Chapter 1
I groaned, and the blood dripping out from my wounds were making me sick. I've been in the pit of hell for about three days already, and in those days, almost made go crazy. Not just the torture they did to me but everything. All I can see here, wherever I look at is fucking hell!
"Just kill me."
"We can't kill you." Said the huge ugly man holding the tool he just pierced to my body. "We can't kill you until you tell us about your boss." I am not lying. He has the teeth of an orc, and he looks huge more than those bodybuilders at the gym. He's definitely an orc.
I just smirked and looked at the ceiling. So my boss is where they are after? Fucking ridiculous rascals. They kidnapped me while I was on my duty and didn't even talk about what they wanted from me. They just straight punch, kick, whip, and electrified me.
"Aaagh!" I yelled out of pain when he twisted the knife on my thigh. Fucking monster!
"Your boss had a huge debt from my boss, and we won't stop until we took her down." His rough and low voice made me trembled as he laughed.
"Why won't you just go to her location and kidnap her like the way you did to me!" I glared at him.
"Boss orders." Was all he said and continued to torture me for an hour straight.
My body is full of marks, bruises, and wounds. My clothes are now covered with my blood and sweat, and I feel shit. I'm hungry, my throat dry, and I'm tired. I just want to end this fucked-up life. The orc suddenly left without a word, leaving the door open, but I didn't even think to find a way to escape. I already did that the other day, and I died. They tortured me five hours straight that I passed out three times.
The prison is made with thick concrete walls and a cell gate that is well built and sturdy than the prison gates on Earth. There’s hay that serves as my bed, but I didn’t get the chance to use it because they tied me in this chair the moment I was thrown here. The people here in this shithole are not humans. Even the other prisoners here, and they're all acting crazy because they did become crazy after being imprisoned here. Orcs, goblins, and other creatures are here, and I came to a realization that maybe, just maybe, I'm the only human here—alive.
"You still don't want to talk?"
I opened my eyes, and the first thing I saw was that a woman elf was standing in front of me. She has a mischievous grin that is making me puke. The shackles on her neck made a sound when she leaned forward. One wrong move and her clothes will be torn off. And the way the other orcs are eyeing on her, I guess she's a prostitute here.
"Go away. Your breath stinks."
The elf frowned and scowled. She turned around and started to speak in her language to the other elves.
"We want to know all the information about your boss, boy. So better talk, or else we'll put a parasite into your body." The elf glared at me, and the other elf placed a jar on the table, and there it was, the parasite that she's talking about. It looks like a centipede, but smaller, and its legs are color red with spots of black. “You don’t want this thing to grow inside your body until it outgrows you, do you?”
Disgusting.
"I want to know your boss first." I said, but they only laughed. "What? Is your boss the one who put you in this prison, yes? I bet your boss put an effort into making those necklaces." I chuckled, looking to the shackles on her neck.
They all went silent, and all eyes were on me. All of them are telling me that they want to kill me in an instant, but they're trying themselves not to.
The elf grabbed my jaw and held it with force. Her nails were digging into my skin. "You're pissing me off."
"Thank you." I smiled.
"You won't get a chance to meet her. A human like you doesn't have the right to talk with her." The other elf said.
"And I'm sure you're not worthy for her either. With those torture you did to me because you're desperate to make me confess, I can say your boss is getting pissed right now, and your lives are on edge." I said back.
I heard the orcs growled, and the elves were yelling me to shut up, but I just laughed at them. So I was right.
"Silence, human. You and that bitch are making my blood boil." She said as she let go.
"Oh, so now you're talking shit to your boss. Seriously, what kind of employee are you?"
"Take back what you said, elf. I will not hesitate to kill you if you badmouth our boss again." The orc warned.
The elf's expression suddenly changed, darkened when I mentioned her boss, and she just rolled her eyes and did not listen to theme yapping. I noticed that all of them respected their boss except for her, and I wonder why.
"That bitch didn't do anything but to spend money to make her look good, and I hate that she had him first." She whispered. Does she know I'm here?
"Why you're so mad every time she was mentioned?" The other elf asked. "Did you perhaps like this human or until now you're still dreaming of taking the boss' place?"
Oh?
She stomped her feet towards her and slapped her cheek hard. I whistled. That was a show. The other elf whimpered as she touched the cheek where she was slapped. I blinked when I saw the elf's face. It immediately turned red and started to decay like it was poured with acid. Perhaps the elf has poison on her hands? But my skin is fine when she touched my face.
With the days that I stayed here, I'm not surprise anymore with the 'powers' they've been showing.
"You know you don't have to do that unless your sister is telling the truth." I said.
"Just tell me what you want!" She yelled, stomping towards me and holding my collar. I looked up at her, our nose almost met, and I put up a smirk. "Stop with that arrogant look and just tell me."
