Chapter 2

The scene where prison guards in uniforms and those criminals in zebra patterned uniforms are fighting can be seen in different parts of the boat.

"Aagh!"

"Kill them all!"

"You bastards, help me!"

Blue light flashed from the swords of the prison guards, and he could see magic coming out of their hands.

If this were real, it would be unbelievable.

However, the sensations are too vivid to be a dream.

Dream or Reality.

He still don't which of the two is true, but for now, it's important to survive in this kind situation.

Taking advantage of the confusion, He went back inside the ship.

There were already traces of fighting in the corridor. Bodies are visible everywhere and the cabin rooms and floor is dyed red.

He wrinkled his nose at the thick smell of blood.

It was heartbreaking, but that was it. There was no feeling of trembling or fear.

"Whoa."

He adjusted his breathing.

At the very bottom of the ship is a special prison built to transport prisoners. Bahad will still be there.

He found the stairs leading to the bottom area of the ship and went down.

The magic power supply was cut off due to the impact of the explosion, and it became darker as he went down. He took the portable flashlight in the middle.

*Click!*

The atmosphere is like something out of a horror movie, given that the whole area is dark and his only source of light is from the beam of the flashlight.

He walked down calmly. He could hear something squishing or popping everywhere.

Time was running out.

The moment another explosion occurs, the defensive magic installed on the ship will collapse and the interior will be filled with seawater.

'Shit!'

'What terrible luck!'

The sound of dozens of iron bars opening and closing.

Looking at the bottom of the stairs, it seems that the sea water has already started to permeate the bottom area of the ship.

With a splash!

He was submerged up to my waist and the chill rose up, but he endured it and walked along the hallway. A barbed wire was visible in the distance.

Here in this area Bahad is somewhere located around here.

-The first bomb exploded and the bars opened. And when the second bomb exploded, He hit his head hard against the bars and passed out.

He remembered Bahad's face and lines based on the game description.

-When Bahad opened his eyes, Bahad heard doors creaking everywhere, and red lights flashed. The moment he saw the sea water rise, he thought he would die.

-But when the third explosion happened, he could see a way out. Bahad thought then he will live.

'It's over when Bahad opens his eyes.' came the thoughts of Redin as he hasten his stride on the half submerge corridor.

He need to find Bahad quickly when his knocked out cold from the second explosion.

"Turn it off!"

Then a moan was heard from inside the hallway.

Criminal Bahad.

That guy is clearly near.

He have to quickly copy and gain Bahad's ability or fail and die. The moment Bahad comes to his senses, the chances of me surviving are zero.

He gritted it and increased his speed.

"Turn off.. ahhh.."

He see a face amidst the dark hallway.

Brown hair and a scar on his cheek. A man who looks much younger than he used to look in the game.

The blood flowing from his head wet his face, and he frowned.

"you… w-what?"

Redin approached Bahad without answering him.

He reached out and grabbed Bahad's collar.

[Bahad]

Power: C

Agility: D

Stamina: B

Mana: C

Luck: S

Talent: S

– Possessed Skills: Killing Instinct (A), Twisted Mind (B), Contempt for the Weak (B), Eye of Arrakis (S).

Found it.

[Copy the Eye of Arakis (S).]

[Eye of Arrakis (S)]

-The red color in the field of view represents death, blue represents survival, and green represents chance.

– No mana consumption.

– Passive skill.

Activation was at his disposal.

He blinked his eyes, and his field of vision turned red in an instant. Above all, Bahad has a deep red color.

If left alive, he would be a huge disaster.

"What are you.. doing!"

Gradually starting to come to his senses, Bahad grabbed Redin by the collar. An outstretched a hand reaching for Redin's neck.

Redin looked down at Bahad.

If it were him a few hours ago, He wouldn't have been calm in this sort of situation. No, he couldn't have made it this far and might be swept away by an explosion.

All because of the copied skill Cold Heart (A) earlier.

Because of it he was able to keep his cool rationality even in unfamiliar situations. He was able to rationally look at the information he had and the newly acquired information.

He can't avoid it any longer.

