Chapter 13: Test 1: “The Delivery” 3

Crow knew that he would only end up wasting time if he tried to steal puppets by directly mugging the participants, and so, he decided otherwise, a move that would make it easier for him to acquire puppets.

He didn't really like making others lose the test, but from what the Robot had said, owning more points, meant that he would find life easy during his stay inside the nine worlds.

And so, he would be doing everything in his power, to earn as many points as he can, of course, he didn't intend on stealing everyone's puppets, but at the very least quite a bit of puppet, especially since one puppet only earned him 400 points.

He had been running all this while, and had finally stopped outside a shack, he read from the blue hologram outside the shack, the name of the team, then before he acted on it, he first took a small glance at his own shack, he didn't find anything suspicious.

So, Crow raised his voice, and spoke, "Okay, listen up here, team San! if I don't get your puppet now, I will be destroying your shack, you know what happens then don't you?", there didn't seem to be anyone inside the shack, they had left it empty, thinking that no one would bother with their shack.

This was a good offer for them since they could still steal another puppet and win that way, but if their shack gets destroyed, they were out. Still, time passed, and no one responded to Crow's call.

Some people had stopped to look at what was happening, the rule that stated you could destroy a shack, also said the way to do it, was by clicking a red button, hidden inside the shack, still, that wasn't the way Crow planned on doing it.

He looked around, but saw that no one was responding to him, 'Okay, so you're not even gonna reply, han? since I don't know what they look like, I guess goodbye then!'.

With that, Crow, punched the shack with all his might, still, that only served to shake it a bit, but no damage had happened to it, 'Hah! it's quite sturdy, han? well, guess I will be using it for the first time on this, then!'.

Till now, in the history of this test, 'The Delivery' test, there hasn't been anyone, aside from two, that had destroyed a shack with their own strength, those two were also C rankers, and one of them was the record holder for the most points acquired before the start of the first test, at 14 thousand points collected.

Crow touched the black katana strapped to his belt, this item was called the sword of death, an SS-ranked weapon, his father had left for him, it had adapted to his strength, and became a C ranker sword instead, still, it was obviously stronger than other C rank weapons, it might even be the strongest C rank weapon.

It was covered in chains, that, according to what he had seen from his father, could also be used to fight with, aside from that, this sword could only be used by Crow now since his father was already dead.

His father, Zanfuel, had made it so, that only the people he allowed the use of this sword, could use it, not even the Reader, could use it, if he wanted to, after all, Crow's father, was also an SS ranker, and a player (a user of the 28 abilities), and just like the Reader, he had also got to the sixth level in his ability, which was the same one Crow had acquired, the Night Walker ability.

Crow proceeded to hold the sword of death in his hands, he held it like a baseball bat, and kept it sheathed, for now, everyone was watching him, they didn't believe that he was trying to destroy the shack this way, after all, they had also read the rules of the test.

Still, Crow hit the shack beside him, using the sword of death as a baseball bat, and putting all his force into the strike. In the next second, the shack came crashing down, it had been destroyed with just one hit.

No one could believe it, some even thought that the shack wouldn't be that hard, and tried to use their abilities on the other participant's shacks, but the shacks weren't even scratched in that process.

Even the Robot, who was sitting on the giant silver throne, about 800 meters or so far from there, was shocked by this, he hadn't expected to have such a strong participant, he had heard of the person that destroyed a shack with a single punch.

And, about the one that had lashed the shack down, and now, he witnessed the third time by himself, it was done with a sword, but it would be more correct, to call it a baseball bat, or even a club.

"Hah! hahaha! who knew I would be so lucky, I just witnessed the third time a shack was destroyed by a participant's own strength, in the entire history of the Reader's Challenges, only two had done so before him, and they are now one of the strongest and most influential inside the nine worlds, hahaha, fellow viewers, is it possible we are witnessing the birth of another legend?", said the Robot.

'This is better', thought Crow, as he strapped the sword of death to his belt again, he then looked at a little blue window that had just appeared above the destroyed shack, the same robotic voice spoke, and said what was written on it.

"Team San has been eliminated! they were not able to defend their shack, and as such, they have lost their first test!", as soon as the voice stopped, three figures a little far from where Crow was standing, turned blue, and were teleported out of here.

'They must be team San!', then in the next second, a small puppet, that was identical to the two he had, appeared in his hand, with it, also came a notification, it told him the following, "Due to your achievement, of destroying a shack with your own strength, you have been gifted 1500 points!".

Then another message was sent to him, Crow had just closed the floating brown book, he opened it again, and read, "A viewer has gifted you 100 points for your incredible feat!", a second later, another similar message appeared in his book, this time, the viewer gave him only 50 points.

Still, it wasn't like Crow would complain, he accepted all the points they sent his way, 'Hah! this pretty great han? well, onto the next shack, now!'. With that, Crow ran toward a nearby shack, it seemed like a young woman was running toward it, but she had stopped, as soon as she spotted Crow there.

This shack was owned by a team called, team Tao, it only had two members, one was Tao, and another was a woman, Ella, 'I guess that's the woman, han?'. Crow did the same thing again, as he said in a loud voice.

"The same thing will be happening to this shack if I don't get a puppet! team Tao, show up here with the puppet, I will count to ten, if you don't say anything, I will destroy the shack, eliminating your team!", he stopped to take a breath, then continued.

"Remember, I will get the puppet, either way, this is a chance I am giving you, you could always try to steal another puppet later, well, one, two, three...", when Crow reached five, he heard that same woman, who had stopped running toward the shack say, "Stop, take it! here it is, please, just don't destroy the shack!".

The woman, whose name was Ella, was shivering from fear, she had seen how Crow had destroyed a shack, not just breaking it, but also completely ignoring the rules of the test, and even breaking them, she had run toward their shack, she didn't know what she was going to do when she arrives there, but she still decided to go there.

Though, when she spotted Crow heading for their shack, she had stopped in her place and wished for him to go away, still, Crow had warned her, and she didn't have a choice, she was the one carrying the team's puppet.

Her team leader, Tao, had just messaged her, they had used the book's feature for messaging, it seemed like it would be free as long as the distance didn't exceed 15 kilometers. In the message he sent her, he had told her, to just give Crow what he wanted.

After all, what Crow had said was right, there would still be a chance for them to win the test this way, but they would immediately lose if they lost their shack, and so, Ella had finally spoken and told him to take their team's puppet.

She held the puppet, which looked like a small Daoist monk statue, in her hand, and waited for the C ranker to come to take it. It seemed like all the puppets were the same, which also made the participants even more sure, of the rule that stated, it didn't matter if they brought someone else's puppet to win since all the puppets were the same looking.

Crow approached the young woman, took the yellow puppet from her hand, and left hunting for his next target, he had made up his mind already, to do everything he could to win as many points as he could, he wanted to be sure that he wouldn't need points during his stay inside the nine worlds.

After all, he needed to win the Curer in five years, half the time the only winner of the Reader's Challenges had needed to win.
