Chapter sixty eight: No trust
The atmosphere inside the dormitory changed now that everyone suspected Ethan, no one trusted him to be a leader anymore.Conversations stopped when Ethan entered a room and people lowered their voices.Nobody was openly accusing him yet but the doubt was spreading exactly as the system intended.Ethan sat alone in the training room. The rhythmic sound of metal striking metal echoed through the empty space.Clang.Clang.Clang.His spear moved automatically, his body trained while his mind wandered.The Overseer’s warning replayed endlessly.You may not defend yourself.Every hour that passed made those words harder to follow. Because remaining silent was becoming painful.A door slid open behind him, he didn’t need to turn around.“Claire.”The sound of her footsteps paused. “You knew it was me?”“Of course I do .” He said She laughed weakly and snorted, usually Ethan would have smiled today he didn’t.Claire approached him slowly. Something about her expression made Ethan stop tra
Chapter sixty seven: The target
Ethan couldn't stop thinking about what the system was up to now and if it was worth him trying for at all.He didn't want to tell the rest yet cause he didn't know if that is what the system is testing him for.The only way to end all these if for him to ascend to Master level so they can destroy the system.This morning he had a weird feeling and he couldn't wrap his head around it.And the system was calm, no trials or announcements, just waiting for something to make a move.The remaining survivors sat scattered throughout the dining hall, eating to their fill in silence. Claire pushed her food around her tray without eating while Sky sat beside her, equally uninterested.Across from them, Bim sipped her water quietly.Ethan sat with them, though his attention seemed elsewhere.His mind kept replaying the Overseer’s warning.You may not defend yourself.The words refused to leave him alone. He hated not understanding and he hated feeling unprepared because it meant he was clueles
chapter sixty six: Do not defend yourself
The dormitory had never felt this quiet. Not after the Blood Forest Trial.Not after the maze. Not even after the deaths.But tonight, silence hung over the room like it was a funeral..Only thirteen players remained.Thirteen.The number sat heavily in everyone’s mind.Somewhere beyond the metallic walls of the dorm, the system hummed softly, alive and watching.Ethan felt like breaking the system as a repayment for all the lives lost.Sky sat on the edge of his bunk sharpening one of his knives.Scrape.Scrape.Scrape.The repetitive sound echoed through the room.Claire was pretending to read one of Professor Lorne’s notes, though her eyes hadn’t moved from the same paragraph in ten minutes.Bim sat nearby with her knees pulled against her chest.Even Trace wasn’t arguing with anyone.Nobody wanted to talk because every survivor knew what came next.The Final Stage.Master Level.The end.The giant screen at the center of the dorm suddenly flickered.Everyone looked up.A pulse of
Chapter sixty five: The final stage
The metallic doors of the central hall slid open with a whisper, and a cold, hollow light spilled across the remaining thirteen survivors. The floor shimmered like liquid steel, reflecting their exhausted faces back at them. The air vibrated faintly, as if the chamber itself were alive, waiting for something. The System’s voice cut through the silence like a blade.“Survivors. You have reached the threshold. The Final Stage of the Deadly Game System is now unlocked. Only those who prove mastery will live. Only the strongest, smartest, and most adaptive will advance.”A murmur rippled through the group. Claire’s fingers tightened around the edge of her dagger, Sky’s eyes darted to the corners of the hall, and Bim pressed her hands together in a silent anticipation. Even Marcus, standing off to the side, seemed quiet, his usual arrogance gone by the gravity of the announcement.Ethan’s gaze swept over them all. Thirteen. Just thirteen remained from the original fifty. Every face bore
Chapter sixty four: Together we stand
The system was evil. The players had come to realize that when they were taken from their homes, schools, workplace and brought into a new world where they had to fight to survive every single day. Group one was wiped off because they refused to bow to the system and fight each other. Most of them lost their lives from the trial with the Reptilian monsters, Out of 53 players only 13 were left Ethan, Sky, Claire, Bim, Trace,Pip,Fenn,Ash,Lani, Paz,Rami,Lyra and Professor Lorne Lyra lost her twin, she lay on the battlefield clutching her dead body as she cried.The players all moved to the dining and ate their food solemnly before moving to their bunks “How do you feel sky?“ Claire asked “I'm ok Claire don't worry about me” PLAYERS WELCOME TO THE FINAL STAGE ONLY 13 HAVE MADE IT THIS FAR, YOU HAVE TWO FULL DAYS OF RESTTrave scoffed “Rest?, what fucking rest” she screamed at that system, kicking everything and hitting her hands “Doing all that won't change anythi
Chapter Sixty Three: I choose no one
The field stretched endlessly, a jagged wasteland of blackened rock and blood everywhere, Claire’s hands shook as she knelt beside Sky, whose body was sprawled on the ground, a gash across his side bleeding faster than any healing could stop. Ethan was farther ahead, the faint sparks of his reinforced blades cutting arcs through the air. Monster after reptilian monster dropped before him, each strike sending sprays of ichor and bone fragments across the scorched ground. He fought hard, striking and striking after the monsters to keep them from harming Claire while she tried to heal Sky. “I don't choose anything” Claire screamed at the system “You've taken so much from me and you won't take any more” she yelled YOU REJECT THE OFFER? The system asked YES Claire yelled. Her voice raw from all the screaming and shouting,She pressed a strip of her own shirt over the wound, the fabric already soaked in blood. Her knuckles whitened around the edges as she gritted her teeth, t
