Chapter 78: Evil God Fragments

-----

Yeah, I don't really know what exactly they are, but I really want to know more.

My analysis can only look through their basic info, but I wasn't able to properly see their entire status for some reason.

Perhaps being a reincarnated person makes their souls stronger so they cannot be read by my Ability? I cannot see what Unique Skills they have either, so it is very confusing.

"Well, when we gained consciousness, we were merely two lumps of flesh," Said Takeshi.

"From then on, our minds slept and came back in intervals. We were raised inside cold tubes and strange liquids… we are beings made of many parts fused together into a whole living being similar to a demi-human; we are Homunculus," Said Laura.

"We remember well what that crazy old man had said back then… I think he said we were the vessels of the Dark God or something. That we were made to harbor his powers, and that we were made using parts of his fragments," Said Takeshi.

"It was until very late that we realized what we truly were… We read some of his documents when we were finally left free from the tubes. We were trained to move, read, and more. He gave himself the time to actually make us learn what we were from the beginning," Said Laura.

"We don't take him as a good person, but he did this so we could learn quickly to use our own bodies," Said Takeshi.

"Wait, wait, wait… Hold on a second. The vessels of the Dark God!?" I asked.

The Dark God… A corrupted God that once tried to destroy this world. I don't know much about it, but according to folklore, he was part of the 80 plus gods that resided in this world after having created it. For unknown reasons, he was corrupted and became mad.

The other gods had to defeat him and destroy his body. Each of his fragments ended up leaking tremendous quantities of dark power, which ended up falling around the world and corrupting it with monsters and strong dark energies.

They say that demons originate from his body, and what I mean by demons, I mean the Majin, such as Goblins. Monsters too, are said to come from it, although they also come from dungeons, which the Chaos God made as trials for the mortals. I know that my family in this world used to hold a fragment of the Dark God— a Fragment of Evil, as they call it.

Our ancestor used to be a Hero, and he had sealed this fragment of evil in the holy underground areas of our large territory, where it was something like a treasure, although it couldn't be sold or used. After all, it was a terrifying evil that was being held there.

The whole drama with my family, how they killed my parents, how they killed me, how they destroyed everything in my life, was to get their hands on this.

And now, after getting their hands on it, the entire Kingdom is most likely doing millions of things with it. And the black potions are already one of them.

These potions enhanced the power of anybody and could even be used as fantastic necromancy materials to make overpowered Undead.

And now, they were doing Homunculus projects, trying to use the tiny black crystal that grew around the Fragment of Evil as a core of a half-monster half-demi-human homunculus. It seems Laura and Takeshi are the first successful subjects… and there were many failed other ones.

We had fought two of them recently. The wolf and the slime who were homunculus too, or chimera, I don't know. But they were failures and were reduced to mere monsters whose minds were being constantly tortured.

They explained this and more as we continued speaking.

"So they're trying to make a new living being that has the power of fully wielding the fragment of evil… For what purpose?" Pondered Lucifer.

"What's the point of doing something so horrendous… if the Dark God can really be revived through such a method… wouldn't everything end? Why are humans so obsessed with self-destruction…" Sighed Emeraldine.

"The scientist said that our existences would bring a new era…." Said Takeshi.

"But we didn't want this… we wanted to live freely. After dying in our previous lives, we wanted to live this life without regrets," Said Laura.

"I see… I understand how it feels," I said.

"This… Is this being run by the government? Or the Vampires in the shadows… or wait, both?" Lucifer pondered once again.

"The scientist that created us was a Vampire Subordinate," Said Laura.

"So those damn Vampires are in this too? Are they in everything bad that's going on?" I muttered.

"Most likely, after retrieving the Fragment of Evil from your family, the Kingdom had begun experiments on it, and many pieces of this fragment, such as the leftover secretions and outgrows that this fragment produces. Also, with this black crystal, which they named Demonite, and that black liquid named Miasma… they're most likely trying to make weapons of war with them… The Kingdom is ambitious. They are colluding with the Vampires families who have the resources and the personnel to create such experiments… This is a guess, but perhaps now that the Demon Kingdom is gone, they want to expand. There are many other Human Kingdoms, after all, right? They want to conquer everything using this Fragment of Evil as their greatest weapon," Explained Lucifer.

"Ugh, no way… This is awful," I muttered.

"It all gets more intricate as we delve deeper. This entire conspiracy has been going on for much longer than we initially believed. Perhaps even before getting your family's fragment… Could it be… they already had fragments beforehand? This is why my lord, the Demon King, feared humans so much. They have no considerations towards self-preservation nor the preservation of the world… they are barbaric and greedy. By experimenting more and more with these fragments… they're risking the entire world to collapse into Chaos!" Shouted Lucifer.
