Chapter 49
The insane sex concert came to a rousing close, and I lay sprawled beside the deputy warden.
Semen was dribbling obscenely from both holes, and my expression was half out of it as my body intermittently twitched and trembled.
"Hoho... What a truly lewd bitch?"
The deputy warden approached as if fascinated by my obscene body and naturally began stroking my buttocks.
- Stroke...
A sensation that sent shivers down my spine, yet felt good.
"Hngh, hngggg...."
"What a pleasant ass."
But he didn't seem to have any intention of raping me.
'Is this bastard impotent...'
He touched my buttocks for a while, then sat down on them.
"Ngh.... So heaaavy..."
"Everyone, quiet!! Now I shall carry out the execution of the one remaining prisoner!!"
When the deputy warden spoke in a booming voice, the atmosphere in the prison, which had felt like a concert hall, turned cold.
And here was a man who instinctively knew it was his turn.
A man with a sack over his head, wearing prison clothes and handcuffed behind his back.
"Haaah.... P-please spare me!! Deputy Warden... Please, that, that was a mistake!!"
He wailed, nearly screaming, his voice trembling with fear.
But,
"That won't do. I can't violate the rules I set myself. Didn't I tell you repeatedly? Don't hurt the female prisoners. Male prisoners are everywhere. Do you know how hard it is to find female prisoners?"
The deputy warden rose from my buttocks, approached him, removed the sack, and inspected his face.
"Berhendi... For a condemned man, you've lived about eight years longer than you should have. Still, since I know your face, I'll send you off without pain."
"Aaah... Deputy Warden...!! Deputy Warden!!!"
"Farewell."
The deputy warden extended a hand, and the man's body was caught by psychokinesis and began to rise.
'Crazy... Don't tell me......?'
His body floated into the air like a balloon, and before long, it reached the ceiling of the building.
When the deputy warden withdrew his arm, the man began free-falling straight toward the ground.
'Ugh...'
I turned my head away.
After a while, the desperate screams grew louder, and then I heard a bang!!—the sound of a human head bursting.
About a second later, I heard the sound of blood splattering in every direction and raining down.
- Patter-patter-patter!!
The air in the detention center, which had been filled with heat only moments ago, turned cold. No one could open their mouth, and after seeing the man's death, the deputy warden silently turned around and slowly walked away.
No one spoke until he left.
- Creak, slam!
***
A while later, the body was collected, and everyone returned to their rooms.
I stopped by the infirmary and received treatment, but by the time I came out, breakfast was already over.
Still, this place seemed to have plenty of food, because when I told a guard I was hungry, he gave me three hamburgers.
"Crazy bitch... you're really a total nutcase...?"
I brought the hamburgers back to the room and was eating quietly when the blonde delinquent girl approached me and picked a fight.
"What."
'Don't bother me while I'm eating.'
I pulled the two still-unopened hamburgers toward my chest and glared at her warily.
"No, I don't care about that... But how on earth did you escape?"
A faint spark of life appeared in her eyes. She was hiding it, but I could see some burning emotion deep within them.
'Hmm...'
I sensed my surroundings.
There was one guard nearby—the one who had bought me the hamburgers—and two women in this room pretending to do other things while eavesdropping on our conversation. Several prisoners were passing our room, trying to make eye contact because they wanted to copulate with me.
'It's not time yet.'
"Just got lucky."
"What? Do you seriously think that makes..."
- Wink!
I signaled to the oblivious girl with my eyes, moving them from side to side as if telling her to look around.
"......"
"Haha! I really was lucky!! Of course!!"
'One potential ally.'
The standard way to clear the Floor 11 trial was to slowly gather allies and incite a rebellion in the detention center.
That was why party members were needed to help stir things up, and the trial was designed to make escaping by force practically impossible for a lone person.
If I had forced my way through instead of going to the bathroom on the first day, could I have escaped?
'Tsk... I don't know. This is harder than I thought.'
Modern firearms were a problem, and the deputy warden in particular was no joke.
I still couldn't forget the helplessness I had felt when my body was restrained by his psychokinesis.
No matter how lenient they were toward women, they wouldn't let a woman who had killed a guard live.
In fact, it might have been fortunate that my first escape attempt had fallen into the bathroom trap.
'I need to make a plan.'
