Chapter 15: Chapter 12: A Taste of Pain.

> In the depths of Liliana's mind.

( One - Voice 1 ) ( Two - Voice 2 ) ( Three - Voice 3 )

'I think we should just make them disappear like the ants they are. No point in bothering to torture insignificant insects…' One claims in a condescending tone.

'I think we should peel their skin off veeery slowly, then heal them, break their mind with their worst nightmares, force them to reproduce with livestock, and repeat!' Two sweetly suggests.

'Urgh, both of you hit the extremes. The middle ground is the way to go. We make them live through horror-inducing experiences within their own minds, that way it could be a second or two for us and years of torture for them.' Three sighs in a neutral tone.

'Nooo! You always do everything alone, I wanna try!' Two whines.

'Fine, but the important decisions remain in my hands.' Three reluctantly agrees.

'Yes! Finally a mission will be under the influence of the great me!' Two declares.

'It will be my turn next time.' One comments.

Seemingly reaching an agreement, the voices stopped fighting for domination.

> Outside

( POV - Cleria )

My incompetence disgusts me, after so many attempts the mistress had finally coaxed the cursed book to allow her to read it. And despite knowing this I did nothing to prevent the buffoons outside from disturbing her in her moment of enlightenment. At first, I felt dread and disappointment in myself, but now I don't regret it one bit. In fact, I'm having a hard time controlling myself as I watch my master show her sadistic side, the feeling of vulnerability I am receiving from the cursed aura she emits from her body is making it increasingly hard not to beg for punishment.

Her face holds a smile that promises pain beyond the imagination of the idiots outside, such a rare situation for anyone who interacts with the mistress directly. We all know it though, deep down the mistress holds capabilities of torture that far surpass all of us.

I do find it strange though… She wasn't this far into it before we came to this world. Normally she would never go as far as interacting with her sister in intimate ways, neither would she torture me and adopt outsiders into the tomb. I don't know whether to be pleased or worried...

No matter, I will follow my master wherever she leads me.

( POV - Liliana )

I walk up to the door as Shaltear makes way for me, her face displaying a very happy smile, Solution is trembling restlessly as her smile grows wider by the second, my sweet Cleria is looking at me fervently with an unusual smile as she rubs her thighs together, and grandpa Sebas is just observing me calmly.

But I wasn't paying attention to them, I was focused on what I'm about to make the bandits experience, my thoughts were all muddled but the moment my hand made contact with the doorknob something clicked.

I close my eyes and make a childish smile and make myself look as innocent as possible. I have chosen my method of punishment. I haven't shown anyone the depths of insanity yet, and now is as good a time as any.

I open the door and look at the revolting face of the man who disturbed my time with Monika. He smirks arrogantly as his eyes roam my body, his group of disgusting pigs are cheering as if they won the lottery completely unaware of the sheer amount of torment I'm about to unleash upon their inferior existence.

'I'll just give them a taste, for now, then I'll take them to the tomb for further… interrogation. Hehehe~' I think to myself.

"Why don't just surrender yourself sweetheart, I promise we'll be gentle with you and your friends." He hums confidently.

"What do you mean mister?" I ask as I tilt my head in mock confusion.

"Hahaha! It's going to be a fun night boys!" He shouted as they cheered again.

"Really? Can we play my favorite game?!" I excitedly reply.

"Of course! Just do as we tell you and we'll have plenty of fun," he replied as his hand slowly makes its way towards me.

I position myself at eye level with him and slowly reveal the abyss beneath my eyelids, the moment he makes eye contact all the primal fears of the unknown invade his mind.

"Hehehe~" I giggle as I watch his pupils contract in fear.

Seconds trickle by in silence, all his friends look at him in confusion.

"Hey! Get a fuckin' move on!" One of them shouts.

I place my finger, overflowing with cursed energy, on his chest as his skin begins to rot and turn black. He attempts to scream but unfortunately for him, all that came out were a few desperate grunts.

"[ Sayako's Regards ]"

( Sayakos Regards (Grade 2 Curse) - Fills the body of the opponent with a viscous black fluid, once the black fluid has filled the target, hair will start growing out of the body from wherever the user desires )

I release him from my [ Stare of Trepidation ], he frantically steps back with hitched breath and collapses on his back. He looks at his comrades with fear and pain in his eyes. His mouth opens as he attempts to speak but the only sounds that leave his mouth are inhuman gurgles of pain, his skin turns purple as he cries black tears and he chokes on an inky substance.

