The Guts Test System? Who's Afraid!

Alter

"How could you possibly be here ... Alicia!?"

"Hihihihihihihihihihi .. I finally got to meet you, Rian!" A short-haired, statured woman stood in front of the door welcoming Rian.

"No, you are not Alicia .. Your face is indeed similar, but the real Alicia has no expression at all! Who are you really?"

"I? Of course I'm Alicia .. but I'm different from Alicia you know, hihihihihi ..." laughs the woman in blood red.

"What do you mean?"

Alicia approached Rian with a flick. "Hihihihihi .. you will understand after seeing this!" Alicia stuck out her hand and touched Rian's forehead with her index finger.

......................

Alicia was born with a different eye color between right and left. From birth, he was hated by his family. Even his own father ordered Liliana, Alicia's mother, to throw away the baby he was born with. As a mother, Liliana could not bear to throw Alicia away. Because of this, Alicia's father divorced Liliana. However, it had instead driven Liliana to success.

Within 12 years after Alicia was born, the name Avernus, which was Liliana's business since she was not married, became a well-known brand. Initially just a private school and a supermarket, it began to expand into other sectors. Starting from universities, hospitals, hotels, food companies, construction companies, pharmaceutical companies, to technology companies using the name Avernus.

However, all of those things did not make Alicia happy. Humans are creatures who prefer the majority over the minority. This is what Alicia felt. He is isolated because he is different. Alicia continues to experience isolation from her classmates.

At first, Alicia's classmates bully her. However, with the rapid development of the Avernus Group, gradually the parents of the children who harassed Alicia ordered their respective children to stop it all. Even the parents asked the child to get along with Alicia. But, they were all scared and disgusted at the strangeness from Alicia's eyes. They prefer to isolate it.

During Junior High, Alicia began to hide her blue left eye with her long bangs. Alicia deliberately chose a school that was far from her Elementary School first. He does not want to be isolated like he was.

Alicia's plan worked. Alicia gets along with her classmates. In addition to his faith, Alicia was named the most cute junior. However, all that changes when one of the boy's students pranks and grabs Alicia's bangs in class. From there Alicia's friends know the color of her left eye is different. The fight is repeated. Even the teachers were involved in bullying Alicia.

Infuriated by their actions, Liliana immediately bought the Junior High School and dismissed the teachers involved in bullying. Knowing this, the Junior High students immediately shut up and stayed away from Alicia. Wherever Alicia went, the atmosphere would be silent, as if they were all afraid of her. This left Alicia isolated again. Alicia finally fills her loneliness by learning computer programming, playing all kinds of musical instruments, and also reading

When Alicia entered high school, she met a twin student named Rani and Rina. They both try to be friends with Alicia. But Alicia closed her heart. Rina and Rani did not give up so easily. They also invite Alicia to follow the extracurricular music, where Rani and Rina are good at playing the piano.

One time, Alicia accidentally flicked her bangs while sweating while playing the piano. Rani and Rina who were also practicing the three looked at Alicia's eyes. At first they were surprised. But they are not disgusted and curious. From then on, Alicia began to open her heart.

"Alicia, are you rehearsing tonight again?" rani asked, one pigtailed woman. She looks sporty and beautiful with her pigtails.

"Yes .. if I don't practice, I'm afraid of failing the initial selection …"

"When your piano play is very good, but you still practice." said Rina, Rani's twin sister.

"Hehehe, could you .." Alicia blushed in embarrassment at Rina's words. However, he was also very pleased with his praise.

Alicia, Rani, and Rina have just been facing the music arts teacher who is also the teacher in charge of extracurricular music in the teacher's room. The three of them get the opportunity to represent Avernus High School to perform at the national piano competition to be held next month.

"Oh yes, horrors, if you plead in front of the mirror in front of the 4th floor stairs, your request will be granted. Don't you wanna try me?" Rani is very happy with the legends and myths. So he always recommends mystical things to Alicia and also her twin sister, Rina.

"That kind of thing is impossible. Everything in this world, must be achieved with effort. I'm sure effort won't betray you! That's why I practice every day .." Alicia looks very serious. However, this did not stop Rani and Rina pinching Alicia's cheek

"Iih~ you are funny …"

"Ouch, cakit~"

"Hahahahaha" Rani and Rina laugh at Alicia's timidity. "Savage …"

Brakes

The heads of the three of them fell to the floor. Blood began to seep out onto the floor.

"Yeah"

"Hurry up and call an ambulance!"

The teachers and students immediately panicked to see this incident. Accidentally, the blood of Alicia, Rani, and Rina flowed towards the mirror that was in front of the 4th floor stairs.

......................

"How, have you seen it?" Alicia smiled seeing that Rian's consciousness had returned.

Rian finally understood why Alicia here was similar to Alicia whom he knew. "So yes ..you are a part of Alicia's soul who continues to regret the death of Rani and Rina, Alicia Alter. You also represent the lost emotions of Alicia. Because of you as well, the phenomenon of endless stairs arises. But I'm still confused, how could you possibly turn that mirror into a red door? Though you did not do the mirror challenge?”

“There are two ways to open the red door. The first way is the desire or strong emotions of the door opener.”

“Wish or strong emotions?”

“True .. if you want wealth, you can plead in front of any mirror. The stronger your will, the mirror will turn into a door. So are strong emotions. If you have a strong regret or anger, and that you do in front of the mirror, then the mirror will eventually turn into a red door.”

“So so, then what's the second way?”

“Tumbal ..”

“Tumbals? Human sacrifice?”

“True. And I used those two ways so I could open the red door.”

“So so, Rani and Rina are the fallout. I get it now. But, will the owner of the red door get his wish if using the first way?”

“Of course. Just look at the two evil spirits behind you.”

Rian looked back. There, there are 2 figures of women in red. Their faces looked very familiar. “Rani? The rina? I get it now. All desires will be granted, but in the supernatural! If I asked for wealth, I would be rich, yet it was in the magical realm!”

“Accurate once. Therefore, there was no way that a human who had not died could open the door. Unless you die and your soul becomes the guardian of the red door.”

“Then how to close it? I have a red door in the house. Every night I have to sprinkle salt so that the creatures from behind the door do not come out.”

Alicia Alter thought for a moment. “That's impossible, you should have died if you managed to open the red door! In my case, this was a rare occurrence where my soul was split in two as a result of falling down the stairs. The surviving humans could not use the power of the red door!”

“What because while doing a mirror challenge, I was once asleep with my own reflection in the mirror?” Rian recalled the moment where he was called to enter the mirror.

“In this world, many astral beings roam. Starting from the spirit of curiosity, to the demon king. The creature that hypnotized you was a demon. Satan needs a body to be able to wander beyond the supernatural realm. Looks like he was called when you did that challenge. However, it has no effect with the appearance of the red door.”

Rian was even more confused by the red door in his house. He felt that the door was different from the door at school. 'There must be a secret hidden behind the appearance of the red door in my house!’

While thinking, Rian suddenly remembered the original purpose he had come here. “Ahhh! Also true! I'm here to free Livia, Thunder, and Adi!”
