Under the cloudless sky, the moonlight covered the land as if it blessed the land itself with its serene and calming light of the night.
At this time, the troll village that has finished their own preparations in order to attack and loot the mysterious castle, most of them slept soundly to ensure that they would have the energy required for tomorrow's battle.
"It is a good thing that they are all here. Otherwise, the number of workers we will get will be reduce"
Flap, flap.
Aldo jr., the gargoyle, came back after completing his mission.
"You can go back now. I am sure you would prefer to be with your creator than to be with me"
Receiving permission from Leon, Aldo jr. who was tasked by Aldo to accompany Leon went back to the castle.
"Persephone, are you hungry?"
"Yes, master"
"Do you want to eat their flesh and feast upon their blood?"
"Yes, master"
"That is good. I will give you about five of them later. Be sure to take your time and savor every bite. Because I think it will take some time until I get to give you another batch of food like them"
"Understood, master"
While Leon watched the trolls from above, times passed slowly.
[Fifth day]
The sun rose.
The trolls who were bursting with energy had all of their weapons readied and soldiers with armors.
"Lerum?"
"Leru-rum Rum"
The trolls begun to fall down, unable to control their bodies as a numbing sensation became took over their bodies.
Panick ensued as they all could not think of how it was possible for them to suddenly be paralyzed.
Clap. Clap. Clap.
As they heard a clapping sound, some of the trolls stopped panicking and tried to see the source of the sound.
"Hello there, my name is Leon Andreas. I am your instructor and you all must do as I say"
As they saw an unknown creature before them, they did not know what to do nor did they have the intelligence to think why that creature was in front of them.
"LERUM! Rum-le-re Rum!"
Instinctively, they all knew deep down that the one before them was the cause as to why they could not move their bodies.
"Persephone"
At his call, the female ghoul who was covered with troll's blood dragged two trolls that she ambushed and ate earlier.
"Since those two didn't drank from the poisoned well, they had to die. Well, in the end their lives were of some use which is good for them"
Seeing their kin dead, some of the trolls trembled in fear while some were enrage at the sight of their family and friend dead before their eyes as their corpses were stomped on by the man who smiled at their helpless state.
"Master, will you let me choose my next food?"
"Sure. That is the least I could do for troubling you"
"Not at all. If anything, I am thankful for you, master"
Persephone walked around and took an old troll.
"RUM! Le le Rum!"
The troll that Persephone chose was someone that the troll village respect. It was the troll elder, mother of the chief of trolls.
"Begin"
With a word from her creator, Persephone begun to bite off the finger of the troll.
"RUM! LERUM!"
With an ecstatic smile, Persephone continued to eat the troll, leaving her body covered with blood.
The troll's skin, organs, and bones soon went inside the ghoul's body.
[Your partner
"So this is how you make them stronger. Persephone"
The ghoul turned back to face her master with a wide smile and eyes drunken in pleasure.
"Yes, master?"
"Eat seven more. Make sure to destroy their spirits so that they would never attempt to rebel in the future"
"Understood, master"
"LERE-RUM! RUM LE LE RUM RUM!!!"
The trolls who kept on shouting for mercy were ignored as the woman continued to randomly pick a troll and eat it right in front of them.
A few hours later, the poison soon faded away.
The trolls was slowly able to move their limbs and stand up.
"RUUUUM!!!"
A troll grabbed its weapon from its waist and charged towards the man.
"How daring of you to try to harm me"
Pang!
Using the Cat o' nine tails that Leon bought from the store, he whipped the troll aside.
"Tony's class
Pang!
"Charlie's class
Leon hit the troll once more and grabbed it by the hair.
"Aldo's class
He then let go of the troll's head and placed his feet on top of its head.
"Marco's class
The trolls, afraid of Leon, did not dare to move.
"Meanwhile, there is me with the
The trolls bowed down and submitted themselves before Europe's most wanted serial killer.
"Persephone, stay here for the next ten days. Teach them how to talk and how to process the basic things. If they refuse to do so, eat them"
"But master, learning a language will take a longer time. Especially for a species like them who are not that intelligent"
"They do not need to know how to speak or write our language. You just need them to make them understand what basic words are"
"If that is the case, then I accept your order, master!"
