The Omnipotent Hero System War I [UNEDITED]

Chapter 18

Bailou City is destined to be doomed when no one came for their rescue tonight.

They were abandoned or are they?

The Heroes and even Sotiras who was locked up and can’t use 80% of their abilities just to get out of this fucking room whom the owner might have forgotten-or, the main lead who instigate this vicious plot to execute to begin with.

Blood.

There was blood everywhere. 

Every ground, every road is stained with blood.

Broken bones, broken head, every little part of humans who had come across the path of the hungry monsters and failed to escape, and have been eaten and gone to the monsters belly.

Quiet whispers can be heard under the tunnel, where most civilians who had gone out from their home to be poured down by the rain had taken shelter on.

Now they know that the rain would not bring them any miracle at all.

It will be forever deemed as the day they were cursed by the god to their greed.

Because,

It was a call from the monsters.

Their call for their hunger.

It was too late for them to realize this when the monsters suddenly appeared one by one, attacking them and picking them up to put them into their stinky mouth.

Too late for them to regret to get greedy even just by this ordinary rain-no, this was not an ordinary rain at all- well, it was not a miracle to being with, but a curse so it can also be called as not being ordinary out of the normal rain they have encountered where it hit themselves but would not cause any pain to themselves.

It was too late for them to realize, because as they wanted to go back to their own house, the family and relatives inside would not even open the door for them to take a shelter on from this monsters claws.

It was not they blame them to the point of resenting them for not opening the door for them.

They are their relatives too! Their family! What are they doing seeing their family being just eaten by those monsters?

They did not blame their family or relatives though when they did not open the door for them.

Because they know once the closed door was open, the people inside would be caught off guard as the monsters will probably stretch any parts of their body just to get the person they wanted to be by their side, then, eat it.

They had already notice it now when they quietly observed how the monsters had desperately avoided the tightly closed doors of the house.

It was not even touch or damage as no monsters was willing to lay any fingers on the houses even if it was filled with people inside.

The monsters that came attacking so unscrupulously would not enter the tightly closed door, except for the house that whose door was opened by some elderly woman who wanted her son to get in immediately inside the house but was quickly faced with a tragic sight.

Blood splattered everywhere as the people who came inside taking a shelter also accompanied the elderly woman who had just died, following suit to his son.

They remembered back then, all of the Sotiras had let their powers combined and blend in and set some powerful and very hard to wipe out protection to their houses, like a power talisman putting it into their door as a protection from the wandering spirits or evil spirits wishing to enter their houses.

Well, monsters can also be called an evil spirits as they did something so evil to humanity, well, in the eyes of humans, it is justified, but in the eyes of monsters who takes humans as their food, would not think about their way of thinking at all.

If they did not have been so greedy for something that could not be so possible to happen in this lifetime.

Would they still have been safe in the comfort of their own home?

Would they not be cautious every time if some monsters discovered them then make them their own breakfast?

Would they still laugh happily and filled with joy with their family who was left at home to guard the children and little babies inside the house?

Why don’t they just be contented on what they have?

Why don’t they just sit still and let the defined and titled heroes to come rescue them and help them as much as possible as they needed?

If they are contented already to what they have, it won’t have turn into this!

They should have known better!

They should have known earlier!

That the rain was so hot like it was burning them and peeling off their skin turning into purple green and grey bruises, bloody gliding down their bodies, means something bad happens.

They should have felt something off when the normal rain was hitting their skin, feeling so hot like it was gonna make them go mad from it, making them feel pain.

But because of thinking they might have an ability like the miracle that happened to the heroes on the past.

The pain that almost make them went into an abyss of madness had prevailed so much because of the greed sprouted so deep inside their hearts.

Greed. 

Yeah, they were so greedy to have an ability like what Heroes and Sotiras have.

Why would they be greedy for this ability?

Do they just want to have an ability to protect themselves and their family?

Or?

Do they want to show off to their family because they think it’s cool and worth a lot of praise?

Or?

Do they wanted to, make an equal standing to the heroes who contributed and devoted half of their time to the country and saving civilians?

Or?

They just cannot stand having to see someone have an ability that they even did not have, especially if it was your closest person who get an ability or, one of your siblings that you hated the most being born to the world.

Humans arrogance and Humans greed.

Humans’ arrogance is really hard to change.

Even the greed that was already engraved to the humans’ bones can hardly be changed.

Because if you are not having these traits, can you still be called a human?

