Surviving As An Extra In Fantasy World Isn't Easy-Chapter 106 :The Real Perpetrator

It had been a while since Lucas went up.

After waiting for him for a while, since Lucas did come down, Parth who had been stomping his feet eventually chose to move toward the upper floor.

On his way, the dismembered bodies of the humans were visible. Seeing sword cuts and dagger stabs, Parth thought that Lucas was becoming more versatile in handling various weapons at once.

Searching around, he spotted a huge destroyed portion of the wall. As soon as he stepped inside, he felt the odd atmosphere.

His eyes hung and his expression distorted seeing pale white wrinkled dried corpses laid and hung on the wall.

At the centre of the room, near a large white table-like bed, Lucas stood motionless.

A sharp reddish aura hung around Lucas.

The atmosphere of him looking down was something unusual. Seeing him, Parth felt a lump stuck over his throat. There was dark heavy air pressing down on his shoulders.

It was filled with ominousness and eeriness.

Parth felt a chill and all the hair of his stood up in fear.

When he walked near, his eyes opened wide and he covered his mouth with both hands.

"Kill...Kill...me..."

"What!"

A soft murmur leaked out from the lips seeing the pleading eyes of decayed corpses begging them to kill.

"Lucas..."

"Leave!"

It was just a single word but the iciness radiating from Lucas's voice froze Parth. Even he who had gone through so much and seen many discomforting scenes was taken perplexed for a moment.

So, he did not dare to imagine the feelings Lucas is going through. Unless you have a tough mentality or are used to this,99 out of 100 would pass out with a trauma etched in your heart for the entire lifetime.

"Lucas, are you alright?"

"Parth, wait for me outside? Give me a moment?"

Parth wanted to refute it but his words choked. He could feel the sheer frustration in Lucas's words and was sure that if he did not listen, he might be attacked for real so he didn't joke to ease the situation.

"You better come out quickly. Don't do anything stupid, we all are here for you."Parth shouted, gnashing his teeth, and walked back.

BREAK!

He had hardly taken a step out when he heard the sound of something getting crushed.

Parth didn't turn to look back. Because he can't.

Even if he had lost most of his emotions, his heart always held a soft spot for children cause he never wanted the children to go through what he went through so he feared that if he stepped back now, he might not be able to control his emotions anymore.

A dagger stabbed the skull.

Only then did the pitiful voice and bloodied tears stop. Having shattered the child's skull, Lucas sighed.

"I will help you all."

"Wait a little. I promise."

"I will burn them down after which you can rest in peace."

"Amen!"

........

At the entrance of the old broken church, numerous corpses were already piled up.

Most of them were the corpses of monkey and gorilla-like monsters. Fortunately, everything was cleared inside the church, so even if Frederick was unwilling, he had to hide the children in there waiting for things to clear up.

Frederick looked at Roan's pale, sickly appearance.

"Are you alright?"

"Yeah!"

Roan answered softly. His chest heaved up and down, and feeling out of breath, he sucked in the cold air greedily.

"Hold on, Roan. You must hold on."Frederick tried to cheer him up.

Surrounding them were the numerous monsters eyeing to slaughter them.

When Frederick and Roan came out, they were surprised to see a huge number of monsters waiting patiently to welcome them.

"Damn!"

Frederick paced up, kicking the ground. Arriving in the middle of a horde of monsters, Frederick spun the edge of his spear.

A solid bluish line was drawn in the air.

Brilliant clusters of light left scars on the world. Afterimages of Frederick Spears shot around tearing through the air.

Monster's blood gushed out like a fountain and dripped down like rain.

As if trying to grab Frederick, many of them tried to grope him, however, before they could do so.

Vines sprouted from the ground and chained the monsters.

Turning back, Frederick gave Roan a nod and jumped into the fray.

Frederick swam through the tide of monsters and slaughtered everyone that stood before him.

Grievous screams of agony rang repeatedly.

Frederick, after witnessing the scene, knew that these were all humans who had been turned into monsters or rather into the violent primitive form of humans that science advocates.

Some of them are children, while some might be their parents. His emotions were quite complex.

Was there no cure for them?

There might be...

Can they return to their previous state?

One can only hope so.

So, can he spare them?

No...

