Chapter 167: Isekai Slaves

Chapter 167: Isekai Slaves

In the hidden cabin inside the forest, there is an underground laboratory where Witch usually prepares her potions, stores materials, and stays hidden from the rest of the world.

This place is spacious so she assigned me a place where I can do my experiments so I prepared my lab rats.

I first disinfected my first lab rat, put a white coat on it, strapped it to a chair, removed the top of its skull, and formed needles of black blood to begin neural reprogramming.

Witch approached me curiously and she seemed to want to ask a lot of questions, but she also didn't want to interrupt my work which I thought was a good character trait of hers.

"The brain is divided into different areas with specific functions, by stimulating a certain area while showing subliminal images you can plant new thoughts, modify the personality of an individual and even alter memories..." – Via [Reader's Madness ] I delved into the memory of the lab rat and rewrote its memories and life experiences.

"Fascinating..." - Witch sighed with admiration.

It took me 5 minutes to destroy the memory and personality of the lab rat and in another 5 minutes, I made a new basic personality based on the behavior of a rabbit.

For now, this is only a superficial work, but it is only to see if the brainwashing raised by scientific means can be removed with magic.

I put the top of the lab rat's skull back on, healed the wound with [Hamon], and then released its bonds.

The lab rat was now a rabbit so instead of standing up as a human would, it sat on the ground like a rabbit and did a few hops.

I looked at Witch. – "Do you have magic to remove curses and mind control spells?"

Witch nodded and began to chant a spell causing a white light to cover the lab rat.

The rat looked at the light curiously, then jumped up again as if it didn't understand what was happening.

"Amazing..." - Witch smiled in the same way that a mad scientist would and then took out a small glass vial from inside her cloak.

Witch approached the rat, grabbed it by the neck, and forced it to ingest the substance inside the vial. Then she released the rat and looked at it expectantly.

The rat seemed scared to be grabbed by the neck and hopped away from Witch like a rabbit.

"Impressive!" - Witch shouted with a maniacal smile. – "Mind control that cannot be removed with magic at the level of The Fallen Goddess... This is impressive!"

I looked at the empty vial in Witch's hand, there was a strange smell coming from that vial...

Witch noticed my look and smiled. – "This is a healing position that I made by combining several medicinal herbs and the fluids of The Fallen Goddess, the healing powers of that woman are so absurd that even her saliva can be used as a healing elixir"

"If she is so impressive, how did you get saliva from her?" – I asked with doubts.

"The Reincarnated rely too much on their abilities and see themselves as invincible beings" - Witch shrugged. – "With my transformation magic many times I have turned into animals to watch them, but even though it is easy to approach them, it is very dangerous to try to sneak attack them since they all have an innate instinct to detect killing intent so I can only get samples without daring to attack them"

Oh, that's great.

Since I have always seen people as expendable objects since I was a child, I am unable to emit killing intent and even when I kill other people, I only see it as a casual action comparable to cutting ham.

If the Reincarnated blindly trusts their abilities then I can kill them one at a time with ambushes after separating them from their allies...

In this way, I carried out several experiments with the help of Witch and discovered interesting information.

1) Holy magic can nullify the insanity effects that my [Reader's Madness] generates on other entities, but that magic cannot harm my black blood nor can it purify my own mental disorders since black blood is not considered a negative effect and it is actually something beneficial for my body.

In short, I am a beneficial disease so medicine cannot kill me.

2) The effects of fear, despair, putrefaction, fatigue, anguish, and agony caused by [Enemy of Humanity] can only be nullified by The Fallen Goddess magic, and any other healing magic is ineffective.

3) The Reincarnated will deal extra damage to me when I activate my title [Enemy of Humanity] but at the same time, I will deal extra damage to them so I need to get rid of The Fallen Goddess first as she can heal her allies making her my biggest obstacle.

4) Deep brainwashing can't be removed by magical means, but perfect brainwashing takes me six hours so it's a slow method.

5) [Anti-Rasen] can weaken the effects of magic, even the Returners' special skills, but it's a huge drain on energy so instead of focusing [Anti-Rasen] on nullifying the enemy's magic it's a lot better to cover my body with [Anti-Rasen] as a form of armor.

