Chapter 217: Don’t be useless, okay?
Under the headquarters of Loki Familia, there was a dungeon, a jail with a small space, without a light, all dark.
There, Revis was jailed, kept, drugged to make her weak, and also only fed a small amount of food for a few days.
As Revis never talked and kept quiet, all of them became helpless, so Isao came out and advised them to lock her in a small, dark place.
Instead of being tortured with something physical, Isao thought to torment Revis in the mind.
After all, her mental fortitude and endurance were stronger than everyone had thought, so even if he remained unconscious for a while, she wouldn't say anything, remaining quiet, no matter what kind of torture she received, but what if she received psychological torment? Could she handle it?
"What is it? What did you make, Dian?" Loki asked with a doubt.
"Calm down." Dian only smiled and said, "I haven't tested it, so I am not sure of the effect, but I am sure that it will be successful! By then, I can make more money! Bwahahahaha!"
"..."
"I am sorry for Dian-sama." Airmid apologized awkwardly to everyone.
Still, if someone attracted the most attention, it would be Isao, who sat in a wheelchair and was being pushed by Aiz.
"You don't have to move. I will be the one who is going to move," Aiz said.
"Ah, um." Isao felt awkward by her words, but he didn't bother to say much.
Nevertheless, under the protection of many people, hardly any saw his figures, especially when Aiz even used her wind magic to make them appear invisible.
Frankly, Aiz blamed herself for not staying by his side at that time, but now, it is different. She would be by his side all the time so she could protect him!
"...don't do something reckless again, okay?"
Aiz felt her eyes were wet when she thought she would lose him.
"No."
"..." Aiz.
"If you are in danger like that, then I will do the same thing." Isao held Aiz's hand and said, "But I will try to stay alive. I won't leave you, so you don't have to worry."
"Um."
Those words were enough for her, at least for now.
Soon, they arrived at the location where Revis was locked.
While there were many people, it didn't matter as everyone could trust each other.
How?
It was because they were related to Isao.
If they were related to Isao, they were clear and innocent.
Even Loki didn't think that Isao would be related to Evilus, especially when he almost remained unconscious forever because he used his abilities to protect everyone by using his pink-colored barrier.
Frankly, this ability also made him one of the most important people in the Orario, as he could create a barrier that could block physical attacks and heat.
If Isao's level increased even further, many could imagine that he could create a barrier that blocked the entire Orario, making his position even more important in everyone's heart.
Still, all of those things could be pushed aside later as they had arrived at the prison where the Loki Familia kept Revis.
Usually, criminals would be kept by either Ganesha Familia or the guild. Still, with how powerful Revis was, except for Loki Familia, the only one who could keep her was Freya Familia.
Yet, how could they ask the Freya Familia, who was about to marry, to keep such a dangerous creature?
So, this job could only be left to the Loki Familia.
Frankly, if possible, they should kill Revis directly, but she was their lead to all the hidden danger that enveloped the Orario, so they felt reluctant to kill her.
"Hey, you are there, right? I won't say anything! No matter what!"
The moment they entered the prison, many frowned because of the bad humidity and, more importantly, the smell.
In the small dark space, Revis was kept there, and there wasn't even a single toilet. Even if she was a beautiful woman, it was impossible for her to fight against the biological law, so all of them looked at this woman with a disgusting expression.
Yet, Revis didn't care and kept talking, becoming even more stubborn when she saw them. She knew that the reason why they didn't kill her was because they wanted information from her lips, but how could she say it?
"Is she always this chatty?" Gareth asked with a doubt.
"No one comes, talks, or visits her. She is alone in a small, dark space without knowing when she can return. If she doesn't talk, she will go insane," Isao said.
This was the true horror of this small space cell. Being locked up inside a small space without a single light, feeling extremely cold, and being isolated from anyone would drive anyone into insanity.
If Revis didn't know what they wanted and thought that she was the victor of this confrontation, she would go insane. Even though she was so weak, and she was only given water and food so she wouldn't die, and it was even filled with poison, her mouth was still moving, showing how desperate she was, wishing for someone to talk with her.
"Hahaha... I won't say anything! Even if you torture me, I won't say anything!"
"What will you do?" Finn asked, looking at Isao curiously.
Isao then looked at Dian, and then Dian looked at Finn. "Is she weak?"
"She is." Finn nodded. "At this moment, a normal person should be able to kill her."
"Then, inject this into her." Dian took out a syringe and gave it to Finn.
"This is...?" Finn asked with a doubt.
"Just inject it into her shoulder," Dian said with a smile.
"Okay?" Finn nodded and took the job by himself, injecting the syringe into Revis' shoulder.
"What do you want to do? But no matter what, it is meaningless!" Even if Revis knew that Finn was about to do something, she could do nothing as she was locked in, and her limbs were tied in chains made by Hephaestus. Moreover, with how weak she was, facing Finn, who was healthy and a Level 6, all the resistance was meaningless.
Soon, the liquid inside the syringe was injected into Revis' body by Finn.
Revis, who tried to struggle, somehow became quiet like a puppet.
"Bwahahaha!" Dian laughed, feeling happy that he had succeeded. "As expected, I am god!"
"Let's try it first." Isao looked at Dian speechlessly. "It's not a success if we don't know the result."
"You are right!" Dian nodded, then asked Revis, "What's your name?"
"Revis."
"Are you part of the Evilus?"
"No."
"Then, what are you?"
"I am just following up on an order from her."
"Her?"
"Spirit. She was the one who revived me and turned me into a "creature."
"Oh? What is a "Creature"?"
"It's a being that is created by the Demi Spirit inside the dungeon. We have the body of a monster even though we are humans."
"Oh? Interesting!" Dian wanted to ask more, but Loki grabbed him. "Wait! Wait! What's happening? What did you do?!"
Except for Isao, Airmid, and Dian, all of them were confused.
"Nothing." Dian appeared proud. "I just made a truth serum."
"Truth serum?" All of them understood what it was used for from the name alone.
"This is a serum that makes someone tell the truth no matter what our question is! Bwahahaha! As expected, I am the best!"
"...." Everyone.
While they felt speechless by Dian's act, they had to admit that this god was amazing.
"I asked him to do this before that incident." Isao appeared relieved that he didn't need to do everything by himself.
"....." Everyone.
As expected of Isao, they thought.
"Try to ask the most important thing since it is the first serum. The effect might be weak, and depending on the strength of the target, it might not have any effect."
"I see..." Finn understood everything. "That's why you asked me to make her weak."
"Then, I will rest first. I can leave the rest to you, right?"
"Yes."
If Finn couldn't handle all of this even after Isao had done everything, then could he be called the "Braver"?
Hearing that word, Isao sighed in relief, and at the same time, he decided to go to another world. While he believed that he could defeat Evilus, he wasn't sure what to do with the one who hid behind Evilus.
Even if the Evilus was taken down, Isao knew that this was only the surface.
The real villain was still hiding.
While Isao was confident in his strength, he didn't want to mess up like before, so he decided to go to another world to grow stronger.
Hopefully, his luck didn't disappoint him, so he didn't face any strange problems.
'Sorry, Miya.'
While Isao wanted to visit Miya, especially after her son, Tatsuya had helped him a lot due to the "Elemental Sight" he gained from Tatsuya's DNA, the power he wanted couldn't be found in the world of "Mahouka," and he had to go to another world.
Still, before that, Isao decided to rest since he had to say modifying his brain was tough, so he directly closed his eyes and shut down his body so he could recover faster.
"Isao!"
Yet, for others, they were in panic once again.
