Chapter 163: Betrayal's punishment

Viktor was devastated by reviewing the pathetic future ahead of him. It was true that the thing he was doing was nothing but fooling around and wasting time.

But it was also necessary because he also had to rely on and build trust with his companion. Living being's habit is a dangerous thing. For this reason, he can't do all the work by himself and left the easiest work for Adonis.

He had to do it because they needed to learn how to deal with things the hard way even though it was very easy for Viktor to deal with.

Adonis was also trying his best but still, he was inexperienced in this type of fieldwork.

After having their breakfast, Adonis quickly went out to work and Viktor went to his study room to study more about the future. Since he was thinking about dropping out of college, he took all of his belongings back and started to spend his time at home. This sudden decision was also related to his sudden popularity on the internet. Because he doesn't like to stand out at all.

He was an introvert who loved to stay inside his room, probably forever.

The day dawned.

'I studied too much today-_-.' He mumbled and stood up from his chair to take a look outside. 'Adonis is sure working very hard to capture that guy. But I have confidence in his abilities. Also, I have high expectations from our formal god of hell, Ifrit. Let's see who wins the battle.'

He closed the record of someone very special and put it inside his library. He then walked outside of his study room and saw Welis standing in front of it.

She was waiting for him to say something important.

"Viktor, do you have some time?"

Viktor read her record to know about her intention and then said, "Of course. Let's have a cup of tea."

Welis followed Viktor outside of the house and entered the newly built greenhouse that he cherished so much. The greenhouse wasn't filled with otherworldly plants because there were outside workers at his home and they also took care of them. So Viktor had to plant earthly plants to decorate them.

Two cups of tea were served on the table filled with sweets.

"When did you prepare them?" Welis asked.

"A new kid in the kitchen prepared them just a minute ago. He's very good at baking new types of cakes. Have some, it's delicious."

She then took a seat in front of him and said, "I thought you weren't fond of sweets. A sudden change of mind?"

"No, I don't hate any food except for raw meat and dried fish. I can consume anything other than those two things."

"I see." She was hesitating to say what she wanted to say so Viktor said, "Don't worry. I've already cast a sound barrier around us. Nobody will hear our conversation."

She then smiled awkwardly and said, "Oh? I didn't even notice the mana flow. You're so great at casting spells."

"Quit babbling nonsense."

She flinched a little and gulped. "Um, it's about Astraeus. I've been in the guardian realm for so long and also in the mortal realm. I know what they are thinking even without a single clue. I can guess the full scenario just by looking at their gestures."

'Oh… she finally saw through his 'empty mind' intentions. She might have lost her fragment but she still has her 'senses' deeply connected with her soul. As expected of an elder guardian.'

Viktor crossed his hands and then said, "So you're assuming that he might commit treason against absolute loyalty?"

She nodded her head and again said, "He might show his absolute loyalty to you but since I'm the one who's always with him, I know exactly what he is aiming for."

"How can you be so sure? You know that nobody can hide anything from me. Even if he thinks about something deep inside his dream, there's no way that I wouldn't know."

She sighed and said, "I've been with guardians more than three of your lifetime combined. To us, Loyalty is a double-edged sword. If you're too careless, it will pierce through your heart. Be careful of Astraeus. That's all I wanted to say."

Viktor looked at her and then said, "So what do you suggest? Should I kill him?"

"That's up to you to decide. As a fellow senior, I will advise you to be careful around 'born guardians'. The way of humans doesn't apply to us."

She then bowed her head and left the greenhouse after having a nice cup of tea. Viktor stayed there until the clock reached 12. They had a late-night tea time so he had to clean the tables after he was done. He then water some of his plants and left the greenhouse.

In front of there, a man was standing.

"Young master North. Master Adonis is back home." It was the butler of the house. So he asked, "Why are you still awake?"

"Young master, I'm not on my duty now. I'm here to inform you personally about this matter and also, I'm here to ask for a favour."

He raised his eyebrows and said, "A favour?"

"Yes, please hear me out." He then walked closer to Viktor and whispered something in Viktor's ears. He wasn't showing it but when he got closer to Viktor, he saw the butler was trembling. He knew something was wrong and when he listened to his favour, he said, "Well done. You've done a splendid job. I will ask Adonis to raise your salary for your bravery. Now, go back to your dorm. Leave that thing to me."

