Chapter 84

"You mean those country folk? Outsiders? They... they're all lowly people. What does it matter if they die?!"

Arya understood what Svarog meant, but instead of repenting for her current experience being the same as theirs back then, she took it for granted and expressed her values.

"Those lowly bastards are dead, so be it. How can you compare me to those commoners? I am a nobleman!!"

[Outcasts... nobles...]

[In line with the class nature of feudal rule...]

However, in my eyes, there is no distinction in the identity of human beings.

More importantly... Clara doesn't like you. Now, begin the elimination process.

Svarog's mechanical eyes flashed a few times, then he didn't waste any more time and reached out to grab her skull.

"No, don't kill me, I don't want to die, I don't want to die yet..."

Feeling the pain of her head being gripped tightly, Arya's eyes welled up with tears. She tried to struggle, but it was all in vain, and her eyes were filled with despair.

[Destruction executed.]

The enormous iron hand gripped down forcefully, and amidst the splattering of blood, Arya's voice abruptly ceased.

On the other side, as the screams completely disappeared, Clara slowly walked out of the house, only to be met with corpses scattered all over the ground and a strong, pungent smell of blood.

This made Clara feel a little uncomfortable, but she didn't avoid it.

They carefully avoided the filthy blood and foam and walked into the courtyard.

The mansion was eerily quiet at this moment; not a sound could be heard...

Clara was briefly lost in thought as she gazed at the bright moon in the sky.

Although these people deserved to die, and although Mr. Svarog had done it on her behalf, Clara remained somewhat silent.

Such a bloody scene, even though more people died in the last world, didn't leave a specific impression, so it wasn't as intense as it is now.

Even if she's not used to it, she has to get used to it.

It's because she was born into this world.

It was destined to be bloody from the very beginning...

At this point, Svarog, having completely completed his cleanup plan, returned to Clara's side. Interestingly, all the bloodstains on Svarog's body had disappeared.

"Mr. Svarog..."

Clara walked up to Svarog and hugged his steel body.

[What's wrong, Clara?]

Svarog carefully placed his hand on Clara, afraid of hurting her.

"... nothing."

Clara shook her head, not revealing what was on her mind, and then asked Svarog how things were going!

[The residence has been thoroughly cleaned, and data analysis has revealed no signs of other human activity within its walls.]

"Why?"

Clara was taken aback by this answer.

Does that mean everyone here is dead?

However, there's nothing to worry about. Just as the Night Raid Raiders said, this once prosperous capital is nothing but a corrupt hell on earth. The so-called nobles and powerful are nothing but demons and monsters in human skin.

These guys deserved to die...

Perhaps the original empire had powerful nobles who were wholeheartedly devoted to the people, but after the ministers took control of the government and the Young Emperor took the throne, he eliminated all those officials who were dedicated to the country and its people.

The assassin organization under the minister's command exists for this purpose.

By now, those who have no influence over the ministers and his own people are almost all left standing in the court. Even the great general of the empire is merely a corrupt and rigid adherence to the rules, turning a blind eye to the actions of the ministers.

"Mr. Svarog, have you found where the dungeon is?"

Clara stopped thinking about it and started asking about the dungeon.

Perhaps Tatsumi's two close friends were already dead, but she still wanted to confirm it.

Based on existing data analysis, 90% of the dungeon is located in the back hills of the mansion...

Clara, those people are most likely... lifeless.

Svarog roughly pinpointed the location, but he felt there was no need to go. Those two should already be dead, and going there would only cause Clara to see those horrific scenes and suffer.

"No, Clara wants to see it with her own eyes."

Clara shook her head; she needed to confirm it herself.

Okay, come with me.

Seeing Clara's resolute expression, Svarog did not try to stop her again; it was a good thing that she could have her own ideas.

Following the direction they had determined, Svarog led Clara toward the back of the mansion. By then, it was already dark, with only the faint moonlight illuminating the ground.

Clara followed Svarog along the tree-lined path to the back of the mansion, where a small grove of trees and dense bushes grew on the hillside behind the mansion, and the surroundings were very quiet.

At this time of year, such a place should be teeming with insects and birds, but here there is not a sound, a deathly silence that seems eerily strange.

Clara didn't even know why she felt a chill run down her spine; a cold shiver rose from her back, making her shudder. She quickly followed Svarog closely behind.

We've arrived. This is it.

Not long after, Svarog stopped moving.

Clara, looking around distractedly, almost bumped into Svarog.

"Have we arrived yet?"

Clara quickly snapped out of her daze and looked at the building in front of her. What appeared before her was a place that resembled a warehouse.

It's covered in rust, looks quite old, and the walls are even covered in ivy.

Logically, there shouldn't be any danger here anymore. Clara hesitated for a moment, then started walking towards the warehouse.

Then, in a faint, indistinct sound, the sound grew louder the closer one got to the warehouse.

