Subject 303

" Illireielth!"

Illireiendil shouted. His body was filled with cuts, blue liquid was oozing out of his wound. Standing before him was a mindless Illireielth. She was growling like a beast, drooling down the ground. She stared at him with her bloodshot eyes. No matter how long he shouted, she didn't seem to recognize him at all. This happened in the morning while they were sleeping soundly, Illireielth suddenly convulsed. Her mana became chaotic as if it was trying to tear her body apart. In her anguish screamed she begged Illireiendil to kill her but how could she expect him to do that?

Illireiendil tried to secure her sword but failed miserably. Despise her condition, she was much stronger and faster than she normally was. It was already a miracle that Illireiendil could keep up with her until now. At this rate, it would be no other choice for him but to…

Illireielth collapsed, she was still breathing but could not move anymore. Under Illireiendil's feet were pieces of stick-like objects that were covered in blood. She was still crawling toward him with her noodle legs and arms. Illireiendil didn't know what to do, he just stood there dumbfoundedly watching Illireielth who was now like a mindless zombie tried to eat him. Out of nowhere, a sweet voice came to his ears.

" Oh my look at what you did ~"

Standing behind him was a beautiful young girl, skin chalky as snow, long raven hair seemingly blended with the darkness, wearing an elegant blackish v-neck gown. Her violet eyes looked at him amusingly.

Before another word could escape the girl's mouth, she became a lifeless corpse with only skin and attire. Crushing the human skull under his feet, Illireiendil gritted his teeth when the voice once again invade his ears.

" [Sigh]… that won't do, could you stop doing that my love? It was such a pain to get killed every time I visit you."

20m away from him was the figure of the girl he just killed re-appeared smiling sadistically. She seemed to be completely fine as if what happened seconds ago was just an illusion.

" Get out of my sight!"

" Don't be such a hassle, darling ~ You've no idea how I've been worrying about you, only to see you here cuddling with another woman again, how could a maiden's heart not feel betrayed?"

" … What've you done to her?"

" Me? I did nothing."

The girl shrugged her shoulder.

" Please don't treat me as such a vicious woman. You made me sad ~ The one who did this to her was no one but you, darling ~"

" What?"

" Didn't you just poison her with the thing you gave to her?"

The girl pointed at the lizzard's skin. And Illireiendil eyes's went wide, he seem to be understood something, his knee dropped to the ground.

" Poor Illireielth, she probably wanted to spend more time with you with the little time she had left. But you were so inconsiderate ~ or maybe she was just a fool ~"

" No, no, it can't be, I always eat that."

" You know you and she is two different species, right? Though you may not know there's hardly anything in this place that's poisonous to you, even the pig that little liar told you not to eat."

" …"

" So now what darling? Now's already come to this just end her just as you did to hundreds of others."

Illireiendil shuddered in anger. The young girl who standing before him, the one who always referred to him as her beloved. He had no memory of her, but he could feel an unbearable anger and hatred every time he heard her voice. He knew deep in his core, that this young girl was his most loathsome enemy.

" Can you save her?"

" Ara ~ What made you come to that conclusion I wonder? Hehehe… Yes, I can but I have no reason to do so don't I?"

" Yes, there is… You said that I'm your loved one. Now's the time to prove that."

He said that looking straight into these violet eyes, after a while, a burst of laughter resounded.

" Hahaha. My darling is so unreasonable but very well. I love you, after all, ~ But still, that was not the right attitude of pleading, let me think. How about: 'Please, my dearest?"

" … Please my dearest."

" Tsk tsk."

The girl shook her head seemingly unsatisfied with Illireiendil's word. Illireiendil walked toward the girl and took her hand. All of his tentacles let loose as his head bowed to her.

" Please my dearest, please my love, save her."

" [Giggle]… that's more like it."

The young girl figured disappeared, in the next moment she sat next to Illireielth. The girl put her hand near Illireielth's mouth and as expected Illireielth bite her. Illireielth's now mutated sharp teeth dug deep into the young girl's hand, tearing it apart. The young girl didn't seem to mind. She just let her hand get chewed by Illireielth. After a moment, Illireielth stopped. Illireiendil rushed toward the two of them, his eyes glued to the unconscious Illireielth.

" Do not worry darling, she'll be fine soon. But I have to warn you the solution is temporary. If she kept eating those things, I might not be able to save her next time."

Hugging Illireielth in his arm, he could feel her temperature lower, her wound began to heal. Even her limps which were destroyed by him grew back.

" Then what should I feed her?"

The young girl smiled she pointed to his left arm which still have a shape similar to that of a human.

" Farewell darling, I'll visit you another time."

Saying that the young girl disappeared into thin air.

In a big lab room, a middle-aged man was drinking something like coffee while watching the monitor. His eyes were blank. The expression on his face was like someone forced to watch a boring drama. After a moment, a young girl wearing a black gown appeared next to him.

" Your highness, how long do I have to wait until you bring him to me?"

The girl sat next to him nonchalantly took his coffee.

" This thing is so gross. You have such poor taste, Cronley."

" You drank it the wrong way your highness, just take a small sip every day, you would soon enjoy it."

" Is that so? Heh, that's also the answer to your question Cronley."

" I don't get what you mean."

Both of them look at the screen, there's the image of Illirendil looking at his arm hesitatingly while holding Illireielth sword.

" You said it all a wasted of time, now look isn't this a great success? Soon Cronley, I'll have him, there's no need to rush."

" …"

" Oh comm'on Cronley ~ don't make that face, have a little fate in me will you?"

" [Sigh], just don't go overboard with your fun your highness. It might turn into a disaster."

" Yeah yeah. Don't worry."

Seeing blood splattered on the screen, the young girl smiled.

" I wonder what made our little princess so special from the others? I'm a little jealous, seeing a human accomplish the thing I failed."

On a different screen, there was a video about Illirendil eating the corpse of a human. At the corner of the screen, there was a red line " Subject 303. Race: human. Class: Thief."
