31 Chapter 31

"What to do? What to do? Am I going to stay here forever? No, please. No." Quickstep thought of ways to break free from this prison. He was afraid because he could not see anything but the empty walls of this box he was in. It was suffocating.

"Why the late reports?" Quickstep asked the system.

"Your death caused the system to lag, host." The system answered Quickstep.

"Okay. Wait. That's it! Hahaha! I got it! It's great to be a genius! I'm a prodigy! Hehehe!" Quickstep laughed aloud as he has gotten an idea on how to escape this cage.

"How many shop points do I get if I sell those weapons?" Quickstep asked the system. He hated those weapons. It was what had killed him. Quickstep was not comfortable having them near him. It was a also a form of revenge for him to be able to dispose of them.

"You can sell them for 250,000 shop points, host." The system replied to Quickstep.

"Hahaha! If you add my remaining shop point balance, I would have a million shop points, right?" Quickstep was thrilled by what those numbers mean.

"Negative, host. You will only have a total shop point of 343,500." The shop responded to Quickstep.

"Bouncing balls! Are you sure?!" Quickstep was furious. He was certain that he had added the numbers correctly.

"Affirmative, host." The system answered Quickstep.

"Are you not cheating me for my shop points?" Quickstep asked again to the system.

"Negative, host." The system replied to Quickstep.

"How can that be? Is my calculation wrong? Maybe I should practice counting later. The clan's riddle would make me more good at this. Hahaha! I have decided. I will solve that mysterious riddle after I finish my quest for justice and be done with it, once and for all." Quickstep thought as he made plans for the future.

"Show me the Tier S Mythical Existences." Quickstep instructed the system. He was tired of being trapped here already. It was time to go out.

"Or maybe I should stay here. Hmmm. It's quiet and no one can hurt me here. And all those humans outside seems to hate me so much. To hide here, away from all pain will be…

No! I will seek vengeance on those who had stolen from me! Those thieves and murderers shall have their reckoning in my hands! I need to be strong for my family! For my clan! How can I face my ancestors if I waste my life cowering in this hole?

I am Quickstep, the last ant of the Littletoes Clan, and I will not shame the Banner of the Ant Race! To war!" Quickstep thought as he made peace with his decision. He will fight to the end. For even if he falls, no one could say that the last ant of the Littletoes Clan, died a coward.

"Affirmative, host." The system said in response.
