Chapter 512: Modified Monsters
After killing one of the three vampires, not only the two vampires left are quiet. The monsters watching are also shaking in fear. That mean at least the vampire is much stronger than most of the monsters here. At least that’s what the monsters here recognize.
“You are so stupid thinking of attacking me for my blood. Can’t you see clearly that I have the Vampire Queen by my side? If she follows me without being bonded by a contract, why would you think of attacking me, huh? Are you looking for death instead?”
I guess I intimidated the vampires too much. What if they refuse to say anything because of fear? Then I think killing them would be much better.
“Roy. Don’t you have some questions to them?” Arin reminded me to interrogate the vampires.
“Oh, right. Let’s just move to the important part. We’re in a hurry, you see. Can you tell me about this monster prison?” I asked the vampires about the existence of this cave.
From what I see, I think this cave was made by an earth mage. Probably an expert level one. It was too new compared to what a cave should be. But it’s still at least a few years old.
Just as the vampires about to speak, I heard a voice speaking from the corner of the cage. It’s still in the same cell as the vampires.
.....
“So what if you’re just a bit stronger than a Vampire Queen? The people who locked us in here are much stronger than that,” he said.
He’s also a monster. He has the appearance of a lizard who is walking with two legs. No, I guess he’s not really a lizard. He has wings on his back. A dragon? What was it again? The race that look like a dragon?
“...You’re a lizard?” I asked.
“I’m a proud member of dragonic race!”
Oh, so easy to provoke. I guess he’s really from dragonic race.
In my memory of what I have read about dragonic race, although my memory is bad, I think I read something about them being distant descendant of real dragon like Andro. They are weaker than real dragons but they are smarter. Or at least that’s what I read.
“Just answer my question. After you speak, none of the monsters here dare to leak a voice. Does it mean you’re recognized as the leader? Even though there are bigger monsters than you? Well, I don’t care. Anyway, it’s simple. I ask, you answer. That’s all. Do you understand?” I asked the dragonic man.
“You think I will talk to a human!? Dream on!”
“...you’re annoying. I’ll call you Gecko from now on. If the Vampire Queen can’t make you talk, I need to get someone bigger,” I said to myself.
“Who the hell is a gecko here!?” Gecko shouted.
I ignored the gecko that is leaping toward me. I turn my back toward him, and opened a portal directly to Andro’s location. And just by opening the portal, all the monsters here feel the sheer pressure of the mighty Kaiser Dragon. Even though only his eye can be seen through the portal.
“W-what is that!?” Gecko shouted. And I ignored him.
“Hey, Andro! It’s been a while!” I greeted the Kaiser Dragon on the other side.
“Oh, Roy! What can I do for you?” Andro asked.
“Well, I actually want you to teach this gecko a thing or two. But it seems like I don’t need to do that anymore,” I said.
“Gecko? Oh, that dragonic man? He is a gecko indeed. HAHAHA!”
Andro’s laughter was so loud that even got Shelia and Graham who are deep inside the cave shaking.
“So, Gecko, do you want to answer my questions?” I asked Gecko politely. If intimidating him can be called as polite.
“Yes! Please ask away! I will answer everything truthfully!”
“Okay. I guess that’s it. Sorry, Andro. I took your time,” I apologized to Andro.
“I don’t mind. I was bored anyway. Well, I’ll see you later then!” Andro said before I close the portal.
If only I can bring him to this world. We can defeat all the cult members with just a flap of his wings. And the cult won’t dare to fight us. Except maybe for the few master level mages.
Anyway, it’s questioning time.
“Why are you here? All of you monsters of different species here being locked in a cage. Why?”
“...We are either monsters that got summoned from our world, or monsters from this world, that have been tamed forcefully and became the strength of whoever did this to us,” Gecko said.
Oh, so not all of them are from this world. But aren’t there too many monsters to be summoned? What about the summoners? If they have summoners among the five whom I previously killed, they don’t need to come here. They can just summon their monster from afar. But I guess that means there are no summoners among the wave.
