Absolute Depravity: Reincarnated with a lustful System

Chapter 121 121 - Cleaning Up On The Mess

?

"And then you barged into the minotaur king's room, that's all I know," explaining everything to Haruki, Kane turned his gaze to the girl laying down on the ground. "Now just let her go, I've told you everything."

His mind, scanning through everything he'd been through because of Mariya, wouldn't allow him to just offer her freedom. Directing his hand toward the unconscious girl, Haruki dropped her into a portal filled with tentacles as well as a massive hoard of greater demonic spies.

"Hey!" Trying to break free of the chains, Kane pulled onto the chains. "Where the hell did you send her?!"

"Do not…" Turning to Kane, Haruki's eyes were bleeding out blood. "Yell out to me again. If you do, she'd be dead before you can blink your eyes" 

Confining his rage through Kane's explanation of the situation has had a visceral effect on Haruki's body. And it wasn't just his eyes that were affected, his mind, his body, and his very soul had conformed into a dismal place.

'I need to take off some steam before I end up killing someone recklessly.' At first, he glanced up at Kane, however, judging from his compliance so far, he was too good of an asset to kill off without a good reason. 'The monsters…'

Looking at the goblin queen bound in chains, he wanted to kill her for sport, but then the queen of slime started muttering something and woke up from her slumber. Rubbing her eyes like a drowsy kid, she blinked her eyes a few times before looking around to figure out what was happening.

"Shit, this bitch!" Cursing out loud, the goblin queen glanced sideways at the slime crawling out of the giant flower pod trap. 

"Do you not like her? She's a monster too," Haruki asked, looking right at the goblin queen.

"What?" The casual tone in his voice left the queen perplexed.

"Then you don't have to deal with her anymore," holding his hand stretched towards the drowsy queen of slime, he sprang forth a magic circle. "Dark ice spear, emperor of void, dark light!"

Combining his system skill with magic spells, a spear of dark ice loaded with void essence as well as the energy-drawing effect of dark light, shot through Haruki's hand and stabbed the slime queen all over her body.

"Where am I-" Before she could mumble out her question properly, the spear of pure darkness consumed her soul and stored it inside.

Shuddering at the terrifying yet effective use of mortal abilities, everyone except his servants were no longer as inclined to set even a foot in his direction. 

"Riley, take the spear, we can experiment with the soul inside later," after a brief gaze at Riley, Haruki shifted his attention back to the goblin queen. "As for you."

Walking up closer to her, he reached into a portal and took out the green necklaces he'd taken from the minotaurs a while back. Presenting it to her, he let her body off the chains so she could take it into her own hands.

"Do you know what this is?" Wanting to know if she could be of any use to him, he urged her to take a good look at it.

A bit fidgety from him killing another monster right beside her, she gulped the heavy feeling in her throat and began examining the necklace.

"Y-yeah, I know…" Glancing up at him, she nodded fervently. "It's an anti-teleportation necklace, plenty of high-ranking monster guards wear these so they don't get teleported away from their station."

'She could be useful in dealing with other intelligent monsters.'  Concluding that she was worth the trouble, Haruki opened up a portal under her feet that led to a room filled with tentacles. 'I will still need to break her mind as I did with Margarette, but until then those tentacles must be fine.'

With Mariya out of his sight, Haruki could think clearer, but his thirst for revenge had yet to be quenched. In his mind, he could imagine a thousand ways to toy with her, however, before he could indulge in such joy there was something yet to be done.

So long having silently witnessed the demon kill the slime queen and send the other into a pocket dimension, Kane kept on struggling through the chain, but the effect of hypnosis was still dampening his vigor.

"I'm done with this form for now," undoing the female succubus form, Haruki turned back into Arnold. 

Snapping his fingers, he undid Kane's bind. Falling on his feet, Kane pulled himself up from the ground. His eyes fixed on Haruki's back, were shot with blood as his mind kept urging him to rush him. Betraying his instincts he knew better than to act on it and get himself killed without achieving anything.

'Besides, he has those other demons with him too.' Grazing over Asuka and the rest, Kane quickly brought his attention back to Haruki.

"And what the fuck are you gonna do with me?" Already expecting the same treatment as the other two, Kane braced himself for whatever came his way.

"You can go," Haruki's reply surprised him beyond reason.

Summoning a single demonic spy, Haruki used Emperor of void to trap it inside a necklace. Throwing the winged necklace towards Kane, it flew towards him by flapping its wings. Shocking him even more, the necklace put itself around him before settling down as if lifeless.

"Wear that every second of the day, if you take it off I'll butcher that girl," walking towards his servants, Haruki held up his hand and waved. "I'll contact you when I need you for something, until then, I'm watching your every step."

Still, shell-shocked by the events of the day, Kane kept a stern watch over Haruki's back. Regardless of his promises, he couldn't believe that a demon would let him walk off alive without even attempting to kill him.

'Contact me? What is he plotting and how come a demon can be so methodical?' He wondered, watching Haruki and the rest disappear through yet another portal.
