Chapter 82 [Reina]
Ding! [God's Announcement! God Candidate Leon Traxler (@LeonTraxx) has released a new video: Message to Men in Harem City: Get Out by 7 pm, or I'll Rip You Limb By Limb.]
The men in Harem CIty panicked the second the video went out. It was a forced announcement, so every man in the city got it simultaneously.
"We'll need to do it." A man said to a group of men and five women.
He was a good-looking man with sharp blue eyes and short blond hair, cleanly cut. It was easy to imagine the man was a football player before the apocalypse.
"Lina, it's time." He said.
"I'm not sure about that, Manny." A blonde woman with trembling hazel eyes said.
"You have Sarah to back you up. We discussed this." Manny said.
"I think you should just leave." Sarah said in a trembling voice.
She was a brunette wearing short shorts with a short brunette bob-cut.
"I want that man to die just as much as you." Sarah said softly, "But you can do this after you're safe, right? Caitlyn Mira is strong enough to kill every??"
"Are you kidding!?" Manny yelled in disbelief, "Do you think he'll let us live after all the plotting we've done? It's not like we've hidden our actions."
Sarah turned away with a scared expression.
"Manny, they won't believe you." She whispered.
"There need to be two women, and Lina hasn't even gotten near him. If she claims she was assaulted, that famous man will call upon the gods to get footage.
I'm the only person who can claim I was assaulted, and sexual harassment isn't full??"
"Do you want us all to die?" Manny asked mockingly, "If we all die, it's on your hands."
"L-Look, Manny. That man is scum, but he'll keep his word. He's a sociopath; if he wanted to kill you, he'd wait until the barrier ended and do it without announcing??"
"You're just as bad as he is." Manny scoffed, "All of them. There are hundreds of whores in this city that would sell their bodies to that man for comfort. I didn't think you were one of them."
"Manny, I'm not a whore." Sarah trembled in anger, "I just won't lie and claim Leon Traxler has assaulted me. I won't die on your behalf.
It's sick that you'd ask us, women, to fake assault, die for your lies, and put my pain on display for your agenda! You're sick!"
"Hah. That scumbag arbitrarily killed hundreds of men two hours ago, just for being men seeking relief, and you're calling me scum for trying to survive by hurting his reputation? Hah! Hahahaha." Manny roared in sardonic laughter.

Ding! [God Candidate Reina Mirthwell has released a new video: Woman exposes the true nature of men in Harem City. Out's God Candidate Manny Rickman's plot to ruin Leon Traxler (@LeonTraxxx).]
??
Manny's eyes trembled in disbelief. He scanned the five women in the room.
"Which one of you whores did it?" He yelled at the top of his lungs, "Which one of you whored your bodies out and sealed the death of 300 men?"
Four women turned away in shock.
"It was you wasn't it!" He screamed, walking up to Reina, who didn't flinch. Her demeanor shifted completely; she was no longer the meek woman.
"Heh. You're scum." Reina laughed in disbelief, "We sealed your death warrants?"
"Of course you did! We're all going to die now because of you!" Manny screamed.
She casually entered her interface, ignoring the man.

Ding! [God Candidate Reina Mirthwell has released a new video: Men in Lemmox Sanctuary plot to kill Leon Traxler before the Apocalypse party.]

"What the fuck!?" Manny yelled at the top of his lungs, "What are you doing!? Stop!"

Ding! [God's Announcement: God Candidate Reina Mirthwell is now live: Manny Rickman attacks a woman after his lies are exposed!]

"W-What are you fucking doing?" Manny yelled, "I'm the victim here! I barely survived an arbitrary attack against my life just like the other men??"
??

Manny stumbled backward, and everyone turned away from him. They completely isolated him.
"I can't believe you. We trusted you." Manny scoffed in disbelief, looking around at all the men avoiding him. "You were a spy from the beginning. You disgust me."
??
Ding! [God Candidate Reina Mirthwell has released a new video: Manny Rickman, Robby Rook, and Emanuel Rodriguez convince 14 vulnerable, recently traumatized women not to get counseling and to spy from the men to improve their murder plot.]
??
The four other women, the only four left, stared at Manny with trembling eyes.
"I-I?? I-I??." Manny stuttered.
"Am scum. I just finished your sentence." Reina said with murderous eyes.
He scoffed bitterly. "Coming from the woman who is so good at lying that I couldn't pick it up."
Reina gave him a genuine smile.
"The reason that everyone loves Leon Traxler isn't because he's charming." She said, "It's because he doesn't care how twisted they are. He accepts them for who they are."
"Hah! A sociopath accepting people?" Manny laughed, "I'm scum, fine. But you're saying that he accepts people? How laughable."
"Yes. Instead of rejecting me for a lying problem I developed when I was in witness protection after my father killed my mother, he found a use for it." Regina said with a slightly emotional expression.
"Did he like it? No. But he didn't reject it, and somehow he cares enough to send me gifts from the events I missed out on while dealing with your manipulative ass."

"I didn't have the heart to tell him the suicidal plan you were plotting." Reina scoffed with an indignant expression, "Go die."
Reina turned around and walked out the door. Manny tried to summon magic and hit her, but it was blocked every time.
She walked down the steps of the dilapidated building that she was in and walked to the park with a broken expression.
The thought that she'd have to expose Manny's lies on the day Leon showcased pain for the first time made her sick.
Tears dropped from her eyes as she walked to the park with a lonely expression, concerned that people would accept her.
She had never felt close to anyone before. Her lies always put people at arm's length, never letting anyone get near her. Now she felt like she had a chance but didn't believe it, just like she didn't believe anything people said??xcept Leon.
Leon wasn't some superhero. He was scum. The guy just went through a wasteland, murdering people arbitrarily, unconcerned of the 20% of men or more that were ignorant or seeking asylum.
However, he was good to her. The man was the only person that made her feel like she might have a place to belong. Now, she was afraid he wouldn't want to speak to her, and everyone would reject her.
When she saw the park, she turned around with a panicked expression and tried walking away.

Ding! [God Candidate Leon Traxler (@LeonTraxxx) has released a new video:
"Everyone but Manny Rickman, get the fuck out of Harem City in the next five minutes. If any of you make another person I care about cry I'll chase you to the ends of the earth and turn you into a decoration for Harem City's wall."]
??
Reina stared at the notification in disbelief. She stared at it in tears and lost her perception of the world.
She didn't hear the men running out of buildings or the chaos of people trying to find their party members. Everything felt like a surreal dream.
Blink.
"Reina, Reina??."
Reina felt two hands on her shoulders, shaking her lightly. She looked up and saw Leon staring at her. She looked around and saw Caitlyn, Lindy, Tricksie, Kazz, Mindy, Mirth, Cynthia, Quinn, and all the other major management and military members.
"Reina. Come back home." Leon said while hugging her, "This is your city."
She accepted the hug and began crying on his shoulder.
"Why are you so good to someone like me?" Reina cried in disbelief.
"Regina, even if the slight emotions I have for you are fake, I still care about you." Leon said while holding her close, "And you've proved that you're worth at least that much."
