| had made a quick stop to check up on Freya but had instructed the guards to move Emilia from the punishment
room, to the dungeon that laid beneath the house.
Walking into the cell, moments later, it was to find a hysterically crying maid and a silent Smith watching her
with hatred filled eyes.
The maid had gauze on her neck from where Freya had clawed her out and | took a second to beam with pride.
The moment the maid noticed my presence in the room, she turned toand began pleading.
“Please Master, | don’t know anything about it. | didn’t do anything, | swear. The Goddess sees my heart, | didn’t
do it.” She said in a go, crying like a child.
For a mastermind, Emilia was actually pretty weak. | had expected to cinto the room, to meet a calm,
collected criminal that would be willing to gloat about being able to cause harm. Just the way most of them
tended to do. But | was disappointed to meet this crying mess.

| stared at her figure intensely, the maid was currently on her knees and she had her hands clasped together as
though in “prayer, only that she was begging.
Her raven hair was everywhere on her face and tears and snot fought for a space on that sface. The maid
looked nothing like the confident and arrogant one that | had brought into my hall those months ago.
| walked towards the torture table that held most of the devices and picked out the item that appealed tothe
most in this
moment.
A whip with spiked edges.
The moment | turned around with the device in my hold and as she caught sight of it, her pleading increased its
tempo.
“Shut up!” | said, and she clasped her mouth shut, bathing the room in silence.
“You don’t really think that you're going to mess with my family the way that you've just done and your pathetic
crying and pleading would get you out of it, do you?” | asked and she cried even harder.
| cracked the whip in the air and | reveled in the shudder that went through her frame.
“Please Master, | didn’t do any of it. | swear, | didn’t. | know how it looks and | know that Freya might have said
sthings that pointsout as the bad person but | swear it wasn’t me. | didn’t do it.” She pleaded.
But those weren't the words | wanted to hear. So | threw the whip in her direction and the sound it made as it
cin contact with her back, mixed with the scream that she let out, deeply satisfied me.
“I didn’t do it, | swear.” She insisted and another lash made its mark.
“If you didn’t do it, then | need the names of the people who did | said, and she hesitated.
Makinglash her again. She screamed at the top of her lungs but it didn’t makestop. It felt like all the
anger that | had been feeling since | found Jessy’s frlaying unconsciously on the floor, cpouring in..
| had done a good job trying to hide my anger and control it as | attended to Jessy and comforted Freya, but now
it all seemed to pour out ofin waves. Lash after lash, till her blood was running. Lash after lash, until she lost
her voice from screaming and she was folded in on herself on the floor, shaking and crying.

“You're not going to escape this Emilia. Whether it’s now or tomorrow, | don’t care, what | do know is that you
will be spilling out all the information that | need. You poisoned Jessy, or you know who did and | will not stop
until you speak.”
“I didn’t poison Jessy Master, | swear. | would never. He didn’t teanything, it’s now that it’s all adding up. But
I didn’t do anything.” She said, her voice coming out weakly.
| paused at those words. So there was a another person involved
“Who is he? What did he do?” | asked, watching her intently.
Just as she opened her mouth to respond, a loud scream sounded above-us. | didn’t know why the scream had
happened but one thing was for sure
That scream had cFreya.
There was so much distress that had cwith that scream and that was enough to sendinto action, |
dropped the whip in my hands and ran out of the room, with Smith following directly behind me.
