New law of Beast Taming

"Hey, Amane. Are you awake? I am here to break you out of your room."

Loki kicked Amane’s door twice before she opened it. He was an impatient person who did not want to wait for anyone.

Amane had known about Loki’s visit for some time now. But she pretended not to notice and ignored his desperate attempts to gather her attention. The blood butterfly that had been left outside Amane’s room recorded everything.

Finally, after five minutes of letting Loki knock on her door, Amane opened it. She was done playing with Loki.

"I am sorry. I was in the shower and did not hear you knock on the door. I am ready to head out."

Amane spoke softly, and her smile pissed off Loki. Amane showed no evidence of having showered. And as far as Loki knew, the detention centre’s walls were thin. And with the way Loki had been knocking, Amane would have a hard time *not* hearing him.

Even if she had been in the shower, Amane should have heard Loki’s desperate attempts.

So, the only logical thing that made sense was that Amane ignored him.

’Tsk, this woman is a problem. She knows what to do and how to manipulate someone to make them take her side. I need to be careful while going up against her.’

Loki felt his throat tighten, and he took a deep breath. He curbed his anger, forced his excitement, and wanted to cover his rage up.

"You should not keep others waiting for long. Who knows what it would make them think about you."

Loki tried to take a jab at Amane. But she deflected his words with a calm smile and arrogant attitude.

"Oh, did I keep you waiting? I am so sorry. But next time, you should be more assertive and tell me you are there. I will come out as soon as I can."

Amane was smiling brightly. Her eyes shined in the light, which made her look eternal. Loki felt fascinated and annoyed by her at the same time.

’Tsk, this woman knows how to manipulate me just as she wants to. And I am a food, being led around by her because of my curiosity.’

"Let’s head out now. As much as I want to continue to banter with you like this, those old hags would have my head if I kept them waiting any longer."

Loki whispered under his breath and forced Amane’s door open. They both stepped out of Amane’s room and were instantly met with security.

The warden had noticed Loki’s interest in Amane. And he had kept an eye on them this whole time. Chief Sean’s warning continued to swim in his mind, and the warden knew what he had to do.

’I cannot allow Loki to put this prisoner in danger. The chief would have my head if anything did happen to this inmate.’

The warden decided to visit Amane to ensure nothing would go wrong. He reached the corridor and noticed Chen glaring at the guard who dared to stop him.

The poor guard looked frightened to death. But he still maintained his stand and blocked Chen’s way.

"Warden, would you care to explain what is going on here? Why are your goons trying to stop me?"

Loki sounded pissed when he turned toward the warden. His scary eyes made the warden take a step back and cringe.

"I-This is just a new security protocol, and Chief Sean asked us to enforce it in place. For a few days, gatherings would have to be prohibited. I am sure you understand Loki. There is nothing I can do about it."

The warden apologized to Loki on the outside. But he was making fun of the inmate inside his mind. He could blame what he wanted on Sean, and no one would know if he was lying.

"Really? Out of all the excuses you could have made, you blamed Sean for it. What a loser you are."

Amane interfered before the warden could defame Sean’s name any more than he already had. Her interference made the warden see red, and he turned toward her.

"What is your problem? Just because Chief Sean brought you in does not mean you get to make all kinds of statements about his orders. You do not have a right to question my authority."

The warden felt his jaw hurt from clenching it tightly. His head was beginning to throb as well.

But the worst thing he felt was the palpitation of his heart. He felt sick and tired of his life.

"My problem? Well, since you asked, I can tell you my problem. It’s your need for knowledge when it comes to what is happening. Did you think you could trick me using Sean’s name, and I will never know?"

Amane asked, and then the warden clenched his fist. Blood was beginning to seep out of his hand.

Loki noticed this unusual behaviour and was convinced. The warden had tried to fool him just now.

"Guards, stop them from moving."

The warden ordered, but the guards were hesitant. They did tend to follow orders, but Loki was a dangerous individual. And Amane was hailed as someone who had taken down the warden’s right-hand man single handily. No one wanted to see her.

Amane noticed this and decided to step forward. She was going to show these fools who they were messing with.

"Do not move. A blood butterfly is on your shoulders, and I will attack you with it if you do anything funny." 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Amane warned, and the guards felt a light presence landing on their shoulders. The warden was shocked, and his eyes widened in alarm.

"You! What is the meaning of this? How did you-!"

The warden tried to make sense of what he was hearing. He was unsure how such a dangerous thing had slipped past his guards and entered the detention center.

"Let’s not go into how I managed to slip all his past the guards. I am not the only one with the ability in this detention center."

"But unlike most people, I will not hide behind my mask of innocence. I will become the boss of this place if I want to."

Amane assured the warden, and he stuttered.

"Y-You cannot do t-that. I am the b-boss of this p-place…H-Help me! No, don’t kill me."

The warden started strong, but he ended up crying in the end. The butterfly nuzzled the warden’s neck, likely looking for the perfect place to sink its stem into.

"Don’t worry. I will let you live if you follow my orders and do not piss me off. And telling anyone about these butterflies will end your life immediately."

"I would be careful from here on if I were in your shoes."

Amane waved at the warden and watched him stand there in shock. The guards had been spared, and Amane had no intention of tormenting them.

"Will it be alright for you to reveal your cards like this? What if these people report you to the divine leader? Won’t it become a problem for you?"

Loki asked, and Amane did her best to hold her laughter back.

First, she could not see a world she could lose to Charlie. No matter how much power Charlie accumulated, she would still be someone Amane could control.

Second, the reason she was here was also because Charlie had asked her to be there. She was not afraid of what Charlie would do.

"The divine leader should not be a problem for me."

Amane assured, and Loki let out a small but startled laugh.

"Your confidence is off the charts. But you do have the right to back it up at the same time. Now, let’s head deeper into the depths of this detention center. I will show you the real reason this place was built."

"It was not supposed to be a holding facility but a place to seal something. Now, you should look at this."

Loki led Amane to the lower tunnels. It was a place Amane recognised since she had seen it before. What surprised her to see was that this place still looked safe.

Time seemed not to affect this place.

"The divine prison was kept to keep things far more dangerous than humans could imagine. Look at the size of this holding chain. Does it look like it’s human-sized?"

Amane looked up and felt her heart sink. She knew that chain and the person who had been held by them before.

It had been a half-goddess the divine guild had found. They had extracted all the power from the goddess and left her here to die.

Amane had tried to save the goddess in her last life. But a goddess who had lost her divinity could not survive without a new power source. Amane was the best example of this phenomenon.

After all, she had given her divinity to Kori to save Kori’s life. Then, she was thrown into these cells and treated as an experiment.

Amane had escaped that life only to follow the same path. She had been a fool, and her life had achieved nothing. She had even dragged those who cared about her into hell as well.

"Hey, what are you doing? Did you just set the chains on fire? How did you do that? T-They melted!"

Loki looked at Amane and then at the chains in front of him. He could not believe his eyes when he noticed it.

But Amane’s emotions had not calmed down. She was still angry and annoyed at being reminded of the past.
