The Death Game System
Chapter 10 - Betting!

"Yes! How else to do!!" yelled Kei while accelerating his run.

(Master.) Yuki's small voice was heard.

07:49.

Tap tap tap.... Kei's footsteps stopped next to a tree. The expression of her grimacing face holding back the clear drawn cry on her face.

"How else should it be?!! No kidding!!!" Kei shouted out a mighty cry as he swung his hand with all his might towards the innocent tree that was beside him.

OHHHHH!!! The sound of a loud impact made many people turn their heads, but immediately turned their eyes away.

While Kei himself, did not care about it, and still stuck his fist into the tree. Sick, really. But, it finally turned around, and ran over as fast as he could.

Yuki was a little surprised by that but knew it was her Master's choice.

"Where can I say 'want how else' and just walk away? There's no way I can say that calmly, when I'm the one who left Yuna alone there?" kei said when he ran.

"In other words, I'm at full guilt if anything happens with Yuna. I won't be able to live quietly if that happens." Kei continued.

(But Master.).

"Whisper! If this Death Game told me to choose one, I wouldn't obey it!! I will write my own wishes, and find the third option!!!" kei interrupted Yuki.

Yuki was stunned, giving off a strange sound. From his voice was a little surprised, but there was a tone of admiration from his voice.

"Yuki's. Do you know where Yuna is now?" ask Kei.

(Sure, Master. I know everything related to the Quest, including its location and a few other things. Leave me the navigation. The master just focus on running!) yuki replied, it seems like spirit.

"That's great. What about Yuna? Why isn't he fighting?" ask Kei.

Yuki immediately explained Yuna's situation now, including her fighting 4 men, and one of them was big and strong. It finally made Kei understand why Yuna could lose to them.

07:50

"I get. Well then, I can't do anything when I get there. Yuki, can you make me fight?" Kei grimaced a little.

(There is a skill that allows you to fight barehanded, Master. Unfortunately you have no points at all)

Kei clucked softly, hearing that. His brain was spinning fast, when it all happened.

07:51

"Gee! Yuki! Open the prize I got when I won the Test! I forgot to open it!!" said Kei. Now he's on the streets. Even if he had to hit people, he did not slow down his run one bit.

(Good, Master. Yuna's position is in the alley behind the wood, or will the Master wait for the gift first?)

"You know we don't have much time for that, do you? Yuki, keep the gift open. And don't forget to help me if I'm in trouble. I'm counting on you!" said Kei.

***

("T-no! What am I supposed to do? I have to fight? Can't!! I can't!! How'this? Help me!! Anyone!! Help me!!")

Yuna screamed in her heart. Her temples were already soaked in tears, and her heart was racing like a carriage, feeling fear.

Meanwhile, the man with the bandana started laughing, then played a hand on Yuna's stomach, which continued to climb upwards towards something there.

KreKK.... BUGS!!

The sound of falling wood rang out in front of the alley, making everyone look up immediately.

Kei, who had a surprised face, looked outside the alley, was staring here!

Instantly, Yuna breathed a sigh of relief, as her brother somehow came. But because of his half-dressed state made him look away. But Kei stared confusedly, but then sighed.

"I'm sorry it seems I'm interrupting" Kei said as he waved, closing back the wood blocking the view to the alley, and left.

"DDID?!"

"HEY STUPID BROTHER!! HELP ME!!" yuna shouted. Kei turned around, then laughed amusedly.

"Ohh! That guy's his brother? Then it will be interesting to play with you in front of your own brother!!" shouted the man in bandana while tying Yuna's legs, starting to stand up.

The man started calling the others. But perhaps just in case Yuna beat them up, the four took a knife from each pocket.

Yuna who was watching was shocked and aware.

("Sister doesn't have any martial skills, and his strength isn't good either. Plus they use knives, there's no way other than that big brother will get hurt or worse brother will get killed!") yuna thought in her heart.

"Sister! Just run and call the police! Big brother will not be able to fight them!! Brother will be hurt!!" yuna shouted while trying to get up from her sleeping position.

"Run or save, which one should I do?" ask Kei lightly.

