Chapter 54: Warning

"What happened here?!"

A familiar voice has echoes through out the whole room, the smell of blood on the floor even though it is just a small amount, it still has a sickening smell. I remember the day when I killed all of those people, unknown to me if they really are the one who harassed my sister.

'What will I do now?'

Jin asked himself while looking at the guy who he just slapped a little using his own hand, lying on the floor, unconscious due to the slap he gave to him. The smell of blood, the scene where he remembers the part of his life where he killed a lot of people based on his own calculations and theories.

He can't muttered a single words with his mouth. He tried to open it and he finally realized he can still open it but... He can't say a single word or even just muttered one. He doesn't know why but... He's certain about something.... He felt like.....

He's going to die.

On Jin's deep thinking moment, where he is completely vulnerable mentally, the whole place suddenly felt like it got covered with dark aura. No..... He can say that it literally just turned dark. No other explanations behind it.

The atmosphere also changes, he doesn't feel any pressure when getting scolded or getting shout by the other celebrities or other people that has a big connection on the company, he just thinks that they're pride is high but in reality, all of them are just jealous to him because they often sees Kara looking at him.

But this feeling, it is definitely different from those mere scolding and shouting. He doesn't hear any voice but it feels like he is getting shouted by a thousand's of souls. He doesn't seem to be with anyone yet it feels like he is being watch. This gaze.... It felt like... The time when.....

'...In...'

The lady he met on a lovely forest, the most beautiful women he's ever seen.... Yhe first day they met..... The moment he felt like he is going to die. He doesn't care about it at first but..... Now that he felt like he is going to die... He still doesn't care but...

'Just what is this feeling.....?'

"A Scythe."

The eyes who he kept shut, suddenly opens. It is really a complete darkness, surrounded by a malicious aura, a lot of feels like souls, has their eyes shut. He looked around to find the one who says those words, it felt like a huge scythe was about to cut his head off of his body.

He turns his head on the right, he finds Julian, Who's eyes is also shut. He turns his head to the left and he finds his sister, who's eyes is also shut tight. Unlike Julian who's eyes is slightly open, Hana's eyes is completely shut, so as the other blue like souls that was here.

"A Dagger."

He once again heard that voice. It is the same voice but the presence when it spoke to him right now is as if he was getting stabbed by a lot of dagger, from his head to toe. All of it stings to as if the tip of a dagger was about to penetrate his whole body.

He was looking around, kind of nervous. He can move around and he is sure he can move around but he don't want to. He can speak but don't want to.

"A Sword."

Now, he once heard the voice again. With all the strength who he thought he leave his body, he uses it all to move and flew around this dark looking place. But those words, it felt like his head got completely cut off by a katana. Yet..... It doesn't feel like he died yet.

Same goes with the dagger, all of it felt a little bit sting and he is sure that those daggers can penetrate his whole body without even a second yet.... It felt so.... Alive.....

'...In.....'

He breathe heavily, again and again. He tried to calm down, he looked at the direction where the voice is coming from and he saw... A man covered with a dark cloak, the height of this individual is about 10 foot tall, his hands was just skeleton. No skin, muscle, veins, no everything. Just bones.

"W-who--"

He tried to speak but an unknown aura is stopping him. He can speak, he can move. Something is just... Telling him not to move. No, he just don't want to move due to an unknown reason.

Saying it that way is the best way to describe the feeling he is currently experiencing. It is a phenomenon that he doesn't even expect to happen to him because he is just a guy, a loser guy. He doesn't even know who grants him the system to be able to get stronger. The fear he is currently feeling, he.....

'I...'

[You have summon the item 'Katana of Night' from your inventory!]

"I like it for some reason....!"

He says, finally looking at the creature who said those words to him. Just those words made him feel like he was getting tortured, the temporary pain he experience. He doesn't care about those anymore. He.... Just wanted to get more and more stronger.

'.In.....'

After he summon his katana, he flew towards the creature who was holding a scythe who's size is about 10 times more bigger than him. Yet, he doesn't mind it and just kept on evading every attack that creature threw at him.

'Damn it... He isn't moving or even moved the other parts of his body in order to fight me! He was just fighting me using his right arm where he is holding his scythe!'

Jin thought, he kept on moving and trying to find an opening in order to atleast hit him with a little bit of damage. He is trying not to hurt a single soul in this place while trying to evade the opponent's attack towards him. It is nearly impossible for him to dodged but yet he is still trying.

