Chapter 947: A Bit of Luck in Unfortunate Circumstances

As soon as she pierced down, the morals she had been upholding would vanish. From then on, she’d no longer be tied down by anything. If there was a first time, there would be a second time. After it happened a few times, she’d become numb to it and would no longer feel conflicted like now.
Ning Shu gripped the shaft of her sword so tightly the veins on the back of her hand bulged.
“Kill him, kill him...” A cold voice was next to her ear.
It was either you died, or I die. If it had been an enemy in front of her, she would’ve lifted her sword and slashed down without hesitation, but this was an unarmed and defenseless child that she had no past with.
“2333, what should I do?” Ning Shu asked 2333 for help.
2333 was silent for a moment, then he asked, “What do you want to do?”
“I don’t want to kill him.” After saying this, Ning Shu felt her entire body relax and her thoughts cleared up. She didn’t want to kill this child.
This child had no relationship with her.
The system was silent.
“2333, please help me.” When Ning Shu saw that 2333 wasn’t speaking, she asked again for help.
“There’s a fake death drug in the system marketplace. I’ll help you get one, but don’t report me. This is illegal conduct. I’m risking being reformatted to help you. This is the last time. If we’re discovered, both of us face the fates of being exterminated,” said 2333.
Ning Shu’s heart leaped with joy. “Thank you, 2333! Don’t worry, I’ll exchange for these things in advance next time.”
A pill then appeared in Ning Shu’s palm, which allowed her unsettled heart to finally calm down.
It seemed that in the future, not only did she have to exchange for the basic survival items, she also had to prepare these things.
She could only use the things she exchanged for in advance in the tasks.
“Have you decided?” asked One. “With a will like this, you can’t be a death soldier. There’s no need for you to take on this time’s assignment.”
“I can do it.” Ning Shu quickly walked to the bed and covered the mouth of the crying infant. Then she looked down and quickly stabbed her sword into the infant’s left chest before pulling it out.
The stone room that was noisy just a moment ago now only contained the breathing of Ning Shu and One.
One glanced at Ning Shu, then walked over to check the infant’s pulse before checking his breathing.
After a good while, once he confirmed that the infant was dead, he said to Ning Shu, “Passable.”
Ning Shu asked, “Can I bury him?”
One glanced at Ning Shu, his gaze extremely sharp. In the end, he nodded.
Only then did Ning Shu slowly move to pick up the dead child and leave the stone room.
“Wait.” One spoke.
Ning Shu’s heart jumped, but she feigned calmness as she turned around and asked, “Is there something else?”
“Return quickly. In a bit, you’ll be coming with me to see Master,” said One.
Ning Shu nodded, then quickly left with the infant. She walked out of the enormous cave to the forest.
She quickly ran into the forest, found some herbs, and started chewing them. She undid the swaddling clothes and the child’s undergarments. There was a sword wound on the left chest where skin and flesh were visible.
Ning Shu pressed the herbs she had chewed against the wound to stop the blood.
2333 had said that this child’s heart was on the right side. That was why she had dared to pierce the left side. It probably counted as a bit of luck in unfortunate circumstances.
