Chapter 993: Tortured to the Limit (2/2)

He also had numerous injuries in his chest as some of the broken bones had pierced his lungs, causing them to bleed. Krune felt that it was difficult to even breathe as he realized that it wouldn't be long before he died.

Upon seeing his reaction, the lady chuckled as she said, ”Well, don't bother speaking. When I said about introductions, I meant mine.”

She flashed her pearly white teeth, taking out a knife as she plunged it into Krune's knees, wedging it between the joint as she moved it to and fro, causing incomparable pain to Krune.

Seeing the nerves protruding on his neck due to the pain he felt, she chuckled as she said, ”I'm Raka, Head of Torture Divisions. Basically, my job is to torture the captured demons and extract valuable information from them.”

She let go of her hold over the knife, grabbing hold of the knife plunged in his thigh closer to his groin, pulling it out as she noticed that it had frozen up. ”You're one interesting demon. You're able to shed your skin and mimic a human. Interesting. I'm curious as to how many of your companions are present or have infiltrated into our city?”

She then sat on his thigh, leaning on his body, using him like a chair as she yawned. She then nonchalantly took out a rectangular slab from beside the chair. But upon seeing it, Krune's eyes widened in shock.

'That's my tablet!'

”Now, let's see.” She yawned, slumping one of her hands around his shoulder, lifting her leg as she used them to rest the tablet, using her hand to scroll through it happily.

But whenever she moved, Krune felt like he would die. It was because she was heavy, tremendously heavy if he said so. When she sat first, he felt something in his legs was getting crushed. And now, he was unable to feel anything below his hips.

”I see, I see. You have 3372 Godly Points. I don't know how you demons managed to obtain the treasure that's exclusive to us humans.” She then stared at his eyes as she asked him, ”So, what had been your plan? Were you planning to infiltrate our city and grow using our methods and then kill us from the inside?”

She then smirked as she said, ”You did put a magnificent show out there, displaying magical abilities as you weaved through the battlefield without killing a single human while wounding the demons alone. I must say, you looked just like the hero from our oracles.”

”But you've made a minor mistake.” Her gaze turned malevolent as she continued, ”A hero is summoned, a blessing from our celestials. A hero won't arrive from deep within the demon territory. Too bad for you, but we won't be fooled by your abilities.”

She tugged the part of the Monster Gecko skin armor around his neck, tearing it apart as she fully stripped him bare. ”Hmm, below this skin, you look exactly like a human. Are you even able to mate with our kind now?”

She then gazed at him, expressing a bright smile as she told him, ”We'll take our time as you spill all our secrets, right? I wonder how the demons managed to make you look like this?”

Suddenly, the door behind the prison opened as a soldier cupped his fists. ”Madam Raka, the City Lord is requesting for your presence.”

”Alright, I'll be there.” Raka nodded, turning around as she winked playfully at Krune. ”The two of us will spend a great time together in the future.”

She then rolled up his Monster Gecko skin armor into a bundle, carrying it in one hand and the tablet in the other. Before leaving, she looked at Krune and said, ”You have quite the mysterious items in your bag. I'm wondering what you planned to do with them.”

She then left the room, instructing a couple of guards as the room doors closed. Krune felt his vision was hazy from the pain as he was unable to even think straight. There was a constant ringing sound in his ears while his entire body burned up.

He hadn't even reeled from the side effects of the Blood Essence Crystals while Raka had caused him further damage. On top of that, she was incredibly cunning. Upon seeing that his blood froze the moment it came in contact with air, she inflicted numerous wounds, guaranteeing that he would die.

Even though she tortured him immensely, it was as if she knew the limits beyond which he would meet his death. She stopped right beneath that line, cunningly so while giving him the greatest pain.

'Dammit! Hero, my ass! Fucking bastard pieces of shit!'

Krune was unable to even think straight, unable to even take in deep breaths as a searing pain emanated from his lungs when he did so. He was at his absolute worst condition now. His entire body was burning up like he was lit on fire. Adding onto the torture he had experienced, Krune's heart seethed with hatred.
