Chapter 266 Get rid of Everyone
A woman's voice, it was something that Raze had taken note of since there were few females in the Red Headband group, at least compared to the males. Since there wasn't much to do, and many of the areas were surrounded by darkness, he had made a note of what they sounded like.
Which was why he was finding it odd, maybe it was the echoes or the voice bouncing off the wall that was distorting the voice, but it was clearly a voice he had never heard before.
'Wait, but then how would she know my name?' Raze thought.
An idea had popped into his head, but he was wondering how it would be possible for it to be that person.
'Could it be, did she already learn to use the restore spell so well, and that quick? She is more of a genius than I thought!'
Lifting up his hand, he let out a small spark, and the area lit up slightly, and now he could see the people in front of him. Almost instantly, he could see who those were in front of him. There were a few groans of pain from behind as well.
"Raze, are you okay? There's blood on you," Safa spoke.
Her voice, it was soft yet it traveled through the air smoothly. It was gentle on the ears even though she seemed to be concerned and worried. It was hard to imagine there could be a voice that would instantly calm a certain person.
"It's okay," Raze said, looking at his clothing; there were just a few specks of blood on his sleeve. It was surprising that someone even noticed it. "Your voice, you seem to have a nice voice."
"You managed to speak far sooner than I thought. I guess, there are some things that I need to ask you, but there is something that I need to do first."
Raze wanted to keep talking to Safa, to ask if she was okay, but having seen her, his body was quite calm. He could see that Dame and the others were there, so he knew she would be safe because there was no one that could defeat Dame down here, and only a few in the academy itself that could beat him.
Liam started to walk over along with the others, somewhat following Raze, wondering what he needed to do, and that's when he felt something hit his foot and roll on the floor.
"What, I thought there was something in here, is there some type of food!" Liam rushed forward and noticed he could see a small glowing light. When he reached the object, it soon came into view.
"Ahhh!" Liam screamed as he pointed at it. "It's an... an... an... arm!!"
Raze could see the student slowly trying to get up, but before he did, he swung his arm out.
"Push of the wind."
The wind magic pressed against the student's body, and he felt his whole body being pushed onto the wall.
"Who was it, which one was it that made you do this?" Raze asked. "Who convinced you to attack us?"
"Are you going to kill me? You should know, right, it was Alfred, you already killed him." The student worriedly replied. "He was the one that said we could split you up and get you in the dark, and if we couldn't get you, we could at least have killed Tinson here. If we did, then more of the students would act, and possibly even the main disciples would get scared."
It made Raze wonder at that moment whether or not there wasn't someone else behind this, and it was just the student named Alfred. It was quite possible that it was the case.
Raze then lifted his sword and placed it right on the neck of the other student. It was touching the edge of the wall at that point, and just a slight movement from the sword would slit his throat like it had done with all of the others.
"Are you sure that there was nothing else, no communication between the others, or any talk between Alfred and a few others?" Raze asked.
"There was, there was talk between Alfred and Tinson. It seemed he had asked about joining our group, but I don't know more than that. I promise I've told you everything I know; I can't bring back Alfred from the dead, but he would have known more. It's not my fault he's dead."
"You're right," Raze replied. "It's not, but it is his fault that you are."
He quickly moved the sword in one smooth motion, putting his Qi into his strike. Despite doing this, the strike was still silent as always. Even as it scraped against the wall, it hardly made any sound at all.
The effect of the sword seemed to work even when hitting other objects, which was an added bonus he didn't know about until now. As the sword glided across the back of the rock, it went right through the student's neck, causing his head to roll and fall to the ground.
The others, who were unable to see next to anything due to the lighting in the area, had only heard a thud against the floor, and the cries and breath of one less person.
"Did Raze kill him?" Liam whispered.
"Yes, I did," Raze replied. "These people, even though they thought I was a murderer, still decided to come after me. They were the ones that had set everything up, to try and get the others to turn on me. If I didn't finish them off here, they would have gotten more desperate as time went on."
"Besides, in the first place, we need to deal with this. This whole assessment won't end until they continue to get rid of more people. As time goes on, every single one of us will get weaker, so we need to deal with them."
"They wouldn't hesitate to take our lives, so we can't hesitate to take theirs as well, and it will send a message to all those that try."
Leaning down, Raze picked up the head and started to walk towards the exit. Hearing all of the words Raze spoke and experiencing everything, Tinson, who was in the room, was wondering if he was being let free. He was sure that he could hear all of the others losing their lives one after the other. Yet now Raze was walking away; was there anyone to stop him?
Slowly, he knew others were in the room, but he started to move against the edge of the wall, creating no sound until he found an exit. If he could just get into the seclusion room or the training room, maybe he could do something.
The others had quickly followed behind Raze, but they noticed he had moved quicker than they thought, and soon a few gasps and murmurs were heard on the other side.
The students that had been knocked out by the others had gathered in the training area, discussing what was happening, along with Tinson's two friends and the main disciples.
When Simyon and the others had entered, they quickly realized what it was that Raze had taken with him because he was holding the large round object in his hand right by his head.
"These people tried to attack me; they tried to take my life, and this is the result. Remember, I was never the one that instigated the attacking. Remember that if you do anything to harm me in any way, that this will be the result."
The disciples were quite shocked. This whole time, Raze hadn't claimed to be the murderer, and yet his actions now, the way he had done everything, it made them think that it couldn't be him.
Yet now he was a murderer, and he was even more feared compared to before, just to the point where he was unable to act on it anymore.
"I will not attack anyone; this is a statement. I will let you play with your own fate in this assessment," Raze claimed. "You can think of me as a bystander in all of this, or you can play your games to try and use me to get rid of more of you.
"But if that is the case, and I find out who you are that has decided to throw me into these games, I will get rid of you, just like I did him."
Rather than continue to hold onto the head or take it back with him, Raze chucked it over, by its hair strands, and it bounced on the ground once and rolled onto the floor in front of the others.
The students couldn't keep their eyes off it as they stared at it. On the way back, Raze walked over, and as he did, he stopped to look at Safa.
"Now that you can speak, there are some things I wanted to ask you if you don't mind. In particular, about our parents' death, or your parents' death. Let's have a nice chat," Raze claimed.
