《THE TRIALS: Path Toward Godhood. (WARNING : MATURE CONTENT)》CH 20: MIDNIGHT EXECUTION(1)
Advertisement
"The moon was hidden in the sky by the clouds. Tonight was a moonless night, a night filled with only darkness. The time to use the power sleeping inside me coming. OHHH COME BEELZEBUB! My right hand is..."
"Shut up!!!", said a girl as she hit the head of the one who was speaking.
" GHA!!!" ,
"Could you stop spouting such embarrassing lines? How old are you to still suffer from the eighth-grade syndrome? Even if you don't feel shame, I do. That why I never let people know that you're my brother."
She stared at her brother with eyes full of anger. Frankly speaking, her brother was extremely reliable. Be it the power of his quirk, or the sharpness of his mind, there was nothing to complain. Sadly, he was too much of a chuni. He even wore a white lab coat every day and took himself for some mad scientists.
"Ah ah ah, please, let him go. You know how he is. He only did this to relax the atmosphere. " Said another man on the side.
She calmed down because she knew that he was right.
The three of them were standing on the rooftop of a tall building. They didn't place themselves in such a high position simply because it was cool as hell like her brother said. But because it gave her a greater vantage in order to better use her quirk in the most efficient way.
"So, Hina, did you find anything?", asked the second man.
Hina didn't answer. She took a deep breath, and suddenly, veins began to bulge around her eyes, while her pupils began to glow with a golden color. In this team, when not in a fight, she was charged for the scouting.
Her quirk, MIND EYES, gave her a very wide view field. What more, it was an x-ray vision and she covered a field of 360°. Being a scout was the best position for her in a team.
Hina was a beautiful girl. She stood at 164 cm. Her crimson hair; golden eyes and her slender body gave her the look of a cute doll. Once you added the lollipop in her mouth, she became the dream girl of a certain kind of gentleman.

She wore a kind of military uniform, and on her back was a rifle while on her hip, you could see two guns.
Tonight, they were searching for a bounty. But that bitch was really slippery.
"Sister, sister, find her fast, or else your brother will freeze to death if this continues for another day. I refuse to die because of the cold from Ragnarok."
"Bastard!!! Do you think I like being here with you? Fucking job!!! Who was stupid enough to take this bounty?"
"Hehe he, sister of mine. Thou memories are akin to a black hole, did thou truly forget who the culprit is?"
Hina began to blush heavily. She remembered now, she was the one who chooses the target this time.
She thought that it would have been an easy prey, but who would have thought that even after one week they still didn't manage to find her.
She heard a snicker coming to the side. She began to blush even more. Showing such an uncool sight to her crush was really hell for her.
"I'm sorry Asa, because of me, you're stuck with us in the cold."
The young man named Asa, simply smiled.
"Don't worry. I am still new at the job. So I'm happy to have reliable teammates."
She shyly nodded. Mujitsu, seeing his sister act like that, could only click his tongue in wonder.
(To think that this T-Rex who call herself my sister would act like a bashful maiden)
Of course, he knew better than to tell her that to her face. Instead, he eyed Asa curiously.
Hiroto Asa, the newcomer of the years. his quirk was called, KINETIC. It allowed him to adsorb Kinetic energy and even use what he absorbed by either keeping it as kinetic energy or converting it into heat. It was a powerful quirk, no it was basically a cheat code. That seamlessly fused offense at any range and defense.
He didn't know what kind of restriction this quirk had, but even if there existed many of such restrictions, it would still stand as one of the top quirks.
Not much was know about him. Just that he was really powerful and knew how to use his quirk well.

