Ah… how much time has it been...
"You little rat, do you know who I am?"
This tightness in my chest…
"Answer me!"
PAM
I feel a warm sensation in my cheeks.
My nose begins to bleed, and I feel a trembling in my teeth.
"Hahaha… Ah…" I couldn't help but laugh.
"WHAT ARE YOU LAUGHING AT!?"As I saw Hugo move, it felt like my world was slowing down.Is this another trick of my eyes?
I bent down, dodging the incoming fist, and took the taser out of my pocket.
"Thank you for being so big…"I placed the taser on his balls.
CLICK
"AHHHH!" Hugo screamed in pain.As he collapsed to the ground, clutching his crotch, I took the opportunity, pulled the knife out of my blazer pocket, grabbed his head, and stabbed the knife into his right eye.
Not too deep… I did promise not to kill him…
"AHH!! AHH! MY EYE! MY EYE!" Hugo screamed.
I left him there while I grabbed a small pole I had seen when I entered.
"Shut up," I said.
I threw the pole at his mouth, breaking several teeth.
"HMMMM!? HMMM!"
He grabbed his mouth as blood began to drip from his lips.
"You didn't hear me?"I jumped on him, sitting on his stomach.
"AHHH! AHHHH!"
"If you keep screaming…"I placed my knife on his d*ck.
"I'll cut you off," I said.Hugo looked at me in horror, struggling not to make a sound while nodding.
"Good," I said.
I moved the knife to his stomach—just the tip—just enough to draw a thin line of blood.Slowly.
"You know… the Aztecs had a certain rite."
"They sacrificed people to their god, opening them from the stomach and pulling out their guts.""What's interesting is that even though their guts were outside… they were still alive," I said, looking back at Hugo.
"Can you imagine the pain? The despair?"Hugo began to cry.
"I don't actually know if that's possible… but… maybe…" I said while pressing the tip of the knife into his belly button.
"Shall we try?" I asked.
Hugo shook his head desperately.
"I ask, and you will answer. No hesitation. No lies. If I detect even one… well, I'm quite the scientist, you see. I don't think a human could survive that kind of pain. Or maybe they could?"
"Hmmm! Hmmm!"
"Okay, let's begin… You were invited to the party, right?"
Hugo nodded
."Where is the invitation?"Hugo looked at the drawer above me.
"Carly."
"Ah… yes!?"
"Go grab it."Carly nodded, went to the drawer, and pulled out a small blue pass.
"How many were invited?"Hugo lifted both arms.
"Ten?"
Hugo nodded.
"Only elites? Or are more council members, apart from Alex, going to be there?"Hugo nodded.
"Only elites then?"
He nodded.
"Last question… does Lex know your face?"Hugo shook his head.
"Okay."
I stood up while Hugo let out a sigh of relief. I took out the taser again and placed it on his forehead.
"HMMM! HMM! HMMMMMM!"
"Don't worry… this won't kill you… maybe just make you a bit stupid. But that's okay, right?" I said with an innocent smile.
"HMMMM!"
TZZZZZT
Hugo trembled as his eyes turned blank.
Thud
He finally stopped convulsing, lying lifeless on the floor.
I looked at him, then at the room.I hadn't noticed before, but there were photos on the walls.All of them showed girls' faces.
Some in pain.
Some unconscious.
Some surrounded by several men.
Looking at them, a certain memory came to me
......
"Stop! Please!" I shouted.
"Don't let him turn around. He must see what happens when someone disobeys me."
"Don't look… little Noah," said a woman in a weak voice
......
Little Noah!
I snapped out of it.I looked at my hands and saw the knife pressed against Hugo's throat.
I immediately threw the knife away.
Damn it!
Damn it!
I stood up and saw Sis looking at me.
[Are you okay?]
Yeah… I'm sorry… it seems I'm more tired than I thought…
[…It's okay…]
I got up and looked at Carly, who was staring at me.
"You really came…" she said
"Huh?"
"M-my prince…"
The hell is she talking about?
"For now… could you do me a favor?"
"Whatever you want…"
"Could you… put some clothes on, please?" I said.
Looking at herself, Carly finally noticed she was completely naked.
"Iyaa!"
she screamed and rushed to the bed to grab her things.
[This boy is really…]
What?
[You don't understand a lady's heart!]
She jumped and floated toward Carly.I repeat myself…What the hell is she talking about?
