100 Bitter Truth (2/2)
The defence shield attached to the clothes of the soldiers would provide a shield, helping them to avoid a hit. Giving them a chance to get into a cover after they teleport.
In Faust's case, there is no defence, making him the most vulnerable. The spawn point, where Faust and the other teleported are noted to the opposite team. It takes just one shot for a sniper to eliminate Faust from match right after he is teleported into the match.
”Let me go one more match.” Faust asks for a rematch, gets the permission and all four of them are teleported again.
”Faust is eliminated!”
Within ten seconds. Faust is again hit by the sniper gain and teleported back to the room with Thorik me Tsumugi.
”It is hopeless. A captain should lead his squad from the front and stand his ground protecting them.” Thorik says as he moves onto monitor the rest.
Faust just stands there in doubt, he doesn't know what to do or how to counter anymore. This is the first time Tsumugi saw Faust cowering without a plan or without displaying his confidence. But she knew this would happen so she did not say anything. She knew from the start that only three members from her house needs to win the first round someway.
Faust did not take the match again, he went back to his room while the other trained the whole day.
”This is a huge blow for the family, they have to fight with only three people and try to win.” Yuiki's squad empathises with Tsumugi's family.
Faust doesn't go out of his bed the whole day, Jonathan tries to bring him out of the cabin but fails to do so.
”Fausty! Don't worry, I can take down two members, Jonathan and Rachel can take care of the other two. We will win a match in the first round for real and then you can win the second round which is 1 Vs 1 and then our family will survive.” Fab assures Faust, Jonathan and Rachel too add their voices of support, saying they too will work their best to win.
This only made Faust feel more humiliated that the people whom he's supposed to protect are now making up for his lack of strength.
Faust did not go to the training ground for the rest of the month. It's only Fab, Jonathan and Rachel with their new equipment, have played 53 matches against Yuki's squad and won 0 matches.
Meanwhile, Faust only did his morning workouts, routines and spent the rest of the day in his house.
The Purge that has terrified the branches of the families for the past two months have arrived finally. The very first match is arranged between Tsumugi and Carlos. The matching did seem political to both the houses. But they cannot oppose anything rather than follow the house rules.
While every other team is preparing for battle on the morning of the purge, no one has sensed the dawn of the birth of a new demon that is about to enter the urge with them.
Faust calls his squad for a discussion on the morning of the day of Purge. Fab, Jonathan and Rachel are just gawking at Faust while listening to his strategies.
”Let's win this whole round.” Faust uttered with a devilish smile, the black stone on his armlet is gleaming brightly and his left eyeball is completely black, as the eye of a devil.
