Chapter 665 Hide and Seek
It has already been an hour and fifty minutes since the game started, which means only twenty minutes were left until the New God Re' Khe Hata starts chasing them. The group had found several good hiding spots and were now debating as to where they should hide.
"We should hide in that old bunker, it has a lot of food and it's difficult to find in the forest. As long as that so-called God doesn't cheat, we can survive there for a few weeks."
"No, we shouldn't hide there. I think it's better to hide in that small place in the middle of town in the basement. You know hide in plain sight all that sh*t, he would never guess that we were hiding in such a place."
"Are you kidding me? You two are both wrong the places you pick once discovered we'll be sitting ducks, we should hide in the sewers and move around so that it will be harder for us to spot him."
Erste who was at the side listened to everyone's opinions but the situation got worse and the argument became extremely heated. The time when the New God starts hunting was closing in and they needed to make a decision it was at this time someone suddenly suggested something that no one wanted to say.
"Enough! I can't trust you guys I'll go do my own thing. Those of you that want to survive should join me!"
As the time given to them was about to end the group of students became agitated and aggressive. Seeing them act like this made Erste sigh, on the other hand, Nikki was getting irritated.
"Shut up all of you!" Nikki could no longer hold it in and shouted at them in a rage. When everyone had quieted down she spoke in a cold tone. "Since none of you seem to have a united answer then we should break up here and do our own thing to survive. I don't know about you sh*theads but I don't want to die because of some stupid disagreement later on. What do you think Erste?"
After speaking Nikki didn't forget to put all the attention on Erste who was staring at the frightened expressions on everyone's faces.

I know everyone is scared and stressed out because of what's happening right now, and I no matter what I say will not be able to comfort any of you. I'm not some kind of leader nor am I a hero that could save you... If you want to leave and do your thing then do so, I will not tell you that staying together will increase our chances of surviving since it's not the truth. The truth of the matter is I don't know what's going to happen, I don't know if staying together is better or going our separate ways is the better way, the choice is for you guys to make... I won't force you but if you want to follow me then you can, if you want to do things your way then that's your decision. That's all I have to say."
Once Erste was done saying his piece the group became silent for several seconds. The students looked at Erste waiting for him to say more but not a single word came out after.
"Fine, I guess this is where we part ways. I hope you guys survive."
"Until we meet again."
"Damn it, why the f*ck are we so unlucky!"
The group then dispersed and only Nikki and two others stayed with Erste.
"Are you guys sure?"
"Heh, I'm sticking with you until the end." Nikki boldly proclaimed as she smiled brightly.
"I guess if I'm going to make a bet, I should bet on the strongest one, right?" The one who spoke was one of Erste's classmates a guy who loves playing video games named Miguel.
"I believe in your skills, I trust that you can take us home." Tala a girl who usually only has an interest in reading manga and light s was unfortunate enough to come to this welcoming party and be in her current predicament.
"I'll try my best."
...
The time for the hunt has started the New God Re' Khe Hata had started moving. Re' Khe Hata had already played this game several times now and his best record was ten minutes. That time the prey had actually come out and challenged him feeling that they were some sort of hero group. Of course, even after handicapping himself greatly the fools had no chance of winning. The longest hunt he had was five days, that group had actually found a way to hide deep underground without using the bunkers all over the place.
'I wonder what kind of prey will it be this time.' Re' Khe Hata had a mischievous smile on his face as he went to the first hiding spot the prey would usually pick. Re' Khe Hata who was walking towards the nearest bunker suddenly frowned.
'Tsk, damn somebody entered my hunting ground without permission. It must be one of those pests that have been messing with the game... No matter, I'll kill those pests alongside everybody else.'
Re' Khe Hata's good mood had entered as he entered the bunker, and his mood continued to improve as he saw two students huddled together in the corner of the bunker and one of them actually confronting him head-on.
"Who are you, why are you doing this?"
"Please, please, please don't kill us. Please, I'll do anything you want, just don't kill us."
"You b*stard do you know who I am? Get me out of here already and I'll tell my dad to only hurt you a little bit... Hey did you not-" The annoying young man was slapped by Re' Khe Hata and his head exploded. Seeing this scene the two students who were hugging each other felt an immense amount of fear, one of them even peed.
"Please, please, please don't kill us, I'll do anything." One of the girls started undressing, and seeing this scene Re' Khe Hata started laughing.

"Hoh, are you not going to beg?" Re' Khe Hata looked at the last girl with interest.
"Will it matter if I beg or not, you'll kill me anyway, right?"
"Well, who knows, I might feel pity for you and let you go."
"..." The girl did not respond to what Re' Khe Hata said and simply took out a rusty nail and pierced it into the girl's leg who screamed closed her eyes.
"Tsk, how boring..." Re' Khe Hata looked at the girl for several seconds and the frown on his face turned into a cruel smile. "I see, so you won't beg for mercy, then I'll make you beg." Re' Khe Hata took out a rusty nail and pierced it into the girl's leg who screamed in pain, Re' Khe Hata then proceeded to pierce more rusty nails into the girl's legs.
"How about now, will you beg?"
The girl who was screaming in pain was crying as she nodded her head and started begging.
"Please end the pain, please just killed me."
"Well, I wonder... I think I won't kill you I want to hear you scream some more." Re' Khe Hata pierced another nail this time into the girl's shoulder.
"Why! You said I just need to beg, please just killed me!"
"I did ask you to beg, but I never said if you did I will end your suffering. I want to play some more." Re' Khe Hata cackled as he continued to use the nails on the girl's body.
