THE INTERROGATION OF ENNEA

THE INTERROGATION OF ENNEA

"It is not easy for someone to detect my presence. You are indeed someone with extraordinary means, Duke Oriese", the stalker said to me.

I came out of our carriage to meet this stalker.

"Who are you? I don't remember we have been introduced", I said to him and asked.

"I am Hieron, Order of the Grand Cross, and I am pleased to meet you, Duke Oriese", Hieron replied to me.

The Order of the Grand Cross was the highest order of the Knight Templar Court. Its status was equivalent to the Supreme Conjurers of the Conjurer Court of Drachia.

"Why do I have the pleasure of the Knight of the Grand Cross?" I asked Hieron.

"I came to seek a favor from you", he said to me.

"What kind of favor?" I asked him.

"You may not know it but Spiros of Demetriodes is my student", Hieron said to me.

"You came to fight for Spiros?" I asked him.

"No, you got me all wrong. I want you to fight with Spiros and defeat him", Hieron said to me.

"Why will you ask that from me? Isn't Spiros your student?" I asked him.

"Spiros is arrogant because he is so talented. From a young age he was never defeated by anybody his peers and never really cared for anybody. That is his greatest weakness", Hieron said to me.

"And because of that you want me to defeat him?" I asked Hieron.

"Yes, in order for him to mature, I believe he must first be bullied. Only a complete defeat will help him change his attitude on magic and in life", Hieron told me.

"Why should I help you?" I asked Hieron.

"You are the disciple of Galadriel the Timid. Do it for me in honor of your teacher. He was once my friend", Hieron said to me.

"Alright. But what makes you think I can defeat Spiros?" I asked him.

"Hahaha, don't take his life that is all I ask", Hieron said to me and laughed.

"Do you know Spiros is afflicted with the Tarantella curse?" I asked Hieron.

"Yes, I am aware of that. He would need to suffer from it. It is a part of his training I suppose", Hieron replied to me before he disappeared.

"This person is very powerful probably a Blue tiered legendary or stronger", Sara said to me as she came out of the carriage.

"Are you going to fight with Spiros?" Rinna asked me.

"Hieron could be a friend of my supposed teacher, Galadriel. I will honor their friendship and help him this time", I replied to her.

"Huh a princess falls into my hands again", the interrogator told himself with glee.

"What are you going to do? She is a noble. You can't do with her like the other bitches", Cardinal Ecter told his companion interrogator.

"Don't pretend to be innocent with me. You had a go with the other bitch, Princess Emily before me. Do you think what happens in my dungeon escaped me?" the interrogator told Ecter.

"Rockus, how did you find out about that?" Cardinal Ecter asked the interrogator shyly and angrily.

"While you are having fun with the bitch, I was looking from behind the walls", Rockus told Ecter.

"Damn you Rockus, you even secretly surveil the dungeon", Cardinal Ecter told him.

"This is my bloody dungeon. I do whatever I like here", Rockus told Ecter.

Ecter was loss for words with the gaoler of this dungeon.

Then Ecter turned back to Princess Ennea with his questioning.

"Why did you try to poison Duke Oriese with the dark magic laced wine?" Cardinal Ecter asked the imprisoned princess who gave her hand to him to his surprise.

Cardinal Ecter took the hand of the princess instinctively like a eunuch holding her empress as she related her story.

"Because I want to frame him as a deviant. Then I can steal his family's business and treasures", Princess Ennea replied to the cardinal who faithfully wrote down her confession.

"What about the Tarantella curse? Do you have a hand in it?" Cardinal Ecter asked her.

"Yes, of course. They are all a part of my plans", she replied.

"What is the Tarantella curse?" Ecter asked some more.

"The Tarantella curse is a special curse that afflicts a cursed woman. When she mates with a fool, she would seed a part of her curse into his body. The curse will linger and develop in the victim until it is ready to be called by the curse's initiator", Princess Ennea explained to him.

"What happens after the initiator calls the curse?" Cardinal Ecter asked her.

"Well, the victim's body will explode and out rush hundreds or thousands of spiders, depending on the duration of the incubation and the strength of the bearer of the curse", Princess Ennea explained to him.

"How do you know so much about the Tarantella curse?" Cardinal Ecter asked her.

"It is because I am the originator of the curse", Princess

Ennea told him to his shock and surprise.

"She is a compliant one. She almost gave me no reason to touch her", Rockus told Ecter, stopping his interrogation.

"Come on Rockus, control yourself", Cardinal Ecter told him.

"Yes, take off your pants", Princess Ennea told Rockus suddenly to his surprise.

"You want me too, you slut? I heard you have wet dreams about another guy on your engagement day", Rockus told Ennea.

"It wasn't a dream. It was real. We had fun. Do you want some fun with me?", Ennea replied to Rockus to his surprise and asked.

"Then you will have some fun with me first before we continue the interrogation", Rockus told Ennea as he took off his pants.

"For goodness' sake, Rockus", Cardinal Ecter tried to stop the interrogator, before he said to him, "Let me finish the questions first".

Rockus reluctantly complied.

"What happened to the spiders after they bite their victims in the magic arena?" Cardinal Ecter asked Princess Ennea.

"The spiders will infect those they bit with the same Tarentalla curse. Their bodies will also explode and release more spiderlings, hahaha", Princess Ennea told him and laughed.

"Where are all the spiderlings now? They all disappeared after we arrived", Cardinal Ecter asked her.

"Oh, they found their way back to the vessel", she replied to him.

"What vessel?" Cardinal Ecter asked.

"The woman who first spread the curse of course", she replied to him.

"Who is this woman?" Cardinal Ecter asked her.

"Well, you know her very well. The both of you", Ennea told them.
