The Prince Charming System
(Season 2) Red Devil (2)

[Other acquisitions]

Slowly her eyelids opened revealing the blue sliced netra of the ocean, as her eyes blinked adjusting to the ambient light.

A faint rustling sound rang out around her, Chloe looked up trying to figure out her condition. Both hands were tied back with a rope and it appeared that the rope was tied so tight that Chloe had trouble moving both hands.

The minimal light in the room makes Chloe have to be extra vigilant in case the Red Devil members around her.

"What is this place? The temperature is quite humid and the lighting is minimal. Is it the basement?" Thought Chloe was looking around her which contained some sharp weapons and firearms. Some boxes of whatever was there.

"Ugh..."

Hearing the moaning beside her made Chloe reflex turn her head and find Ezra who had just regained consciousness from her stupor. The young man looked dazed trying to adjust his vision to the surrounding conditions.

"Sir Ezra," Chloe whispered softly so that only Ezra could hear her voice.

"Huh! Is that you Tengil?"

"Yes,"

"Why is the lighting so minimal?" Ezra tried to move both hands before he realized that both hands were tied. "Damn! They think we're prisoners?!"

"We are indeed prisoners sir, our legs are also in chains," Chloe glanced at her two legs which were chained so strongly that they left bruises on her ankles.

"Shut up! I'm not talking to you!" Ezra was upset, still trying to untie his hand. No matter which wrist he started bruising from the scratch of the rope.

Chloe just exhaled tiredly, Blue Netra glanced at the various weapons that were there unfortunately the weapons were placed so far from their position that Chloe could not take the weapons. There were no windows other than closed and soundproofed rooms.

"This place is so bad and it's not worth calling a prisoner, where there's a fishy scent here anymore" Chloe turned her head, She didn't feel her watch on her wrist. "They took my watch? My phone doesn't exist either. Though it was his only communication with Aiden and the other members,"

"Hey, Tengil. Hurry up and get that gun over there!" Ezra's Brief.

"Sir, the weapon is far away. I can't go there,"

KKRREEY!

The two gasped at the sound of footsteps approaching them. The figure of the man appeared with a mask that covered half his face. In front of Ezra and Chloe, he bowed a little.

"You two come with me!" He said in a cold tone, intending to let go of the chains that tied Ezra and Chloe's legs.

"You're really fucking shit!" Ezra lunged at the body of the figure with his body, yet the figure dodged quickly away a few meters from its place.

"You took my phone and my watch, give it back!" Snarl Ezra angry.

"Is that important now? My master wants to meet you, You should just shut up and follow me, "The figure is still calm.

Chloe stood up and turned to Ezra. He tried to calm down Ezra who was still angry. "Sir, just follow him first,"

"Huh! I won't!"

"It would be hard to persuade such a stubborn man as Mr. Ezra," thought Chloe again exhaling her breath.

Taps! Taps! Taps!

Cklek!

The sound of footsteps was heard again with the opening of the door in front of them. Another man walked up to them.

"Why so long? He was already waiting, "Hearing the man's voice, the masked figure turned his head then looked at Ezra and Chloe.

"They don't want to get out of here,"

"Oh, Really? Do you want to die rotting here?" The figure turned until Ezra and Chloe could see his face clearly.

For a moment Ezra was silent petrified not believing that the figure in front of him was his own best friend. Was he betrayed by Justin? Even Ezra didn't want to believe that.

"Sir Justin?" Chloe was surprised now that she really did not understand the situation around her.

"Justin...Why are you doing this?" Ezra stared sadly, Some in him were disappointed and some were angry at being betrayed.

Victor shook his head slowly, Pretending to be pitying Ezra. He aligned himself with the tall, green-covered young man and then placed his palm on Ezra's cheek.

"Oh, poor Ezra. You're sad when you find out Justin betrayed you?" A second later he smiled obliquely with his red neutrals slightly glowing between the darkness. "But I'm not him!"

Ezra flinched immediately distancing his body from Victor, his gaze turning furious. "Once again you take over the body! Return Justin!"

"No want~, this Raga is mine. I don't want to share with anyone anymore" Victor chuckled softly.