Before long, lunchtime arrived, and everyone headed to the cafeteria.
'Let's recruit some useful people while we eat.'
The lunch menu was steak.
- Chomp!!
I took a big bite.
*
After finishing my meal, I quickly returned to my cell.
This is bad...
'Damn bastards... How much aphrodisiac did they put in this?'
My body was seriously heating up. My pussy craved being impaled on a cock right then and there, and juices were streaming out.
My sensitized body felt pleasure from nothing more than contact with my clothes and underwear.
I felt myself gradually losing my reason.
The other three women seemed to be in a similar state. They shut and locked their barred doors, then quietly endured it by masturbating under their blankets.
The men outside called out, asking us to have sex with them, but I ignored them and crawled under my own blanket, fingering my pussy and masturbating to endure it.
"Hngh... Haaah...!"
'This place is insane... If I stay here, I'll really turn into a woman obsessed with cock....'
I skipped dinner.
I was extremely hungry, but I felt that if I ate another meal, I wouldn't be able to control myself.
The guards seemed to know that women new to this place naturally reacted this way, so they didn't say anything. Instead, they smiled and told me to rest.
But they didn't give me any food.
'This won't work... I don't have time to gather allies and prepare the rebellion.'
My pussy was still tingling.
'At least they seem to serve a proper meal in the morning...'
I considered waiting until tomorrow, but no. The more time passed, the more disadvantaged I became.
And once I was completely steeped in the aphrodisiac and pleasure, I felt I might never be able to escape.
'An ally of just one person...'
It was already difficult enough even if all the prisoners rose up, and I had only one ally. It felt like I was deliberately playing on hard mode.
For now, completely winning her over was the best thing I could do.
*
Before I knew it, it was 1 a.m.
Only the faint sleep lights outside illuminated my field of vision.
I had spent the entire day masturbating.
'Now. Let's go.'
I approached her bed.
When I gently lifted her blanket, the blonde delinquent girl opened her eyes and glared at me.
I winked at her and pointed toward the bathroom with my hand, as if telling her to follow me.
The other two women seemed to have fallen asleep from exhaustion after masturbating.
They breathed regularly without moving an inch.
She glanced around for a moment, then quietly followed me.
As soon as I quietly closed the door, she glared at me and asked a question.
"What are the odds? Don't tell me you're saying I should go through exactly what happened to you this morning. I can't endure something like that! I'm not a pervert with a body like yours."
"Well... To be honest, the odds of success are low."
It was absurd to try with two people to carry out a scenario designed for six hundred to fight through.
But it had to be done.
"Before we make a plan, tell me about yourself."
"Right, that's... a reassuring question. My name is Rebecca Ignos. My supernatural ability is fire. My ability grade is Grade 4. And... I used to be a powerless noble from a small kingdom invaded by the Voltia Empire."
According to her, she had never imagined she would be treated like this.
The Voltia Empire had promised to treat the kingdom humanely if it surrendered, but reality was different.
They slowly purged people starting with the upper ranks.
The royal family was all assassinated, while the nobles and high-ranking officials were framed, executed, or sent to detention centers.
Rebecca's parents had fought until the very end to help her escape safely, but they had both died.
"I spent five years as a fugitive... I thought I was finally managing to make a living, so I tried to live a normal life. But I was betrayed... A woman I'd been close with in the back alleys turned me in. If I'd known, I would have hidden my identity until the very end..."
"Ah....."
"What was it I wanted? Did I want someone to look at our family, branded as traitors by the empire, and comfort me by saying, 'That must have been so unfair. You held out well'?"
She stood there with an expression as if she might burst into tears at any moment.
"Phew..."
It was a truly tragic story.
But I didn't want to become immersed in it.
Growing attached to someone you met in a Tower's Trial was an incredibly foolish and stupid thing to do.
"Rebecca."
"Uh... yes?"
"Do you want revenge?"
"That's right. I... I want revenge for my family. I want to burn every last one of those damned imperial bastards who ruined my life to death!!!"
Yes. This was it.
Eyes burning as if they would set everything ablaze.
A life consumed by revenge.
As expected, the Tower was fair. In exchange for a damnably difficult trial, hadn't it placed the talent I wanted most right in front of me?
Fire in particular would be incredibly useful.
"Right, let's go, Rebecca. Come with me!"
