Chaos

"...Now how the hell do I get out of here?"

The young man who said this was none other than Achilles, who had successfully devoured the soul of this body and completely taken over it.

Despite that being the case, he didn't get any memories belonging to this body, which was a good thing for him since the last thing he wanted was to have another persona mixed within himself. Such things would only create unnecessary bonds that he couldn't be bothered to deal with.

Of course, having no memory had its own problems.

Earlier when he woke up and was asked by a bulky man which he had no recollection of ever meeting except for that one glance he gave him before entering this body's Mindscape.

If he wasn't smart enough and asked to be left alone then he might have exposed himself to some serious problems.

...Well, considering his current looks, he was already a different person in the man's eyes.

Achilles decided to shift his attention to his current priority, which was how to get out of the morgue.

He glanced slightly at the surveillance camera that was hidden at the top left corner of the room next to the door before moving his body in a way that the camera wouldn't be able to see what was in front of him.

After making sure that everything was in position, he slowly closed his eyes and remained motionless for a while.

A few seconds later, a crow that was rotten with dirt worms crawling out of its body flew straight toward Achilles and landed on the window sill.

It tilted its head and looked at him emotionlessly.

He opened his eyes and saw the crow standing in front of him, he smiled slightly:

"..Alright, time for you to help me escape little guy."

A plan had been formed inside his mind, and now with the help of the crow, he could finally execute it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

30 minutes later, at the lounge area of the morgue.

"I think I should come back inside now."

The one who said this was the bulky man who talked to the mid-twenties woman named Yuna earlier about Achilles, who now controlled the miserable nameless young man's body.

...Of course, the two of them had no way of knowing this and just thought that something weird had happened to him.

If they were Abandoned who had never seen all kinds of strange and irregular things in this world, they would have freaked out about it.

But as a high-rank Divine within the government, they naturally thought that there must be a plausible explanation for what happened.

It had been 30 minutes ever since he and Yuna left the room, so the bulky man stood up and slowly walked to the room Achilles was residing in.

"AARRGGHHHHHH!!!!!!!"

Just as he was about to reach the hallway led to the patient's room, he heard multiple screams that spread through the entire morgue.

Everyone inside the place was startled and they all turned their eyes to the source of the screams.

The bulky man's eyes also turned serious and he started running toward the direction of the scream, which was where Achilles and a few other patients stayed.

'What the hell happened there?'

The man dashed at full speed and swiftly arrived in front of the morgue in a couple of seconds.

The loud screams and shouts were still ongoing and showed no sign of stopping. making the man even more nervous and worried.

He quickly reached out his right hand and tried to open the door but it wouldn't budge, so he raised his right leg up and kicked the door with full force.

The door almost broke by the man's leg but he held back his strength so it still managed to stay in place, albeit barely.

He shifted his attention away from the door and looked inside the room.

He was stupefied and dumbfounded by what was happening inside the room.

Patients running around and constantly screaming at the top of their lungs, some sitting motionlessly holding their legs while mumbling something inaudible. Others stood and kept hitting their heads again the walls violently. And some more kept trying to claw out their faces and entire bodies.

Instead of a place to cure the injured, it looked more like a mental hospital for the most insane and deranged individuals on earth.

...It was simply and utterly chaos.

Just as the bulky man was wondering how to deal with the situation, the doctors and other employees of the morgue quickly arrived at the scene, the woman named Yuna was also among those who were there.

The employees froze in surprise for 10 seconds before one of the doctors spoke out loud:

"What are you waiting for? Detain the patients right now!"

The group of people snapped out of their dazes and quickly rushed inside the room at the same time to stop the patients.

The woman called Yuna also came in to help and just as the bulky man was about to come in as well, he suddenly saw a silhouette flash in a corner of his eyes. He instinctively turned his head to look in that direction but saw nothing.

He cocked his head a little while muttering to himself:

"Kid...?"

He unconsciously let his feet carry him in that direction as he slowly walked out of the hallway.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

15 minutes earlier, inside the patient's room.

"Little bit risky considering how I'm only a Lesser Evolved, but it's worth a shot. After all, the longer I stay here the more chances I'll get myself exposed, so I don't have any other options." Achilles mumbled quietly while touching his chin lightly.

With the assistance of the zombie crow and his ability 'Will of The Dominator', his plan though simple — would actually work.

With that in mind, he turned his head at a nearly ninety degrees angle and looked at the patients who were unconscious on the bead. The corner of his lips lifted up a bit, then said with the warmest and friendliest smile he could muster:

"I hope you all will be useful puppets for my plan."

He grabbed the crow and hid it with his body then slowly returned to his bed. He covered the blanket over his head while thinking back about his ideas.

...Honestly, this plan was riddled with holes and problems, but he simply had no other choice.

This would be a make-or-break moment, if he failed then he would lose his freedom forever.
