Kuzu's eyes were wide open. Sweat dripped from his neck, he stared at the scene with a cold gaze.
Kamiya stabbed his dagger into Onogi's face and made a mess out of his head. Kuzu could not take it anymore. Doing that to Onogi's clone looked no different from doing it to Onogi-san directly.
Kuzu grabbed the wireless mouse and moved its pointer to the end of the screen to close it but he stopped when Kamiya stopped.
Hitori and Reon turned their eyes away from the scene. The body that lay in front of Kamiya disappeared into pixels and they received a notification.
[you have cleared the last floor]
[you have conquered the Clone Dungeon level twenty-six]
[World Announcement: The end to Emperor Onogi's winning streak! The rookie trio of God's Hell, Ryu, and Leonine has conquered one of Emperor Onogi's dungeons, being the trio to put an end to Emperor Onogi's streak]
None of them cared. Hitori was more concerned about Kamiya because his trauma looked pretty… bad. While Reon did have a thought 'and now we have everybody's attention.' she was more concerned about Kamiya too.
Her fear was a phobia while Kamiya's fear was a trauma, a pretty bad trauma. But Reon was the one who knew what the trio would have to face.
Conquering one of the Onogi's dungeons means war. A war against not only Onogi but against the science community because Onogi rules the community.
People would gather, attack, rob, and even kill on Onogi's orders, Reon knew that much about her graduated senior. And if anybody finds her identity– she would have to kiss her academy goodbye.
While she was aware of these dangers and while she was afraid– maybe scared to hell– she was trying to come up with a way to confront Kamiya regarding his trauma along with Hitori.
Kuzu watched them without pressing his mouse's left side, he held it right there and increased the volume to eavesdrop on their conversation.
Kamiya looked down at the red spoiled floor. He banged his dagger on the tile and sobbed, "fuck you… fuck you all!" he mumbled in pain.
Hitori took a step forward and so did Reon. Kamiya lifted his fist and hit a tile, he did it again, "Onogi… Kuzu…" Kamiya lifted his teary eyes, and a tear dripped down his cheek, "I am coming for you and I am not scared this time." Kamiya cried.
Kamiya controlled himself. He rubbed his eyes and dropped his head back. Kamiya opened his arms, blood tipped from his dagger, and screamed, "Onogi fucking Masao!" Kamiya shouted, "Kuzu fucking Erabu!" Kamiya pulled his head forward, "It is a war!" Kamiya declared war against his enemies.
Kuzu gritted his teeth so hard that one almost went back into his gums. Kuzu tightened his grip on the mouse and… crushed it to pieces.
A few pieces went into his palm but he did not care, "War? Hah, I will fuck you up… AGAIN!"
Bang!
Kuzu banged his fist on the table, and the wooden table cracked. Kamiya opened his fist and stood up from his chair.
Switch.
Kuzu saw as the screen went blank and a message appeared, "your dungeon has been conquered by God's Hell, Ryu, and Leonine. You can not spectator the raid anymore."
Kuzu's head started shaking in anger, he tightened his fists, blood reached his knuckles and tipped down, drop by drop, slowly, slowly.
Kuzu's tight frown expanded as he screamed, "Argh!!!" He threw his hand and hit the table once again, then he raised his leg to land a powerful kick on his chair which was bandaged against his table.
The thin fragile monitor scream held on the table's edge. "Fuck!" Kuzu kicked and punched at the same time.
Crack, shatter.
The monitor fell and shattered into pieces. The leftovers of the crushed mouse bounced on the table but landed directly on the ground.
Kuzu's kick had formed a vertical cut in the wooden table, his powerful kick cracked apart the table into two.
Kuzu leaned down and placed his hands on the table's remaining sides, "Kamiya… you piece of fucking shit…" Kuzu took deep breaths to calm himself, "you should not have said all that."
After a moment of silence, Kuzu got away from the table and walked to the end of the room. He pressed a button which opened the curtains and revealed to him a beautiful scenario of tall buildings, flying ships, and the blue sky.
Instead of pulling out his cigarette, Kuzu took out his mobile and punched a number. He pulled the mobile back into his pocket. The phone ringed in his pocket but the sound vibrated in his ears.
"Yeah, Erabu, I am in a hurry actually, you know, I have to leave for clearing that dungeon," Onogi's voice was as enthusiastic as always.
Kuzu did not reply immediately. He first pulled out a slender cigarette, he held it between his teeth and tapped its end with his finger.
Smoke came from the cigarette and its end glowed bright orange with slight black ash forming around the tip's circle.
"Erabu? Are you there?"
Kuzu silently pulled his cigarette out and let the smoke blur his vision, "yes, Onogi-san."
"Oh. I am—"
"Saibai Hitori,"
"We will talk about that player later, I need to—"
"Kamiya… Jigoku." Kuzu took another smoke and blew the air out. Onogi had gone silent, "they have conquered one of your dungeons."
"..." Onogi laughed, "and what were you doing?"
"Sorry sir, unfortunately, I never thought they would attack us so early in the morning," Kuzu replied.
"Which dungeon?"
"It was just a newly conquered clone dungeon level twenty-six." Kuzu held his cigarette by his side.
"Wrong." Onogi's voice turned serious, "it was not just a newly conquered level twenty-six clone dungeon… it was MY level twenty-six clone dungeon."
"Right…" Kuzu brought his cigarette to his mouth.
"I want my dungeon back, Erabu." Kuzu stopped, "ask them to hand my dungeon before I am back,"
Onogi pulled his cigarette back and grinned widely, "I will inform them so."
"I will try my best to win tonight's battle but… with our dungeon going into their hands, it might be hard."
"I do not care about a measly battle,"
Onogi took a long pause, "And go, talk to them before I have to kill their family."
"Kamiya barely has any family left," Kuzu was about to laugh out loud, "understood, sir."
They both took a long pause before Onogi spoke, "you are not angry this time?" Kuzu chuckled.
Kuzu pulled his cigarette out, "turn on your camera, sir." Kuzu pulled his mobile out and turned on the camera.
They both shifted to a video call before Kuzu changed the camera's view. He showed Onogi the mess he had made.
Onogi stared blinding at the mess, "oh." he turned off his camera, "well… good luck."
"Good luck, Onogi-san." they hung up the call.
Kuzu walked past the alley and rested his hands on a table, "hah." Kuzu held his cigarette in between his two fingers, "Hahaha!" he broke out in a loud laugh, the one he was trying to suppress all this time.
"Kamiya! Hitori!" He shouted the two names, "my plan worked…" he banged the table and pulled an endless source of smoke into his mouth.
He banged the table once again and blew out the whole world's smoke, "you have made Onogi-san angry… and Kamiya… you fucking know Onogi-san's anger."
Kuzu extinguished his cigarette.
