Chapter 150 - Sworn (1/2)
_________________________________________________
[Agnes point of view]
The twin homunculi are with him right now, and here I am thinking that they will react as I hoped they would, becoming useful for me by killing him slowly, but alas, this is exactly how the homunculus in the original era acted like. The blessing from God of Death sure is a strange one
”!” [Agnes]
Sensing a strange vibe in the air, Agnes react by dodging an incoming scythe attack
”So, you have come to be corrupted once more by me” [Agnes]
”Try it if you can” [Thanatos]
”I sure would” (Is it just me or does this Thanatos suddenly become more talkative) [Agnes]
With a special portal stone, she summon a creature out of it
”Take this!” [Agnes]
But Thanatos simply command
”Return” [Thanatos]
”...” [Imperfect Homunculus]
The imperfect Homunculus return can finally met their creator
”What!” [Agnes]
”You seem confuse, surely someone like you should know my power by now” [Thanatos]
”Tchh! Don't you dare look down at me!” [Agnes]
The blessing from the fallen god started to surround the air

”I see, they haven't eaten anything yet” [Ash]
”Not to mention, they didn't speak at all” [Claude]
”Why is that, Lara, Nara?” [Ash]
””...”” [Lara, Nara]
”Shy? Because they're stranger?” [Ash]
~Nod~
”Alright you guys! Line up and introduce yourself once more! This time I will facilitate it” [Ash]
”Roger!” [Mara]
Just when they are all about to move
””Grandpa Claude, Sis Rafiah, Rean, Elise, Kara, Mara, Zerolith, Karon, Farhah, Savel, Singa, Charlotte, Housey, Behe, Mahsuri”” [Lara, Nara]
”So you already memorized their name, that's good!” [Ash]
~Blush~
”Guess we should just give them both some more time to familiarize with the new environment” [Rafiah]
”They reminded me of a kitten that suddenly got taken from the backstreet...” [Alice]
”That sure is true” [Ash]
Well, maybe it's because they're special I believe? They're human but
(What's with the strange magic core inside of them? And Mahsuri has it as well. Oh goddess, are they what you called homunculi?) [Ash]
If so, why are they reacting so strongly to my scythe? Are they connection between homunculi and the god of death?
””Hungry”” [Lara, Nara]
”Well, you won't need food and water to survive, but feel free to” [Mahsuri]
”Eeh...” [Other]
”Huh, so homunculi like you guys didn't need food, but it's cruel not to give them anything” [Ash]
”EEH!” [Other]
”That's correct” [Mahsuri]
”EEH!!” [Other]
”That explain a lot, can you tell me more?” [Ash]
”Defeat me first” [Mahsuri]
”It's a no then...” [Ash]
”Wait, what do you mean by homunculi!?” [Diana]
”So, the three of them are...” [Claude]
”Beat me, all I know is that they're a collection of human soul that's artificially created or inserted into an artificial body. Their salient features is the magic core within them” [Ash]
”But that's just like!” [Khamishah]
”Yeah, back at Kiserre, but all we see are failed products, but Lara and Nara here isn't one” [Ash]
””Hungry!!”” [Lara, Nara]
”Hungry hungry” [Charlotte]
”Alright, I'll prepare some warm dinner first” [Claude]
”And all of you should join us as well!” [Ash]
”Oh boy! Hope you prepare some beer as well!” [Soldier A]
”If you drink one in here, I'll kick you out instantly” [Ash]
”Joking...” [Soldier A]
Well, homunculus aside
”Rean, Elise, Zerolith, Savel, and Charlotte, come upstairs for a while” [Ash]
”””””!?””””” [Rean, Elise, Zerolith, Savel, Charlotte]
”Can we join?” [Singa]
”Next time maybe” [Ash]
”Your Brother just wanted to check on them since they're getting hit by the baddy pretty badly” [Diana]
”I see...” (Was it though) [Farhah]
”Lara, Nara, come eat with us” [Kara]