The butler bowed and rushed inside his dorm in fear. Viktor then mumbled, 'Now you've done it, Rae.'

Without showing a hint of killing intent, he went inside his house and kicked the door to Adonis' room. Adonis was in the middle of changing so he was a little surprised. "Master, is there something wrong?"

"Adonis, a rat caught in my trap some moment ago."

"Rat? What rat?" He asked Viktor and put on a white t-shirt. He again asked, "Is there something wrong?"

"No, everything is fine. It's just a rat that got caught up in my trap and is currently in the 'empty mind' stage. He's sending coded signals through his technique."

Viktor then grabbed Adonis's t-shirt and said, "We can't waste any time. Let's go!!" Both of them immediately teleported into Rae's room and found him in a steamy situation.

Adonis blushed…

'Oi!! This isn't the time for this stuff!-_-.'

Viktor took a seat in front of him and said, "Rae, I want an explanation."

The girl under him heard Viktor talking and screaming. She was shy and also embarrassed to see there were two more men inside that room. She then struggled to get away from his grip but sadly, he increased his volume.

Viktor then again asked, "Rae, I know what you did. You are the executive, working for Elesis through an 'empty mind'. Do you really think that I wouldn't know that? You are carrying a parasite in your body that is sending information to the VIP workers."

Adonis suddenly went into rage mode but Viktor stopped him. "Adonis, don't interfere."

Rae laughed out loud and said, "You really think that you can win against Elesis in that state? You're too naive who can't even kill a person with his bare hand. A human freak like you can never win, let alone become a god. Even if you kill me here, you will never gain anything. Oh, I forgot. You're too naive to kill me. You'll probably let me go after sucking my fragment. Hahaha!! Keukk!!!...."

Viktor suddenly reappeared behind him on the bed and pierced a knife on his back. He smiled and said, "What were you saying? Devour your fragment? I already did that a year ago and replaced it with a fake one."

The girl under him screamed because of the blood and somehow got away from there. But she couldn't walk past Adonis to the door because her legs were cut off by him in a nanosecond. Adonis was so angry that he nearly cut the whole house in half but somehow he held himself and cut the table in front of him in half.

The girl fainted in pain.

"What!! What do you mean?" Rae asked.

"Have you ever wondered why you're acting like a human? Why are you suddenly feeling the urge to mate? That's because you have a fake fragment in you and a devil parasite in your body. Hehehe!!! You really thought that I would let you go? In, your, dreams…"

Viktor then grabbed his hair and started to drag him outside the room. Rae was screaming and attacking him with magic spells but nothing was working on him. His scream was so loud that all the members of the house woke up and gathered to see what was going on.

But by that time, the three of them had already entered Viktor's dimension room.

'I will show you what happens when a kind guy like me gets annoyed by some bugs.'

He threw Rae on the floor and chained his whole body for preparing to torture. Adonis was too shocked to see him getting prepared for the torture so he asked, "Master, aren't you going to kill him?"

Viktor smiled innocently and said, "I'm a kind person. I don't kill people. I keep them alive even if the person is trying to commit suicide. So, shall we start with the nails?"

Adonis gulped and said, "Master, I will prepare the healing meal then."

"Ah, that will be very helpful, my dear knight."

Viktor was so pissed off that he started to leak out the killing intent all over his dimensional room. It also leaked out of the dimension and went inside the void. His killing intent was so thick that it went straight to the core of the void and made it tremble in fear.

Viktor stared at Rae's face and said, "It's time for you to pay back everything with so many interests. Don't expect me to go easy on you."

At that moment, Rae finally understood why Elerous was called absolute evil. To him, death was the cheapest price to pay. So Viktor decided to play with him inside his 'time trap spell' until he gets bored with it.

Rae then said, "You are evil. You will never win this battle!!! I will ..AAAAAHHHH!!!"

Viktor smiled and said, " I will make sure to show you how I climb all the way to the top and then feed you to my dogs as an infinite food. So, you can't die. I'm a very kind person and I should maintain it."
