True King's Ecstasy

Chapter 293 Tournament XXIII - God-Given Gift

"Just as I thought, looks like this strange power comes from the Union, and that's why they are so secretive about it," Velian muttered and looked at Hannah asking her to continue her confession.

"As the winner, I was blindfolded and taken into a strange room and that's where they fed me something disgusting, a black liquid that looked slimy," Just remembering it she felt like puking, but she knew inside her body still that thing is lingering.

"So that liquid is the one which gave you power?"

Hearing his question, Hannah nodded her head and continued.

"My whole body was changed, more like my whole race changed, I started feeling light and powerful and wings started coming out of my back, I also got a tail,"

She said while looking at her back, which was destroyed by Naomi and Velian. Her tail looked like a gecko's tail that got scared, as half of it was nowhere to be seen.

"it had consequences, I couldn't eat normal food, I had to rely on the semen of men to feed me, and for some reason, it felt really good, even though I used to despise men,"

Her words had a deeper meaning, as she tried to emphasise the part where she hate men because she wanted Velian to know that he was the reason why everything in her life went wrong.

"Even this body, I killed an innocent beautiful looking girl and stole her essence to make this body, so you won't suspect anything," Hannah said making Juno's face distorted in disgust.

"So, after getting your power, you came here to take your revenge? But isn't it impossible that they would give something to you without expecting anything in return?" Delviny asked as she knew things cannot be that simple.

"..."

"What did they want from you?" Velian pressed his finger on her forehead and questioned, making her sweat profusely.

"I don't know, but the woman who gave me this said, that I have to fight with other power holders and cause chaos in the land, if I want to repay my debt, no I'm wrong-"

"She didn't say if, she said I must fight because even If I try to ignore they would come finding me, that's why it's called a competition,"

Velian and both girls sighed as they heard the familiar word, and now it is confirmed to them that Andriya and Hannah both had the same source of power and it really alarmed them, as there might be more people hiring in the kingdom that had the same power.

"We need to find a way to deal with this quickly, so-" Velian said and looked at Hannah.

"I will be doing everything thanks to you, you truly are a good given gift to us, before my sister's match, I will find a solution to this power using you," He said and looked at Hannah like she was some kind of an object waiting to be examined.

"Now, let's see how much you can endure, I need to find out about your every part and how to defeat others with the same power as you," Velian said and released the flame again and tortured her without stopping.

As Velian watched Hannah writhe in pain, he couldn't help but feel a sense of satisfaction. She had been the cause of so much chaos and destruction in the kingdom, and it was about time she paid for her crimes.

"I'll ask you one more time, Hannah," Velian said, his voice cold and menacing. "What else do you know about competition and your power?"

Hannah's eyes were glazed over, her body shaking from the relentless torture. "I...I don't know," she gasped out. "Please, stop...I've told you everything."

Velian sneered at her. "I don't believe you. But that's alright. We have other ways of making you talk, in the first place we had no reason to show you any mercy."

"I might have been wrong to destroy your family, and I won't ask for forgiveness because I don't regret what I did, but I will say this, I never meant to harm you personally until you wounded, my girl,"

Delviny and Juno looked on, their expressions unreadable. Velian had been their kind and forgiving man for years, but they couldn't deny that his methods were becoming more and more extreme and they didn't even feel like complaining because they knew showing mercy to your enemy is something only a fool would do.

But at the same time, all three of them knew, they shouldn't let Sariya and Elda know about Hannah's real identity.

But their worst fear came true, as they heard the familiar voice of a woman behind them.

"Velian, this isn't right," Sariya said, her voice low. "We can't just keep torturing her like this. It's inhumane, why some you leave it to others, you don't have to get your hands dirty,"

Velian rounded on her, his eyes flashing with doubt. He didn't know whether she knew Hannah's real identity, but Velian wanted to knock some sense into both overly kind Sariya and Elda.

"Do you know how many innocent lives she's destroyed? How many families has she torn apart? She deserves every bit of pain she's getting. Most of all she injured one of our own family,"

Elda stepped forward, placing a hand on Velian's shoulder. "We understand that, but we need to do this the right way. We can't just ignore the laws of our land and resort to these kinds of methods."

Her voice was shaking because of how scared she was, but Velian couldn't help but sigh hearing their words.

He shrugged her off, his attention back on Hannah. "You heard them, Hannah. They want to do things the 'right' way. But I have no such qualms."

And with that, he turned and strode out of the room after asking Elda and Sariya to follow him, leaving Hannah to the mercy of the mages he had summoned and in the care of Juno and Delviny. They were all too eager to follow his orders, their faces twisted in glee as they experimented with an experiment on the weakened woman hoping they would get some result.
