Will of chaos

After Astrid spoke I realized that I never explained to her about the Authority, so I had to explain everything to her just like they once did for me.

After this break in the meeting, the issue at hand was discussed again with everyone having had time to think about what they heard and with Astrid being able to better understand what was being discussed.

"So should we kill them all?" (I)

"But we need the information they have, even now we still don't know where their bases are." (Astrid)

"It has already been confirmed that they are unresponsive, perhaps another form of torment would be more effective." (Natasha)

"You're not going to use that plan from the Orphare village, are you?" (Elizabeth)

"It worked really well that time, it was fun too." (Natasha)

"Half of them lost their minds and the Princess became a succubus." (Elizabeth)

"I won't deny that there are some unpredictable spots, but we still figured everything out through their mind control." (Natasha)

"What are you two talking about?" (I)

"In the past, Elizabeth asked me for help dealing with an Empire led by a Demigod, it was discovered that they were using taboo techniques and various other things, but the information was scant to the point where we had almost nothing." (Natasha)

"Since they were under mind control, we weren't able to get information from the enemies, but they were getting information from us somehow." (Elizabeth)

"No amount of interrogation, potion, magic or torture made the prisoners open their mouths." (Elizabeth)

"That's when I had an idea if pain doesn't work then why not try the opposite." (Natasha)

"A horrible idea from the start and so ridiculous that only an idiot would think of it." (Elizabeth)

"She used concoctions of potions and spells to increase the prisoners' pleasure far beyond the maximum level while removing the satisfaction option, which increased his frustration and messed with his baser instincts, depriving him of even his rationality at one point." (Elizabeth)

"The important thing was that it worked, some had their minds broken due to the stimulus, but the Princess who had Demigod blood was tough enough to endure it, but her mind and Soul were corrupted by lust turning her into a Demon, thanks to that we got everything what we wanted." (Natasha)

"She had gotten much stronger and more vicious, she killed thousands of people before we were able to contain her." (Elizabeth)

"She killed enemies, so it doesn't matter, what we need might be…" (Natasha)

"This plan won't work, as long as the mental connection exists nothing will affect her behavior." (Caitlyn)

"We can put her aside and try with the other prisoners, there's no use thinking about what doesn't work." (Diana)

"You're right, everyone has been through torture and stuff like it, but they might be more receptive to Caitlyn's approach, let's go with that." (I)

"I'll try, I can only hope they're not in the same state as her." (Caitlyn)

"Then let's get together again in 2 days, should be enough time for Caitlyn to at least give each other a try, shouldn't it?" (I)

"Just 1 day would be enough now that I know what I can expect worse, but the extra day gives me more time, I'll see what I can do." (Caitlyn)

------------------

2 days later I was lying on the floor covered in blood and sweat, I was in the mansion inside the Dungeon.

"That was a lot harder than I expected." (I)

"Did it have to go that far, master?" (Ibuki)

"You know me, I find it very difficult to contain my will when I decide to do something." (I)

Ibuki who was with me lets me rest my head on his legs as he feeds me the last few drops of blood from a barrel.

"Thanks, I should be fine in a few minutes." (I)

"You must stop exaggerating, Freya asked to let you know that today there will be another meeting in the crystal castle." (Ibuki)

"Was it today? Can't we postpone it until tomorrow?" (I)

"I can let them know that..." (Ibuki)

"You won't say anything, we're leaving now, Elizabeth asked me to pick you up." (Natasha)

"Don't you see my state?" (I)

"Your ears and mouth work, so you're coming." (Natasha)

I had spent these few days taking care of the creation of certain bloodlines, I failed many times causing my veins to burst, but I finally succeeded and I don't even have time to recover when my sister drags me to this meeting.

--------------

When I entered the room inside the crystal castle on the top floor of the Dungeon, I was the only one in a horrible state with blood and sweat all over my body as well as wearing half-torn clothes that had been damaged by the violent energy fluctuations coming out of my body since yesterday.

