's his power?)
Dunno, lets just see if the beta could kill him.
[3rd Person]
'Already, dead? You're so weak, you talk much, yet you die so fast.'
The masked man look at his blade that is covered in blood. He stared at the body of the person he just killed and swung his sword towards the ground, the blood on the sword spattered onto the ground. He looked around the forest a few times like he was looking for something.
'His guide escaped.. I need to find his guide, and I need to-'
His vision locked onto a guy standing between the trees in the distance. Noticing the body on the ground the guy immediately pulled out a sword and put up a stance, ready to fight the masked guy who he suspects as the killer.
The masked man point his sword towards the person, and ran towards him. He was surprised because he didn't expect him to run towards him, but that's exactly what he wanted to happen. Then he pull his hand back, and shaped it like he was holding a spear. A lightning bolt appeared on his hand surrounded by streaks of electricity. The masked guy noticed the thing on his hand and immediately rushed towards him, and cut his hand. The guy screams in pain as his hand dropped onto the ground. And the masked guy quickly cut his head off.
'What was that? Magic?'
The guy crouched and look at the hand that is still holding the lightning bolt.
'How did he make this?'
He poked the lightning bolt with his sword, which makes it buzz. He noticed that the blood on the hand is glowing blue like the lightning. But the rest of the body bleeds normal blood.
Holy shit.. he killed him!
(Damn, that was quick. He's good.)
That's a beta! Goddammit!
(Hey, maybe we should give one to him.)
Are you insane? He goes around killing chosen ones and you want to give him more power to kill more chosen ones?
(Well.. yeah.)
You serious? I think we should give more people powers so they could kill this guy. And MAKE SURE he wont get any. We might end up killed by him!
(You're right..)
Evan stepped out of a doorway with towel over his head with only a black t-shirt and a boxer on.
"Gosh, that was a good bath. Too bad Jack isn't here. Even worse, it's not even a mixed bath, so I can't see Cupa." Evan sighed, he picked up his red hoodie and put his pants on, and cover his body with his cloak.
'I guess I'll go home then. To Jack's home at least.' He left his friends on the hot spring and ran home to check on Jack who refused to go to the hot spring.
When he arrived he stopped in front of the door and kept his hand on the door handle.
'Did I hurt his feelings? I did leave him on the town. Maybe he was mad at me because of that. I mean nobody would refuse to go to a hot spring, right?'
And suddenly the door was opened and revealing Jack behind the door.
"Whoa!" Evan jumped back and fell onto the ground.
"Oh, my bad! You okay?" Jack offered Evan his hand to help him up.
'Oh, I guess he's not mad at me.' Evan went to grab Jack's hand but Jack immediately pulled his hand back.
"Oh, nevermind. I'll get my hands dirty if I touch you."
Evan immediately froze, Jack's words stabbed his heart like daggers.
"Yeah, because I just showered. My hand will get dirty again since you just touched the ground."
'Oh, so that's what he meant.' Evan stood up and brushed the dust off his pants.'
"Wait, where did you take a shower Jack?"
"Oh, there's a bathroom on the back of the house. I just noticed it."
'Oh.' Evan stepped into the house, followed by Jack.
"Where are the others?"
"They're still taking a bath."
Jack, with his boxer and an undershirt, hopped onto the bed.
"What you're going to sleep already?"
"It's supposed to be my turn to sleep on the bed tonight."
"Oh, okay."
"Btw, Evan. Where are you going to sleep?"
"I guess I could just sleep on the floor."
Jack stared at Evan for a moment.
"You know," Jack hopped off the bed and stretch his arms. "I guess you could sleep on the bed, since you're our guest."
Evan blushed and stared at Jack, he never thought that Jack is really nice.
But instead Jack stared at Evan with a disgusted look.
"Eh, why are your face red? Nevermind then, I'm going to sleep on the bed. You go sleep on the floor." Jack hopped onto the bed and cover himself with blankets.
"Wait no Jack!"
Jack immediately fell asleep and snored.
"He fell asleep already?"
Evan stared at Jack, he is annoyed because he didn't get to sleep on the bed because of a simple mistake. He sighed and sat on the chair beside a table.
'Ngh?' Evan then noticed a bottle on the table.
'What's this?' He picked up the bottle and inspect it. The bottle is made off glass and contains clear liquid inside of it.
'Water?' Evan felt thirsty and decided to open the bottle to smell it. 'It doesn't stink. It must be water! There's so few in here, maybe Jack drank it.' He immediately drank all of it and let out a sigh. 'So it is water!' he thought.
Suddenly, the glass bottle that he's holding breaks. 'Eh?' Evan was surprised and also confused. Why did it break? Suddenly, Evan felt an intense pain on his hand. He then fell onto the floor while holding in a scream. His hand feels like its burning. He takes a look on his hand, and his hand was burning from the inside. The flesh on his hands slowly turned to ash and his bones are burning like charcoal. He just stared at his hands with horror, his mind went blank because of the intense pain and he slowly loses consciousness.
Finally! One of them drank it!
(Yahoo!)
Too bad that they'll feel their own power before they get it huh? And it seems like he got something like fire or something.
(That must've hurt)
Well, that's okay, his hands will heal anyway. Now he is a beta since he drank an Ichor. Blood of Gods, which grants power to mortals.
(You think he can kill the masked guy?)
I'm not sure, but at least this guy will be tougher than the guy before.
(True, I hope he can finish him off before he got killed)
Now all we need to do is to send more Ichors to these chosen ones, and have them kill the guy who is interfering with our plan. Because if this goes on, all the chosen ones will be dead.
End of Chapter 7
