Climbing Down the Building

Before going outside, we tried out using our powers. We found out a lot of things that we can use our powers for, just like changing the shape of metals, summoning drinkable water (spring water), and control the elements to know everyone's location.. but only me, 'Thea, and 'Tina can control the elements though. We made a lot of weapons for everyone to use such as swords and spears.

We also discussed where we will go after securing supplies. At first, I asked them a place where there is a good chance a number of people will survive and what they answered were Police Stations, Military Bases, etc. All those places are far from our location. Without any other place we could go to, I told them about my sister who might have survived.

I already explained to them about what the Demon King of Killing said to me.

"I don't know how far this so called 'close' is for the Demon King. But, there is only my sister that I can think of that is here in the city. She followed me to attend school in this city and I don't think I have any other blood relatives in the city. So, how about going to her school?"

I told them. Lars then asked a bunch of questions which made me slightly angry.

"How old is your sister? Does she have a boyfriend? Can you hook us up, man?"

I was about to yell at them but 'Tina and 'Thea beat me to the punch and denied him with their all.

"Yeah that's a no-no! There is no way our little sister will become your girlfriend!"

"She's right! We don't approve of you pervert!"

While we had such conversations, they all agreed to go to my sister's school.

...

We are watching the situation outside from the 3rd floor. We could see other students running around while getting chased by slaves.

".. this looks so bad."

I muttered unconsciously. I looked back at the other members of my party, they looked back at me. I pointed in front of me signaling them to move.

"Let's go!"

Everything went smoothly and right now, we are watching at the stairs below us. We are in the 3rd floor which is the top floor of the school building so we don't have anything to worry about coming from above us. The stairs are full of slaves, there is no other path down this building. We retreated back to the others- there are no slaves in the classrooms on the 3rd floor, it looks like the Demon King got them to get away from our location earlier.

"There's a lot of them in the stairs, we should think of other ways to get down."

"Hmm... What should we do then?"

I told them and 'Tina asked me. I thought for a second before saying.

"How about making a hole below the classrooms and see if the classrooms below have a lot of slaves, if not we can go down there."

The others hearing that, all nodded their heads.

'Tina started commanding everyone. There are only three of us who can control elements and 'Tina can only control metals. There are only 3 classrooms in each floor in the building, the three of us divided the work to put a hole in the classrooms.

I made a hole small enough that only an eye can see the classroom below.

"There's too many here..."

We all got back to our classroom to discuss over our plans again.

"It looks like there are still many slaves on the floors below us. What do we do now?"

Almond said that and we all started thinking. After thinking for a while, 'Tina thought up of something and suddenly stood up. She approached the windows and looked down from there.

"There's only a small amount of slaves at this side. How about we make a ladder and get down from here?"

"..but the slaves below this classroom will see us at the windows. They might attack us while we're getting down."

I immediately rejected her idea.

"Wait a minute..."

I suddenly got an idea. I stood up and also watched below the windows. I approached the corner of the room and told them.

"This part over here doesn't have a window, the rooms below us also doesn't have windows. So if we make it here, they won't reach and attack us."

...

We immediately put our plan into action. Me, Tina, and Thea worked together to open up the wall and make a ladder downwards. When the slaves outside saw us they gathered around below us... I controlled the ground below them and made deep pitfalls with spikes that faced upwards in the bottom.

".. this will be my first time to kill anyone."

I looked at the others.

"Have you all resolved yourselves to kill?"

They looked at me and answered.

"Yeah, I think it will be okay." "Yep, though it really is surprising how calm we are. Even yesterday, we all just calmly accepted our situation and didn't panic." "So what if we kill them? It's their fault for trying to infect us."

I looked back down the hole we made in the wall- the hole was big enough for a person to go through. The slaves were falling into the pit and raised some screams, Me and Althea immediately controlled the air around them so that their screams can't be heard- we came up with this earlier when we were still trying out our powers.

I continued to make pitfalls and killed the slaves. While I was still killing the slaves, Athena and Althea continued making the ladder downwards. After the ladder was done, we all climbed down from the building. No one was scared while climbing down the ladder even though it was pretty high up.

After we climbed down, I looked at everyone again and said.

"Everyone, don't go out on your own. Follow what Athena tells you..."