"Tell your boss to get her sexy ass up here and make me her boytoy. It will be my pleasure if she will fuck me here and suck me dry. Who knows, I might tell her everything I know." I whispered. My smirk doesn't leave my face.
She pushed me back to my seat and screamed, putting her anger on the elf she had just slapped. I sighed as I looked at the poor girl she's beating up. I just want to hit some nerves. Seems like I poke all seven trillion of them. At this rate, the poor girl will going to die. She's literally insane.
"It's a good idea, elf. Maybe the boss will make him talk." The orc suggest. The elf didn't listen and continued to beat the other elf. The orc just sighed and silently ordered his men while he stayed here.
"Stop it, already. The chief will get mad at you if he sees you." The male-elf stepped up, pulling the poor girl away from her.
He’s taller than the rest of the elves, a few inches taller than me. Almost standing with the shoulder of the orc. He’s white eyebrows frowned as he glared at her and hissed.
"That damn human is at fault here!"
"Eh? Why me? I didn't tell you to hurt that poor elf! You just slapped the shit out of her with that magical hand of yours." I defended myself.
"Shut up! You really told me that you want to be that bitch's boytoy! Why would I let that happen?" She yelled again.
"Lower your voice, woman." I groaned. "I just want to know that boss of yours."
"I'll kill that bitch before she'll set her eyes on you." She groaned.
"What is your problem, and you don't want him to see our boss?" The male-elf sighed and crossed his arms. "It will really be a good chance to let them meet. We’ll get clues and information."
"This human is mine." She said and pointed her finger at me. "And I will kill that bitch after on what she did to me."
The orcs and the other elves sighed at her statement. I really don't know what her point here, but I can say she's the wrong here. The other elf she just beat up, who's now hiding behind the orc, is now looking at her with disbelief.
"It's your decision to become one of her dezkals, and now you're acting like she forced you into slavery."
"But that's what she did to me!"
"Because you're not following rules. You're fooling around with the prisoners and guards here, going against her orders many times and acting like you're on her level. That's why she's punishing you." The male-elf said, deadpanned.
She didn't respond, but she's still fuming mad. I remained silent as I watched them arguing in front of me. It feels like I'm watching a family drama, and she's the rebellious daughter teenager. Suddenly, she looked back at me and frowned, like she's thinking about what she's supposed to do,
"If it's not just about your blood, I already killed you!" She said out of spite.
"What?" The orc asked in confusion. "What blood are you talking about, elf?"
"Once I fuck him and get his blood, I will use it to gain followers from the vampires, and I will kill that bitch." She yapped, a smug on her face showed.
"I heard enough." Someone's voice echoed the whole dungeon, and they all suddenly flinched.
The walls began to shake like there's an earthquake. The things are falling from the impact, but the chair I was bound with stayed glued on the floor. Instead of panicking or running out of here, they kneeled with one knee and put their heads down. That just made me confused. What the fuck? I saw the elf cursed under her breath, and the others stayed on their positions, sweating bullets. The shaking eventually stopped after a minute of them kneeling, and the whole prison became awfully silent. I then heard someone outside, walking through the hallway as the heels were stomping on the ground, the only noise you could hear.
"She's here." The elf said.
I gulped and looked outside of the metal bars. The inmates on the other cell are now doing the same thing these people here. Oh, she's finally here. I can feel her getting close here. The sounds of her heels are getting louder, and my throat just became dry. Her presence alone made the whole room shake. She's no human and no ordinary boss I expected to be.
"Close your eyes, human. You don't want to see her eyes, if you’re afraid of losing your mind." The elf said, but I didn't follow.
My eyes locked on the mysterious woman walking through the hallway and making her way through the cell gate. I stared at her, and my jaw lightly hung. She looks foreign. My guts are telling me she's dangerous, but I can't help but stare and observe her more. She’s the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen in my life. Her skin is purple hue, and it fits with her black unusual clothing that has a similar style with Gothic dresses that I saw people wearing on Halloween. Her long, pointy ears had gold piercings on it, and her long white hair that looked like she just straightened it with iron.
She went inside the cell, walked past through them as if she’s floating, and stopped right in front of me. I blinked as I felt my heart racing. Looking closely at her, I noticed her eyes were ice blue and emerald. What I'm gonna do?
"Boss, he's that woman's secretary for two years." The orc said. "And he's not saying anything since we first put him here."
"Did you use all these things to him?" Their boss asked, her voice solemn and cold as she stared at the torturing tools on the floor.
"Yes, boss."
"Except the parasite."
She glanced back at me, and her eyes squinted for a second. Honestly, I can't tell what she's thinking. She's not showing much expressions than the others, and I don't know if she's bored or annoyed. She just stood there, chest puffed up and looked at me like I'm some dirt or something.
"Talk." She demanded.
Fuck.
