Chapter 8
Chapter 8: Apex
Night had already fallen by the time Cain woke up. He felt dizzy as he stood up and cleaned the dust out of his body. When he felt the blood in his clothes, his eyes widened, and he remembered all the things that had happened.
Cain was confused as he saw how there were no wounds left on his body, but the corpse next to his feet pushed away that concern.
‘Yes, I killed him.’ The youth began to tremble as he remembered that he was a killer now, but there was something else that happened before he passed out.
‘Was that voice an illusion?’
“Not illusion at all, brat.”
Cain almost jumped when he heard that voice. It was a male’s voice, and although it sounded young, he could swear he felt a sense of ancientness in it.
Like the A.I. Chip’s voice, while it sounded like a voice reaching his ears, only Cain could hear it since it originated inside his mind.
.....
Cain opened his mouth and was about to speak, but he stopped at the last minute. A meaningful light appeared in his eyes, and he remained silent.
