Chapter 58 - Silly Torture, Lovely Song, and Lily (1/2)

”Tell us, Mellie,” the girl speaking had tried it all from the manual. Every torture method allowed for young schoolers without getting too far but at the same time, creating fear for the innocent minds of the young boys and girls of the Academy. ”Talk!”

The sound of a whip resonated in the cave. However, no one knew where the whip had come from.​​

”Boss, did you bring a whip?”

”Ye… ye… yes!” the voice of the girl sounded terrified. She didn't bring a whip but the sound effect of a whip. She glared at the one on the back for making the noise too high. It was supposed to sound soft at first, then some shouts from people getting tortured should come out, and then the whips and then the begging noises from the girls hiding in the back.

”Talk Mellie, or you will suffer the same of those poor souls!”

The girl's voice was anxious and trembling. She never thought of recurring to such dirty methods for a piece of information, but she had to. The life of her club depended on it, but more than anything, the reputation and the prize of the contest for the next festival.

”I will not say a word,” Mellie said with an honorable voice but with eyes full of boredom.

The silly girls thought that they can torture a master of the Darkness, an Evil Imp with thousands of years in the business of inflicting cruel suffering to innocent souls. What a joke!

”Are you telling us now?!”

They shouted as the special effects distorted their voices. They hoped to see a terrified Mellie about to vomit and become pale, but they were met with the silly boy eating a cookie passively.

”Tie him to the chair!”

They sat him on a chair and took him to the top of the tower, threatening to push him from that height if he didn't talk.

However, the same little boy had closed his eyes and when the little girls were carrying him with effort through those stairs, he fell asleep. So soundly that he was even snoring.

”You!”

The leader girl was about to lose it.

”Throw him cold water!”

The water somehow vaporized in front of them.

”Lock him in the darkroom!”

He snored harder.

”Tie his arms and legs and pull them!”

The girls gasped in shock by the awful order.

”Not too hard, just a little,” the girl was also stunned by her words.

However, Mellie just smiled and laughed out loud.

”Tickle him!”

The group of girls now have a mischievous sight in their eyes. The opportunity they had been waiting for from the moment they abducted him had arrived. How many times had they not fantasized to touch the delicate and soft skin of one of the top ten most handsome boys in the Academy?

Now they will have their fill.

”Wait!”

”I will talk,” he sighed in helplessness, but he was also thinking of a way to make time for the rescue party to come.

”Then tell us the lyrics!”

He sighed again… ”Why do you want to know them?”

”To win,” they evidently responded.

”Is that all that matters in your life? Win?”

”Yes,” they evidently responded again not understanding the little boy.

”Why?”

”Why not,” they again responded with indifferent faces.

”Are you not looking for more?”

”No,” at least not right now.

”Why?”

”Why would you care, now give us the lyrics, or every part of your body will feel our fingers tickling your skin. Your death will be for extremely happiness, that they may think that you inherited an overdose of Wizard Druon's cure!”

”…” Mellie was now in a complicated state, not in his entire life, he had met with such shameless girls. 'I may have wronged my target,' he thought. He had underestimated a school prize in the hearts of the people. A memory of such a victory in the younger stages of life could be stronger than any other satisfaction. Now he understood.

”I will tell,” he said, ”though, I will warn you.”
