Chapter 279 - Daily life (4) (1/2)
”Please just kill me already!”
”Nah~ not until you tell me what you know of the NNE upper power structure”
Mars was currently integrating one of the spies from the NNE that had caused disorder in his city during and after the failed invasion, as to how he was interrogating him, it was simple
”I think he's thirsty, give him some more water”
”No please no more---!”
”Then are you ready to talk?”
He was waterboarding him, it was a rather simple method really all that was needed was a bucket of water, a rag or some kind of cloth and a bench
'I remember when I was waterboarded during training... how nostalgic...'
”Yes I'll talk, I'll talk just please no more water!”
”Then I'll entrust the rest of the work to you two”
””Yes lord””
Mars spoke to his two assistants before he got up from his chair and left the small cell behind as he stretched before he followed the hallway back up towards the sunlight, but he was let down when he arrived as the sun had long since gone down and only the vast night sky greeted him
'Oh well, let's get some food and then go to bed...'
Mars headed towards the kitchen where he was surprised to find Elsa waiting for him or rather she was sitting on a chair dozing off, Mars gave a smile and sneaked over before he began poking her ears ever so softly until eventually she woke up or atleast it looked like she did, her eyes where open but she was not quite awake yet
”Mars~”
Speaking in a slightly slurred voice Elsa reached out with her arms and hugged him close for a few moments until she awoke for real and blushed deeply when she realized what she just had done
”Umm... Mars it's just that---”
”It's fine, I love you too”
ELsa blushed even deeper and remained silent but still slightly tightened her grip on Mars before she spoke
”Umm... Mars, are you hungry?”
”Yeah that's why I am here”
”Then let me make you something”
Mars watched and eventually helped out as Elsa made him some food, after eating/ flirting with Elsa they both went to bed and quickly fell asleep...
Over the next few days Mars interrogated the rest of the spies before he had them executed in a grad fashion on the main square
'Just like the ol' days on earth'
After that he closed the event with a speech about how the city of Ular would never be shaken by outsiders as long as they were as united as they were now, the speech ended with cheers from the crowds and Mars took his leave as the festivities started (because apparently a good execution was nothing if not for the grand feast that followed).
Back at the office Mars got to work with signing doc.u.ments and reading reports until he was interpreted by Elsa that walked in to his office, Mars looked at her blankly for a few moments before he stood up and walked over to her and gave her a hug
”Elsa... I love you”
”Eh..? Mars what's wrong?”
”You're pregnant too, I just could not see it yesterday, but now I definitely do”
Elsa gave a happy smile, but didn't seem too surprised before she but a hand on her still completely flat stomach and spoke
”I knew it... Somehow I just did”
Mars gave a smile and spoke jokenly
”Maybe it's you womanly sense?”
”I wonder?”
Elsa gave a giggle and embraced Mars tightly, the two of them shared a happy few moments before they were interrupted by a knock on the door to Mars' office, Mars still hugging Elsa called out
”Come in”
Jane walked in and saw Mars and Esla flirting
”Excuse me... I am sorry to interrupt lord Mars but the diplomat from the NNE is here now”
”I see... Well, sorry Elsa”
”I don't mind Mars, we can talk afterwards”
”Sure”
