My Beautiful Disciples, I’m really not the Main Character!Chapter 134: Chapter 134: Hell’s Pass
“Did you say something?” The old man looked at Eren with confusion. “Is something wrong with the list?”
“No. Nothing seems to be wrong with the list, but…”
Eren frowned at the sight of the options. Once again, he was being screwed by these options.
He was once again at the crossroad where he had a choice between convenience and the rewards.
He could select the most rewarding option or he could select the option that made his life easier while going along with his initial plan.
[Option One: Select the ten weakest disciples from the list and complete the mission only with them without fighting for them.
Reward: Hell’s Pass (Unique Grade)]
[Option Two: Select the ten strongest disciples from the list and complete the mission only with them without helping them.
Reward: Luck +2]
[Option Three: Take no disciples and complete the mission yourself.
Reward: Level +2]
[Option Four: Take all the disciples with you and help them complete the mission.
Reward: Affinity +5]
Looking at the options, he didn’t have to think hard to guess which reward was the most valuable.
Although he didn’t receive a pendant series reward, he did get a unique reward as an option. Moreover, the name also made him interested.
Hell’s Pass. The name of the reward reminded him about one of the four books that made this world.
It was also something related to the Necromancer Tower, which was the most mysterious and hard to explore existence.
‘Should I take the safe route?’ he wondered. ‘No. How far can I go with the safe route? Sooner or later I will have to face the Necromancer Tower.’
‘But destroying the sects with just the weakest disciples of the sect? Is that even possible?’
The Demon Sect was strong. Not just strong, it was the strongest sect. Even the weakest disciple of the sect was stronger than an ordinary sect’s top disciple. But that was the extent of it.
To destroy other sects, they didn’t just have to face the disciples of the other sects. They had to kill the Elders, the Guardians and even the Sect Master. Could these disciples kill them without his help,
“I have made up my mind.”
Eren opened the last page of the book. “I want the ten people that are at the end of this list.”
He showed the page to the old man, who looked even more confused.
“Elder Ren, are you sure that you want them and not the Core Disciples?” he asked. “Could it be that you are planning to fight for them?”
“Don’t worry. I won’t fight for them. Just call these disciples here and arrange the boat for our departure.”
Eren handed the book to the old man. Although confused, the old man did as he was asked. It was a mission for Eren. He didn’t have anything to do with it.
He returned to the Mission Hall and had a message delivered to the Elders overseeing the Outer Sect. ᎷᏙⅬЕƜРΥЯ.ϽՕМ
The ten disciples that were selected by Eren belonged to the Outer Sect.
As soon as the Outer Elders were informed that an Inner Elder was waiting, they personally gathered the ten disciples and reached the mission hall.
….
The Outer Elders entered the Mission Hall with the ten disciples trailing behind them.
Each disciple wore expressions ranging from curiosity to outright fear.
They all knew that being summoned by an Inner Elder was no small matter, and they couldn’t understand why they were called. Did they do something wrong?
Eren stood in the center of the hall, his arms folded as he observed each disciple. They were clearly the weakest of the lot, some barely able to maintain their composure in his presence.
Quite a few disciples recognised Eren. Most of the female disciples had their eyes lit up.
Most of them had been thinking about becoming Elder Ren’s disciple if they could become an Inner Disciple. They didn’t expect to have an opportunity to meet him this early.
“Listen up,” Eren began. “You have been chosen for a special mission to eradicate the enemies of our sect. This mission will not be easy, and I will not be helping you. You will have to rely on each other.
And if you fail, you will die.”
Some of the outer disciples exchanged nervous glances. It was a mission that was personally led by an Inner Elder. It couldn’t be an easy mission.
Even someone like that was saying that they might die in this mission. It wasn’t a small thing. Some were wondering if they could step back and give up on the mission, but they didn’t even have the courage to speak up.
One of them, a young man with short black hair, stepped forward, hesitatingly. “Elder, can we… give up?”
“Those who are cowardly, don’t deserve to be a part of this sect. If you want to be expelled, then you can surely give up,” Eren answered, not caring about his harsh tone.
He didn’t want anyone to give up. No, he couldn’t allow them to give up.
He needed the ten weakest disciples for this mission. If even one of them stepped back and he had to replace them, it wasn’t going to be the ten weakest.
To make them the ten weakest disciples of the sect, he could only expel the person who didn’t agree.
Although he also didn’t like forcing them to put their lives on the line, but once again, he had no other choice on the matter.
His every action, his every choice had the potential to make or break his future.
While he had the opportunity and the options were simpler, he wanted to gather as many high rewards as possible.
Hearing his words, the young man went silent. He had worked so hard to join the sect. He couldn’t afford to be expelled.
Moreover, he wasn’t even sure if Eren was actually going to expel him and not outright kill him if he insisted.
He turned to the Outer Elders. “Ensure that they are prepared and equipped for the journey. We leave in an hour.”
The Outer Elders nodded, quickly moving to follow Eren’s orders. The ten disciples, still stunned, were led away to prepare.
As they departed, the old man who had initially presented Eren with the list approached him.
“Elder Ren, are you certain about this? You said you are not going to interfere or fight during this mission. Can those ten even complete this mission at the rate? These disciples…they’re not ready.”
