Chapter-56: Skinless Human

Ashmus was a bit surprised when she suddenly hugged him so tightly. But he didn't think too much and embraced her back softly.

After a long time, she loosened up her tight hug and continued to stay in his warm embrace.

She had never thought that a simple hug could be so pleasant to her. She had never felt so secured in any place before, not even in her own house.

In that place, she always felt like she was in a cage and was being controlled by someone else. But here, in his arms she felt like it was safest place in the world.

She was extremely sheltered in this place as all her fear and nervousness was gone. Just by being in his arms she thought nothing could harm her anymore.

She didn't want to leave this place anymore and continue to stay here. But she knew that she won't be able to stay here for much longer so she slowly unwrapped her hands around him and looked right into his eyes.

Ashmus also looked at her and caressed both her cheeks gently and said," What happened? Why did you do that so suddenly?"

She furrowed her brows and said," I-i don't know why but i felt extremely scared after you left this place. Even though I've gone through tougher situations than this, why did i felt that way by just this dark place." She said with a little shutter.

"So that's why...." Hearing her words, Ashmus said," Maybe you were scared because your heart felt extremely lonely in this place."

After saying this Ashmus looked at her with a serious face and said," I recon that you have always been lonely all your life, right..."

Althea, who heard his words, didn't say anything and lowered her with bit of sadness.

Seeing her silence, he knew that she didn't want to talk about it so he didn't force her and said "That's fine if you don't want to talk about that. You can tell me everything you want when you feel like it. Just follow your heart and do everything it tells you to do, Okay."

Althea heard his words and her sadness disappeared. She nodded with a smile on her face.

After that she got close to him and kissed him with her own. This time she wasn't embarrassed. There was only gentle love in her eyes.

Ashmus was a bit surprised when she took the initiative to kiss him but he didn't let go of this oppertunity and kissed her back while hugging her soft body.

This time he did something more than just simple kiss. He forced his tongue into her mouth and he was quite clumsy at that as it was his first time doing something like this.

"Mnnnnnnn...."

The girl opened her eyes wide with surprise. Her face turned bright red again but she still welcomed his tongue with her own.

After a while, they got used to it and both of their tongue started entangling around each other and they started exchanging each other's saliva with passion.

Althea was totally embarrassed as her entire body was shaking like a leaf. She felt that this was extremely lewd but also pleasant.

Their tongue fight continued for at least 5 minutes and Althea was starting to feel a little itch in her lower region.

Ashmus also felt his little brother was starting to rise again. But he knew it was not the time to so something like that because he noticed that the man's screaming was starting to slow down.

He retrieved his tongue from her mouth with extreme reluctance and looked at her face.

"Huff... Huff...."

Her entire face was red and she was panting heavily. There was even a bit of tears in the corner of her eyes as she held onto his body because her body felt extremely weak.

Ashmus looked at her passion filled eyes and said," If we continue, I won't be able to hold myself anymore so lets stop here, Okay."

"Mn." She nodded her head. She was also about to lose her mind if they continued any longer. But she still felt a little loss in her heart.

Then Ashmus continued," But you don't have to worry. When we get to a safe place we will continue where we left. But right now, let me give you a surprise."

Althea knew what he was talking about and she lowered her face. Her heart was beating very fast with nervousness. But there was also a bit of expectation in her heart.

She quickly got out of her embarrassment and asked him while looking at him," What kind of surprise?"

Ashmus didn't say anything and smiled at her words. Then he turned around and walked towards the place where the dense fog was.

Althea also followed him towards the place. She had also noticed that his screaming has slowed down and thought that he was about to die. But she didn't know why they were going to that place.

Suddenly, fog was retrieved by the red sword and what she saw made her stop in her place. Her body stiffened when she saw this scene.

Because the man was still alive but there was one thing that was missing from his body.

The thing he was missing was his skin. That man was skinned alive by that black fog.

Althea felt her stomach churn as she saw this. She could only see his flesh from head down to his feet.

"See.... you shouldn't have watched this scene. Your little heart couldn't bear this, right." Seeing her body stiffen, Ashmus said to her.

Althea got out of her daze and shook her head and said," No, I'm fine."

"Sigh.... You know you don't have to force yourself to watch. Your heart is extremely sensitive to these type of feelings." Ashmus sighed and continued to walk towards the skinless man.

"Ugh....." When he reached there, the man was grunting in a hoarse voice. It was the most pain he had ever felt in his entire life of being a assassin.

He felt an agonising pain this whole time as he was being skinned slowly by that terrifying black fog.

When he heard some footsteps near him, he opened his red eyes with difficulty and saw that it was that hateful brat standing there coldly.

"What? Are you in pain?" Ashmus asked provocatively.

The man was enraged when he heard him and he said in a low voice," Ugghhh.... Y-you will die a horrible death. Even if you don't kill me now, they will never let you go."

"Then I'll be waiting cor them to come. Hehehe..." Ashmus laughed in contempt.

"But you are right. I'm not going to kill you now." Ashmus stopped laughing and said coldly.

"What.... What do you mean?" The man was terrified by his words and asked nervously. He didn't know what this brat will do now.
