(TW: This chapter will contain some pretty morbid and graphic scenes, so for anyone with a light stomach, I would advise considering skipping this chapter.)
Raze wasn't aware the storeroom had another floor aside from the first two, which is why this new bottom floor caught his attention.
He almost wanted to just ignore it and leave, but for some reason, the strange noise and light coming from it drew him in.
And it made him risk taking a peak.
This could potentially be a very poor decision if there was something dangerous inside, but he still chose to check it out in case there was something valuable inside.
Maybe he was being too careless and greedy, but he didn't care.
As Raze poked his head inside to sneak a glance, what he saw left him speechless.
**
A vile, disgusting stench hanged in the air that almost made Raze pass out.
And yet the smell contained a sort of weird, addictive, sweet smell that dulled the senses and made one forget about their surroundings.
It almost made even Raze pass out in a daze, and yet the sheer shock and disgust that he was experiencing kept him wide awake.
Even if he would have preferred not to,.
~plap~
~plap~
This was the only sound resonating in the basement, as no one spoke.
There were multiple small wooden cages scattered around the basement, and on a close look inside, one could see what was inside.
Multiple naked kids stripped of their clothes were lying atop each other inside every cage.
Their eyes had a lost look, unable to understand anything as Drool fell down from their face and landed on their strip body.
Multiple similar scenes could be observed around the basement.
And yet, this wasn't even the worst scene in the basement.
All the kids in these cages, through their little mindless eyes, looked to the middle of the room, perhaps attracted by the only source of noise.
Just like them, Raze's eyes were fixed on the scene.
They were wide open as blood threatened to come out of them. He wanted to barf, but he didn't, and he wanted to look away, but he didn't.
Little girls stripped of their clothes and dignity with disgusting bloated bellies laid on the floor with eyes without focus and drool falling down their faces.
As goblins with disgusting, abhorrent smiles on their horrid faces continued pounding,.
The goblin was looking towards the ceiling, almost as if enjoying pure euphoria, almost like he was high.
A similar scene was repeated beside them as four more goblins continued ruining innocent little kids.
As all this was happening, the little girls made no sound or noise as they just laid there, almost as if they were not even alive, yet they very much were.
Perhaps it would have been better if they weren't.
Normally, intercourse was supposed to be something very pure, with a desire for the continuation of the bloodline.
But what was in front of him was anything but pure.
It was vile, harrowing, and something that should have never happened.
Raze couldn't even put into words the emotions he was feeling.
Barely a few seconds after stumbling on this scene, Raze felt his body moving.
In his head, there were no thoughts or emotions.
His body moved completely on its own without any conscious thought from him.
There were no weapons in his hand as he moved bare handed towards monsters for the first time ever.
Even the torch from earlier had already been put back into his inventory.
He moved through the basement barehanded, his footsteps resounding through the basement, contrasting the noise from earlier.
And yet no one in the place seemed to notice.
The goblins were just about to finish their business, but it was mere moments before they could enjoy a kind of joy they had never felt before.
A strong, firm hand grabbed his neck and forcefully pulled him out of the girl.
But the goblin didn't even look behind, as the forceful pull was enough for it to release himself in front of him on the girl who he was using to pleasure himself earlier.
At the same time as he released himself, the hold on his neck closed as his neck was crushed spraying green blood everywhere.
Even with blood splattered on him, Raze no longer cared and didn't even feel his heart beat anymore.
With one goblin dead, he moved towards the others, who didn't seem to care about their dead brother.
Raze pulled out another goblin, but the fate of this one wasn't as painless.
It started with the hand that Raze forcefully pulled, splattering blood out.
Which was apparently enough to wear out the drug that had been affecting them as it screamed in pain, or at least tried to.
"KRA-" Before it could scream, Raze's left hand grabbed its face with enough force to rip and break its teeth.
Since its mouth was forced shut, both the blood and teeth were swallowed inside by the goblin.
And this was the start, as Raze one by one ripped out each and every limb of all the goblins, always making sure to end with destroying their groins.
He didn't directly kill any of the goblins, instead letting the pain do its job for them.
As what was once euphoria and pleasure was transformed into terror and life-ending pain right in front of their eyes,.
The whole basement was now covered in goblin blood, with only drugged little kids and Raze left.
There was some sort of drug in the air that dulled human sense and increased goblin libido from what he could understand.
It was even affecting Raze, but he simply didn't care about his body, resisting the effects with the power of pure disgust and hatred.
He moved towards one of the little girls and asked, trying his best to show compassion, but his tone was unable to express any sort of empathy and ended up coming out cold.
"Do you want to live?"
Hearing his question, the girl didn't even take a second to think, but she didn't speak, almost like she simply couldn't, instead resorting to violently shaking her head as tears came down her eyes for the first time.
"I understand"
After this exchange, he took out a sword from his inventory and, in one swift motion, beheaded her, ending her life as painlessly as possible.
A similar fate awaited all the other kids in the basement.
As he took the kids lives, he couldn't help but remember a quote that he had learned in his last life.
'Ruthlessness is mercy'
Once he was done killing everyone, Raze stood all alone in the basement, covered in the blood of both goblins and humans.
He wanted to cry to express the feelings he was having, but no tears came out.
In fact, he felt nothing; maybe the drug in the air had finally started affecting him. He didn't know, but what he did know was.
"They must all die "
What was once excitement and joy at obtaining all sorts of different weapons had now been completely twisted and morphed in just a few moments.
All that he was left with was an empty heart and regret for his curiosity.
