Chapter 30: Us or them

\'One more to go\'

Lumen thought as he ran in a straight line over all of the foliage towards the last remaining archer.

------------

\'I should have never listened to that bastard Michael...\'

Taketa, the last remaining archer thought to himself as he ran and ran, not even bothering to look back at the pursuing Qu Quan.

\'Seriously what the fuck is up with Michael, sending use after this group of people. Why couldn\'t we have just went our separate ways.... Now because of that man\'s ego being a little hurt he caused two of us to die while we only got one of them. And now here I am stuck in this situation, running for my life. Thank god I chose a class with high agility otherwise I would be fucked too....\'

Taketa had been one of the people who had entered the tutorial with Michael, yes with him. For some reason the system didn\'t explain, Michael and Taketa had been taken from their place of business together and had landed in the tutorial in the same group.

Michael was his supervisor and manager at a security firm and so he had experience managing a group of people in combat situations, hence why he was so well equipped for the tutorial in both his own power as well as his ability to bring people together and lead.

However one big fault he has is that when someone hurts his ego, he doesn\'t take it lightly. Often times the others in his group suffer as a result of his hurt pride and ego as he sends them to do his bidding instead of settling disputes that he is the sole reason for himself.

And Taketa, a long time employee of Michaels for over 4 years before the tutorial was suffering the same fate as the previous two people missing from the 13 large group Lumen and his group met.

Michael didn\'t speak the truth when he mentioned the other 2, including a healer had died in battle against a powerful beast. It was only the half truth.

The full facts were that they had died in battle not against a beast, but a powerful human who held a very powerful talent and managed to take down two people with him even when it was 15 against one.

And now once again due to Michael\'s disputes, Taketa and the two other\'s had suffered a terrible fate, whittling Michael\'s group even more down to 10.

\'Fuck this, there is no way I can escape this situation now that that monster like spear warrior is on my trail...\'

Taketa\'s thoughts trailed away from Michael as he focused on the most prevalent enemy behind him, who had recently appeared along side Qu Quan with the other two trailing behind them.

\'I\'ll just surrender, I hope they can let me live...\'

With that he hesitated for a few seconds but decided to slow down and turn around towards the others with his hands in the air, pleading for his life.

"Please spare me! I didn\'t want this, I was forced by Michael! He is a ruthless man who will do anything to get his way to achieve his goals, including throwing people like me for over 4 years to the wolves..... Please just spare me, I promise you won\'t see me ever again, please!"

Taketa was now surrounded as the four out of the original five large group blocked his every escape.

All members had their eyes on Lumen as they now regarded him as their leader, including Will, as they awaited his decision on this matter.

Lumen stood there, taking in everyone\'s gaze, as well as Taketa\'s who was now on his knees.

However even though he kept eye contact with the man\'s pleading face that had dried tears still streamed down his cheeks, he felt no strong emotion, no sympathy. Nothing.

His decision was quick and didn\'t take much time to think over as he delivered the kneeling Taketa\'s sentence.

"If the roles were reversed, would you spare us? Did you even flinch when you fired your arrows towards us, knowing you intended to kill us? No, you kept up your pursuit even after one of us had already been killed by your team mate."

The more Lumen spoke, the more dread spread across Taketa\'s face as clearly the flow of Lumen\'s words was not in his favour at all.

"You are a hypocrite, and I would be a hypocrite if I spared you."

That was all Lumen said as he ignored Taketa\'s sobbing final desperate pleads and plunged his spear deep into his heart, his life leaving him in only a few seconds after.

Lumen finally had a look of relief on his face as he looked over towards Jake and the others.

"You understand why I did this right? He begged for mercy and I still killed him, does this make you feel disgusted, does it make you wish you had never followed me?"

Everyone stayed silent as they knew that if this were less than a week ago back on Earth, they should and would have felt this way in this situation. Hell, Will was even an advocate for abolishing the death penalty as punishment.

But now, in the moment they could only silently agree with what Lumen had done to Taketa as they knew that in this place, it was you or them.

Clearly Taketa and the other two archers wouldn\'t have spared them any mercy if the roles were reversed as they didn\'t even give any of them a chance to talk it our before they had mercilessly fired upon them, killing Shivi.

So why in this situation should they show any such sympathy and mercy to them?

They wouldn\'t, was the answer.

Very soon, they rounded up the three corpses of the archer\'s together, as well as bringing Shivi\'s body back.

Lumen didn\'t waste any time in searching each body\'s inventories for valuables to keep for themselves, including Shivi\'s body as they couldn\'t be wasteful in this place. They had to make use of every resource they had, especially potions and water.

Once Lumen was done, he turned to the others and spoke.

"It\'s time to send a message."
