Chapter 90
I woke up again after being out because someone was slapping my face. I was in a dungeon and next to me Justin was waking up due to the same treatment. Dirty and rough hands knocking us awake.
It was the prince standing there with the princess who constantly scowled at me.
Roy:”What do you want?”
Hunte:”You have a choice, you can either cooperate with us or you can suffer watch others suffer. I am Prince Hunte and this is my sister Princess Arla whom you had tried to force yourself upon, so it’s time to interrogate you both.”
Roy:”Cooperate?”
Justin:”What? Why are you? Let them go!”
Justin saw his wives with their mouths taped up.
Justin:”They’re pregnant with my children, let them go! They’ve got nothing to do with this.”
Hunte:”Oh? Then give a testimony to us that Roy is an agent for the demon lord and wants to sabotage the defense of the continent. We already have testimony from two of his friends but we need more to make sure it’s believable.”
I was quiet. I don’t know what to say. Justin’s wives were there but at this point he has a family and he has to take care of them. He has children. Evil people always try to coerce others into doing something. Whether it’s a mandate for a vaccine or a mandate to pay a fee it’s always the evil that force others against their will.
Justin:”Why are you trying to do this to him? What’s he got?”
Hunte:”Oh, no reason but the stability of the continent. Humanity needs the alliance that my father is leading in order to go forward to a better future. United, humans can keep ourselves safe from others more easily.”
Then justify the coercion that it’s for some common good or to keep people safe. Some bullsh** like that. The truth is usually because they want to benefit themselves, they have the other groups on the continent in alignment with them and want to consolidate their power or even money.
Roy:”Justin… look man… if you’re going to betray me I understand. I won’t hold it against you. You got children.”
Justin was crying with tears coming down his eyes. He looked back at me then back at Hunte. He looked at his wives who had fear in their eyes and made a painful face towards me.
Justin:”No! I’m not turning on my best friend just because you’re threatening me!”
Hunte:”Oh? Well Arla, I feel only women should hit other women.”
Arla took a whip and lashed each of the three. They struggled and their bodies shook when the whip hit their flesh. There was still the angry scowl on Arla’s face as she did that. The reaction of the cracking whip showed the shock as they jolted and tears came from their eyes.
Hunte:”I should tell you about this whip, you see it’s a special whip made from a special fiber found in the vine like plants in the desert. The vines are renown for having a certain magical poison in them that causes a terrible stinging sensation that lingers after a touch. You can see how it makes them convulse after one application.”
Arla beat them again and the jolt cames with drool now coming off the side of their mouths. Their eyes darted back and forth as the blood now seeped on their clothing.
Roy:”Justin look, just say what they want to hear you say alright. Don’t worry about me man…”
Justin was at a loss of what to do.
Roy:”If he says what you want him to say you’ll let them all go right?”
Hunte:”No because we still have a trial but we can choose not to charge you. Arla could say that there was something else that happened, but no harm will come to them.”
I know what they’re trying to do. They’re trying to use a magical recordings to get a confession from us to use against us. That’s the whole point of this. I don’t trust him. I don’t even know if we can get out but if I can get out… If I could just get free.
Still what could we do?
Justin:”No! Roy did nothing wrong!”
Roy:”Justin?”
Justin:”Don’t f***ing give in Roy! You think they’re going to stop when we give them what they want? After we give them the testimony they’ll silence us and say something like we committed suicide. That’s what they do! They cover it up. All corrupted people with ruling power are the same!”
Justin is right.
Hunte’s face warped as Justin said this.
Justin:”Think about it… could they let us live if we know the truth about the forced confessions through recordings? Do you think—“
Hunte kicked Justin in the face causing him to turn.
Hunte:”Silence! Guess you’re not as stupid as you thought you were. Arla, start torturing the women.”
Arla:”Yes brother.”
Several more torture devices came out.
Justin:”You will both never get away with this. Even if you kill us the only thing you’re going to do is get the merchant’s against you. The elves will be against you and the Empire will be against you. You think framing us is going to sit well with them? You fu**ers!”
Justin was hit again.
Hunte:”We don’t have a lot of time, as much as I would like to torture you to get a confession. You’re still just human after all. You can either choose a quick death or a slow and painful one for your wives and your unborn children.”
Justin:”Stop!”
He was punched in the face again by a jailer this time. Arla took out a knife and walked over to Arwen who was still dazed from the pain of the whip. Arla used the knife to cut open the dress revealing the bulge of Arwen’s stomach where Justin’s unborn child would soon be ready to come into the world.
Arla:”This is your last chance.”
Justin upon realizing what was going to happen now had some sweat coming down. The whipping and torture were one thing but this…
Chrissy and Edna were struggling against their bondage as they watched the knife going towards Arwen, they were trying to scream.
Roy:”Stop alright! Stop! Don’t do that!”
Hunte:”Admit to colluding with the demons then.”
I was angry.
Roy:”Fine!”
Hunte:”Make a statement with your name.”
I glared at him as Arla stood over the beaten Arwen tied up with a dagger. Justin to the side was sweating and didn’t know what to do. I could tell he felt he was living a nightmare. He had met the loves of his life and then now this was happening because we were caught at night while sleeping.
Erisu you should have fought them to free me. You cared more about the continent than you did me. You could have saved both if you just trusted my words.
Roy:”I, Roy Wang, colluded and serve the Demon Lord.”
I had no choice right?
Justin:”Roy… you shouldn’t have man… it’s just… this… this whole thing… what the f***! Why do all this? Why? You wanted Erisu the heroine didn’t you? If you wanted her why didn’t you just talk to her instead? Why torture all of us for this? Why?”
Hunte smiled towards Arla who still had a scowl.
Hunte:”Good, now that we have what we need this can go quickly. Go ahead Arla.”
Roy:”Wait! You said—“
Arwen was struggling hard as Arla cut open her stomach. Blood and fluid spewed everywhere on the floor as though Arwen was balloon that popped. The unborn baby was in Arla’s hands struggling to move as Arla began to cut off it’s limbs as though making sure it suffered as much as possible,
Justin:”You f***ers! I’ll kill you! I’ll kill you! I wish I did rap* you because all the sh you’re doing now makes you deserve it! You stupid f**king b*tch!”
Justin kept screaming as Arla then proceeded to cut open Chrissy and did the same thing. Edna’s eyes despaired as she watched knowing she was next. I sat there not able to do a thing as I was chained.
If only I could summon my soldiers… If only… I’d make sure I killed them. I’m going to kill all of them! The first chance I get I’m not only going to kill them I’m going to flay them! These two need to suffer and so does everyone who follows them.
I swear it!
When Chrissy was dead and in a mess Arla then began to cut Edna the same way. Edna wanted to scream but her mouth was bounded.
Arla:”Disgusting plebeians. Brother, next time you do the cutting.”
Justin became quiet. It was as if he was dead inside and he was in shock. Hunte walked over.
I was glaring at him.
Hunte:”You were never going to come out of this unharmed. You know why? It’s because you took something you shouldn’t have. You took the heroine when the heroine should have been mine. She should have been mine, I wanted to suck on those t*ts. I wanted to drink the milk that belonged to those majestic breasts! Somehow she fell in love with you because of your trickery. There’s nothing special about you, so for someone who tries to go above their station there is only suffering.”
Justin:”Roy… I can’t go on like this anymore…”
Roy:”Justin! Justin! You still have my sisters.”
Justin:”I need to kill him. I need to kill this b*stard prince! I need to kill him! I need to kill him now! You need to suffer!”
