Will of chaos

Chapter 149: Murder plan

Pov Layla: 

The master is very objective, even if his plan is good he is killing this Alchemist very fast, this type of person who uses others as experiments deserves to suffer. 

“If it wasn’t for fear of interfering with the master’s plan, I would play a little with this Alchemist so he’ll know how good it is to be at the mercy of someone who wants to harm you.”  (I) 

“I think the master is right to send me along with you.”  (Kira) 

“Fairies are always cruel to their enemies, so never piss off a Fairy, Kira.”  (Byakko) 

“Don’t say that, you were supposed to be on my side, don’t you also want to see this shit die suffering in agony?”  (I) 

Sigh 

“And I’ve always heard that fairies are kind and lovely beings, maybe only Layla is like that isn’t it Byakko?”  (Kira) 

“Don’t be fooled by appearances, Fairies are really cheerful, kind, and kind to most people, they’re simple beings to please and hard to annoy.”  (Byakko) 

“But how much they get angry is worse than the Demons, but I have to say that this Fairy releases her cruel side far more than the others for what little I remember.”  (Byakko) 

“You’re going to make me sad like that, if anyone heard this they’d think I’m a cruel and sadistic monster.”  (I) 

“(But that’s what you’re showing because I already realized that I sent Kira with you.)” (Zenos) 

“Master!”  (I) 

“You should be kinder entering someone’s mind, where is my privacy?”  (I) 

“(Stop joking, you never cared about any of this, you’re just kidding one more time.)” (Zenos) 

“You are not fun.”  (I) 

While I’m talking to Kira, the spirit cat and the master we’re heading to the place of the mission the master gave us, an abandoned building where the shitty Alchemist’s clandestine laboratory is located. 

The master’s plan was very simple, as Byakko and I can be invisible to most people and we are small, we can try to get in by flying slowly through the window crossing the barrier in the windows, after that the rest of the plan is to deal silently and quickly with the Alchemist. 

As soon as we got to the place we see idiots protecting this fucking Alchemist if it were up to me I would kill these idiots too, they must know what this Alchemist is doing and still help protect this worm. 

“Calm down Layla, you’re letting your bloodlust slip away, luckily we’re far away so they haven’t noticed yet, but if you keep going you’re going to ruin the master’s plan.”  (Kira) 

“…” (I) 

“(Calm down Layla, once you’re ready to start the mission.)” (Zenos) 

“Fine.”  (I) 

After taking a few deep breaths I feel calmer, I shouldn’t disappoint the master. 

“I’m ready.”  (I) 

“Then you two can go, Layla will take care of the Alchemist quickly and quietly, you Byakko will look for anything of value nearby.”  (Kira) 

“I’ll share your senses to see what we can find there, then you two will save the Alchemist’s body and anything of value you find in the storage items Layla is guarding with her space magic to get past the barrier.”  (Kira) 

“Don’t worry, I remember the plan, I have five storage items stored, they’re all empty.”  (I) 

“I don’t like doing that, a great spirit like me stealing from criminals, I’d rather be fighting head-on.”  (Byakko) 

“We can’t do that, they’re strong, we’re not going to be able to kill them all quickly and we’re going to get a lot of attention, the criminal organization this Alchemist belongs to is the biggest drug manufacturer in town, so I don’t want them after us.”  (Kira) 

“Alright, let’s go, Byakko.”  (I) 

Sigh 

“Fine, but I’ll have something tasty to eat later.”  (Byakko) 

“I’ll talk to Caryna about it when we get back.”  (Kira) 

Byakko and I fly very slowly to the window, like a fairy I am able to see the barrier that should be invisible, it only covers the windows but doesn’t seem to have an attack power, it is also very thin and weak but seems connected to a device, I can’t see it from the outside but it must be by the window, it must be like Kira said, a device to warn if the barrier is broken. 

I easily pass the barrier along with Byakko, inside I see three shelves with glass bottles of various shapes with colored liquids inside and glass jars with various types of things inside. 

I looked around and saw a small bookcase with some books, I heard a noise from one direction and saw some cages where people were trapped, I saw two men who had spots on their bodies, there was also an old woman and a young man who had empty eyes and they were drooling, I also saw some children, some were dead and some had wounds on their bodies or blemishes, the vision was horrible and I almost released my bloodlust again. 

I try to calm down and see Byakko beside me trying to do the same, we both turn to the Alchemist who was standing reading a book. 

The moment I saw the Alchemist I felt a great bloodlust in my head that didn’t belong to me, I never felt anything like this before, even I was immobilized for a second, I knew the master was furious, he was seeing everything through of my eyes. 

