Chapter 433: Assisting the Five Otherworlds (5) (1/2)
By utilizing my Energy Manipulation, the path behind this last white-robed Transcendent became blocked by a thick Energy Screen.
Not only that, but she was also being held by two molded Energy Constructs in the shape of a hand at her feet.
Well, the Energy Screen was legit but those molded Energy hands holding her in place was as brittle as thin glass. If she resisted strongly, those would break. However, she still wouldn't be able to escape.
I kept Ele's reminder to me in mind. My Energy Control was my greatest strength. However, even at this moment, my Energy Molding capabilities were lower than most of my girls who excelled at it.
”N-no… Spare me. We were only ordered to take care of an opened Portal.” The female white-robed Transcendent mustered some strength in her voice to beg for her life.
Although there's still a distance between us, I could already see the rising despair and terror welling up in her eyes. A little nudge and she would bawl out her eyes.
Somewhat unbecoming of an arrogant Transcendent just earlier.
”Really? Who ordered you?”
It's easy to guess, I know.
Nonetheless, it was a necessary thing to ask.
”Who else? The Dark Wizards!” The female white-robed Transcendent gasped for her breath as she held onto her throat.
It was faint but I clearly felt the wisp of a malicious Dark Energy exploding from where she was holding at the moment.
She wanted to groan in pain. However, she gulped down his saliva instead resulting in her having a coughing fit where she started spitting out black blood.
Are they cursed by them or was this just one of the restrictions in place?
In any case, it's still not enough to show empathy to them. But it wouldn't hurt to extract information from them.
”I see. What are these Dark Wizards? Are they the ones wielding this kind of energy?”
I opened my palm and I conjured a ball of Dark Energy on it.
As soon as the white-robed Transcendent saw it, her eyes widened before she started shivering as her knees gave up on her.
”Huh? H-how? You're one of them!”
”Not quite. I'm here to hunt them down, you see. Given that you're only following that golden-robed guy's orders. I can be lenient to your remaining comrades as long as I find your answers satisfactory… Ah. Of course and that includes you. As long as you provided us the necessary information we needed.”
Those Dark Wizards she's talking about were already holding their necks and she's unaware of it.
Perhaps, by the end of this interrogation, she would be dead at this spot…
Well, they brought it upon themselves. Their deaths wouldn't divert our objectives in this world.
”I… I understand! I'll answer with all my knowledge!”
As if she saw a ray of hope to get out of this hopeless situation, the female white-robed Transcendent tried to grasp my hand, as if looking at her savior.
Well, she failed as I instantly moved back.
