Chapter 868: Objective accomplished
Chapter 868: Objective accomplished
The dark elves looked like they wanted to say something, but it also seemed like their mouths were stuffed with something.
No matter how they tried, they couldn’t say a single thing.
After all, there was nothing that they could say to refute this logic.
This was indeed the situation here, so there was nothing that they could complain about.
They just never thought that they would be caught like this, so that was why they had never thought of the consequences.
This mission that they deemed to be easy had turned out to be a lifelong mistake…
Seeing that they didn’t say anything, I didn’t bother arguing with the dark elves any longer. Instead, I pointed at two of the dark elves and said, “Bring them over.”
“Yes.”
To my surprise, the elite guards actually responded this time.
Before this, they had never said a thing since they clearly didn’t approve of the method that I was using. They had been acting like they were above it, so they just followed my orders without a word.
But now that they heard what I said, it was like they had completely changed.
The way that they looked at me had completely changed.
It was as if they had been disdainful of my actions just now.
But with just a few words, it seemed that their mentality had completely changed.
It seemed that the words that I said had resonated with them and they now viewed this as a patriotic thing. After all, we were torturing invaders who had come to hurt the people of our country.
It didn’t matter what kind of torture we used, we were just doing our part in protecting our country.
As soon as the way that they viewed all of this changed, they acted completely differently. Some of them even seemed like they were willing to help…
Of course, I didn’t let them do it since I had no idea if they would be able to do the same thing that I was doing.
I was now an experienced person with how many times I had done it with my wife, so I knew the right way to torture women like this. I had no idea if they would be able to do the same, so I did it all myself.
After two more couples were tortured like this, I suddenly stopped and said, “Let’s tie them up and get ready to bring them back with us.”
The elite guards were surprised that I had stopped all of a sudden.
The way that they looked at me, it was as if they thought that I would keep going until I had tortured all of the female dark elves.
However, that wasn’t what I was going to do.
There was simply no time for all of that.
We were in the middle of a forest that was filled with monsters and I had already spent quite a bit of time doing what I had already been doing. If we wasted more time here, there was no telling what would happen.
I could see the way that the dark elves looked at me, so I knew that I had already accomplished my objective.
I had put a deep trauma of myself in their minds.
It would help us later when we tortured them for more information.
So for now, it was best to get out of this place before we were surrounded or ambushed by a group of monsters.
Of course, there was still one more thing that I had to do.
The dark crystal was still in the center of the clearing.
It wasn’t as if I could just leave that there since it was what was attracting the monsters in the first place.
I had to get rid of the dark energy that it contained and then take it away.
But when I thought about it…
“Bring the dark elves along with us.”
The elite guards were surprised to hear this, but they still followed my orders in the end.
But it was clear that they were much more on guard compared to before.
They were ready to deal with the dark elves the moment that they did anything.
When we came back to the clearing, the eyes of the dark elves immediately went to the dark crystal. There were a few of them that looked like they wanted to try something, but those looks quickly disappeared.
That was because they saw what I did with the dark crystal.
The moment that they saw the dark energy being pulled out the crystal, they all revealed looks of shock. The shock that was on their faces was even greater than the shock that they revealed when they saw what I did earlier.
It was as if they couldn’t believe their eyes when they saw the dark energy being pulled out. When it was all over, they still stood there with looks of shock and disbelief on their faces. They just simply couldn’t understand what had happened.
I had no idea what this dark crystal was, but it seemed like it was something that was far beyond important for the dark elves. It seemed like it was some kind of special artifact that they most likely didn’t even understand themselves.
Which was why they were so shocked when I sucked the dark energy out of it.
I just waited to see how they would react, but it turned out that this was also part of the contract that they signed.
When one of them tried to ask something, it seemed like he was suddenly stopped by something. When that happened, this dark elf immediately closed his mouth and stopped
trying to ask anything.
Though the look in his eyes made it clear that he was still in disbelief over what had
happened.
It seemed that the contract that they signed also prevented them from asking questions like
this since it would reveal information about the dark crystal.
In that case, there was no need for me to wait for them any longer.
With that, I picked up the crystal and we started heading back.
