Episode 65

Outskirts of the Capital.

Nana, Ishanka, Lucas, and Sam walked silently along the deserted hill path. What they stepped on wasn’t brown soil, but contaminated and rotted black earth.

When they reached the top of the hill, their destination revealed itself.

“Just like that manager said, it really is an impregnable fortress.”

Nana muttered as she looked at the massive structure before her eyes. The place called the Farm was surrounded by walls high enough to block out the sky.

“Even though the world has ended, they still diligently build things like this. How truly devoted of them.”

Nana spoke sarcastically.

Lucas gritted his teeth and clenched his fists tight.

“To confine people in such a massive prison and exploit them… They’re truly wicked! Just give me the order! I’ll immediately-“

“Sir, calm down.”

Nana raised her hand to stop him.

“What did that guy say? There’s only one door and they only guard around it? They don’t monitor the walls because they’re too high for anyone to even think of escaping.”

“…Don’t tell me you’re planning to climb over the wall?”

Sam asked with a hollow laugh.

“No.”

Nana shook her head.

“We’re going through the door.”

“Didn’t you say the door is swarming with guards? The soldiers here may be a ragtag bunch, but their numbers are unmanageable.”

“Stop talking nonsense and follow me. We’re wasting time.”

Before Sam could finish speaking, Nana was already heading down the hill.

The group followed behind her and stopped in front of the most secluded section of the wall.

An endlessly stretching gray wall.

No matter how much they craned their necks back, they couldn’t see the top. Nana ran her hand up the wall and nodded.

“Not bad texture. It’ll stick well.”

She took out portable paper bombs from her inventory and began sticking them all over the wall. Sam still had a bewildered expression beside her.

Nana attached the ‘Sound-Eating Hippo’ last and stepped back a few paces.

Soon, a System Message appeared before her eyes.

【You can adjust the timing of when the portable paper bombs explode. When do you want to detonate…】

“Now.”

Before the message finished, the wall crumbled with a rumble and a large hole was blown through it.

Black smoke and dust clouds rose up, and debris scattered everywhere.

If she hadn’t attached the Sound-Eating Hippo, it would have made quite a loud noise.

“…”

Nana turned around with a smile toward her speechless companions.

“There, I made a door. Let’s go in.”

They gathered all the guards at the main gate?

Then just make another door.

The simpler the logic and method, the better.

* * *

Splash splash splash-

Black water swirled endlessly inside the massive tank.

The stench pierced their nostrils and the murky steam stung their skin.

This was the Farm’s Water Purification Area.

People were carrying out the rotten water with their bare hands and bare feet.

The fingernails of those dressed in rags were half worn away, and their soles were cracked with blood seeping through.

Yet no one could stop.

“Hey, who told you to rest!”

Thud!

The moment anyone stopped, a blunt iron rod struck the ground. At that sound, everyone’s shoulders flinched simultaneously.

“Not working? Get up quickly and get back to work!”

The manager stepped forward.

Through his disheveled hair, gleaming eyes glared at one woman.

Without hesitation, he struck the shoulder of the woman who had crouched beside the sewage tank to catch her breath with the iron rod.

“Hey! Who told you to rest! Why aren’t you moving quickly?!”

Crack!

With the sound of flesh tearing, the iron rod struck the woman’s back.

“Ugh… I’m, I’m sorry…”

The manager acted as if he couldn’t hear the woman’s voice, kicking the fallen woman and swinging the iron rod like he was beating an animal.

The woman’s body went limp and lifeless, but his hands didn’t stop.

No, rather, he seemed to enjoy the cruel act.

The manager’s face, grinning from ear to ear, was a demon itself.

“See, these animal bastards need a good beating as medicine. Don’t you think?”

As he stepped over the fallen woman and wandered around giggling, it happened.

“You’re just playing around.”

At the clear, resonant voice from behind him, the manager whipped his body around.

“Who… Gack?!”

Instead of an answer, his vision flipped upside down.

Ishanka’s hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the manager’s hair and slamming him down.

Bang-!

With a thunderous sound that shook the floor, the manager’s face was smashed into the stone ground.

“Ugh, what are you! How dare you…!”

