Chapter 258 It was my fault
"Release the hunting dogs!" the captain of the first squadron roared violently. He moved his right hand forward. Standing with a military posture, his presence exerted pressure over the military field.
In front of him stood a group of 50 young people, including both men and women. "I don't really like being called a dog," a young man with fixed black hair said while furrowing his brow, a slight laugh echoing in his ears. He rolled his eyes at the girl to his left. "If you don't like being called a dog, imagine how I feel. Bitch? Seriously?
Quit whining. Besides, you chose to enter this faculty," the brown-haired girl said.
"Could you two shut up for a moment? I don't want us to be punished again because of your bickering," an annoyed murmur interrupted their conversation.
The two looked at the young man who was slightly shorter than them. "Lirio, how about you shut up a bit better?" the boy said with a mocking expression. Lirio's eyes glinted, "Shut up, you damn bastard, you're only 10 centimeters taller than me!" Lirio shouted in frustration.

"You two, to the punishment room!" the captain of the first squadron shouted furiously. "But I didn't do anything!" another frustrated female voice emerged, while she stomped on the ground. "Right now!" the captain shouted again.
The group of four recruits walked towards the room. "You," the blue-haired girl looked resentfully at the other three. "Calm down, Lisa, we're already used to it," the black-haired boy said, furrowing his brow at the brown-haired girl, who completely ignored his gaze. "Why don't you control your girlfriend, Matias!" Lisa yelled.
"Matias..." Rose said softly as she placed her hands over his, looking at him concerned. He sighed and tried to calm his heart; his eyes wandered as he looked into the darkness of the night. "I'm okay now, Rose, thank you," he said wearily. Rose nodded with a sweet smile. "According to what the instructor informed us, they belong to the cults of the 7 deadly sins," Lisa said with a serious expression.
Silence lingered among the four people; each had their own thoughts about the cults, especially Matias.
A memory appeared in his mind; he was small. His parents were adventurers, and one day they took him with them to zone 2. He insisted on going; it was his birthday. His father told him he could ask for whatever he wanted. Little Matias wanted to go with them; he wanted to see his parents bravely fighting against the creatures. In fact, in his innocent mind, he wanted to do it too.
His parents hesitated, but finally agreed. It was an exciting trip, a lot of fun. Although he was very scared at first, his mother always hugged him while his father protected them.
Matias's body trembled violently; he closed his eyes tightly as cold sweat ran through his body. He saw it, he saw everything: how those crazy bastards killed his parents while they tried to defend him. He was hidden; they couldn't see him. He watched in horror as his parents' agonizing bodies were brutally massacred while they laughed and enjoyed themselves, as if it were a party.
His mother's head rolled on the floor, and he saw it, his mother's dead, lifeless eyes staring directly at him as if blaming him for what happened to them.
Matias put his hands to his head as he murmured, "It was my fault, it was my fault." It was his fault, his parents died because of him. If he hadn't gone, they would have had the chance to escape. It was all his fault, for wanting to go with them, for insisting. The death of his parents weighed on his shoulders. His body trembled even more as he continued to murmur, as his mind sank into darkness.
"Matias!" Rose shouted, seeing that he wasn't responding to her calls. Lirio and Lisa approached Matias as they tried to help him.
