Chapter 15: Second Nightmare
Experiment #001 To #010 [Physical Body]
1-The subject of the experiment can heal a wound in a minute, am missing limp in an Hour, and the whole body in twelve hours.
2-The regeneration start from the largest part with flesh, bone, and blood. This pique the question, what will happen when all parts have the same weight?
3-When all parts have same weight, an error emerges. The body will try to regenerate all parts, Making the process slower by four times!
Mohg looked at the papers in his hand, he was excited. Someone finally survived his experiments!
"Now that we finished the Physical body part, we will go to the Mind now."
Experiment #011 [Mind endurance]
Ushering one of his abilities Mohg unleashed a devastating Mind attack at Raphael.
Raphael for the First time felt a new type of pain, it was like his head being hammered 1000 of times in a Second.
'It's hurts so much!! Make it stop!
"Arghhhhhhh— stop it!!"
Boom!
Raphael head blows up his brain scattered around the room.
"Hmm.. it seems the subject can endure a Sacred mind attack for 1.8 seconds, which is quite high for someone weak as him."
After Raphael fully regenerated, Mohg did the same thing again, and again, and again.
"The subject mind endurance raised from 1.8 seconds to 3 seconds. It seems that subject body is adapting to the mind attack. The adaptation is not normal either it's far exceed the normal."
Mohg continued experimenting on Raphael mind.
"Hmm.. I'm not 100% sure but it seems that the subject body doesn't just heal physically but also psychologically. This begs the question, if the subject became corrupted would he heal from it and returns normal?.. No this is too dangerous to experiment on."{1}
Experiments #011 to #030 [Mind]
1-The subject has a high Mind endurance capable to endure a Sacred mind attack for 1.8 seconds in the first time.
2-The subject has a high adaptability far exceeds normal.
3-Theoretically the subject can heal his psychological state, if my theory's about corruption is right then the subject can also be healed from corruption.
"Hahaha.. human you're truly a gift which was sent by His Majesty."
"Stop.. please stop I beg you, I can't take it anymore." Raphael said tears came from his eyes.
"But you do human you can take it. You were gifted with such an ability.. I really envy you."
"Tomorrow we will begin experimenting on your soul." Mohg said while he was leaving the room.
Experiment #031 [Soul]
Mohg did the same thing as he did to Raphael mind.
Raphael felt like he was being torn apart by five bulls, but they were doing it slowly, letting him feel the pain, with insects eating him from the inside at the same time.
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh—."
Suddenly Raphael went limp, there was no explosion or anything. He just went limp.
Inside his Soul Sea the star which was burning before broke in to pieces, making his warm, bright Soul Sea becomes cold, and filled with darkness.
"The subject endures for around 2.3 seconds."
After sometime Raphael waked up again.
"The subject Soul healing has the same time same as his physical body."
Mohg walked towards the door and opened it in front of him is a thin man draped in a tattered, hooded robe, with a pale, mask-like face that gives him a mysterious, almost ghostly appearance. His attire is simple, rough, and worn, adding to his enigmatic presence.
"Have you brought what I asked for Varre?"
"Yes my lord they are ready." Varre replied calmly.
"Good bring them in."
————————
Raphael opened his eyes, his once bright brown eyes became dull and lifeless.
"You waked up human? That's good I brought you a gift." Mohg said while he was smiling from ear to ear.
In Mohg's hand was a needle filled with a white substance that shone brightly. On the back of the room there was around 10000 like the needle.
"You see each needle has around 100 Soul Fragments inside of it.. and all 10000 needles will go inside of your Soul."
"What? I..I can't. I can only store 1000 Soul Fragments inside my Soul!" Raphael screamed.
"Oh, we will see about that Hahaha! You see I have a theory about the Soul, but I couldn't confirm my theory because my subjects soul were too weak to survive my experiments, but you are different!"
"Tell me what is your theory is!!" Raphael screamed.
"Eager aren't you, don't worry you will know it soon." Moho said his face smiling like the devil himself.
Mohg inserted the needle inside Raphael Soul Core directly, doing something never heard off.
Raphael felt stronger way stronger than before, He summoned his Soul Fragments Runes.
Soul Fragments: [114/1000].
The Second one came, then the third, fourth…,eighth, then came the ninth one.
Soul Fragments: [914/1000].
"Wait! stop.. huff.. anymore and my Soul will be destroyed. I beg you stop please."
