Amazoness: Hngh…... Hiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Amazoness wake up after some time. When she wakes up the first thing, she saw was the blood-red eyes and then the face of the person who's those eyes are. When she saw who that person is, it scared her to death and she started to struggle to run away. But since she is still in air because of Ophis, she failed to do anything.
Primis: Are you done?
Amazoness: ...
The woman become stunned when she heard Primis words and stop struggling. She has already realized that she can't escape. She took a deep breath to calms herself down. Once she was done, she looks back at Primis. Even though she is calm on surface, her heart is still throbbing violently inside.
Primis: Good. If you will answer all of my questions trustfully then I won't kill you.
Amazoness: R-Really?
Primis: Yes. I always keep my words. On the contrary, if you lie then...
Primis didn't continue his words but a small smile appears on his face. Seeing that smile, a chill went down the Amazoness spine and she unconsciously gulped. She can tell what Primis is saying is the truth. She shivers then calms herself down again.
Amazoness: A-Ask.
Primis glanced at Haruhime who also move forward to stand in front of Amazoness. Amazoness become stunned when she saw Haruhime. Because she is afraid of Primis, all of her attention was on him. So, she didn't look around the room. Primis then asked.
Primis: Are you the one who prevent Haruhime's customer from taking her virginity?
Amazoness: Y-Yes.
Primis: Are you also the one who tell Aisha's plan of helping Haruhime escape?
Amazoness: Y-Yes.
Primis: Good. Now explain why. I can tell you have no good intention behind it. So, explain. Everything.
Amazoness: ...….
Amazoness become silent. She didn't say anything for some time. But that was her mistake. Primis don't have time to waste on her. So, in the next instant before Primis could say anything, Ophis used her telekinesis and break both of her arms.
BREAK!!
CRUSH!!
Amazoness: Arghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Primis: We don't have time to waste on you. So, hurry up. Otherwise, I wonder whether you would have any bones left by the time we are done.
Amazoness: Huff... Huff.... Huff...…
DRIP!!
DRIP!!
Amazoness started to take deep breath and blood is dripping down from her destroyed arms. Haruhime has already moved her face away when she saw such violence. She always remained in the room. Even when she was in Far East or when she was here. So, seeing so much blood for the first time makes her uncomfortable. But Primis reprimanded her.
Primis: Don't look away. If you can't even see something like this then I don't think you can follow me in the future.
Haruhime: ...….
Haruhime become stunned when Primis said that. But before she can say anything he continued.
Primis: If you really want to stay by my side then get used to it. Because in future you will see many more things worse than this. Massacre, which contains of river of blood, mountain of corpse will become common. So, don't look away from such thing. Because in future you will have to do it too.
Haruhime: ......
Haruhime become silent. Primis has already told her before that he is not some good person or some hero. So, she should throw the hero stuff which is in her mind into garbage. He is not a hero but a devil, who will do anything to get what he wants, no matter what. Haruhime took a deep breath and again and again and again. She has already decided that she will follow this Devil. So, she won't back down now.
Haruhime took deep breath one last time and then turn her gaze back to the Amazoness. Even though she still feels uncomfortable looking at the blood, she still stands firm. As for the Amazoness, she has already turned pale when she heard Primis words that there will a lot of Massacre in the future.
She started to imagine what the Orario will look like in future because of this Devil. But what she doesn't know that she won't here to see that. Primis is still looking at the Amazoness. In the first place, his gaze never left her.
Primis: If you remain silent then maybe my hand slip again.
Amazoness shudder after hearing this and bite her lips so that she can tolerate the pain. Then she starts talking, ignoring the pain of her broken arms.
Amazoness: This thin- Renard has a skill called "Uchide no Kozuchi".
'Primis: She was going to say 'thing' but she correctly herself in the end.'
[Yes. It seems like not only Ishtar but everyone in her Familia all thought of Haruhime as a 'thing' which will make them stronger.]
'Primis: I guess except Aisha, everyone in this Familia is same as Ishtar. Truly, a Familia full of bitches.'
[I agree.]
