Words : 1705 Updated : Sep 21st, 2025

After the appearance of the Roser Tower mages, knights and soldiers, the situation in the entire city began calming down rabidly and making the number of the rampaging monster get cut down very quickly while also getting rid of the plague that had infected the city. The culprit who was behind this entire incident have been identified as the terrorist known as "Doctor" who was know for committing already multiple act of terrorism in two different kingdoms, resulting in both kingdoms suffering an heavy casualties while also causing an massive damage to many settlements. Unfortunately, the Doctor did managed to get away from the pursuing forces, but later on an bounty after his head would be issued, alarming the people of the kingdom. But before the official bounty would get officially posted, the members Piafw including Shadow Mask and Doctor had managed to escape and regroup in the smaller town called Ako that was nearby where the group would meet up in the inn. "Well… The situation was shitty." – said Shadow Mask without his mask, but had an hood covering his face. "…Is it fine to talk… You know…." – said Phantasia as he hinted at something. "Don't worry. This thing is called "Private room". Its an magic tool that makes specific targeted room being harder to ear drop on, so we can even scream and nobody will bother us." – said Shadow Mask as he held onto diamond like artifact with wires attached on its surface. "So, this entire room is safe…... But still, our current situation is shitty." "We went inside the tower, but the security there was way too big and if we broke anything, we could possible alert the Rose Tower." "The level of the security there was abnormal…. But I wasn't expecting for them deploy a lot of the mages in the tower to deal with you, we miscalculated." "Still, it did gave us an short time to look even slightly around…. And we confirmed something. These bastards were all about holy magic and angels." "Its not like they were researching it either. More like they already knew it and were trying to make something." "But we couldn't find out what, so we needed to run away." "Those bastards moved abnormally fast." "Same on my side." – said Phantasia. "They send soldiers at me way too fast, as if they had soldiers prepared nearby. At first, I thought it was coincidence, but then more came at me and that made me found the situation suspicious." "…Were they ready for us then?" – said Shadow Mask. "I don't think so." – replied Phantasia. "If they knew we were coming, then wouldn't they make ambush for you guys in the tower?" "…True." – said Shadow Mask. "Stil, the situation got much more annoying." "We now know they are not researching, but instead they are trying to improve or make something, but why and why spend so many resources on the heaven related items?" "And besides that, we didn't found anything else…. We don't have an direct proof they are linked to the heavens or anything like that…. So that is an problem." "…..." "Actual…. I found something on my end." – said Phantasia. "?" "I honestly don't want to say it, since it does reveal some of my secrets, but I will just say it, since it will explain a lot of stuff." – said Phantasia. "My chimeras are made using special ability and for me to use it, I need to use an skill to harvest an corpse that I can later use for the chimera creation." "When I harvest corpse, I get an data regarding their whole build, race and other stuff." "When the rose soldiers came after me, I killed them and harvested their corpse since I wanted to turn them into chimeras…. But then I found out that those things weren't human." "?" "Did you said "Things"?" – asked Shadow Mask. "Yea." – replied Phantasia. "Homunculus." "Those rose knights weren't human." "?!" "What did you just said?!" – shouted Shadow Mask as he suddenly grabbed Phantasia. "Y-yea. Calm down!" – said Phantasia as he pushed back Shadow Mask. "S-sorry." – said Shadow Mask. "…." – Phantasia looked around and noticed the concern look of the organization members. "Hey… What is going on?" – asked Phantasia. "…." "Its… Bit complicated." – said Shadow Mask as he sat down on the bed. "Homunculus as rumors and legends says are an man made creatures that have been created using an alchemy." "Sometimes they came in the form of the beasts, while sometimes they came in form of an human like." "However, creating an homunculus isn't an easy feet and I'm not talking about getting materials that build the human body. It's quite complicated and forgotten…. Or more like destroyed." "Ages ago, homunculus were know AND were present in the past, but anything related to them, their research and method of creation was destroyed by heaven and hell." "It said