Chapter 518: A Savior’s Duty

Pete moved slowly, putting all his weight on one leg, then another, holding on to his sword as if it was the only thing that kept him upright. Pete zigzagged through the dark cell, moving through the copulating bodies toward his target.

Pete tried not to look directly where he was going even as he approached ever closer. The images of the few excruciatingly long seconds he was unfortunate to witness as well as the continuous sub-human grunts and cries were all the guidance Pete needed. He did not need any more. Even when Pete stared right at his feet as he dragged himself across the unremarkable, stained, sticky stone he saw that.

The change in the vocals indicated the change of partners that Ivan performed his acts with. Pete grew increasingly anxious as he approached those sounds. He managed to never take a life until this day. He thought it impossible. Immoral. And now, as he approached, Pete remembered the ideologies of his previous life, the life before he opened the door. How foolish he was.

And yet, even now, standing just a few short steps from Ivan’s naked back, Pete hesitated. He knew there was no going back after this. Striking an unaware, defenseless man’s back. The last shreds of his previous self stayed his hands.

Even such a beast, Pete thought. The others surely won’t defend him. No one could. If we all apprehend him, lock him up as the sick animal as he is, maybe I’ll be able to—

Pete saw a flash of hazel hair swing across the cum-stained floor underneath Ivan’s bulky back. Pete recognized the toned thighs that wrapped around Ivan’s waist. He instantly recognized the fingers of the hand he hoped one day to hold. He raised his sword and swung down hard. Again. And again. And again. Again. Again. Again.

Pete struck the twitching body across the back with rage-filled, chaotic hits, but even in this frenzied state Pete’s scrawny arms prevented him from generating enough force to cut through the spine even as he mutilated Ivan’s back. And that was fine. Perfect even!

“You were right!” Pete laughed a little as he swung his sword from side to side, making increasingly light cuts across Donald’s legs. “I’m going to save Remi! Only I can do it!”

“THEN GO SAVE HEEEER!!” Donald bawled as he tried to crawl away from Pete.

“That’s what I’m doing!” Pete shouted as he made another cut. “By ridding this world of the likes of you! The worst of scum! Taking advantage of our pure love for your sick perversions! You don’t deserve to live! You can’t save Remi! You can’t save anyone! But I can! I’m different from you, degenerates!”

“I’m SORRYY!! I’M SOO SOOORRRYYYY! UUAAAAGH!! PLEASE! AAGH!! PLEASE, I BEG YOU!!”

“It’s no use!! You were right! Ha-ha-ha! You were right and you didn’t even know it! But I know it now! I’m different! Only me! I’m different from you! I’m different from these simple-minded barbarians! Only I can save Remi! You were right all along, ha-ha-ha! So, go ahead and die! Die so that I can save Remi! She won’t be safe until you’re all dead! So, die!”

“P-phlease—”

“Please die! For Remi’s sake! You all have to die so that she can live! You hear that, Remi!? I’ll save you! Ha-ha! I’ll save you! And then we’ll finally be together! UAHAHAHAHAHA!”
