Chapter 330 The Secret Trial II



That very thought had made me finally calm down, and once I did so, I finally felt a shiver go down my spine after realizing what kind of situation.

\'What am I going to do here?\' I asked sternly, yet as if the AI could hear the uncertainty within my voice, it began to cackle once again.

\'Why you!-\' Yet before I could say anything I was quickly cut off by the seemingly primordial voice that echoed on no walls and came from every direction at once.

[Every secret trial is made to see how a person would react depending on the scenario they are being put in, and since I can control this realm as if I was controlling another limb, I do not have much of a problem finding out the answer to that question]

\'Soooo... I\'m just going to become a character in a role-playing game?\'

[Yes. I was thinking of putting you in that game you love some much. Terraria is it? But after looking into it a little more I decided the lawsuit on the breaching of copyright laws simply wasn\'t worth the hassel]

\'Understandable.\' I replied with a stern nod.

[So instead, I created my trial... You will have all your current abilities, memories, body, and capabilities, the only change will be the place you will be thrown into.]

\'O-kay? So you\'re just throwing me into a random setting and expecting me to survive or something?\' I inquired with a slight tilt of my head, not yet sure where to look other than just the void that seemed to envelop everything around me.

I was used to talking to people and not looking them in the eyes, yet deep down, I always felt as if I could imagine them in front of me while speaking to them.

An example was Hela. Seeing how often I had talked to her, she projected an image of what she wanted to look like if she had ever gotten a body, allowing me to imagine her in front of me as a spoke to her every night and day, and sometimes even in my sleep where I would look her in the eyes and have conversations for hours... Conversations that both of us would know about and remember.

The only exception would be the recurring dream forcing itself into my conscience and forcing me to see what I would try my hardest to avoid seeing. The fights were beneficial, yes, but I still did not want to see them.

Every time I watched over them I could feel my heart being squeezed by a thousand hands, not relenting for a single second and making sure to use the grip strength of someone whose life depended on it.

Why? I didn\'t know...

Besides that, my point was that for an odd reason, I could not imagine the person or thing or whatever it was called or referred to as I could not imagine it.

[The scenario will be given to you when you enter the domain... Good luck]

As the voice drifted into my ears, I could not help but stretch my hand out and try to call out to it, yet when I had done so, I saw the scenery around me completely change throwing me into an unknown place that held little resemblance to the void that I had been situated in before.

Landing on my back, I slowly began to get up, taking the surroundings in with a slight grimace at my landing.

The area around me was filled with color, from the vibrant roses that shone with a crimson red, while the grass which I had landed on reflected the light of the sun, shining a lime-green light into my eyes, yet not for a second did I flinch or close my eyes.

The sky above was clear and blue without a single speck of pollution, something that showed when looking at the plant and animal life within 500 meters around me.

Every single one of their soul flames, whether that would be the shattered and incomplete soul flames of the plants around me or the soul flames of the animals that played, slept, and hunted one another, each had flickered with more life than I had ever seen.

\'Where am I?\' I thought for a second, however, in the next moment, I could not help but feel the overwhelming feeling of wanting to facepalm at my own stupid question.

What was I thinking? Why would I ask something I already knew the answer to?

[This should be the place that AI thing put you in. From what it had said, I can deduce that the thing probably wanted you to find out what your mission is without its help. All I can say is that you should probably just try and talk to as many people as possible and try to beat the mission in the lowest time possible]

\'Much easier said than done.\' I chuckled with a self-deprecating smile

I knew this was going to be hard, but the whispers had kind of forced me into this situation. They made me feel a hunger, a lust, a desire like nothing I had ever felt in my entire life.

It felt like a void within me had been filled in that very moment I had thought I would be given a challenge, something that would actually force me to fight, kill, and maybe even as a minimum, sweat.

Sighing in slight discontent, I quickly used the chaos aura that I had been suppressing this entire time to create wings onto my back as if it was an instinct.

With a single flap of my wings, I caused the ground below my feet to cave in while spiderweb-likee cracks traveled along the grounds of the grassy planes without stop.

Due to the chaos aura within me finally being unleashed, I watched as the once vibrant and full of life flowers withered at a visible speed, as if the life force was being snatched out of them in real-time without a speck of remorse.

However, this did not matter too much to me as in the next instant, I had already flickered away from where I had stood before appearing several hundred meters away while moving at an extremely fast speed that broke several sound barriers.

Animals and wildlife, in general, fled as if their lives were on the line, those who had more sensitive hearing falling worse victim to the sonic boom than those who had simply run away.

After finally flying for over a few dozen kilometers in a few minutes, I observed the ground for changes, looking at the different soul flames that flickered differently depending on the creature, the things and people around the creatures, and how far away from the creatures I actually was.

Those who seemed to have a family either hid in fear of what I was capable of while others, like the parents, for example, stood in front of their cubs and growled at me from a far distance, not that I paid them any attention.

Those who were alone simply ran away, not trying to act tough since there was no one they could act tough in front of. Risking their life for something so dumb as pride was simply not worth it to them, making me wonder if maybe, just maybe, these animals were more intelligent than humans.

But what did I know?

However, after searching the lands for what seemed like hours as I watched the sun\'s placement change over time, slowly creeping closer to sunset, I finally felt, or to be completely precise, I saw what I wanted to find this whole time.

In the distance, I watched a group of people who each had a yellow soul flame flickering intelligently deep within them.

I could tell that from their reactions, they could not feel my presence and instead, were more startled by the fact that the beasts and animals in the area that would have once attacked them without hesitation for entering their territory, were running right past them without even glancing back for a single moment.

\'Really make you think huh...\' I mused with a sly smile, yet I did not think about how stupid they must have been for much longer, and instead flapped my wings once and flickered from my position, now appearing right in front of them.
