Chapter 28: Arthur Chase, The Benevolent Father's Birthday Party
"H-Hey... If we are going to the Flooded Basement, then doesn't that mean that we are going to use the stairs beside the main elevator at the main hall?" Rose softly whispered.
Calvin didn't even glance at her as he said, "That's right, there is no way around it than to go to the main hall."
"But... what if that monster is still there?" Rose asked in genuine concern.
Calvin could feel her worries.
He stopped whatever he was doing and stared at the others. He could see that even though they were acting courageously at this moment. They were still quite afraid. None of them wanted to die after all.
Calvin sighed, "How about I go there first and check? I have a hunch that he's already gone, but if he's still there then I will deal with him by myself. You don't have to risk yourself."
"What did you say?"
Scarlette absentmindedly whispered, "Are you going to sacrifice yourself for our sake again? Just who the hell are you thinking that you can do such a thing? What if that monster demands for your left eye, won't you be blind? When that happens, how can you continue to lead us when you've lost your sight?"
"We can't let you go there alone and sacrifice yourself again. When worse comes to worst, I'll go and sacrifice myself..."
"He wants an eye, right? An eye? Then, I'll give it to him!" Scarlette fiercely declared.
Calvin glanced at her knees and found that they were furiously shaking.
"Scarlette, you..."
"Th-that's right! I won't let you sacrifice yourself anymore, Calvin! If you are going to go there, then I am going with you!"
"C-Count me in!"
"I'll do it too..."
'I'll follow you to the end of the world!"
After Ray's declaration, the others followed suit. Nicholas even declared that he'd follow Calvin to the end of the world which made the latter laugh, "I don't need a man to follow me to the end of the world. Maybe I'll consider it if it's Scarlette or Jane..." He teasingly glanced at Scarlette and Jane.
Scarlette let out a muffled yelp of surprise, while Jane abruptly blushed and hurriedly hid her expression from the others.
"Hahaha..."
The newbies collectively laughed.

For a moment, the atmosphere changed for the first time.
It wasn't suffocating anymore.
But as the team approached the main hall of the Administration Block, the thick and suffocating atmosphere returned.
Everyone held their breaths and when they took that turn for the main hall.
There, they found...
Standing in front of the mountain of corpses.
The Benevolent Father!
Whenever one stared at the abyss, the abyss stares back.
It was the same for the newbies.
When their eyes landed on the Benevolent Father.
The latter's eyes also landed on them.
"Oh... You're finally back?"
The Benevolent Father's gaze only grazed past the newbies as he locked onto Calvin's figure.
"Yes..." Calvin respectfully replied.
"Have you found what you are trying to find?"
"What...?"
"Oh? Am I mistaken? Aren't you looking for the access keycard for the Security Room?"
"You don't have to hide it. I've seen how Andre chased you and those scums standing beside you earlier. How uncouth, he invited you all to participate in my lovely daughter's birthday party, yet he has such a killing intent against my guests..." The Benevolent Father shook his head in disappointment.
"If you are looking for the keycard, then Arthur Chase possibly took it. He's been drunk with filth and has been playing with those dangerous intangible toys of his. He took that card, possibly because he wants to access everything in this madhouse for his experiments..."
"Personally, I don't care about him..."
"Unless he intrudes on my happy time with my daughter, I won't bother about such a guy with an abysmally absent sense of taste."
"But how about you? Are you going to find him and snatch that card away from him?" He raised his head and stared right at Calvin, "You want these scums to escape from this madhouse, right? There's no way around it You have to take that card to escape from this madness!"
The Benevolent Father spread his arms wide and exclaimed, "Ahh... I really can't understand... Why do you want to escape this madhouse? Why do you want to escape this paradise and enter the world of those scums! I don't understand, I don't understand, I don't understand! My darling, do you understand? Can you understand them?"
"Can you tell me what's going on?!"
The Benevolent Father went mad.
He laughed wickedly before furiously shaking the body of his "daughter".
He was so powerful that he tore off the sewed limbs of his "daughter" and in the end.
Only her torso remained.