“Shut your mouth.”

Nana looked down at the struggling manager and picked up the club from his waist.

“Was it fun beating people with this? Did it feel good in your hands?”

“L-let go of this! Hey, you livestock. What are you doing! Hurry up and drag these bastards out!”

Instead of answering, Nana threw the club into the rotten water of the sewage tank without hesitation.

Splash. Dirty water splattered.

In the silence and breathless fear, Nana turned her head toward the people.

“It’s over. You can come out now.”

“Come out now! If you stay here any longer, your lungs will be ruined!”

It was Sam who jumped into the dirty sewage with a splash.

Wading through the knee-deep sewage, he extended his hand to the hesitating people.

“It’s okay! It’s safe now! Don’t hesitate!”

Those who had been hesitating, one by one, and finally all of them, grabbed his hand and came out of the water.

Their gazes fixed on the fallen manager. Eyes mixed with fear and hatred.

“…Is it really over?”

“No. This is just the beginning.”

Nana strode toward the manager. The manager, who had been crawling backward on the ground, screamed.

“S-spare me! Please!”

“You were so excited when beating the weak, but now you’re scared when it’s your turn?”

Nana’s eyes curved prettily like crescents.

“Don’t worry. I won’t give you a peaceful death.”

She turned her gaze to the sewage tank.

“Come on, let’s have you experience some hands-on learning. You need to feel in your body what you did to these people.”

When Nana gestured, Ishanka grabbed the manager by the collar and dragged him to the sewage tank. He threw him right into the middle of the sewage.

Splash-!

Water from the sewage tank splattered in all directions.

Hands desperately flailed above the black water surface.

“Guhurk! Uwek! Water, water is going up my nose-!”

“Oh no, you can’t come out.”

Nana pulled out a crowbar and pressed down firmly on his shoulder. Then, with a squelch, the manager disappeared into the water.

“How is it? The water tastes good, right? Now, repeat after me. Water.”

“Ugh, uweeek… please…”

“You didn’t bat an eye when others were suffering, but now that it’s your turn, you’re quite desperate, aren’t you?”

She pulled out a small glass bottle from her inventory. The label read as follows.

[Shrinking Juice]

“If you caused others pain, you should have been prepared to suffer yourself. If you didn’t know something that basic, I’ll teach you a lesson you’ll never forget for the rest of your life.”

Opening the cork, Nana poured it directly into the mouth of the manager who had barely managed to stick his face above the water surface.

The manager’s body began to shrink gradually. Just as he was struggling and trying to crawl out of the water.

“Take this, one more bottle.”

Nana pulled out another juice and poured it all over his head with a splash.

“Wait, come to think of it, I can just mix it with the water, can’t I?”

She pulled out shrinking juice bottles one after another from her inventory and poured them all into the sewage tank.

Splash splash splash splash splash.

How many bottles of shrinking juice had mixed with the sewage? The man’s body rapidly shrank, and his body that had been pigeon-sized was now as small as a sparrow.

Now the massive tank had become an endless ocean for him.

“Kyaaaah…!”

An ant-sized scream gurgled and sank into the filth.

Ding!

【Water Purification Area conquest complete.</p】

You have successfully conquered this area. This region can be converted to farmland.

Would you like to declare this place as Adrienne Rogueton’s land now?>

“Of course.”

【The Water Purification Area has been converted to farmland. This place now belongs to Adrienne Rogueton.</p】

※ Unauthorized entry is restricted.>

At that moment, the black water and land that had been giving off a terrible stench began to be purified instantly.

A ray of sunlight poured down through the gap in the ceiling where the dark clouds had cleared. It was the moment when the hellish detention center became Nana’s farm.

Nana looked down at the tiny manager floating on the now-clear water and clicked her tongue.

“Tsk, I was going to make him drink dirty water for life. But the water became too clean.”

But well, it didn’t matter. He would be flailing around forever in that vast water tank with a body no bigger than a rat. That alone would be hell enough.

“The water is clean now, but there are still some annoying things around.”

Nana loosened her neck lightly and turned her gaze.

Pests need to be exterminated quickly to make farming easier for the year, don’t they?