But does it mean they know the existence of the Pear-y Fruits? Well, it’s not like I’m the only one who know about it.
“So, all of you are contracted monsters?”
“Unfortunately, yes. But somehow, I feel like the contract disappears a few moments ago,” Gecko said. He truly changed after seeing Andro.
I guess I killed their tamers on the way here. But what about summoned monsters?
Surprisingly, there’s a way for the cult to forcefully destroy a contract. That’s what Gecko said. I’m interested in it, but it seems like the side effect is the monsters will be weakened. There are some other side effects as well. Including the summoner became disabled person. I guess I won’t do it with Graham then.
Gecko told me that the cult uses their summoners to summon a monster. After that, they will forcefully summon a monster, and destroy the contract. It was well-known that summoned monsters are generally stronger than the same monsters in this world.
That’s why the cult summoned monsters from Monsters World. After the contract was broken, they used their tamers to create another contract. This way, the summoner will have a slot to summon new monster. They keep doing it until the summoners can’t do it anymore. That’s why there are so few summoners in the cult.
And then, with the help of the tamers, they would do experiment on the monsters to make them even stronger. Probably, one of them is the monster that killed me.
“So, all of the monsters here have been modified?”
“...yes. For me, they just made my claws and fangs stronger. But some were experimented until they lost their mind. Those who are in this cell are monsters who still have their senses and only lightly modified,” Gecko explained.
I looked at the vampires and Arin who is talking with them. Arin nodded at me telling that those vampires are different than normal ones. Is it their fangs?
I guess I found a place where they keep their monsters. But I doubt it’s just this one cave. There must be other locations as well. And I can’t rest easy since the monsters here look powerful. Most of our allies would be dead if these monsters come out and fight us. Good thing I killed the tamers. But is that all of them? Five? There should be more, right?
“Is there anyone here who still has a contract binding them?” I asked.
Some of them raised their hands. But not all of them have hands, so some just raised their chin or do something to tell me that they still bound by a contract.
Now, what should I do? Should I kill them all?
“Is everyone in this cell intellectual species that can talk and still have their senses after the experiment?” I asked.
“Yes. There are some monsters who can still speak in the other cells. But their minds have slowly corroded and turned into wild beasts,” Gecko said.
...Aren’t they all beasts? If a monster said they are beasts, I guess that’s different then.
“Alright. All of you in this cell will be transported somewhere else using my portal. But first, I have to ask if any of you are still contracted to a summoner instead of a tamer. If so, I will think of another way,” I said.
Fortunately, all of the monsters in this cell are contracted with tamers. So, they can’t be summoned from distance. Though I still don’t trust them.
“Good. You have meet Andro, right? The Kaiser Dragon? I will transport you all to his back. You can wait there until I finished with things here,” I said.
“Wait! You want us to stay on the back of the mighty Kaiser Dragon!? Are you insane!?” Gecko shouted.
“No. I’m perfectly sane. That’s why I still can’t trust you all yet. Maybe some of you are still contracted with summoners and will end up fighting against us later. You lied thinking that I will leave you in this cell instead. Don’t worry. At least at the moment, I have no intention to kill you,” I said as I opened a portal on Andro’s back.
“Oh, is that you, Roy? It hasn’t been long since you contacted me though?” Andro noticed that I opened a portal on his back.
“Yeah! Sorry, but I need these monsters to stay on your back for a while. Will you help me?” I asked Andro.
“No problem. It’s not like I will do anything special to them. In fact, I might not notice they are there at all,” Andro replied.
“Umm... I’d like to stay in this prison instead,” One of the monsters suddenly spoke.
“Rejected! Move your ass or I will force you to!”
Some of the monsters didn’t like the idea of moving to Andro’s back, so they fight back. But with Arin and I here, we managed to get all of them to move.
I’ll ask them more questions later. There are still many cells we haven’t checked. Though the rest are monsters that have lost their minds. Maybe I’ll just kill them.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
