Villain With The Strongest System - Chapter 239

Chapter 239: A letter from Escanor
[ Dear Rocky,

If you are reading this letter, then it probably means you have reached your sister while she is still alive.

Good job!

I’m really impressed by the efficiency displayed by the Champion Of Gemini.

Don’t worry, a job performed well is always deserving of a reward. So I will be generous and bestow a fitting reward for you.

I’m sure that by this point you must be racking your brains on how to return the lucidity of your sister and restore her complexion to normal.

Well, fret not, because if you want to restore the lucidity of your sister and return her complexion from purple to normal, just give her a shot of 25ml of the blue fluid medicine I’ve placed in the room directly into her veins.

Don’t worry…..

I am not trying to scam you–

I’m way too mature to play such petty tricks, afterall, I’m not Shakuni the trickster who is known to play dirty.

The medicine that you are about to administer to your sister, is a secret formula that’s only known to me in this entire universe, and without me graciously giving you a supply of this formula, your sister will never live to see another day.

So it doesn’t matter whether you bust her out today or not. For you will have to come crawling to me tomorrow nonetheless.

I have deliberately given you three vials of that medicine and not just one because I want you to take her out today and try administering another shot tomorrow, while your experts try and recreate the formula I’ve given you and then fail horrendously.

Depending on how much medicine you give them for testing, you will have to either rush to me the day after tomorrow, or the one after that, but within a week for sure you will have to come to me, because your lovely sister’s life depends on it.

Also, rest assured that your sister has not suffered any form of physical abuse.

We have not raped her, we have not inappropriately touched her.

We have not even spanked her once and treated her with dignity befitting of the sister of Champion Of Gemini.

The only thing we did to your sister was to erode her brain cells, torture her using various poisons and drugs and finally destroy her inner metabolism and her body’s capacity to produce mood regulating hormones.

In the state that she is in, she’s not even worth keeping alive, however, I know for sure that you will be too soft to put her out of her misery for once and for all, and would instead administer the shots into her body day after day, to somehow keep the memory of what she once was alive.

Nonetheless, you being an emotional fool only makes it easier for me to exercise control over your life, boy, for in the end you are not better than my useless children Sophia and Perseus.

-With hopes to see you soon,

God Escanor ]

Rocky read the letter and felt a wave of nausea wash over him. His vision blurred as the words burned into his mind. Each sentence seeming to pierce deeper into his soul, twisting the knife of despair and rage.

His hands trembled, but he held onto Riva tightly, her presence the only thing keeping him grounded as he felt his mind turn numb for a second.

Although he could still feel Riva’s frail body shivering against his, and feel her shallow and uneven breath down his shoulders, Rocky felt himself unable to look at the prison wall clearly which was only a couple meters away from him, as his vision seemed to have blurred out.

“Erin,” Rocky said, his voice barely a whisper, choked with emotion.

“What… what have they done to her?” He questioned rhetorically, as tears flowed down his eyes as soon as he spoke these words.

It was clear to everyone, and especially Erin that Rocky was starting to lose it, as being the good friend that he was, Erin immediately stepped forward cautiously as he attempted to reassure Rocky, that they would somehow find a way out of this mess.

“Rocky, we need to stay calm. We can find a way to help her. There has to be a way.” Erin said, his voice a mixture of concern and doubt as he tried to reassure Rocky that they would find a solution to this problem somehow, however, Rocky was no longer listening.

The weight of the letter’s contents crushed him, dragging him down into a dark abyss of his own making.

Images of his sister, tortured and broken, filled his mind as the thought of her suffering and the cruelty she might have endured became too much for him to bear as Rocky felt his heart blacken.

“No!” he screamed, his voice echoing off the walls. “No! This can’t be happening!”

His aura flared wildly, an uncontrollable burst of power that caused the air to crackle with energy.

Riva whimpered in his arms, and Rocky immediately tried to rein in his emotions, holding her even closer, as if his embrace could shield her from all the horrors she had endured

If not for Riva currently being in his arms, Rocky would have undoubtedly gone wild and tried to murder everything and everyone in his path, however, for her sake he tried to hold it in.

As he suppressed his murderous emotions, his breathing turned ragged and his eyes turned wild as he felt like he was on the edge of a precipice, only a single step away from losing himself completely.

However, as he looked down at Riva, and saw her pale face and haunted eyes, Rocky immediately knew that he had to stay strong for her.

With a herculean effort, he forced himself to take deep breaths and to calm the storm that raged inside him as he said “You’re right, Erin…. We need to save her. We need to find a way.”

Erin nodded immediately to Rocky’s words, relief washing over his face as he said “We’ll find a way. We’ll figure this out together.”
