YM778.TV Chapter 52 Split Up
Agatha breathed rapidly where she lay limp. The place where she lay was none other than a pool of her own blood.
The pool of blood was so thick and gave off a rancid smell. It is very similar to the blood that came out when she was still a human being.
"Are you ready to go back to work now?" Luccio asked from where he was sitting on the nice couch.
Agatha actually wanted to spend a few minutes lying down until her strength recovered. However, she felt that she couldn\'t ignore Luccio\'s question.
After what he did to her, Agatha still felt the terror from the man with the white suit that now become her senior.
His movements may indeed look calm and cold. But Agatha didn\'t expect Luccio would do something like this to her.
Without emotion, Luccio gives tortures to her with his chains for what seems like an eternity.
"Y-Yes, Senior."
Finally, Agatha steeled herself to answer the question. Although still with her face down in the pool of blood.
"Good." Luccio nodded without Agatha being able to see him. "You should see that young man again. I think making a deal with him isn\'t a bad idea."
\'Why don\'t you just meet him, bastard!\' Agatha cursed inside her head.
"Y-Yes. I\'ll see him as soon as I am able to stand up again." However, Agatha replied with complete obedience on the surface.
"Take your time. I understand that you must need a lot of time to recover," Luccio said like a lord giving mercy.
Agatha gritted her teeth silently. Unfortunately, her hands are too weak.
Otherwise, she too would have gripped tightly because she was pushed by anger.

On the other hand, Sonya, Asqa, and the Regressors had already finished killing the gray monster.
The monster\'s body fell to the ground in a very horrible state. All of its limbs were separated from its body, scattered in several places.
The monster\'s head had also been destroyed.
It wasn\'t just chopped off but shattered because it was rained down by the arrows that Sonya fired.
[ You gained 20 Exp! ]
[ You gained 20 Exp! ]
[ You gained 20 Exp! ]
...
They all gain Exp. But the amount of Exp they gained had absolutely no effect.
The amount is still lacking a lot to advance to the next level
Rodney walked towards the monster and then thrust his sword into the monster\'s gray chest.
*CRAAT!*
Then he cut the meat with ease. Not long after, Rodney has taken an object shaped similar to an isosceles triangle. But the bottom of the triangle is curved.
"Here it is." Rodney raised the object he got from inside the monster\'s body towards them.
"I didn\'t know that the artifact pieces were inside that monster," Sonya asked while staring at the artifact piece that was still covered in blood and the monster\'s innards with a frown.
"Yeah, they\'re in the bodies of monsters," Rodney replied.
After that, the artifact piece disappeared from Rodney\'s hand. He put it in his Inventory.
"Let\'s continue. If we can find the other pieces faster, we can finish this Quest quickly and take another one," Rodney said.
"So we can take the Night Quest more than once a night?" Sonya asked.
"We can," Mona answered her question. "That\'s a very rare thing to do because usually, players have trouble completing just one Quest. But it can be done."
Sonya nodded in understanding. "If the monsters we have to face are that weak, we can split up, right?"
The Regressors fell silent and stared at each other for a few seconds.
"I think that\'s a good idea," Reed said.
"Yeah. I guess it\'s fine if we split up now," Eric joined in to agree.
In the end, their decision depended on Rodney\'s decision who was the leader of the Regressors.
Even though Sonya and Asqa weren\'t exactly part of that group of Regressors, they were now in the same group. And the two girls saw nothing wrong with the way Rodney was leading.
So Sonya and Asqa decide to acknowledge Rodney as the leader when Clyde is gone with his business and isn\'t here.
"OK." Rodney nodded. "We can split up."
So the group was divided into three groups of two people.
Rodney is in the same group as Reed. Mona is with Eric, and Sonya is in the same group as Asqa.
They scattered in opposite directions in search of the remaining artifact pieces.
Asqa walked closer to Sonya now that they were alone. To be honest, Asqa didn\'t agree with the idea of splitting up.
Sonya, who noticed Asqa\'s attitude, immediately took her hand and squeezed it.
"You don\'t need to be afraid like that. You see that monsters are weak, right?" Sonya said. Trying to calm Asqa as best as she could.
"But... are you sure that the monsters are the only threats here?" Asqa said.
Asqa\'s words made anxiety start to build in Sonya\'s heart.
They basically don\'t know what\'s in this apocalypse other than the monsters that appear when the Chapter starts.
"Don\'t worry too much. Our Lovels are already high, right?" Sonya said accompanied by a smile that made her look confident.
Once again, a smile from Sonya can make Asqa feel a little calm.
Although actually in her heart Sonya was feeling worried. But even if she showed that worry, then there were only two worried people separated from their group. And that would make them both look pathetic.
They walked around for a few minutes. The moon appeared slightly higher than they had seen before.
"I see it!" Asqa said to Sonya in an emphasized whisper.
Sonya turned her head in the direction Asqa was pointing. She finally saw what Asqa saw.
Not far ahead of them, the gray monster stood stiffly facing the opposite direction.
"Great, Asqa. You found it," Sonya said. "Now we just have to kill it."
Asqa gripped Sonya\'s jacket sleeve. "Are you sure we can do this?"
"I\'m sure." Sonya nodded confidently. "You just need to find a place to hide."
Asqa bit her lips. "Sorry, I wasn\'t much help."
"You always say that even though you have healed us from serious wounds," Sonya said in an irritated tone.
Increasingly, she also felt annoyed with Asqa\'s attitude who always blamed herself. Even though she plays the same role as the others.
Asqa was just silent while continuing to bite her lips.
Sonya sighed. "Sorry. I didn\'t mean to scold you-"
"No. You\'re right. I shouldn\'t have said that" Asqa interrupted Sonya. "You can kill that monster. Don\'t worry, I\'ll hide without causing trouble."
Sonya smiled faintly. "Alright. I\'ll be going."
Sonya walked away from Asqa who immediately looked for a place to hide.
\'Hahh... I can\'t continue like this,\' Asqa said to herself. \'I have to steel myself. I can\'t say that I\'m useless or that it will only annoy them.\'
It didn\'t take long for Asqa to find a hiding place behind an overturned truck.
Sonya walked up to the monster. It was still not aware of her existence.
Then Sonya pulled her bowstring and created an arrow in it.
Sonya aimed at the monster\'s head. She also added her Magic Power to her arrows.