Clara seemed hesitant, as if she had thought of something, and a chill ran down her spine.

Considering the scenes depicted in the anime, the situation there might not be any better than what you see on the dark web.

Chapter 20 grants all sentient beings their desires.

Clara stood at the warehouse door, and a faint sound from inside reached her ears clearly; it seemed to be the agonizing cries of someone on the verge of death.

"Are there still people alive?"

Are Sayo and Ieyasu still alive?

However, when Clara tried to push open the warehouse door, she found it was locked with chains and could not be opened at all.

So he turned to Svarog and asked for his help.

"Help me, Mr. Svarog!"

[Make way, Clara.]

Svarog approached the gate, and after moving Clara away from it, the merciless iron hand seized the chain and snapped it with a gentle pull.

Then the warehouse door was opened with a teeth-grinding sound.

Clara went inside, but when she saw everything in the warehouse, her eyes widened suddenly, her pupils contracted, and she stared in disbelief at what was happening before her.

The horrific scene inside the warehouse sent chills down the girl's spine.

It challenges our values and beliefs as human beings.

Inside the warehouse were many iron cages, neatly arranged. The cages were rusty and covered in dark red bloodstains, emitting a nauseating stench.

And inside these cages were people.

They were naked, covered in wounds, not a patch of skin was unscathed, emaciated and withered, their faces lifeless and numb.

A few individuals are indeed alive, but they have gone mad.

He kept howling in pain, repeatedly banging his head against the iron cage, even as it drew blood.

In the center of the warehouse, all sorts of torture instruments were displayed, enough to send chills down one's spine.

The instruments of torture were covered in dark red marks, dried blood. Some were still dripping with blood, emanating a stench of blood, suggesting they had been used recently.

Beside the instruments of torture, there were severed limbs and corpses scattered everywhere, laid out haphazardly, emitting a repulsive stench of decay.

As Clara watched these things with suppressed emotions, she suddenly felt something drip onto the ground in front of her. The girl subconsciously looked up, and her crimson pupils immediately contracted.

She discovered that more than a dozen people were hanging from the ceiling of the warehouse.

These people were covered in wounds, their flesh torn and bleeding profusely, some even revealing their bare bones. They had all died from torture.

Are you alright, Clara?

"I... I..."

Clara took a few steps back, placed her right hand on her chest, and felt very uncomfortable and out of place.

Although she was mentally prepared, witnessing such a horrific scene still made her feel nauseous.

I feel like I'm about to throw up everything I ate before.

She had already been disgusted by accidentally clicking on a link to the dark web out of curiosity, but compared to this, those things were nothing.

At this moment, he even felt an urge to think that he shouldn't have let Mr. Svarog do it, and that he should have done the killing himself.

Aria's entire family deserves to die!

This family's true nature is to lure outsiders to their home with sweet words, then subject them to all sorts of cruel tortures they crave, and torment them until they die.

However, even Aria's family was just an ordinary family in the darkness of the entire capital. Many more cruel scenes were playing out in this place every moment.

This is the darkness of the capital city, a living hell.

Demons and monsters in human skin roam freely and arrogantly. If Heaven is powerless to punish evil, we will vanish into the darkness.

Clara now wholeheartedly agrees with the declaration of Night Raid.

"Mr. Svarog, could you please rescue those who still have a chance of survival?"

After calming herself down, Clara couldn't stand it anymore and turned to Svarog for help.

If this is Clara's request...

Without wasting words, Svarog summoned the mechanical arm and destroyed the cages one by one, rescuing those who still showed signs of life.

Although they still had a sliver of breath left, they were living a life worse than death, barely recognizable as human.

Looking at these suffering people, the sweet dew of Bailu alone cannot cure them; they need Abundance power.

Clara searched through the Light Cone she possessed and found that most of them were related to destruction or Preservation, and there weren't many Abundance.

They do possess Abundance treasures such as branches of the Jianmu and the Immortal Divine Fruit, but they cannot possibly take such things out.

Fortunately, she found a suitable one among a large number of four- Light Cone.

The Light Cone is a fragment of Clara and Natasha's Remembrance, but it actually belongs to the Light Cone of Abundance Path.

The Same Mood

The Light Cone described the girl as injured, clinging tightly to a stopped machine, her pockets filled with various spare parts she had found. She quickly took the girl back to the clinic and treated her wounds.

Sweat dripped down her cheeks, and although the girl didn't say a word, her hands never stopped moving.

The doctor knew that at that moment, the girl's eyes were only on the machine, just as she herself was facing a patient waiting for treatment. Therefore, she didn't offer any words of comfort or remind her to be more careful in the future; she simply sat beside the girl, quietly keeping her company.

If Natasha is a doctor for humans, then Clara is a doctor for mechanical beings. It's only natural that this Light Cone could become Light Cone of Abundance.