Now is the time to make up his mind. albeit for a short time, It seems to be the reality here and not a vivid dream he conjured up.

To be precise, it should be called the world inside the game.

He'll have to figure out why this happened.

"You!! a little bastard gua-!"

The moment Bahad's hands tried to grab his neck. Leaning back, he clutched a nearby broken barbed wire in his hand.

*Swiik*

He aimed at Bahad's neck.

The moment he killed Bahad here and now.

Every future knowdledge he knows will be twisted. But it doesn't matter to Redin. Because there is a future that won't change no matter what he do.

The 10th basement floor of Burning Hell Dungeon.

The door to the demon world opens there.

The moment it opens, this world will change to a level close to destruction. A world ruled by the Demon Baal.

Literally hell is coming.

"H-hey! help me instead."

Redin firmly gripped the barbed wire clutched in his hand.

If he can prevent the destruction of this world, he might be able to return to Earth. Even if that's not the case, to live here peacefully is also the best option.

"Destruction must be prevented."

"W-what?! Are you this crazy?? Bastard"

His status now is a Trainee.

No matter how much he talk about his current position, he won't even pay attention to others or the ones from above.

He'd rather look like a madman instead.

In order to move them and draw the picture he want, he have no choice but to rise to a higher position.

To do that, of course, one need to be strong.

not just strong

He must be incredibly strong.

Enough to deal with the Demon Baal.

'Heh'

He'd never seen a proper ending in the game. But for now, it's worth a try.

The Copy (EX) skill he has.

Along with the information he gathered during the Bern Continental Game remained in his head.

Burning Hell's Hidden Piece.

Items that can be obtained all over the continent.

He can become stronger faster than anyone else.

More than anything.

The special abilities that allowed Bahad to enter the world's most powerful criminal organization, the Darkness Seven.

If he has it, it will be even easier for him to achieve his goal.

"Bye."

Smirking at Bahad.

A barbed wire was thrust through the criminal's heart.

He'd never killed anyone before, but he hated Bahad enough to want to kill.

Or is it because of the Cold Heart (A) Skill effect?

Thinking of every single thing was dumb

"Cheuk!"

The moment he put down Bahad's limp corpse and turned around. A huge explosion exploded as his vision turned red.

"Aaaaaaaaagh!"

* * *

An explosion occurred at the end of the hallway.

Fortunately, it didn't affect where he was.

But the water rose quickly.

He came to his senses quickly due to the urgency of the situation and found a way out using the Eye of Arrakis. In the red-colored world visible to both eyes, blue color began to sway.

Blue line going upstairs.

"H-huh?"

According to his memory, Bahad went to the end of the corridor and survived alone. After that, he can clearly remember the line that the ship exploded and was not caught in pursuit by the prison guards.

But why?

[Tip: Arrakis Eye presents the optimal direction for the current target.]

A message that suddenly appeared.

His mind cleared with the apperance of the message in front of him.

"Physical condition."

Bahad's physical condition and his severely different. That also meant that the survival paths can be set differently.

The moment his worries disappear.

His feet moved naturally and trudge to the submerged hallway going back up the stairs.

As he climbed the stairs, blue lines split in all directions. When he turned his head, a blue light the size of a fist was shining from the wall.

Stood in front of him

A wall painted white. He stretched out his hand slightly over it. He touched something which felt like a soft cloth.

"Ahh"

Redin exclaimed at the sight before him.

When he ripped it apart, the white wall disappeared, revealing a magic bomb hidden beneath the layer of magic.

"Invisibility magic."

That's where the magic bomb was hidden. As he turned his head and looked at the blue lines across the hallway.

He put a lot of thought over his next course of action.

If he can live by dismantling all of the hidden bombs, he have to work diligently. He looked at the magic bomb again.

A blue magic stone.

Magical circuits surrounding it. To stop the bomb, one of the lines must be cut.

and..

It was obvious what color of the lines need to be cut.

"The black line."

He didn't think about anything else. The Eye of Arrakis Skill is suggesting him to cut of the black line among the different colored lines of the magic bomb, and if this is wrong…

Because there is no way to live anyway with his current stats.

