章 50: Chapter 49: I'm in fucking trouble
When I returned to the underground floor with Kaede I looked for Mikoto to speak.
As our relationship became close, Mikoto described to me the operation of Black Label and its members, the most interesting were two women, Yuko Sagiri and Sayo Hitsugi.
Mikoto did not want to talk about their appearances, she is worried that I might be interested in them since I have been labeled as a lustful dog that will chase any beautiful woman who sees what is not entirely an exaggeration, but in my defense, it is for the greater good.
Yuko and Sayo are interesting since according to Mikoto both women are above normal humans. Yuko is a sword master who can cut through steel with her sword and Sayo is a woman with super strength who wields heavy machine guns as if they were toy weapons.
Before I thought that this world had no future since mutants would end up eradicating humanity, but it seems that there are people with high-level talents.
The important thing is that Mikoto mentioned that Sayo was rescued from a group that was doing human experiments to create super soldiers, although they did not gather enough evidence, Black Label thinks that the organization that experimented with Sayo and the pharmaceutical company that approached the Japanese government are related.
The company is called Umbrella, it started as an American company that grew until it became world-renowned, there are rumors that they got involved with the design of biological weapons and human experimentation.
Maybe Umbrella is the villain in this world, but I still need to investigate, the important thing is that Kaede may be one of Umbrella's resulting experiments, as for how she got to this school is something I must discover, it will be a problem if there are many Kaede's wandering the city.
After arriving at the base I left Kaede with Rin. The precocious little girl can be troublesome, but she is a miniature version of Izumi so I can trust that she won't cause big problems.
.
SURE? SURE? SURE............
.
Yes, I believe. At least I can trust that she won't betray me.
I took Mikoto to a separate room to discuss a serious topic.
"The girl I brought, what do you think of her?" - I spoke in a solemn voice as this is important.
"Nice prey for a lolicon like you, but that's not what you want to know, right?" Mikoto tried to joke and then showed a serious expression. - "Those horns must be real, is it a malformation?"
"I don't know, but I can assure you of two things, she is not human and she is strong" - My words made Mikoto reflect.
Since I started training Mikoto, Saeko, and the others in the use of Ki they had a better understanding of my strength.
Ki is versatile and powerful power when mastered, after making sure Mikoto would accept me even if I am a monster I commented that the explosion that occurred when we escaped from his school was my fault.
In this world, only Mikoto and Saeko know my strength, Mikoto because I became a little attached to her and Saeko because she is my main disciple so I explained the full potential of Ki to her. In fact, Saeko has shown herself to be talented, and if I stimulated her potential maybe she can rival Shigure when it comes to innate talent.
Mikoto thought about it and then asked seriously. - "Compared to you, how strong is she?"
"I'm not entirely sure, but at least in brute force she should be at my level or a little stronger, Kaede doesn't seem to know her own power so she has enormous potential without awakening." - Many factors determine combat power, not just brute force.
Mikoto took a deep breath as her expression turned serious. - "She's dangerous?"
"Yes" - I nodded.
The fact that her invisible arms emit hostility despite Kaede being harmless makes me think that the girl's power hides a troublesome secret.
"I don't mean to sound cruel, but is it okay to bring her? If she possesses strength like yours then calling her a monster is not an exaggeration "- Mikoto spoke with a bit of irony.
"Oh, am I a monster now?" - I smiled, she is not wrong.
"Monster? You are a fucking beast! It's still hard for me to walk because of what you did to me last night! " Mikoto pouted.
"And who asked for more?" - It's always fun to see Mikoto's angry and embarrassed face.
We both laughed a little to ease the tension. That's why I like talking to Mikoto, when I think for myself I tend to fall into a spiral of pessimism that makes me paranoid, talking about my problems with someone else I can see other points of view and not exaggerate with paranoia.
Why did I not do that?
.
YOU REJECT PEOPLE YOU REJECT PEOPLE YOU REJECT PEOPLE YOU REJECT PEOPLE...............
.
Certain. Ah whatever, this is nice.
Mikoto and I kept talking to think about what to do with Kaede but a sense of danger put us on our alert.
A subtle thirst for blood was beginning to engulf the underground floor, it started out small and was growing at high speed like a sleeping beast that was beginning to awaken full of fury.
