(MC POV)
The red sli actually resigned itself and told everything it knew, which was surprisingly not a lot.
It seems like the sli was rely another pawn in the Dark Sect used to monitor this branch Sect, it wasn't even part of an elite group or anything like that.
Although it did give an interesting fact: this sli used to be a human male.
Apparently they had soone there who was capable of transforming other people into monsters. The only problem is that they can't turn back into humans once they were turned into monsters.
I asked why soone like him would consent to turn into a sli and the only thing he said was, "Tentacles."
Well, good enough.
Too bad he never got the chance to use them in the way he wanted to since he had to focus on completing his mission first. At least the girls and boys here weren't traumatised by his fetishes.
I did ask what he was trying to monitor around here and he claid he was waiting for soone to show up. He didn't know who it was but he was instructed to simply wait here until soone found him.
He wasn't even sure if the eting between us was what they had expected or if it was ant to be soone else he should have been waiting for.
How curious...
If it was the forr… Could the current leader of the Dark Sect be soone with so sort of future sight? Or were they just expecting my return and left him here as a distraction while they did sothing elsewhere?
Unfortunately, this sli guy was also just a pawn so he doesn't know anything more than that.
I was so tempted to just go ahead and find out who was the mastermind using omniscience, but I decided I'll just let the surprise hold for now.
'But why, Master?'
Why not? I'm in no hurry to know. Could they even do anything to even if they tried?
'Mmm… I suppose not.'
And I bet if they could, you would have Ended them long ago, wouldn't you?
'Ufufufu~ That goes without saying, Master. Such trash is not supposed to exist in the first place.'
Uh-huh, now I'm plenty worried about just exactly how many existences have you snuffed out throughout your ti following around.
'Ara, ara? What is there to worry about Master? The Universe looks to be existing just fine without them.'
I can't say anything if you put it that way…
Anyway, this Dark Sect mastermind isn't soone like that right?
'Oya? Does Master want to spoil it?'
No, no, it's a simple yes or no question.
'Ufufufu~ In that case, there's nothing for you to worry about, Master.'
Yeap, then I'm fine with not knowing for now. If I already know who it is, the question of why can't I just teleport right in front of them and chop their head off would co up next. Then I'll just go back to being bored again…
Hmm… I feel like I'm forgetting sothing here but I can't rember what…
I turned my attention back to the red sli in front of . At least it's being quite compliant after it knew who I was, he wasn't even trying to lie. Not that he was helping much since I know he's only answering the questions I'm asking but he's not volunteering information I didn't ask about.
"Were you told what you should do when you were found? Either with your identity being exposed or by the person you were supposed to wait for?" I asked.
The sli wiggled its body, mimicking the shaking of a head, "No… If I was to be exposed, I should have simply committed suicide… I was told I would know who I was supposed to et and more instructions would be given out when I do et them."
"Interesting. So where is the base of your Dark Sect?"
The sli hesitated for a second before sighing, "We're currently based in the country of Sun in the trading city of Sinan."
"And how would I go about finding this base of yours?"
"Unfortunately, that is information that I can't give because even I do not know. We do not enter the base unless we are ordered by one of the higher ups to. Then we would be teleported inside by proxies."
Huh, that must an they are a pretty powerful group to afford that kind of security.
Which is weird since they didn't show this kind of power when I dealt with them and summoning Lilith wouldn't even have been a problem.
Unless this has sothing to do with her again?
No, that can't be. She's still off finding her siblings and I doubt she'd co back here like that.
Now I know why there's a reason why she had certain conditions to co here and had to be summoned instead of just simply teleporting here.
Because this place has such a low natural concentration of Elental Quarks, if a being like her tries to pass through into this World, her own innate energy would cause this world to collapse in itself from her own power if she isn't careful.
Of course beings like Iris and I didn't matter since we were basically the universe itself, but even those 'Great Ones' couldn't co here without this World imploding if the conditions weren't right.
So if it's not Lilith then… Don't tell it's another one of her siblings?
That's actually quite possible and if you think about it, it does make sense. They might be using the Dark Sect to look for after they summoned them here like they did with Lilith.
Although whether this child likes or hates is another question…
Oh well, I'll deal with it when the ti cos. I guess I can eventually take a trip there with my disciples to go look around, it's not good for them to just stay ho and train all the ti anyway.
Now cos the question of what I should do with this red sli? I never actually promised that he would live since leaving here whole in body but dead in mind also counts as leaving here in one piece.
I looked down at the sli, "So is there anything else I should know from you?"
"No, not at all," he answered without hesitation.
I gave it a shooing motion, "Very well, then you can leave."
He stayed there silently for a few seconds before blurting out, "Re… Really? Just like that? You'd let leave?"
"Of course, I said so, didn't I? You chose the easy way so you can leave here in one piece. Now leave before I change my mind."
The red sli imdiately hopped away towards the door, moving as though his life depended on it.
"You're really letting him leave like that, Master?" Xun Guan questioned.
"Not really. Iris?"
The mont the sli leapt out of the building, Iris snapped her fingers and the red sli's existence Ended.
There were no dramatic effects or anything like that, he just simply disappeared.
I dusted my hands and stood up.
Now that's done, it also ans I'm done with this branch Sect.. So I guess it's ti for to go ho.
