Versatile: Alternate World

213 Nagoya Trip of Madness (X)

Chimera Hybrids are known for being an elite monster that needed to be killed multiple times due to how it has multiple hearts. Despite being an elite monster, it was treated by most players as a mini-boss due to how you need to kill it multiple times just for it to die and how it changes attack pattern every time you killed it. I haven't seen the monster in this timeline yet as I have yet to explore Sandurk a lot more but seeing the Chimera Hybrid in the real world seems different.

Once my Versatile Weapon is materialized, I carefully assess my situation. If this is a real Chimera Hybrid or not, I need to make sure that a battle will be as silent as possible. I am still praying it is not a real Chimera Hybrid and just looks like one since it is dark and the darkness is playing tricks on my eyes.

However, the more I stare at the two creatures sleeping, the more I find them looking like a real Chimera Hybrid. I gritted my teeth seeing them both. I am afraid that they have done something similar to the lore and origins of a Chimera Hybrid in the Alternate World. In the game, they are created from abducted humans and were created to fuse on other monsters, creatures, and even other humans, creating an abomination like the Chimera Hybrid.

I am scared of what I am imagining. Since the Katakura family is being connected to the various disappearances of some people in the area. If that is the case, isn't this just not a coincidence?

Pointing my Versatile Weapon into the two beings sleeping, the black shadow that devours the weapons every time I said "DEVOUR" command to the Versatile Weapon appeared. I am not surprised that the black shadow still appears since it is the main ability of the weapon but seeing it react on the two creature only mean one thing.

The two creatures are looking like a portion of delicious food to the Versatile Weapon. It is already proven that the Versatile Weapon can devour other things besides weapons since last time, I caused the Versatile Weapon to devour an arm that was severed and was still attached to the weapon. But this is the first time I have seen it appear voluntarily to a creature that is not a weapon.

"You want to devour those two?"

For some reason, the black shadow nodded like it understood what I just said. It even showed its black tongue and its black saliva dripping from its mouth. I do not want to feed the Versatile Weapon with strange things but I think I will make an exception of that for today.

"DEVOUR!"

My black shadow appeared like a dragon and opened its big mouth. The two creature that resembles the Chimera Hybrid seems to have awakened and moved out of their dog houses. However, the moment they went out, is the moment the black Shadow of my Versatile Weapon moved and swallow the two in one go. Before they can yelp, it was swallowed and disappeared to the void of the stomach of the Black Shadow of my Versatile Weapon. It sighed and puffed out its mouth before retracting itself back to the weapon and disappeared.

"Holy crap, what did this dragon just did?"

The two creatures disappeared before they can even make any sound. Will it make any sort of changes to my weapon? I don't know since I can't check the stats of the Versatile Weapon in the real world. But that has taken care of the two things that I am reluctant to approach. Now, I am free to move around.

Infiltration success. The first thing I did is check if there are any surveillance cameras around. It would be a pain if there are one and I am seen infiltrating. The enemies might be alerted and will immediately try to beat me up. I would rather avoid that.

After making sure that there are no surveillance cameras, I looked around the yard to see any of the potential enemies that might be around. Since I have scanned plenty of the security around, I needed to make sure my infiltration is successful.

There are plenty of areas that have no security but there are also parts where the security seems to be overflowing with people. After a bit of checking the nearest area to sneak into, one of the sides of the mansion is defenseless and has a window that I can sneak in. I made sure that there are no one around before I check inside the window. Seeing that the room inside is empty and there are no people or anything that can trigger my presence, I proceed to further infiltrate the mansion using the window. Thankfully, the window is a sliding-type window allowing me to get in without breaking it.

Inside the mansion, it is quite spacious and a bit dark for some unknown reason. It didn't look like a mansion meant for people who are rich. It was like it was abandoned for quite some time due to how less maintained the place is. Cobwebs and dust are accumulated in the ceilings and the floor.

The room I was in doesn't have a door and is directly connected to the hallway outside. With the ease of entering, I survey the hallways for any guards roaming around. Thankfully, it seems like the mansion's interior has no guards present. I don't detect anyone patrolling the perimeter meaning the only area with tight security is currently the one outside. The owner seems to be really confident with the security outside that there is no more security assigned inside.

But that is advantageous for me. Without the security to detect my movements, I can freely look around the place and check what is going on inside the mansion and why it is somewhat different compared to the other mansions.

There is no need for me to do sightseeing around and only did the exploration process. I need to find clues regarding the disappearance of my father as soon as possible.

As I explore the corridors of the mansion, I realized that the interior of the mansion was bigger than expected compared to when you look outside. It was like the outside of the mansion was just an illusion to the eyes and the interior is what it really looks like.

Then, I suddenly heard some screams, cries, and laughter somewhere. The cries and screams are full of pain and seem to be from a man while the laughter is coming from a woman. However, the laughter is not just a burst of normal laughter but the laughter that seems to be coming from someone who has an evil scheme or deed done successfully.

I slowly descend to the ground floor and noticed that the place is no longer looking like it isn't a mansion. This looks like a facility or an asylum. Aside from the dark atmosphere, the rooms have doors made of metal and they seemed to look similar to the asylum's doors. Most rooms are locked so I have no way of entering them. But now I am quite sure that the place is not a normal mansion.

"The Katakura family's residence is not a normal place. It seems to be hiding something nasty."

I started to explore the place when all of a sudden, all of the doors on the ground floor opened and different creatures appeared from them. All of them seemed to have come from a nightmare or looking like a monster from the games. Just from a glance, I can tell that they are not friendlies and all of them are hostiles. None of them seems to have rational minds and they are all not humans or even humanoid ones. They are all looking like monsters and they started to speak gibberish sounds.

As soon as they saw me, they started to attack like hostiles. Due to this, I materialize my weapon once again and attack the attacking creatures, making sure to kill them in the process. They were moving so fast that I have to make sure that all of my attacks are fatal and can kill the creatures in one, swift strike.

They tried to overwhelm me but due to my mastery of keeping myself away from being overwhelmed by enemies, I managed to kill most creatures. As for the rest of the other creatures, they flee the moment my killing spree killed most of the creatures in the field.

After a few minutes, I stopped swinging my Versatile Weapon and looked around me. The dead bodies of the creatures are just too much and they are all scattered all around the place.

"Just what the f*ck is going on?!"

"You want to know what is going on? You are a brave one to breach this place and kill the creatures contained in the cell. Normal people that managed to enter here are all killed before they can react. This is the first time someone else managed to survive the wave of the attacks and killed almost all of the creatures here," a woman started speaking who responded to my gripes on the situation.

I raise my guard up and look at the source of the talking woman. I didn't expect myself to take a step back to see who was speaking.

"Now, now, don't be afraid. Out of all the creatures in this place, I am one of the most sentient of them all and I don't eat humans. I am a picky eater after all."

It was not a human currently speaking, but a big black cat that is the same size as a leopard and has wings.
