Decision to leave. Killing in mass.

Finally, Colt entered the office of Chen Shu.

Who was lying down and thinking of what to do in the future, given he realized the fact that martial techniques from the previous world of his? Are not good enough, for vampires of a body of his.

The fact was speaking louder, where Chen Shu has two choices. In which, he can walk down the path of pure vampire ability according to the system.

Or, on the second choice, Chen Shu can walk down the path of the hybrid. Which include cultivation and Vampire abilities simultaneously.

The second path is something he has been walking, where he still decided to move on this path only. Where the major question arises.

To which, he has to choose on how to transverse this path, without much proper guidance.

Martial Path---> Body Cultivation + Qi Cultivation.

Body Cultivation---> Divine Art + Physical Enhancement.

Qi Cultivation ---> Inner Qi + Immortal Arts.

For now, Chen Shu has replaced Qi Cultivation with Mana Cultivation, while he only practiced Body Cultivation very rarely.

Due to this, at the exposer of powerful turbulent mana. His leg meridian was burst open during his last fight! Which made him doubt if what he was doing was good or not.

This time, he had made a perfect mindset, where he recall all the body cultivation in his mind and recalled the best one could be for his current position, which need successive bursts of mana to change the tide of the battle.

Starlight Forging Scripture... Which he had trained to small success, was a great art for body tempering which also increase his Mana affinity a little.

He decided to form a Starlight Marking, for which he need his consciousness to dip inside the world of the constellation and collect a constellation pattern inside his acupoint.

According to the scripture, the constellation in the sky is what, human acupoints were designed after by heaven. Due to this, once he used the starlight Qi to hit an acupoint to open, one might end up dying due to an outburst.

This can only be avoided if the person opens an acupoint in the form of the constellation in the psychic realm of humans. For that human need is the ability to perceive his or her psychic realm.

Heh! Chen Shu chuckled, given his powerful soul. It was not a problem, as long as he have enough starlight energy he can open any kind of constellation from the mortal Psychic Realm.

At which, he would be using Ice-Type Mana and Magma-Type Mana, which is very similar to Starlight energy used in Starlight Forging Scripture.

Where the little change, which is different from starlight energy is their attributes.

After all, Starlight Energy is something with no elemental affinity or derivation.

Knock-Knock...

Hearing the voice of knocking, Mai opened her eyes as he sat back up again. Gaining the same professional to be personality.

While Chen Shu acted like, the young lord should be and allowed the visitor to enter.

Colt entered the room and stood 3 meters away from the main desk. Nodding his head to Chen and Mai, while stating the reason.

Why he was here for, in which he announced that they had been contacted from Ren and Duan, while the situation down there was something he needed Chen permission on.

"Hmm! What is going on? Given, how Duan rarely asks for permission. This time, the problem should be something very deep or troublesome."

Colt's expression darken remembering the word of Duan, but he still nodded his head. While giving a quick sentence.

"Some Human's had eaten the flesh of their own brethren to survive." at which Mai laziness disappeared, where she also sat uprightly.

"Kill them. Don't leave any survivors from that group. They have already lost the right to be called human anymore if brought in among us. They will hunt us to feed their lust for human flesh."

It is a strange phenomenon since human flesh has a unique flavor to it, making those who eat them get, addicted to them.

This is something, no human is able to get away with. Where they will do anything and everything to get their dibs on human flesh, once in a while.

Or else, they will feel their mind burst open along with many psychological tortures, one can never imagine. After all, no one had survived to tell the tells what happened after that.

Duan, on the other hand, felt the decision to kill them all should be the best possible decision to take in a situation like this.

But still once were human, and he decided to refrain from killing them due to anger.

While contacting Chen Shu for that was the last resort and last chance for these people.

20 or more people were sitting helplessly looking at the group of armed people. Standing in front of them, while their gun aiming at them directly. For the reasons, they were fully aware of what.

When beast kin from the other stood up and walked toward Duan, as he spoke to the person in front of him.

"Master Duan, among those people. The small girl at the corner of the group was not lost. After all, she was fed with that meat when she was suffering from fever."

Duan could not help but look at the tiny girl, who was looking at them with different yet unknown emotions.

With a glance he was able to tell that, she was not afraid of death. To them, she was looking forward to ending her miserable life.

Duan Walky-Talky connected, where he heard a simple command.

"Kill them all, with no mercy, no matter with what situation. They will be saved, only after they die there by your hand. So I hope Duan, you will make an appropriate decision."

It was the voice of Chen Shu...

As he heard beast kin, by his side speak again "Though, she lost her soul knowing, what she had eaten was the flesh of her own mother."

"Master Shu!" Duan was trying to speak something. When Chen Shu on the other side of the Walky- Talky. Sat silently, as he quietly waited for the guy to speak something.

20 seconds have passed, no one was able to hear a single word from either side.

"Is there really no salvation for them Master. After all, there is one subject, who did not enter this place with her own will. It was more like something, which has been forced upon her." Duan broke the silence between them.

While Rito who was sitting silently on his chair, sighed within his heart as he accepted Duan's feeling and responded to his feeling.

"No, there is no salvation for that soul, at least, among humans she will never find salvation. Though! Duan remembers my words. Sometimes once kindness would bring greater suffering to the person, receiving that kindness. So take action, after you have made your choice."

Shu went silent while tapping on the table, which was one of the habits he had inherited.

From the previous host, which appeared in the form of muscles memory. At the time he is thinking deeply about some kind of problem.

"To the part about judging those people. Let me be clear about it. Since we don't have any right to judge those people at all, after all, what they did was for the sake of survival."

Speaking that much, Chen Shu stopped and spoke again "But this time, you will decide the lives of the people by your side. So, you have to make a judgment. To save or to kill, to protect those, who are closer to you."

Ending the connection, Chen Shu smiled as he looked at Colt with a relaxed face. As he looked at the communication device while taking a deep sigh to calm his heart.

After all, at this moment Duan's mind should have been going through a greater struggle.

Which was a necessary step to hone Duan's personality, where his decision would make Chen Shu realize. What kind of position Duan is capable of handling in the future.

If he would kill them all, Duan would have had greater benefit being a general. But on the other hand, if he would choose to save that kid, Duan will have a greater chance to become a great minister of foreign affairs for his city.

To which, Chen Shu was looking forward to Duan's answer to his question...

Drip! Drip!

A pin-drop silence was engulfing the whole area, where Duan was standing looking at the Walky- Talky in his hand.

His mind was going through a lot of things, where he was looking at the weak kid right in front of him. After all, at this moment he was given a chance to make a decision affecting the path, he would walk on in the future.

Which is something for him to decide on, to which his heart already knew the answer. At which his eyes flicker with madness, as he looked at the people in front of him and shouted. "All of you take aim, and fire at the word, shoot."

"NO!"

"Stop."

"Please I beg!"

"Nooo!"

"Fuck Kill."

"SHOOT!"

The volley of rounds was showered, while limbs flew, several holes appear on the body of those 20 people, as they all drop dead right in front of Duan.

Who was looking at the corpses with cold light still flickering ablaze within his eyes...

After this, a silence descended the quiet room again, while the smell of blood wafted the whole room with its unique presence.

Telling the story of struggle and lust, telling the people, who they really were if not for society.

In the end, A social animal would always carry the word animal on its tail.

After all, when hunger strikes, the emotions crumble apart in the name of hunger, that is why in many religions. Hunger is described as the source of evil.

Where Duan, had experienced the true fear of humanity, given without emotions humans would just become another animal.

This is why love was provided by heaven so that human can truly mask their eternal darkness, with the bleak of light called love.