“(Calm down master, you are distracting me.)” (I) 

“(…)” (Zenos) 

I feel the bloodlust slowly subside and then disappear. 

“(Sorry about that, I lost control for a second.)” (Zenos) 

“(Go ahead with the plan, use your space element magic to create a barrier around this bastard’s head so the air doesn’t enter to kill him asphyxiated.)” (Zenos) 

“(You also have my permission to use an electrical discharge on him while trying to choke him, this will prevent him from using any magic or ability to free himself or call for help.)” (Zenos) 

“All right” (I) 

I nod to Byakko who starts looking around as I approach from behind the fat Alchemist. 

“I need to make this drug more addictive without increasing the side effects, I don’t want those who use my drugs to die too quickly, I want them alive to keep buying my drugs to death, ha ha hahaha…” (Alchemist) 

“… … …” (Alchemist) 

While the Alchemist was talking a lot of useless things I got really close to him from behind, the moment he started laughing I create a spatial barrier around his head, now he won’t be able to scream or breathe as his head is isolated within this barrier. 

It was funny to see her expression of surprise, it took him a while to notice the barrier around his head, he only noticed when it started to get hard to breathe, this is a great advantage of space magic, it is difficult to perceive with just eyes or ears. 

When he tried to bring his hand to his face that’s when he realized there was a barrier around his head, it was funny to see him trying to hit the barrier with his hands uselessly, but I couldn’t risk him running to the door or making a knocking noise on something, so I focused my Thunder element on my hand and held onto his back. 

Zizzizzzi! 

It was funny watching this despicable fat man thrashing on the floor with a desperate face, in a few minutes he stopped moving completely, at the master’s request I went to the Alchemist’s chest and put my ear to hear his heartbeat, after confirming that I had no beats I took out a storage item and put his body away, but first I had to take out two storage items he was using and used my space magic to put the three storage items away. 

After that, Byakko and I started stealing everything of value and putting it inside the storage items we brought, unfortunately, there was no money in this lab but we took all the books, materials, tools, bottles, and jars in the lab. 

Byakko and I looked at each other and then at the people trapped in the cages not knowing what to do. 

“(Master, what should I do with these people?)” (I) 

I could feel him seeing them through my vision, so I waited for his response. 

“(His eyes of his are dead, I don’t see a trace of will in them, even with the person who did this to them dying in front of them nobody shows a reaction.)” (Zenos) 

“(I can’t do anything for unwilling people, kill them to end their suffering at least.)” (Zenos) 

I could feel the master’s sadness when speaking this order, I sympathize with these people but what the master says is true, they surrendered to their suffering, this is the easiest and least painful path that I chose when I was transformed into an abomination, their hearts and minds have been broken and in that state, they are in death is a blessing. 

“(It will be a quick death, I promise.)” (I) 

“< Ice Needles >” (I) 

I used a spell that I trained last week, I made an ice needle for each person and aimed at their heads, then fired, these people didn’t try to dodge or scream, it felt like I was shooting needles at wooden puppets. 

My ice needles hit the immobile targets and pierced their heads, they must be dead from this. 

I look around angrily at this Alchemist, but I have nowhere to take that anger out. 

“(I know you’re angry, so you can blow up this lab if you want, but get out of there fast.)” (Zenos) 

“(Thank you master.)” (I) 

The two elements I learned to control the fastest were fire and ice, so I’m going to use an explosion spell in this shitty lab. 

“< Explosive sphere >” (I) 

As a Fairy I don’t need to create magic circles to shape and control mana, I can do this directly, so I raise my hand and gather a lot of Fire Mana in a sphere and let it float in the room, it will float for a few. seconds before approaching the ground slowly, as soon as it touches the ground it will explode throwing fire in all directions. 

After that I leave the sphere inside and take Byakko out the window through the barrier, then we head towards Kira. 

“So, is it over?”  (Kira) 

“Yes, unfortunately, the Alchemist’s death was very peaceful, I have to teach the master to be more cruel.”  (I) 

“More cruel? Wasn’t he the one who ordered you to kill those people in the cages?”  (Byakko) 

“That wasn’t cruel, it was mercy.”  (I) 

“She’s right Byakko, we are unable to rescue each person in trouble, and getting those people out would be difficult, we would also have to find a way to cure them, in the end, they would be proof of what we did here today, the organization that is behind this Alchemist will want to investigate this and we can leave no traces.”  (Kira) 

“Besides, as the master himself said, these people had already given up, not a reason to waste time with someone who has already lost the will to live.”  (I) 

Byakko didn’t say anything on the way back, he understood what we said, but for him, it’s still hard to accept, I can understand him, Spirits and Fairies have a natural instinct to protect children, but there was nothing to do when their will to live if went out.
