Tutorial[2]-First Village

[Location: The Dark Forest]

As the teleportation ended, Ruthven found himself surrounded by tall and ancient trees, all blocking his sight of view with their majestic sterns.

After moments of scanning his surroundings, a feeling as if eyes close to thousands were gazing down at him grew in his mind. The eyes of hungry predators, he called them.

Trying his best to ignore such a feeling, Ruthven finally made clear of his surroundings, He was placed on a forest path, The path started where he stood and continued east.

The forest path had led to many sounds, but to Ruthven, its main attractions were the voices of humans.

Ruthven didn't stop to think as he soon headed east, He would brazenly rush through the forest forgetting any uneasiness he would feel.

After a while of running, light began to pierce through the once-dark forest, and as Ruthven ran out of the forest, light rendered him momentarily blind.

Covering his sight for a few moments, he once again opened his eyes to something that seemed to be a settlement.

The settlement was surrounded by a giant wooden wall a few meters tall, and it had only one gate that was guarded by 2 guards wearing only what seemed like cloths around their waist, that covered their private parts, "Where am I now?" he asked

Ruthven then began to carry a terrible expression as he noticed the scene above the settlement, A System Panel, but this one was different as in it it had big words read as [Quest Target]

Only bad things had come out of the system panels and right now a big panel was right before his eyes. After deep breaths, Ruthven soon braced himself as he read the information provided in the [Quest Target] window.

[Information]: A small primitive village, in it, are 54 villagers. Their daily lives are normal, They've lived like everyone else so far, They could fall in love, Have kids, and die of old age.

[Quest Name: {The Devil's First Victims}

[Quest Completion]: Massacre everyone in the village within the Time frame of 24 hours.)

[Rewards Upon Completion]: *3 Blood points * 10 random stat points and Advancement in The Tutorial +( Bonus given depending on Performance)

[Penalty For inability to meet the requirements]: Experience The deaths of all the villagers alive at that time.]

As Ruthven read the contents of the panel, he remained indifferent as he thought of his next actions, and from his mouth came " Hmm.. so just gotta murderer around 50 people and that's it?" Something was wrong, he thought.

"That doesn't seem like such a hard task." Every time Ruthven spoke, it felt like something was a huge miss.

"Now the hard part is figuring out how I will do it." He would casually say things like that without batting an eye.

"Poison should work best in this situation, right?" Though his words would come out like that, his mind was thinking the total opposite, and by the time he realized that his mind and words were colliding... He broke down in panic

" Massacre are you kidding me, Why would I do such a thing" were his first words to a whirlwind of confusion.

Minutes soon passed and Ruthven had already begun running towards the forest, in search of a place that could help him calm down.

The unfamiliar scenery he would see in the forest was also stressful to the point where he rushed towards the first cave he saw.

With the stress that had piled up and a lot of thinking Ruthven did for an hour, The fatigue he ignored in the grasslands caught up with him as he soon fell unconscious thinking that he would handle everything when he woke up.

Hours later, unnoticed by Ruthven, The clock had begun to count down, and the time frame was about to end.

[Warning...Warning×10]

[Host will fail to meet the requirements in 10 > <9> <8> <7]

While in the comfort of his sleep, Ruthven covered his ears from the voice that would disturb that sleep

[ 3><2><1><0>The host has failed to meet the requirements in the given time. Commencing penalty]

As that Massage broadcasted in his head... His limbs began to be split apart by some unknown force.

"Argh!! Stop, Stop.. some..... Someone Help" Were the words he woke up with as one by one his limbs were ripped off, starting with his hands, legs, and Ears and continuing to his teeth everything was ripped off separately.

And strangely enough, Something stopped him from passing out from the pain he experienced, this caused him to have a slow, but painful death.

<Deaths [ 1/54 ]

---<Beginning revival>---

He was rived with words of screaming pain"No no no no no no" Shaken by the experience, Ruthven quickly remembered that he would have to experience the deaths of all villagers alive at the end of the given time.

The first death was painful enough, so what of the rest that had to follow? he thought.

Soon The second death was about to begin and this time he slowly felt the arms of someone around his neck he began choking, and as he was struggling to breathe, Many more hands started to crush his entire body. This was the second Death.

< Deaths [ 2/54 ]

---<Beginning revival>---

Another revival began"Please stop please stop" He cried as he knew it was far from being over.

Knives slowly appeared from thin air and They slowly penetrated his body. This was a very familiar experience for him as it was how he died in his original world.

The knives kept appearing till all that could be seen of Ruthven was blood and every inch of his body stabbed. This was the third Death.

Deaths [ 3/54 ]

---<Beginning revival>---

With another revival complete, Ruthven's entire body was filled with water as he expanded till death had stopped his suffering.

Deaths [ 4/54 ]

---<Beginning revival>---