Mujitsu sighed. It wasn't like he couldn't understand his sister. No matter how you saw it, Asa was quite a catch.
In their world where death could come knocking at any time, having a powerful companion was necessary. It was even better if it was a handsome fellow or a beautiful girl.
What more he was still only 19 years old this year. Talented, kind, powerful, young and handsome. What kind of girls wouldn't like him?
Of course, he didn't think he was trailing behind. His quirk was as powerful as Asa, if not more. That's why the three of them could form a team. Suddenly he heard,
"Yay!!! I finally found her. Asa, we are counting on you."
She didn't wait for him to answer before jumping in Asa arms. Asa, let a wry smile before turning his toward Mujitsu.
"Climb on my back."
Mujitsu didn't have to be asked twice. He knew what would happen.
Once they were in place, Asa walked toward the edge of the building...before, jumping.
This building was twenty meters tall. A fall from such a height should have spelled the death for pretty much anyone else. Still, despite that, they gracefully landed from such an edge as if they only took a light jump.
Mujitsu couldn't help but marvel. Their fall was pretty exhilarating.
This was Asa quirk. He used it to absorb all the kinetic energy they generated during their fall. The level of control necessary for such a thing was quite extraordinary.
What more, all this energy was currently stored in Asa body, waiting to be unleashed on some unlucky foe.
The moment they landed, they began to run in the direction pointed by Hina.
"Hina, could you remind me of the characteristics of the target?", asked Asa with a serious expression.
Hina, while on mission was always serious. She might fancy Asa, but she would always put her A-game during a mission. After all, death was always on the corner. She answered fast without stopping.
"Our target is a middle-aged woman named Michelle du pont operating under the code name: Binge eater. Her quirk is a mutant type called Ghoul. The more flesh she eats the stronger she becomes. She already killed hundreds of people and sold their organs in the black market back then in England. All her victims showed signs of having some of their body parts eaten. She fled from England after being busted by the heroes there."
"Ah ah ah. Why do those psychos always flee to our country when they are on the verge of being caught? Do we seem like such a pushover?"
"Brother, could you shut up... Please?", asked Hina with a sweet smile.
Mujitsu immediately did as he was told, and closed his mouth. Seeing this, she smiled before continuing.
"Right now, she already made some victims in japan. Most of them Being SDF, the rest being either children or women. She entered or radar after attacking a group of child scouts... There were no survivors."
She stopped at those words. Despite how callous she was toward death. She still felt like puking when she thought about it. That monster killed ten children by eating them alive. She still had nightmares about the pictures of those children. The pain and suffering on their faces showed how far they had been tortured before dying. Their bodies were completely mutilated and dismembered.
"That monster is wanted dead or Alive by the government. Her prime is pretty high, but the danger that came with it isn't small. She is an A-class target."
Asa nodded, his eyes lost their shine and become extremely cold. His goal was to become an ally of justice.
His late uncle always told him that with great power came great responsibility, and he agreed to his philosophy.
Since that day, the day of his death, he understood how filthy the world was, and he swore that it would clean it... No matter what.
The wanted poster may have given them a choice, but in his eyes, there is only one option...Killing her.

Long Shadow
No destiny, no choice, no hope. Our protagonist, a coward summoned to a world meant for heroes; a new world with new rules and old cruelties. Join him on his adventures as he must deal with menus, monsters, and mysteries in this litrpg fantasy. Thomas Goodwill was an average boy with an average life, all that changed when he woke up in a new reality. Now, out of his depth, damn near out of his mind, he must learn to survive in a game-like reality with no reloads, checkpoints, or save scumming. He does, however, have a drunk snake. Thank you for reading my first story, hopefully, the first of many to come. This will be my main story and is meant to help me practice and hone my skills as I slowly produce more complex ideas. It's a litrpg in which I want to only lightly focus on the mechanics as I don’t want to pad out the word count with math and number tables and while I want to add a few of my own twists here and there, overall I’m going to keep this story close to generic as possible so that I don't let my inexperience lead me into a corner. Thanks again to all willing to leave a review or some constructive criticism, without you I'd never improve. Unfortunately, Cover art is by me.

8 201The Event Master
It is a reincarnation/transmigration story where the MC can only do magic that is socially condemned, but is protected somewhat by his powerful political station. For as long as he can keep it, anyway. With a little luck and some modern world thinking, perhaps he'll come up with something to change people's minds. Not forcefully though, that would be unethical. ** The MC is not a fighter. He's a gamer. He loves rpgs, movies, modern music, and telling stories. I intend to post at least once a week in the range of 2k words. If work eases up I'll increase the amount again. ((Work has instead intensified to the point where I'm struggling to get a chapter every two weeks. I'll pick it back up properly when I can, but for now it is on temporary hiatus while I still might post every once and awhile. This winter, I plan to go back to regular posts until the story finishes.))