Or if you don’t have these traits, can you be called an Angel coming from heaven if there is really any?

If there is, then they might have no importance and significance judging by how their world had an unfair rules.

Systems, Sotiras, Heroes, Monsters, Humans, Animals.

They are almost was last in the food chain.

But then, if they pushed aside their arrogance first and was thinking for their safety first, would they still be at this situation?

Would they be?

Being put into dead end, with nothing to turn to anymore just to escape from those monsters claws and big mouth which seemed to have a big appetite every time it saws a moving thing-no, a moving person whom wanted to fake being dead to spare himself up.

Except if the call for Heroes help for rescue finally arrived to rescue them.

Rescuing them as usual as what they had always done in the past when danger was coming to them.

Silence filled the room.

Hopes of being rescued started to shatter.

Quiet heart-breaking cries echoed one after another.

The Heroes did not come as they had expected.

The Heroes did not rescue them as usual unlike in the past where they walk up to them with a comforting smile after having to experience such a tragic  scene ordinary humans with a weak heart could not bare to listen.

They... Did...

Are they?

" .... "

Silence once again engulfed them as muffled sound filled the quiet tunnel but still, if it was because for fear of being discovered by the monsters, they would have been crying so noisily now.

Are they abandoned?

If the surviving humans got the time to answer this question loudly then the would have said the following words loudly.

Yeah.

It was true.

Really.

They are really abandoned.

"Where are the heroes? Why are they not saving us?" a middle aged man asked, his voice carried a hint of terror and fear as he asked the surrounding survivors in a low voice.

The young man who is closes to him and suit already so wet and even got a little bit of blood stained on the helm of his shirt gritted his teeth as he lowered his eyes with rage and also fear, as he rebuked the middle-aged man who asked that question that turned into a silly question to his ears.

"Are you an idiot? If they wanted to save us, they should have been here already and not let almost civilians been eaten by those monsters! Are you blind? Or you just don’t want to accept that we are abandoned?" the young man hungrily huff and pant in a low voice, his glaring eyes shot at that middle aged man body which quickly shivered at his cold sight.

Part of what was the young man was saying is, true.

After all, the heroes should have been here when that news sounded as the call for help from the civilians to the heroes.

They are not surprised though when the heroes did not come to rescue them.

This is what the heroes should have done.

Because this is the first time, the heroes had encountered Level A danger.

And level A danger is dangerous after Level X and level S above it.

They sighed heavily, tears falling from their eyes silently as they started mourning for their life which they thought might have end after they are found.

Their hope had crashed.

This was the end of their life, and the end of their life was too dirty and tragic.

After they were mourning at the time of their death, they were slightly startled by the noise that made their dejected head to quickly rise and straightened their back nervously.

Bang!

Bang!

Screech…..

Noise outside could be heard.

A harsh screeching noise sounded as it was purposely drag to the ground.

The only way and exit of the door suddenly opened as the people hiding inside had their breathe hitches.

Kate face was visible instantly as the door was finally opened.

The people inside did not get relax as they stared at Kate eyes and the strange looking monsters in her feet while blood tainted both of her fair and white hands with widened eyes.

Fear got up to their throat as they could not make any sound anymore, not like the previous muffling sound a while ago.

Kate tilted her head as she smiled at the people whom she confirmed the survivors of the incident.

The dark eyes earlier that had a little bit of star similar to Gabriel eyes was now all black, even the white part of her eyes was black.

‘Beeep-----Host Kate---was occupied---by foreign---spir---beep!’

Data Crashes!

‘Beeep----‘

‘Loading Host 000000099 new system’

Ding!

Completed…

Ding!

Successful Operation…

Especially when she looked down at the dead monsters on her feet, she would occasionally smile and a hint of redness will appear at the black iris of her eyes, a little crack was made to that delicate and pretty face that could shake an entire world.

Her voice was so sweet but when faced with that eyes, it sounded so creepy like the little girl who opened the tightly closed door of the tunnel was the grim reaper of death as she said,

"Hello! Kate ranked 2nd Sotiras. At your services" with that, Kate previously sweet smile curled up evilly as the black eyes shined slightly with evilness as she look at a person hidden among these crowd of survivors.

"Hey you little monster! What ya doing there?" startled, the little boy who was quietly approaching an elder stopped as he looked at the little girl at the entrance with disbelief.

No way could she have notice something strange about him when the crowd of survivors did not even notice his strangeness.