But Mohg didn't even glanced at Raphael and inserted the tenth one.
"Arghhhhhh—."
Raphael looked inside his Soul Sea.. His Soul Core was cracking.
"The Soul core is like a ball, the more air you pump the stronger it became, but when you reach a certain line the ball blows up."
At the same time Mohg inserted the 14th one, and then Raphael Soul Core broke to pieces.
Mohg stopped talking waiting for Raphael revival.
When Raphael wake up Mohg smiled his tusks could be seen.
"The Soul is also like a muscle, when you destroy a muscle and then heal it, it will become more stronger than before. The Soul is the same thing, the only problem is you can't heal a destroyed Soul, but here you are defying the world laws."
Raphael looked down and summoned his Soul Fragments Runes.
Soul Fragments: [1014/1014].
"Hahaha.. Ah, Why was I cursed with such power.."
The experiments contunied be it his Soul, Mind, or Body.. it was all experimented on.
————————
Raphael had once screamed, gradually, he lost his voice.
He had once cried, gradually, He lost his tears.
He had once grieved, gradually, He became able to withstand everything.
All he has left is an expressionless face, his gaze is as tough as a monolith, only perseverance remains in his heart.
Raphael summoned his Soul Fragments again..
Soul Fragments: [22314/22314].
—————————
In another place eight creatures sat in a circle, The seven looked at Mohg the one who called them to this meeting.
Mohg looked at the Seven before him they were none other than the Seven Dukes of the Underworld.
"I have summoned you here to make a decision."
Mohg looked at his subordinate Varre and nodded his head.
Varre understood his lord and started giving files to the dukes.
After reading the file the dukes looked at Mohg, one of the seven dukes spoke.
"Is everything real?"
"Yes, none is fabricated."
"But how is that possible?" One of the dukes asked.
"It doesn't matter how, what does matter is that he can survive."
"So I want to make a vote decision, If Subject 876 will be given our Majesty lineage. And become the Emperor of the Underworld. As you know the corruption is infiltrating the Underworld, we need a new ruler.. So, chose if he will be our next ruler."
Five hands were up and three were down. Mohg smiled.
"Then it's decided. I shall start the preparations."
—————————
Raphael looked at Mohg, for the first time he didn't see him holding a paper or a needle. This time he was holding a cup made of with black diamonds.
Inside the cup is golden liquid, the liquid looked divine something mortal shouldn't dare touch.
Experiment #1000 [Ichor]
Mohg walked towards Raphael and opened Raphael mouth and made him drink it.
First there was nothing, then his body started melting his head, chest, everything starting melting.
Raphael even when his brain melt he was still consciousness, he felt pain like never before, but it was tolerable.
After full four days of regenerating and melting, Raphael fully regenerated.
He felt some changes in his body.
In Mohg eyes he saw what people will call divine. He stood tall and powerful, his broad shoulders and well-defined muscles giving him an imposing presence. His smooth skin stretched over a lean, sculpted body, each muscle clearly defined. His long, black hair flowed past his shoulders, framing a strong, angular face with sharp features—a chiseled jawline and high cheekbones. But it was his eyes that stood out the most. Dark and intense, they seemed to pierce through everything.
Mohg took a clothes and put it on Raphael, he then left Raphael body and went outside of the room.
Mohg walked through the halls until he reached an open area. It was so large it can fit millions of people.
The place was decorated with pillars that reached the sky, Mohg continued walking until he reached the end.
In the end there was a Throne, made from finest Materials that existed in the world.
Mohg walked the stairs until he reached the Throne and put Raphael above it. He then backed down and knelt on his knees.
Suddenly chains came from the back of the Throne holding Raphael.
And then, everything became dark, and in the dark Raphael heard a voice.
[Your nightmare is over.]
——————————
In another place an armoured woman could been seen, she layer her back at the wall waiting for that thing to come, to kill her.
"I'm sorry Raph.. I don't think we will meet again.."
Nephis looked at the Runes in front of her.
"Sunny.. it seems you get your freedom back."
Suddenly everything went dark she couldn't see anything.
And in that darkness she heard some thing.
[Your nightmare is over.]
——————————
{1} This the reason that Raphael is still sane, without it he would have gone insane from the beginning
——————————
Three chapters in a day..Ain't I the best?!
The Second Nightmare is over, I knew it was fast but what could I say. There wasn't really anything to do, other than Raphael being tortured😂.
See you next time.
