Chapter 28 - Seal!

"!!!!!!!!!"

Shen Xiu hastily stood up, she looked around frantically. Her eyes fell on someone standing, few steps away from her covered in Black Cloak. She couldn't even see his face, but from the build, she was sure he wasn't an adult.

Even though she was scared, she was Gold Rank. Suddenly, Shen Xiu's face and hands underwent drastic changes. Her facial shape became sharper, her teeth and nails also became sharper. Finally, a scarlet tail emerged from her back.

She kicked towards the man.

'Sai'

When she was kicking, she felt her actions getting restricted. She fell on the floor, feeling her face rubbing on the floor, she wanted to get up.

'Hainawa'

A yellow rope trapped Shen Xiu's body completely. If before she could even struggle a bit then now she couldn't even move.

With the help of Virtual Calculation Area, he was able to memorize Kido's and use them with Flash Cast. He didn't need to repeat the incantation all the time.

"You bastard!!! who are you??? Do you even know who are you attacking??" Shen Xiu shouted in her loudest voice, her face looked ferocious.

"Don't bother, there is a barrier outside, No one will hear your voice no matter how much you shout."

Hearing that her expression soon returned to calm, "Who are you?"

Tatsuya took off his hood, "Hello, Teacher Shen Xiu."

Shen Xiu's eyes widened with surprise, "Tatsuya!! What do you think you are doing. Release me!!"

Tatsuya took out a chair and sat in front of her, "I wanted to talk to my beautiful teacher about something."

Shen Xiu didn't pay attention to Tatsuya, She tried to get up but couldn't.

"No one will disturb you for a few hours, you can answer my questions nicely or I can make you tell things."

Shen Xiu grunted, "Do whatever you want."

Tatsuya strongly grabbed her hair and picked her up.

Shen Xiu yelped, "Fuck you!!"

Tatsuya didn't say anything, he took out a short sword and plunged into her heart.

Shen Xiu's eyes shrunk, she didn't think he would directly kill her. She didn't want to die, she could feel her life passing. 'I will die.'

Just then, Tatsuya pulled his sword away and used regrowth on her.

Life came back into Shen Xiu's eyes, She started breathing heavily as if trying to take the air as if to feel she was alive. Just when she thought she was fine Tatsuya pierced the sword in her heart again.

Feeling her life passing away she couldn't help but get scared. Just when she thought she will die, Tatsuya healed her again. Again! Again! Again!

"I can continue, I can completely break you. But, that way you won't be much use to me. Teacher Shen Xiu, will you talk to me now? or should I continue." Tatsuya looked at her apathetically.

Fear crept up in her eyes, "DON'T!!!!!, I will tell you whatever you want to know." She didn't want to feel the taste of dead ever again. That emptiness, that abyss that was drawing her in. She didn't want to feel that again.

When he let her hair go, she dropped down on the floor trembling. Tatsuya let go of her binding and took out another chair for her to sit. He started putting a blanket on her after she sat on a chair.

"Now, Teacher Shen Xiu, tell me about the connection between the Dark Guild and the Sacred Family."

Her eyes shrank to the dot, "I don't know what you are talking about."

Tatsuya just signed and put the sword tip near her heart, "Did you think just because I released your biding you can escape?"

Shen Xiu started trembling, she didn't even realize when he did that. She knew if he wanted, then he could have easily pierced her heart.

"Co-cooperative relation, we help them and they help us."

"In return, they will help your family become the leader of Glory City?" Tatsuya said. It wasn't hard for him to figure out seeing the Sacred Family's action.

"Yes!!"

"Their headquarters? where is it?"

Shen Xiu shook her head, "we don't know, maybe only Patriarch would know."

Tatsuya nodded, "I want every information about the actions of Dark Guild and your family. Will you spy on them for me?"

Shen Xiu's eyes shook, fear appeared in her eyes. Soon, she gritted her teeth and a determined look appeared in her eyes, "I won't betray my family."

