Chapter 95: Karma Is A Bitch (3)
Just as the old man had informed him, the ’festival’ was a spectacle of depravity, with the tribals unloading their twisted desires onto the slaves.
But it wasn’t just the tribals; Adrian was surprised to see some familiar faces among the participants. Some of the Nexarians were eagerly indulging in disturbing rituals.
Seeing them act like that made Adrian want to puke. He couldn’t believe these were the people he had worked alongside for years. But he ignored all that and began gathering some much-needed information.
Just then, Adrian raised an eyebrow when he saw several Tulkas, the supposed guards, hurriedly abandoning their post and running towards the barn he had come from.
’It looks like even the guards don’t stick to their duty during these nights,’ Adrian thought. ’No wonder the old man wanted to make a break for it.’
Adrian thought it would be difficult for him to roam around, but surprisingly, there was little to no security. Everyone was too busy giving in to their hedonistic nature.
Adrian quickly took note of the defences spread around the main settlement before deciding to go somewhere else.
Thankfully, the beast enclosures were locked, so Ardrian didn’t have to fret about stumbling upon any critters that might sniff him out.
But given what he had seen, he wondered if the enclosures had been locked for the safety of the people or to keep the animals safe from the twisted thoughts of the tribespeople.
"...I won’t be surprised if it’s the latter."
Just then, a notification appeared before him for a mission. A mission from an entity Adrian had never heard from before.
