Chapter 75 - 74 – THE CHANGES (chp63)

It wasn't any better; in fact, the experiment only got worse. The only difference now is that she smiles too much, which is uncomfortable, and she praises me and apologizes a lot. However, she doesn't stop the experiment until she's sure I can't take any more of it.

The only thing that makes it slightly better is that she apologizes after each terrible experiment. But I can assure you, all the experiments are still terrible and horrifying. The only true reward is the rest I am given after each experiment—a decent amount of time for me to recover from the horror I was put through, and enough food for me to try and ease my agony.

I am treated like a toy by her. Children mess around with their toys, break them, torture them, and try to fix what they broke, usually leading to the toy being more torn or broken. Maybe they apologize to the toy, beg it, or praise it, but that doesn't change what the toy has been put through. This is even more pronounced when the "toy" is a living being that can feel pain. Perhaps I should have fought her to the death, but I couldn't. I can't stand the pain I would have to go through. She has already proven she is way stronger than me, and my bones remember it.

I wouldn't dare to have these thoughts around her. I found, or at least estimated, a bit about it, because she could have just faked not hearing me. Adults have already proven they could lie, so what more a child? I tried to call to her from a distance. I do this a lot now, even before I thought of using it as a way of knowing her mind-reading range, since I was usually too tired or weak to even open my mouth. But one day, I called out to her multiple times from my mind, and she didn't answer. So, I turned to stare at her. Only when she felt my eyes on her did she look at me. Only then did I realize the obvious – of course, they also had limits, limits to how far they can be from a being to read the being's thoughts. When she was coming closer, I called out to her many times to see if she would answer me, but she didn't. She did answer later, though a bit irritated. She said, "Think what you want," since my mind had gone a bit distracted from that discovery.

Later, I made sure to measure the distance. From where I believed she couldn't read my thoughts was about a hundred and fifty meters, and when she got closer and questioned me, she was thirty meters away from me. So, her mind-reading range is either thirty or more, but not more than a hundred and fifty meters… but what if she faked not hearing me at the beginning? Then all my thoughts are wrong. Well, none of it matters anyway, because I only think such when I am completely sure I am alone.

There were some experiments that were quite enjoyable, such as the smelling experiment, which tested how far my nose could perceive a very faint smell. It was okay, and I found it quite pleasant to use my nose and sniff something out. However, the most enjoyable test was the food test, where I could eat as much as I wanted before reaching my limit.
