11 Wrath[3]-Fear of Death
"Your kidding me...right!?"
Looking at the baby with the status screen above her, Ruthven froze as he read the "target" written in big red words next to where her name should be.
Cold sweat flowed from his face, before he finally took a step back, "A child!? You want me to take the life of a child, are you mad!?!?"
Ruthven was not prepared for this, Killing the delusional pedestrians of this village was possible, but.. a child, what wrong has it done to deserve this?
Turning around and heading straight for the door was what he had planned, but Ruthven found himself heading towards the baby instead.
"Why!?... Why!?... I don't wanna do this, so why!?" He asked himself over and over, and yet never did he find the answer.
Was it DEATH he FEARED?!!
Moving forward with a hazy mind, Ruthven soon knelt down next to the baby's crib.
Looking inside, and staring the crying baby right in the face, Ruthven's hand moved towards the baby's face...
Gently wiping the tears from it's face, He put on a faint smile on his face and the next moment the smile had changed to a tongue sticking out.
The baby could only stop crying in surprise to Ruthven's actions, after all not only did he stick his tongue out, he also did other funny faces.
Giggles from the baby soon flooded the house, "What nice laughter you have there!!" Were Ruthven's words as his arms moved into the crib, around the small baby's body and lifted her out, "DAda!" The baby said in a foreign language as she warmly smiled at Ruthven.
"Ohh how I so wish I could understand that right now."
Staring at the baby, Ruthven heard the door behind him opening, and when he turned...
A woman with shoulder length brown hair, dark black eyes, and an oval face, came walking in. The woman seemed to around her mid thirties, but her eyes showed motherly love before fear of course.
The woman froze in fear as she saw her child, in what from her point of view, was a demon's arms.
"#*#'@@#+!@@#" Even though Ruthven was yet to understand the strange language spoken by these foreign people, The woman's pleading tone made it clear wat she was saying.
"Tch!! Ohh great, the mother's here." with the anger of being requested to take a child's live returning with the woman's appearance, Ruthven's anger exploded.
<[Notice] 30 minutes left before the tutorial ends>
As the system showed itself once more, Ruthven stood still before a heaved sigh left his mouth.
Gently putting the baby back in her crib, Ruthven took out the blood soaked knife from his waist and stared at the woman's direction.
Thinking that Ruthven was about to stab the baby, the woman ran forward in an attempt to save the baby, but...
Unexpectedly, Ruthven turned away from the baby and headed straight for the woman.
To slow to respond, the woman's screams soon echoed inside the cramped house, and only seconds later were they followed by the baby's crying that quickly stopped...
His eyes facing the ground, and his stone knife dripping blood, Ruthven walked out of the house with curses spewing from his mouth.
"Bloody system, What that's the point of all this!?" Ruthven asked, loud enough for the entire village to hear,"Are you freaking enjoying yourself,Huh!? Answer me you m*therf*cker."
With the majority of the Villagers taking notice of Ruthven's presence, a sigh left his mouth as he threw his knife back into the burning house and took out a new one.
"Alright, Let's End This Already!!." with his gaze now focused, and his wrath far above normal levels, He dashed forward.
Leading the assault on the villagers' side was a young man in his mid-twenties....
"*#@#&_-$#" foreign words left the villager's mouth, and quickly after them, many more villagers joined him in his march towards Ruthven.
"What the fuck are you saying, you morons!?" With already developed hate for the foreign language, The urge to kill the villagers only grew for Ruthven.
As the distance between the two forces closed, Ruthven's speed increased with it.
With the strange increase in his strength and agility, Ruthven reached the villagers and soon, his knife could be seen slicing through many of their throats.
Not long after the fight began, the two village guards had also joined in on the fight, but with their lack of speed and strength it was not long before they had joined the piles of corpses.
FEAR!! a word that the villagers now understood perfectly. They would watch as their comrades gulped down mouthful of saliva before charging at the demon that had attacked their village only to wound up dying from it's red stoned knife, sometimes even the spears on its back.
Some had abounded the fight in attempts of running away, but the demon would only reach for stranger weapons from it's back, and shoot them down from afar.
Killing villagers upon villagers, Ruthven's stone spears and knifes quickly dyed themselves a dark red in the pools of blood they had created.
When Ruthven finished killing all the villagers in his sight, The fire had already spread to the entire village and the rest were being burned down as shown by the system messages.
All the other villagers were burning, all except one, the village chief. Ruthven had noticed that he wasn't anywhere to be seen, and that's when the only safe place around showed itself, The village well.
Ruthven then began to run in the direction of the well in hopes that he would find the village chief there.
Soon Ruthven reached his destination and without thinking very hard about it, he jumped into the well.
As soon as Ruthven splashed into the water, a faint red light started to show in the water, This was because of the magic the village chief used.
"#$_*$#$*" The Old man speedily chanted, Though Ruthven couldn't understand the Language he knew what that meant.
Ruthven quickly jumped as he started to stab the old man in the well countless times, Soon the water turned a bold red, and heavy breathing could be heard.
"huff...huff aren't you supposed to be dead" Was the old man's last words.
"Wow... so you can understand me," Ruthven said as a big *Ding* was soon heard over the entire village.