While Chloe who does not know anything about this problem just quietly gawking, herself listened to the conversation but also felt strange with Justin's attitude that looks different than usual.

His gaze shifted when his blue net accidentally caught the movement of the masked figure.

"What does he want to do?" Chloe looked at the masked figure warily.

The figure took off his mask revealing a face so familiar to Chloe and Ezra. Even Ezra held back his anger a second time.

"Devians! So you've been the culprit all along!" Said Ezra full of emphasis, He wants to go berserk now but the bond in his hand held back his intention.

The Devian-like figure was simply silent expressionlessly, Only his net glanced at the corner of the room speechlessly. Victor spoke Ezra's words while chuckling.

"What do you mean by 'Devian'? He's not Devian, Devian's there with his family. He looks happy with them is heartwarming, isn't he?"

Victor pointed at the corner of the room with his index finger, Smiling full of psychopathic aura. Ezra and Chloe look at Victor's index finger, and they faintly see some human head-shaped displays.

And one of those heads had a Devian's head on display there still covered in bloodstains. Even a few drops of blood still dripped from there. Instantly Ezra and Chloe stared at the horror, It feels like Chloe wants to be nauseous right now even Ezra's face to pale as pale as white paper.

"He's dead," Victor pressed down on all his words, The hideous grin did not fade from his lips.

"Devian's dead?! Inhere? In this place? It's worth it here I smell a fishy scent," Chloe was stunned for a moment still staring at the head's display, her body trembling slightly.

"Then if Devian dies..." Chloe turned her gaze to the Devian-like figure before them. "He who?"

The figure was still silent did not budge before long his artificial face disappeared into small grains of sand replaced with the original face of the figure.

"I deliberately used the mock face of your friend to infiltrate your Dormitory, Your level of vigilance is really lacking. Gullible," The figure stared in the other direction while scaling.

Ezra screeched cynically. "So that was all your plan?! I really can't forgive you!"

"A human like you knows what?" He looked down on Ezra, A condescending gaze aimed at the green-toothed young man. "You won't know anything about me, using the memories of a real human. It's really easy for me to figure out which targets I should kill,"

"By using real human memory? Maybe he's half a mutant like Aiden. From what I have caught from his words. He used the memories of the original Devians, so the names of the members would be recorded because he used Devian's memories,"

Chloe looked at the figure for longer trying to analyze the strength of the figure, Unfortunately the figure looked back at her knowing that Chloe was watching her from earlier.

The figure walked up to Chloe, Realizing that Ezra was standing right in front of the girl blocking the figure from going any further. While Victor chose to watch the free show without intervening while sitting.

"You want what you?!" Ezra's fizzle was sharp, his gaze so piercing.

He did not answer his outstretched hand showing a strand of white lily formed from his palm.

Afterwards he throws the flower towards the display where the pieces of Devian's head and the Devian family are located. Seeing the impoliteness of the figure made Chloe upset.

"Hey! You're not polite! They're dead, you're still acting like it!" Chloe protest won't take.

The figure ignored Chloe's protest, he just stared at the head display.

"I've often seen people do this when people die, they say flowers are the last symbol of respect for the dead. So I respected them by giving them flowers like that, "The figure looked at Ezra and Chloe expressionlessly. "So what did I do wrong?"

Instantly the two immediately speechles heard the innocence of the figure before them.

"It's not wrong, either, but the way she's being told isn't polite" Chloe thought.

"That kills him, that gives him flowers. I wonder how he could be of one species with Aiden. Cuneiform!" Ezra thought he was almost upset.

"Liam! Quickly take them! Don't waste time!" Excited Victor who had been bored waiting for the spectacle to be finished.

The figure named 'Liam' just nodded, Some chains sprung up from behind his back. Ezra and Chloe are not ready to be caught by the chains.

"Aarrr! I shouldn't have talked to you!" Ezra cried out in rebellion from the chains that bound him.

"God! You guys are slow to think of escaping from here. Liam is just stalling for a moment by asking you to talk" Victor said casually.

He and Liam walk out of the room through a dark hallway lit only by a few torches, carrying Ezra and Chloe bound in Liam's chains.

*************

BRUK!

