Following the muscular man's display of power, the others were dead silent. However, not all were fearful of his actions. Some simply wished to avoid trouble, or didn't care about responding. However, the muscular man didn't mind. He arrogantly desecrated the lanky man's corpse before spitting on it. Then, he looted all the valuables the latter possessed, stuffing them into his pockets like a little rat. Finally, he let out a sigh before sitting on a nearby bench. The hallway was silent for a few…-

As the crimson-eyed man's eyes fluttered open, the translucent, blue screen manifested before his eyes. Arthur let out a sigh before breathing the same, old air that originated from the tutorial world. The tutorial world, a world constructed by the Tower Administration to test newbies, and determine whether they are 'player material' or not. The selection was tough to pass, and those who survived through the tutorial automatically became players, and were transported to the Outer District, a floor below…

Once dinner was complete, Arthur and his family headed out. Night had fallen, and the stars, in all their glory, shone bright. The scene was mesmerizing, and symbolized Arthur's last day on the planet. "When will you be back, big brother?" Lily asked as tears streamed down her face. Arthur's family was traveling to the entrance of Heaven's Spire along with the crimson-eyed man, but Lily couldn't help but feel empty inside. Arthur gently wiped her tears, wrapping her in his arms. "One day, Lily,"…

The mansion was massive, and spanned thousands of square feet. It was a classic, medieval residence forged using oak wood and bricks. It had a small courtyard and several servants working at all times. It was too luxurious for three people. It only displayed how important Arthur was to the Ainsworths, and how big his feat was during the banquet. The crimson-eyed man had spent the entire year planning his assault, and it had worked in the end. Jake, Greg, and Arthur exited the carriage before…

"Are you done?" Jake asked, banging on the door of the bathroom. Although it seemed like Arthur had fallen asleep inside the bathroom, it was actually far from that outcome. The crimson-eyed man was nervous. Jake let out a deep sigh before plopping down on the couch nearby. The crimson-eyed man had been staying with the Garcias for an entire day now, preparing for his eventual meeting with his family. He saw them once during the final exams, but hadn't gotten the chance to interact with them.…

Arthur remained silent. There was nothing to say at that point. He ignored Flecker's remains, and vowed to bury them personally. Then, he approached a certain capsule, in which a golden sphere of pure energy was levitating. Arthur's gaze lingered on the golden object. He observed it silently before caressing the glass separating his body from the sphere. The sphere seemed to loathe Arthur, as it moved away as he approached. 'It's made using a theory I developed,' thought Arthur. He suppressed his…

"If I may ask, sir," the first son of the Garcias, Feyrith Garcia, spoke in a mild-mannered tone. His tone contradicted his actions, which were akin to the devil's. His strikes were precise and destructive. Flames raged in all directions as he passed by, leaving nothing but wastage to everything. "What is the purpose of recruiting that boy?" Mason glanced at Athanasia and Kevin, who also seemed curious. However, they couldn't display it, and continued battling restlessly. The battle was what would…

"It's you…" Arthur muttered, gazing at Gary with widened eyes. The latter's demeanor was casual, as if this sort of thing was a natural occurrence. His halberd was proudly clutched between his fingers. "Of course, it's me," Gary replied, lowering his halberd. He then displayed his back, leaving him vulnerable. However, Arthur and Jake knew better than ever that it was simply a tactic to force them to attack. Gary, instead of attacking, approached Athanasia's wooden desk, glancing at the documents…

"We can talk about this, Cecilia," said Kevin, raising his hands in an attempt to surrender. However, the amusement on his face contradicted his actions, causing Cecilia to grow enraged. Was he playing with her? With a swift motion, Cecilia's foot approached Kevin's abdomen at terrifying speeds. "Fuck you, woman," said Kevin, narrowing his eyes. "I was trying to be diplomatic, so that we can solve this issue without risking our factions. It was a rational proposition… but I guess you're too stuck…

"Dumbasses," said Gregorio, thrusting his sword into Karen's abdomen. The tip of the blade dug into her skin, impaling her internal organs instantly. Ms. Gomez fell to the ground, coughing blood. The searing pain that rushed across her body was unreal. It was like her body was on flames. She writhed on the ground, unable to accept the fact that she was about to die. She looked pitiful. Gregorio pulled his sword out, moving it to the right slightly before doing so. A deep scar embedded itself on…
