The Author's POV

Chapter 273

Kzzzzzzz'” Holding onto a cylindrical glass tube, a faint red glow enveloped my hand. The contents inside of the cylindrical glass tube slowly started to boil.

"This should do."

Staring at the gas that was forming in the tube, a satisfied smile appeared on my lips.

Glancing towards my right where one of the guards was dully standing, I removed the mask that was on my face revealing my burned up face.

"Here put this on."

Walking next to him, grabbing his hand and raising it towards his face, I gave him the mask.

"This should do for now."

Staring at the guard who with his right hand was supporting the mask on his face, my lips smacked together.

Even though he was under the effects of the serum, I couldn't really make him channel mana so this was good enough for now.

Out of the five individuals, his build was the closest to mine, and so he looked like a perfect mannequin of me.

Glancing towards my left and right to make sure that everything was perfect, I lay down beneath his feet with my back facing the door.

'Everything should be ready.'

According to my estimates, within a couple of minutes, a special unit would come to the room. That was the unit designed to hunt me down.

Just like they wanted me gone, I wanted them gone as well. My goal in killing them was so that I could take their commander's badge.

There were multiple gates at the bottom level, and according to my estimates, they were heavily guarded.

...but gates had different grades too, with some gates specifically only accessible to those that were of a higher grade.

Unlike the common gates, they should be less guarded since they required a special badge in order to access, which no one would expect me to have.

Luring the commander to me was the real goal. He was the true key to my escape.

By giving such subtle hints and flaws throughout my escape, I wanted to create a scenario where they would see me moving in accordance with their predictions, whilst in reality, I was masking my true intentions.

They were treating me as though I was a mouse stuck inside of a labyrinth with no escape route when in reality, it was the exact opposite.

The entire time, the one controlling their moves was me.

If there was no escape route, I just merely had to create one.
