Well, because I overslept, I'm not tired yet. Probably better to see what Ara and Chung are doing right now. "I got bored doing all these jobs. Let's look what they're doing right now to see the last secret".
"Are you sure?" Add chuckled.
"Of course," I nodded. I really want to know!
"Who are 'they'?" Rena asked, feeling curious.
"It's not your business. Just keep doing your job," I smirked, "Oh, and keep that job for me, please".
"But—Aisha, wait!" Rena looked at me with an annoyed face.
"Come on, Add," I said as I go away. "Bye, Rena!" I smiled and waved my hand.
We went to a huge castle in Sander. "Many guards are here," I said as I look inside. It's like we need allies or something.
Crack!
Why, of course! He stops the time again!
"Good job!" I gave a thumb-up to Add.
"What should we do with them?" he asked as he points the guards.
I chuckled. "I've prepared something in case we have to do this," I smiled as I took out tranquilizers from my pocket.
"Let's inject them all!" I shouted.
"That's all, right?" I asked as I look at my tranquilizers. We still have some more!
"Yes," Add nodded.
Crash!
All of the guards fell to the ground. Just as planned!
"We didn't enter the castle yet," I sighed. I wonder how many guards inside.
Bang!
I blinked and closed my eyes. That scares me!
...I can feel something cold around my waist and I rest my body on something cold too.
"You're shocked, mistress?" an annoying voice can be heard.
I slowly open my eyes. This cold thing is Add?!
I took a step away as I feel my face getting hotter. "You blinked right to the bullet," he laughed.
Really...
I'm really embarrassed now! Me, the best magician, blinked to kill myself instead of dodging.
"Let's do this," he smirked. A portal appeared on the ground.
I'm falling! "At least tell me where to go!" I yelled.
We fell to the castle rooftop. Around 8 snipers are here. "Surprise!" Add cackled.
I summon my staff. We need to gather all the snipers and kill them in one hit.
I pull them using my mana and release a giant circular energy blast.
Time to explode! Boom!
Before they're launched in any direction, Add releases some kind of energy that pulls them all and...
...more explosion! Boom!
"I think we're too loud to stealth," I said to him.
He shrugs. "They're not coming after what just happened".
Hm... Suspicious...
"The problem is we don't know her location," I sighed.
"Of course we know," Add smirked. A screen popped out from one of his nasod dynamos, showing a radar.
There are white circle and 2 small red circles. I'm sure these red circles are Ara and Chung. "How?" I asked.
"I put a small chip on their bodies. Luckily they didn't realize," he cackled.
"What about Elesis and Els?" I asked again.
The radar zoomed out, showing a town map. I can see 5 more small red circles. Each small red circle is showing a box of name.
Ara, Chung, Elesis, Els, Rena, Raven, and Eve.
"What's the white circle?" I touched the white circle with my pointy finger.
A box popped out.
Mistress.
Cool! I'm his top priority!
"I can't believe you're having fun with a radar," Add chuckled.
I just realize I'm smiling a bit when I was thinking about being his top priority. "L-Let's just go!" I commanded.
Let's enter the castle from the rooftop!
We went down and a lot of people are surrounding us, waiting with their weapons in hand.
...This is a bad idea.
I release an energy aura. They didn't move from their place? Usually my enemies will get launched. They're wrapped with pink sparks.
Oh, it must be Add's doing. I just realized there's a magic field on the floor.
I jump and stomp the ground. Before they get launched (it won't happen this time!), I do the same thing, but more powerful.
This castle is pretty solid, by the way. I was planning to get down quickly by destroying the floor, but nevermind.
They started moving—falling to the floor. "No more tranquilizers?" Add cackled.
"Nope! I got bored," I smirked, "let's just beat them".
"We'll accidentally kill them anyway," Add showed his evil grin.
"That's better!" I shouted.
I think some of these people died.
Amazing! We sneak in easily! Hail no tranquilizer!
I open the door slowly and take a peek.
Nobody's around.
There's a huge phoru plushy on the bed. Pretty sure this is Ara's room. I gave her the plushy as birthday gift 3 years ago.
"AAAAAAAAAA!"
...Okay... That voice...
"...It's Chung, isn't it?" I asked.
"Yeah. They're right in our spot, according to my radar," Add replied. "Underground?"
Underground? "We checked the whole castle and there's no door to underground. I can't feel any magical flow in here. It's not a magical door either," I said as I knock the floor. Hopefully I can find some secret door or something.
We looked around and pressing everything we can press like an idiot for about 10 minutes.
