Shang hated the cheering more than anything right now.

Shang had been put before a choice.

Either kill the Adept and gain more rewards or leave with his current rewards.

Shang could kill his enemies.

He could kill people that wanted to hurt him.

Hell, he could even kill people that wanted to steal from him.

But the Adept had done nothing.

She had only run away from the very beginning.

In the end, Shang had decided that his power was more important than the life of someone innocent.

Yet, he still regretted it.

Why had the God put him before such a choice?

Was this all only for entertainment?

At that moment, the wheel returned.

"Level five: Average Early Adept."

Shang looked at the wheel as it began to spin.

'Of course it's only a game to him.'

'He already told me that this entire world only exists to entertain him.'

'The purpose of everyone's existence in this world is to entertain him.'

'That's it.'

'That's all there is to it.'

The wheel slowed down.

Shang clenched his fists.

Shang had been ambivalent towards the God until now. If he wanted to play with lives, that was his thing.

But now, Shang had felt how it was to be his toy.

At that moment, the night with the bandits shot through Shang's mind.

Shang remembered what he had thought back then.

"Not killing everyone made the death of the ones I killed meaningless."

This was what he had repeatedly said to himself.

What about the Adept?

What about all the other warriors and Mages that had appeared in this trial?
