Chapter 37: Chapter 37: Bloody outcome

'Page 2 fast,' I thought fast in a panic to check the state of my health.

Energies:
| Life: 7/20 | Physical: 40/40 | Magical: 40/40 |

I removed the leaf of the elder, placing it around my hip, covering my wound to stop the bleeding, resting on the floor, and watching the other four fight.

One of them noticing me still alive decided to run toward me with the intent to kill, and Anita intercepted him blocking his attack with the shield I made.

"The sword, use it now to stab him!" The moment she heard me Anita slashed the sword with panic inflicting a small wound on the left arm of the enemy descending all the way below, leaving a cut on the hip, and the left knee. The blood from his body and the sword too started dyeing the white floor once again.

'She's shaking,' I noticed her hands trembling.

'I guess she never killed or hurt anyone before, even though it is a game they're still souls and living beings, so that reaction is to be expected, yet unnecessarily dangerous,' I scorned at her inexperienced self, not hating her for it, just feeling that it could very easily lead to danger. I got up, holding the greatsword the best I possibly could, using it as a support to stand steady.

"If you won't do it Anita stand aside."

She turned her head to me briefly with a serious gaze, yelling back, "I'll do it!"

The guy stabbed my maid's foot the moment she distracted herself by looking at me with a sharp stick making her scream from pain and then he kicked the shield making her fall to the floor with her back faced down.

"Trash!" I walked to him and did a short slash cutting the stick in two.

"You half bitch," he punched my face at the moment I cut his leg a bit, leaving a shallow wound.

From the force behind his fist, I fell in pain, letting go of the big sword that landed on his foot crushing his thumb and making a small crack sound.

He howled in pain like a maddened beast, gritting his teeth filled with adrenaline, jumping on top of me, and as he went to punch me, I equipped a hammer, surprising him by smashing his right cheek as I received his fist.

The teeth together with blood fell on the floor and on my face as he took the hit, causing me to also spit some of the liquid after receiving his solid punch.

System: Last stand skill activated, you'll be immune to death for ten more seconds.

He punched me once more as I smacked him with my hammer, we filled the floor with more crimson, screaming in pain.

Then we traded blows again making it even worse, we glared at each other angrily as we regained our breath preparing for one more trade of attacks.

His face was half black half red and I noticed his swollen left eye which made him blind on that side thanks to the power of my hammer.

As we were about to exchange blows one more time a sword pierced the man's head from the left side which traveled all the way to his right side, coming out of his cheek. I looked at the hand that was holding it, realizing it belonged to Anita who must've gotten up meanwhile.

As we finished fighting, the other two fell at the same time on the floor with Mielle winning, due to having the better weapon. 

The shadowy figure opened its arms to the sides, giving the final announcement.

Admin: The individuals Mielle, Anita, and Flamerahh have won, the rewards will now be decided by the leftover 9 administrators based on the solo performance and the teamwork.

'Meaning that this one is an admin, and yet is not taking part in the choices, is there a reason to it?' I looked at him, noticing a bit of green under the cape.

'The mister worm from the tutorial? What's he doing here? Perhaps since the tutorial is over he gets to be an administrator for the rest of the game? Possibly to help the other ones? How many are there? 10, 20 administrators? Who are they?'

Admin: You all may keep one of three selectable rewards from the screen in front of you, once you choose you'll be teleported back to where you were, the loot of the corpses will go for the one who did the most, Flamerah.

The figure disappeared the moment the last word reached our ears, leaving us in a bloody bath.

I looked at the three rewards in front of me, finding a screen with peculiar information.

Reward 1: Potential +1.

Reward 2: Skill Point +1.

Reward 3: Status Points +2.

"What should I choose Princess?"

Upon hearing those words I glanced at her and asked, "what are the options?"

"10 health or 10 magical or an evolution for my job maid."

'Seems like the rewards differ,' I returned my stare to my own, clicking my tongue. And then I heard Mielle's voice, saying her own rewards.

"I have either, 2 strength, a seed skill, or a crop skill," she added, passing softly on her hair without knowing which to pick.

"Honestly I believe Anita got the best option with a free evolution on her job, I doubt that's easy to obtain. As for Mielle, choose the one you find best since a skill for both things would be good to have."

'Every single one of my rewards seems tempting except the first one as I don't know what it does, so I'll get it,' I touched it and heard a voice before getting teleported back.

System: Player Status updated.

Eventually, we all get teleported back including the now-deceased fairies who appear in the room we were in before.

"Seems like it has been settled," Eyon spoke then stood up, and bowed slightly in my direction seeing my body dyed in red.

"Welcome back your highness, I am Fafia one of the old elders. I will be at your service from here onwards, as you've proved yourself to be worthy in more ways than one, captivating my admiration and respect."

"Seeing as my parents didn't join me, neither did you two, I have yet to understand if I can trust any of you four," I glance coldly at my parents who remain seated without saying anything. And then they apologize upon feeling bad inside as they feel the pressure emanating from me.

"A true ruler doesn't sit back like that. Father, mother, we have known each other for two days, and you were able to betray me in such a short time," I clapped at them 5 times, each time stronger than the earlier hit, then I leave the room after storing all my weapons back to the inventory.

Once I get in the room along with Anita I head to the bathroom where I bathe in the water without feeling its coldness as my blood was boiling with anger.

Anita closes the room door and then walked slowly as her foot still hurts, all the way to the bathroom, kneeling behind me, washing my back silently in pain, and then gave me a hug, noticing tears or perhaps water drops falling off my eyes.