Tatsuya put away the sword and gazed into her eyes, "Why?"

"What do you mean why!!! It's because..."

Tatsuya completed her sentence, "It's because they are your family? Because they raised you? because they gave you resources and helped you reach Gold Rank? because they care about you? Did I miss something?"

Looking at her shocked eyes he continued, "So what? You were able to stay safe because the people of Glory City were fighting against the beasts, you got the resources because the people of Glory City went out to explore the wild to bring back those resources, you weren't living in wild but under the umbrella of this city. Since everything you or your family got is from Glory City and you can betray them then why not your family."

Shen Xiu was breathing heavily, "It's not that, we are not betraying the City. Our Sacred Family can do better than Snow Wind Family."

Tatsuya just shook his head, "You are just idiots who think they can get rid of Dark Guild once their use is over. You know nothing about your enemy. Your family is filled with, selfish, arrogant, lustful, greedy people.

You do not even respect the commoners. You do not understand that it is because of them that Glory City is worry-free. You don't have to worry about food, clothes, buildings, cleaning, and other necessities, that is why you have enough time to practice. When you get strong enough you protect those people from demon beasts. If fighters and demons spiritists are not there then commoners will die. If commoners are not there then you will die. Either by starvation or under the demon beast."

"If you rule the city then there are only a few possibilities, people will live like hell. Soon, they would start giving up on life and finally, the wall would break and the whole city would collapse. Corruption, Chaos, Lawlessness, they will break this City."

Shen Xiu was staring at the floor, she didn't have the confidence to look into his eyes. She shook her head and murmured, "That won't happen."

Tatsuya took a deep breath, "I don't expect to convince you." He spoke too much. This situation reminded him of the situation back in his world. Just the one's trapped in this world were normal people.

He pulled his chair closer to her, her thighs were touching his legs, he could smell her sweet scent, her hairs rubbed against his arms, He held her chin and pulled her face up, "then how about we make a deal?"

If someone else was in this position she might have been angry, maybe blushing but, she only felt fear, "W-what?"

"Do you know if I kill you and leave here, no one will ever know what had passed here?"

Shen Xiu could feel slight shaking in her body, "then kill me!"

Tatsuya had a small smile on his face, "I won't, I will kill everyone the Sacred Family who is not Black Gold."

Her eyes became wide open, She held his arms tightly, "No!!!!!!!!"

Tatsuya took out spars and dangled them in from of her, four different legend rank energy were radiating from them "That depends on you, I can tell you City Lord Ye Zong has reached Legend Rank, Divine Family's Patriarch has reached Legend Rank, President Gu Yan has reached Legend Rank, Yang Xin is about to become Legend Rank if the Sacred Family went against us then they will all die. The only reason we are holding back is because of the Dark Guild."

Shen Xiu stood up frantically, "That's impossible!!!" Just 1 legend rank Ye Mo was enough to make their Sacred Family not be able to list their head. Now she heard there were 4 more.

Looking at Shen Xiu whose robe fell off, Tatsuya didn't say anything just stared at her eyes.

Shen Xiu wanted to deny that but looking at spars she knew it was true. She knew no one could fake Legend Rank energy.

She sat down on the chair feeling hopeless, she suddenly felt whatever the sacred family was doing was laughable.

Tatsuya looked at the hopeless look on her face, "You have a choice, I can kill you and everyone else who is not Black Gold. Or, you can become mine and I will protect everyone else other than Black Gold. Not only that, I will help you get stronger and make you reach Legend Rank."

Shen Xiu didn't say anything, "What do you want?"

"Open your mouth."

Shen Xiu opened her eyes, a humiliated look appeared on her face. But, She still opened her mouth.

Tatsuya put his thumb and finger in her mouth and pulled out tongue

"Ugh"

'Cursed Tongue Eradication Seal'

Shortly, 'Xian' Character appeared on her tongue.
