Let Them Enjoy Wonders

"Tatara, I would now take my leave for the hunt for rats who are hiding here. We will meet at the pre-arranged place after the set time. I wish you good luck."

Lucien stated, after which he left the command room.

Tatara nodded his head and then also exited the command room to fight against the wardens of the Cochlea Prison. The roles were already given. Tatara would fight against those who showed themselves, and Lucien would go hunt for those who were hiding.

After Lucien exited the place, he went to the section where the interrogation rooms were located. They were located randomly, as some were on Level 1, Level 2, or Level 3. Level 4 was completely devoid of facilities as such because they were rather useless there.

No SSS-Rate ghoul would be interrogated.

Lucien dashed through corridors, killing every staff of the Cochlea Prison he saw, leaving behind only headless corpses. He was using his tail for this work, as he was too lazy to use a sword. Besides, his tail reacted on its own already when it saw a target.

After some time, he arrived at the Interrogation section, where he started slaughtering every person he found. Accidentally, there were a lot of ordinary people hiding there because this area should have been secured through an unbreachable quinque steel heavy door.

Still, those were torn apart by Lucien's kagune tails.

After Lucien killed more than forty people, mainly civilian staff, he finally found one of the head interrogators of the Cochlea Prison. Even though slaughtering ordinary people could be said to be bad or, Lucien didn't care much because they were also partly responsible for the torture of countless ghouls.

Tokage Goumasa was one of the head interrogators in the Cochlea Prison. He was also one of the best interrogators here, only falling behind Kijima Shiki. He was a madman with high sadistic tendencies. When Yamori was held in the Cochlea Prison, he was responsible for interrogating him, turning him into the crazy person he is today.

The retribution didn't wait long.

His initial appearance of an average-looking man turned into disfigured and riddled with scars. And he was also kicked out of his position as the interrogator, but he often visited Cochlea Prison to help with some hard cases.

Lucien knew that he would be here today as he had a great information broker.

As Lucien didn't want to kill him immediately, he severed all his limbs, one by one, slowly, and to make it more painful; he was constantly using his psionic energy to let him have a clear mind, not falling unconscious.

He tortured him for several minutes, even though it was a rather short time for a person like him, but he set his pain receptors to the maximum with the usage of his psionic energy. After that, he left him there to die, as he knew that he wouldn't live past several seconds. Previously he was kept alive by psionic energy, but now...

But more importantly, Lucien was searching for Kijima Shiki. In Lucien's opinion, a person is more wicked and mad than anything seen in this world. He also had the strength of the Associate Special Class Investigator, so Lucien would be very happy to kill him right now. Of course, by killing him, he could prevent some tragedies in the future.

"So you went after Cochlea the entire time?"

Questioned Misaka Kyoji as he held his quinque. It was a weird-looking quinque that did something, like devouring its target and killing it with some special means. Misaka Kyoji was a middle-aged man, skinny and pale. He had long blond hair but was bald on the top of his head.

He turned it on with his hands, and the entire cocoon started glowing in fierce light, but soon, it stooped. Misaka Kyoji had a victorious smile on his face as he thought he had killed Tatara. But the reality was far crueler. Soon entire quinque started disintegrating, and a blood-red hole appeared on the warden's white attire.

"Yes."

Said Tatara as he pierced through the warden's heart with his hand. Then he threw him down from the bridge and walked away, killing many CCG staff members with his kagune tail. His tail was too strong and too hard; it even destroyed walls without any effort.

Tatara went down to the lower floors, especially to the Third Floor, which was used to confine SS-Rated ghouls. Currently, there are only six of them or so. One of the people locked there was also Kamishiro Matasaka, known as Sachi or Orca.

He was an extremely strong ghoul, well-versed in martial arts, as he was taught by his foster father, Kamishiro, who was a martial arts master. Ironically Kamishiro was a human, but he adopted Matasaka, and he even gave him his name.

The rating of Kamishiro Matasaka was around SS, but his real one should be rather SSS-Rate.

Besides him, now we're in Cochlea, only the other two SS-Rate ghouls. One of them was Porpora Donato, Hoito Roma, and one unnamed SS-Rated ghoul whose nickname was The Blade, as his quinque had the form of the blade.

Tatara was told by Lucien not to release Porpora Donato or Hoito Roma, as it would be better for them to be in prison for a while. Both of them were members of the Clowns, and now it wasn't time to release them.

Lucien wanted to release them when the time would be more appropriate.

As Lucien said that, Tatara wouldn't release two of them and let them enjoy the wonders of the Cochlea Detention Center for some time.

In another part of the Cochlea Prison, Lucien was searching through every part to find some people to kill. By now, almost the entire prison was filled with corpses of the ghoul investigators, guardians of the prison, or other staff members.

When prisoners were released, they were killing people at a terrifying rate and regaining their peak condition as most of them were significantly weakened.
