"This..."
Standing above a high-rise building, Triton looked at the notification that appeared before him.
His expressions were a sight to behold, but he wasn't worried about himself. He was worried about the young players.
It had only been two hours since they entered this place, and now High Ranking Vampires were going to move?
It was the worst thing that could happen to them. If they were wise enough, they would have started running right now.
Unfortunately, most of them were overconfident in their skills.
They had only dealt with the Lowly Vampires, so they did not know the terror of High Ranking Vampires yet.
Only ten minutes were left before the High Ranking Vampires beca active, and once that happened, it could only be a bloodbath.
Thanks to the restrictions, the Vampires weren't allowed to attack or stop the Players unless they were attacked. But with the restriction gone, it was truly a disaster for these inexperienced players.
"Which fool..." Triton muttered, unable to believe the notification.
Most of the Players should still be in the outer region of the city. Then who could have done sothing like this? He was cursing that fool in his mind, for not knowing his place.
A place that could weaken the restriction tiline even for the Vampire Lord? He could only imagine what kind of place the person had entered.
There was only one place that he could think of. And there were only two people he could think of.
They were the top two rankers in this Trial. They were also the most arrogant in the group that even dated to talk back to him.
He hadn't cared about them because he didn't expect them to cause such a ss. But he didn't expect them to do sothing so foolish.
He wondered if it was his fault. Was it because he did not warn them against it? Is it because he looked down on them?
Unfortunately, it was too late now. He could not do anything. Just like the Vampire Lord had restrictions, he also had restrictions.
"How brave of the younglings to think that they can steal my food. But thanks to them, I truly got to see sothing interesting."
"I rember the last ti soone tried this. There were no Trials or restrictions then. I'm sure you also rember what happened then, right?"
The Vampire Lord smirked as if he was looking back on fond mories.
Triton's expressions beca even uglier.
"I really hope they can survive more than an hour. I really want to see them myself." The Vampire Lord laughed.
....
"Looks like I spoke too soon."
Seojin looked at the notification screen, frowning. He had thought that they still had two hours before High Vampires were going to be free, and four hours before Noble Vampires could do that.
All his plans ca crashing down with this notification. Ten minutes. That was all they had now. In these ten minutes, it was impossible to free the humans.
Even if they could free them, they couldn't help them escape.
He turned to Lee Taehyung who didn't look even the slightest surprised.
"Did you expect it?"
With the Regressor's expressions, Seojin was even more confird that he had tried sothing like this in the past.
In that case, there was no way for him to succeed. Then why? If he knew that this was going to happen, why did he agree with this plan? Sothing still seed amiss.
"Are you going to run now? If we run, with the amount of Vampires you killed, you should be able to maintain your rank."
Lee Taehyung did not answer Seojin's question. He asked a question of his own.
"It is impossible to save a million humans in this place. You might be able to survive the onslaught of High Vampires, but when the Noble Vampires react after half an hour, it'll be over."
He folded his arms, looking at Seojin with great interest. He was curious to see just what kind of decision this man was going to take.
Once upon a ti, he was in the sa situation. He had also tried to free the humans. He was also surprised with the notification when he had first entered this building.
At that ti, he was also t with a similar choice. Was he going to run? Or was he going to take another path?
He made a decision at that mont. He did not run. He did sothing that could truly be considered demonic by many.
He was curious to see if Seojin was going to make the sa decision. Was he going to run away and leave these humans in misery? Or was he going to do sothing at the cost of his own conscience.
"What would you have done if you were in my place?" Seojin asked.
"Who knows? I will leave the decision to you."
Lee Taehyung did not answer. It was a test for Seojin to see if he was truly worthy.
'Let see, what will you do? You can't save anyone. You can't save even a single person. Thirty minutes isn't enough to save them, but it is enough to kill them. So will you abandon them in this hell?'
'Or will you do what I did? Will you kill all the humans here and free them from this life of suffering, while also screwing over the Vampires?'
'Will you choose the easy way out and escape? Will you be satisfied with the status quo? Or will you free them from this life and carry that sin on your shoulder for as long as you live?'
Lee Taehyung was looking forward to the choice that Seojin was going to make. His own future actions depended on this one choice.
If Seojin chose to take the easy way out and run, he was going to be really disappointed.
It was a situation in which there was no good outco. In this world, you could not be a hero. You could only be a coward or a villain.
'So what will you beco? A coward or a villain?'
