Shinobi From Hell

"Excuse me."

Two women and five men.

From the group, the man who was standing in front of them spoke.

'A group has already been made.'

It was an action worth applauding. The man instinctively knew they had to stick together to live and wanted him to join them.

"You seemed quite calm. Are you experienced?" the man said.

Standing 5' 5" tall, and solidly-built with brown skin, this man has a responsive feel about him.

He has tired deep purple eyes and his mid-back length, thick, black hair is worn in a pompadour.

"What if I am?" Klautz replied unfazed by the situation

"Of course! Ah, my name is Bill Ritter. And your name is?" Bill said extending his hands

Bill Ritter.

I knew I saw him somewhere. He was second in the previous ranking.

Looking at the sharp longsword he was holding, he probably chose it as a reward this round.

"Are you referring to me?"

"Yes, as there is no one in front of me beside you."

Bill Ritter impudently laughed.

But, Klautz didn't feel like getting involved with them.

So he replied briefly.

"Shiny... Shiny Shirogane" Klautz blurted out a weird name that didn't go well with his appearance.

Bill's expression stiffened.

Bill would probably think that he was being played around with.

However, even though he wasn't going to treat him seriously, Klautz thought about the word continuously before telling him.

In the past, Klautz killed countless people.

From the people that he killed, there were soldiers and people who could have been recognized as heroes. For example, the Miki Shirogane whose feats were known far and wide, and Queen of Frost Wind, Nuha Bukov, and so forth.

If those people were to be alive today, then humanity would not have been destroyed that easily.

'They should still be alive.'

Indeed he has traveled back in the past.

'They were few of the toughest opponents I had to kill.'

Especially Miki Shirogane was his greatest kill. Throughout his lifetime he had idolized Shirogane over everything else. She was his greatest idol, the most worthy of the title of hero unlike himself who only weakened humanity. At some point in time, he did want to be like her. However, his opinion changed the day Shirogane died, died at his own hands. That day he realized that even legendary figures have flaws. Flaws that the public don't know. He still idolized Shirogane. But did he want to become like her now? No, he didn't. He didn't want to meet the same fate as her. Betrayed by her colleagues burning in jealousy. He would rather be the same old shinobi rather than trust some fools only to be betrayed later.

He still remembers vividly the day he had killed her. The regret that engulfed him after, And the resolve he had made later.

It took him three years of sneaking and hiding to kill her.

The magical knight was one of the strongest hero among the Heroes, with great perception. He was one of the top 10 human beings living in Hellfeim. Therefore, even 3 years is considered quite short against someone like her.

Killing her was the last assignment he had done as a Shinobi after which he went on a killing spree massacring his village folks, the ninjas of Kishiokagure.

Anyhow, he will not deny the things he has done in the past, but he now has the chance to redo what he has done.

Since he now has the chance, Klautz decided to live a more meaningful life this time.

"ShinyShirogane... Then what is your last name? Lee ShinyShirogane? Abdel ShinyShirogane?"

'Is he saying that to crack a joke with me?'

Klautz turned away. But before that, he glanced someone at in the corner of his eyes. He found the man who was using gauntlets to jump in the air out of excitement. He was the first to take action among the newbies. He had changed into a new pair of gauntlets which he must have won as a prize.

'Steve Larrison, that must be him.'

Unlike Bill here he didn't form a group for his survival. Confidence or idiocy? Only time will tell. As Klautz himself wasn't interested in being in a group.

Being in a group facilitates better survival sure. But it leads to fewer spoils and the person getting dependent on his teammates. This was okay in normal circumstances but in a place like Hellfeim betrayal from your teammates would lead to nothing but death.

Klautz has, and every ninja in Kishiokagure has always gone on missions alone. For if he fails he needs to bury his failure with his death. Special techniques were taught in Kishiokagure so that the ninja could take suitable measures so that their bodies disappear from the face of the planet after their death. For, after all, leaving behind their carcass was akin to leaving behind an open book of confidential information.

These methods include burning oneself alive. Digging one's own grave and whatnot.

However the day Klautz died he forsake those teaching and decided to die by normal means. He wanted the people who find his dead body to know that at least at the end of his life he had done a noble deed. He had wiped the Kishiokagure village from the face of Hellfeim.

"My last name is Shirogane. The first name is Shiny." Klautz relied nonchalantly upon.

Anyone who sees them would know that he was ignoring him.

"Haha! You're funny."

However, Bill laughed.

Klautz was now admiring him in his own way.

'This dude. He will survive quite a while.'
