I Didn't Choose the Gangsta System, the Gangsta System Chose Me

"He jumped!?"

Nebarius just arrived, not knowing he had given Joren a chance to do something unthinkable. He then leaped and was about to catch up to him but was stopped by Hades.

"Stop, there's no need to follow him. Even if he's a strong lesser undead, he's still a lesser undead. He will survive but barely." Hades chuckled in amusement, "Go and fetch him on the ground."

Hearing this instruction, Nebarius could just silently nod.

'That was close!'

When he saw Joren foolishly jump, Nebarius suddenly had this urge to jump and save the guy.

'He's my saviour so my body reacted like that. If I were to save him, the Lord will mark me as an accomplice and what Joren's punishment will be is also mine.'

There was a bitter taste that formed inside his three mouths.

"Ar, is this the right thing?" the right head asked the middle head.

But Ar, the middle head, just glared at the right head.

"This is not about what is right or wrong. If we follow our impulse, we are damned." the left head said to the right head with a grim tone.

"Let's not ponder much about this. Once Joren is gone, we will forget about him after some time. In the end, he's just a mortal." Nebarius then thought back about what Osmin said and just shrugged it off as random babbling to get a reaction out of him.

'But is Osmin the type of woman to joke around something so serious?'

After a while of pondering, Nebarius just sighed. He then looked out the window. From there, he couldn't see the ground, just the white mist.

"He should've hit the ground now." said the left head.

"Wait, let me take a rest here first. It's not like he's going anywhere. All of his bones must be broken, hell, he might not even be conscious. He will not die because he's technically not alive in the first place." the middle head, Ar, said.

Neither of the heads on either side replied. Although they have slight differences in how they think, they are all aware of what's on each other's minds at that moment.

They couldn't bear to see Joren's state after that fall.

'Why did you step in? Why did you save me? I should've died. I can't even return the favor…'

While in the middle of his regretful thoughts, an echoing explosion reached Nebarius's three pairs of ears.

"What's that!?"

Thinking that there's a third ruckus that night, Nebarius leaped down and flew to where the source of the sound was. With his speed, he was able to arrive there in a blink of an eye. There, he found that there was a huge hole on the wall that surrounds the palace.

For a general like him, punching a hole through the wall is an easy feat. However, to do so with the thought of offending the Lord of the Underworld would be another case.

"Ghouls, who's the idiot that caused this mess!?"

Nebarius asked and two 'zombies' came up from the grounds before standing up straight and saluting like soldiers.

"We didn't see, Sir!"

"We were sleeping, Sir!"

"Useless fools!" Nebarius' left and right heads palmed their faces while Ar glared at the ghouls.

"But sir, we have surveillance here, Sir!" one of the ghouls then pointed at the eyeball that was sticking onto the wall.

"Then, whose eye is this to tell me what happened!?"

"We don't know, Sir!" the pair of ghouls said at the same time, making Nebarius want to slap them to death.

Oh, wait.

"So unorderly! I was serving the Lord personally this whole time that I failed to notice how lax the ghouls have become!"

Nebarius said as he poked the eyeball.

"... oo-!.."

A muffled shout came from under the ground. Nebarius walked to it and easily pierced the ground with his hand and took out the ghoul that screamed in pain as if he just scooped fish from a pond.

"Tell me what you saw!"

"S-sir, someone punched the wall, Sir!" the ghoul that's missing an eye said.

"Who!?"

"I don't know who he is, Sir, but he came from over there!" the ghoul pointed at the sky.

Nebarius raised an eyebrow and was about to accuse the ghoul of lying when he realised something.

He stood up with puzzled eyes and walked to the ground beside the wall. That area was empty except for the two deep footprints that's accompanied by cracks. Before he even saw the two deep footprints, Nebarius was already stunned by the fact that nothing was there.

A few moments earlier, Joren jumped from the window with zero hesitation. The feeling of falling has woken Kidrith up who just lost her consciousness a while ago.

"We're… falling…!!?" Kidrith's drowsiness instantly disappeared. With her strength diminished, she has no energy to put up a defence. For a half-fury such as herself, it would be a great shame to die due to falling from a height.

Mortals only do that!

"Yes!" Joren immediately answered with a focused expression on his face.

"We might survive but this will be the last of us! Joren, thank you for tryin-"

"Shut up!" Joren replied with deep crevices between his brows.

This made Kidrith sadly frown, "You jerk! I want to say my final words and you won't let me, we're near the grou-"

"I said shut up and hold on tight!" Joren shouted before using both arms to carry Kidrith.

"You're a rea-"

Boom!*

Kidrith was interrupted the third time as they made impact on the ground. Clouds of dust covered the entire area and when Kidrith came back to her senses, she realised… she still has her senses…!?

At the last moment, she felt Joren's arms acting like cushion to lessen the fall but how could he accomplish that with his feeble strength!?

After some time, the dust slightly cleared up and Kidrith finally saw Joren's face. He wore a strange yet great smile.

"Heh…"

She only heard an arrogant sound from Joren before he ran off.

"We… we survived?"

"Of course, we will." Joren said before stopping before the tall wall of the palace.

"... a dead end. There's normally no guards here since no one dares to invade the palace." Kidrith had yet to process what happened, "If only I had a little bit of my strength, I could jump from here."

"There's no need to jump."

Kidrith heard before she was placed down.

"What… are you going to do?" she asked as Joren stretched his right arm before another unthinkable happened.

BANG!*

The shockwave from the explosion made Kidrith's long black hair undone and flutter.

Before she knew it, there's a hole in the wall accompanied by Joren's laughter.

"Not bad, not bad."

Kidrith looked one more time and now with her jaw dropped.

"H-how… how can a lesser undead have that much power!?"

Joren offered his hand to her again. With a joyous smile, he asked, "Who are you calling a lesser undead? I'm a human."

Kidrith took his hand again before she was pulled and was carried away again.

Meanwhile, Virena sensed something strange.

[What's the situation there, Virena!?] Ness' voice sounded from her earphones.

"Not good, Principal, the monster is on the loose!"

[Okay, restrain him and I'll respond as soon as I finish building Joren's altar!]

"Okay, Principal," Virena nodded in understanding before did not, "but why!?"

Back to the UnderWorld, Nebarius realised that Joren was able to escape. As if a mountain of burden was lifted from his chest, Nebarius' heads looked at each other with a smile before they went to report to Hades.

'Did that Joren hide his strength all this time!? If he does come back as Fated just as Osmin said, I will return the favour even if it costs me my life!'

He went to Hades to report. If he did not then before Joren even comes back, Nebarius will not be there.

"My Lord, Joren have escaped."

"What!?"

Hades, who was waiting for Joren's body, stood up with doubtful eyes.

"He ran off before I could catch him, My Lord!"

"Nebarius…!!" Hades was about to explode and take it on Nebarius before remembering, "No, you mustn't be able to catch him because you're still recovering… but still, just how could that lesser undead still have the ability to run in that state!?" after some thoughts, Hades knew he could no longer chase after Joren himself.

'Although I have the helm of invisibility, it would be too suspicious for him to just 'fly' back to the palace'

Hades didn't want to risk being caught since there surely are monsters and demons out there that would notice that Joren was dragged off by an invisible man. There are few individuals out there that can turn invisible.

"Contact Ceberus and let him handle that problematic lesser human. I want him alive but since he have been so lucky lately, I don't care anymore. Just kill him!"

He ordered and Nebarius followed.

"Either you stay here and let me find you or you will try to foolishly escape and meet Cerberus. There's nowhere to run now, Joren!"
