Chapter 240 -240



"Wow, what the hell is this place, and how did you get all these ogres to work for you?" Silk asked, eyeing the ogres laboring in the city.

"You don't need to know. Now, tell me... Why should I let you go?" Anon asked, his smile oozing with confidence.

"I will not say anything about this place to anyone. I promise not to divulge the secret that you have the only child of the great mother, whom she loves more than anything and for whom she would easily kill anyone," Silk spoke, smiling back at Anon.

"Don't play smart with me. I can keep you here, and you will still be unable to tell anyone anything," Anon said, halting his steps and locking eyes with Silk with a deadly serious expression.

"If I go missing and am not found in seven days, my father will deploy the army to search for me. Can you handle my father's wrath?" Silk teased, her smile still apparent.

"I can destroy him in one slap, but intelligent people don't resort to violence, do they?" Anon replied, studying Silk intently.

"You may be able to read minds or control others with your powers, but you can't do that with my father. He has immunity to these skills," Silk said, her smile widening.

"That's why I have another way of feeling your presence. Come with me," Anon said, leading the way toward Sephie's lab.

As they approached Sephie's lab, the gates opened on their own, granting them entry.

"Wow, that was so cool," Silk remarked, impressed by the automated doors.

"Come, let me show you something that will blow your mind," Anon said with a smile.

"Let me guess, some kind of weapon?" Silk guessed.

"Wait... I need something before you change your mind," Anon said, summoning a glass of water and giving it to Silk.

"Water?" Silk questioned.

"Drink it."

"What if I don't want to?"

"Drink it, girl," Anon's eyes glowed purple, and Silk's hand moved on its own as she grabbed the glass and gulped down its contents.

[One new target has been found: Mind Control Ability]

[Would you like to activate the skill?]

'Yes.'

"You don't have to use that skill every time. I would've drunk it if you'd asked more nicely," Silk said, her expression frustrated.

"Yeah, prepare yourself. This will give you a headache," Anon warned as he grabbed her head and used his skill.

<Memory Eater>

Suddenly, all of Silk's memories surged into Anon's brain.

<Memory Alter>

As soon as he used this skill, all of her memories flooded back into her brain.

"Ouccchhhhh.... My head is hurting," Silk shouted as she clutched her head.

"Good, now let's go," Anon said with a smile, leading the way to the main room of the lab.

"What did you do with me just now?" Silk inquired, standing up and following Anon.

"Nothing, just checked if your brain is working or not," Anon replied nonchalantly.

"You did something to my brain, didn't you? Tell me what did you do?" Silk asked seriously.

"I did nothing... Silkky," Anon said, smiling at Silk.

"That name... My mother used to call me that. How do you-" suddenly, something triggered inside her head, and her eyes widened in surprise.

"Y-You read my memories just now, didn't you?" She asked suspiciously.I think you should take a look at

"Nice, you caught that one quickly," Anon said, smiling at Silk.

"What else do you know?" Silk probed.

"Oh, I know many things. I think I know things that even you don't know about yourself," Anon replied cryptically.

"You can't do that. That's not the right thing to do," Silk scolded, her expression filled with anger.

"Oh, and guess what? I know your favorite position to-"

"Noooooo..... Don't speak," Silk cut off Anon by placing her hand over his mouth.

"Hehe... You've got a nice taste, I have to say. Now, come with me," Anon said, sporting a perverted grin.

Anon proceeded forward and entered the room, with Silk following closely behind.

Inside the room, a very disgusting smell permeated the air.

As Silk entered, she saw many dead bodies lying in one corner.

"What the fuck?" She exclaimed, turning to look at Anon.

"What's wrong? Ah, the smell. Don't worry about it," Anon dismissed as he bent down and started drawing something on the floor.

"What are you doing?" Silk asked, holding her nose with her fingers.

"Nothing, just thinking of making a xerox machine," Anon replied, sketching the same circle he had seen inside the lab earlier for cloning.

Anon used the bodies of already deceased adventurers for this purpose. Hundreds of adventurers died daily, and he simply purchased their bodies.

"What machine?" Silk asked, her expression puzzled.

"Don't worry, you'll see in just a minute," Anon replied, completing the circle.

"Let's see... That one," Anon said as he pointed towards the corpse of a female adventurer.

Silk also looked at the corpse that Anon was pointing at.

<Telekinesis>

Suddenly, the body started floating in the air.

"Woahhhhh... Ghooost!" She shouted loudly as she took 3 steps back and observed the body flying into the air.

"Calm down, it's not a ghost. It's just one of my skills," Anon said as the corpse floated towards him.

"What the hell is that skill? How big things can you move with it? Can you make a whole kingdom fly into the air with that ?" Silk asked curiously.

"Shhh... You talk too much," Anon said as he puts his finger on his his lip, indicating her to be silent.

The body landed in the middle of the circle, and Anon began supplying mana to the magic circle.

Suddenly, the body turned into a mass of white light.

After that, Anon pulled out a light yellow-colored liquid from his inventory and poured it on the mass.

"Now... Only remains the shaping," Anon said as he used the final skill.

<Materialisation>

Suddenly, the mass of white light began forming into the body of a human female.

Once it took its shape, the clone's face was revealed, and watching this, Silk's expression changed into one of shock.
