Chapter 936: Interrogating once more
Chapter 936: Interrogating once more
When I arrived back in the capital, the prime minister and the regent were completely caught off guard.
“You’re already back?” The two of them both asked me this.
In response to this, I just simply said, “I already got what I need, let’s go interrogate the dark elves.”
Both of them had skeptical looks on their faces when they heard this, but they didn’t stop me as I headed to the dungeon where the dark elves were being held.
The only thing that they did was send away the guards that were in the dungeon at my request.
They seemed unwilling to do this at first, but then they decided to agree when I called for Klein and a few of his royal guards. Though they looked at me with strange looks when they heard where I was heading.
It was clear what they were thinking, but I ignored them as I headed into the dungeon.
Once we reached the place with the dark elves, I looked at the dark elves that were being held in the cells.
All of them had defiant looks on their faces and it was clear that they were thinking of ways to escape.
It was completely different from the dark elves that we were holding in our dungeons.
But that wasn’t strange since these dark elves hadn’t been touched since we captured them.
It wasn’t strange that they didn’t feel any fear since they hadn’t been broken just yet. However, that didn’t mean that we would leave them be for long.
We needed information from them and the best way to get that information was to break them.
After looking at the dark elves, I used the same tactic as before as I went to one of the cells and looked at one of the female dark elves that were there.
When this female dark elf saw me looking at her like this, she couldn’t help moving back a bit even though she was chained up. At the same time, one of the male dark elves came forward to block her as if he wanted to protect her.
As soon as Klein and the others saw this, they looked at the two dark elves with looks of pity.
The prime minister and the regent on the other hand had confused looks as they didn’t understand what was happening.
I just ignored all of this as I looked at the female dark elf and said, “The two of you are a couple, right?”
The two dark elves were completely caught off guard when they heard this.
This was certainly the last thing that they expected to hear based on the expression on their faces, but they didn’t say anything in the end. They knew that there was nothing to gain from saying anything, so they firmly closed their mouths.
Though I didn’t really need an answer from them.
The action that they took was more than enough of an answer for me to understand what the situation between them was.
In that case…
I looked at Klein and said, “Bring the two of them out and separate them. I think you know what to do.”
Klein and the other royal guards had strange looks on their faces, but they still nodded in agreement after hearing this.
During all of this, they didn’t say a single word as if they were afraid of saying anything extra. They just dragged the two chained dark elves out of the cell and placed them in the center of the dungeon. The way that the two dark elves were placed was that they were standing in front of each other, but they were not allowed to reach each other.
It seemed that they knew how to do this even better than I expected.
Though that did make me think some strange things…
Still, I tossed those thoughts out of my mind and focused on the two that were in front of me.
The two dark elves both knew that something was about to happen, so they had been struggling to break free of their captors. It was just that they were completely chained up and they were surrounded, so it wasn’t as if they could break free that easily.
Once they had been brought to the center of the dungeon, I came forward to say, “Now, I would normally ask for your names, but since I’m in a bit of a rush, I don’t think that there’s a need. Though thinking about it, it really doesn’t seem like there is a need to know your names anyway.”
The way that I said this was very casual, but it was also taunting.
The moment that the two dark elves heard this, they knew that whatever they had been chosen for was not a good thing. It seemed like they were about to be made an example in
front of everyone.
The two of them trembled after this thought passed through their minds, but then they forced themselves to reveal calm and firm looks.
It was as if they had prepared themselves for death.
It was just too bad that it wasn’t their death that I was looking for.
“I’m sure that you can already guess what I want to ask you, so I won’t waste words.” I said in the same calm voice before my eyes suddenly turned cold and I said, “Tell me what those crystals are and what you were doing in this place, or else.”
The expressions of neither of the dark elves changed when they heard this.
Instead, they had fearless looks in their eyes as they stared right at me.
I could appreciate the determination that they had, but it wasn’t as if this was what I wanted
to see in this situation.
If they didn’t give me anything, I really had no choice…
Seeing that they wouldn’t say anything, I gave a sigh before saying, “Alright, rip her clothes off.”
The dark elves had stunned looks on their faces as the hands of the royal guards holding the female dark elf went forward.