"Did you turn the night again?" (Alice)

"Tonight I'm going to sleep well, I've finished the preparations." (I)

As I spoke I grabbed a bottle of liquid soap potion and poured it on top of my head washing away all the dirt from my body.

After that, I create a curtain of shadows while changing clothes.

When I'm seated, Caitlyn flies into the room, still rubbing her eyes from sleep, everyone else already present with her.

"Did you find anything out?" (I)

"Yes, apart from the prisoner named Haku, there were two more people with their mind blocked." (Caitlyn)

"But unlike the first on the list, these 2 didn't have the echo in their mind, what they had was literally a Necromancer Seal, if I touched their mind too intrusively their bodies and Soul would be destroyed." (Caitlyn)

"Can we destroy the Necromancer Seal?" (Ivan)

"I could try, I'm the one with the highest Affinity for curses." (I)

"It would be useless, this seal cannot be removed, it would be necessary to dig into the Soul and break the individual's mind to be able to remove this type of seal." (Caitlyn)

"Then those two are useless, I'll talk to Lilith to get rid of them." (I)

There's no point in keeping an enemy alive that won't bring any kind of benefit and I don't plan on keeping them alive out of pity or one of those stupid things, so I'll get rid of them while I still remember this matter.

"The other prisoners must have nothing on their minds correct?" (Elizabeth)

"Yes, I was able to get into their minds and I realized that they don't have specific memories, nor does the will echo or the Necromancer Seal exist." (Caitlyn)

"Did you say something is missing from your memories?" (I)

"Yes, their minds seem to have parts missing from several separate places, I don't know how they can maintain a mind like that even with a consciousness that borders on normal." (Caitlyn)

"Unfortunately I couldn't get anything into their minds, it seemed as their memories formed something carried those parts away leaving holes in their minds." (Caitlyn)

"What are we going to do? Kill everyone?" (I)

"I think we just need to try that, Caitlyn." (Elizabeth)

"..." (Caitlyn)

For some reason, my two sisters look at me at the same time.

"What I have to do?" (I)

"Now nothing, your mind is clearly weak, go to sleep and tomorrow we can talk about it." (Caitlyn)

"All good." (I)

I wouldn't dwell on the subject, I know very well how mentally tired I am after 2 sleepless nights, whatever they want me to do, I'm going to need to be in better condition.

----------------

The next day I find only Caitlyn at the entrance to the crystal castle, she was sleeping on her floating pillow and opens her eyes when I get close.

"What do I have to do? Nobody told me anything yesterday." (I)

After a night's sleep my mind was clearer and my body lighter, even the blood in my body had recovered from the large amount I lost yesterday.

"I'm only going to explain it once, so pay close attention." (Caitlyn)

"What we're going to do is get into the mind of the woman named Haku just like I did days ago." (Caitlyn)

"I thought we had no chance of doing something like that." (I)

"And I don't have it alone, but with you, it will be easier." (Caitlyn)

"I need you to buy me time to sever this prisoner's connection to whoever is responsible for the echo of will in her mind." (Caitlyn)

"How do I do this? Any magic or techniques that will need my help?" (I)

"What I'm going to do the part, you just need to worry about the will echo, I need you to stop that will echo from acting against me." (Caitlyn)

"Once the connection is severed, I won't be restricted like the previous time, I'll be able to remove everything we want from her mind." (Caitlyn)

"What do I need to do exactly?" (I)

"The Will Echo will react instinctively like a monster, it has a conscience, but its instincts will. Be overriding making it easy to draw its attention to you." (Caitlyn)

"A mental battle is not like fighting normally, your spells, skills, and items are of no use inside the mind, the way you fight is also different, the only real restrictions are your affinities, your Aura, and your imagination." (Caitlyn)

"You'll understand when we get there." (Caitlyn)

After telling me a few things I accompany her to where the crystal castle prison is, on the way she tells me more about what I should expect and what I cannot do inside this prisoner's mind.