Amazoness: This skill is a level-boosting magic that can only be used on one target, other than the caster. Its effect can last around 15 minutes, after which an interval of around 10 minutes is required before it can be used again. However, those affected by this skill gained less than half the experience a normal adventurer would've gained. Because of this magic's extraordinary power, information about it is kept secret by Lady Ishtar to prevent others from targeting her for it.
Haruhime remain silent because she knows about this skill of hers. But she become afraid thinking that Primis will think that she is hiding this from her. So, glanced at Primis and took a sigh of relief when she saw that there was no change in his expression even after this hearing this.
Primis: There is more to it, isn't it?
Haruhime: Huh?
Amazoness: That is….
Both Haruhime and Amazoness become stunned together. Haruhime thought that this was the only reason and Amazoness was wondering how did Primis knew.
Primis: Are you thinking of becoming silent again?
Amazoness: That-
Primis: This didn't answer my question. I asked you why you prevented customers from taking Haruhime body. I never asked you give me the information of her skill.
Amazoness: ....
Haruhime: Dear, I think we shoul-
Before Haruhime could continue, Primis gave a stern gaze. Seeing that, she shivers and become silent. She understands that Primis is telling her to keep quiet. Primis return his gaze back to Amazoness.
Primis: So, you want to remain silent then I guess I need to-
Amazoness: Wait, Wait. I will talk. I will talk.
Primis: Then SPEAK.
Amazoness shudder and continued.
Amazoness: L-Lady Ishtar actually f-finds a way to make t-this level-boosting permanent. But if she will lose her virginity t-then it won't w-work.
Haruhime: WHAT?
This really shocked Haruhime. It was already a very big thing if someone have a level-boosting in their stats temporary, let alone permanent.
'Primis: So, I was right. If she will lose her virginity then the sacrifice ritual will become useless.'
[Yes. You were spot on.]
Primis: But Aisha Belka was against it and destroyed your plan despite knowing how much important it was for the Familia. As a result, she faces Ishtar wrath.
Haruhime: .......
Amazoness: YOU. J-Just who are you? A-And how do you know that?
But Primis didn't answer. Amazoness is becoming more and more scared because it looks like Primis know everything about them. This information which is kept secret even from her fellow members.
As for Haruhime, her body trembled violently when she heard about Aisha's truth. She always thought that Ishtar punished Aisha so severely because she planned to let her escape. But it looks like the truth is something else entirely. Haruhime use her trembling hand and grabs Primis coat to get this attention.
Haruhime: D-Dear, w-what are you s-saying?
Primis remove his gaze from Amazoness and turn towards Haruhime. Haruhime face is already pale by now. Even though she is putting a fake smile on her face, her trembling body and eyes betrayed her. It's obvious that she is very nervous right now.
Primis: Haruhime. You are not the only one who Ishtar have bought from the slave market. There are many more before you. Some of them might have tried to run away. And I can guarantee that after they were captured again, even though Ishtar punished them, it won't be as severe as Aisha Belka received. But since she received such severe punishment then it could only mean that she has done something like....
At this point, Primis stopped and return his gaze back to Amazoness. Then he continued.
Primis: Like disrupting Ishtar plans. Am I right?
Amazoness: .......
Amazoness become silent but this time it was a mistake because Ophis directly destroyed both of her legs with her telekinesis.
CRACK!!
CRACK!!
CRUSH!!
CRUSH!!
Amazoness: AAAAAAAHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amazoness screamed at the top of her lungs. The pain she received is tremendous. But let alone Primis this time even Haruhime didn't care.
Primis: Didn't I told you not to remain silent? Why do you keep forgetting?
Amazoness: Huff.... Huff.... Huff...
Primis: I repeat. Am I right?
Amazoness: Y-Yes.
Primis: Explain.
Amazoness gulped her saliva and starts speaking
Amazoness: T-The way to get p-permanent level-boosting, we need and an item called Killing Stone and...
Amazoness stopped and then glanced at Haruhime before continuing.
Amazoness: And she must be used as a s-sacrifice.
Haruhime: ..........
Amazoness: Aisha Belka was against this and she destroyed the Killing stone. As a result, the plan needs to be put on hold util we will find a new Killing Stone. Lady Ishtar became angry because of this. So, she severely punished Aisha for destroying her Killing Stone and then charmed her to take away her free will.