'tssk..... Who even are you?! INFORMATION!'

Jin decided to use the skill he always use whenever he wants to k ow the identity of someone but this...

[Name: Death]

This is just insane. The skill where he always trust to know the stats, description, specialties and even age and name didn't work on this guy or should I say.....

"I am Death." Death says.

"I already know that so shut up!"

[You have activated the skill 'Red Claw'!]

A sharp aura has comes out of my fingers in the form of sharp slashes, Death then just swing his scythe horizontally and that aura is gone. That skill has able to help me get through a lot of situations yet that skill was just able to get erased by death without even a single bit of effort.

'i dont have any armour on me right now but.....'

I flew towards him, slashed, stabbed and even kicked if I have a chance but none of those even managed to hit or touched his cloak. I only kept on slashing until I felt his huge scythe about to penetrate my neck, I didn't dodged it and that's when I saw my body, holding the katana I always used and suddenly it just dissapeared. That's also the time when.....

"Jin!"

I heard Julian's voice. I felt both of his hand on my shoulders while his face is kind of close to mine.

"Huh?"

"What happened? You just kept on standing there, I called you three times excluding the last."

I finally get back to reality, I took a glance on my neck at the window. I saw that it doesn't have any cut nor any scars. What was that? What the hell just happened?

'Is that really death? Why would I see him now?'

A lot of things are currently bagging me but the problem on hand right now is more important, I hit this guy because he just kept on lying but there is already a proof and the person he harassed that says he is lying.

I take a look at Kara and she is also looking at me, she seems worried because I was just standing there. Seems like I looked like a person who got a shock due to an unknown fear.

"Sorry about what happened to Mr. Albert, I only did it because he tried to harass Ms. Kara and..."

It took some time to explain on what happened to them because I don't really have any idea what happened, I was just there when Julian uses his 'Truth Seeker' skill. It's very useful combined to my 'Information' skill.

We can pretty much get all the information we want from a person and just asked them questions, if Julian uses it to that person, we can determine whether they are lying or not. Very cool right?

Waiting for Julian outside the building, I felt a gaze coming from my side. I looked onto that direction and see Kara who is about to also go to my direction so I bow my head and greet her.

"Hello Miss, good afternoon."

I said, she looked worried about something. Is something bothering her?

"Uhmm..... Hey..... Are you okay? Is something bothering you earlier? You looked so pale and out of your thoughts when we were inside the building....." She asked.

'Oh...'

So she was worried about earlier. well, not like we can change anything that happened so what I can do right now is to reassure her that everything is fine.

"Yeah, I was just sleepy...."

"Oh..."

It doesn't sound very convincing but that's the only thing I can think of to say so let's just stick with it. The only person I can tell what really happened to me is Julian anyway because he knows about the system.

'But I have something on my mind right now.....'

What happened to the guys we fight about more than a week ago.....? How long has it been since? Those old comrades of Julian is strong and I am kind of worried that theyught do something to my sister or Julian's family... Do I have something I can buy on the shop to make their safety more efficient?

"Well... If you say so then..... Just be careful okay? Tell me if there is something I can help you with, I'll be glad to help you."

I waved my hand to her to as a way to say my goodbye, I also see Julian exit the building and then go toh direction.

On the way home, we both was just quiet. No one was talking and the only you can hear is the sound of our footsteps. Seems like he is still not sure if he can really asked what happened earlier.

"Hey, about what happened earlier... I think...." I started to talk.

I don't know how to explain this, I don't evem know if what I saw is real or not. But it seems very real. When the time I take a glance on my neck, I thought thay it was just me seeing or imagining things that is obviously not real but.....

After a few seconds of that, I felt my neck got a cut and when I touched it, it stings a bit and there is blood. I looked into it whem i go to the bathroom that's why I put a bandage on it to cover.

"It's okay if you don't want to tell me, I'm just worried anyway." He says.

I just used smiled and chuckled, decided to tell him what happened and what did I saw when we get home.

***

"So I'm telling you! I saw Death! I don't even know if that's real or not." I shouted to him with a food on my mouth.

He just kept on munching his food, while also listening to everything that I will say and thinking of it as If he was the ome who experienced it himself.

"I think it is occurring to something that was about to happen to the future, might be a warning..." He said.

"Well that must mean..." I said, looking at him seriously.

"Yeah. We might die or someone will die."
