BXBX NOVEL Chapter 359 - The Incident (II)
The incident is a school hostage-taking. Apparently, a few street gangsters have gained some illegal guns from somewhere and decided to give it a whirl. Due to their thirst for violence, they decided to test it out and see if they can get away with it. According to the reports, the leader was trying to hostage a bank but due to the tight security and they are not ready, they wanted to test the waters on invoking fear to the public.
So, they decided to choose a big public place where they can create terror and potentially escape without a problem. And the unfortunate public place is none other than our school. Sure there are guards in the gate that blocks anyone who tries to enter but if you are rendered unconscious by them, there is no other way for you to wake up at all.
Now, I am the unlikely one who knows what will be happening soon. Once I get rid of the trouble here in our classroom, I will be going to save the others. How big is the gang that occupied our school? Pretty big enough to take a hostage in most classrooms.
Then, the clock strikes. The moment the clock strikes, two men also sprung out from the door carrying guns. I am not familiar with the brand of guns but if I guess on it, it looks like a rifle, and the other guy is holding a pistol while his side has some big machete slinging back in the fort. And just to take note, these guys are not just heartless bastards, they don\'t even care about life as they are prepared to kill.
"Oi quiet down your little piece of sh*ts! If you don\'t yammer down your mouths, I will just ram up this gun to your mouths and fill it with bullets," the guy holding the rifle ordered causing the girls to panic and the boys to shirk in fear. After all, it\'s a gun and complaining will only get you killed.
However, I don\'t want to risk anything and wait for a miracle to happen. I tried thinking of a way to summon my wolf mask in the Alternate World. I know I can\'t hide my face here with my classmates but I have to worry about the others once I rescue them later. If my Versatile Weapon can be summoned, the other items can be summoned too.
I quickly imagined my hands pulling out the Pure White Wolf Mask and to my surprise, I can indeed pull it out. Without waiting for the hostage-takers to take any action, I don the mask and charge forward to the hostage-takers.
"GUYS! GET DOWN!"
The moment I shouted that, my classmates who are panic-stricken quickly duck down to their chairs. As for me, I summoned the Versatile Weapon the moment I leaped out and changed it to a Shield and Spear. The surprised hostage-takers were not expecting someone to leap out and they started firing.
"Who is this f*cker!?"
However., the shield and spear that I summoned are already the Shield and Spear of Pride. Any attack taken from it will be absorbed and I can reflect it whenever I want. So when the bullets were blocked, I immediately gained some charges to reflect against. I crash the shield to the rifle guy while I pierce the shoulder of the guy with pistol and machete.
Once I gained the momentum, I activated the ability of the Shield.
"[Vanagloria]!"
BANG!
The reflect damage that I did was too strong for the guy with a rifle to handle and the moment he received it, it was too great that before he can react, he was vaporized and only blood exploded around the place. His guts were also gone, leaving only him being liquified. His clothes managed to survive though but that\'s all there is to it.
The other guy screamed and tried to pull out the aim on his gun in his hands but I quickly impale his hands with the spear, causing him to release the gun from his grip.
"GAAAAAAAHHHHH!"
It must have been really painful to receive my spear but I have no mercy on anyone who is just a straight-up murderer without remorse if they ever killed anyone. It is only the right thing to kill them to minimize the fatality rate of the students. After all, they can\'t fight back.
"P-please! Spare me!"
"Forgiving sinners like you is up to God, to send them to him is up to me. So, the answer is no."
After that, I stab my spear into his chest and he spurted out blood. He pulled out one last breath before his eyes dilated after that. He died in the process.
Once I kill the guy, I stood up and the other students especially some of the guys were able to recognize me.
"That mask...isn\'t that the mask of the champion of the Battle For Blood in Alternate World? You know, Bladeheart?"
"What? So Bladeheart was our classmate all along?! Bladeheart and Manato is the same badass guy in the Alternate World?!"
"Holy sh*t dude!"
Riko didn\'t expect it while Janus gives a thumbs up. After all, he already knows that I am Bladeheart especially since I helped him in the game, only someone who can\'t easily connect the dots will not realize Bladeheart and I are the same person.
The guys have gotten rowdy while the girls are still trying to process what happened. Of course, there are also some girls who are also excited when they saw my mask. Perhaps they are also a player or they have watched what happened in the arena on the internet.
"Guys. I know I just killed someone but if I didn\'t, we don\'t know who will be killed instead. Please understand what I just did."
Our class president, Haruno Komaki stood up, immediately recovering from what happened.
"Don\'t worry, Manato. You saved our lives out there. We don\'t know what their problem was but you did the deed to protect us and you can trust that your secret is good with us."
Then one of the girls pointed out my weapon.
"So, that means the weapons he was holding were from the game?"
That\'s when some of the boys also realized it.
"So he can actually summon our weapons into the real world?"
"Is it possible to learn this power?"
I stood up and went back to Riko and Janus.
"Guys, I will leave it to you guys to explain and calm down everyone. I have to eliminate the others down too."
Janus nodded. I looked at Riko and pat her shoulder. "I will explain later once I returned."
After that, I doused myself with some cleaning magic and removed the blood from my clothes before I went out of the room and donned a cape, and replaced my clothes. It is fine with my classmates but if it is other people, I can\'t guarantee it. Therefore, I decided to do this first.
Once I have done that, I am now fully covered and my uniform is already changed from my adventurer clothes. Time to go vigilante.
The nearest room has a girl screaming, if I remember correctly, someone died here due to excessive resistance. I think it was the class president who was killed so I think this is what is happening right now.
I slide the door open and charges forward towards the little f*cker who was guarding the door and didn\'t expect my entrance. It was too sudden so when I appeared, I immediately kicked the guy off, sending him flying to the opposite side, and changed my weapon into a Hook and chain before I throw the hook and catches the other guy who was trying to strangle the girl who I assumed to be the class president.
"Come here you little f*cker and repent!"
The guy fell down the ground after I pulled him with the hook and before he could stand back up, I changed my weapon into a Magic Sword and stab his chest. But he didn\'t die immediately. He struggled for a bit so I can say he is a bit resilient in damage. However, I don\'t care about how resilient he was.
I activated my ability of the lightning and allowed the Magic Sword to conduct the electricity.. Due to the sword still being embedded to his chest, the moment the electricity comes charging in, the voltage kicks in, electrocuting him to death.
