The Legacy System

The clue about the next level was on the next room of that cheap hotel, where another cd, and laptop awaited him to have a look at.

It was the same setting as the first one, the only difference was the room, and the price of the room where he was on.

Now that he had left the room of earlier, and wasn't hearing those moans anymore, Kaito was in a much more collected situation.

His breathing was much more relaxed, and easy at that moment, as he stared at the cd for a while, and then finally placed it inside the laptop.

He knew that just like the first one even this cd was connected to one of the women that he held in higher regard than others, but there was nothing he could do about it.

Right now, he had truly become part of the game, and there didn't seem to be a way out of this game, besides either winning at the end or dying on the way.

The truth was that he still didn't think that the threat he received was real, but at the same time, he had a truly bad premonition.

From the tone of the voice in the other room, even though it was clearly a generic robotic voice, he felt a bit of an intent that made him shiver all over his body.

Anyway, he didn't have the time for leisure and thinking at that moment as the next cd started playing.

Once again, the start was a stupid rabbling about loyalty, brotherhood, and meaningless shit like that, as the next half was another woman getting banged by a faceless guy.

Even though the face of the guy never showed on the video, in fact, he was able to realize that it was the same guy, as they gave him the same feeling, and had the same mole on their right leg.

It was quite fascinating how he was able to find out something like that, in the sort of situation he was in, but that just showed the potential of his brain.

But his brain almost suffered another crash down when he was able to understand who the victim of the se*xual assault was this time.

This time, the camera didn't show the face, or any distinguishing feature, of the woman in the video, as it was part of the difficulty of the level.

The letter attached to the cd this time carried an extra condition, in order to continue with the second level Kaito needed to first find who the lady was.

Her name was the password to open her location, and only if he found it right would he be able to participate in the second level.

Otherwise, he was going to die!

With how many times he was hearing that threat was making him regard that less and less, but as if reading his thoughts, there was a notification on the back of the letter.

"Look under the bed!"

It felt like the organizer of the game was playing a stupid game to him, after all, he wasn't a kid anymore to be fearful of looking down under the bed.

He had passed that age a long time ago, as he had had to live alone all this time, so even though he felt a small premonition he went on with the instruction.

The more he got closer to the bed though the more was he able to hear a ticking timer, making him feel really puzzled about what it could be.

Lowering his body, removing the sheet of the bed, and finally stretching his neck under the bed, his whole situation seemed to change.

If it was just some kind of bogeyman he would have screamed a bit, and then ran away in fear, but what he saw made his whole body erupt into a cold sweat.

That was because what he saw under that bed, was a timed bomb. And according to the timer he had less than 16 seconds left and ticking.

His heartbeat started to beat according to the clock, with each passing second his heart was getting weaker and weaker.

Death was only a few seconds away from him! If he had doubted those words until now, at that moment he felt like he was truly going to die.

It didn't matter what he thought, or what he did his life was at the hands of the mysterious guy whose game he was playing.

As he thought like that the time was ticking and was no only 7 seconds and that guy didn't seem to have any intention of stopping it.

That scared the hell out of him, as he screamed to the space,

"Stop it, please! I will never doubt your words again! Please!"

The timer was still ticking, and by the time his voice sounded there were only 2 seconds left, making him seriously tremble profoundly and think that he was about to die.

1!

When he saw that number he immediately closed his eyes in fear and waited for the explosion to occur, something that didn't happen.

At first, he thought that he had died before he could even feel it, but then he heard a teasing and laughing robotic voice,

"Hhahaha~! This was so fun to watch! Your words and expression were top-notch Kaito. Hahaha~! Don't worry, I know you don't doubt my words because you value your life too much!

Now let's continue with the game, shall we!?"

It was only then that Kaito finally opened his eyes to have a look around him, the timer had stopped at 1, and he was still looking under the bed.

He hadn't died! He was still alive!

Only after thinking like that was he able to finally be able to breathe again, and his heart starts beating again, finally making him feel that he was alive.

Whoever was playing this game was most certainly a lunatic. A crazy motherfu*cker that didn't seem to care about human life, and even less him.

Such a lunatic was able to kill him whenever he wanted, and wouldn't even hesitate in doing so. Which made him feel so stupid for actually taken that life threat lightly.

He was in danger, in extreme danger. He had to win this game if he wanted to stay alive, if he didn't then he would surely die.

There was no guarantee that he would be able to survive even if he won the game, but there was an opportunity, and right now he could do nothing more but embrace that opportunity.

With those thoughts in mind, he immediately returned to the laptop where the cd was still playing, and without losing time he wrote the password and found the location of the 2nd target.

Surprisingly it was a place that he knew quite well, as he had been there many times. After all, the woman this time was someone really important for him.

Even though their relationship couldn't really be branded as love, or like, it wasn't some empty intimacy either.

She was for him a small lighthouse that would always help him in his time of need. Perhaps she had fallen for him, but her feelings weren't reciprocated.

Still, she was someone that he truly valued, and couldn't easily throw away. In fact, for a moment there he felt extremely angry, and furious that she had been made a part of this, on her behalf.

But there was nothing he could do about it, besides going there to continue with the game. If the second level was the same as the first, then he would be able to clear it easily.

With those thoughts in mind, he immediately got on his way and started running towards the third venue for the day.

He was quite tired and was slowly reaching his limits, but he felt like he would regret it, should he get there even one minute later.

So even though his body seemed to be at the limit, even though he seemed to be close to passing out on the way there, he still continued running towards the place.

Nothing seemed to be working his way in this damned day, as the moment he reached there he found out that the current was cut for the building.

Climbing the stairs for five floors was most certainly a hellish experience, but he still managed to climb and walk towards the apartment.

The door to the apartment was closed, as he rang the bell like he had gone crazy, until the door finally seemed to open, and a head popped at the door.

There was no way for him to not recognize the person who that head belonged to, it was her without any doubt, the woman for which he had arrived here for.

The face of that woman was weird, she looked like she was forcing herself to not release a sound, or do something that she might regret.

In fact, she looked like a little kid caught doing something bad, and that she would get her just punishment in not time.

Her face was completely red, so were her ears and neck, as even her hair seemed to be electrified at that moment.

But before he could say a thing, he heard that darn robotic voice from inside once again,

"Welcome to the 2nd level venue Kaito. It is such a pleasure to have you here, ready to participate in this 2nd level of the game for 4 million dollars."

The moment those words sounded, the woman in front of him seemed to get extremely shocked, as the expression on her face grew even more complicated…
