The lights flicker and a tearing scream echoes through the mansion. Roux was sent flying into the air and landed onto the dead bodies on the stone slab. It was the first time I had seen a person be blown off their feet. I suppose that was caused by offensive magic that the Lord seldom uses. The Lord’s expression was the same as ever. His eyebrows were not furrowed nor was his face contorted, but one could surely see the spark of anger smoldering in those cunning eyes. “Roux! You…you…-

I can feel the power surging through my body. I truly wonder how long it has been since I was given new life. The Lord has started to regard me with strong suspicion. “…There is still no change…hmph…even though he should have already gotten a lot stronger…” At the laboratory. After our daily hunting routine was over and done with, the Lord quietly groaned and looked at my face. I presumed the face of a puppet. There’s a rule of thumb to everything. The research on…

I maneuver a long, disproportionate arm that is already accustomed to using the machete, to slay a monster monkey that jumps out of a tree overhead. The sweet smell of blood fills the air and the woods grow quiet. I wonder if the monkeys sitting up high on the treetops, observing the fight realized that the opponent was too out of their league. They let out a strange call and hightailed it deep into the woods. A body that can freely move around. The sensation of life dispersing from the…

I am no stranger to counting down the hours. If I could have wished for anything, it would be a clock. Although I can’t tell the time of the day yet, I am already aware of Lord Horus’ daily routine. To be more precise, rather than his routine,what I had figured out was when he visits this particular room. He always visits the morgue well after dark. There have been no exceptions thus far. If my calculations aren’t wrong, he visits the morgue once a day, at night without…

The bear yelps out in pain and keels over. I simply keep swinging the machete down at the half-dead bear with all my might. My blade strikes relentlessly and tears through the thick coat of the bear and proceeds to hack at its flesh. The blood spatters everywhere but my hand doesn’t stop. My body is moving on its own. I am witnessing everything that is happening, from a distance, separated from my own body. The blood spatters onto my face and eyes. But I don’t feel any pain. Well, if I…

I meekly obey the Lord and follow him out of the mansion. I am lost for words as I blankly look in awe at the scenery that unfolded in front of my eyes. I had spent most of my life bedridden. The reason being a strange debilitating illness that inflicted headache, stomachache, and never-ending pain all over my body. Nobody knew the cause. There was no known cure. No great doctors or sorcerers were capable of healing me. People weren’t sure I would live past the age of ten, when I stopped…

“End. Follow me.” The Lord gives me a curt order and leads us out of a room that resembles a research laboratory. I follow him without a word. My body moves well. My extremities move as I will them. I wonder how long it’s been since I was able to walk properly…. It felt strange to have a body that feels no pain. Somehow, it hasn’t really sunk in yet… as if I’m watching a dream unfold. After leaving the room, the Lord stops walking, turns around and looks at me. His…

Translator: Wisteria Editor: Silavin And thus, I was revived. I opened my eyes and my foggy, blurry vision was greeted with a room made from stone. Lining the walls were rows of bookshelves with a bright red magic array drawn on them. Everything felt so new, like I hadn’t seen or felt anything before now. My slate had been wiped clean, like I hadn’t had a will or consciousness or even any intelligence until now. All these changes felt like how one would feel when they are awakened from a…

Everyone was covered in wounds. Even just climbing down the mountain safely was difficult, but thankfully Alice’s subordinates finally caught up. First aid treatment was given to the wounded, the ones who could not walk were carried out on stretchers, and the one casualty was placed in a body bag. They then made their way back to Terrane. Karan, Bellocchio, and Nick were carried out on stretchers, Wilma and her subordinates as well. All had cuts on their backs, clearly Garosso’s…-
