Will Valve’s PerspectiveBonus Chapter (part 24)______________________I suggested to Akai to leave a room big enough for Icarus if he ever woke up. That room consisted of a bathroom for himself as well as snacks, just in case Icarus would jolt wide awake for something to eat and return to doze off for a few minutes before conversing with us.But that wasn’t the case.As I entered the room, my eyes widened in surprise. He was there. Icarus was awake. However, the way I pictured it wasn’t that of an intense scene where Icarus would reject my offer and attack me for kidnapping him inside of this place without his mother. But none of that happened.When Icarus met my gaze, he had a biscuit inside his mouth. It was the snack I left on the table. As I glimpsed on the desk, only the wrappers were left behind, and not a crust was left from the plate. I believed Icarus was wide awake moments before I entered his temporary room. But even though he was already up, Icarus didn’t make a sound.

“I’m sorry for excluding you from our talk. But I believe your brother told you everything you need to know. And I also am aware of your situation - that your parents are in the hands of my father, and he will reward you for bringing me back to his hands and taking me away from the Crimson Guild, or whatever that means… Look, I’ll be blunt, Hina. I care about your parents, and I don't want my father… I don’t want the prime minister to threaten you with your parents. But if the Crimson Guild are willing to protect these people, and your brother deals more harm than good to us, I’m afraid I will have to trust those people more than your brother, who was labelled by the news as a murderer. “ When Elena explained those words, Hina lost her cool and planned on hitting her. Elena saw through everything. But despite my sister’s actions, she wanted to take a hit. Considering what the daughter of the prime minister had mentioned, she was willing to sacrifice Hina’s parents for the sake of prot

I was framed by the Crimson Guild. I could still remember that time that I had to save people inside and outside the portal. As soon as I knew that the monsters had the intelligence to bait me and kill the people outside. There wasn’t anything that I could do but prevent the people from dying as much as possible as the monsters massacred them all.I told the entire group about everything, and I was never a part of that slaughter fest. When I was inside that portal, I knew I had to save those people. Even though I didn’t know them, I desperately clung to hope and stopped those creatures from dirtying their hands. But since I was not powerful enough when the invasion happened, some people died while others left with injuries in their names. From this day onward, I still dreamed the same nightmare, hoping I could save more people if that happened again. When the group of survivors heard my narrations, some believed me while others shook their heads in disapproval. Every person present i

Fainting now would be unfavorable to the group. And I didn’t want to force things to happen, in spite of being the only killer of the team. ‘Maybe resting right now would lead us to victory?’ I thought. But, then again, I knew this was a risk that I had to take. If I, somehow, collapsed on the spot and was unable to pick my gun and kill those monsters, these people would die with me… And Hina would die with the rest of them. I didn’t want to make that happen. So instead of bottling up my fears, I relayed my message to Hina. As I turned around, I motioned my fingers enough to catch her attention and shouted, “Hina! I’ll rest for ten minutes! Can you do something about the approaching monsters?” Hina already had her barriers up the moment I fired my first bullet against those monsters. She had been protecting this place without me issuing her a command. My sister was too focused on defending when I forgot one thing about her. Hina still had her golems surrounding the base. They w

The Komodo Dragon was a master of ambushing adventurers where they did not expect it. Even my system described the monster as what I had envisioned, instilling more fear to everyone who faced him. The people who caught a glimpse of the terrifying beast cried a river of tears as they miserably crawled their way back to a safer distance.As soon as I dodged the Komodo Dragon’s attacks, I finally had the chance to study the rascal. This reptile had the same characteristics of an Earth Dragon. The only difference was the appearance, scales, and their abilities. The Komodo Dragon was just like the ones we had on the surface back from the real world. But instead of the rough but pale skin of the reptile, this Komodo Dragon found inside the portal had armours made of rare metal exclusively found in this world. And when I appraised that material, my system told me it had high resistance against physical and magical attacks. Well, it wasn’t a surprise, considering we were up against a fucking
