"Send team H, L, N, Z, and C for a patrol of the inner palace" I ordered.

The maids bowed down and went out of the throne room.

"My King, what about those who have escaped?"

"Leave them to me"

"And what about these bodies?"

"Dispose of them"

"Roger"

"Daulla"

"Let's go"

We ran out of the throne room.

"I will get the car" Daulla said.

"No need"

"But they are so fast"

"We are too, right?"

She smiled and ran behind me.

"Lily, access the cameras near the palace and show me all the footage"

....

"Lily?"

Oh! She is sleeping.

I will let her sleep.

"I see one, Lil Das"

"There are 12 of them. Let's see who kills more"

"This is not something we should bet about"

"I will win"

Lily is sleeping so it would be tough doing something.

Let's see if I can use Oyuoral and make a mask or not.

I removed the ring from my finger and clutched it with my fist.

I imagined the shape to change into a mask, and a while later it changed into a mask.

I put the mask on my face and kept running.

I had differed those men in two types. Normal humans and artificial humans.

They were easy to figure out.

Normal human speaks, and the bleeds. While the artificial one never bleeds, or speaks.

They are just like robots, even worse and weaker than robots.

Robots have mechanical parts, while those artificial humans have human parts, but less than humans and robots.

They are just weak.

Weaker than humans, as they can't judge their actions. And weaker than robots, as they die if you pierce their c.h.e.s.t.

That's what I used to think, but after what had just happened now.

I don't know anymore.

They are human, but...I don't know.

A human can't move with a headless body.

So that means they weren't human?

Daulla and I had chased those men, and we have already killed ten of them.

Only 2 are remaining.

The surrounding areas are owned by us, and all the factories and industries are owned by us. And today, all of them are closed.

"I am at six" Daulla stated.

"I know. I will kill the remaining two, and we will be even"

"I really don't like killing"

"It's too late to say that"

Daulla and I were jumping on the building, looking for the remaining two and talking.

"I have killed hundreds. And whenever I killed someone, I had nightmares.

"...."

"I don't know if I should be really doing it or not"

"Daulla"

"I always think, what if there is another way? What if there is a way where we don't need to kill them?"

"Killing them is the best and the simplest way"

"I hope you are wrong"

"Don't hope it"

"I don't want you to stain your hands with blood"

"They were stained red a long time ago"

"There is a chance you can still go back to how you were before"

"I have always been this way"

"Not for me"

I spotted one man running into the construction site of an area.

I jumped down from the building and pushed him against the wall.

"Please let me go!"

"You think I will do that?"

"We were just told to assassinate you"

"By whom?"

"I can't say that"

I stabbed the sword an inch away from his face.

He wet his pants.

Are you kidding me?

Eww. It will get on my shoes.

So he is sacred, huh?

He was so scared that he wet his pants.

This is a human. Only humans do that.

So how were jumping like...could it be...

"I won't miss it again"

"Please let me go! I have a family"

"Oh, you have a family?"

"Yes. I have little children"

"I see"

I plucked my sword from the wall and put it back in the sheath.

I patted his shoulders and said, "My bad. I didn't know you had a family"

"You will let me go?"

"Of course. There is no way I can kill you. You have a family. Families are most important"

"Can I go now?"

"Yes, you can go. But first tell me who sent you"

"I can't say that"

"Come on. I am letting you go. Just tell me the name"

"I can't. If I tell, then they will kill me and my family"

"They said that?"

"Yes!"

"How cruel. I feel sorry for you"

"Please let me go"

Tears were rolling down from his eyes.

"I will take the responsibility of protecting you and your family. Just tell me the name"

"Do you promise you will take care of my family?"

"I swear to Edens' blood running through my veins. I will protect you. You have my word"

"Really?"

"Yes. Edens never lies. Just tell me the name"

"I don't know the name. But I know where they are"

"That's even better. Tell me, where are they?"

"South-east parliament. The lowest chamber on the right side. There is a room there. That's where we were told to bring your head"

"I see. Excellent, thank you very much"

"Can I go now?"

"Of course you can. I gave you my word, didn't I?" 

I helped him get up.

"Thank you very much"

"No need for thanks. In fact, I should be saying that"

"I will go now"

"Please" I showed him the way.

"That was easy, Lil Das"

"Yeah, it was"

I took out my sword from the sheath and threw it at that man.

The sword pierced his back and his body fell down.

"Very easy indeed"

"What...did you just do, Lil Das?"

"Huh? I killed him"

"Why?!"

"What do you mean why? They were here to kill me, what's wrong if we kill them? And didn't you kill more than me?"

"But...you promised him! You promised that you will let him go and protect him and his family!"

"Do you really believe I would do that? Come on"

"But you swore to your blood"

"Who cares?"

"You can't do that! Lil Das, what is wrong with you?"

"Come on, Daulla. You are making a fuss about something that shouldn't exist"

"You did something wrong"

"Let's just--"

That man got up with my sword still in his c.h.e.s.t and dashed at us.

I grabbed Daulla's sword and cut his neck, stabbing his c.h.e.s.t till I felt satisfied.

"See, Daulla? You wanted me to let him go?" 

She looked down and said, "I don't know what to do anymore"

"Just show no mercy to anyone"

"I don'like the..."

"What's wrong?"

"The spot below his neck is swollen"

I plucked my sword from his body and cut that spot.

"A chip?"

I cut the flesh and took it out.

"So my guess was right"

"What do you mean, Lil Das?"

"These men. They had system inside them"

"How is that possible?"

"There are two types of system, Internal system. Like me and..."

What type of system does Daulla have?

I never asked her that.

She just said there is a system inside her. And that Zero told her about her system.

She never said what type of system she has.

Internal or external?

Both are possibilities.
