PROJECT ZESTA : THE LORD OF CHAOS

" If it wasn't for my love of exploration , I would have killed myself five years ago " (Reading this synopsis, you're going to think it's another novel about transportation to another world, and the mc is going to get bitches and live with happiness and make friends and something like that, but TRUST ME, IT'S NOT.) "PROJECT ZESTA: The Lord of Chaos" is about a mentally ill and unstable young man. When Kayne was about to turn 15, an accident made him forget all his memories, leaving him to face a completely strange world with no friends, no family, no dreams, and no hope. All he remembered was his own name. Years passed and when Kayne reached the age of 19 and entered university, all his expectations about the world burned, leaving him with more mental illnesses and a fucked life experience. The only source of joy he found was in reading novels and fantasy stories that let him wish and dream about being transported to another world, where just maybe, he could find his true identity. Kayne wakes up one morning at 3am from the nightmares he always has when he forgets to take his medicine. He think it's just another long night he’ll have to spend alone in his dark apartment, but surprisingly, Kayne gets sent to another world. In that world, Kayne will go through a lot of events that change both his mentality and his view toward life but not in a good way. As Kayne goes through different experiences and meets other people, he's going to find himself killing and destroying himself from the inside. After reading my novel, chapter by chapter, you’ll realize that the MC is neither a villain nor a hero; he just wants to find his true identity from before losing his memories and try to live his life.

chapter 9 : mouse trap

Chapter 9

It was a trap from the beginning 8 Men were surrounded by Dozens of goblins

"Damn it we're in a fucked situation. Everyone gets ready to fight." Edward shouted out

And at the moment Edward screamed at the others to pay attention the Goblins suddenly started attacking them

All the crew was turning their backs to each other making a circle it was a normal strategy that Edward learned back in his days

Kayne was the first one who kills one of them it wasn't really hard to kill one good hit is enough to cut them off but their speed and their ability to dodge was a problem

After seeing Kayne killing them so easily the fear and shock Start decreasing from other members and started to kill them one by one but the actual problem was their huge number that seems to have no end

And what was in Edward mind was

' their shape isn't bigger than the usual goblin I don't is it some development or I'm just mistaking something ' what Edward though after killing a goblin and then he took a look at how kayne was doing

And he seemed to be doing great unlike the other members that had some injurys

"Huh huh huh they I'm this tired from killing only 7 of them what we're goin_ fuck what was that " not completing his sentence an arrow was about to pop Kayne's eyes but at the right moment he dodged it unconsciously " everybody watch out there's_ " and again not completing his speech The scene of the arrows going through the villagers head was the only thing he saw the blood was spreading on the ground

4 of the villagers are dead 4 left there's no escape

"what should we do ?" One of the members started to freaking out with his hands shaking

And then the moment the goblins saw a weak spot in the villagers defense the quickly took the chance and started to attack together

"Kayne do you have any plans huh ? " Edward shouted at kayne to see if he got anything they can do at that moment But the problem was "Where's Kayne ?"

"I don't know damn these pieces of shit" one of the group said while defensing a goblin attack

"Wait I can see him "

"Where is he ? Huh!!"

Kayne was the closest to the goblins attack but

"The goblins !! They just passed by him !!?"

When Kayne was completely immersed in his lost memory That feeling of disgust, that strange, ominous feeling, was caused by the need that was preventing his savage and animal nature. Goblins don't see him as a human, no, you can't see him as a human, because that aura flowing from him was worse than even those monsters.

Kayne He saw the opportunity in front of him and took advantage of it. He snuck up behind the goblins and started killing one and the other. The goblins were in complete disarray, not knowing what was going on.

Edward also pulled himself together and began the attack on the goblins.

There was only one Goblin left Kayne threw his sword

Idward said "Don't lose your guard because the only ones left are like mice stuck in a corner."

Kayne said" don't worry I got it "even though kayne was able to kill them all but he didn't take the opportunity cause killing them one by one is going to only slow him minimizing the numbers of goblins he can take out

And what seemed to be a goblin being freaked out was walking back

And that moment a weird energy hunted him at that moment kayne rolled up his hands and grabbed the goblin by the neck, and the feeling of taking a soul with both hands seemed to choke him. A conscious soul, not like the young Wind Wolf.

The goblins began to flounder and scream. Edward and the other members were terrified.

But Kayne? He didn't even blink He was listening to every moment of the goblin as he was dying until he took his last breath Kayne  felt disgusted He felt disgusted at how shameful it was for someone to be killed by such hateful creatures

             With dead eyes Kayne looked at the window

Kayne smiles (Jackpot)

"Huh? What is this "

They saw a lot of smoke coming from the same direction they came from

"Oh no the village! The village is DOWN!"

" Fuck did I really jinxed myself? Is this shit Even real ? " Kayne said before he starts running with others acting like he didn't act like phyco jus now

They started running as fast as they could. Edward and Kayne Ahead of the others, they set off as hard as they could, but it was too late when they arrived and found all the houses soaked in blood. The strange thing is that there is only blood, there are no bodies around. .

Edward was very angry and clenched his teeth to the point of blood

" Edward Let's go to the source of the smoke." Kayne said while putting his hand on Edward's shoulder trying to wake him up

And when the were sneaking toward the source of the smoke

There were many goblins surrounding a great fire fueled by the corpses of the villagers All the corpses were men, women and children.

They were blindfolded and tied to their feet and legs. There was a goblin different from the others. A tall goblin carrying a crutch. He looked old and spoke in a strange language. Kayne felt It wouldn't be a good thing if he continued talking and then started whispering in Edward's ear

" are you fucking crazy" Edward said totally surprised from what kayne just said

" trust me we have no chance but this  to stop something bad from happening" not even trying to explain with a serious expression kayne said

Edward knew that Kayne changed From the moment that demonic expression appeared, his years of presence or mentality

completely changed Edward has no choice but to follow his instructions

"The skill of hiding attendance has been activated."

Kayne crept Among them was waiting for the opportunity for Edward to do his part. Edward had to set fire to one of the houses to attract their attention, but no fire was used.

Kayne began to feel worried, thinking that Edward had betrayed him and left all the women and children of the village to die

suddenly...
