Who hid My Corpse!

Chapter 406: Fifty-three What if my next target is Hewinia? (7K)_4

The old Player squinted his eyes, “No, there should still be a chance to repair it, just…”

He lifted his head and looked towards Ogg.

In that instant, Ogg felt a tremendous danger.

“All right, kid.” The female Player immediately pulled Ogg up and slapped him hard, “It’s all over; get back to the academy quickly and bring the news.”

Then she gave Ogg a kick.

Ogg turned back, trembling with fear, to see that the old Player hadn’t said much, but his gaze at the female Player had already darkened, clearly displeased with her actions.

“What are you still looking at?”

The female Player glared at Ogg, and he could only nod, preparing to leave.

Afterward, he heard a puzzled question from the young male Player behind him: “Huh? What’s this about a bone?”

“What?”

“Teacher, look at this, there’s a bone here that wasn’t smashed by your Magic Power hammer.”

“How could this be… wait, what is this?!”

“Move back, move back!”

“Aaaaaah!”

Ogg hadn’t left the library, and suddenly the situation erupted.

He had no idea what was going on and turned instinctively, then saw a sight that he would never forget.

Cesar, who had just been smashed into a pulp, was standing there perfectly fine, covered in blood.

But clearly, the blood wasn’t his.

The two Players who had just attacked him now lay flattened against the wall like squashed flies, their crushed bodies turning both walls blood-red.

And all of this happened too fast, so they hadn’t fully died yet; at least not by the time Ogg looked over, he could see fear and despair on their flattened faces.

The only survivor in the Orchestra was the same female Player, who had the same reaction as Ogg.

By the time she realized what had happened, Cesar had already grabbed her head and slammed it down on the table.

Just like she had held Ogg moments before.

“Do you see?” Cesar said with a radiant smile to Ogg, “This is power, Ogg. If it hadn’t been for this woman, the old man would have wanted to kill you to silence you just now. In their eyes, killing you, a nobody from the Seed District, is as simple as breathing, and in my eyes, killing them is just as simple. This world is like this; if you can’t eat others, you’ll be eaten.”

“Tell me, if it wasn’t for this woman just now, what could have saved your life? Morality or reason?”

“Wake up, you and I both come from the Seed District. Why can I become a wolf that eats everyone while you can only be a harmless sheep?”

Saying this, Cesar kicked the Magic Wand over to Ogg.

“Come, kill this woman,” Cesar said loudly, “as your first step toward becoming a wolf!”

He pressed the woman in front of Ogg. She struggled desperately, but it was to no avail; she could only look at Ogg desperately, shaking her head continuously.

And Ogg, after taking the Magic Wand, clenched his teeth tightly but made no move.

“If you don’t kill her, I’ll kill you!” Cesar aimed the Magic Wand at Ogg, and massive Magic Power gathered at the tip, “Do it now!”

Ogg had never felt so close to death.

His body trembled uncontrollably, and the woman’s face of despair was right in front of him.

Even if he was unwilling to strike, under the pressure of life and death, his body involuntarily started to move, lifting the Magic Wand little by little.

“Yes, that’s right,” Cesar said, laughing, “Kill her! Prove yourself! You are already a Silver Note; you have the strength to kill her. Do it now!”

The Magic Wand in Ogg’s hands slowly lit up.

Yes, he was a Silver Note now.

To kill a defenseless woman would take only a second.

Just one second, and he could survive.

That was what Ogg thought.

And then,

A memory buried deep within his heart suddenly surfaced.

“Hevni, Hevni Hewinia.”

“What’s wrong?”

“Why do you want to play with me? Even though I’m so, so…”

“Because… you are kind.”

A crisp sound.

The Magic Power gathering at the tip of the Magic Wand dissipated quickly, drifting away like dandelion seeds.

Ogg put down the Magic Wand.

“Just kill me.”

He said so.

Cesar slightly narrowed his eyes, sensing that Ogg was no longer afraid.

“Quite… interesting,” he said softly, “You really surprised me, Ogg.”

Ogg didn’t speak; he just looked at Cesar.

At that moment, the woman began to plead, “Don’t kill me, I beg you, don’t kill me. I also come from the Seed District, I’m also from there; I’m the same as you!”

Cesar lowered his head to look at the woman underneath him: “Is that so? You’re from the Seed District, too?”

“Yes!” The woman nodded repeatedly, “I also come from there, we’re the same!”

“I see.” Cesar nodded slightly, then raised his head again to look at Ogg, revealing a smile, “If that’s the case…”

He loosened his grip slightly, and just when Ogg thought he might spare the woman, Cesar suddenly exerted force.

A “thud.”

The woman’s head was ripped right off.

Blood instantly soaked Ogg’s entire body.

Ogg stood stunned.

“Do you know how a wolf that grew up among sheep proves it’s a wolf?” Cesar said with a light laugh, “Simple, it eats the sheep it grew up with. Only wolves can eat sheep; sheep can only be eaten. That’s what I did back then; I earned my Silver Score by killing my brother.”

“I had hoped you’d do the same so you could understand how I feel. Unfortunately, you’ve disappointed me. I was going to kill you right then, but there would be no sense of achievement in that, so… ”

Cesar dropped a book of ‘Promotion Magic’ in front of Ogg.

“Become a Golden Note tonight while your Silver Note hasn’t fully settled,” Cesar said, “When you’ve succeeded, I’ll come for you.”

Ogg shook his head: “I won’t let you continue collecting notes.”

“Heh, I’ve had your note for a long time, I don’t need yours. Of course, if that’s all I said, you probably wouldn’t listen to me.” Cesar tilted his head, “So…”

He suddenly bent down and whispered softly in Ogg’s ear.

“What if my next target is Hewinia?”
