"What?" The slim clothed demon looked at the buff one with impatience.
"It seems that there is someone that's missing sir…" the buff demon spoke awkwardly.
"Huh?" the annoyance on the slim demon's face slightly intensified...
"According to the information we received from the seed, the item set left by those cursed suppressors was a set consisting of 4 items, which means that there must have been at least four bewitched humans that would descend here, but…"
"Hmmm, there is no normal way to resist the ancient bewitching mark, it's the method that almost made us prevail against those filthy inferior creatures in the ancient war, if it was not for those defiling suppressors, we would have already preached our sacred beliefs upon the whole realm…" the slim demon's face turned dreamy as if he fantasizing about something before it took a turn for the worse, turning into a face that's full of ferocity and anger...
"But sir, they might have found a way to somehow resist it, and with these three reaching this place, the fourth one must be here as well, he might as well just be the one who somehow escaped the bewitchment, in that case…"
"You like thinking too much about it, don't you? Even if you are an artificial Enlightenment Processor, you should just act like a proper one by shutting up and following my orders as the overseer, it's because of slacking demons who overthink stuff like you that we keep pushed down and suppressed!" the slim demon who didn't seem to be the cautious type, instead being an impatient one only grew furious as the buff demon kept spouting his suspicious bullshit…
"But…"
"But that, but this… Don't you have anything better to do or say? We don't need to worry about that 'Fourth human' piece of garbage, he probably just died when he went through the 'KeyHole' left behind by those piece of sh*t suppressors, all we need to do for now is to use these inferiors here and we would be on of the first bases to have managed to break out! I might even be able to receive a true 'Baptism' and rank up if everything goes as planned!" getting his eyes all dreamy once again, the slim demon simply stated his target and thought of process….
"... Yes, sir…"
"That's more like it, now go a shackle these stupid inferiors before removing the bewitching mark off them as they seem to be going crazy to the point of death, we still need them alive to break the empty Enlightening Core when we are fully prepared!"
"Yes sir…" the buff demon no longer argued as he took out a strange looking sack that seemed to darken the whole space with just it's opening being expanded as three dark dots flew out of the heads of the pair of humans who were already screaming their hearts out, and the girl who just stood there with her eyes closed, as they…
"Why did you die Cla…"
"Valley you piece of s…"
"..."
Completely blacked out as the three collapsed to the ground almost at the very same time…
"Good. now put them somewhere safe and get the 'Outer Key' from them," the slim demon nodded as he said as a matter of factly…
"Yes sir…"
The buff demon said his same reply as he bent down in the ground to check the collapsed bodies as he started searching in a not too violet way, before taking a purple piece of crystal and passing it by the bodies as if he was scanning them.
"Guards get some shackles for these inferiors here, we still need to keep them for the moment." the slim demon called out as he didn't bother to see the buff demon's process…
"Yes sir!"
"It's n.. Her…" the buff demon muttered...
"Hmmm, what did you just say, fake processor?" hearing the buff demon's almost inaudible mutters, the slim demon was at the process of getting angry once again…
"The 'Outer Key' is not here… it's not on any of the these three…"
"What do you mean it isn't on any of these inferiors? Can you stop being so useless and just do your work correctly?! The bewitching mark must have definitely given them the thought to grab both the 'Inner Key' and the 'Outer Key', there is no way they could defy it! Hey you, the guard over there, bring someone else to check these inferiors and find the 'Outer Key', it seems like our fake processor can't stop acting stupidely just becuase I didn't give him a chance to tell us more of his stupid conspiration theories…" the slim demon said irritatedly as he gestured for one of the guards that came to take back the 'Prisoners'...
"Yes sir!" The guard gave a deep bow before running in the direction of the main settlement in the base, leaving behind his fellow guards who were gathering to help with the 'Prisoners' after finishing their mission to circle around the base's borders as they waited for the humans to appear…
"But sir! If my earlier theory is correct, then it all makes sense! The bewitching mark doesn't give out direct orders, they only give vague ones, something like 'Collect all the crystals', if someone who wasn't affected has indeed entered first somehow, then they-" the buff demon refused to give up as he tried to use his logical deductions once more but…
"Did I forget something? Ah yes, I forgot to tell you to just shut up! We don't need you help anymore! Just quieten down and wait till the true experts come and do their work." the slim demon completely ignored him…
"No sir, I won't shut up, this decides the safety of the whole base, just because you were born from a high blood doesn't mean that you can just shut me up like this!"
"Oh, should I use my 'Authority' then...?" just as the slim demon put his hands in his pocket as the buff demon suddenly froze in his place…
"Huh? Did I just think too much about it?" the sound of a young man sounded out from no source...
