Chapter 12 - Chapter 12: Theatre dungeon [5]

The fourth day Ken after Ken entered the movie. As he was walking down an alley after the gym closed.

"Arghh!"

He heard someone screaming. But there was no one around there.

When he headed towards where the sound was coming from and took a peek. He saw something horrifying.

A woman–laying on the ground, while a person–who just happened to look like a clown was standing there with a knife.

The woman was still breathing–alive, still asking for mercy.

Instead of any normal reaction, which is not expected at all–the clown was giggling like a madman.

As he started to peirce the woman's skin with multiple needles while she is still alive.

Seeing all these, Ken hurriedly walked towards his house. Still trying to make sense of what he just saw.

"What the fuck just happened?! A clown was just killing a person! Fuck! Fuck! Fuck! Does that mean the hunt is that I will be the one hunted by the clown?!"

As he was panicking, suddenly he remembered a detail about the clown.

"Black… and white clothing… there is only one movie that I remember something like this was in… Terrifier."

As he came to this realization, his panic just increased more, as a system notification came at the same time.

[You have successfully found out what the movie is about. You have been rewarded 100 coins for your discovery.]

[You will have to survive the night of the hunt from Art the clown, tier 6 immortal species to clear the movie.]

[3 days left for the hunt.]

"Im… just so damn fucked."

—***—

As Ken was walking down the street, he stopped by an ATM booth. 

Not long after coming here, I realized that the guy named Jaden I'm right now… is filthy rich! 

As he puts his card and gives the number and amount of money withdrawn. 20 thousand worth of cash comes out.

"Heh. So this is what it feels like to be rich."

As he walks out of the booth and strides towards a peculiar store.

After entering it, he looks around for a while and picks up a gun.

"How much would this Glock 47 be?"

As the shopkeeper looks at him for a while and asks. "First of all, do you have a licen–"

Before he could finish his words. Ken drops the 20 thousand dollar on the desk and says. "Give me 100 rounds of magazines with it. Oh, also give me the best type of silencer you got. And by the way, remove the camera footage too."

After staying quiet for a few seconds the owner hands over the gun and bullets without any complaint.

Ken comes out of the store, the gun and bullets inside his bag.

"Being rich really can get you anything. There is that thing like. If money can't buy you happiness, then you are just not using it enough… pffftt, hahahaha. It really is true."

He reaches his house back. When he enters it, every inch of the house is covered with multi-layered sound proofing pads.

Then he sits down on the sofa and takes his phone out and starts to order some things.

"There was the chainsaw, the steel wire that is impossible to rip off, even for me. Then the sulfuric acid. Then… was there anything else?"

After pondering for a while. "Ah! Right. I should buy some clothes, high quality. I don't wanna stay in that bloody and ripped out clothes anymore."

After ordering everything. He looked at the time on his phone. 11:23 PM. 

He got up and headed out of his home. 

"Now… the last thing is to steal the sword from… what was her name again? Seina?"

—***—

After walking for a long time, he reached a more urban area. As he started looking around to find her home.

"She was the mc of the second terrifier movie. And if I remember correctly, there was something special about her, and that is why she could kill art."

After wandering for a long time, he still couldn't find her house and decided on something.

"At that moment I gave Jihye a whole lot of philosophical bullshit. But now, I feel the same."

He stayed quiet for a moment and strode towards one of the houses. "Well, who cares, I am a hypocrite. But also someone who loves stories. And this story would not be that great if Art was not here."

He came to the entrance of the basement, and took out a jar of some kind of liquid. And put some on the lock of the basement.

"I searched up this thing to order it. But I already forgot its name, why does Mercury, Bismuth and everything like that look the same when liquified?"

After waiting for a while, he grabbed the lock, and it crumbled into dust.

He opened the basement entrance and entered it.

After entering it, he looked around for a while rummaging through everything, but he couldn't find what he came for.

He came out of the basement. "Ugh. Seems like I have to keep going on until I find it."

After doing the same thing to about 10 or so houses, he is still doing the same. Things.

Even now, while rummaging through stuff in the basement, he finds some kind of box. 

When he opens it, he finds a sword in it–at the same time, a notification comes.

[You have found a hidden piece in the movie. The celestial sword.]

[You have been rewarded 500 coins for your discovery.]

"Ha. This shit is finally over!" Ken exclaimed.

—***—

Ken wakes from the alarm, as he smashes it to pieces to stop it.

"Ah fuck. It is the last day I will enjoy this luxury."

As he wakes up stretching his whole body. He got off his bed and when he was about to check the time–someone started to call him.

It was Lucas, but Ken ignored it. After checking the time, he walked towards the bathroom.

As he was brushing his teeth and washing up. He decided to take a shower.

"It's already 2 PM. And this might be the last day I take a proper shower."

After coming out, he checked everything he had and just randomly started going around the room.

This is starting to get boring. He thought.

Then suddenly something came in his mind. And he rushed towards his room. 

"There it is! The punching bag I came back with. It would be a good time to practice on how I will torture him by punching!" He exclaimed.

—***—

[The hunt begins.]

[Survive the night, or kill tier 6 immortal species, Art the clown.]

Ken takes a deep breath. "Fuck. I'm nervous, and also afraid at the same time."

Then suddenly the doorbell rings. As Ken opens the door. There is a person standing there, the same clown he saw on the fourth day.

"Welcome sir. Do you need something." Ken says while wickedly smiling.
