I prepared myself to start following the politician. The atmosphere was becoming tense and dangerous, as I knew that in this highly guarded place, many users would be on the lookout for their target. My target, however, was clear and determined: Harold.From my privileged position in a building near the Capitol, I had a panoramic view of the avenue and the windows of the other buildings. My gaze was focused, scanning the crowd for any sign of Harold's presence. But among the jumble of people, I couldn't make him out. Each face seemed to be just an ordinary user, and I wasn't willing to waste my time eliminating others; my only target was Harold.Suddenly, my eyes fell on a shocking scene. A user was being dragged away by someone unknown, and I knew that had to be Harold. My heart began to race as I pointed my rifle at the window from where I saw the strange movement. I waited anxiously, hoping for some sign, but nothing happened. The tension was mounting, and in my mind I felt the wei
I was a simple salesman in a call center. I offered products of a communication company. Every day, I called more than thirty people to offer them different promotions and items at low prices. It was very difficult to work there. People were very rude and said dozens of rude things to me, it was easier for them to hang up on me or tell me a simple no and that was it. Sometimes I had to hang up on them when they were getting through. I was a pretty nice guy, and thanks to that I was the best salesman, in the first few months some of my colleagues made my life miserable. They would steal my client sheets, or sometimes they would turn off my computer. I got used to that lifestyle. My wife was out of work, and she earned twice as much as I did. We had been married for almost two years. We had no children yet. I took on all the household expenses, I still had to wait a little while to leave this company or wait to be moved to the less stressful customer service area.In the short time I
From one moment to the next, I appeared in a white room with a strange ringing in my ear. I got up from the floor and a strange announcement appeared. (Welcome user) [You have received a new opportunity] [You will return to life as if nothing had happened to you, but you must do a mission] (Rules) [You cannot be detected by a regular person doing a mission. Simply put, no normal person can recognize you doing the mission Automatically, you go on the punishment list and if you are caught, you will also go on the target list] [You cannot kill another player without being on a mission] [You cannot interfere in another player’s life without being allowed to do so] [You cannot kill external people] [You cannot tell a normal person what you do] [Any rule can be added or changed. Breaking any of the rules makes you a target for as long as the system determines] (Missions) [You will be given missions to kill or steal. There are only 200 available worldwide] [You have a limit of
The user forced me into the bathroom, with his razor he made me feel inferior. He didn’t hesitate to say all sorts of things to me. “You are a vermin. It’s unbelievable that you’re still alive. You’re the last one in the ranking. I didn’t kill you because you’re worthless. You’re more useless than an NPC.” It was very offensive what he said to me. I had been a system user for hours, I still hadn’t done, or tried anything, because it was, I had the week off. It had just been coincidence that the target appeared in this place. The man pulled out a gun and spoke to me. “The best thing is for you to stay here. You’re worthless, though. It costs no one anything to shoot you or slit your throat just for fun. You’d better hide and until someone eliminated the target.” I felt really bad to hear that. I was trapped in that place and I couldn’t say, couldn’t do anything. It was very distressing. I just opened the door a little bit and saw other users walking around the club. Maybe it woul
I answered the call so as not to drag that matter out any longer. “Hello!” “You’re a bastard! You reproach me for Alejandro, but you’re the lover of a bitch!” I didn’t really like hearing that, but I kept listening to her. Until I got bored with her insults. “You are a cynic! I see what you spend your money on!” I paused a little and was as clear as possible with Adriana. I didn’t want to be next to her anymore. “I’m going to separate. My mistress wants me to go live with her. Monday we’ll talk.” I hung up on her and turned off my cell phone, I wanted to get some rest. They had been too weird. I closed and opened my eyes, surprisingly I got a notification from the system, I ignored it, but this time something very strange happened to me. I was transported to a lonely place full of ice. It was very cold, maybe I was in the North Pole or in the South Pole. I was only in my underwear and I didn’t know what to do, my short black hair started to fill with snow and my black eyes we
I woke up to the sound of cars. I opened my eyes and saw Lucia, she was driving another red Ferrari. I was in the passenger seat with an impressive pain in my head. I smelled blood, and I was a little dizzy, I was very annoyed by the smell of smoke coming from some cars, it irritated me a lot. The woman felt that I was moving and spoke to me. -Don’t move too much. You must stay still for a while. -Are you taking me to a hospital? -Almost. Let’s go to my house. I accept your proposal. I need you to help me on a mission. “Why?” “You said you would do what I told you if I helped you. Well I need your help too, some users made groups and that dangerous. This week’s missions are in another city, there are none here.” I just thought to calm down a little, I knew how dangerous it was to face another group of assassins. Maybe that would be short-lived and I could be calm for the rest of the day. However, the further we went. We reached the exclusive area of the city. Only rich people e
After the impact, the driver got out of the car. Lucia pulled out a gun, I didn’t hesitate to ask her. “What’s wrong?” “Mmm, I have problems with the mafia. Not because of the mission, it’s external stuff.” “A rich woman like you has problems with the mafia?” “One of the companies I own is competition for a mafia business.” After listening to her, I knew that we are all wanted for trouble, regardless of social status. For the first time, I pulled out a gun and prepared to shoot, but she motioned to me. “You better stay, I’ll settle this quickly. The hit wasn’t that hard, and maybe it was an accident.” She got out of the car with the gun hidden in the dress she was wearing. I didn’t try to tell her anything and concentrated on looking at my system. I wanted to see if there was anything that could help me, since I hadn’t checked anything. I could see the announcement of the missions I would have to do. [Missions] [Steal] [Kill]. Obviously, I preferred to be an assassin, my m
The subject suddenly fell to the ground in front of his bodyguards. I watched carefully through my magnifying glass, trying to unravel the scene and the possible reasons behind his fall. A sense of relief came over me, finally this had come to an end, the target had been eliminated.Lucia, a harmless looking woman, but with lethal skill, was the most suitable person to carry out this type of assassination. She was certain that she had used some lethal poison, thus avoiding arousing suspicion and ensuring that no one would point her out as the culprit.The man's bodyguards desperately tried to revive him, placing him in a van in the hope of saving his life. As I witnessed this frantic attempt, my phone rang, interrupting the scene in front of my eyes."[Target deleted]"Immediately, I tried to call Lucia to coordinate our next step, but her phone remained silent, unanswered. A worry grew inside me, compelling me to leave the building in search of answers. I carefully deposited the rifl
