The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat! - Chapter 264

Chapter 264: A panther Chapter 264: A panther Nicholas’s eyes glowed for a second, and his mind told him to draw.

He wanted to draw even in the dire situation of getting punched in the guts over and over.

He coughed and coughed, heaving for breath when he dropped his trembling hand on the floor and started drawing something on the sand.

‘Draw.’ The voice told him and he drew what he needed at that moment.

It was the one thing that would put him out of his misery.

The guys watched Nicholas struggle to draw on the floor and even laughed, mocking his foolishness.

They kicked him, moving him away from the position he knelt to draw but he struggled and crawled back to complete it.

“Is that supposed to be a bird?” They laughed.

‘Please, whatever…

Whatever is going to happen, let it stop…

all this.’ He drew the last line and then a notification popped up in front of him.

His eyes widened as he stared at the blue screen that said, ‘Congratulations, you have been chosen to become an Awakened.

You have awakened as a B-class awakened.’ Just like that, Nicholas had become an Awakened.

Why, though?

What did he do that made him an Awakened?

And why was someone like him chosen?

He was a nobody.

He had no power, no motivation in life, no strength.

Even his mother hated his guts, so why was he chosen to play such a big role?

Was this a joke?

“Let’s end this now.” One of the bullies said, pounding the thief’s fist.

“I’m sure I can make him pass out with this last punch.” Nicholas watched his taunting smile as he approached.

Nothing had changed.

He was still going to get beaten.

Just why…Why did he see a notification that only heroes saw?

He was still weak and defenseless.

Who could save him?

And then, his eyes went to the drawing on the floor and he gritted his teeth.

It was worth the try, right?

Even if it didn’t work, he would still get his ass beaten up.

And if it did…

“Please, help me.” He said to the drawing but nothing happened.

“Who are you calling on?

Your ancestors?” They mocked him and kicked his face, blood splatted out of his mouth and dropped on the drawing.

And just then, it glowed.

“What the…

What’s going on?” “What did that ghost do?” The drawing Nicholas had so desperately drawn on the sandy floor took form while he was almost passed out.

It was a panther.

It came to life and roared, black fog emanating from its body.

The bullies were scared witless.

“Shit!

This dude awakened.

How is this bastard qualified to be an Awakened?” As the panther attacked the bullies, their agonizing cries filled the back of the school.

They apologized, asked for help, and asked for it to stop, but the panther did not stop.

It ripped them to pieces and only stopped when there was nothing left that threatened the safety of its master.

Nicholas was barely conscious when all this happened and by the time he came to, only a few minutes after it had all happened, he found the panther sitting in front of him like an obedient puppy.

Nicholas was scared at first, his gaze traveling to the bloody mess the panther had made.

But it did not threaten him.

Instead, it sat there, waiting for its next command, but there was none.

As Nicholas’s heart fell at ease, he reached his hand towards the panther, only for its form to disintegrate and turn back to the sand from which it was made.

Nicholas breathed out a sigh of relief but still ended up crying.

He had killed people.

Even if it wasn’t intentional, and he didn’t know such a thing would happen, he was the one who drew the panther hoping that it tore away his bullies.

He had that mindset, so who could he blame for their deaths?

Luckily, the school did not blame him.

In fact, the agency supported him.

Upon hearing of what happened, decided to see if what he said was credible.

He was tested.

“Draw,” was the word the representative of the agency said to him, and he picked up a pen.

With shaking hands, he held the pen firmly on the paper.

“It’s okay.

Go ahead.

No one will fight you.” The representative said and Nicholas gulped.

He drew a bird.

A very harmless creature but at the end of it, nothing happened.

They looked at him, waiting for something to happen but Nicholas was confused.

He did not remember the trigger that made the panther come to life.

He could not figure it out, but if he had to guess…

He looked at his thumb and then bit it, shocking them.

He smeared his blood on the drawing, and light emanated from it.

The bird came to life, flying around him and stunning the people who saw it.

“You have a great gift.

And this will go to serve humanity greatly.” The representative said, satisfied with what he was seeing.

Nicholas looked at the screen in front of him.

His stats showed his strength, his levels, and all other things.

And underneath it was his skills.

The first one, which seemed to be basic, was the one he had used.

Creation.

He could create anything from his drawing.

But he could not create living people.

From there, he was moved to the awakened class, and from there, he went back to his quiet life.

Everything was peaceful, and he was strong, too.

So, he did not need to worry about being bullied by the other awakeneds since all he needed to do was surrender.

It was boring for them so they did not pick a fight with him.

But to this day, he still tends to ask himself, ‘Why was someone like me chosen as an Awakened?’ To cut it all short, Nicholas was scared of Leo because of his past experience.

Alice and Leo probably had a thing going on, given how they were so close, and since he was so strong, if he got upset that a gloomy guy like him was spending time with Alice, he would start bullying him like the guys from his ordinary class did.

“What are you doing up there?” Leo asked, CREATORS’ THOUGHTS Author_fredah Hm, it’s a valid reason to be scared but he should hurry and outgrow it.

Love won’t bite.

At least, he won’t bite you Also, if you see Noah instead of Nicholas, let me know
