I gaped at him. Chains? So, they are really treating them as slaves! And these…are allowed by the UAO?! Just because they aren't Earthlings doesn't mean they are less human!
"So, what happens if you disobey them?" I asked carefully.
Claude slowly began regaining his normal color, and his breathing steadied as well. Counseling him made me somehow sensitive to his emotions. I could feel the rage boiling inside him, but also the rein that keeps it in.
"Torture."
I stiffened. My ears could not believe what I just heard.
Claude continued, "The 10th Chamber's awakened ability is called Scan. He puts these barcodes in his targets, a copy. If one disobeys the orders, he scans the code that disobedient one has, and it will torture them depending on the punishment he inputs."
If it's an ability, then I can cancel it. So, why did no one ask me to do it? Not even Noir?