The two of them were dropped in a super spacious room, Some Red Devil members were standing around them with gloomy and gripping auras. Chloe could feel that, she looked up at one of the Red Devils sitting on a throne with two red devils standing on her left right side. He estimated that the Red Devil who sat on the throne was the leader of this Red Devil group.

But that is not what attracts Chloe's attention but the figure of Ian his unconscious childhood best friend beside the throne of the chairman of the Red Devil, who is, The man's body was visibly slashed with numerous cuts all over his body as well as chained hands and feet.

Chloe stared at the pain with Ian's condition which she thought was so apprehensive. Realizing that Chloe continued to stare at the figure beside her, the Red Devil Chief looked at Chloe's gaze.

"You want me to let go?" Ask the chairman of the Red Devil to the point.

"If you can let us all go" said Chloe, trying to calm her trembling self.

"Ho'oh, what a cliche request. Okay, I'll fill it up," the Red Devil Chief nodded his head.

"Is that easy? There's no way he'll let us go that easily. There must be other goals," thought Ezra staring intently at the head of the Red Devil.

"But before that, I want to reminisce with you first Chloe,"

The girl's eyebrows shriveled in wonder. "How do you know my name?"

The Red Devil chief did not reply he just stood up from his throne then stepped closer to Chloe, his red robe waving slowly following her movements. Arriving in front of the girl he then bent his body a little.

"You don't remember me? Ah, it's sad that my high school friend doesn't remember me at all,"

"sma Friends? As I recall my only friends were Alice and Evelyn in High School," Chloe looked at the mane of the Red Devil's silver chief in front of her, Only that mane caught her attention as it glittered in the light of the lamp.

"So you really don't remember me huh," the Red Devil leader's tone turned cold after not getting an answer from Chloe.

Her hands moved to reach for the mask she wore, revealing a beautiful look like a Greek goddess. The lustrous silver mane in the light of the lamp is very compatible with the ruby-colored netra.

Chloe silently stared at the Red Devil leader's netra before her, Unknowingly saying the name of the girl in front of her. "Vivian?! Chairman of the OSIS Guard High School?!"

Vivian closed her eyes for a moment screeched cynically. "Curtain! Don't call me the head of the OSIS again!"

THE PLAQUE!

A slap floated up Chloe's cheek, Chloe just silently feeling her cheeks throbbing pain. Ezra who saw that was shocked, he looked at Vivian growled.

"What are you doing?! Fucking shit! Is this the attitude you have to show in front of your high school friend?!"

MAAM!

Vivian did not reply without hesitation she hit Ezra's cheek tightly until it bruised and made Ezra fall with the corner of her bloody lips.

"Shut up! My business is only with this boy! You're the only outsider don't interfere!" Vivian snapped furiously, she looked back at Chloe and clutched the blue-blossomed girl's chin, forcing her to look her in the eye.

"Do you remember what your brother did, Felix Edricson! Because of you and him. I got kicked out of school, my mom's job was taken off and my dad's company went out of business. We fell into poverty, and now my mom's depressed and my dad's a drunk!" Vivian clenched her one hand.

"We fell into misery, and it's all because of you and your brother!" The girl took Chloe's chin off violently.

"After what happened to you yourself, you blame someone else. Isn't being the Chairman of OSIS to exemplify good things in his friends? But you're oppressing them instead" Chloe obviously remained calm.

"I don't even care about them, I only care about my own pleasure," Vivian stared cynically, Then distanced herself.

"Jaa, our business is done,"

"Then what do you want to do with them?" Victor looked at Vivian who was heading back to his throne.

"Whatever you are, Hm...Maybe you can beat up the guy next to her as much as you can and do as you like the girl," Vivian delighted in pointing at Ezra and Chloe.

"Ah, If I leave this matter to our members only," Victor stepped away from there, placing himself in a wooden box followed by Liam.

Some of the Red Devil members chuckled, They approached Chloe and Ezra. One of them pulled the collar of the girl's clothes while cheering from behind her mask.

"The body is very clean, we can make it a toy" said one member of the Red Devil. Hearing that Chloe rebelled.

"No! Release!"

Ezra stared intently at how much he hated Chloe, not that he could let the girl be touched by others, let alone to be played with by them. As a partner he also has a responsibility to help his partner.

"Stop!"

BUGH!
