Chapter 151: Answers beget More Questions (2/2)
”Wait here.”
After saying that, she went to Lexie and the other Core Pilots who had just disembarked from their Metagens.
Looking at the faces of those Core Pilots who are currently trembling in front of her, they're surely getting scrubbed by Nysia's nagging and orders. Only Lexie had a smile on her face as if she's more than willing to slave away for Nysia.
Is she a closet M for her?
”Please. You said you'll treat her.”
One of the triplet, the one riding the silver Metagen suddenly called out to me.
I looked back and saw the two of them looking at me with some kind of hope in their eyes. Though we did say that, I'm no doctor. That one probably got her head shook hard from my attacks earlier then after that, her energy got depleted. She only needs some rest and to recover her energy.
For them to worry like that, they probably haven't experienced that yet.
”Let's see. I can try but… what more can you tell us? The place you came from. What kind of place is it and who runs it?”
They're enemies to be interrogated but if they're willing to talk just for me to wake up that unconscious one, then I'll squeeze whatever information they have on them.
If it's just refilling energy, Physique and Spirit Boost were the answer. It's both generated using Flux Energy now, even if their effects were different from each other, the refilled energy contains the 4 assimilated energies.
”I… we don't know a lot but what we know is we were bought from our parents.”
”We're vagrants, we're still young back then so…”
”When we were deployed here, we were blindfolded to keep the place secret.”
”It was called the Order of the Dark Host.”
They're truly desperate eh? The two sisters alternately talk. From what they said, they were gathering children and training them somewhere. Maybe not just children, anyone who has the talent to become a Rank S possibly.
And Order of the Dark Host? Dark could be pertaining to the Dark World. Then who's that Host?
After getting an answer, it was then met with more questions. Haa...
”Did they have some bindings on you? To safeguard that you will not betray them.”
”No… They injected something but it was used to track us. There were others who kept on running away. If they activate it, we'll be paralyzed.”
”But it was removed when we were sent here, instead, this is embedded in us.”
The sister who was piloting the golden-winged Metagen pulled her clothes down. They were bound on their hand which restricted their use of energy that's why she could only try to stretch it down which revealed a spot on her chest.
Err… of course, it's not what others might think. In the place where the heart should be, a few inches above it could be seen a cube embedded into their body.
It's a transparent cube which clearly shows what's inside.
”Dark Energy…”
Seeing that, I couldn't help but whisper the energy's identity. That's a bomb embedded into them. If that cube containing that Dark Energy broke, they will be exposed to the energy and will be corrupted by it. With how dark it looked from outside, it's a compressed Dark Energy.
Upon my words, the two of them looked up, waiting for my next words.
