Under The Veil of Night

Chapter 643 Becoming Lab Ra

Whatever they planned to do to her, she knew that it was anything but good.

Kanae struggled to break free once more. She didn’t want to be part of their experiment no matter what the cost. After seeing the result of their failed one in the fight before, she didn’t want to have anything to do with them at all.

However, the rope that tied her up didn’t budge at all.

"She’s pretty fierce," Professor Taren commented.

"Do you still have the medicine?"

Professor Taren nodded. "The government has plenty of the purer and raw one. I have already used most of them, but it’s enough to give her."

From the pure and raw medicine, he had tried to make the variety as people with lower potential couldn’t digest them. They were the base for every medicine that he created to deal with these awakened people. They were so powerful that it just took them one second for ordinary people to die upon getting into contact with them. With such a result, there was no way he wanted to waste them.

He had made plenty of variation with only a handful of them successful. The result of the successful one was those who stayed close with Ferdinand.

Looking at the refrigerator, he frowned when he noticed that only two bottles were left. This medicine was found during the era when this city was founded. Even he was not sure how they came to existence, but he knew their worth far more than anyone.

It would grant them the power beyond what they could imagine.

"Professor, is it alright to leave her be like this?"

"She won’t be able to break the rope. It’s specially tailored for awakened people and able to handle even Ayres."

Kanae’s mind churned when she heard that name. She knew very well that Ayres has power that was higher than ordinary people. It was to the point that one could call him monster. If even that man couldn’t break free from this rope, she knew that her attempt would be useless.

From the bottom of her heart, she hoped that she still had her small sword with her.

Picking one of them, he handed it to Aria. "Feed it to her, she’s too fierce for me to handle."

"Yes," Aria replied stoically and moved to Kanae.

"Also, make sure that you don’t touch it at all."

"Yes."

Seeing the bottle, Kanae struggled hard to break free, but Aria clenched her jaw. He did it so hard that she could feel pain all over her face.

Forcing her jaw to open, Aria tilted the bottle and poured out the liquid to Kanae’s mouth. Her eyes opened when she sensed the burning sensation from the liquid. Her body squirmed, but Aria forced her mouth to close and tilted it upwards so that the liquid went down her throat.

He patiently waited until Kanae had gulped down the medicine before he released her.

*cough* *cough*

Kanae choked violently, trying to force the liquid out of her throat. However, no matter what she did, it won’t come out.

Her heart grew cold as she felt pain permeated from her stomach to every part of her body. Gritting her teeth, she didn’t let out any voice come out of her mouth. She would never show her weak side!

Professor Taren watched her struggle with interest. "It’s indeed different between people who awaken their power by themselves and those who have to rely on medicine. She’s far more interesting than them."

Aria didn’t bother to comment as he watched from the side. His eyes didn’t show any trace of emotion even when he saw the girl struggle to not show her pain. For him, this view was extremely common because Professor Taren had done his experiment to numerous people in the past. When they were hard to control, he was the one who stepped forward to help out.

As the result, he knew that they would struggle but unable to break the binding at all.

At the end, they would surely follow after Professor Taren’s words and did everything this old man told them to do. His creation was able to accomplish all of them.

Professor Taren watched with his eyes glued to the writhing Kanae. Rather than sympathy, his eyes showed deep interest. For him, it didn’t matter whether she was someone he knew or not. All that he wanted to know was the result of the medicine.

He had seen worse than this over and over in his life. Many of them died right away when they came into contact with the medicine. It was strange that certain people survived, but many died.

From his young age, he has taken interest in those people, especially when they were fighting back to resist the medicine.

"The struggles of these rats are very beautiful," Professor Taren sighed.

It was at this time that Vena walked into the room. She was holding a stack of document as her cold eyes watched over the process indifferently. Over the past few months she has been here, she had seen this countless times. Professor Taren would surely do a lot of experiments by capturing some students who studied in Lima School.

"Professor Taren, this is the report for the last one."

"Let me take a look."

Professor Taren looked at the report with a frown on his forehead. The result was not as good as he expected. He looked back to the young girl. "Vena, have you prepared the room?"

"It’ll be ready in a few minutes, Prof," Vena replied in an indifferent tone.

Professor Taren nodded his head lightly. His eyes were glued to Kanae as he watched her face calm down. Internally, he had to praise this young lady to conceal her pained expression very well.

"Kirei Servo, I really wonder what is your past that makes you able to hold on for so long," Professor Taren smiled deeply. He looked at the young girl maniacally. "In mere hours, you’re going to be my greatest experiment. I can’t wait to see the result."

Kanae stayed silent. It took her every cell in her body to withstand the permeating pain that crept out to every corner of her body. It was so painful that she didn’t have the thought of focusing on other matters. Right now, she could only hope that she would not be broken because of the tremendous pain.
