Chapter 150 150 - Fake Trial Or Real Trial



Then, as Aiden could see the messages of him being teleported, he was once again in the same white room which he had seen two times already.

Nothing had changed, the waiting room really hadn't changed at all as there was still absolutely nothing inside of it.

'Do the founding families have control over the system?' thought Aiden as he appeared in this room, still wondering how any of this was even possible.

Because as far as everyone knew the system was an unknown entity which had appeared a long time ago.

So, how could the founding families decide that they wanted to make a fake trial for the twelve participants that we left?

Then, the system's voice resounded inside of Aiden's mind followed by its usual beeping noise.

*BEEP*

[Your third trial will start in two minutes.]

Aiden mindlessly read that message which had just appeared in front of him, not caring about it that much.

However, he thought that he had spotted something weird inside that message, wanting to make sure that everything was alright, he read it once again, this time with a shocked expression on his face.

"Isn't this meant to be a fake trial? Why is it written that my third trial will begin?" exclaimed Aiden, who was completely alone inside this giant white room.

Aiden wasn't sure what was happening, not sure if this was meant to happen.

He remembered the words of Thorin extremely and he remembered them being that they would be undergoing a fake trial, so why did the system just talk about Aiden's third trial?

It literally made no sense.

"Well, it makes no sense only if they were able to send us in a fake trial in the first place," said Aiden angrily, thinking that the four founding families' heads had tricked them into doing their next trial instead of a fake one.

Aiden actually didn't mind it being a real trial, but he didn't know if it was even supposed to be one.

'Surely Melinda would have said something to me,' thought Aiden, trying to think about something which could prove that this was simply one big mistake.

He thought that if Melinda had known that this would happen, she would have tried to tell him, but he hadn't heard anything from her. The only thing he had received after their meeting was her smile.

But who could even give a shit about a simple smile?

Well, Aiden didn't, that's for sure.

"System, is this a real or fake trial?" asked Aiden, remembering that the system could actually answer some of his questions.

And the one which the system had just given explained everything to Aiden, well for the most part as he still didn't understand some things.

[User, there are no fake trials.]

Hearing this Aiden instantly realized that all twelve participants had been tricked and were sent to a real trial, however, the thing that Aiden didn't quite grasp was why he was alone at the moment.

"System why am I alone for this trial?" asked Aiden.

There wasn't any type of weird situation like the one that had happened on his second trial. The system hadn't said anything about sending him alone here.

However, the answer from the system confused Aiden even more.

[All twelve participants of the Inter Family Tournament will do their Trials alone. A deal was made, and the system respected it.]

It was those last words that the system had just said that made Aiden confused a lot.

'A deal? What deal are you talking about?' thought Aiden, asking the system.

However, as usual, when Aiden actually asked an interesting question the system wouldn't answer him.

Aiden was now used to it, but it was still frustrating he had to admit that.

He didn't try to ask again as he knew that nothing would change, no matter what Aiden would be trying to do, he would be answered by silence.

However, how could a system make a deal?

That was something that Aiden couldn't even begin to understand.

His frustration was honestly at an all-time high as he couldn't understand anything at the moment.n0veluSb.c0m

He was lied to and the system had just said to him that people could make a deal with it.

'Wait can I try to make a deal with it?' thought Aiden, wanting to see what would happen if he would try to do such a thing.

"System I want to make a deal with you," exclaimed Aiden as he heard a beeping noise in his mind at the same time.

*BEEP*

[One minute before the start of the trial.]

"Are you ignoring me again?" asked Aiden out loud, once again mad.

Then, he heard a beeping noise inside his mind which gave Aiden a little hope to have an answer.

*BEEP*

[Yes.]

The system had just ridiculed him and Aiden was not taking it well, to say the least.

"Now you answer me, you useless piece of shit system," insulted Aiden, right away, letting all of his anger leave his body.

Of course, he was frustrated, he wanted to make a deal just like the founding families' heads had made from the looks of it and he couldn't even begin to try to make one.

Why couldn't he?

What made him so different than those people?

"Is it because of my strength? Is that why you're ignoring me? Is it because I'm too weak," asked Aiden, frustrated, as he heard another beeping noise inside his mind.

*BEEP*

[Yes.]

[You will be summoned to your third trial in 10 seconds.]

Aiden only read the first message ignoring the second as he simply couldn't be bothered by it at the moment.

'Strength, it's always fucking strength. Can't I just be the most powerful already?' thought Aiden, annoyed by this whole thing.

He knew that strength would always be important but in this world especially everyone depended on it.

His lacking strength was also the reason why he was wearing that stupid mask on his face.

Aiden just didn't care anymore as he removed it.

"Stupid mask," he said, destroying it by punching it with all of his strength.
