Chapter 484 Loyalty
Somewhere in a hidden base, a crazed looking man was currently looking at a haggard middle-aged prisoner in fury.
All that one could hear, were the sounds of several whips lashing out and the faint cries of the prisoner as well.
The entire room smelled like blood, and that the stony floors just below the prisoner.... was also dyed reddish-black from all the dried up from the woman's wounds.
The crazed man looked at the woman silently, as if watching a prey out in the wild.
Why won't she talk?
More than 7 months have gone by since he had captured the woman.... and up to now, she never defeated her master.
What sort of stupid loyalty was this?
At first, he had decided night to be too rough with her, since he needed her in one piece for his grand plan.
But as time went by, the more stubborn the woman was, the more furious he became.
And so with time, he slowly increased the torture dished out to her daily.
The woman's back had more than 400 lash whips on it, which now looked like a gruesome work of art that could make one shiver in fear.
Those in charge of whipping her had never even bothered to wipe the blood off her body.
The whip lines had all formed very thick black lines of old dry blood.
And that wasn't all!
Of course, the woman had also been subjected to punches in her belly and all over her body too.
And even her face had been punched extremely hard, as she ended up losing 3 teeth in the process.
The woman's eyelids were so swollen and bluish-black, that she struggled underneath all her sweat just to open them.
Her mouth, jaws and cheekbones also looked bad as well, as she found talking or even swallowing food a very tedious task to do.
The crazed looking man looked at the middle-aged woman angrily.
Even after all of this, why wouldn't she just give up on her master and save herself?
He couldn't help but feel slightly envious when seeing such loyalty.
Dammit!
That bastard always had the best of everything.
.
'Whip!'
'Ugggghhhhhh....'
'Whip!'
'Ugggghhhhhh....'
'Whip!'
'Ugggghhhhhh....'
The lady let out several shrill cries whenever the whip touched her skin.
But even though she felt true agony, she continued to bite her lips, in attempts to not cry out loudly.
The crazed man looked at her with a hint of admiration.
If she could work for him instead of that Scoundrel, then wouldn't it be better?
He looked at her as if looking at a treasure.
Hehehe.... he couldn't help but thank the bastard for training such a person for him to use.
'Whip!'
'Ugggghhhhhh....'
"Stop!"
"Yes, master!" Said the men torturing the woman.
The crazed looking man looked at the woman intently, before moving close to her and stooping down.... so as to be face to face with her.
"Look at you!
Do you think that he will save you?
Open your eyes and look around!!
He has clearly abandoned you, so why are you still putting up a front?
Don't forget, you are just his nanny and nothing else.
So why would he care enough to risk his life in saving you?
Like I said, if you tell me his secret base..... as well as how many men he has under his command, then I'll promise to let you go free.
This is your last chance!
So what will it be?"
Hearing what the man had said, the woman's body trembled even more.... and she slowly lifted her head steadily.
Seeing the woman look at him as if she was considering it, the man couldn't help but smile a little more confidently.
.
This was the first time that the woman seemed to be considering his words.
Usually, she would just act like he was invisible, or even lift her middle finger at him numerous times.
But this time, she looked at him and pondered silently.
Sure enough, what he said had probably affected her.
Who wouldn't feel abandoned and betrayed if they had been tortured all this time?
If it were him, he would even have some sort of resentment towards his master.
"I'm glad that you've finally thought it through.
Because if you stick with me, I'll not only let you go.... but I'll also take you under my wing too.
So, I ask you again..... what will it be?"
Just as the man finished talking, the woman gathered all the blood in her mouth and spat on the man's face.
--silence--
The entire room was dead quiet, as the guards looked at their master silently.
The man wiped his face clean first, before looking at the bold woman with a cold smile on his face.
'Bamm!
The man punched the woman in the stomach while looking at her in disgust.
How dare she turn down his proposal?
Since she wanted to play, then he would naturally fulfill her wishes.
"You three... from tomorrow, increase her whip strokes by a hundred..... and burn her left hand as well.
In addition to that, from tomorrow night..... you three can play with her for as long as you want."
"Thank you, master!"
Hearing this, the woman's heart turned ice-cold, as she knew what the man meant by having his men play with her.
Her body trembled slightly, as she looked at the man with pure rage.
vagabond!
The man on the other hand, unhurriedly left the dungeon and didn't even bother looking back at her.
He was no longer going to be gentle with her.
From now on, she would be beaten and treated like a mere harlot.
And if her master didn't come to take her, then he would kill her and throw her remains to the fishes.
.
Stepping out of the secret dungeon, Slytherin Cord was immediately greeted with 2 of his most trusted aides.
"Master.... we've checked the perimeters as per usual.
And so far, there are still no enemies at sight."
But master, will he really come?"
"Why do you ask?"
"Master... that's because every day for the past 7 months, we have been checking the perimeters at least 2 times a day.
And so far, there is still no sign of him or his men."
"_"
Slytherin and his aides made their way towards the ground floor while continuing their conversation.
And soon... someone ran towards them hastily.
"Master.... they're here."
