POWER INFINITES
POWER INFINITE | CHAPTER 2. A Betrayal

...When survival instincts are tested, that is when the original human person appears.

...

After walking for 9 minutes, they finally arrived at a Boss place.

“What's true is his Boss room, Pak” a Hunter asked because he was confused, usually the Boss of the Dungeon will be in his room, but this room is very clean and empty. They also did not sense any dangerous energies, there was only a room with a lot of magic materials.

“Who cares about it, look at this place. We can become rich by selling this magic material.”

The hunters began to pick up the magic crystals that were in the Boss room, taking as many as possible even though they had trouble carrying them.

“It's not good, you don't have to fight mosnter to get all this,” a Hunter told Noah.

Noah just smiled in response to that. Out of the 10 people here, only her, Naomi and the Party leader seemed uninterested in the crystals. Noah felt that there was something strange here, it couldn't possibly be as easy as conquering Dungeon Rank D. Since then, only a few monsters attacked them and you could say that the conquest this time went too smoothly.

“We must leave this place immediately before the Dungeon closes perfectly.” Bara, a Rank C Hunter picked up the magic crystal that was near his feet. He asked his members to leave here immediately before the Dungeon closed perfectly, considering that they had successfully conquered this Dungeon.

“Nak Noah you didn't take the magic crystal?” bara asked when she saw Noah just silently looking around.

“I forgot about it.” Noah immediately drew closer towards the magic crystal to pick up some, maybe today is his lucky day, he can sell this and pay his sister's hospital and school fees. However, it was hard for him to erase this uncomfortable feeling.

“Alright, let's hurry.” Bara began to lead the way, but the passage that led them to this place disappeared. There was only a wall of magic crystals.

“What is this, I'm pretty sure we went through here. Did I see wrong?” bara asked with a puzzled face, he was very sure that they had just entered through that direction. And he continued to observe the surroundings, so there was no way he would not be aware of this peculiarity. However, seeing that there was no way out there, made Bara feel like she had missed something.

“Pak Bara what's wrong?” Naomi asked herself.

“No.” Bara then walked in the opposite direction, but still he saw nothing but a crystal wall. There are only walls here, they are trapped with no way out.

“What is this, Chairman?” one of the hunters asked Noah, his face vexed as they continued to waste time here. He wanted to go out and exchange all the crystals he had earned for as much money as possible.

“Chairman I remember wasn't there a way out over there? My memory is very good, the first time to this room I saw there was a stone there, and it was right next to the exit.” Other hunters justify. Seeing the conditions that are not conducive, Bara tried to calm the others. He was the one responsible for this conquest. So, he had to find a way out immediately. As confusion strikes them, Noah senses abnormal changes around him.

His sense of movement worked instantly and he realized something very dangerous was coming. Therefore, he shouted to warn everyone.

“EVERYTHING IS DOWN!”

“What is Si Rank F?”

“Why suddenly?”

When Noah shouted, everyone turned their heads towards him, some of them were instantly enraged and heeded his words, meanwhile, Noah who realized the impending danger immediately pulled Naomi's hand and lowered his head with Naomi in his arms.

Simultaneously, a golden light was seen flashed and slashed at the 3 Hunters, while the remaining 7 were fine. However, naturally looking at how the rest of the human body without a complete body part was something extremely terrifying.

“Ahhhhh!” there was the sound of screaming, out of fear, while some felt grateful.

“Ki-we survived?”

“Where was the surprise attack from?” He shifted his eyes forward. There was nothing but a wall of magic crystals. The scars of the attack disappeared, he wanted to refuse to believe, but the splashes of blood on the wall told him everything. He lost 3 other members. He had to immediately get the remaining 6 out safely.

The room suddenly changed. The torch hanging on the wall automatically started the fire. The place was like a hall. The terrified cries of the female Hunter that was with them were inevitable. Now what they saw was not a room with a beautiful magic crystal wall, but rather a place with a monstrous monster sitting on a throne and 4 other monsters standing next to it.

There was a statue near them. A statue of an angel carrying a book. However, their focus was on the 5 monsters that were smilingly welcoming them.

