In the midst of my enjoyable, grin inducing work, Jahi tossed the Orc beside me, saying "When you're done... having fun with the Human, start extracting some information from her and Eusa here, please."
Nodding, I grinned down at the slack face of Tris, tears streaming from her eyes.
The woman was sobbing beneath me, her eyes filled with regret and hate as she glared up at me.
There wasn't a scratch on her body, which made the scene all the more confusing and worrying for the Orc.
Tutting my tongue, I created a band of ice over Eusa's eyes and ears, removing her senses for the time being.
I didn't want to spoil the fun, after all.
It had been a few minutes of Tris and I getting to know one another, so I decided that I should mix business and pleasure.
Taking the dagger, I watched as her crimson blood froze on the steel blade, dropping down to the ground as small, flaky crystals.
Lifting the blade to her torso, I grinned at her as I asked "Where haven't I cut yet? I lost track."
Shivering, Tris glared at me as she spat "G-Go fuck yourself, mutt!"
My grin faltered for a moment, before it returned with more intensity.
"You still have some will, some defiance left in that traitorous heart of yours~? Need I remind you that it wasn't me who killed that pathetic bird, but you?"
She growled at me, only to cry out as I dug my blade into her flesh.
Starting from just below her collarbone, I dragged the blade down towards her hip, slicing cleanly through her flesh.
Tris cried out in pain as I cut into her body, before gasping as I let my frost seep into the wound, chilling her insides.
The woman writhed in agony as my mana burrowed into her body, dropping her bodies temperature.
"Argh! G-G-Go t-to h-hell, MUTT!"
Nodding, I let my mana continue to wriggle around her chest as I brought my dagger up to her face, slipping it into her mouth.
Pressing it against the edge of her lip, I grinned as I cut through her cheek, making her scream.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtTilting the blade upwards, I carved away at her flesh before mirroring it on the other side, creating a twisted, bloody smile.
Using my Water Magic, I let the flesh reknit itself just barely, leaving her with puffy scar tissue.
Chuckling to myself, I said "Finally feeling a little better, hm~? That's a nice smile you got there~!"
Tris glared at me, tears pouring from her eyes as I pulsed my mana inside her.
"Now, who do you work for, hm? Who paid for you to do this?"
Gritting her teeth, she fought past a sob as she spat "Your whore of a mother!"
Raising a brow, I retracted my mana from her body, making her furrow her brow.
"Just saying, I don't care for insults, but..."
Grabbing her left arm, I raised it up and-
Tris screamed.
Her scream echoed around the cavern, and I could see Leone flinch.
I had snapped her arm in two, before grabbing the broken bone and twisting it some more, shattering the bone entirely.
Clenching my fist on her left arm, I said "They do still have consequences."
With that, I granted her relief...
Kind of.
Raising my blade, I sliced the blade through her arm, cleanly severing the limb at the shoulder.
She gasped, her eyes turning towards her mangled limb that dropped to the ground beside her.
Before she could comprehend what had happened, I healed the bleeding stump, stopping any more of that wonderful liquid from leaving her body.
Tha pain assaulted her moments later, and she fell forwards, gasping and sobbing.
Grabbing her by the hair, I lifted her back up and said "Who is paying you?"
She remained silent, before her eyes widened as I lifted her arm, letting her see me heal it, the bone mending together in mere moments.
"If you tell me, without lying, I'll reattach your arm."
Blinking, she stared at the limb before shaking her head.
"Y-You... you'll still kill me... even if... even if I speak..."
I chuckled at that, nodding.
"That's true. But, that's a risk you need to take. Why bother enduring more torture for an employer who isn't here? Do they have your child, lover, family under lock and key?"
Tris gulped, shaking her head.
"No? Then you work for coin; why risk your life for something like that, hmm? Why not let us get revenge for you on the people who sent you to your deaths?"
Gulping again, she stared at her severed arm before nodding.
"F-Fine... I'll talk... J-Just... no more..."
I gave her a warm smile and placed her arm back against its socket, healing her.
She gasped as feeling returned to her arm, and she stared in wonder at her moving fingers.
"T-This is a-advanced magic! H-How can a maid..?!"
Smirking at her, I said "I did tell you that you should have done your research, no? Now, speak."
Nodding, Tris reached for her green sash, handing it to me.
"We work for... the Ikala Family... they wanted to force the Aurim Family into a corner and offer them a way out... to get access to their potions and techniques. But..."
I smirked down at her, saying "I know; the Ikala's have ties to the Sariel's, so... this was little more than that bitch being even more annoying."
Tris pursed her lips, falling silent.
"Well..."
Placing a helmet of ice over her head, I said "I just need to double check with Eusa here~!"
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmTurning towards the Orc, I melted the ice I had placed on her earlier and leaned forwards.
"So, here's the thing... Tris here, she spoke a little. Now, we can avoid me picking up this dagger and enjoying myself..."
Showing her the blood stained dagger, I grinned at her as I continued on.
"Or you can just talk, like her! Which, while boring, is much easier."
Gesturing at her, I waited, watching as her eyes moved towards the silent Tris.
"Prove that she spoke."
Hearing her gruff voice, I grinned and said "Ikala Family, who work for the Sariel's."
The Orc sighed and nodded.
"Fine..."
Looking towards Jahi, Eusa asked "May I request a quick death? Otherwise, I don't talk."
The Demoness nodded, saying "I swear it."
Sighing again, Eusa glanced down at the ground before she started speaking, her resigned tone entering our ears.
"Initially, the Ikala's were a neutral Family, but with the changing landscape, they threw their lots in with the Sariel's, but not willingly. Their heir is being 'tutored' by the Sariel's, and well...
Anyways, they wanted us to try and... scare you out of partnering with the Aurim's, so that yer Family would be weaker in the future. That was all we were told to do, and since we've been contracted and bound to them for a year, we had to.
If this was before the Sariel-Kameiel alliance, we wouldn't have even touched this job, cause I knew of ye. But... well, we can't. Otherwise, our lives are forfeit. Still are, it seems..."
She gave a wry chuckle at that, making Jahi nod.
"Thanks... Well..."
I sighed as Eusa's and Tris's heads fell to the side, leaving headless corpses kneeling in front of me.
Pouting back at Jahi, she shook her head as she said "We need to get home. I need to write a few more letters to Mother, and you two should as well... At the very least, we can remove the Ikala's from the equation, maybe absorb them in the meantime. Come on."
Giving her a nod, I glanced at the bodies before using my Wind Magic to send them into the lava lake, saying "No need to leave evidence..."
With that, the Requests were on the back of our minds as we started our journey out of the cavern, traveling back home.
We had preparations to make...
