Chapter 217: How Mad The World Is

"Don't raise your guard on me. Even though I am looking like this, I am not going to harm you. Besides, it seems you also know some strange arts too. If that is the case, you are not going to be in danger at all."

Currently, I am following the big black cat that appeared earlier after fighting against the abominations that suddenly appeared earlier.

"Tell me, what are those things?" I asked the black cat.

"You can call me Kurai human, also, if you are asking about those things that you killed earlier, then they are the remnants of the experiments done to them. They are one of the things that have been constantly under experiments in the past and when they can no longer handle it, their bodies break down, making what you are currently seeing on them right now."

"Experiments?"

"Yes, they should be previously a normal, either a rat, a rabbit, cat, or a dog depending on the experiments. However, there are also some occasions that the experiments do not just range on animals, but also on humans too."

"So are you saying among the monsters I killed, there are some that were previously a human?"

"Nope. Those things are just from animals. As for the humans, they are on another scale and they mutated differently compared to the monsters you just beat up. Don't worry, you haven't killed any person just yet."

"Just yet?"

"We don't know whether you will be killing one. Almost all of the mutated creatures are hostile to living creatures especially a human. It is a rare instance for an experimented creature to remain its sanity after all of the torment it got."

"Like you?"

"Yes. In my case, I didn't suffer much from the experimentations and managed to keep myself sane. However, some are not as strong-minded as me. They might have already broken down as soon as the experiment begins."

"Who is doing these horrible things? Why is this person doing this?"

"I am afraid I don't know. I just managed to escape right now due to you triggering the trap that was meant to capture the one who just entered the premises without any sort of approval to the higher one. But if it was approved, there is no way I would be walking around right now."

We continue to walk on the hallway that seems to lead deeper into the "facility" that this mansion hides.

"Where are we going now?"

"I am not too familiar with this place but I have passed by here a few times back then when I was still being experimented. I am just leading you to the deepest area since it seems like you are looking for something related to this facility."

I didn't respond to Kurai since my real goal is to find my father. Although it is not part of my goal to look for the situation of the mansion's facility, this is something that has taken my attention. To think that experimentation on living beings, converting them to monstrous things is happening in real life. I thought it was just a plot in movies, novels, and even in games just to make an antagonist or a monster for the climax part but it seems like I was wrong.

As we dwell deeper, I heard the scream that I heard earlier. This time, it is louder and it is coming in this place.

"What's going on?"

"It seems like it is in the process of making some experiments on a poor victim. I didn't expect that they would still keep on doing that wretched way."

"Should we save them?" I look at Kurai.

"If I would be the one to be the one on the say, I won't do it. It is risky, dangerous, and most likely, the person you are going to save will no longer be someone you can save."

Kurai is right. Even if you can try to save all of them, that doesn't mean you can save them without any complications or even setbacks.

"Let's proceed further."

As we move to the next hallway, a swarm of those failed things appeared once again but this time, they are already out when we arrived. The moment the swarm noticed us, they started to get hostile and they begin their attack.

Seeing the situation, I quickly materialize the Versatile Weapon and start attacking the creatures that come to me. As for Kurai, it seems like Kurai is not affected by the attacks.

"The creatures here do not view me as a living being and they already differentiate me as one of them so instead of attacking me, they will focus all on you so I can't do anything to help you with it."

"Damn, you got a good way to screw people up huh?" I gritted my teeth as I mumbled up the situation.

With the monsters appearing one by one, I quickly have to dispose of them all and release them from their suffering. With my Versatile Weapon quickly disposing of all of them, I managed to clear and send all of the experimented creatures to the afterlife. 

KISHAAAA!

The creatures are all relentless and I am getting troubled with them. It was like they are trying to undergo suicide and die in my hands. They are desperate for death.

Just as I continue to dispose all of them, a tall humanoid appeared, with some distorted parts on the guy's face.

"Be careful boy, that is a human who turned into a monster. From the looks of his complexion and status, it is no longer possible for us to save him from things. The only thing that would relieve him from that position is his own death."

The creature still features the same thing as a human. However, his sanity is gone and his body is ready to burst. He is now showing hostile eyes towards me, which means he is going to be a dangerous creature for anyone. One kill and you are dead. And from the looks of it, he lacks the same way Kurai does.

As soon as I cut down the last small creature, it started to move and it is now going into me, with its distorted expression.

"Watch out! It is in for the kill!" Kurai warned.

Knowing it will attack mindlessly, I decided to fully use the tactic and kill the enemies on sight.

I changed my weapon into katana form and in one swift strike, I decapitated the creature, killing it instantly. Flicking the blade to the side, the blood dyed the katana blade. I look at the dead body of the failed experiment and silently pray for the soul of the poor guy.

We continue to move on the facility. And this time, we got into a much bigger scale of the situation. The Katakura family's mansion is not a normal mansion, or a mansion converted asylum. It is the definition of madness. Only people who are ready to keep mixing and experimenting all by themselves.

The creatures are still appearing wherever I look.

"How come there are so many of these things? It was like they are mass-produced?!"

"I don't know the details but I heard that they are trial runs for the experimentations. They needed a smaller one to test out some experiments and try to see the reactions before they perform it on a bigger individual. Since these guys are all here appearing and are all coming small, I must say that these unfortunate souls are all experiments gone wrong."

Now I am piecing together that the Katakura family had something to do with the disappearance of the people around. I am also fearing that my father might be also one of the victims. Though I am hoping that is not the case here, it has a very big possibility that my father has also gotten involved in this mess since the loan sharks said that the Katakura Family had some sort of feud with my father.

As we move deeper and deeper, a person suddenly appeared, wearing a lab coat and is currently pushing a cart with a cage being pushed. There is something inside the cage though I can't see it fully due to the cloth that was being covered on it.

The scientist was startled when he saw me approaching along with Kurai.

"Huh?! What the hell?! An intruder managed to push this far?!"

Seeing me continue to approach, he decided to run. However, I am not someone who will just pass the chance to question someone especially if he is affiliated with this facility.

BANG! BANG!

I shoot his two legs, disabling his ability to walk in the process.

"Don't you dare run away, I am not done with you just yet. Answer my questions before I run out of patience and shoot this gun straight to your brain."

"I don't care if you shoot that to my brain! I won't tell you, anything intruder!"

BANG!

"AAAAAAGGGGHHHHHH!" the scientist cried as I shot his leg once again.

"Now, talk. Just so you know, I can do this all day.. Tell me the details, full and detailed enough."