THUD!!
Haruhime falls down but Primis caught her in his arms. Primis look at Haruhime and it feels like Haruhime has lost her soul. As for Haruhime, her mind is in turmoil after she realizes Aisha's truth. Sadness filled her eyes.
In this place, her only friend was Aisha. She was the only one who showed kindness to her. But she never realized that Aisha was always protecting her. Now she realized that Aisha was like a hero to her that was keeping her save with the best of her abilities. Even when she was punished by Ishtar, Aisha never blamed Haruhime.
But what about her. Thinking that she was reason for Aisha pain, she didn't even try to talk with her again. Haruhime started to remember her past again. If she thinks back now, she realizes that even when she stopped talking with Aisha, Aisha still has the same gentle smile on her face when she saw Haruhime. But because Haruhime felt guilty she ignores it. So, now Haruhime felt like crying since she thinks that she wronged Aisha. Her only friend here. But before she could cry, Primis voice sounded which stopped her.
Primis: If you really felt guilty about what you did to Aisha then instead of crying won't it be better that you will meet her face-to-face in future and make up with her.
Haruhime: ....... Can I?
Primis: Have you ever thought of Aisha as your friend?
Haruhime: Y-Yes.
Primis: Then you can.
Haruhime blushed and nodded her head.
Haruhime: Mn. T-Thank you, Dear.
Primis nodded and make Haruhime stands up. Then he turns his gaze back at Amazoness.
Primis: Alright. Last question.
Amazoness: Y-Yes.
Primis: Since you know everything that is going on your Familia then you also have the information of those who are affiliated with you, didn't you?
Amazoness: ......
Primis: I want the information on everyone. Those who are affiliated with you whether they are Nobels, Merchants, Adventurers, Civilians and so on. I want all information. How many they are? How many guards they have? And also, those who came here as Haruhime Customers. I want everything.
Amazoness: ......... I understand.
Amzoness then started to tell information of everyone who are affiliated with Ishtar Familia. Their description, how they look like, their status and so on. Primis listened to everything and he also interrupts her in between to have more clear understanding. 3 hours went by, by the time they were done.
Amazoness: T-That's all.
Primis: I see. Good.
Amazoness: Then can I-
Primis: This means your work is done and you are no longer necessary.
Amazoness: ....
Amazoness starts trembling in fear.
Amazoness: B-But you p-promised that you w-won't kill me if I will answer all of y-your q-questions truthfully.
Primis: Yes, I said so and I never go back on my words.
Amazoness: Then...
Primis: But...….
At this point, a smile appears on Primis face and that smile feels like a Devil smile to the Amazoness that sends a chill down her spine.
Primis: When did I ever say that I will the one who is going to kill you.
Amazoness: Huh?
Amazoness get confused. Primis moves his hand towards her waist and take out her Assassin Dagger. Then he brings that dagger in front of Haruhime and tell her to grab it. Haruhime grabs the dagger handle with trembling hands. She fully understands what Primis wants her to do. That's why her heart his beating violently.
Once she grabs the dagger, Primis turn his gaze back at Amazoness and said.
Primis: Do it.
Haruhime move towards the Amazoness slowly, slowly. Even though her hands are trembling, she didn't stop. She has already decided to follow her husband so she is ready to stain her hands with blood. Amazoness started to panic and look at Primis.
Amazoness: WAIT. WAIT. I CAN HELP WITH MANY THINGS. IF YOU WANT, YOU CAN EVEN HAVE MY BODY.
But Primis ignored her and his gaze is only at Haruhime who is already standing in front of the Amazoness. Amazoness face is already full of horror. But before she could say anything to Haruhime, Haruhime used the dagger and penetrated her neck all of a sudden. Amazoness eyes wide opened because she saw that Haruhime eyes are full of rage.
As for Primis who is standing behind twitched his lips.
'Primis: That idiot. How can she try to seduce a man in front of his wife?'
[Whoa. Haruhime really become a completely different person when that Amazoness said that she will even give her body to you. Really Women jealousy is scary]
Primis ignored Twilight remark but in mind he is thinking of solution so that in the future he won't get backstabbed by one of his wives.