Thanks to his cold heart skill, he cut off the black wiring of the magic bomb without hesitation. He cut the line with the sword in his other hand.

*Swish*

No explosion occurred.

It meant he correctly cut off the right line.

Defuse all the bombs on the wall, which are tinged with the color blue in his eyes

Over time.

The blue lines gradually turned red. This is a sign that the bomb is about to explode.

Fast.

Faster.

He squeezed all his strength and defuse the bombs as quickly as possible. As he defuse the last bomb like that, his hands tremble.

"Huff.. Heo-eok."

He didn't even have the strength to hold the sword. He threw his sword to the floor and sat down for a moment to catch his breath.

He prevented the ship from sinking.

and survived

"The future will change completely."

The moment he killed Bahad, he expected it to some extent. It's not going to go the way he knew back in the Bern Continental Game History.

But this one is on a different level.

Supposed to be dead prison guards are now alive thanks to him, and many other criminals also survived from his intervention. One can never know what variables this might bring.

"I need to be strong."

Redin muttered to himself.

The strength to overcome whatever obstacles may come his way.

"Haaaaa…"

He want to organize his thoughts first, but he's too tired to even think of his next plan after escaping from this ship. He went outside to get some fresh air, and he got up from the floor.

He led his tired body and climbed onto the deck. The ship, which had been stained with the color red, changed back to it's original color once the ordeal has finally subsided.

The battle seems to be over.

Those criminals in prison uniforms were all on their knees, being subdued, and on one side the sailors were moving quickly.

That moment.

Green smoke appeared in front of his eyes. The source of the smoke came to him.

"You did it?"

A cute face full of mischief with short hair.

One of the main NPCs.

The daughter of the leader of one of the 7 major criminal organizations, 'Brussels'.

Seria.

Why does green smoke appear from her body?

"Are you dumb?"

"w-what?"

"what? Can't you speak?"

Seria took a step closer.

As their faces drew closer, the bright voice grew cold.

"The bomb was defuse. Are you the one who did it?"

The green smoke turned into text.

As if to answer like that.

"T-then?"

'shit.'

She laughed.

Then she turned her head and cried out in a loud voice.

"Instructor! here. I found a suspicious guy!"

* * *

Bern Continent.

Add kingdom located in the north.

A man was staring out the window at the castle where outsiders would normally stay.

Statues surrounding the palace.

It felt grandeur and momentum as it was modeled after the kings of knights who led the kingdom of Add, which is called the country of knights.

He wonder if he can see this every time.

'Huuu…'

"Chief."

"Come in."

When the man called Warden turned around, the door opened and a man in a black uniform entered.

A uniform worn by prison guards at Burning Hell Prison.

Looking at his subordinate, the warden opened his mouth.

"What is going on?"

"There was an accident during the meeting. Burning Hell's transport has been attacked."

The warden responded calmly.

"Continue."

"There were three explosions, but no additional explosions occurred after that, so fortunately it did not lead to a major accident."

"What did you find out?"

"According to the opinion of the analysis team, it is a new-style magic bomb made by the Magnes organization. A total of three exploded and 18 were dismantled."

Defused a newly invented bomb by the Magnes Organization?

The warden put on an interesting expression.

"Who defused it?"

"His name is Redin, one of the new prison guards."

He confirmed the personal information given by the subordinate.

Except for names and ages, there were many blank fields.

"Currently, he is suspected of being Magnes' spy and is being held in solitary confinement. Preparations for the interrogation have been completed, and we are only waiting for the director's order."

If a new-style bomb exploded, it wouldn't have been possible to dismantle it right away. It is possible to suspect that he is a member of the Magnes organization.

A show to infiltrate members of Burning Hell Prison.

In fact, He put a lot of effort into it, but he was sure after seeing the face on the back page.

The child is clear.

"Free him."

"y-yes?"

"He can't be a spy. I guarantee this guy's identity."

"All right."

"He must have been innocently imprisoned, so if he wants something, simply listen to it. Everything that happened today will be kept a secret."

"yes."

"As for Magnes."

The warden spat indifferently.

"Pay them back as much as they did."