"Oh no... You broke..."
"This cannot be..."
"The birthday party will start in three hours!"
"Why did you have to break?"
"You're really such a rebellious child... Breaking right now when your father's about to be done with his preparations for your party."
"Sigh... It seems like I have to fix you up."
He knelt down and picked up the pieces of body parts for his "daughter".
He then turned to look at Calvin and said, "I apologize for such a crude display of manners. I shouldn't have acted like that in front of the guest. I hope that you will still attend the birthday party at the Vocational Block in three hours. You won't stand me up, right? Unlike those sluts!"
The Benevolent Father fiercely declared.
Calvin smiled, "Of course, my heart will break if I miss the birthday party of such a gorgeous child..." He even stared at the torso of the child clad in that signature pink gown and whispered, "Be obedient now, all right? Your father will fix you up in a jiffy and you'll be even more beautiful than before!"
The Benevolent Father's permanent smile seemed to deepen, the blisters on his face burst with pus as his face muscles trembled in excitement, "That's right... I will fix you up... Yes, I will... You'll be even more gorgeous than before!"
He then hoisted the child's torso on his right shoulder while on his embrace were the limbs and the child's detached head still dripping with blood.
Without saying anything anymore.
He rushed past the newbies and ran through the main hall towards the Vocational Block.
"Haaa..."
Scarlette and the other women collapsed onto the ground.
The men knelt on their knees, while Hugo had a pale look on his face.
The killing intent that the Benevolent Father accumulated after killing hundreds upon hundreds of people was almost so thick for him to endure. In fact, for Calvin. It was even a miracle that Hugo could still stand there like a mountain.
Calvin swept his gaze at the newbies.
He waited until they calmed themselves down before announcing.
"The western side of this asylum still has running electricity. Fortunately, the Computer Lab is on the Western Side so we should be able to use the computers there." Calvin declared.
He then led everyone to the Computer Lab.
Nicholas sat down in front of a computer. He had just told everyone that he had a lot of knowledge regarding computers for he was a white-hat hacker for a part-time job. In no time, he managed to access some patient files. Remarkably, the files that he managed to access were for Arthur Chase and the Benevolent Father.
[Mount Spirit Sword Asylum Psychiatric Report.]
[Case Number: 42]
[Patient Initials: A.P.C]
[Consultation Date: 14/07/2020]
[Patient Age: 28]
[Gender: Male]
[Observing Physician: Ivan Ivanovich Ivanovsky]
[Mental Therapy Status]
[Hormonal changes within acceptable range after Stage 2 Therapy Status.]
[Diagnostics]
[Tests revealed a remarkable increase in blood flow in his nether regions. Further test results consistent with the previous diagnosis. The patient is in a state of Persistent Sexual Arousal. It is recommended to increase the dosage to the limit and observe if the Persistent Sexual Arousal persists or disappears. Further observation is recommended.]
[Notes]
[The team interviews Arthur in restraints, followed his lewd acts against the female staff. It has been recommended to change the staff managing him to all males, but hormonal activity in his body plateaus whenever he hasn't met a member of the opposite sex for a few hours.]
[He is strangely obedient in front of females. But footage from closed-circuit television shows that whenever a member of the opposite sex has her back turned towards him. He would whip it out and secretly masturbate behind her back. He's thrilled with doing the forbidden and the possibility of his lascivious acts being discovered.]
[He now has a habit of spraying people's faces with his essence by surprise. Multiple female staff members lodged complaints against him, but it is not recommended to punish him for he is showing remarkable progress in his therapy. No further actions nor sanctions is recommended.]
[The mental trauma that he sustained in his childhood seems to have an effect on his Therapy. So long as he's being treated by a member of the opposite sex, his hormonal activity is always above average. However, this is the opposite if the one treating him is a member of the same sex. Being treated by a male staff plateaus his progress...]
[It is highly recommended to let him do whatever he wants to do, so long as his progress continues. Otherwise, a combination of hallucinogenic drugs must be administered consistent with the previous dosage in the last diagnostics to keep his status from plateauing.]