("Yuki. Hows it? Is it done? Nnnnope. Please leave your duty whatever it is, and help me!!") Kei called out to Yuki with a cry full of fear in his heart.

(Huftt... Alright. Master see the bamboo 2 meters next to Master? Use it as a spear to keep that person from approaching. This alley was an advantage for long weapons. But be careful because long weapons are also difficult to use here.)

("Explain it easier!!")

(Easy, use that bamboo to knock this guy down and use [Soul Eater] to weaken them.)

Kei heard that nodding understandingly, then smiled cunningly.

"After that, take Yuna out and kill them, huh?" whispered Kei before immediately jumping to the side, picking up the bamboo. The person in green clothes ran over, but like the original plan, Kei attacked the person's leg and dropped him.

His bamboo also prevented it from falling, and herded the fallen man towards Kei, approaching Kei who was ready with his right hand.

"[Soul Eater]!" kei said while strangling the person. The person in green clothes immediately fell limp with a pale skin color.

"Oh!! You're good too!!" said the burly man as he walked, now together with the man in red on the right and left.

(Master, turn the bamboo.) Yuki also gave Kei instructions.

Kei complied, and made the bamboo spin around to target the heads of two of them. The green-clothed man was surprised to handle that, and somehow was able to avoid her at the last moment. The red shirt was unlucky, and his head was hit by that round of bamboo. It made him fall unconscious for a moment.

Not stopping there, Kei pushed straight at the burly man, squeezing his neck with bamboo in Kei's right hand.

"[Soul Eater]" Kei uttered the name of the skill again, and his left hand held the man's forehead.

(Master, back!) yuki reminded.

Kei immediately stopped his skill, then spun around, knocking the bamboo in his hand with all his might to the person who was preparing to attack him.

Kei's power was already different from that of some ordinary people, making the large, heavy bamboo even rotatable so quickly like a small, light stick.

And obviously, the force Kei produced was huge.

The bamboo hit the man's ribs with the bandana, crushing him about 4 bones!

"ARGHYO!!" the man shouted.

(They can't wake up anymore. Master, remember the time!) yuki's words reminded Kei.

Hearing that, Kei inevitably held back his anger, and immediately ignored them all. Then, Kei immediately ran towards Yuna, releasing the bond she had in her hand.

"Ka-" Yuna wanted to scatter into Kei's embrace with tears on her face, but soon Kei stopped her while slightly silencing Yuna.

"Yuna. We'll do that later. Do you know where a building with a roof can be climbed. Surely the closest one from here? I need that. Hurry up." said Kei with a worried face.

Yuna did not understand, but seeing Kei's serious face she answered him.

"I-I know but..."

"That's great. Please run to that building. Oh yea. Wear my Hoodie. I'll catch up with you soon!" said Kei.

"What do you mean?"

"Hurry now! We don't have much time!!" yelled Kei worriedly, urging Yuna to run quickly.

("What the hell is that? I don't understand, but it looks like it's really important. I don't dare to interrupt or anything. No matter what it feels like, someone's life is at stake here.") Yuna's inner self while wearing the hoodie is quick, and justifies her pants.

Yuna immediately ran to the building she was referring to, and waited for her brother in front of the building, worried that her brother did not know the building in question.

In contrast to Kei, who returned focus to the people lying around him.

07:55

"alright. Let's get this over with quick." Kei proceeded to use the [Soul Eater] skill to the person who fainted, spending their Soul Point up to 0. It made the person die in a thin, dry state.

Kei deliberately left the man with the bandana at the end to watch it all because he was still conscious, even though his body was completely destroyed by the bamboo blow of Kei earlier.

"You bangsad. Really lucky. You're lucky I'm in a hurry. Otherwise, I would torture you, like breaking every bone in your body and breaking your seed" Kei said. It sounded a bit too cruel, but it was indeed what Kei thought when he first saw this person riding on Yuna.

"You M-monster!!" the man replied.

"The monster? Ha ha - ha.." Kei laughed softly, staring at his hand before looking up at the sky.

"Maybe right. [Soul Eater]" Kei said ending the short conversation.

And soon, all that was left was corpses and silence.

"I have to leave immediately. This is a gamble. I bet on my choice!" kei said, as he started running.
