Chapter 671 The Commercial Break

As the cameras panned away from the stage and the lights dimmed slightly to indicate the commercial break, the room buzzed with whispered speculations and theories. Viewers at home and in the audience were left to wonder about Agent 'X's answer and the consequences it would bring.

Lenny, still seated and composed, used the break to collect his thoughts and prepare for the next phase. Despite the casual and almost light-hearted demeanor of the Magistri, Lenny knew the gravity of each decision made here. The game was more than a test of knowledge; it was a battle of wits and nerves.

Agent 'X', after hitting the buzzer, allowed himself a moment of introspection. The break, was a respite from the relentless pace of the game. His mind raced through possibilities, strategies, and the potential implications of his impending answer.

As the commercials played, the anticipation in the room continued to build. The question posed by the Magistri lingered in the air, a riddle wrapped in the guise of a simple choice. In this game of life and death, nothing was as straightforward as it seemed, and every participant, willingly or not, was part of a larger, more complex puzzle.

When the show returned from the commercial break, all eyes would be on Agent 'X', waiting to see if his answer would bring him closer to victory or if it would be another twist in the ever-unfolding drama of the game show. The stage was set, the players ready, and the game continued to unfold in its unpredictable, heart-racing fashion.

As the commercial break commenced, the screen flickered to life with a dark and eerie advertisement. It began with a scene all too familiar yet terrifying – a child, wide-eyed with fear, huddled under the covers as monstrous shadows crawled from under the bed. The creatures, grotesque and sinister, loomed over the bed with menacing intent, their eyes glinting with a hunger for the innocent.

But just as the monsters prepared to pounce, the door burst open with a resounding kick. There, standing in the doorway, was the child's mother, her expression a blend of fierce determination and righteous anger. "You killed all my other children, but not this time. This time around, I have my holy tool!" she declared, her voice echoing with a steely resolve.

With a wave of her hand, a magnificent bow materialized, its design intricate and ancient. She drew back its string, and an arrow made of pure, radiant light formed, ready to be unleashed. The mother's chuckle was a challenge to the beasts, a promise of retribution. With a swift motion, she released the arrow, which streaked across the room and struck the foremost monster. In an instant, the creature dissolved into a cloud of smoke, banished by the power of the holy tool.

The child, freed from the imminent threat, leaped from the bed and ran into his mother's arms. "Mama, mama, you saved me. Now I don't have to die like my brothers did in a pot of soup," he exclaimed, his relief and love for his mother evident in his embrace.

The mother, cradling her child, turned towards the camera with a triumphant smile. "It's all thanks to my Holy Tool. Shop for your Holy Tool by killing an angel near you," she proclaimed, her smile unwavering as she endorsed the powerful weapon.

As the commercial reached its conclusion, the scene took a dark and twisted turn. The mother was shown cooking a pot of stew, the same child now absent from her side. She tasted the stew, giving one final, chilling smile to the camera. The implication was clear and horrifying, leaving viewers with a sense of unease and disbelief.

As the screen faded to black and the game show returned, Lenny couldn't tear his eyes away from the screen. Disgust etched his features, a reaction shared by Agent 'X'. The commercial, with its mix of fantasy and dark reality, was a disturbing reminder of the twisted world they inhabited, where even the sanctity of a mother's love could be subverted into something grotesque and terrifying.

The game resumed, but the unsettling imagery of the commercial lingered in the air, a stark contrast to the tension and drama of the game show.

Lenny, along with Agent 'X', was left to ponder the bizarre and macabre nature of the advertisements that filled the airwaves in this strange and unpredictable world.

As the lights brightened and the stage came back to life, the Magistri made his grand entrance, striding confidently toward the center. The audience, already buzzing with anticipation, erupted into applause.

The Magistri, a master of showmanship, waved regally to the crowd, basking in their adulation. As the applause died down and the audience settled, he declared with a booming voice, "We are back to your favorite game show... HOW TO BE THE DEVIL'S SLAVE!" His words were met with a wave of excitement as the audience echoed the show's title, their enthusiasm palpable.

The Magistri's smile widened as he continued, "Before the break, we saw the daunting challenge between our two contestants who want to win the 3000 magic points. These two have a terrible history with one another. Lenny took the position of number 1 assassin, and Agent 'X' had Lenny's love for breakfast..." His words, dripping with dramatic flair, elicited chuckles and murmurs from the audience.

The rivalry and backstory between Lenny and Agent 'X' added a layer of intrigue and drama to the competition, making it more than just a game show – it was a spectacle of personal vendettas and long-standing feuds.
