At the end of September, Saturday afternoon, after school .
In a forest about 5 min away from the road linking the High School Section and the Middle School Section, I was holding a shovel, covered with mud, trying to make a trap .
The depth of this hole is far deeper than a person’s height .
This is already the third trap that I have dug, hence it is quite easy . If you also count the already dug and filled traps, this is already the 5th one . After digging so many, more or less you will become skilled at it .
When I feel that it is almost there, I stabbed the spears I prepared in advance into the trap . That is the bamboo after I cut, and sharpened into a simple spear . I placed the tip upwards, and stabbed it into the hole . One after another . Rigidly, one after another .
I pulled at a rope that is tied to a nearby tree, and climbed out of the hole, then carefully covered the trap with leaves, as a disguise .
I have to be faster, there is not much time .
That fellow is coming .
I wiped the sweat from my forehead . Now it is 2 . 30pm .
For that fellow, I even left clues . I left a message, to guide that fellow to this place .
I am guessing, that fellow probably won’t notice that that is a 「message」 . He probably will think that that is a mistake that I have accidentally made, and he is thinking that I am hiding something important here .
And because of that important thing, that is the reason why I came to this place everyday—— he will probably think like that .
He must have thought, that recently I disappeared as soon as school ended, is because I came here .
From a certain viewpoint, that sort of thinking is not wrong . Because I have been digging traps here .
The first trap, because I feel unsatisfied about it, hence I buried it .
The second trap, though it is passable, but I hoped that it can be more comprehensive, hence I also buried it . Because the thing that I am about to do is not allowed to fail .
I am about to kill someone .
I will let that fellow drop into this trap, and kill him .
Just by dropping on the bamboo spear might not be able to kill, hence I had hidden a few plastic containers under a nearby tree, and they are filled with gasoline .
I intend to wait for the guy to drop into the trap, and then pour in the gasoline from above, before throwing in a torch .
If that fellow is really lucky, or perhaps it is not enough for him to die .
Hence I prepared a bamboo spear that is over 5 meter long . I cut the bamboo diagonally, then pared the cutting to make it very sharp, I will use this bamboo spear and stab him from above . Without stopping, until he is no longer moving .
Like this everything will end, and the revenge ends here .
Then what do I do? I don’t really care about that much .
If this continues, I will definitely be killed by that guy one day .
I will be bullied by him until I die, and I will also be obliterated in the society .
That fellow is very powerful, and of course his wrist power is very strong, but there is not only that .
That fellow’s parents are the influential people who funded the school .
It sounds like the plot in manga, but that is really the case in reality .
What this student have done, not even the school teachers dare to voice out against him . Such a person really exist in our school .
And I am targeted by this kind of lousy person .
This school adopts the system of having the entire school in dormitories, and the school itself is situated in the mountains .
This is a closed village society, and the head of the village has his eyes on me .
That fellow is bullying me to increase the value in his life .
One of these days I will be bullied to death .
Since it will be so, I can only kill him before getting killed, isn’t it?
I held my breath and waited patiently .
I don’t know if it was because I am suspicious, but the usual noisy cries of the birds, insects, there is none of it today . The forest was in a state of silence .
Soon, that fellow is coming soon .
I heard footsteps .
That is the sound of someone stepping on dead leaves, that is the sound of the footsteps of that fellow coming over .
I am very nervous, and lightly held down my trembling hand . My sweat rolled down my cheeks .
Though it is already at the end of September, but the mountain should not be this hot . I don’t know if it is because I did some exercise just now, but I am sweating all over, and even now I am still sweating .
No, it should be because I am nervous .
But that also cannot be helped . Of course I am nervous, after all I am about to kill someone, and my hands and legs are all shaking . Once I think about it, I could not resist —— revealing a crafty smile .
I can kill that fellow . Just by thinking about that, I am happy enough to cry out .
Because that fellow——
Suddenly, my body shook . I quickly placed my hands on the fallen leaves .
When I realized it, I began to worry if just now that sound has been heard by that fellow?
No, this is——
The tree I am leaning on is vibrating . Only seeing the tree branches, and leaves shaking .
It is an earthquake . And it is very big .
There was a shock wave that echoed from my belly area . That was the greatest shaking, but after that it stopped . (TL note: Don’t ask me why there is a shock wave from his abdomen . . I am guessing it cuz of the tree is vibrating and he is leaning on it . )
The shaking stopped . It seems that no trees fell, nor will there be any mudslides . I breathed a sigh of relief .
The trap is fine too, that is great . But there is a problem .
「It’s an earthquake!」
I heard that fellow’s voice, and the sound of smacking lips . (TL note: smacking lips = sound of someone clicking his tongue, you know the one you go tsu!)
It isn’t good—— I couldn’t help but think .
If that fellow changed his mind, then the things that I have prepared won’t they——
The sound of the footsteps indeed gradually went away .
The one who should smack the lips is me . I bit my lips, and clenched my fists .
No, it is not over yet .
That fellow maybe just worried that a landslide may happen or something .
Maybe he will be back in a while .
I silently prayed and waited patiently .
I don’t know how many minutes have passed .
I felt that it has been a long time, but it is probably about only 10 mins or so .
The sounds of footsteps began to approach again .
That’s great, I clenched my fist tightly, wanting to put out a victory pose .
That fellow came back . This time he should walk past here .
The footsteps got closer . What’s going on? The sound of the footsteps seems to be heavier than before .
I think, that is probably me thinking too much . I shook my head, and focused .
I get this feeling that even the breathing of that fellow has become very loud . The [Fuuhi . Fuuhi] when exhaling is just like a pig .
What exactly is going on, is that fellow tired?
What a useless guy . Seemingly so arrogant usually, but in the end he is only this much .
I smiled sinisterly . Just like this is good .
If he is already tired, then his attention is bound to become weaker .
His footsteps should also become more messy .
Just watch .
And fall .
A shrill scream sounded .
I rushed out from behind the tree trunk, and carried the plastic containers while dashing towards the trap . Without even looking at the situation inside the trap, I poured the liquid in the containers in .
The gasoline flowed into the trap with a doshi doshi sound . It continue to flow, making someone feel that it is kind of exaggerated .
Next is the spark . I used the lighter to light a piece of confetti, and throw it into the trap .
The scream echoed in to the ears .
It is that last struggle of the guy, it make one feel so smoothing .
I picked up the bamboo spear and stabbed it into the trap, giving that fellow the fatal blow .
The feel of the spear stabbing into the meat was transmitted through the palms . So a human’s stomach is that soft, it is far beyond my imagination .
I closed my eyes, and desperately stabbed the bamboo spear continuously down .
Finally, the resistance stopped .
I timidly opened my eyes, and looked into the trap .
That fellow’s corpse——
Is not in the trap .
What replaced it, is a fat creature that is pig-like looking, and uses 2 legs to walk, covered with blood and dead inside .
That is a fat creature with reddish-brown skin .
And the blood that flowed out is blue . Only seeing him covered completely in blue colored blood .
「Ha?」
I could not help making a confused sound like a fool .
I let go of the bamboo spear in my hands .
At that moment the fat pig-human released another sound like a wheezing sound .
The pig-human body is gradually becoming fuzzy . No, its body is dissipating just like smoke .
I blinked .
Just as I was stunned at all these, the pig-human’s body disappeared completely .
A opening trumpet music rang in my ears .
「You leveled up!」
I heard a neutral voice saying so, and my vision became all white .
