Chapter 37 Killer Kids Squad (2)
If this was a film studio, then I would have been able to hear the director's voice saying 'Cut' out loud.
And because of the 'Cut' sound, the actors stopped moving suddenly. Yep, to match that metaphor, the cast in that film was Gilbert and me, where we did dangerous action scenes before.
The reason why I was able to equate what I experienced with the filming process was because of the strangeness that happened to Gilbert, the leader of the branch of the Black Box Organization that I was fighting against.
We, who previously were fighting seriously, are now just facing each other without moving. He stood motionless. As if he had been paralyzed by magic, there was no sign of movement from his body. It seemed to reflect that he was a statue from the start.
[Death Mana has successfully entered the target.]
[Death Mana starts consuming Demonic Mana.]
[The transfer of control process has started.]
[Demonic Mana has been successfully eroded.]
[The target has been affected by the Death Mana contained within the Stigma of Darkness! Now, the target is in your complete control.]
[Congratulations! You have successfully obtained Mind's Puppet.]
A series of system messages popped up before my eyes. I still find it hard to believe the system messages I read.
Slowly, I tried to understand the situation.
[You can control Mind's Puppet by using your will.]
'Control.'
Can I really do that?
To confirm this, I approached Gilbert. I walked up to him with great care. If the system message was a lie and Gilbert was just faking it, I would have died on the spot.
What's more, this pitiful state of my body. With great difficulty, I walked over while holding my arm which seemed to have been broken. There was also blood dripping from the corner of my lips.
As I walked until I reached him, all I could think about was telling Gilbert to stand still. I was using my will, without any verbal command, as conveyed by the system's message.
Miraculously, even though I tapped the protruding muscles on his body, he really didn't move.
Do I now get a giant teddy bear? But how far is this puppet's power compared to when he still had consciousness? How far can I control this doll, accurately? I still need to check it out.
The first thing I need to check is, can he still remembers the things he has done. In other words, does the memory in his brain still exist?
To answer those questions, I need to examine them. First and foremost, I still have a big question mark in my head, it was something that bothered me from the start.
So, I immediately asked.
"Who gave you the pill you ate earlier?"
The reason why he was able to have so much power at the expense of his consciousness was because he had taken a strange pill before.
It seemed that he only had one pill. That's why I can't be sure what pills he took. But clearly, I know that the pill is a pill that makes him rage like a bear.
At first glance, it was an insignificant matter, but it could lead to a big event in the future. Especially the person who made the pill.
With a serious expression, I waited for an answer. Not long after that, he finally started to let the answers out of his mouth.

"Hey, I don't know what that person ordered, but, are you sure that we should still follow what that person ordered?"
"Yeah. Shouldn't we just go straight away?"
The children protested Anas' decision because Anas was obeying the Mesties' orders.
Seeing the frightened faces of the children, it was only natural that they would protest Anas.
"Alright. I won't force you to follow me anymore. For those of you who want to leave, I won't hold you back. But, for those of you who still want to stay with me, I'll tell you what that person ordered."
They were all silent.
Anas continued, "I'm almost certain that if you leave here, you'll probably be kidnapped by someone else again. Or, in the best-case scenario, you'll still starve along the way. Therefore, I'll bet on following that guy's orders. "
'And I have a feeling that keeps whispering in my heart that I should believe him.' That is what he thought without being able to tell the other children.
After Anas persuaded them, the other children also began to realize their position. And again, in their subconscious, they also began to think of Anas as their leader. Perhaps, it was because they had often seen his tenacity and courage.
"A-are you sure about this?"
After knowing the place where Anas led them, the children began to look disappointed that they had followed Anas.
Where they are now is a prison. On both sides of them were prison cells. Inside the prison cell, some people were locked up and looked very miserable.
As it turned out, they were members of the Black Box Organization themselves.
Yes. This prison is where the members of the Black Box Organization are locked up. The reason why some members of the Black Box Organization were locked up was because of those who defected, betrayed, and committed other offenses. Including those who failed in carrying out their mission.
"Okay. Let's do it!"
Anas gave the order.
Earlier, on the way to the prison, Anas had told the other children about the plan that Mesties had ordered.
First of all, they had to free the prisoners as if they were a savior who had come from heaven.
Due to the chaos in the headquarters, Anas and the other children managed to get the prison key from the corpse of a guard who had been killed by Mesties.
When the lock was opened, the children entered the prison cell as if they were little angels who had come down from heaven to help those who had suffered.
However, what some of the suffering people or those who were subjected to the angel's kindness did was not gratitude, but something brazen.
"Ah!"
"Kya!"
Inside some of the prison cells, loud screams were heard from the children who wanted to free the prisoners.
Anas saw that the people who had just been released were actually fighting and attacking the children who freed them.
Now, the little angels have been caught by evil hands. Good is repaid with evil. More or less that's the fate of the children.
"You rancid brat! You think we'll thank you when you save us?"
Surprisingly, the children who had been attacked and taken hostage were still calm. Flames could be seen burning in the children's eyes.
"I didn't expect what he thought would actually happen. Luckily we were prepared beforehand. You guys! Do it!"
Anas gave orders to the children.
Automatically, the children who became prisoners took out a knife from under their clothes. And they plunged the knives in their hands into the chests of those who held them hostage.
Blood rushed to their faces. Even so, they didn't seem frightened like other normal children. Because they are used to it. These are the teachings of the members of the Black Box Organization themselves.
Should we say, 'Weapon Eat Master'?
The tattered prisoners looked very surprised. Unfortunately, that was the last expression they could put out in this world. Eventually, they fell to the ground without being able to put up a fight.
On the other hand, several members of the Black Box Organization who had not rebelled noticed what was happening. They all held their breath as they saw the horrific faces of the children.
Whereas those children were just sandbags to them before. However, what they saw now was a bunch of little devils.
"Hehehe, I didn't expect that I would feel this good when I kill people."
Anas saw the expressions of joy on the children's faces. While he didn't realize that he himself was also showing a happy smile.
This was the moment when the children who had suffered at the hands of the members of the Black Box Organization tasted the sweetness of revenge. In their hearts, they simultaneously thanked the person who had created this moment. That person was none other than Mesties.
This incident was exactly what Mesties wanted. However, there was one thing that was beyond Mesties' expectations. It is the awakening of the brutal soul within the children.
"Doesn't anyone want to rebel anymore?"
Anas asked about those who were still alive. Obviously, no one said anything.
"I didn't expect that things would turn out the way he predicted."
Actually, the children have been prepared for this scenario. After all, it was all predicted by Mesties, who then passed it on to Anas. That's why Anas ordered the children to carry weapons on their way to prison and then did it according to the scenario.
Amidst everyone's excitement, someone came from the direction of the prison entrance.
Then, that person brought back the senses of the children who were intoxicated with excitement.
"Don't get too excited. The reason why you can kill them easily is because they were already in a miserable state before."
The person who came was Mesties.
As Mesties said, the biggest reason the children were able to kill the prisoners was because the prisoners were in a pitiful state.
When Mesties arrived, he observed the prisoners first. Then, he walked away, ignoring the shocked children.
Mesties went straight to a prisoner whose face he still remembered.
