Shinobi From Hell

Chapter 134 - The Beginning After The End



*Plop* *Plop*

Klautz opened his eyes, finding himself surrounded by hundreds of people.  But he was expecting this much. He looked up at the sky. It was the same blue sky and blazing yellow sun as back on earth. But the land below was completely different.

"I am finally back," Klautz whispered as he looked around.

All the trees around had dried out and stood leafless. There was a river nearby but water didn't flow in it. Instead a purple nauseating substance found their way through the channel. Air bubbles rose from the bottom as they popped as soon as they came to the surface adding to its grotesque appearance.

Hell! even the soil they were standing on had patches of purple which complemented the green moss here and there.

"So, these are the ones who have survived."

Klautz nodded.

Yes, he was surrounded by hundreds but all of them were lying flat on the ground. He was the only one who was standing dictating the fact that he was the last survivor. The others had just woken up from the effects of a strong sedative.

While Klautz was fighting the waves Satan had put them to sleep. Kept away in a dark place with no illumination they were kept unaware of the world around them till the bonus stage was officially over.

"Klautz!" Selena, who had just woken up from her sleep came running to him for a hug. Even she had got worried about his safety.

Klautz could feel her warm touch around him. Her ample breasts squished against his chest. But he could only sigh and caress the thin hands that had wrapped around him.

Little by little the others got up too as they looked around in awe and fright as to where they were. The deathly and grostoque landscape had escalated the deep fear in their hearts. 

Others who were more cool headed got up and stretched their bodies instead! Their bodies had gone stiff. After all, the ones who had not participated in the bonus stage had slept for three whole days!

"Mhmm"

But Selena snuggled against Klautz's chest, uncaring of the world around her. It was as if nothing mattered to her as long as she could be in Klautz's embrace.

On the same note, it was getting harder and harder for Klautz to resist her. For some reason he wanted to strip her naked and have her then and there. But in the end, Klautz's trained mind won out his inner desires.

'I am sure I will be getting a room soon.'

But even so Klautz patted her head as she kept snuggling with closed eyes having no care of the world. Some guys were even staring at them as they shared a romantic moment, making them somewhat drool.

It was then…

"Who are they?"

Several heavily armored strangers surrounded them from all directions. They even had their heads covered in helmets so they weren't easily identifiable. In their hands they held spears which didn't appear normal by any means. It had a white pole and a black spear head.

"Residents," Klautz whispered. 

They were a different class of people than the newbies. Well all residents of hell were newbies at some point too. They were humans who had been summoned before them and were able to settle and survive in hell.

There were around five of them and they had surrounded them from all sides. With spear in their hands along with heavy armor that even covered their faces these hells folk guards were not something you would want to mess with.

'Each of them would be as strong as myself at the moment,' Klautz concluded.

And their strength was very much justifiably needed. They were here for crowd control and to direct the newcomer summons. 

Klautz was rather an anomaly with his stats crossing sixties. Most newbies hadn't even crossed their thirties due to which these guards were just perfect for controlling hundreds of them. 

If the newbies team up maybe they might have a chance against them. But will they be able to? Especially considering the bonus stage participants had zero trust in each other.

"Welcome brothers and sisters from earth," a rather shrill voice resounded. "Welcome to Hell. Nice to meet y'all, I am Gozoto"

Gozoto, who seemed to be the leader of these hells folk, walked closer. 

Gozoto stood tall with brown skin like a warrior. He had cold blue eyes and his short curly and black hair was slicked back. 

He was the type of person who would be easily catching the crowd's eyes thanks to his flashy equipment. Klautz especially had his attention totally turned to him but not because of his appearance. It was because of his strength. His uncaring attitude didn't give off much pressure but Klautz had a hunch that…

"He is strong"

Those were the first words that Selena heard from Klautz. She was expecting some words of love but looks like the situation wasn't in her favor.

She looked at Klautz as she blinked several times, only to turn around and check what was happening.

"What the fuck is this?" A rather burly man strode forward and pulled Gozoto by his collar. "Where have you brought us? Take us back to our home."

Gozoto seemed to be the only person who seemed to know what was going on. The others were stupefied by their surroundings but Gozoto and his men were not. That is the reason why this man believed that Gozoto was the cause of their situation.

But the next moment...

Gozoto pulled him by the arm as he made him hurl in the air. The burly man fidgeted trying to break free. He felt as if his arm would come off.

"Ugh, free me," he grunted in pain. He hadn't expected such an outcome. He had fought ferocious monsters back at the newbie zone and yet survived. So why was he powerless against but a simple man?

Indeed Gozoto was more monstrous than those monsters.