6) [Rasen] can remove magic barriers and defenses, but it has the same weakness as [Anti-Rasen] so it's better to use the simplest method, cover my fists in energy, and beat idiots to death.

In addition to all this, Witch has been collecting samples of hair, nails, saliva, sweat, and dead skin from the Reincarnated to do experiments and find their weaknesses so I asked her to deliver several of these samples and made my black blood absorb them to use my title [Super Predator] to see more weaknesses of the Reincarnated.

I finished my experiments when it was getting dark so I left the underground lab to make food. L1tLagoon witnessed the first publication of this chapter on Ñøv€l--B1n.

Even if I don't have a biological need to eat, cooking relaxes me.

When I came out of the underground area I saw four women suitably dressed as... Maid?

"I can not deny that humans are idiots and greedy by nature" - I shrugged. – "But my idiocy and greed makes me seek to kill every idiot who hurts my lovers, so if you win my affection, I will kill anyone who is your enemy"

The woman seemed puzzled by my words and then she looked at Witch. It seems that this wolf girl has more trust in Witch since she is not human.

"You can trust this man" - Witch smiled. – "He is the only reliable human in this chaotic world"

If I'm the most trustworthy human then this world is screwed...

The wolf girl still mistrusted me, but she still bowed. – "My name is Setsuna from the ice wolf tribe of the beaskin race... I do not trust you, but if what you say is true, I am willing to give you my body, my life, and my soul as long as you help me to kill the humans who attacked my home"

(Author's Note: Setsuna from the anime/manga/novel Kaifuku Jutsushi no Yarinaoshi)

Is it worth facing an army in order to get this girl's affection?

...Well, I had to conquer a world to make Ada my wife, this is acceptable.

"Fine, then I'll take care of that matter" - I replied with a smile.

Anyway, I'm going to decrease the human population so this is an easy request, besides, I see that this girl has great potential as a fighter and I like her ears.

Are [King of Monsters] and [Monster Girl Tamer] influencing my tastes?

[System Notification: 'Self-knowledge' shows that the user's tastes influence skills and titles, not the other way around]

...I will ignore that I have the title of Lolimancer...

I looked at the last girl who was similar to Yuel. She has brown skin, pointed ears, and white hair, but even though both girls seemed to be of the same species, the smell of both of them was different, and actually, this girl's smell is a bit Witch-like.

"Cecyl Pharott, member of the demon race" - The girl looked at me with concern as if she feared that I would become hostile.

(Author's Note: Cecyl Pharott from the manga/novel Isekai De Skill Wo Kaitai Shitara Cheat Na Yome Ga Zoushoku Shimashita: Gainen Kousa No Structure)

Witch explained to me that even though the inhuman races are discriminated against by humans, demons are the most hated beings by humans since the Dark Queen is of that species.

I smiled and gestured with my hand for her to come closer.

Cecyl looked a little scared, but she walked over to me.

"You are a demon or any other race is not a problem" - I patted her head which made Yuel pout showing that she is a jealous brat. – "Human, demons, beastkin, elves, witches... The species does not matter, if someone bothers me they are my enemy, if someone does not bother me they are not my enemy, that simple"

"Hey Listen! What the idiot is trying to say is that he will stick his dick in any pretty woman regardless of species!" – Navi shouted with joy preventing me from forming an atmosphere of solidarity.

Fucking idiot...

Since all the women present can see Navi, they heard his words making Roxanne, Yuel, Cecyl, and Setsuna look at me strangely. The most worrying thing is that Yuel seemed expectant.

Damn title Lolimancer...

"Master" - Roxanne looked at me with almost obsessive seriousness. – "Since I was the first to introduce myself, then it is normal for me to be the first to accompany the master, the hierarchy must be important among the slaves"

... Forget what I said about how boring this submissive woman's personality is, she has the potential to become an interesting woman.

The world is full of surprises so I smiled. – "Who knows, maybe I want to start with Setsuna..."

Setsuna showed a sour expression, but what was most striking was that Roxanne's gaze turned grim as her presence became slightly threatening.

This is interesting.