“Not good to go after taking my treasures?” As the monster sitting on the throne spoke, Noah and the other 6 Hunters suddenly felt a terrifying pressure from the five monsters. Moreover, they could use human language. Cold runs down the spine. Noah lifted his stiffened head with great difficulty, trying to see the monster before him. The aura released from the five monsters was clearly very dangerous and impossible against them. Then whether Pak Bara can defeat them, even though Pak Bara can defeat one, then how can the other four can his partner defeat them?

In the group other than him who is a Rank F, there are 4 Ranc C with 2 beginners and 2 others are experienced. There is a Rank B, but Naomi is not a Hunter-type fighter and a Rank D. Noah clenched his hand, at a time like this how do I get out safely?

The smile from the monster sitting on the throne seemed to give was looking forward to something, therefore Noah immediately shouted as loud as possible with a sense of despair. A golden light came back. Noah hugged Naomi tightly and lay down on the ground.

The golden light was so fast. Real quick. The others were not as lucky as Noah. 3 Hunters who had no time to react disappeared without shouting. Only the pieces of meat left on the ground fell. They splashed blood everywhere. Another Hunter wailed in pain watching his friend's death. In Noah's arms, Naomi's body trembled in fear. Noah felt the chance of life being as small as possible, they had lost 3 Hunter Rank C without a fight. Now how's it going?

The Hunters including Noah felt a fear they had never felt. Of the 10 hunters now only 4 remain. Yet…

“Thanks to you I was able to dodge in time.” Bara patted Noah on the shoulder. “Listen, son we don't know what will happen later, but your institution has saved us. How did you do it?”

There was no attack at the moment, even though the monster was still smiling. However, there were no signs of an attack coming. So, now what should they do?

“You guys are really impolite. How about this?” the Hunters stared at the monster, he seemed to think hard.

“A presentation.”

Noah's expression immediately became stiff.

It's insanity. Noah could not guess how the monster's mind was going. He had taken the lives of 6 humans as if it was nothing.

“One person sacrificed for 3 others, well I think it's the best.” Everyone looked at each other. The question is, who will do it?

Everyone looked at each other, other than Naomi who was too scared that she could not compromise, the other 3 showed a depressed face. No one wants to die here. Everyone has a reason to stay alive.

“Nak, Noah. If it wasn't for you maybe we wouldn't have survived. Because of that thank you.”

“What do you mean? Why suddenly-“

Bara cuts off Noah's words, “Sorry, but sacrifice for us.”

The exit has appeared since the game began. Bara supports Naomi's body to help her get up and get out of this place. A Rank D hunter was already far ahead of them.

“Two why is it like this?”

“Sorry, Son. It's also heavy for me.” Bara injures Noah's leg so he can't escape.

Noah just stared silently at the backs of those people. He saved their lives, but he was betrayed here. “There is no future for a Hunter Rank F” suddenly he instead remembered those words. The pain of being betrayed made him tremble.

“Sounds like this is the end.” The four Monsters started to step closer to Noah. Noah wanted to escape, but both of his legs were badly injured. And as the monster carrying the axe raised its axe, Noah felt an excruciating pain. The huge axe pierced his chest, Noah instantly spewed out a mouthful of blood. The monster alternately chopped it off as if it was meat for dinner.

Noah's body trembled violently, in this dark and sinister place, he would take his last breath. When death would actually come, her tears blurred her gaze. Noah remembers the family he was worried about.

“I don't want to die..”

The monster holding the sword raised the sword very high. Without feeling at all. Noah was really frightened, but he did not turn his face away from the sword.

“If... If only he had one more chance..”.

As if pressing the pause button, all of the attacks stopped in midair. Everything stops.

What the hell just happened?

Ting!

A strange voice appeared in her eyes.

[Secret Mission: Whining Losers]

[You are already qualified to be ‘Player’ do you accept it?]

Noah feels hesitant to say ‘Ya’. The time listed there seemed to urge him to make a decision immediately.

[Your heart will stop immediately after 0.03 seconds. Do you want to accept it?]

In this desperation, Noah could only bet.

“Ya.”

[Congratulations on being a player]

A dazzling light then illuminated his body. At the same time, Noah lost consciousness.
