The first step was done after little hiccups, but it was done eventually.
And now it was time to squeeze her dry of everything she knew about her race.
"Tell me everything about your race, your people, and everything about the enemy."
"You have to be more specific than that," she slowly stood up, while her face returned to look rosy and alluring like before, "you have to know that inside my body, inside all of our bodies, there is some sort of restriction that will prevent us from delving any vital information to outsiders like you."
I frowned when I heard what she said. "Are you telling me the power of your restriction is much greater than the power of the system?" I asked in doubt, and she snorted in response.
"Don't forget I came from outside," she shortly laughed, "so this pathetic toy you are calling a system can't do much to me anyway."
"Oh! Then kneel!" I ordered her to see if the contract would be effective or not. If not, then it'd be a problem.
"I'll kneel for you without the need for any contract or system," and unlike what I expected, she slowly knelt in obvious obedience that I couldn't tell if it was sincere or not.
This troublesome lady! Now I couldn't test if the system power worked on her or what! Damn!
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThis was the first time ever for me to meet up with such trouble when using my contracts.
"Tell me everything you know about your people then," I paused before adding, "this is an order!"
"Ahhh!" Just when she tried to open her mouth, her body shook violently. I saw a copious amount of red gas coming out from her body before it got vaporised in the next instant.
In my eyes, she seemed to be struggling against something. From the look of it, something inside her got stirred up in response to my order and her desire to speak, and started to fight against something intangible.
Was this the power of contract enforced by the system over her? I looked at her agonising twitching face for a long minute.
Then a thought crossed my mind.
I couldn't tell if she was the one struggling against the system's restriction or that thing she proclaimed inside her body.
Tsk! I couldn't tell if she was the one doing this or she was prevented from saying anything. And that truly sucked!
"Don't tell me anything yet," I said, ending my force imposing on her and putting an end to her suffering.
After all, I wasn't that type of sadist.
"I told you before… Cough, cough… Be more specific for such restrictions to be much weaker… Cough, cough!"
She coughed and I saw drops of dark red dots falling out on the ground amidst her coughs. She was bleeding internally, and that clash seemed quite fierce.
But from my interaction with her so far, I knew how sneaky b*tch she was. I couldn't just believe anything I saw, not even when she'd cough out blood.
That blood came as a sign of how brutal such a clash was, yet it didn't depict or tell what caused that clash in the first place.
Seeing such a state she was in made me feel little sympathy towards her, a feeling that got crushed instantly by my will.
She wasn't my Hilary, she was my enemy! And I shouldn't feel such feelings towards her, not at this crucial moment at least.
"Then tell me what you know about the people behind this scheme here," I thought about what I should ask. And frankly asking her about yet to come enemies to fight wasn't going to help me a lot.
What if she took an excuse of getting exhausted from being tortured and asked for a leave and rest? Tsk! Against such b*tch, I had to be more attentive to what I ask or say.
So I decided to ask about what I truly desired most right now, the enemies I was going to face.
"Yes, I know about the ones orchestrating all this," and this time no clash happened, "after all, you are going against what you can describe as one of the royal families of my people this time."
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"You got ranks and families? Royals and commoners?" I calmly asked to make sure of what she just said.
"Any community anywhere will have lucky bastards and cursed ones."
"And you? Are you one of the commoners then?" from her tone of disdain and selection of words, I could tell she wasn't one of the wealthy or authoritative dudes in her people.
"Of course I was! Who do you think I am! Your girl isn't just nobody!" and unlike what I thought, she seemed to come from a very strong and famous family back there.
And when she spoke, she looked quite enraged and pumped up about this. I never thought she'd be such a kind of person, one who placed too much importance over her background.
"Do you think anyone can know the information I have? Humph! If I was a commoner, then forget even knowing the most basic intel about the vast operations going all over the cosmos!"
And when I remained silent and looked at her in such a weird way, she blurted out. She seemed to have a weak spot towards such a thing, her pride!
Great! I could now start exploiting such a thing and see if I could push her to speak further about her secrets of her own volition.
"Ahem! I just thought you are someone normal," I started pushing on her weak spot even further, "you never gave me such a vibe at all."
"You… How can someone like me be a commoner? Huh!"
She pointed at her body, and I couldn't help but gulp in response. "It's just you who took over my girl's body. Besides, you never showed any sign of being a royal before."
"I… Good! That's just great, Hye!" she fumed in rage, and I was now sure I found her soft spot.
