The Legacy System

It seemed like in this moment of desperation Eric had actually decided to fight for his life and rights, no matter how difficult it would be.

The two drunkards were certainly startled and shocked by Eric's sudden move, as they even lost a bit of their drunken state, as they immediately stood in position to block the sudden attack.

Unfortunately, they were in for a surprise because Eric didn't actually attack the both of them but stormed out of the dungeon door.

The two drunkards were unable to understand how Eric's speed and skills had improved so suddenly, and even more so the reason why the door to his cell was open, and there was no guard outside.

'Hahahahahahah~! Hahahahhaahha~!'

Still, they didn't waste time as laughingly as they came outside to look for him. Did this guy truly think that he could easily escape from the Long Family Mansion's dungeon!?

That was nothing but wishful thinking, so they weren't in a hurry to get outside and see how Eric was actually taken down by the guards.

It didn't take them long to get outside of the cell, but unfortunately, they didn't see any guards around, and even less Eric being taken down by the guards.

There was something wrong, could it be that Eric had managed to escape!? It couldn't be, right!?

With those thoughts they immediately ran towards the entrance in a hurry with their head in a terrible condition, only to see that the entrance was closed and the guards were still standing straight.

It didn't look like Eric had actually made a run for the entrance and tried to escape, which surprised them even more.

Just where the hell had that kid run off to!? Where had he gone!? The moment that these two questions appeared in their minds, they couldn't help but think of a possibility that terrified them both.

"Nooo~! Fu*ck, run! We can't allow him to get there!" x2

By now their drunken state had been relieved even further, as they once again started running in a strange way towards their feared direction.

The more they run inside the dungeon the more terrified they felt, as there was no trace of Eric's meaning that he could have only gone deeper inside the dungeon.

This was clearly something that terrified them even more as they just increased their speed even more.

They certainly knew something about what was at the end of this dungeon, and their punishment for actually being responsible for Eric, and his breaking through in that place.

No, they couldn't allow that to happen, otherwise no matter their statuses, or their contributions to their Madam, they would certainly end up dead in their Madam's hands.

With those thoughts in their mind, they were unable to notice the lack of guards on the way, as they delved deeper and deeper into the dungeon.

In their state and condition, it took them a while to finally reach the deepest part of the dungeon, but they finally managed to arrive there without a problem when their bodies stopped responding for some reason.

It was just like they had fallen into a swamp all of a sudden, unable to take even one step more. Unable to even think of moving a step more.

What's worse was that it was impossible for them to even see a single centimeter around them. This place seemed like nothing short of a horror story butcher house.

The truth wasn't far from their thoughts, but they were clearly unable to hear and see anything that could lead them to believe them.

Well, despite that metallic and terrible smell that pierced through their noses and made them feel like they were under some underground massive graveyard.

It was at that moment that something seemed to move around the place, and alarms started ringing non-stop like they had touched upon some military secret in a military base.

It truly terrified the two poor guys but they weren't able to see anything around them, making the entire scene even more unbearable for them, as their hearts were beating like unstopping drums.

In that state of extreme panic, they felt something suddenly touch their hands, their throats, and their heads, horrifying them out of their senses.

Even though both of these men were healthy and in form they could feel that their hearts were going out of control and they were close to suffering a heart attack.

Those sudden touches already sent them on the brink of heart attacks, but they still managed to keep their selves alive.

Still, they felt some sort of warm liquid on the spots they were touched and they couldn't help but touch them with their hands and take a smell.

This was the only way they could actually take an idea of what had happened to them, and what it was actually that was happening to them.

Unfortunately, they both would regret this decision of theirs, as smelling the warm liquid in their hands, and then even tasting it a bit, they found out that it was nothing more nothing less than real human blood.

That was enough to send the two of them over that tiny edge that was still keeping their sanity, and the next moment their hearts both beat so fast that it actually started beating.

Both of them had died due to a sudden heart attack. No matter how much they regretted their decisions now, there wasn't much they could do, as there was no medicine for regret.

As for Eric, he made a beeline towards the cell opposite to his that was actually occupied by another kindred spirit.

It was another gardener that had fallen under the bad books of the guard and the examiner and was sent here to wait for his punishment.

The middle-aged man seemed too scared and too frightened to actually care about Eric, as they both took a corner each.

Of course, the kindred spirit wasn't able to sense when Eric switched places with his Blood Clone, as the whole dungeon was thrown into an uproar.

…

Even though the alarms inside the dungeon were ringing like heaven was falling and hell was about to descend upon the mortal world, there wasn't even the tiniest sound outside.

The soundproofing of this place was top-notch apparently, as three quick ghosts made their way from the Main Mansion towards this place.

While the guards were actually running like terrified rats at this moment, searching and controlling the whole area, the three white-masked ghosts reached the one in charge of the dungeon and immediately took over.

"What happened!? How it happened!? Who is responsible for this!?"

"Madam Ghost 1 we are searching through all the places, but while we have a general idea of what has happened, we still don't have the details!"

"Tell me about it!"

"The reason that all the alarms went off is that two idiots had somehow surpassed the guards and entered the 'last room' killing everyone in there.

It looked like this whole matter had happened without their conscience as there was blood all over their bodies and limbs, and they had finally died out of a heart attack.

As for the reason they were in there, was because they were following behind one of the detainees that they had brought during the day through the 'back door'!"

"What!? Do you even believe the shit you are talking you lowlife!?"

"I know that it sounds extremely implausible Madam, but this is the story that we managed to piece together after the testimonies from the guards, and the recording of the security cameras!

Under no circumstance is this my personal opinion!"

"Hmph~! Useless idiot! What about that guy they brought inside, where is he!?"

That guy had put wool on their eyes, as instead of running away, or entering deeper inside the dungeon he entered the cell across his!"

"What!? What the fu*ck is with this situation!? Anything else!?"

"We are already searching through the whole dungeon without leaving any stone unturned. We are even ready to check those special rooms, as soon as Madam allows and orders us!"

"Are you saying that there might be a mole among them!? Are you trying to say that there is a mole between my brothers and sisters that I have personally trained!?"

"No, of course not Madam, I just think of the possibility of the one responsible hiding in one of those rooms!

At this point, we have to follow any possible lead and possibility. I sincerely ask for Madam's understanding!"

"Hmph~! I will personally check on them, you better keep a tight eye on everything, and bring that guy over to me later! I need to have a nice talk with him!"

"Yes Madam, I obey your orders!"

With that said, the poor director of the dungeon had no other choice but to join his own people in checking and searching through the whole place.

He had to find a trace, he had to find a lead otherwise, he was done for! He had to find a lead no matter what.

…

As the whole dungeon was under lockdown, going through a scary search, Eric and his cell buddy awaited morning to come and the small light entering their room through a weird hole above their heads.

Their current situation was unknown to the two of them, as they were each sleeping sitting and traveling through their own dreams.

'Dong…, dong…, dong…'

It was at this moment, that the door to their cell was knocked upon hard, and some guard kicked it open before appearing in front of Eric and the other guy with scary looks.

"You bastards need to come with me!"

"No, please no! I didn't do anything! Please don't kill me! Please!"

While Eric was rather calm, the other guy seemed to have lost it…
