Warlock of War: My Ares System

Chapter 80 Teacher Quest: Simo Hahya (5)



Then, all of a sudden, the whizzing of a bullet could be heard flying past us.

A spray of blood coated my face in the fresh scent of metal, and the small drops that entered my mouth tasted horrible.

It was metallic, just like the smell, and before I could even spit out the few drops, the rapid-fire of an assault rifle sounded off in the distance.

"GET TO THE FUCKING GROUND!" One of the men shouted, and we all dropped to the snow before slowly maneuvering our way back behind our tents.

What happened? We're we being trailed? No, that shouldn't be possible, we set up the boobie traps, and they should've been able to warn us in case they came…

A traitor? No, that can't be possible…

Thousands of questions flooded my mind as bullets whizzed past me, and it didn't even feel real until one slammed me in my shoulder, completely shattering the bone and destroying the tendon.

It felt as if my shoulder was on fire.

The pain made my mind go blank for a few seconds, but thankfully one of the men who were still alive dragged me behind a tree that wasn't about to last long.

"Huff… Huff… Huff… Geez… I'm really gonna die like this," I muttered, but the man beside me looked determined to continue to protect me.

"Don't say that. We're gonna live. Or, I at least want you to live since you still have so much more to look forward to in life,"

You're just a person created by this system… a person from the past that was brought from my future… so leave me.

I tried to open my mouth to mutter the last words lingering in my mind, but everything felt numb, and the world went cold.

A familiar feeling phased through my body as my breathing slowed down, and a flurry of snow appeared in my vision.

It wasn't there before, and it just looked as if it appeared out of thin air.

It was also falling way too slowly for it to actually be real snow that follows real physics… and strangely, my numb body responded to my will.

I still couldn't feel much or none of my body, but my body still moved according to my will.

Everything was slow… so very slow, and everything was coated in a greyish tinge that made everything so depressing… so very depressing.

"I see… So this is the snow underworld," I muttered to myself as I breathed through my teeth and shoved the man's head beside me, downward, allowing him to dodge a flurry of bullets as the tree shielding us cracked in half.

All that was left was the stump, but that was more than enough for me to make use of as I gave him a hand signal which told him to stay low and seeing the shift in my eyes, he felt as if he could trust me.

Slowly… so very slowly, I ran out from under the tree stump, and the line of bullets predicted my path, so I just ducked… so very slowly.

They readjusted to my duck, but I then slid behind another tree before peaking out the other side and spraying a few of them with a submachine gun I picked off the ground.

It was one of my dead comrade's weapons, so I made sure to keep it pristine and not let even an ounce of blood drop onto it.

But that's easier said than done as my right shoulder was completely busted and hanging by a thread, most likely meaning I'll die of blood loss if I don't finish this quickly.

This extreme blood loss made my find foggy, and the excruciating pain came in slow waves of pain… and they were so very slow.

Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta…

My submachine gun fired slowly… so very slowly, and I thought that I was going to end up missing all of my bullets as I was holding it in my left hand, but surprisingly, I hit a few just before ducking out of the way.

I heard their footsteps slowly close in… so very slowly, and it felt as if all their eyes were aimed at me… meaning we won.

"It's sweet to view the sea when standing on the shoreline," I muttered as I smiled at the checkmate occurring behind the tree.

Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta… Ta…

Another elongated and slow spray of firing weapons appeared behind the tree, and when I turned, I saw everybody who was still alive, fighting back at the large group coming straight for our injured assess.

Nobody was unharmed, but they still continued to fight, some with tears in their eyes, some with angered expressions, and one man with cold eyes that saw the same world as me.

I smiled, awaiting the sweet joy of victory, but all of a sudden, my lungs felt as if they had burst into flames, and my eyes began to bleed.

The world around me quickly resumed to normal speed, but it felt faster than normal due to the slowed-down world I had just witnessed.

"Ack… *gasp*... Ack… Ack…"

I tried to breathe, but little to no air seemingly came into my lungs.

Blood-filled tears dripped down my face as I let out a silent cry of agony, just before being met with a pair of eyes that were colder than ice.

BAM

He smashed my chest once with as much force as possible, then grabbed onto it and began to squeeze it quickly.

He let go, then squeezed it. Let go, then squeeze it.

He repeated this process at least thirty times before falling back onto the pillowy snow as I suddenly gasped for air as if I had just resurfaced from the bottom of the ocean.

"*cough* *cough* *cough* *cough* *cough*... *gasp*..."

"Easy boy, just breathe,"
