《There Is A Monster Among Us》Chapter 23: Orange is Alive?
Advertisement
There is just no way.
Orange, the maid, is still alive? I know I saw her fall from the ship, though.
Am I getting short-term memory loss or hallucinations?
Looking at Yellow, White, and Captain Greene gives me relief as their expressions are as shocked as mine. So, I am still sane, at least.
Pink, however, keeps herself calm and collected. Red, on the other hand, has no particular reaction. Well, that's a given since Red is ignorant of what happened to Orange earlier.
Either way, Orange walks towards us and smiles. "Good evening, everyone," she says with a wave.
"What are you doing?"
To our surprise, it is Red who asks the orange-haired maid. The rest of us do not know what to make of this.
"What do you mean?" Suddenly, Orange's smile turns sardonic. I only realize that she is holding a vial in her hand when she drinks its contents in front of us.
Another surprise comes when she proceeds to close the distance with Red, and without missing a beat, kisses him.
Although, based on the strange green liquid on Red's lips and chin when he pulls back, it seems that Orange's true purpose is to make Red drink the contents of the vial.
"What the hell are you doing, Faine?!" Red shouts as he wipes his lips and tries to spit out the liquid.
Oh. So, Orange's name is Faine?
Anyway, since Red continues to spit out what he can, I am starting to think that he knows what the liquid is. Orange's next words prove it.
"It's futile. You know how little you need for the truth serum to work, Viscount," Orange declares.
Truth serum? What?
Red can only glare at Orange as she immediately questions the former.
"Tell them about our relationship."
"What?" That voice is from Yellow.

Nevertheless, A Fantasy World
Aldieas, a world where five races exist in harmony namely, the Humans, Vasters, Serensis, Oreals, and the Alpsis. Before, this world was bathed in a gruesome bloodbath because of countless war between the races that created their own kingdoms. The lack of progress of the Era earned the disapproval of the God who created the world resulting in sending thirteen Demon Lords to dominate the world and erase any existing races. As the five races fell into despair, they summoned a hero as last resort to fight off the Demon Lords. The hero that was summoned, a lone man, has brought hope and salvation to everyone. Eventually, the hero defeated the Demon Lords but because of what he witnessed about this world, he himself becomes dismayed and chose isolation. Thousand of years has passed and the world has reached a new Era. Right then, the Hero decided to check on things. Author's Note: Do think that this is extremely similar to my other story settings. It's slightly r-15 but I guarantee that any explicit will be tone down. Further emphasis on the story genre will be updated soon.
