The World's most Overpowered Side-Character Chapter 255: He's a Monster

"Use PowerPoint," Viktor spoke after a few seconds of silence. "General Keele, I know you have your reservations and I know you've gained strength all on your own, but if you use PowerPoint I am sure it would put you right up there with any general under the 500th, at the very least that'd be enough to keep him at bay without dying-"

"I refuse." Keele shook her head. "Absolutely not, do you have any idea what that drug is made of?" She asked and Viktor clicked his tongue and ground his teeth.

"Of course I do, I'm part of the team that created it!" He snapped.

"Sir-" Cecelia was about to make a suggestion but was stopped in her tracks by him raising his hand.

"General Keele, this is a direct order from your superior; use the PowerPoint drug now and stop the Godslayer from escaping-"

"I said there's no fucking way I'm using it!" Keele blocked and parried Sol's flurry of attacks and slid beneath his defence, delivering several quick jabs at his torso and flashing her hand in retreat when her knuckles almost exploded against his hard skin.

"PowerPoint was created using the broken down spinal fluid and tears of Godslayers, I have a code I'll never break and I drew that line after I found out what the emporium does to these people, I don't care if they're my enemy, I won't use a drug made by torturing soone until they cry black blood!" She raised her hands and flinched when Sol broke her guard, but the blow never connected.

"Hm," Sol stared at her. "Is that the official thod?" He asked and she froze again, staring at him in disbelief; this monster that had gone silent after declaring his na and purpose had finally stopped his advances after hearing sothing interesting. "Is it?" Sol stared at her with his fist hovering right before her forehead.

[Don't you dare answer that question, General!] Viktor clenched his fists so tight the arms of his suit tore and healed from his muscles ripping through them. [Keele!]

"I'm not proud of it, I found out long after I had been nad Vice-Captain and I swore to never use it, it's wrong what they do to your kind, but I have a duty to protect my people and the Emporium is the only way I can do it, so I didn't resign, I just made myself strong enough to not need PowerPoint or the Vatui essence." Keele stared at Sol's complicated expression.

[This one is strange, Master, what should we do with her?] Alpha asked in his head knowing that if she appeared, they'd know he had help.

"I'm thinking."

"Damn that woman, I swear I'll have her head, I'll execute her myself, how dare she disobey a superior's order at a ti like this!?" Viktor seethed as he paced back and forth in the cockpit staring at the screen which showed Sol's conflicted expression as he stared at her.

"She seems to be doing a good job at both halting his attack and keeping him distracted, sir." Cecelia pointed out and the man stopped pacing and stared at her with his mouth half agape.

"General Keele, I'll be there within the next hour, keep him distracted, do whatever it takes, you just might get a light punishnt rather than be executed-"

"That's not gonna work, Viktor Flint." Sol stared at Keele lazily while he spoke and her eyes opened wide in horror as did everyone else's when they heard Sol's voice in their ear.

"I already told you that I'm going to kill you when we next et right, I'm going to destroy every outpost across the Khalla-Nova Collective first, I'll have you and all the others that co after you chasing ghosts and false leads until your faces turn purple, but no matter what you do, you don't get to choose when you fight ," Sol scratched his head watching the woman before him fall to her knees and stare at her hands in defeat.

"H-how long have you been able to hear our Comms?"

[I don't just hear you, I see everything that the Emporium does, every order every leak, I have the nas of every single soldier at my disposal, every outpost in this collective has been mapped and thoroughly investigated by already] Sol answered with a ssage that only her eyes could see.

"I knew that PowerPoint was created with Godslayers as the ingredients, but I avoided all other information because I didn't want to end up in another blind rage, Sol turned his back to the general and began walking on the small chunk of what was once a dwarf planet. "I willfully avoided that information..." He folded his arms behind himself and sighed.

"He's let his guard down, kill him!" Another general watching her broadcast snapped.

"Kill the bastard now!"

"Kill him!"

"You idiots, he's able to hear us why are you still shouting over the Comms!?" One general snapped furiously and the entire system went silent.

"She's already lost this fight, she knows this, just as much as you all do, don't lose patience, I'm not going to leave a cluster untouched, I won't abandon you generals of the emporium, I'll co for you all one after the other, base after base, outpost after outpost, universe after universe, I'll destroy everything you've built, I'll eradicate you all." Sol continued walking casually.

"She's the only one left here, there's no harm in letting soone who's unable to raise a finger at live."

[Attack if you want to live, General Keele, I'll take you away from here and put you soplace where the Emporium never finds you.]

"While I do appreciate the consideration, I am still a general of the Great Emporium, I will not be swayed by the words of an enemy, I'd sooner die!" She leapt to her feet and rushed at Sol and he smiled as he turned and saw what was clearly a smile painted on her face.

Sol avoided her sloppy attempt at attacking him and slamd his hand in her back frying every system implanted inside of her causing her augnted eyes to go out along with every device implanted in her body, she fell to the ground unconscious.

"What the fuck happened?" General Flint snapped smashing his dashboard and turning towards the office areas.

"Her vitals all stopped sir, she's dead."

"Fuck!" He snapped again causing an indenture across the plating of the floor beneath his feet from stomping too hard. "Cecelia, co with !" He snapped a third ti and the ntioned Captain flinched and looked in his direction rubbing her arm and sighing deeply.

"Yes, sir..." She responded and lowered her gaze to the floor as she began walking after him.

"Don't disturb until we get there!" He looked at the cockpit and received a bunch of salutes before he vanished behind the door she entered.

"What's that all about?" Soone asked.

"You were stuck in analysis in another deck so you're unaware, but ever since the general lost the Godslayer the other day he started taking out his anger on the Captain, I an he used to do it every now and then but he's been beating her almost on a daily basis recently, I know we're not supposed to sympathise with the woman but I've been working as her subordinate for ten years now," Soone whispered back to him and he looked at the woman with his brows furrowed.

"He's beating her?"

"Yeah, Vatui have the fastest healing factor in existence, she recovers almost as soon as she's damaged, I've seen her chop her own hand off to prove a point before, but that's irrelevant, Captain Cecelia suffers under his hand every ti he fails or loses sothing, the general is a monster who finds satisfaction in destroying people, it is his nature.

"I never noticed."

"She can always hide her injuries with healing, but she can't hide the small droplets of blood that sotis get on her, or the scent of blood either..."

Inside of the office, Cecelia stood stationary with her hands at her sides and her head lowered, biting her lips with her eyes shut tightly as the general walked around her slowly.

"Fuck that bastard, I've been busting my ass off and he just appears and destroys an entire outpost; thirteen million dead in a matter of hours and he's just gonna vanish again before we get there," He mumbled, resting his hand on her neck and getting a flinch out of her. "For fuck's sake."

"Sir, please, I'm married -hnn!" She stifled a groan of surprise when he tore the suit off her upper body with a single yank and sat behind her. "General..." Experience tales at m v|l e'-

"Finish undressing, take it all off down to the boot, I told you when you decided to marry and I'll say it as many tis as I want, that body you regard as a temple is mine, without you're nothing but an experint, I'll do what I want when I want, you sold your soul to to prevent yourself from getting harvested, just as I want your power as my weapon I also want your body for my selfish pleasure." He stared at her lustfully when she had to bend over and take her boots off revealing herself before him.

"You promised you would stop..." Cecelia stood and turned to him as he undid his buckles and she sunk to her knees and held on to his pants. "You said I had a choice."

Viktor held her cheeks with his hand and smirked wickedly with a scoff, and her eyes averted to his erection growing as he began thinking of what he'd do to her.

"I lied."