I reached out to her, and she clasped my hand with trembling fingers.
***
- Fwoooosh!!!
The dark night.
Flames erupted from somewhere, illuminating the detention center. A huge pillar of fire rising from the first floor burned the ceiling and spread black smoke in every direction.
- Eeeeeeeen~~!!!
The fire alarm blared noisily, and prisoners who had hurriedly woken up grabbed the bars and shouted.
"P-please save us!!! Fire! Open this up!!"
"Open this, please!!!"
"You crazy guards!! People are going to die!!"
The bars of each room could not be unlocked from inside. Unless the control room unlocked them or a guard opened them directly with a key, the prisoners inside could not get out.
The guards rushing to the fire brought firefighting equipment and began putting it out. But the flames that had already caught continued burning everything in the detention center and began spreading even more fiercely instead of being subdued.
"Damn it, what are those central control room bastards doing?"
"Apparently all the wires connecting the detention center have been cut. If we don't want everyone to die, we'll have to open them manually."
"Could this be some kind of terrorist attack?"
"Put out the fire first!"
"No, get the prisoners out first or they'll all die!"
Rebecca and I had secretly slipped out beforehand and done the work.
To prevent them from reviewing the CCTV in case something happened, we had cut every wire connecting to the main building.
Rebecca's flames had made the work very easy.
"When do we leave?"
"Not yet. A little longer..."
The guards began opening the doors and evacuating the prisoners. But they were heading in the opposite direction.
The detention center's main gate was connected to the main building where the guards lived, while the facilities behind it included the cafeteria and various prisoner amenities.
The place we needed to reach was the main building. The rear was surrounded by walls, so breaking through there would be impossible anyway.
And soon, our opportunity came.
A second wave of firefighters and personnel to control the prisoners was sent in, and they moved to the upper floors to evacuate the prisoners.
"Now. Run!!"
We pried the bars apart with our hands, and Rebecca and I shot out like arrows.
We ran across the fire scene like madwomen.
"What are you doing, girls!! You need to go the other way!!"
"W-wait, their running speed..."
"What the hell!! Grab those bitches right now!!"
We took advantage of their distraction and ran out at full speed.
Perhaps in preparation for an emergency, two guards wearing bulletproof vests and carrying guns were standing guard at the entrance.
"Hey, you two!! If you don't stop right now, this will be considered an escape..."
I braced my legs, kicked hard off the floor, and accelerated once more.
- Thud!!
Before the guard with the gun could react, I kicked him. Then I used the recoil to spin through the air and kick the other one as well.
"Rebecca! Run faster!"
Just then, one of the nearby guards grew larger, transformed into something like a boulder, and charged toward us.
'An ability user?'
I lightly jumped over his body tackle.
When he lost control of his momentum and slammed into the wall, I doubled back and kicked him in the waist, driving him into it again.
The stone man's waist bent and snapped in half, killing him instantly.
But that wasn't the end of it.
- Bang bang!!
Several guards pulled pistols from their pockets and began firing. The others charged at me with batons, various weapons, and various supernatural-looking abilities swirling around their hands.
"Hey!! Hurry up!"
This time, Rebecca shouted from the entrance.
"That bitch... Get her!"
I ignored them and ran. Bullets rained down, but I narrowly dodged them at full speed and escaped through the detention center's main gate.
As soon as I got out, Rebecca blocked the entrance with her flames.
This was the only way out of the detention center. The other sides were thickly encased in reinforced concrete, making escape impossible even for me.
'There's no need to fight them.'
In particular, ability users and modern firearms were the enemies awakened people were most wary of. There were simply too many variables.
But with both of them present, was there any reason to fight?
"Run, most of them should be trapped in there!"
We left the detention center and ran straight down the corridor of the main building.
Then I locked eyes with a female healer who was hastily dressed and coming out of her room.
"Kyaaah! You two!! What are you..."
- Thud!
I lightly struck her neck and knocked her unconscious, then reached into her chest... gave it one squeeze, and pulled out the access key.
"It came right out?"
We were lucky. I had obtained the passkey for the corridor's security barrier.
'Why is everything going exactly according to plan?'
But then, in the instant I was briefly distracted by the key,
- Wham!!
I saw Rebecca flying toward me after being struck by something.
'Huh...?'
