Chapter 56 – The Fourth Day Of The Event
“Stop…! Let go of me!” Said the girl.
“We’re almost there, please wait a little more.” I said as I grabbed the hair of the only survivor of a party I annihilated a small while back, and dragged her. She seemed to be a popular streamer of sorts, and even now she was still streaming her playthrough, which was quite useful as there were undoubtedly a fair number of sources of points watching even now.
“Help me, everyone!” She exclaimed. It was fairly impressive that she kept using her fairy-like camera to stream even in this situation. “You really don’t need to do this, alright? We’re both girls, so let’s get along!” I’m sure plenty of fresh and lively fishes will bite this bait… “You really don’t want to get along…?”
“Seems like we have arrived.” I said joyfully. She seemed to be a bit scared when she saw our destination, but I didn’t really mind it. “Let’s go inside.”
She started screaming a bit as I dragged her inside the dark cave, so I tried calming her down a bit, “It’s alright, I won’t do anything particularly horrible to you.”
“I can’t believe you! Please, viewers, help me soon!” She shouted.
“Yes, please do come soon, otherwise I might do something if I end up getting bored.” I said while smiling at the camera and giving them a small wink.
After that, it was waiting time. It took a bit longer than expected, since they should have been coming after me since the time I started dragging this girl around, but eventually I started hearing their voices from within the cave’s entrance.
“Over here!” “We have found it!” The players said. It seemed to be quite the large group, so they probably took a while to get here because they were grouping up first… Well, it doesn’t matter much in the end.

“Please hurry up and save me!” The girl screamed.
“Just you wait, Meiru! We’ll rescue you right now!” One of them screamed.
“Prepare yourself, Genoci-“ Another started saying while approaching us… Enough of them seemed to be inside the cave already though, so I decided it was about time for me to start acting, which obviously removing the need of hearing him until the end.
“<Darkness Domain>” I said while activating a spell with the aid of Kageyama’s <Black Magic>. It made the entire cave much darker than it already was, making it basically impossible for them to see anything.
“Be careful!” One shouted.
“Someone use light magic already!” Another said while panicking.
Before they could react to it, I cut off the hair of this Meiru girl. She seemed to take a while to understand what just happened.
While she recovered, I approached the group and used her hair as a rope to choke the person that looked like the party’s leader. This triggered the <Surprise Attack> and <Assassination Art> skills, quickly killing him before he had a chance to scream and warn the others that I was already this close.
Meanwhile, the girl finally let out a panicked scream as she seemed to realize what I did to her hair.
“Wh-what happened, Meiru?” One person said.
“Did the Genocider do something horrible after all?” Another asked… That’s a bit rude. I didn’t do anything horrible.
In any case, she ran to the center of the disorganized bunch. Maybe if the leader was still around, he’d help them remember the situation and stay alert, but right now they were all frolicking towards her while trying to understand what just happened.
“Where are you!?” One asked.
“M-my hair!” She seemed to still be in disbelief.

“Meiru, I’m coming!” Another said.
This is way too easy… Well, just in case, let’s use some poisonous gas on top of everything else.
“Gah! What’s this!?” One of them exclaimed as he saw the poisonous cloud surrounding them. It’s a colored gas to boot, so even if they were able to cleanse my <Darkness Domain>, they’d still have their vision impaired by the poison. Not to mention the cave itself already makes it hard to see.
“Well, time to say goodbye.” I told no one in particular.
At that point, I activated all the explosives I had scattered around while dragging the girl around the cave. The explosion was big enough to collapse the cave and bury almost all of them below a pile rubble.
“And to be sure there are no survivors… <Growing Flames> and <Breeze>.” As soon as I finished casting those spells, I quickly left the cave in case the rest of it collapsed and buried me together with the group.
Surprisingly, the explosion also caused a landslide that ended up killing most of their secondary group that was waiting on the foot of the mountain that the cave was in. It really worked out much better than expected.
Once the landslide finished doing its job, I quickly approached the few survivors of the second group, killed a man with a kick to the neck, beheaded a warrior, and threw a scrap of iron through the head of a fleeing player… That should wrap it up.
Now let’s see… Wow, I really got a lot of points this time around. There surely were a lot of people, but they also seem to be high-leveled… I suppose that’s understandable though, over half of the players that were in the event must be gone already, so whoever is still around must be quite tough.
I wonder if that Han… Hannes guy and Yuu are still alive… It should be about time for us to meet now, shouldn’t it?

And if a child like that is given power...can he be held responsible for how he reacts? After getting beaten and abused to death by his parents, a boy wakes up and finds himself reincarnated in another world. However, after getting his memories back at age six, he has still faced abuse and neglect as an orphan of the slums, eventually kidnapped and brought outside the city...when he wakes up, everyone is dead, and he is left alone. Will he be able to survive? Will his bitter and cold heart ever warm up? Or will he end up suffering? Or will a single spark of kindness be able to save him, a single light in the dark? Only time will tell. (Cover image found from Pintrest, could not find original creator listed or named)

Jacob Trials is one of their star agents, a man who has carried out actions both heroic and villainous, both necessary and brutal. He has given over his very body to the cause, with machinery that he barely understands adapting and enhancing him.When an unknown group starts hunting him with a viciousness he can hardly countenance, Trials will be forced to come to terms with loss, betrayal, and a savagery that will change him, and his world, forever. A heady mix of nanotech, spy games, violence, memes, and religion. Also find this story at Smashwords: https://www.smashwords.com/books/view/1149545

“… to grow, for opportunity, for adventure, to be free. Join the colony ship Nao Vittoria. Be the first to live amongst the stars.” It was obvious from the literature that the NextStar corporation wanted the young, the adventurous and the brilliant. So why were the super rich fighting over seats? Why were AI’s trying to stow away? Did this signify a premature end to human/AI civilisation? Why had some questions directed to NextStar been aggressively sidelined? Why did the colonist inflight entertainment trial produce fatalities? In fact, why colonists at all? Those and many other questions, however, boiled down to a single central question. Why was the world’s most advanced AI dumped with a hundred year babysitting job for 50 million people speeding towards an uninhabitable planet? It made such little sense. The only sure way to get answers, catch a ride on the Nao Vittoria and play the inflight entertainment game, Pax Domini. I joined, and this is my story. Well, I feature. OK, I’m more of a spectator. Actually, I’m completely irrelevant I was just there. I’m only the storyteller. But what a story to tell. --------- Hi All, Content will be published weekly usually Saturday and typical posts will be 25oo to 4ooo words per post. Though for some reason the Royal Road word count does not include the content of tables so some posts may not appear to meet this criteria. Currently I have written sufficient unedited content to keep this schedule for the next 12 months (half way through the first story arc). My current productivity would indicate that I can maintain this schedule for well into the second story arch. This also allows for the additional content that will be posed exclusively on Patreon (https://www.patreon.com/StoriesOfIndlu). This additional content follows minor characters, peripheral events, maps and other content that does not take away from the main story. I would love to accelerate the post schedule but to meet this I need the assistance of more beta readers than I currently have. So please let me know if you are interested. - Andy ©2022 Andy Leauter.
