100 Systems Invasion 46. Kill or Be Killed
Invasion Day 7Courtyard by Marriott, Fishkill, NYOutside of the deserted hotel, littered by unmoving corpses of infectore staff and guests, a fight broke out.Though, to say it was a fight was a bit far stretch. Calling it a one-sided fight was also not quite right, as it looked to be like Beatrice was beating the shit out of Striker. A physical bully, to put it easily.But, if Seth really wanted to describe it, it’d be a full-front attack on a disabled person.“Gah!”“Fuck–““Argh!”Striker’s pained shout sounded like music in Seth’s ear. He would like to hear it more, watching as the mad Systemist screamed like a girl, unable to move a muscle and wield his goddamned bright red blade.It would be perfect revenge if only Seth was the one who caused Striker to cry his lungs out.“The clock’s ticking, remember?” Beatrice told him over Striker’s useless glare and curses. Nodding quickly, Seth moved out and slipped through the woods, keeping himself hidden.Striker didn’t see him yet, b
100 Systems Invasion 47. The Clashes
Invasion Day 7 Courtyard by Marriott, Fishkill, NY 11 : 27 PM The time showed that only thirty-three minutes left before Seth’s seven days of free access to the System ended. Not much of a time, and definitely way less than he hoped he needed. Alas, that was what he had. It was a short time compared to how long he usually spent laying in bed, scrolling up and down on his feed, or playing puzzle games. It was especially short compared to how long he had planted his feet in the world. He’d like to travel out of space first if he could. But, even giving his two allies a proper greeting would take too much time from his plate. So, without further delay, their most awaited fight, Seth picked his arrow with apparent ease and took his aim. Veesh! The silver-tipped arrow breezed past his cheek, slicing the air like its namesake, and in a second, lodged itself an inch away from the blonde girl’s foot. “I’m warning you,” Seth said, picking another arrow from the dark leather quiver by h
100 Systems Invasion 48. The Last Minutes
Invasion Day 7Courtyard by Marriott, Fishkill, NY11: 43 PMClank!Crash!Seth gripped his Stormweaver tightly, not letting it go even when Sunshard’s sharp glass was against his knuckles. It hurt, even when his Resistance’s point was already up, but the blood spilled in the deserted hotel was not lying.Quickly leaping back, Seth picked an arrow from the dark leather quiver, contemplating for a million seconds if he should use the last Winterion too. Not that he feared missing his target, but it wouldn’t be as useful. Two opponents were fighting against him at the moment.[Bloodlord’s Battle Axe: Basic Skill in use.][Strength + 40%.][Speed + 10%.]Clank!Clank!Seth whipped around, almost breaking his own ankle at it. Thankfully, he could dodge and block Wade’s last three strikes. But he was forced to unleash Winterion on Amy, who almost slipped past Wade and launched her attack at him.[Winterion Effect: 59 seconds left.]Then, he fired his next attack.[Skiver activated.]The ar
100 Systems Invasion 49. Of Full Consciousness
Invasion Day 7Hudson Highlands State Park, Cold Spring, NY11: 58 PMThud!“Gah!”[1.790 damage received.]Seth gritted his teeth as his chest flared in pain.The gunshot wound was way worse than the deep slash Striker inflicted two days ago. Added to the wounds from Amy and Wade, he could only lay on the ground, curling on himself with the pain throbbing madly.“Argh …”He pressed his hand against the open wound, blood slipping through his fingers and painted his clothes red. If he didn’t suffer this much, then he’d be sad because the shirt was a Dragon Ball limited edition he got free from Izuka’s shop.“Seth?”A small voice breached his mind, bringing his attention up. He tried to focus, looking for the source of that small voice through his hazy mind. The pain muddled everything around him.“Seth! I miss you!”He heard quick footsteps, but even raising his head was quite difficult at the moment.“Seth, why are you lying on the ground? You’ll get bugs and worms into your ears and
100 Systems Invasion 50. At the Other Side of the Invaded World
Invasion Day 8 Otaru, Hokkaido, Japan Daichi battled the wind, leaning against the open door of the speeding rural train. Offshore, the wind brushed against his cheek, against the smile on his lips, like a mother caressing her son. He took out his phone, holding it tight in his hand so it wouldn’t fall. A short video, he made a reel no more than a minute, then posted it on his social media. Usually, it’d take five minutes for one of his friends to give a measly comment, a mandatory compliment or the likes. But, after the invasion hit, and then, there was nothing. Well, more like the internet broke. Like, Hiroshima – Nagasaki nuclear bombs decades ago, but in a virtual version of it. How to put it plainly, hmm … the internet had aneurysms. That’s the best term he could come up with. Either way, Daichi had followed the news with his phone, connected to the Japanese government's free Wi-Fi for tourists an
100 Systems Invasion 51. Supernatural Intervention
Invasion Day 9Wonosobo, Central Java, IndonesiaThe reddish sun finally set in, calling forth the dark and the moon to adorn the sky.A skinny teenage boy of average height walked through the woods. He wore unwashed jeans and a sweaty oversized t-shirt. A bulky bag strapped to his shoulders, making him bend forward after an afternoon without rest.A nametag hung from his bag, spelled Artha Sangkala.It had been a long day for him. Soon, as the night started, his world would expand.He didn’t expect this at first.The invasion and infectores – all were stuff coming from nightmares. But here he was, surrounded by moving corpses and endless horror.Artha wasn’t new to this kind of thing. Ghosts, demons, and the devil, he was accustomed to them since a baby. Supernatural beings were what he called normal. A psychic, people said to him. He didn’t mind when the unseen creatures were often better than normal humans.Although, after a long day fighting infectores and killing them as a last r
100 Systems Invasion 52. Dimensional Stroll
Invasion Day 10 Wonosobo, Central Java, Indonesia It had been a while since Artha followed Eyang Wadas through the other dimension. He tried to focus, hoping the walk to be short. But, like many things in life, not everything goes according to his wish. As someone who could be considered a psychic, seeing ghosts and demons was something normal. He wasn’t afraid of them, nor was he interested in hearing whatever they say to him. However, the supernatural creatures in the other dimension were not like what he had seen. Besides their animal-like appearance and humanoid plant shapes, they could speak his language fluently as they tried to entice him into taking them with them. Some of them even offered food, all kinds of them, really. His mouth watered the moment their nice smell hit his nose. He almost grabbed a skewered meat a half-bull half-man brought in front of him, but Artha shook his head, clearing his mind from the craving and hunger. Eyang Wadas was testing him. Clenching
100 Systems Invasion 53. The North Korean Soldier
Invasion Day 11Sapporo, Hokkaido, JapanClink!The wind chime rang, swayed by the wind that breezed past Daichi’s current room. Stolen, of course, he broke through the door with ease.After the first day of the first wave of invasion, no rules applied anymore. People either went crazy or became extra of this Train to Busan’s shitty adaptation. He was not deliquescent, per se, but the mini apocalypse called for desperate measures.Either way, he would take everything while he still could. A long soak in warm water was the best. Then, changing into these fresh out of the laundry clothes he stole from the department store. He brushed his nicely smelled hair, looking at his reflection in the mirror.Daichi missed the feeling of touching the tuft of hair growing on his chin. But, he was definitely more handsome, with his face shaven clean. Though, he considered wearing his glasses again so that his slanted eyes didn’t look so small anymore. Even if he didn’t need it any longer, his vision