I didn't say a word and ran out of the room while covering my body with Ki and preparing to fight.
When I got to the source of the bloodlust I found the survivors arguing while Rin protected Kaede, the problem is that Kaede was the sleeping monster.
"What's going on?" - I asked as I hurried to pick up Kaede.
This is bad, I saw Kaede's eyes and felt that living was troublesome. Kaede was no longer in those eyes, just a crazed beast.
I moved my hand to my pocket and took out a surgical needle that I took from Shizuka's medical supplies, it is normally used for suturing, but I don't have acupuncture needles so it was the best I had.
I put Ki on the needle and in a quick movement that other people didn't notice I stabbed into the back of Kaede's neck to force her to sleep.
Kaede fell asleep in my embrace as the thirst for blood disappeared. I don't know if the arms have the intelligence of their own so I had to use a bit of Hamon to caress Kaede's head and reassure her.
On the way to the underground floor, I studied Kaede's body a bit with ki pulses and she mostly has a human body with the only difference being her horns. The real difference is that the horns are connected to the nervous system which stimulates brain activity so their abilities could be psychic powers similar to telekinesis.
I tried to study Kaede's brain activity while listening to the drama of the girls, it didn't matter who was to blame or what had happened, then I'll take care of that group of brats, the important thing is to get Kaede out of here.
"If they dislike monsters so much I will go with Kaede" - I said as I turned around, I have to get Kaede out, her brain is strong and she is trying to wake up, or rather a second personality in Kaede is trying to wake up.
I don't know how to explain it, but there are two different neural activities working at the same time in Kaede's brain, this goes beyond the split personality, there is something asleep inside Kaede.
I decided to leave the place, Rin or someone else will take over, I don't care, Kaede is the priority.
I walked away from the group and met Mikoto, she looked at Kaede seriously as her combat experience gave her good instincts to detect mortal danger.
"Will you get rid of her?" - Mikoto asked with a complicated expression, Kaede is a girl so she wants to take care of her, but she will not risk the lives of the other survivors either.
"I will try to solve it, that no one bothers me. When the rest of the group arrives tell them to wait for me" - I went to the furthest room from the place, closed the door, and obstructed it with a Ki cover.
Just in case I put Ki on the walls of the room in case she has to fight Kaede.
I laid Kaede on a futon, put her on her back while she propped her head up with a cushion so as not to move the needle on the back of her neck.
I took out several needles and pressed the acupuncture points of the heart and lungs, if things get out of control I can force a heart attack.
I started to focus on the condition of her brain and worried, her brain activity is similar to mine since I got Madness with the difference that I can control my Insanity while Kaede is losing control.
I risked attracting other infected and started using Hamon to regulate Kaede's mind but it didn't work, Kaede's problem is similar to mine but different at the same time.
.
BITE HER BITE HER.......
.
What?
.
BITE HER BITE HER.......
.
Madness and I share a bond even closer than the one I have with Navi so I understood what Madness wanted, Kaede's blood.
I was running out of options so I pulled a needle from Kaede's chest and licked the blood from her.
[New addition to the Race: Diclonius]
[Unawakened bloodline has consumed the Diclonius bloodline]
[Race: Unawakened Lineage (2,001%)> (4.2%)]
[New optional title: King Diclonius
Accept: YES / NO]
To accept.
[Title King Diclonius (50%): Come with your stallion!
There can only be one king in this species, only the king can reproduce naturally with female Diclonius so female Diclonius and derived species will be attracted to their king while male Diclonius and derived will be hostile against the king to steal the title ]
[Effects: +70 affection, +100 lust, +100 loyalty on Diclonius females and derived when they have been tamed]
[Demerits: User will feel hostility against genetically weak humanoid species]
I took a deep breath and tried to calm myself, I had the sudden urge to go out and attack the survivors including Mikoto but I resisted it by biting the inside of my cheek until I ripped off a piece of meat.
[Will: Unyielding (50%)> (70%)]
[Skills: Will of Steel (40%)> (80%)]
Now I understand why Kaede went crazy, the Diclonius instincts are too strong, even my Madness is not as dominant as these instincts. Speaking of Madness, he's been laughing since I drank the blood.
