A Little Desire Of Anti - Hero

Arc I - Chapter 8: Seeds

Rion opened his eyes heavily, not knowing how long he had lost consciousness.

‘I ... Where is it?’ rion's mind was full of questions when he realized that he was in a place completely unknown to him.

Rion tries to move but finds that his body is completely immovable. Rion looked at whatever was around him, trying to figure out exactly what he was going through.

Rion's dark gaze, his eyes unable to catch any light made him focus more on his sense of hearing. However, his own ears could only catch a few faint sounds, and he, was completely unable to understand what those sounds contained.

While trying to take a deep breath, Rion realized that he could not breathe properly. His ears now heard the sound of bubbles popping with clear water echoes.

Rion's eyes narrowed instantly as light suddenly entered his eyes. Two men in white robes were watching him. A shout was presumably made by one of the two, before three or four strong-bodied men came, unclear the exact number with Rion's blurred vision.

They lifted Rion up, and now he noticed that he felt a feeling floating in a tube filled with a strange clear liquid. Because he was in this special tube that caused his body odor to disappear, erased entirely.

Shortly after, a beautiful and charming girl arrived. However, Rion could feel the fear in the eyes of the two people turning white. This girl is none other than Seriana.

“How is it?”

“So far very good Miss—“

Hearing this Seriana immediately cut off the words of the person in front of her. “Nona ...? Is that how I am in your eyes? Never mind, continue the report.”

Resisting the nervousness, the person continued according to what Seriana ordered. “As you say, his body is able to handle the initial stage that so far no one has been able to pass through. Conditions so far stable, not much rejection of the subject's body even his body can adapt immediately, but further observation is needed.”

Seriana nodded slowly. Taking a few steps towards Rion's tube, he observed Rion with interested eyes.

This was the reason Seriana asked to come with the Duke to Maves City and look for slaves directly. Because, all this time he could not find a single person who was suitable for the experiment he was doing.

Now Rion is the only ‘kandidat’ that can meet Seriana's wishes. Reversing his body, he gave the command, “Simmediately run the advanced program according to the procedure.”

“Good.”

Without much waiting, the two people did something that Rion meant.

“Ehh ..?” a stupid voice came out from Rion's mouth as he felt a sting that shortly afterwards made his consciousness disappear. However, the voice was inaudible in the ears of others, muffled by the liquid surrounding it.

The last thing Rion saw was the charming smile of the blonde-haired girl before darkness welcomed her back.

After an unknown interval of time, Rion's eyes opened heavily with his consciousness beginning to return. In the last period of time, I don't know how many times he has forcibly lost consciousness.

Looking around, he found his place to be currently unfamiliar. More precisely he didn't even know what kind of place this was, and he couldn't recognize it at all.

A dimly dark place with little illumination, Rion's vision was too blurred with a liquid that had been different from before filling the tube he was in. Trying to move his body, immediately the stung feeling suffered by Rion who came from various mediums that pierced his back.

Rion shouted, but only air bubbles came out of his mouth.

Rion's facial complexion was getting worse, this was what Seriana meant. Previously, Seriana had given Rion's body some material that no living thing should have, and what Rion was experiencing was a reaction of rejection to the material.

The white-robed people of —researchers— are located near Rion, observing every development that Rion goes through in detail.

Rion's current place is a laboratory. More specifically, this was a secret research place built under the fortress of Duke Arcchild's residence that was under Seriana's direct and personal control.

Observing Rion's statistical data during this time, one of the researchers broke out in a cold sweat. “Where did Miss get this kind of monster ..”

Not only was Rion the first party to go through the early stages that had been categorized to extremes by many parties. However, Rion's physical condition made the observing researchers think the child in front of them was a monster.

Whenever Rion approaches a critical condition, without a clear cause his body immediately adapts and resolves that problem before it develops any further, even if it feels impossible.

“Hah .. want to be seen from wherever Miss is scary.”

Reversing her body, she gave another researcher a message before heading to where Seriana was. Intend to report what Seriana wants before.

***

Rion has been able to maintain consciousness after losing consciousness repeatedly, like an insect developing resistance to pesticides. However, after a long time the concept of time itself became unclear to Rion.

In his blurred vision and condition that could not think clearly, Rion noticed something that instantly made his eyes widen.

He saw a familiar figure. Although somewhat hazy, Rion was convinced that it was a familiar figure, the figure of his mother who was always beside him, a figure he thought was gone.

It was seen that Rion's mother was across the room, separated by an opaque glass wall. He was now lying helplessly on a bone-chilling cold metal table. Although Rion wanted to escape, running towards his mother, but he could not with his condition now.

Shortly after, a few foreign figures came in close to Rion's mother. Rion is increasingly rebellious, wanting to save her mother, blocking whatever they want to do to her. However, it was futile as the sight that Rion would never forget took place right before his eyes without the slightest bit being able to resist.

His mother's body seemed to be a toy to them, then dissected after they were satisfied. All blood, flesh, and other organs are separated with blood that begins to paint the surrounding red.

The figure of Mother who was always considered strong by him, now no longer exists.

Distrust, unwillingness, helplessness, as well as despair filled Rion's heart. The negative feelings were more than all the feelings Rion had ever felt during this time. However, immediately his feelings turned into intense anger along with deep hatred.

Rion was angry, hated those who did that to his mother. However, more than that he was very angry and hated himself .. Why can't he do anything? Not just at this moment, at that moment he was unable to do anything.

Rion who lost her home, mother, as well as a creature that she could say to be a friend.

When Rion was destroyed, a voice suddenly whispered, ‘Destroy them ...’

Rion's eyes glared, without any more desire he closed his eyes, hoping that all could end soon.

‘Reply all ... more ... more .... more ... of what they do ...,’ the whisper more resounded louder in Rion's heart.

Rion's eyes open, now the glare has disappeared, replaced by sharp eyes. He had made a decision in his heart, along with the seed of darkness that had begun to be planted.
