Obsession... What's That? I Just Wish Someone Would Help Me Escape - Chapter 2
As anger surged from my core, Damian tapped the desk lightly with his finger.
“That just added another year to your sentence. You’ve been demoted and have hurt the feelings of a soldier working in the prison.”
“It’s already a life sentence, what’s a year, you’re a nobleman with a gift, why does it end in a demotion, why should I be the one framed and get free labor for the rest of my life?”
“Staying moderate saves your life. You’re from the Naetae family, aligned with the extreme conservative faction and the imperial forces.”
I felt so humiliated and wronged, I wanted to vomit. Gripping my head, I vented my frustration.
“To have my house, land, and all assets confiscated, and to be stuck in this damn prison, eating damn bread served by a damn guard!”
Damian looked extremely displeased.
“Why are you eating me?”
This place is the infamous Gavakse Prison, housing criminals with abilities, where only the worst of humanity is detained and sometimes even forced into death matches.
The current population is 49, with numbers based on the ranking of abilities.
My prisoner number is 49.
It means I’m the weakest entity in this extremely tough prison.
***
“Prisoner number 49, move to cell 7.”
The next morning, I was transferred to a regular cell.
Having been locked up in the punishment cell since day one due to curses and abusive language, this was my first encounter with other prisoners.
The cell I was assigned to was surprisingly spacious and comfortable.
As I looked around, I was startled upon seeing two men wearing blue prisoner uniforms.
“Huh…?”
Both cellmates were men.
Moreover, they were incredibly handsome, like they were out of a cell background photoshoot.
Why do the prisoner uniforms fit them so unnecessarily well?
Wait, hold on. Am I to sleep alone in a cell with these jailhouse ambassadors?
I turned to Damian with a bewildered look.
“Captain Meister? Isn’t there some mistake in the assignment?”
“This is the right place.”
“You want me to share with them? But they are a different gender?”
In response to my question, he gestured with his chin towards the duty desk visible beyond the iron bars.
“It’s a decision made from above. I’ll be monitoring right in front, what’s the issue?”
The damn guard pushed me inside and left, and I staggered further in.
And I reminded myself once more.
The origin of this world defies common sense, leading to typical situations of an ‘R-rated romantic fantasy.’
In the innermost part, a graceful man with silver hair and golden eyes was sitting upright, reading a book.
He turned his head towards me.
“Looks like a new roommate. Nice to meet you.”
He had a refined appearance, unbecoming of a prisoner.
With fair skin and gentle features, he looked every bit the noble at first glance.
Prisoner number 2 written across his chest.
And right across from me.
I saw a handsome man lying on his side on the floor, resting his arm under his head.
Like prisoner number 2, he too had a collar around his neck, for controlling abilities.
With black hair, green eyes, a large build, and fierce eyes, he looked like a languidly sprawled predator at first glance.
A scar on his lips and black piercings in his ear were noticeable.
My gaze landed on the chest of the man with a sharp appearance.
Prisoner number 1.
The prisoner numbers indicate the order of their abilities.
…Am I assigned to a cell with the worst villains in the prison?
What’s with having both the top 1 and 2 here?
Aren’t they usually kept apart?
The black-haired man, number one even among the strongest, slowly lifted his head to look at me.
“Welcome.”
I was so shocked that I couldn’t respond for a long time.
…Because I think I know who these handsome men are.
The man, who lay there like an old sergeant, asked with an expressionless face.
“Newbie, aren’t you going to say hello?”
Greetings or whatever, it seems I’m f*cked.
Prisoner number 1 lazily smiled at me, still not responding.
“Do you want me to do XX after doing XX and then XXX?”
(T/N: the original text says ““XX해서 XX한 후에 XXX 해줄까?”” But author-nim self-censored so hard there isn’t enough to indicate what exactly it is he says he’s going to do to her. It can range from just physical abuse to something s****l. I’ll leave it up to your imagination 😅)
I was shocked by his harsh R-rated curses.
This vulgarity was on a different level from the supposedly cruel, cold, and killer romantic fantasy male leads…
This guy is the real deal.
Realizing their identities, I swallowed hard.
…These guys, they’re the two main villains of the original story.
