600 The Visit at Aimees House, A Truth that was Yet to be Found (1/2)

Aside from Mark and other individuals awakening as Blood Demons when Chiyo was planted, there was another mystery that in this place that no one had an explanation.

It was the existence of the mutated infected that woke up from a pod from the infected nest in Ninoy Aquino International Airport.

She was the woman that had the name, Aimee.

An infected woman with a gigantic physique with half of her body being tentacles with eyes at the end, even among other mutated infected, her appearance was extraordinary in many ways.

And unlike all the infected that they had encountered, she was the only one that gained consciousness. Furthermore, different from the Monarch Infected that gained consciousness, Aimee was the only one claiming to be the human in her memories.

The strangest thing about her, however, was how her appearance greatly resembled the monster that ended the existence of the planet called Eriellis.

Since Mark gained the alliance, or at least, the cooperation of the Eyes and the Observer, he decided to bring Fourth to Aimee. Considering that they had knowledge about the world, the mystery surrounding Aimee might finally get resolved.

With Mark leading Fourth, they made their way to Aimee's House. It was a large structure south of the base where Chaflar's stable was also located.

Both structures are built side by side for the sake of convenience since both buildings needed large parts to make. At first, Ed, who was leading the construction in the base, was worried that Aimee would not like it. After all, many people would not like it to live beside an animal stable. But like how Aimee lost the embarrassment from not wearing anything at all, she did not mind the location of her house.

The only thing that mattered to Aimee was that she had somewhere to live and take care of the stone that she believed to be her child.

Mark knocked on the door before entering. The structure had two doors, a large one and a smaller one.

Entering the smaller door, Mark and Fourth found Aimee already waiting for them inside. Like how she informed Mei of the potential danger this morning, it seemed that she knew whenever an Eye was around, even though Fourth had already controlled her presence in the surroundings.

The house did not have too much furniture. It was hard to make everything from scratch because of her size. The first priority they made when building the house was the bed that consisted of several thin mattresses lined together in one corner.

And on that bed, Aimee sat with her tentacles coiled around that egg-like stone.

Aimee could not speak like usual and just bowed her head at Mark as greeting. Mark, on the other hand, accepted her greeting before turning to Fourth that was already frozen in shock.

Those words were the first things that came out of Fourth's mouth the moment she came to.

”Speak properly, will you?”

Mark scratched his head. It was unexpected that Fourth would give out such a reaction.

Fourth looked at Mark, her index finger was still frozen, pointed at Aimee.

”Do you know what that is?”

She suddenly asked.

”That's the reason I brought you here. I don't know, and I want to know.”

Mark replied.

Those words from Mark made Fourth speechless. After all, this guy had been collecting things that he knew nothing about.

Fourth turned to Aimee, looking at the woman with confused eyes.

”How should I say this...”

Sure enough, Fourth was troubled. It was not about how to explain, though. What she was thinking about was if she had the authority to explain it.

At her trouble, a bright light shined behind them. Af first, Mark thought that it was the door that they just entered.

But then, although he was right that it was a door, it was definitely not the one that connected the house outside.

Behind them, a door connected to nothing appeared. It was a door white with exquisite design, outlined with shining silver and gold. The center had a pair of wings made of tin and a baseball-sized amethyst in the middle.

For a door to suddenly appear like that was unexpected. Mark turned to Fourth as it seemed that she knew of the door.

The door opened, and a female teenager in with a scholarly aura passed through it.

Mark looked at the woman in all seriousness. There was no doubt that she was an Eye, although unlike Fourth and the others, she came here with her aura already concealed.

Still, the sudden appearance of this girl made Aimee on guard.

After she passed through, she closed the door, and it vanished into thin air.

Before anyone could say anything, the girl bowed her head politely towards Mark.

”Please pardon my sudden arrival. I am Nineteenth, the Embodiment of Interest. I am pleased to be your acquaintance, Master of the Blood Demons of this generation.”

Mark stared at the girl, quite surprised. Also, that title Nineteenth called him was unexpected. And by reflex, he turned to Fourth.

”Why do I feel that you are thinking about something rude?”

Fourth complained as she suddenly felt pain because of that stare from him.

”Well, I have met four Eyes already, and all of you are a troublesome bunch. I did not expect that there would be someone decent among you all.”
