MTLNOVEL Chapter 306: The Fate of Bari
Noah sat silently, watching the scene unfold with a detached gaze.
Bari succeeded in killing all of her loved ones, all while crying, laughing, and pleading with them not to hurt her. But wasn't she the one hurting them?
That's what her loved ones were crying after some time, but Bari was quite adamant about the fact that she was the one being hurt as she continued to plead them.
And indeed, in a sense, she was right.
They were not hurting her physically, but she would've wished that it was only that. Their words, the way they looked at her—those wounded her more than any injury she had ever suffered in her entire life.
They cut through her weak heart with merciless precision, making her choke with pain as she cried and begged.
Things would have ended like that, with her killing her loved ones, but…
"It's not satisfactory. Please, let's do it again. Put more of your heart in it, Bari, will you?" Noah said with a faint smile, his eyes looking at her with fake warmth.
At his words, the surrounding space quivered as all the sheeps began to resurrect from the dead. Their spilled blood started to retreat back inside them as life began to shine in those blank eyes. Soon, they were all on their feet, with pristine bodies—but their minds… their minds were shattered.
And it wasn't even done.
Again and again and again, Noah resurrected them each time Bari killed them, with the pretext that he wasn't satisfied. This continued like this for a while or more precisely… for the hundredth time.
At this instant, Bari and her loved ones might as well be considered dead.
Their minds were gone. Their eyes hazy, black putrid blood with a disgusting scent of pain and grief flowed down their cheeks like a flowing river. They sat there on the beautiful white flowery ground, unable to even budge or react.
Bari was covered with blood from head to toe, the blood of her loved ones. She had killed them so many times that now… it almost became an instinct. The proof came soon as she raised her hand in a weak, sluggish, and pitiful manner to stab her sister in the belly.
Her mind was not working. it was her body.
Her sister, too, didn't move. By now, the numerous deaths had numbed their minds and senses.
They didn't feel anything.
It was truly a harrowing sight, but it became even more so when Noah gave them back their original appearances—and there… things really started to settle inside Bari's mind as she looked at her loved ones' dead bodies.
She squealed like a banshee, her cry echoing through the beautiful space in a woeful manner. She approached her bloodied loved ones with haste, but in that haste, she lost her balance and fell face-first with a loud thud, making the flowers on the ground be covered in her tears of black blood.
She didn't care. She stood up and then approached again, this time managing to be close without falling.
It was a close call, honestly.
She started to cry and ask for forgiveness. Then she turned and looked at Noah. And instead of feeling hate beyond measure, she felt hope—and she kneeled on the ground shakily and stiffly, her breathing ragged and the words she wanted to say choked under the walls of her throat.
But she steeled herself with one final will, before—
"P-Please… save my family…" she begged.
That scene was almost tearful to watch. A woman on her knees, renouncing her dignity in order to save her dead family.
Yes, it would have been touching… if people didn't know what she used to do.
Because truly, can you feel pity for a rapist?
A being who saw someone living their life tranquilly and decided, "Oh! Let's give this person some deep trauma!" and then actually went and did that by raping them?
It's wild to think about it.
After all, if you desire something like that, there are many brothels in the world. If you like situations where you dominate and rape, you can pay someone to play the game with you…
So why rape? Why destroy the lives of others just because you can't control your fucking urges?
The more Noah thought about it, the more he couldn't control the anger that was boiling inside his very being like a thunderstorm on a turbulent ocean.
He wanted to make Bari suffer so much that she would no longer recognize anything. So much that she would lose herself in endless pain.
So—
"Save you? Save your family? Bari… the very fact that you dare to say this to my face means I'm not torturing you enough, right?" Noah's voice was like the clap of divine thunder. It was swift, but extremely loud to the ears.
Bari quivered under his voice, her head bowing to the ground as she pleaded for mercy and forgiveness, but Noah wasn't in the mood for that kind of crap anymore.
Instead, he raised his right hand in a deliberately slow manner.
But in that process, a cornucopia of colors gathered around his palm and started to twist and swirl upon themselves as a spherical shape began to form. It looked like any other sphere, just this one was made with an uncountable number of colors, and inside… there was a single tree made of white flame, with a white phoenix at the top of the tree looking bored.
This was a small realm Noah created on the spot.
Noah then took Bari's soul. She instantly cried out in panic, but Noah ignored her completely. He tied her soul to the very realm and transported her inside—under the burning tree.
Chains made of white flames burst from the tree and grabbed her whole body, then chained her under it.
"ARGGGGGHHHH!" A sharp and agonizing cry echoed as Bari felt her very being burn under the white flame.
"It's not over yet," Noah muttered under his breath as he took the souls of her loved ones before giving them the shapes of parasites and putting them inside Bari's body.
"You will suffer unimaginable pain if you don't eat Bari from the inside out." That was the condition Noah placed.
And without needing further instruction, they started to eat at Bari's heart, intestines, organs, and even her throat and eyes… in fact, they were eating her whole. But Bari was recovering fast—only, she wished she didn't, as the parasites devoured her again.
"And this…" Noah started to speak as he looked at the scene inside the realm—
"…this is for eternity," he finished, and as if hearing his words, Bari cried out,
"NOOOOOOOOOOO!!!"
But unfortunately…
It was far too late.
