Leave Me Alone, Heroines!

The men couldn't believe their eyes. A few moments ago, they were going on with their normal procedures of getting some soul stones from the caged children they had, and suddenly, a small kid barged in with a sword in his hand.

Most of them assumed that he was a runaway but soon scratched that idea since his clothes were way too extravagant for him to be one of those small prisoners.

But, even if he was a kid, they knew that he was not good news so one of them, who was in the far back of the room where it was harder for Acht to see him, tried to tap on a certain thing in his pocket.

However, Acht had already seen what he was intending to do and immediately made a gesture with his hand. In response, the man was sent flying like a ragdoll and smashed against the metallic wall making him crack a few bones.

They were all unawakeners so it was easy to harm them.

As they saw how their friend was now a useless sack of flesh and blood, their faces contorted greatly. Forget about this boy being good news, he was a goddamn nightmare.

So, without any other choice, they tried to scream for help.

"Oh no, you don't," Acht said and closed the metallic door and blocked all noises that came from the inside to come out.

"Don't worry though, I will deal with the other bastards in this laboratory just like how I will deal with you." He cracked his neck and started walking slowly towards them.

He wasn't intending to let them die so easily, he wanted to make them feel the hellish pain they made these children go through possibly every single day.

The men scattered and ran to the other side of the room as they searched for anything useful they could fight with.

One of them found his small and bloodied surgical knife while another held on to a small hammer used for testing reflexes. They weren't even considered weapons, but they had no other choice.

But, one of them who was the man who brought the two kids didn't search for a weapon. Instead, he ran to his unconscious friend and tried to grab the alarm signal button from his pocket. He was the only one that had it so they could only take it from him.

Obviously, Acht saw all of that and immediately channeled his soul force and made the unconscious man fly to the other side of the room, hitting another wall and breaking multiple other bones.

"Fuck! Help me out!!!" The man shouted and tried to throw something at Acht who for some reason kept standing still in his place, not bothering to move closer to them or attack them.

The other three gulped a mouth full of saliva and looked at each other with clear fright in their hollow eyes. Attacking that small kid was akin to a quick trip to the graveyard. It was simply out of the question.

But, since it was an order from their boss, they thought of another solution and tried to throw everything their hands could fall on at him.

So, with shouts of despair and a healthy dose of adrenaline to make them lose any type of logical thinking process, they started attacking him with the surgical equipment they had in the room.

They were all very expensive, costing tens and even hundreds of gold coins for each single one of them, but they still threw them at him in hope of hitting him.

"That's your best attempt at saving your own sorry asses?" He muttered as he dodged a glass tube with some liquid in it.

Then, he jumped to the side to let another medical chair fly by his side.

Then, with a small leap in the air, Acht reached the men who were cornered like lab rats while sweating profusely.

"Oh come on, get closer to each other. Strengthen your bonds." He then applied triple the gravity on them, making them get squished into the corner like a piece of clay.

"Ugghhhhh?!!!" The men felt their bodies being smashed against each other as their bones made unhealthy clicking sounds.

Especially the one who was closest to the wall, he had to suffer the weight of 4 men along with triple the normal gravity. So, with a shriek of pain and his eyes widening like two balloons, his ribs turned gradually into shards of bones that swam inside his body.

"No! Get off me!!!" He tried to push them but they were also getting pushed back so it was nothing but a futile résistance from his side.

"UGGHHHHHHHHHHHH?!!"

His pain intensified when he felt the bits and pieces of his broken ribcage poke his lungs and heart. They created holes in those organs and emptied them of blood and air.

Then, with one last scream of help, he lost his energy and closed his eyes, never to open them again.

"One down. 4 more to go." Said loudly.

He seemed like some grim reaper coming to harvest their souls in the most painful way possible.

Acht then moved on to the closest one and grabbed him by his neck. The man squirmed like a fish and tried to punch Acht in the face but ended up hitting thin air.

Then, he dragged the man by the neck and threw him at the glass window. After that, he grabbed his head again and smashed it against the wall. He used enough force to make him feel maximum pain while retaining his consciousness.

He then kept hitting his head again and again while the man shrieked like a pig getting slaughtered.

The others watched the horrifying scene and their blood froze in their veins. They knew they were about to suffer the same, if not a higher, level of torture by Acht.

The only one who didn't completely lose it was their superior who came back with the kids. He stood up slowly on his feet and tried to sneak his way to the man that had the alarm button.

However, Acht was already aware of it but he still kept dealing with what was at hand while letting the man get closer and closer to his goal.

When he was close enough, Acht made the same gesture and made the unconscious man fly to the other side of the room, hitting another wall and breaking who knows how many other bones left intact in his body.

"FUCCKKKK!!!" The man cursed with all his might and ran to the door. He was aware that Acht was playing with them as if they were some baby dolls, taking his time to torture their souls as much as he could.

So, as a last solution, he tried to run to the door and open it. He had the keys so he could do it if he had enough time. But, Acht wasn't going to let him reach his goal.

*Swish*

The man was pushed back a few meters.

"Wait for your turn." He said as he pulled the smashed head of the man in his hand. The man did hold on for some time, but in the end, his head was cracked open like an egg and he died on the spot.

Then, Acht turned to the two left that had already lost all of their hope of getting saved.

Suddenly, the leader shouted.

"You are here because of the drug, right?"

He then took a deep breath and said in a low voice.

"I can tell you who's the owner of this factory."

The man found that as his last idea to get out of this room alive. Revealing such secrets had its consequences but he had no other choice at hand if he wanted to live.

Acht looked at him with cold eyes that made him shudder visibly.

"We are nothing but workers here so you can't blame us. How about it? You could deal with the roots of this work instead of killing some small fries like us?"

His reasoning might sound right in his head, but for Acht, it was nothing but a farce.

"And why should I believe whatever nonsense will come out of your mouth in the next moment."

"I-I have proof. Here, this is a document that shows a transaction of money for the laboratory. You can see who's the one who deposited the money. It's a top-secret transaction so even the government wouldn't know about it."

The man said as threw an envelope at Acht. The boy grabbed the envelope and opened it.

That's when he saw the name and his eyes widened significantly. Of all the names he predicted could be there, none of them involved what he saw.

The sender of such money…was the GoldKnight family.

Immediately, the image of a certain red-haired woman manifested itself in his mind.

"Scarlett's family is the owner of this drug laboratory?" He muttered to himself in slight disbelief.
