In the dungeon,

Ni wakes abruptly gasping for air struggling against the bonds binding him spread-eagled on the ground.

The creaking sounds of the door alerted him to the fact that he wasn't the only one in the dimly lit cell. He turns his head looking left then right trying to locate whoever entered the dungeon.

There she stands tall towering over everyone present wearing her usual attire in a revealing black dress.

She carries two bowls containing steaming hot soup. Place one bowl beside each prisoner and then leave, closing the door quietly.

Both men stare blankly at their food unsure of if it was the best plan to go with.

lightsnοvεl 'I can't eat this,' Ni thinks sadly, eyeing the contents of the bowl. 'There might have been something in it.'

He glances sideways, noticing both Ryo and Kaito eating happily oblivious to the situation surrounding them.

'They're probably too hungry to notice anyway.' He thinks to himself and shakes his head.

Rising unsteadily to his knees, he takes small sips of water hoping to wash away any lingering traces of hunger. Afterward, he places the empty cup aside carefully avoiding spilling it.

Kicking his legs weakly, he attempts to push himself upright using his bound wrists. It didn't take long until he managed to sit cross-legged leaning heavily on his elbows and resting his chin atop his palms.

Taking slow deep breaths, he closes his eyes focusing solely on breathing deeply inhaling through his nose exhale from his mouth. Doing this repeatedly helps calm his nerves allowing him to relax more easily.

"Are you going to eat that, though? You know we don't want anyone dying because of some stupid mistake like last time, right?" A familiar feminine voice asks, sounding concerned.

Squinting his eyes, he sees Mina standing next to him watching him intently waiting patiently for his response. She appears worried about whether or not he will consume the meal placed before him.

The females had been let free, unlike their male counterparts. This is because none of them could interact with the females or risk a punishment far worse than what they had witnessed a few weeks ago.

Mina has always seemed different compared to other ladies; however, no one knows why exactly. Her appearance doesn't seem unusual nor does anything else stand out aside from her beauty.

Her hair color varies depending on which way the light hits it ranging between blonde, brown, red, purple, blue, green, yellow, orange, pink, white, silver, gold, etcetera. However, most people tend to describe her as having an exotic aura making others feel comfortable being near her.

This makes sense considering how friendly she acts toward those who are kind to her regardless of gender. Even when dealing with males, she treats them equally well, even the worst ones kindly showing compassion instead of hostility.

"You shouldn't be talking to me," Ni says, his tone coming out harsh causing Mina to flinch slightly.

His face remains expressionless staring straight ahead ignoring her presence completely.

A moment later, he hears soft footfalls walking toward him stopping just short of touching his shoulder.

Looking down, he notices Mina placing a hand on his cheek stroking softly along its length. His heart skips a beat startled by such sudden contact.

It feels nice so he allows her touch, continuing gazing into her beautiful emerald-colored eyes.

Snapping out of it, he quickly turns around, glaring at her. "Don't ever try doing that again!"

There was no way he was going to condone such an act especially after witnessing the consequences firsthand. The thought alone made him shudder to remember all the pain inflicted on the others during that night.

However, despite his anger, he couldn't help but admire her gentle demeanor. There were many things he wanted to say regarding her actions yet nothing would come forth leaving him speechless, unable to form coherent thoughts.

"Oh... okay..." Mina says nervously, backing off slowly, turning back, and heading back to sit with the rest of the females who sat in a trance with their eyes wide open, still in shock from what they had been put through earlier.

'I'm sorry but it's best to do it this way.' Ni thinks feeling guilty knowing full well there isn't much he can do now.

A few moments later, he hears voices coming closer making him stare at the door as it slowly unlocks.

The females all rush towards the corner of the room where they huddle together whispering amongst themselves while keeping a watchful eye on everything happening inside the dungeon.

Ni watches silently observing the scene unfolding without saying a word.

After several minutes pass, the doors unlock once more, opening up and letting three figures enter carrying large wooden boxes filled with various items.

They were three figures dressed similarly to the woman earlier except these wore dark blue robes covering their entire bodies including their faces. Their hands were held behind them while keeping close eye contact with the prisoners inside.

Familiar red glowing eyes stared directly at each prisoner giving them goosebumps running across their skin sending shivers throughout every inch of their body.

One female broke away from the group approaching the man wearing black leather armor and holding two swords strapped over his shoulders.

Ni watches as he sees her blue eyes glow as though being controlled by something unseen within her mind. He knew right then and there that whatever happened here wasn't normal.

She approaches the male kneeling beside the bed looking down curiously examining the crotch area and seeing the bulge forming beneath the cloth hiding underneath.

He felt uncomfortable watching the situation unfold wondering if any harm might happen to the lady. Yet, he remained silent hoping against hope that wouldn't occur.

As soon as her hands graze over his groin, he groans in pleasure, moaning loudly, holding her hair and pulling down his pants.

Everyone looks shocked hearing the sound echoing through the dungeon, followed shortly thereafter by another moan escaping his lips.

All heads turn towards the source noticing the same thing occurring among the remaining ladies too. Ni watched as the men began reacting sexually, responding to the strange sensation caused by the unknown force controlling their minds.

The hooded lady pulls down the front revealing her naked chest covered only by thin fabric barely enough to cover her nipples.

It was at that moment Ni could rightly tell who it was.
