Kill!

"W-why did you do that?" The black-haired kid asked shocked as the chains holding him down were all cut down freeing him.

Ha! You really thought I was going to just kill this kid?

I was thinking about it.

I won't lie.

But then I saw the fear in his eyes.

And I thought, if he wants to die so bad then why should I be the one to kill him? If he truly desires death then he can just kill himself or something, there are plenty of sharp objects in this lab and that monster is still on the loose so it wouldn't be hard, and if he wants to live then I had done my good deed for the day.

Either way, there's no blood on my hands and I can rest easy.

"Why didn't you kill me?" He once again asks this time glaring at me slightly.

Ungrateful brat. Where's the gratitude? I just freed you.

"I don't kill kids." I tell him as I power down my lightsaber. "And if you wanna die so badly then go kill yourself on your own terms, don't ask someone else to do it." I finish as I turn to leave.

"Where are you going?" He asks as he tries to get up but his knees buckled and he is forced back to the ground.

"Why do you care? Don't you want to die?" I reply not turning around.

"I..." he starts but ultimately gives up and I leave the room.

If he wants to kill himself then be my guest.

I gave him a choice and now the rest is up to him.

~~~

"If I lose it all, slip and fall I will never look away! If I lose it all! Lose it all! Lose it all! If I lose it all outside the wall, live to die another day! I don't want anything, I'm just here to...BEWARE~"

"Stop singing and let me kill you!"

"Tch, what a buzzkill." I mutter as I back-step an overhead strike.

So after getting out of the room and leaving Emo boy there to contemplate his life choices I had once again made my way through the halls, I wasn't walking as slow as before because this lab was starting to creep me out and I wanted out.

But suddenly a wild guard appeared blocking my path!

And that brings us to now where this 5'11 man in steel armor is continuously trying to cut me down by waving his weapon around wildly. I still have no fighting experience but my stats dwarf this fodders by a long shot so everything he is doing I see it in slow motion.

It's kinda funny watching him fail so miserably.

I lean to the left and dodge another strike.

"Need some help there?" I ask mockingly.

He tries to swing left in a wide arc aiming to sever me in half at the waist and I just hop over the attack.

"Shut up and die!" He screams in response.

He goes for a stab at my midsection and I slide to the right dodging it.

I know I should be taking this seriously and be killing him then dipping but I can't help but smirk as he gets increasingly pissed off at the fact that he can't hit me.

"Stop moving!!!" With the frustration building up, he raises his sword up high, leaving his body full of openings that I could take advantage of, and brings it down toward me.

"Okay." I shrug my shoulders and stop moving Dark Zuben in hand.

He wasn't expecting me to just agree, but that didn't stop a sadistic smile from emerging on his face as he brought his sword down on me.

*Vrrrrrmmmmm*

Right before it makes contact with my shoulder, I power up my saber and parry the strike, without wasting a moment I thrust my blade right into his chest and it slides in without resistance.

"W-what?" He stands there eyes wide open for a bit before he looks down at the blade penetrating him and then at me as blood starts to spill out of his mouth.

"I-impossible, y-you're j-just a t-tool." He stutters with a disbelieving expression on his face as his blade falls to the ground. Coughing up some blood he falls to his knees, I take this opportunity to lean in and get right in his face.

I grip his chin and make him look at me.

"No! I'm am vengeance! I am the night! I am Batman!" I declare loudly with a deep voice as I whip my blade out of his chest splattering the wall red as his body falls down to the ground dead.

[You have killed an enemy! +50EXP 5CEXP]

So that was my first human kill and I did it after quoting one of my favorite superheroes.

Huh. I don't feel anything. Weird. Is it because of the system? Was it because I wasn't taking it seriously? Or because he was a piece of shit? Meh, either way, I know I won't have an issue killing later on so, in the end, I guess it doesn't matter.

Though I don't get why he was so hell-bent on trying to cut me down. I mean after the first time when I effortlessly dodged his attack he should have given up and run away with his tail between his legs but instead, he got pissed and continued to attack me like an idiot.

Was he just that dumb? Was he just that arrogant? Was he just that stupid? Or was it a combination of all 3?

Also, why did he call me a tool? Did he know that I was grown in the tube or something? Is there a brand somewhere on my neck or face that I didn't notice yet? I have yet to see a mirror so I have no clue.

"Meh, It don't matter now. That cock sucker's dead." I muse as I power down my lightsaber and continue moving forward.

~~~

"If that doesn't scream mandatory boss fight I don't know what does." I shake my head disappointed at this obvious trap.

I was walking around the abandoned lab, well it was more like running because the overhead lights started flickering all resident evil style and I wanted out now more than ever when I entered a hallway that had these big ass ominous-looking double doors.

As an avid gamer, I have an obsessive urge to complete all quests and side quests I come across just so I can see the fabled 100% completion rate.

But this is real fucking life.

And I'm not going to risk it all for a title.

Or at least that's what I told myself but when I saw the exit I had stopped midway there because something engraved deeply within my soul told me that I must complete the quest given to me before I can leave or I will regret it forever.

[-Flashback-]

"Freedom! It can almost taste it!" I shouted joyously as I sprinted toward the exit.

[Warning! If you leave the quest area the quest will fail automatically and the penalty will be forced upon you!]

"Godammit!" I skidded to a halt mere inches away from the door.

"I forgot about that. Stupid fucking game." I grumble as I turn around and walk away from freedom reluctantly while cursing this bullshit system.

[-Flashback-]

And that brings us to now.

With the Dark Saber already powered up.

A foul expression on my face.

I walk toward the double door and push them open.

A bright light blinds me as I enter the room forcing my eyes shut, but I walk through anyway not at all ready for what is to come.
