Chapter 178 Chapter 178 - Error
Then, Aiden's eyes once again closed and opened.
'What just happened? Everything blacked out for five minutes,' thought Aiden as he looked downward toward Lucius.
"Woah, what happened to you?" uttered Aiden as he glanced at the dead body that was right below him.
Aiden observed that body and noticed that Lucius's wrists had been crushed, he had several hits in his stomach which could be seen because of how red some spots were on his body.
'Did I do that?' thought Aiden, unsure what to think right now.
'Was it because of my emotions again? Did they take over my body again?' thought Aiden.
However, he couldn't help but find all of this really weird, why had he felt that he had been kicked out of this body?
Why hadn't he felt anything for a complete five minutes, just what could that reason be?
Aiden didn't know, but he would do his best to figure it out as soon as possible.
Then, he heard a small gasp from the dead body, well presumed dead body.
*Gasp*
The body seemed to come back to life as Aiden observed it with interest.
"Lucius? Is that you?" asked Aiden, unsure if the real owner of the body had taken over.
However, the only response that he got was small breathing noises. It seemed that in his current conditions, Lucius or whoever was in control of this body, couldn't answer Aiden.
'Well, I guess it doesn't matter if they can speak or not,' thought Aiden, as he remembered his task here.
And he remembered it clearly, all he had needed to do was to win the war against the Plum Blossom Sect, and he guessed that killing the Patriarch would be a pretty good start to doing that.
Then, remembering that fact Aiden approached the half-dead body that was in front of him as he got out his dagger and literally slashed the head of the body in front of him.
*BEEP*
[You have killed an Awakened Being impersonating someone.]
[You have levelled up.]
[You have levelled up.]
[You have levelled up.]
[You have levelled up.]
However, that wasn't the end of all those notifications as the beeping sound once again resounded in his mind.
But, this time it was a lot more aggressive as if Aiden had done something wrong.
*BEEEEEP*
[Error!]
[Error!]
[User has killed the Boss Monster before completion of the Trial Objective.]
[The system is calculating the rewards for such an action.]
[Calculated... the added rewards will be given in case of the <Trial Objective> being completed.]
Aiden started reading from the top of all those messages as he clearly saw that his message wasn't the usual one.
'I guess it really was Lucius inside that body,' thought Aiden, as he was now sure that he had eliminated Lucius.
'Wait, that means I'm pretty much assured of winning this tournament,' thought Aiden as he continued reading all those messages.
Then, he finally arrived at the error messages that he had gotten not long ago.
"Not again, what did I do wrong this time," uttered Aiden, as he could already tell that it would be something negative, no error was positive.
That was just how life was in general.
Then, he continued reading all the messages in front of him, already expecting the worst possible scenario.
"Wait, no way," mumbled Aiden, realizing that it didn't look like. a negative thing at all.
"Would I really get more rewards because I killed the boss monster of the trial before completing the <Trial Objective>?"
"Wait, Lucius was the boss monster?"
"Well, I guess it kind of makes sense, as he was pretty much the most important figure in the trial."
His thought process made sense as if Lucius was impersonating the one who could have the most impact in the war which was still ongoing outside of this massive house or room, Aiden didn't even know to be enough.
Since the very first trial, Aiden had noticed that Boss Monsters weren't always the strongest beings in the trial, but the ones who would have the most impact inside it.
"So, I guess this trial is pretty much done," muttered Aiden, as he headed toward the exit slowly as he knew that this whole trial was already over.
"Oh, before I go," said Aiden, as he went back to the dead body picking up the head which was on the ground.
'That should be enough to make all of them panic and lose all hope,' thought Aiden, as he slowly walked toward the exit once again.
He knew that he could take his time as he would probably be able to win even if every one of his sect members would have died.
Having this head with him, Aiden knew that the rest of this trial would be a walk in the park.
Then, he got out of the building and started flying right away as he concentrated his Qi toward his feet which made him go up in the air without any problem.
"I guess I'll just go toward the noise," said Aiden as he could faintly hear the sounds of swords clashing not that far away from him.
Not losing any time, he started flying in that direction without rushing.
Then, he started to look down, scanning his there was anyone under him as he didn't want to miss an enemy.
He wasn't sure if he needed to kill everyone that was part of the Plum Blossom Sect to complete the Trial Objective, but well... Aiden wouldn't take any chances, he would eliminate them all if that was what it took.
"Oh, there's somebody," mumbled Aiden as he descended from the sky at a ridiculous slashing of the neck of his target without him even realizing it.
[You have killed a cultivator.]
[You have levelled up.]
'A level up only from one kill, wait... this place... this place is perfect,' thought Aiden as he could already imagine himself farming all the experience that he could out of this place.
Now having motivation, he immediately went up in the air again in search of his next experience points, um... targets, yes, targets.
