Chapter 393: Chapter 10: Not to Be a Slave

There’s one thing that’s undeniable: the frailty and timidity Yalujia showed as a woman, combined with her appearance, indeed stirred feelings of compassion.

So, Milan had long noticed that her third brother had truly taken a fancy to her. This fact actually made Milan somewhat uneasy.

"Excuse me everyone, I’m going to use the restroom."

Milan didn’t much like the gathering.

Everyone knew they hated each other, yet they had to pretend to be forming marital alliances like ordinary people.

Both Klein and her eldest sister Natalie made Milan feel extremely repulsed and loathsome.

Rather than endure this, she might as well leave. She could always say afterwards that she was a good relative and came; no one cared whether she was there or not.

Afterward, Milan left the banquet hall and teleported back to the hospital.

By this time, the outpatient area of the hospital was basically devoid of duty doctors.

What lurked here were mostly ghouls and ghosts.

But to the current Milan, even a ghoul was much more pleasing to the eye than the people of the Faust Family.

The pitch-dark corridors of the hospital were silent and deserted, but for Milan, it felt rather peaceful.

"It’s better to stay here."

However, if she encountered the on-duty doctors here, it would be troublesome when her second brother and third brother asked about it later, and her crazy eldest sister could find another excuse to target her. So, she activated the curse within her to enter a state of complete self-concealment.

Her curse wasn’t powerful, but every advantage has its disadvantage. In this state, her form would be completely hidden, becoming a totally invisible person, not to mention untouchable by people and objects, much like a ghost.

"Speaking of which..."

She suddenly thought of something.

Her second brother, Damon, should also be in the hospital now. However, no one has ever known the location of the outpatient and operating rooms of the Demons Department. This was one of the hospital’s biggest secrets... even though her second brother was the head of the Demons Department.

How much was Mary Faust’s disappearance related to her second brother? Not to mention the Faust Family, even Milan was very eager to know.

"What exactly..."

Even her third brother wouldn’t tell her. What secrets lay behind this?

As Milan was pondering these things, she suddenly noticed a person standing in front of the elevator.

It was a woman with blue curly hair and an extremely alluring appearance.

The woman exuded a certain dark, dangerous aura.

She hadn’t noticed Milan at all.

And this woman, Milan knew all too well.

Rosa Medel!

"Ding—"

The elevator door opened, and out stepped a man.

This was a fair-haired, silver-eyed man of nearly six foot three in height, a handsome man.

This man was Milan’s brother—Damon Dailun!

Her second brother... what was he doing here?

"How is it?" Rosa asked Damon.

Damon took out a piece of paper and said, "Based on the time Mary transmitted, I’ve tried repeatedly. But, there’s been no result."

"Then we only have... that last chance. We must achieve this no matter what."

The handsome Damon, with his silver eyes, repeatedly looked over the sheet in his hands and said, "Everyone in the Faust Family, apart from Mary, is a complete fool, utterly lacking any vision."

"I’m thinking about something," Rosa suddenly took the paper and said, "could we have been mistaken all along? The information Mary transmitted might not be what we think it is."

"What do you mean?"

"Floor movement..." Rosa said, "It’s not just elevators that can move to different floors, but also staircases, right?"

Upon hearing this, Damon paused to think and said, "Yes, you make sense. Indeed as you say..."

"Then our line of thought has been significantly flawed from the start."

Damon and Rosa never discovered... the hidden figure of Milan!

And within her heart, it was as if tumultuous waves had risen!

What does that mean?

What is "the message passed from Mary"?

She... was reported missing, wasn’t she?

Could it be that she didn’t actually go missing but was hidden away by my second brother?

Is this some kind of joke? If that were true, wouldn’t my second brother be inciting a rivalry between the two major families?

She continued to listen to Damon’s words.

"No matter what, I must personally unravel the mysteries of this hospital. The struggle between the Faust and Dalen families, we are nothing but gladiators pushed into the Roman Colosseum by our slavemasters, regardless of who lives and who dies, we are all slaves!"

When Damon uttered the word "slaves," he almost ground his teeth to dust.

"Why should we live as slaves? Just for cursed objects and lifespan? Without freedom, even great power is meaningless!"

Damon raised his head, looking up at the ceiling.

"Rather than considering how to eradicate the Faust family, we should think about how to break free from the shackles of slavery! Regrettably, in the entire Faust family, only Mary Faust and I share this exact sentiment, and she is even willing to actively promote a marriage alliance between the two families. I must liberate the Dalen family from the fate of being enslaved for generations!"

Break free from the shackles of slavery?

Milan couldn’t help but think that this indeed reflected her second brother’s character!

Damon’s character has always been to do as he pleases, never willing to be constrained by anyone. He wouldn’t do things he didn’t want to do, no matter who tried to force him, and vice versa. Even that lunatic Natalie would rarely provoke Damon.

Given this, how could he possibly accept being born into servitude to the 666 Hospital due to his Dalen family bloodline? Not just him, but all future descendants of the Dalen family, doomed from birth to be slaves to this hospital!

Milan knew why Damon had looked up.

The direction he gazed in was where the director resided!

What he wanted to challenge was the "slavemaster," the director! He wanted to release the Dalen family from the fate of being enslaved to the 666 Hospital generation after generation!

But such a thought was madness.

It was madness!

One must know... "The director is omnipresent!" For every doctor, the director is a demon. To challenge a demon is something an ordinary person wouldn’t even dare to consider, yet Damon dared to do it!

Rosa also looked up and said to Damon, "You want to uncover ’his’ true face, right? Why have we become ’his’ slaves, why have we become a different race, heretics to humanity, right?"

"Naturally," Damon pondered for a moment and looked at that piece of paper.

"Then, according to what you said, should we try looking towards the stairway?"

"Yes, by that time even the duty doctor will be gone. We can properly explore what exactly is the message Anna passed on."

"Hmm..." Damon nodded, "Then let’s split up and act."

Milan didn’t dare get closer to see the information on that piece of paper.

She didn’t want to be discovered eavesdropping by her second brother.

At least from this conversation, she could get one important piece of information: her second brother knew where Mary was and what her current situation was!

He knew!

Milan held her breath and turned off her cellphone as well, cutting off all possibilities of being discovered.

"So..." Damon then said to Rosa, "At half-past eleven, as usual, I will go into the elevator."

"I’ll head towards the stairwell. And then, according to her message... 13... the extra number 13... If it’s referring to the stairwell, what could it mean? Right, should we simply ask Dave to..."

"That won’t work. We can’t involve Dave. He is my most important undercover agent planted within the Faust family, not to be utilized unless absolutely necessary."

Damon’s words further shocked Milan.

Dave? Dave Hasmond Prin?

He is actually my second brother’s man? Not part of the Faust family’s faction?

"If everything goes well... I might be able to find the most crucial key," Damon said assuredly. "I can assert that ’he’... is not some demon god. If he were truly omnipotent, there would be no reason for us to carry out cursed treatments, nor would there be a need for those strict rules. There is another force within this hospital that constrains ’him’, and what I need to do is to unearth it. Then... we will no longer be slaves!"
