"The next team is: Akira, Yukihime, Asuna," said the Test Admin, who was allowing the teams to enter one by one to undergo the third test.
"It seems it's our turn," said Akira as he walked with Yukihime and Asuna towards the door leading to the test.
"..." - As they walked, Asuna blushed as she glanced between Akira and Yukihime. When they returned, they had told her what they had done, something that was normal for them as vampires, and they didn't feel ashamed of sharing it, even though they didn't like others watching them while doing it.
Akira and Yukihime didn't care about Asuna's embarrassment since this was something they couldn't feel due to the differing moral standards between humans and vampires. Although Akira maintained his human standards most of the time, his instincts as a vampire gradually erased the embarrassment stemming from human standards.
The three walked and arrived at a black empty space, where a man was sipping a drink in the center.
"Welcome, I am the Test Director, and my name is Yu Han. I will be in charge of this test," Yu Han said as he sipped instant coffee indifferently. "The test is simple: you must open the correct door."
Although others would have been surprised by the Test Director supervising such a test, Yukihime and Asuna didn't know the importance of the Test Director, and as for Akira, he didn't care about the Test Director.
To Akira, titles like Test Director and Test Admin didn't matter; they were no different from air to him. Once the mission was over, he would return to his world, and even if he came back to this world, he wouldn't see them again as he continued to climb the tower, while they remained here.
Of course, this didn't mean that Akira didn't care about anyone. If he made friends here, he wouldn't be indifferent to them as he was to strangers and passersby in his life.
After Yu Han spoke, 12 red doors appeared out of nowhere and began rotating around the room before stopping.
"You only have one attempt," Yu Han said, taking another sip of instant coffee as he glanced at Akira and the others from the corner of his eye. "And the time limit is ten minutes."
"Hmm, it seems we have some time. So, what do you think about chatting for a bit?" Akira said, sitting casually in front of Yu Han.
"Chatting? You seem quite confident to ignore the test and chat with someone you've met for the first time," Yu Han smiled, putting the cup aside as he gazed at Akira. "So, what do you want to talk about, Irregular Nifuji Akira?"
"I see... that metallic rabbit told you about me," Akira said, a smile creeping onto his lips. "Then this will make things easier. I'll help you get that boy Baam, but in return, you must not stand in our way."
Akira knew that Yu Han and his group saw them as obstacles to their plans and would try to get rid of them as soon as possible. Although Akira was confident in his ability to defeat them no matter what they did, he didn't want to deal with too much trouble.
"It seems, as Headon-sama said, that despite being from outside the tower, you know more about it than most of its residents," Yu Han said, gazing at Akira seriously, knowing that the person before him was a significant threat to their plans.
"Don't look at me like that," Akira said coldly, staring at Yu Han with emotionless eyes. Hundreds of ripples appeared around him, and he would have killed Yu Han without hesitation if he tried to mess with him. "As I said, I have no intention of standing against you, and I even offered my help. But it seems you want to make me your enemy."
T_T – Yu Han stared at Akira, unable to stop the urge to cry. Akira's killing intent sent shivers down his spine. He, who had climbed the tower and witnessed much bloodshed in his long life, couldn't help but tremble under the terrifying killing intent emitted by the golden-haired youth in front of him.
"Please calm down..." Yu Han quickly regained his composure and leaned toward Akira. "I apologize for my earlier rudeness, and I hope you'll accept my previous offer of cooperation. We won't stand in your way, and we'll help you pass the tests as much as we can in exchange for your help in acquiring Baam and not interfering with our plans."
"It seems we've reached an agreement," Akira said nonchalantly, as the killing intent and ripples disappeared. He stood up from in front of Yu Han and walked towards the nearest door. "So, we'll be going now."
"..." - The two girls stared at Yu Han for a moment. He was trying to keep a composed look, but he was sweating all over from the fear of Akira.
Well, it wasn't just Yu Han who was frightened by Akira's killing intent. Yukihime and Asuna were both shocked by the terrifying killing aura Akira had unleashed.
"What are you doing? Let's go," Akira smiled as he looked at the two girls standing still.
"..." - Asuna and Yukihime looked at Akira's smile, then glanced at each other before smiling and following Akira, who had opened the nearest door.
"What a terrifying monster," Yu Han murmured after Akira left, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"As Headon-sama said, it's best not to provoke him," Yu Han muttered, quickly regaining his mental state and returning to his usual demeanor. "Next team of participants, please come forward."
