Lackey's Seducing Survival Odyssey

*IT’S A FUCKING BEAUTIFUL DAYYYY! LET’S KICK OFF OUR WONDERFUL CARNAGE~!*

“HEHEHEHEHE~!”

His laughter echoed throughout the zoo like the celebration of a man who had finally found paradise.

At that same moment, his deep black hair was subtly elongated by a few millimetres. The change appeared insignificant, yet faint distortions rippled through the illusion surrounding his existence.

Step!

Lackey instantly appeared before the reinforced glass enclosure and swung his sword without hesitation.

To his surprise, the reinforced wall remained completely intact.

Nearby visitors witnessed the attack and immediately panicked. Terrified screams erupted throughout the area as people abandoned all composure and fled in every direction, desperately trying to put as much distance as possible between themselves and the rabbit-masked man standing before the enclosure.

Lackey frowned.

Without wasting another moment, he raised the gun in his left hand and pulled the trigger directly at the reinforced glass. A brilliant white beam erupted from the barrel and slammed into the structure.

Yet nothing.

*Hmm… so they’ve really been looking down on us this entire time.*

Lackey stared at the enclosure while countless thoughts passed through his mind.

The Empire had fought wars, developed weapons, and sacrificed countless lives attempting to strengthen itself, yet these people possessed materials capable of resisting attacks that should have shattered almost anything. Even now, standing before undeniable proof of their technological superiority, he found it difficult to believe that they had never chosen to deploy these advantages openly against other Empires.

Why?

Were they deliberately holding back?

Did they consider other Empires too insignificant to warrant their true strength?

If they possessed materials, technology, and highly classified weapons of this calibre, then why had they allowed conflicts to continue using…. comparatively primitive equipment?

Lackey eventually shook his head and dismissed the questions.

A dangerous smile slowly spread across his face as he looked at the enclosure once more.

“Let’s fuck it all~”

He casually flipped the gun in his hand, causing the cartridge chamber to rotate open. An Origin Core Crystal emerged from within the weapon and flew directly towards the glass. At the same time, the gun instantly replaced the previous one, and Lackey immediately fired a concentrated white beam toward the crystal.

BAM!

The beam struck the Origin Core Crystal directly.

For a brief moment, thin cracks rapidly spread across its surface. Brilliant white energy leaked through every fracture and began expanding violently, causing the surrounding air to distort as overwhelming energy accumulated faster than the crystal could contain it.

Then the containment completely failed.

BOOOOOMMMMM!!!

A devastating shockwave erupted outward and slammed into the reinforced enclosure with overwhelming force.

Crack!

The supposedly indestructible barrier finally reached its limit as enormous fractures raced across its surface before the entire structure shattered apart in an explosion of glass and debris.

The elves instinctively flinched and shielded themselves from the flying debris. For the first time in years, the wall that had separated them from the outside world no longer existed.

The cage that had stolen their freedom finally lay broken before them.

Yet nobody celebrated.

Nobody rushed toward freedom.

Years of captivity had drained something essential from their souls. Their bodies remained alive, but their spirits had long since been crushed beneath endless suffering, experimentation, and… despair.

Most merely stared at the destroyed wall with hollow eyes that no longer contained excitement, hope, or even curiosity.

Lackey observed their reactions and slowly smirked.

Crimson sparks flickered within his pitch-black eyes as he threw several swords onto the ground before them.

*Either take your own lives and end your suffering…*

A nearby guard suddenly rushed toward him while raising a weapon.

Before the guard could even pull the trigger, Lackey’s sword pierced through his chest and emerged from his back. Blood poured from the wound as the man’s body trembled violently before collapsing onto the floor.

Lackey calmly pulled the blade free.

*Or… Get your fucking revenge.*

Step!

His figure vanished from the enclosure and appeared at another habitat several moments later.

One after another, reinforced glass shattered beneath his attacks.
