Upon entering the Entrance of Calamity, Shiro was immediately hit with a heavy pressure.

Narrowing her eyes, she released her killing intent in retaliation. Ice started to form on the walls as a frozen landscape seemed to form with every single step she took.

"Just out of curiosity, how did you even cultivate such a potent killing intent?" Nan Tian asked curiously since it was much denser than the ones he had seen in his life. Even those near the top of Black Monarchy didn't' have a killing intent this dense.

"Why, are you afraid?" Shiro chuckled with a small smile.

"A little. Out of curiosity, how many people have you killed?"

"This life or in total? If it's this life, I can tell you through my monster title." Shiro glanced back.

"Both if possible." Nan Tian shrugged.

"In this life, I've killed 314 people not including those from the trials. If we're talking about the ones in my past life… maybe in the billions?" Shiro replied while licking her lips slightly when she remembered the fear filled faces of those who were filled with regret.

Seeing Shiro lick her lips slightly with a sadistic face, Nan Tian couldn't help but swallow his saliva in surprise.

{I can't help but feel as though your definition of things that make you happy are a bit f*cked up.} Nimue raised her eyebrows.

{Plus, we've got a child here so don't be thinking of such cruel things.} She reminded.

'Ah oops.' Shiro coughed since she was carried away by the momentum. However, she couldn't help but wonder what was happening. Normally, she had a great deal of control over her killing intent and thoughts. Especially after she had Attie residing in her mana realm.

Furrowing her brows, Shiro looked further into the entrance and wondered if this was the cause.

The Entrance of Calamity.

There wasn't anything else from the system other than its name but Shiro knew that something was up. Thinking about it for a moment, Shiro pressed her hand against the walls of the entrance.

Sending out a pulse of mana, she frowned harder when she realised that 'nothing was wrong.'

"Are you ok?" Nan Tian asked after seeing her serious face.

"Mn? Yeah, I'm just wondering why I lost control for a moment then. Normally, I wouldn't be that open with my killing intent." Shiro replied.

"Oh? I'm guessing you think it's the site that's causing all of this then."

"Yeah."

Furrowing her brows, Nan Tian eventually shook his head.

"I can't detect anything abnormal from this place. Maybe we'll find out the deeper we go?"

"Hm… sure."

Venturing deeper into the entrance, Shiro could faintly feel the presence of people in the next room.

Well… 'people' were a stretch since their aura was extremely chaotic. One that resembled monsters that had gone berserk.

Narrowing her eyes, Shiro glanced towards Nan Tian and signalled for them to be cautious.

Sneaking towards the entrance of the room, Shiro peeked inside.

The moment she did this, she could feel something breaking in her mind.

[You have entered the first room. Calamity of Chaos.]

All thoughts about chaos and killing are now amplified to a point where it's almost impossible to stop. Any attempts to stop this will be hindered. You will only be able to leave this room once you've cleared the conditions.

Clear Condition: Do not kill anyone who has not killed in the last 2 minutes. You can only kill those who have killed recently. This trial is cleared once you kill 10 people.

Gritting her teeth, Shiro placed a hand on her head as she could already feel the effects.

"Are you two alright?" She called out behind her.

Glancing back, she could see that Yin was also grasping her head while flames started to dance around them.

As for Nan Tian, he only had a frown on his face but Shiro knew that he was feeling uncomfortable.

"Yeah, though the clear condition is a little troublesome." Nan Tian nodded after taking a deep breath. Once they killed someone who hadn't killed in the past 2 minutes, they'll be eliminated. If you saw someone random, you wouldn't know if they have killed recently or not so it becomes a waiting game.

However, the longer you wait, the less chances there are for you to kill them. At the same time, if it is just the two people along, neither of them could kill each other as they'll be eliminated.

"What a troublesome trial. I'll look for some high ground in this place and we'll kill them through sniping. That way, we can see if they've killed or not before we fired our bullet." Shiro suggested.

"Sure." Nan Tian nodded.

Entering the room, Shiro immediately started to look around for somewhere they could use as a high ground.

Unfortunately, the space around them was an expanse of flat land that was filled with sand.

Clicking her tongue, Shiro slammed her hand down onto the ground and activated her tectonic quake attunement.

Forcing several large stone pillars to appear around the edge of the space, Shiro jumped up to the top of one with Yin and Nan Tian.

"Darling, you can do it first ok?" Shiro said as she created a sniper for Yin.

"Eh? Why me first?" Yin tilted her head.

"Because me and Lil' Tian can handle ourselves easily. I'm not saying that you can't but at least I'll be able to help you if you go first." Shiro smiled.

Giving Yin the sniper, she started to look around for someone that had killed recently. Narrowing her eyes, she had the urge to kill those that were just wandering around but quickly tried to restrain herself.

It wasn't impossible but it was extremely tough to stop herself from just lashing out.

Gritting her teeth, she created a stake and slammed it through her hand. The pain quickly shocked her out of the murder frenzy as she started to look around. While this was happening, her wound was already starting to close her and her HP was back to full.

"You know, every time I see your regeneration, I'm always astonished at how strong it actually is. Unless it's through brute force and level disparity, I don't think anyone can kill you." Nan Tian chuckled. There was the urge to fight Shiro and Yin but he quickly squashed that thought by injuring his organs. Naturally, he had his own passive healing but it wasn't as strong as Shiro's.

"What can I say? If my regeneration was slow, I would have been killed in quite a few battles that I've been through already." Shiro smiled before helping Yin adjust her sniper.

"That one, the two of them are about to finish their battle. Shoot the moment you confirm he had killed the other guy." Shiro instructed as Yin nodded.

Waiting for a short moment, she pulled the trigger.

*BANG!!!

The echo of a sniper shot rang out as the bullet shot towards the man. Before he could even relish in the ecstasy for killing someone, a bullet destroyed his head as he slumped to the ground, dead.

"One down, nine to go."

###

After helping Yin hunt the 10 she needed, a magic circle opened up beneath her as her body started to fade away.

"I'm guessing that's you going to the next room. Don't go too far, we'll be right behind you." Shiro smiled as Yin nodded her head.

Once Yin faded away, Shiro glanced towards the battlefield with a frown.

"Numbers are dwindling. I'm not sure if we can get enough kills to proceed onwards." Nan Tian sighed.

"I think we can. There are already more people than there should be in this room. I made sure to remember the faces of those who can before us and none of them are here. This means that the people have come from elsewhere." Shiro narrowed her eyes.

"Let's be patient for now, new participants should be coming soon." She muttered and looked through her scope. Making a second sniper for Nan Tian, they started to look for any prey that could be killed.

As time passed, their number of kills slowly increased since the number of the participants would be 'refreshed' every so often. There were a few people who wanted to attack them but Shiro would leap away using Rift Strider and shoot from a different spot.

Soon, both of them reached the required number of kills to advance to the next room.

Magic circles opened up beneath them as their body faded away.

[Calamity of Chaos cleared. You have entered the second room.]