[Energies: Insanity (9.5%)> (25%)]
Motherfucker!
.
KEIKAKU DOORI KEIKAKU DOORI.........
.
Normally I would give myself a fit of rage for being fooled, but to some extent I'm thankful, at least now I don't have to kill Kaede.
I sighed and spoke in a serious voice. - "Kaede, calm down, you can't kill if I don't order it"
Kaede's brain stopped lighting up like a Christmas tree and the hostility disappeared. I was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief.
I took out Kaede's needles and woke her up. With the title of King Diclonius, I got some information about the Diclonius race and it can be summed up in that they are a species born to destroy humanity, how troublesome.
The Diclonius have a genetic instinct that makes them hostile towards weaker humanoid beings, they are the result of natural selection and, as in nature, the Diclonius seeks to eliminate the weaker species to become the new dominant species.
They have a psychic ability that allows them to create additional limbs that are invisible since they are psychic energy, possess great strength and durability, and can even go years without food despite feeling hungry.
They are sterile and normally reproduce by infecting women with their invisible arms which I will call vectors, women beget Diclonius and women are almost always born.
Diclonius males do not have vectors and are not even fertile so they are genetic errors, only King Diclonius can inseminate female Diclonius and only Queen Diclonius can get pregnant normally with males of other species but her children with King Diclonius would be a higher way of life. As for the queen, it is Kaede.
Either the damn plot armor is playing a bad joke on me or I was actually cursed by a pedophile deity.
Why? Because Kaede will be attracted to me since I am the perfect match for her on a genetic level.
I decided not to think about this shit, the worst-case scenario I will convince her to be patient until she turns 16.
Kaede woke up, when she saw me she jump to hug me while she cried. - "I'm a monster! I knew it, I am a horrible monster that everyone hates! "
I sighed and stroked her head. - "Kaede calm down, Rin and the girls protected you, they want to be your friends, weren't you defended by Mimi?"
Kaede kept crying, but she calmed down a bit. - "True ... But the other girls hate me, they saw me as a monster ... They are afraid of me ..."
"Kaede, I want you to be honest, did you want to hurt them?" - Kaede lowered her head as if she felt guilty. - "I'm not upset, I just want to know if you wanted to hurt them"
"Yes ..." - Kaede's voice was low.
"What did you want to do to them?" - I asked as she continued stroking her head.
"... Kill them ..." - Kaede trembled.
"And how did you plan to do it?" - I kept taking care of her.
"I don't know, I felt like I could do it, if I wanted it, her bodies would split" - Kaede looked scared and confused. - "I heard a voice, she said that I should hurt those who hurt me, that I am a monster and monsters hurt others"
Great, at this rate I can start a schizophrenic club.
"Will you abandon me?" - Kaede looked at me with extreme sadness.
Girl, I just agreed to fall into a Madness trap, I'm fighting the desire to kill those around me, I have a fucking migraine, and I'm sure I got into some troublesome shit. Do you think I'll leave you after all the trouble you caused me?
I'll put your little ass to work to make sure you're worth it, even if it's child exploitation I'll make you work until you pass out.
"I promised you that I would stay with you as long as you were an obedient girl, although it was a bad situation, the worst did not happen so I will let it pass this time" - My hand raised Kaede's bangs and I gave her a kiss on the forehead. - "If you are a good girl I will stay by your side, I will always be by your side"
I won't let you back away, even if you want to.
"Nn" - Kaede nodded vigorously as she smiled.
"Now let's go back. One more thing, you can only attack others if I allow it or if they physically attack you, if someone insults you ignore them and tell Rin or me" - I spoke seriously, just in case I used authority like King Diclonius or it will be troublesome if Kaede makes a massacre.
Kaede nodded and took my hand, I decided to ignore Kaede's feverish gaze. I can swear her pupils turned to hearts for a moment.
Is it a skill of her species? How weird.
It was late, I think I was 6 hours fighting against the desire to murder everyone in the place so combining it with the time of Kaede's treatment we were there for 8 hours, I was starving.
Now I have to put up with the idiot Navi, the stupid Madness, and the new instinctual desire to kill all human beings. My head hurts, I want to hug Shizuka and Nao.
Ah, living is so troublesome.