Whether knowingly or unknowingly, these people had hurt many. Their presence is a threat to everyone present in the city. He can't wait for someone to come with a cure and let them rampage till that day.

He isn't a hero of justice.

As Parth said, save what can be saved and discard what should be discarded. That is the only way one can survive here.

Every instant his spear fell, corpses would appear one after another.

Roan standing in the back, was taken by surprise for a moment. He was mesmerised by Frederick's flawless display of spearmanship.

This was crazy, totally crazy.

There was not a single sign of exhaustion on his face.

KIEEEEEEE!

A scratching bewildered sound rang out.

Two monsters rolling across the ground jumped towards Roan. Before he could react, two lines of sharp claw mark engraving in the air came straight at him.

Roan knows his barrier spell is useless and once casted, his movements will be paralysed. So, instead of waiting like a fool, he decides to dodge and roll into the ground.

Swishhhh!

It was a dazzling speed. Three daggers encased with a blackish mass were drawn at the same time. The monsters which were wriggling and struggling, died belatedly with their heads split in half by the dagger slice.

Roan's eyes widened as he recognized the identity but even that was only for a moment.

Roan's eyes locked on the person, after which he heaved in relief.

"Parth, you are alone. Where is Lucas?"

Before Parth could answer him, a shout of metal screeching rang around.

Alarmed, Frederick hurried back and regrouped.

After a moment, they were flabbergasted by the huge horde of monsters swarming towards them.

And in the centre of the swarm, an old man with tied hair walked out.

Seeing the man, Parth screamed in bewilderment"What the fuck?"

"You...."

Frederick and Roan stood there dazed as if struck by lightning.

"Mr Heilford!"

Everyone shrieked in disbelief.

"Haaa..."He let out a sigh.

"Kids!! Why...Just tell me why did you have to poke your nose around so much?"

"You found the missing children, so you should have left. Why did you force me to take these steps?"

Parth almost tore his hair wondering what was going on.

Frederick squinted his eyes seeing the monsters keeping quiet following Heilford and glimpsing them a bad premonition welled in his heart.

"You...You are the real mastermind aren't you?"

"Unfortunately, yes?"

Heilford, raising his monocle, answered with a gentle smile.

"Let me go, I will cut this old fucker into pieces," Parth shouted.

"No, one is holding you back," Roan answered, rolling his eyes.

"Kids, I have been lenient on you. Since you are dying, let me satisfy your curiosity."Helford clapping his hands started to narrate.

"During the annual check-up, I made a mistake due to which the Orphanage Association found out about missing children. And it all happened because of that scumbag Clint. A kidnapped boy from our orphanage snitched against us after escaping from Clint."

Frederick raised his brows and clenched his fist as he felt that this man wasn't talking about orphanages but rather farming kids.

"So to divert their attention, I came up with this excuse of a monster kidnapping children. Some are killed while some are saved by Clint whom he sells to the slave. Using bribes and external means, I suppressed the case however, it seems the PSB was still unwilling to close the case so I had to use the monsters to kidnap children and maintain the facade which regretfully ended up in Horizon."

"Why the fuck are you explaining all this?"Parth asked with a confused expression.

"Because I want to know how you found the kidnapping place. I tried to lead you to the monster and thought that you would go away after getting rid of them. But not only you managed to find out the kidnapping place, but you were also able to reach here."

It was then a sudden realization dawned on them.

However, thinking about it carefully, all of this was a coincidence. Though Frederick had some doubts as Lucas was the one who led them to that bar he was still worried about another thing.

"Since you are here, what happened to the kids?"Frederick asked in a grave tone.

"They are safe."

A voice came from behind.

Looking back, they saw Lucas walking towards them with a serene expression.

"Lucas, how do you know?"Roan asked.

Lucas didn't answer him but stared deep into Helford's eyes making him flinch a bit seeing that cold dark gaze.

"Mr. Helford, it seems you have led a pack of dogs to defeat us. However, I have to beg your pardon."Lucas then gave Heilford a vicious glare.

"These dogs of yours are useless."

Under everyone's bewildered gazes, pulling out a button, he clicked on it.

In the next instant, several faint beep sounds reverberated which were followed by an explosion and waves of flames encasing the entire place.

BOOOOOOOM!BOOOM!BOOOM!𝒃𝒆𝙙𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝙡．𝙤𝒓𝙜