they angered them, with the whole "Playing the god", but that is an blunt lie." "It was greed." "Both heaven and hell wanted the knowledge of the homunculus for themselves and that greed resulted in the total destruction." "Anything like research, data or anything else related to homunculus creation have been either stolen or destroyed by the heaven and hell." "This entire incident took place before this world gods banished the heaven and hell." "…. And now that we are dealing with the homunculus means one thing… The heaven is really involved in this matter." "Since only heaven or hell has necessary knowledge to make one?" – said Phantasia. "Yea. Exactly." – replied Shadow Mask. "There could be many reasons why they didn't used homunculus before…. Or maybe there were case and they were already using them for long in secret… There could be also an possibility that the data and method of crafting have been damage because of the people resistance and could have been somewhat wrecked because of the war with hell." "But either way, this confirms that 100% the heaven is really behind Rose Tower." "…." "So does that mean we can officially target them?" – asked Phantasia. "Yea, with this we can target them." – replied Shadow Mask. "…." "Wait a moment." – said Phantasia as he opened up his inventory and took out something like organ with an gem fused together. "?" "What is that?" – asked Shadow Mask. "Homunculus core." – said Phantasia. "?!" "Wait, what?!" – shouted Shadow Mask. [Homunculus Core - Dead] [Rank: Unknown] [An core and main organ of the homunculus that is necessary for the homunculus to live. However, in its current state it had died and has lost any of its original usefulness.] "I didn't harvested all of the corpse using my skill and tried getting one from the soldiers… It was bit risky, but I got it." "However, the core itself is pretty much busted and destroyed." "But, maybe you can do something with it." – said Phantasia as he handed over the weird organ to the Shadow Mask. "…Shit." – said Shadow Mask. (Well, it's not like I gotten single core, so its not big lose giving him that.) – though Phantasia. (Still, the core had an low drop rate and even its current state is maybe that of an trash…. Can it be even used?) "Anyway, all of the soldiers that attacked me were not humans." – said Phantasia. "Only the guards I killed at the start near the gate and turned into undeads were humans, but besides that, everything else came at me were homunculus's." "And that is the worrying part." "These homunculus's were weak even for their level, but they were able to use some basic magic." "Not only that, they were allowed to deploy them against me?" Sёarch* The NôᴠelFirё.net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. "It's way too suspicious." "As if they didn't had to worry about." "…." "They have factory or some means of mass producing the homunculus's. Is that what you are saying?" – asked Shadow Mask. "If we think about it logically, then yes." – said Phantasia. "If they knew about my ability to harvest and inspect corpse, then I would have never would find out that they are homunculus." "I could by an chance obtain the core by killing the soldiers, but then again, it would be confusing why would soldier would be carrying it." "Maybe it was ordered to dispose of it or something." "Either way, we now know that the Rose Tower is working for the heaven and they are also making homunculus, but for what reason?" "…." "Hm….. There is also the whole incident regarding the dark elf I told you before, the one that gave us lead about Rose Tower." – said Phantasia. "Oh…. What about the people of the tower? You said that the soldiers that went after you were able to use magic, so what about the mages of the tower? What if they were not real people?" – said one of the members of the organization that was inside the room. Read exclusive chapters at My Virtual Library Empire "Wait, that would make sense, wouldn't it? I mean, according to his story the people started acting suspicious, but there would be definitely some people that would have resisted, right?" – said another member. "Can they create some copies of the people that would look like somebody?" "We don't know…. But there is an chance this is true." – said Shadow Mask. "Either way, this have turned into an huge issue." "We will need to urgently report this to the higher ups and asked them to send more people." "What about me? Am I needed right now?" – asked Phantasia. "No. You are not, but maybe soon your monster maybe needed in future." – said Shadow Mask. "So, recover and start slowly preparing." "Since depending on what higher ups decide, that organization…. No. This entire kingdom may end up being the target of the "Purge"."