Black hairs begin to flow out of his eyes, mouth, and nose with a squelching noise, ripping chunks of his face-off very slowly as it stretches paper-thin. All of the other bandits gasp in horror as they watch him squirm and whimper pitifully while his face gets torn off, after 7 seconds all that's left is a faceless corpse with pitch-black hardened skin.

I look at the faces of the other insects as they draw their toothpicks and point them at me. My unsettling gaze makes them shiver in fear as they tremble like newborn lambs, black veins define themselves at the edges of my face. I can't help but smile gleefully at their unstable minds.

"[ Cursed Mist ]" I whisper as black mist gushes out of my mouth abruptly and covers all of them before they can react, except the red-nosed noble we were using as a puppet. I didn't know if we still needed them.

( Cursed Mist Grade 2 Curse - Breathe a cloud of mist that will infect the mind of the targets, the mist will show the target very realistic illusions that will physically harm them if they believe they are real. Can only be used when the targets are in fear of the caster. )

(POV - Random Bandit)

My body won't stop trembling as I hear the whispers in my ears, everywhere I look it's pitch black, I feel something looming over me, a weight on my shoulders. I hear them call out to me, voices so distorted they give me chills…

"Do you feel it?" it asks from behind me.

Cold sweat coats my back as I look behind me as fast as possible, only to see darkness.

"You're all alone…" a voice of a child comes from my right.

I turn to face the voice, only to see a small girl with black hair, eyes, and lips. Her cheeks were plump and the look on her face made me feel like she was completely pure and new to the world. A blank uncorrupted and uneducated sheet, I forget all about the darkness around us as she giggles playfully.

My heart fills with hope as I hear her sweet laughter, so I approach her and kneel face to face. Looking into her black eyes... and that's when I notice that they are completely lifeless. I feel my blood run cold as the hairs on the back of my neck stand straight. My instinct screams for me to run.

She smiles at me, her smile widening non-stop until it contorts enough to reach her ears, her top lip lifts as her face is split in half and opens to reveal endless darkness surrounded by a spiral of jagged teeth.

My mind is empty as I look into the darkness. I hear wet scuttling sounds… My eyes slowly adapt to the darkness and show me countless cockroaches in a massive pile as they scuttle around restlessly. I try to scream but no sound comes out, I try to move but my body is stiff, I look in despair as they slowly crawl out of her mouth, and leave my peripherals. I can feel them on the floor around me but I can't see what they're doing, which for some reason is more terrifying.

"Are you ready for the feast mister?" a childish voice comes from all around as my eyes tremble in horror.

Suddenly all the bugs crawl up my bare skin as they eat their way through my legs and into my body, excruciating pain overloads my mind as I scream my heart out.

Losing their strength, my legs give out, dropping me neck-deep into the pile of critters.

Childish giggles echoed all around me dripping with madness and joy as my face stretched and ripped apart, the bugs cover my eyes by crawling into them, making me feel every chunk they bite off.

Slowly losing consciousness to the sounds and sensations of my body being devoured, only one thought remained in my broken mind.

'I regret everything…'

(POV - Liliana)

The mist clears up revealing all the bandits, either devoured, ripped apart, cut into small pieces, twisted into impossible angles, and my favorite crucified with needles covering every inch of their body. Solution is standing nearby with a satisfied smile. I feel my emotions die down as two familiar mounds press on my back.

"[Soul Orb]" I cast as all their souls are dragged into the palm of my hand.

"I sometimes envy your curses, Lily," she says as she smiles and licks her lips.

I say nothing and look around at the bodies before giving a nod of satisfaction. Nothing more pleasing than giving suffering to insects who interrupt my reading… Cleria appears out of nowhere and drops a dead bandit on the floor.

"Lady Shaltear, Mistress,  I've found a nest of humans on a nearby mountain, there is a man called Brain who is capable of using martial arts, I believe he would be the perfect specimen for experimentation," she informs as she sprays her hands with some unknown liquid and wipes it with a small towel, her face showing clear disgust.

"They were bragging about how he fought on equal terms with Gazef, the head warrior of this kingdom," she added.

"Oh! I know that guy! I watched him fight an army alone, he was the reason Lord Ains was curious about martial arts." I replied with excitement.

"It seems we might have some fun after all." Shaltear replies with a smile.

"I doubt it could even compare to what I was experiencing," I complain with a small huff.
