Crystal walked inside his uncle's room. His uncle lived alone and was unmarried, unlike the other relatives of Crystal.
"Uncle… I… I…" Crystal began to sob and cry.
"Crystal! Be quiet! We don't know who is listening! Let's move down to the basement, where we can whisper. Did anyone follow you or know that you are here?"
"...No. I have been running away alone! I hid myself because-"
"Not here, child. Let's go down!" Paul insisted and brought the sobbing Crystal down into the basement.
But the more they walked, the angrier Crystal got. Why was this man pushing her towards the basement?
Crystal was ready. But she knew that she couldn't act ahead. Her uncle had to act and do everything to prove who he was.
Her heart grew heavy as she contained the anger and hoped that her uncle would act kindly and not destroy the image of the fun-loving uncle who would comfort her.
The rooms on the lower levels of the room were shown. It looked like a typical house and had its own Training Hall.
But then, a locked door was at the edge of the hall, and Paul was leading Crystal there.
The doors were opened, and the sobbing Crystal walked forward.
Suddenly, Paul gave Crystal a strong push that sent her flying forward.
She crashed on the ground.
CLING! CLANG!
The metal doors and locks could be heard as Paul quickly tightened the complicated locks of the room.
"Uncle?! What's going on…?"
"Crystal… Crystal… You have no idea… how relieved I am to see you." He smiled and turned around.
"All these years, I've had my eyes on your mother. But who would have thought that you would be even more beautiful? Did you know that your father was very… cautious of me? And rightly so. Oh, how I have loved to have my way with you. And then it turns out that you were actually a slut!"
"Uncle! What are you saying?! Those were lies! I have never slept with a man! Those were accusations that…"
"Bah! I know the nature of your life. You put up a weak and fragile facade to lure men. How many nobles were suddenly so attracted to you? People who lived in the capital! People whose boots I cannot even lick! Their sons would suddenly throw themselves at you! Why? Because you've acted the temptress to them! Were you not like that?!"
"Those are all lies! People have always taken advantage of my weakness! And even now, Brent plotted to take me to his-"
"His harem?! So you have met with him! Well, I could earn quite a sum if I hand you over to him! But not before I'll have my way with you!"
"Please, uncle! Do not do this! If you have any love for my father-"
"Your father?! That, oh, so perfect golden child?! I laugh at his demise! I even take part in the schemes to wrestle away his political power! There is a plot at hand; you and your family will soon be slain! I wept when you were kidnapped by those unknown powerful warriors… But now that you are here… I can finally have my way with you! Come show your uncle your love!"
"No! Please! Help! Help!"
"Scream all you want! This chamber is where I play around with girls! I've had a few of your maids in here! I will be sure to give you… a special treatment!"
The lecherous man ran forward.
STAB!
A blade struck through and stabbed deep into the thick fat of Paul.
Crystal then showed might that was unlike a girl!
It was as if Paul was in front of a grown man!
The sword dug deep, and suddenly…
KSSSSSSSH!
"AHHH!" Paul shouted.
SLASH!
Another sword slashed down the upper leg of Paul and made a deep wound.
With a strong push and the wounded leg, Paul stumbled backward and continued to scream.
"Ahhhhhh! Ahhhh!"
The sword was burning hot.
STAB!
The second sword stabbed down the other shoulder.
And finally, Crystal made a strong stomp between Paul's legs.
CRASH!
"Ahhhh… Ahhhh…" The screams lost their power as if Paul was robbed of wind.
"I am very saddened, dear uncle." Crystal sighed. But her eyes were glowing red with rage.
As the object of her wrath, Paul could see a strange pair of transparent wings that appeared behind Crystal.
"Demon…! Demon…!" Paul tried to cry.
"Me? Aren't you the one? So you had some of my maids here… Since you hate me, I'm sure those maids who were nice to me and went missing were here. Was my friend, Amisha, in these very rooms as well? Perhaps that is why she left my family, even though she had no reason to. But... what I'm interested in, is what you said... There is a plot to kill my father and family? Tell me more." Crystal held onto the sword handles.
"AHHHHHH!"
The sword grew hot and caused Paul to try to quiver.
STOMP!
Another stomp was made on Paul's big gut.
Paul tried to escape, but the two blades that stabbed through him and reached the floor had dug too deep, and Crystal somehow revealed the strength of a strong man!
"You're trying to flee? I'll show you something interesting, uncle." Crystal smiled as she yanked the two swords out.
"Ahhh! Spare me! I'm sorry! I'm…"
But as he began to beg, the two swords of Crystal vanished like magic.
And suddenly, it appeared again, with the fire burning out of it.
"I killed Arvus Brent. So what's a fat, stupid man like you to me? Tell me all about this plot that seeks to harm my family! And I will spare your life with respect to my father." Crystal answered coldly.
She then charged forward and stabbed the two swords on the fat thighs of Paul.
STAB! STAB!
The burning blades sank deep.
"AHHHH! AHHH! STOP! I'LL TELL YOU EVERYTHING!"
The flames disappeared.
"If you stop talking, the flames will cook you, and I will make sure you spend the rest of your life limping over your overcooked mushroom!" Crystal shouted.
"It's… part of a plan! To take over Merchant's Rest! Many rich families and powerful political leaders in this city want to allow illegal trade!"
