The Legacy System

Due to the sound isolation of the tunnel, and the darkness making it impossible for anyone to see the danger on the other side, the majority of the insurgents run towards the tunnel.

That place was their last hope of actually running away from this monster that seemed to be after blood and lives. A lot of them regrated ever thinking of doing something like this, but it was too late.

Even the Leader and his lackeys seemed to have gotten frightened by the current situation, but different from those guys running away, they were just trying to put distance between them and Eric.

They were able enough to understand that Eric was in a berserk state right now and soon he would be unable to keep up with the current output and surely grow weak.

That would be their moment to actually counter-attack and kill Eric. At the same time, they were trying to undermine the efforts and actions of each other.

After all, this was a great opportunity for each and every one of them, as long as they were the last one standing, this place would belong to them.

On the other hand, Eric was intentionally making himself look closer and closer to his limit, as he wanted to fill these bastards' hearts with hope.

Only a heart who still clings to hope would be able to feel pain the moment that that beacon of hope was crushed and that was precisely Roy's intention.

By now the number of people he had killed had surpassed the 10.000! SP and Exp points were raining over him, as he kept leveling up.

It had been some time since he last leveled up, but now he was able to level up in a short amount of time, making him quite happy about it.

Furthermore, since these bastards had used his resources they had all grown a bit stronger, and even the weakest was worth over 30 points.

He was bound to make a great harvest here, not to mention that he had the intention of returning to China and having his beautiful revenge against the people there.

Not forgetting in the least that genius doctor from M country and his backing. After all, the best way for him to level up and get stronger was clearly to kill people.

As he thought like that, his bloodshot eyes started even tearing teardrops of blood, as a small trickle of blood appeared even on the corner of his mouth.

It was something expected, seeing his great acting and the consumption of his strength. As finally, his moves started getting slower and his blood leakage grew bigger.

He seemed just like an injured beast at the end of his life, that had failed to actually achieve its goal.

What was bad news to him, was great news for the Leader of the insurgents and his lackeys that found precisely this moment to jump forwards and take the lead once again.

The run-aways and those escaping were quite a bit, but compared to the crowd they weren't really significant. From the crowd of 80.000+ people, only 1 or 2000 had tried to run away.

One could easily understand that Roy's work was far from over at this point, and it looked like he wouldn't be able to complete what he said he would do.

Not only that, but he hadn't even been able to kill the bastard he had lost his cool for, as the Leader of the insurgents was still alive.

"Hahahahah~! God truly has eyes, as they wouldn't allow such a tyrant like you to succeed with your wishes!

Look everyone, this is clear proof that we are in the right, and that devil is in the wrong!"

As if this were a show playing in theaters, Eric seemed to have fully lost his strength at that moment and couldn't help but fall face-first on the ground.

Seeing this the Leader got even happier, as he felt like he had just dodged a train that was coming at bullet speed towards him.

A train that more than 10.000 people and half of his lackeys hadn't been able to dodge. Most of the lackeys were killed by the others, but he pretended to not know this at the moment.

After all, the most important thing right now was to keep his position and lead the crowd towards his intentions.

Looking at their rugged faces and appearances it was clear that quite a few of them weren't happy with the situation and its proceedings, as they looked towards him in anger.

But he wasn't the Leader for nothing! If anything, his oral skills and charisma were real, as he approached the center of the crowd, took a look at Eric's lifeless looking body, and then turned to the crowd screaming,

"Brothers and Sisters, we have managed to take down the demon that wanted to enslave us and destroy our lives!

With this, we can finally claim with confidence that this place belongs to us, and from now on this is going to be our home and our country!

I know that each and every one of you, just like me is feeling the pain and sadness of losing so many of our brothers, sisters, and loved ones, but I am sure that they are happy for us from Heaven!

We have finally and truly obtained our freedom, and that is only due to the sacrifices of our martyr brothers and sisters.

In order to remember their sacrifice and great favor to us, I want to inscribe their names into the walls of the city, so we never forget them.

Not only that but each and every one of you participating in the annihilation of this demon will be awarded with double resources for a year!

In order to remind everyone that we are living in a democracy from now on, we will hold elections in a week, before we commemorate the martyrs of this place.

The one to send them off will be the one they had fought for!"

While there were a lot of people who were able to realize the double meanings in his words, and even his forcing for votes, the majority were pulled in elation by double resources promise.

In no time people in the crowd started screaming, Leader, as the grin on his face grew bigger and bigger.

'BANG~!'

While everyone seemed to grow happier and happier, they were suddenly met with the sound of a big gun firing, and the head of one of the sub-leaders exploded like a ripe melon.

Not only that but the next moment, the voice of a woman echoed through the Nightless Stone City,

"Shameless bastards, if it weren't for Master, each and every one of you would either be dead or treated like an animal.

Master saved you, brought you here, gave you a new home, fed you, dressed you, and even helped you get stronger, and this is how you repay him?

Master was right, none of you deserves to live, I will kill you all!"

It was none other than Hilda, who God knows from where she had taken out a big noisy sniper and had killed the guy.

The Leader immediately made sure to hide amongst the crowd while he screamed back,

"Saved!? That bastard just wanted to become our new Master, there was no salvation in that! As for the rest, that was something we deserved as human beings!

Furthermore, we are people coming from democracy, in this 20th century is barbaric to think of leaving in any other kind of society!

We have the right to select our own leader and way of living!"

'BANG~!'

Another lackey was brought down the same way, as people started to get scared of the distance and weapon on Hilda's hands.

But before they could even think of actually launching in an attack against her, they heard the voice of the Death Reaper sound right beside them,

"You things aren't human! You are just animal waste that has taken human shape. You are just shadowing this planet without worth!"

Hearing that voice each and everyone in the crowd couldn't help but turn their eyes towards the direction of the voice, only to find an evilly grinning Eric.

Each and every one of them was scared shitless as not only wasn't Eric dead, but he was actually standing with a grin on his face and perfect conditions in front of them.

It was quite a horrifying situation!

The one who was the most horrified was none other than the Leader though, as he understood that he was the target of this terrifying monster that was right in front of him.

For a few moments, he couldn't even scream or run away, as no matter how much he tried to scream there was no sound coming from him as if someone had completely blocked his cords.

His body didn't seem to obey him either, as no matter how much he wanted to turn around and start running for his life, he couldn't.

He wasn't the only one, the whole crowd was like that. None of them wasn't even able to breathe in fear that they would offend this demon and be the first ones to die.

To make matters worse, the corpses of the dead people on the ground started shrinking and being sucked out of their blood, as the hills became smaller, and the only remaining's were their bones and skin.

"Tell me wastes, do you deserve freedom!? A dog that bites the hand of the owner that saved it from death, isn't worthy of freedom, don't you think!?"
