Chapter 66 - Why must all things be in blood?

"Why did you start working for him?" Satoya asked, that question lingering in the air for a couple minutes before Yurina sighed, "I begged for my life." 

"This was 2 years ago, I was having fun with my friends, doing karaoke one night," She said, the atmosphere became even more dense, "after that, my friends and I were going to walk to my parent's restaurant," She started cleaning her glasses with her blood stained lab coat, "on our way there, we blanked out, only to discover ourselves here." 

"We were all in an experiment chamber exactly like this one.. I saw blood dripping down from the ceiling to discover all of our parents hanged, or specifically, a ceiling fan, made of the amalgamation of all of our parents, and close relatives."

"Everytime the fan spun, that..thing would scream, through the mouths that were still visible on the fan, and would also vomit a small marble, that marble within 3 seconds would turn into a needle, with a humanoid body, and that needle would start piercing us without any mercy." She started crying, before continuing, "that wasn't even the worst of it all, Roland would personally walk up to any of us and inject a drug, the drug induced blend of mental disorders, or psychoses, but he augmented that to the most inhumane level." 

"The minute he injected one of them, they would start screaming, physical and mental pain, the pain of being eternally pierced by that, needle thing, and that drug, it was too much for them to handle," She wiped off her tears, "before he injected that drug into me, before one of those needle things pierced me again, I begged."

2 years ago. 

"Please! I'll do anything! I'll be your servant anything please!" She begged as Roland was looking down at her holding a syringe with a clear liquid, a liquid that visibly seemed like water. "Servant you say? What makes you so different?" Roland asked, with his smile widening, then he laughed, laughter that was heard throughout the lab. 

"What a ludicrous request!" He laughed, he squatted down in front of her, still holding the syringe in the air. His gaze was sharp and energetic, "I-I….please.." Yurina cried, desperate to not end up like her friends, who were screaming in such a way that it was so high pitched that Yurina's ears started to bleed. 

"Fine, but I am expecting great work from you." He said, before walking to the girl next to her, who was still sane but was screaming from the sight and screeches of the experiment chamber. "I'll be your loyal servant! Please.!" The girl cried, Roland in an indifferent expression, took out another syringe, then stabbed both of them into the girl's neck. 

"Because that girl right there wanted to save herself, that left me no choice but to give the next person an extra dose.." He said as he was pointing toward Yurina, "Y-yurina?! You, I hope you rot in he-" She tried to curse at her but the effects of the double dosages were instant, she was immediately scratching her face, scratching so badly that her own skin in flesh started to peel off despite her nails being ripped off by the force. 

Fast forward a couple weeks later, Yurina is hesitating holding a syringe looking at a defenseless man, "you'll do anything correct?" Roland asked, "then inject that into your boyfriend." The man was gagged, muffled words that were indecipherable were spoken, before tears were raining down from the man's eyes. Yurina's eyes began to become tearful, then she stabbed the man in the lower part of the neck, then she started sobbing, "I'm sorry, I'm sorry, I'm sorry!" She cried, with Roland slowly approaching and removing the gag from the man's mouth. 

"Die in the depths of hell." The man said before he started deforming, the process was slow with the man's arms becoming larger at an alarming rate, and another shrinking and twisting until it erupted into what looked like a shield made from the man's own arm. 

"I put the blood of a level 9 Iya, that was also purified, into that syringe, now watch." Roland said as Yurina started stumbling back, horrified at the beast forming. "Hm, wasn't what I was expecting, interesting, purifying the blood of an Iya makes the transformation more instant.." Roland said as he was nodding at the transforming Iya in fascination. 

He then noticed Yurina glaring at him, "Got any questions Yurina?" He asked with a smile, the smile being filled with malicious intent. But she didn't say anything…Just too numb to even speak.
