Chapter 20 Killing is Fun!

-Well, start voting! - I said in a firm tone. At that moment the whole shelter fell into silence. All that could be heard was someone crying softly. "If you don't tell me the game in 5 minutes everyone here will be dead, so if you want a chance to survive, vote" said Akuma angrily.

-Dodge!" one child shouted from the crowd. "Straight up! Shut up!" - hitting the first one, said a kid whose build was much larger than the others. "Fighting tournaments!" - he said. The cheering that ensued infuriated Akuma. Children whose physiques were larger than their peers picked fights. The nimble ones suggested cat-and-mouse, and the smaller ones suggested hide-and-seek. "That's it. Quiet everyone!" - I shouted.

-If you can't choose among these three, then we'll play rock-paper-scissors. The loser dies, the winner goes on to the next round. You've lost your chance. - I said, licking my kunai. "Bloodlust"-that's how you could describe my condition at that moment.

-But, AGH-" Before I could say a word, the child collapsed with a sharp pain in his heart area. "Don't argue with me!" - Akuma said.

-The game begins. You two, to me. - Pointing to the two children I said. "Start the game."

The children, realizing that words could only bring death, silently stepped forward, hoping for their victory.

- Three, two, one, play!" said Akuma. The first game is a draw. The children, happy for a second that they would survive two, lost their lives abruptly. The smile on their faces didn't even have time to disappear at the thought that they had managed to outsmart the killer.

-Speak at once. Nobody = Death. I don't have much time to look at your replay. - Akuma said in a much cheerier tone. As he did so, he saw the kill counts on the quest panel add up. At first he had misgivings that only ninjas counted, but seeing the increase made him very happy. "Let's keep playing!"

Thirty minutes later.

-No, don't kill me! - said the loser, who tried to run away. After giving the poor guy a slow death through blood loss, a system message caught my attention

Beep...

The host has fulfilled the conditions of the hidden Butcher quest.

Task: Kill at least 50 people in 24 hours.

Reward: + 2% inclination to Fire. + 2 to Dexterity. + 1 to Strength. Hunting Target Special Skill

Hunt Target - By spending 200 Chakra, you can mark your target. Tag is valid for 24 hours, after which it disappears. Works 1 time per day. Effect: The host senses the target at any distance. A victim tagged with this mark will bring the user a permanent increase of 1-5 Chakra, depending on the victim's supply

Note: This skill has a limit of 500 Chakra. Also does not work on targets whose strength level exceeds that of the Host.

"This is one of the best skills. Increasing chakra reserves is a good advantage. But the initial effect of the skill is also very strong. With this skill I can track down any target and his base. Even Akatsuki, if I manage to tag Obito in the future, I can track the location of Black Zetsu." - I thought in my head.

I finally stopped thinking about the new skill and how to use it, and turned my attention to the children. There were about twelve of them left. The one that amused me the most was the "couple. A boy and a girl, always sticking together. "Hmm, interesting," Akuma thought as he summoned these two. Having learned from bitter experience that any resistance was punishable by death, they stepped forward. Though both had deadpan expressions on their faces. The outcome of the game was that the girl lost. She, realizing her fate, only wept silently. Akuma, the quiet children gave a quick death.

-Kill me. I surrender. Just don't hurt her! - In a heroic voice the boy said. "He looks like a typical hero, in my old world, sacrificing himself for the life of a girl. Also tell me that some

old man with tremendous strength, kill me, and take him as an apprentice"-the memories of his past life only made Akuma angry. By killing and disemboweling her young body right in front of him. He killed him as well. His thirst had already been quenched. So there was no point in continuing the game. He hadn't originally planned on letting anyone go anyway, so after settling up with the others, he walked out of the already burning shelter.

"Status!" - he commanded in his head.
