Chapter 344 Vermin
Scylla was a cannibal.
Personally, she enjoyed her meat slightly undercooked, so she could get the moisture just right, and her spices were also milder than usual.
She also didn't like her food preserves prior to being served, which meant every time she was hungry... someone had to die.
There was no preserving her meal afterwards.
Scylla had friends who shared in her twisted hobbies and enjoyed the same delicacy as her, so she turned her disgusting practice into a business.
She would procure, process, and even sometimes cook the meals that her comrades would enjoy, and they would give her money or small favors in exchange.
Of course, these people readily agreed.
They were too high-profile to risk their names being marred by murder or some kind of illegal activity. Also, since most of them weren't particularly deep into the criminal Underworld of the Alliance, they didn't know how to properly go about killing and processing humans.
In the end, it was far better for Scylla to do the dirty work.
There was something else too...
Out of all the clients Scylla had, none had managed to outmatch her own cruelty.
She was the worst of them all.
Since she preferred her meat to be very tender, her favorite maal was the meat of young ones—the younger the better. Follow current novels on novelb((in).(com)
Imagination could go wild on that, but it was exactly how it sounded.
Her twisted nature knew no limits.
************
'What... the fuck?!'
The more Rey got to know about Scylla, the more the disgust in his stomach bit at him.
His bloodshot eyes couldn't stop twitching as he tried his hardest to process the information he was receiving.
'Even... babies...?!'
When Rey first saw Scylla, he thought she was very beautiful. Not as pretty as Esme, or even Alicia—in his opinion—but she was a very fine lady.
Of course, he never let that distract him from his task. However, he often thought about how her innocent face didn't fit her cruel plans.
'This is on another level, though...'
He never thought she would be such a Monster.
'Her Alignment was Neutral Evil, so I thought she only did these atrocities due to self interests...'
While that was still true, Rey hadn't known how far those 'self interests' would take her, and just how much she had done.
If he had known...
It had been a long night already.
After leaving the underground world of Scylla, he went around and investigated the entire building where the Dark Gathering had taken place.
He searched every nook and cranny of the place.
'I couldn't find that Curse Item that Rebal was referring to. Did Adrien steal it already?'
Rey bit his lip in a bit of annoyance. However, he recognized that there was nothing he could do about the matter.
In the end, he just had to let it go.
Rey stole one final glance at the carnage he caused, straining a smile on his exhausted face.
'I should feel proud about what I did tonight.'
He had purged the world of the vermin that were eating into the goodness of the world he was living in and were making it all worse.
At the very least, he knew there would be less victims who would suffer at the hands of cruel beings like Scylla.
That was Rey's comfort.
'It's time to leave...' Rey could already sense the presence of the Alliance Forces.
They were closing in on the building and getting ready to enter.
He didn't want to be spotted there.
'Perhaps I should first of all branch Rebal's mansion and drop Esme there.'
Afterwards, he just wanted to have a long rest.
'With this... it's over.'
~VWUUSH!~
In a flash of blue light, Rey was completely gone from the scene.
And then, a few seconds later... the soldiers entered.
