Dragon King's Harem Chapter 201. Cold Interrogation II
Upon my order, a guard took a bucket of water and splashed it on General Kul's face.
In an instant, his eyes snapped open as he took a deep breath.
"Ha!" General Kul gasped in shock and opened his mouth wide, trying to open the airway as best as he could.
"Good morning, General. I see you have a nice sleep after our fight,” I greeted politely. Yet my mocking tone was clear from my tone of voice. A deadly sweet smile on my lips.
Forcing himself to lift his neck and look at me, General Kul's half-opened eyes shifted from me to Evelina. Drops of water that wet his hair and face dripped onto the floor. After a quick glance, he simply lowered his head and stared at the floor again, showing his indifference to me.
"Don't waste your time... Dragon King... I won't... give you any... information," he said in a weak broken voice without lifting his head to me.
He realized his death was getting closer.
“That depends on me, General. You have no right to that," I said lightly. My smile remained on my lips.
Without waiting for an answer, I approached, grabbed his hair roughly and pulled it back, lifted his head, and forced him to look at me. Our eyes were on each other.
"Let's start the interrogation shall we?" I threatened.
Although I could see a trace of fear in his eyes, from his expression I was sure he wouldn't spill the beans that easily. This would be a long and painful interrogation for him. But even if he didn't want to say a word, I could use another method.
He replied to me with a mocking chuckle mixed with his coughs. His frustration was clear from there.
“Try it… You will… regret it…” he said in difficulty. Although it sounded weak, his challenge was evident in the tone of his voice.
"Fine." I accepted his challenge without hesitation and removed my hand from him. After retreating one step, I spoke again.
“Bring me the tools!” I ordered. This would be my first experience of torturing someone and it was a dreadful sight for me. For my human side at least.
In a rush, two guards brought a small table with a leather tablecloth. On it, there were many instruments of torture. Pliers, an iron whip that resembled a dragon's tail, an iron pole, and all kinds of torture tools, that I had only ever seen on the internet, were in front of me. It made my heart stammer in mixed emotions as my human side and dragon side fought inside me. I was a human so my human morality refused to torture him but I had to do it.
I couldn't kill him too quickly and I couldn't torture him too hard due to his severe wounds. Once he died, even Evelina couldn't bring him back to life. Besides, the ice itself was another torture. Also what was left of him was only his head and torso.
After the guards put the table, another guard immediately lit the fire on the side of the table and put some torture tools into the flame, so I could use the heat to torture him.
Swallowing my humanity side, I was just about to approach and lift my hand to take a torture tool. My eyes fell on the iron pole glowing in red in the fire. This iron pole wasn't an ordinary one. But it had Mana flow that enhanced the pain and the heat to the victim. It not only left an ordinary mark but a wound that could torture him for hours. It was the best tool to torture an earth-element creature like him.
But before I could take it, Evelina grabbed my hand. I could feel her body shaking from her touch.
I glanced at her upon her act.
“You shouldn't be here or see all of this. Go back to your room," I demanded.
But she answered me with something else.
"Please don't get your hands dirty, Your Majesty," she pleaded in a low voice. Her voice sounded like a whisper. The look in her eyes showed her plea clearly.
A long exhale came out of my mouth.
“Fine,” I said before I retreated and pointed to a guard with my gaze.
"You. Take the iron pole. You will replace me to do it," I ordered. Then I glanced at another guard.
"You. Make him stop staring at the floor. It's annoying," I said again.
The guards bowed and did my bidding.
After the guard pulled the general's hair, I started my interrogation.
"First question. What is Uraugh's plan?" I asked straight to the point. I busted their original plan so they should change their strategy. I was sure, even if there was a high chance that Uraugh changed it again, I was curious about it.
He answered me with silence. He didn't even bother to make his voice or try to lie.
I simply tilted my head, asking the other guard to start the torture.
- Shhh!
The hissing sound came once the guard put the hot iron pole on the general's skin. His scream of pain echoed. He even closed his eyes tightly and tilted his head in pain. Once the guard distanced the hot iron pole from the skin. A mark that glowed in red was left there and cracked around it as if the fire was trying to swallow his flesh. I could also see how his HP point dropped over time due to the effect.
Unable to see that sight, Evelina turned her gaze in another direction and closed her eyes in fear. Her hand gripped mine tightly.
That scene actually also disturbed my human side, but somehow, I could see everything without a flinch.
“Answer my question and I will give you an easy death,” I said, ignoring his screams.
General Kul gritted his teeth and suppressed his pain before he turned to me.
“You won't… get any… information… from me…” he said in difficulty.
A short condescending chuckle came out of my mouth.
"We'll see about that. I'm sure you will open your voice once you experience this hell loop. Soon or later,” I declared.
“My apologies…. But I don't think… my body can hold this… for too long…” he replied. A faint bitter smile on his lips as if he insulted me. Obviously, he wasn't interested in living anymore.
A wicked smirk on my lips.
"Don't worry. I'll make sure you stay alive before you tell me what I want." I glanced at Evelina. “Besides I have Eveline to heal you, remember? So we can do this as long as we want.”
Those words were enough to dim his smile. His fear was getting clearer in his eyes.
“Let's continue the interrogation,” I replied, returning my gaze to him. My wicked smile was getting wider.