Progress: 0%
"Maybe we have to check this WHOLE castle," I sighed. This is frustrating! "Can we just teleport to their place somehow?"
"There's a 87% chance of failing. Wanna try?" Add cackled.
87%?! That's too high! "No please. It's a waste of time".
How do we get to their secret room? I'm curious. There's no point in staying here. I opened the door, "let's go, Add. We have to—"
If you don't like something disgusting, I recommend you to scroll down. I'll tell you the summary of this scene at the end of the chapter!
I stopped speaking after what I see outside this room. It's different. There are corpses everywhere. Looks like somehow we activated the switch somewhere.
Just as planned!
I can hear a sound of sparks.
"CCTV, mistress," Add informed. He broke the CCTV using his nasod dynamos.
Oh... right... I didn't realize...
What's with all these sad corpses? Is Ara a psychopath or something?
"I'll keep walking. Just stop me if something bad happened," I said as I kept walking.
This corridor is pretty well decorated. There's a marionette, an effigy of human heads and limbs, brains, guts, and many things. Of course, blood is everywhere.
"Hahahaha! That was AWESOME! How does it feel?!"
"It... hurts...!"
A sound of a girl giggling can be heard. It's Ara. I'm sure of it.
"Of course it is! Hehehahahaha!"
Man...
I hate to admit this fact: she's cool.
I love to admit this other fact: she's going TOO far.
We finally able to take a peek! I'm so excited to see what's going on!
I take a peek from the door, using one eye. Limbs and heads are scattered on the floor. There are colorful potions on the table. In the middle of the room, Ara is smiling creepily, looking at Chung coughing black liquid as he breaths heavily. His sclera is black, just as I suspected.
That's weird. Add isn't breathing.
Ara takes a syringe filled with dark purple liquid. "You need rest, Chung?"
"Yes..." Chung answered weakly.
"Alright. Let's rest..." Ara grinned evilly, "...later!"
She injects Chung and he screams in pain. This time, blood is coming out from nose, ears, and eyes.
Wait, I'm not sure. Its color is black.
Once again, Chung is coughing 'blood'. Something else is coming out from his mouth. It's something like... a blood infected with snake's poison. You know, like a jelly.
But this is not a jelly! That black thing is moving!
And it splits open. The 'blood' came out along with maggots.
What the hell did she put into Chung?! Now dense yellow liquid thing is starting to come out from his whole body!
Ara laughs maniacally—sounds worse than Add. She walks toward the maggots. "Look at that! They're so CUTE~"
What's so cute about maggots?!
"You know what? Let's do more!" Ara shouted excitedly as she walks toward the table. She takes the dark blue potion and walks back. "Drink it, Chung".
Chung is looking at the potion weakly. I don't think he's able to move for now. Slowly, his trembling hand takes the potion. He opens it and…
Gulp!
…nothing happened?
Splash!
Chung screams in pain again. 'Blood' is coming out from his abdomen along with those jelly things. I move my head away.
Splash!
It hits the wall. I almost got hit by the jelly!
The jelly moves slowly, leaving a dense white liquid as its trail.
"Hehehehehahahahaha! Amazing! That was a perfect and beautiful sight!" Ara cackled. "I wish I recorded that!"
I move my head again to take a peek.
Ara sighs as she looks at Chung. He fell to the floor, not moving at all, but his eyes is telling me that he's still alive. "I got bored. Now I need to clean myself," she said as she looks at her clothes.
I poke Add. I need to tell him to go now without words—whoa!
Okay! You can stop scrolling!
I'm back at the rooftop. "No comment, milady?" Add chuckled.
He teleported us here! Good!
"Nope," I answered with straight face. I don't know how to react to all that. Chung is immortal as long as Ara alive, so he won't die by those crazy experiments.
The irony…
"Um… Add?" I touched his arm, "why is your body cold? And you're not breathing".
"I'm breathing," Add looked at me, "maybe you can answer the first question by yourself, mistress. What were you thinking when you're summoning me?"
What was I thinking? "Well… I feel like I don't care about everything and if the slave is not like I want, I think I'm going to die".
"Maybe that's the reason," he chuckled.
"I just know that my feelings have something to do with summoning," I replied. That's… really not important.
"What now?" Add asked.
"I'm going home. I'm tired after seeing all those things," I said. "We're going to take that job after we kill Elesis".
"As you wish," he smirked.
Killing your two 'best' friends doesn't sound so bad.
Hahahaha! I love writing that kind of scene!
So the summary of that scene is:
Ara was using Chung as her subject for experiment. She injected him with many kind of potions and made him drink a potion as the last experiment of the day.
