Re Zero The Choice Of Zero

I am about to cry. I just hope that I will be able to survive this.

As Arnold was running away, 2 pairs of eyes stalked him in the darkness.

"What should we do?" asked the little girl.

"Let´s go and catch him. I need to ask him a few questions." She said as they both disappeared from their spots.

"That guy is insane! What kind of power was that?!! Unknown? Don't f.u.c.k with me!! Ugh." Arnold wasn't paying attention at where he was going and he stumbled and fell on the ground.

"Ah.. Poor guy.. He fell hehe"

"Now now.. Don't tease him Mei. I need answers before we cut him open."

Arnold backed away in fear. "W-What do you want from me!?"

Elsa shook her head and said. "I already said that. Are you dumb? I want answers, let's start with whether the item is real or not." Elsa took out her dagger and placed it on his neck.

"Tch. You will kill me anyway."

"Hmm. You still have a chance. If you tell us everything, you might survive."

Arnold pondered for a while, then raised his hands up in the air and quietly surrendered. "Alright, I will tell you everything.".

"Good boy. Now, is the item real?" asked Mei.

"Yes. It's a national treasure, and currently Crusch Karsten holds it. It has the ability to hide everything. From people to items."

Elsa and Mei looked at each other and smiled. "That's good"

Elsa put away her dagger and asked. "So, why did you run away like a sore loser?

Arnold shivered and stayed silent.

Elsa brought her head closer to him.

"Hello? Earth to merchant, can you hear me?" asked Elsa.

"It's a monster." Replied Arnold.

"Hm?"

"That guy that came with them, is more dangerous than any person or beast."

"Oh. You mean Nero. I know that for a fact haha."

Arnold was startled for a second and asked. "Do you know that guy!?"

Elsa replied with. "I've died to him once. He was really strong."

What? Died?

Arnold slowly whispered. "Info.."

She grew up with monsters. She wants to find an ideal partner for her, but as she is trapped in the body of a small child, she wasn't able to get a boyfriend yet.

How many monsters had gathered here? Another person that can come from death?!

"You are a monster as well, but not as much as that guy."

Elsa looked offended and said. "What are you talking about, when we fought we were almost even, but he caught me off guard and I got killed by one of his skills. After that, I had to run because Reinhard and others showed up and I was at disadvantage. I admit he is stronger than me, but we aren't that far away in terms of strength

"No No No. You haven't seen it, I did. My eye saw through his power. He was definitely holding back when he was fighting with you! The difference between the two of you is like heaven and earth."

"What do you mean?"

"You see.. I have a gift, that allows me to see someone's numerical value. I can see his weaknesses, abilities and how much power he has. Then there are things like levels. I am not really sure what they represent, but if I had to guess, with each level your power grows stronger by a certain margin."

"Hoh. So what level are we?" asked Mei.

"You are level 17 and your power is 120, but your magic power is 9000. So you are considered really strong with your magic. Even though you are low level. And you, you are really weird. Your level is 52, but your power is split to 3 parts."

"Ara. So complicated. I am listening" said Elsa with a smile.

"You have a power of 2000, there is also some kind of berserk power. That's 4800 and there is another kind of power. It's called an assassination power. It's 50000 most of the time instant.

Elsa's gaze turned cold. "Ara Ara. That thing sure is dangerous. To have all of my secrets exposed like that."

His Gift is valuable for our guild. So, even if I don't retrieve the item, we still get something.

"Alright, now. If I am level 52, then he has to be about 60 right?"

"He...He is level 489, his power was unknown." sighed Arnold.

""That high?!"" both of the girls looked shocked.

"I've never seen a level higher than 300. The highest level I've seen was the imperial sage that lived for 400 years. He was level 294. That's why I am saying that he is dangerous and also.. He is associated with the Witch of Envy."

""What?!""

The great tragedy. Caused by the Satella, the witch of Envy is unforgettable.

People feared the unknown power that consumed half of the world. After an endless battle, Satella was sealed and the peace was partly restored to the dying world. However. Now, it looks like she had someone, that shares some kind of connection with her. And his motives are unclear.

"Nero is a lot more mysterious than I thought." replied Elsa.

Mei went forward and grabbed him by his neck. "Anyway. You are coming with us to the assassins guild."

Arnold sighed in relief and said. "You are really not killing me?"

Elsa looked at him and mysteriously smiled.

If only you knew what kind of place our guild is. You would rather want death.

He better hope that they won't experiment on him or worse. They might even take his eye out.
