Chapter 174: Interrogation (1) (1/2)
”Wake up.”
Leonel spoke coldly, pouring a bucket of frigid water he had gotten from Pisces over the heads of the two Brazinger Clan members.
In truth, Leonel had no need to get his water from Pisces, he only did it as a show. Since he had the Black Grade Soothing Waters pool, he was much better off than those drinking normal water.
Still, he made a show of politely asking Pisces for water everyday to try and smooth her attitude out a bit. Like this, it was much easier to maintain the balance of the group and it made her feel more comfortable thinking she had a modicum of power over him.
Though, if Pisces knew that the 'precious' water she so 'graciously' bestowed to Leonel was being used in this way, it could be imagined how she would react.
The two Brazinger Clan men were startled awake.
Their first attempt was to move, but upon realizing their hands and feet were bound, a tinge of fear colored their hearts.
Leonel wasn't worried that one of their abilities could help them escape. Before he woke them up, he had the dictionary scan them. The one with the more square jaw had an auxiliary type ability that made his neurons fire faster, thus giving him greater reaction time and greater thinking speed. The one with the slightly thinner face had a vibration type ability. This one was a greater threat, but Leonel had already crafted the cuffs on his hands to be beyond his ability to vibrate out of.
After realizing that the two of them had been captured, the two clan members glared toward Leonel. But, inwardly they were feeling confused. There were others here? How was this possible?
”First, tell me your names.” Leonel asked simply.
After a while, it became obvious to Leonel that they had no intention of responding to him. But, seemingly having expected this result, he only nonchalantly nodded.
With a wave of his hand, the poisoned corpse of the bear king appeared, causing the two men to pale.
”This poison is pretty tyrannical, don't you think?” Leonel said casually.
After a few moments, he stood and pulled the thinner man away. At such a sight, the square jawed man trembled violently, the fear evident in his eyes.
”No! No! I'll tell you my name, I'll tell you my name!”
Unforunately, no matter how hard he struggled, he and Leonel still vanished, leaving the square jawed man in a sorry state. He was so scared that he directly fainted, unable to maintain his consciousness. However, he had no idea that Leonel and the thin faced man had simply gone to the Abode Setting, letting his fear stew.
”Oh, you'll tell me your name now?” Leonel asked.
”Yes! Yes! My name is Cheri!”
A weird expression coated Leonel's visage at these words. Cheri? That meant darling in French… The man sure had quite the… unique name.
”Alright then Cheri, I have a few questions to ask you, you'll answer them honestly, right?”
”Right, right!”
