Chapter 34: Masks of Lies 2

Athon gulped as Mikael accused him of touching the body of Mivi. he looked around the place, all of them frowned, even his friend, Vidmal.

"I-"

Mikael grabbed his face, and smiled strangely at him. His eyes dulled for a second, and his face changed to an expression of a puppy being beaten by its master.

"I- I'm sorry…" he broke down, crying, looking at the ground below him. "I- I was drunk… A-And I just couldn't help it… s-she looks so beautiful… h-her crushed neck, t-the scratch marks…"

"Fuck." Mikael cursed as he punched him in the face with his steel arm. The man stumbled to the back as Mikael hit him, still tied to the chair.

Mikael jumped over the chair, and continued to beat the man repeatedly with this steel arm, until his fist full of blood.

"Mikael, that's enough." someone suddenly said. Mikael turned around, and saw Ardan, his expression radiating coldness, his sleeves rolled back. "Can you pull a confession from the other one?"

Mikael looked at him calmly, before nodding. Mikael walked to Ivelm, and stared at his lecherous eyes. Ivelm's eyes turned dull, but the man quickly shook his head, as if trying to stay awake.

"Could you please tell me if you kill her?" questioned Mikael coldly.

"I- I didn't…" said Ivelm, but he looked in pain when he said that.

"Are you sure?" questioned Mikael again.

"I–" Ivelm shook his head again, trying to break free of the influence. "FUUUCKK! I DID OKAY!? A FUCKING SPOILED KOVIRI PRINCESS LIKE HER DOESN'T DESERVE TO TO LIVE! NOT WHILE THOUSANDS ARE SUFFERING IN MY HOME!"

Mikael punched his face roughly, making him drop to the ground, laughing, as he was still in the influence of alcohol. "You should see her face…" He sneered, spitting blood. "When I choked her… shoved my cock up her pu–"

Mikael kicked his face roughly, hitting the wall behind him. "Great. A child rapist, and a necrophiliac who likes sloppy seconds…" Mikael turned to the captain, and commented. "Quite a crew you have here, captain."

Captain sighed. "Sorry… I'll take responsibilities about this–"

"It's not your fault captain." suddenly said Ardan, walking to the two trash in front of him. His sleeves were already rolled back, and he was staring at the two coldly. His wife followed him, standing beside him with hateful eyes. "Captain, you have some… tools, I could use?"

The captain and Mikael were surprised. "Tools?"

"You know… tongs, knives… preferably the 'unclean' ones…"

"Ardan, are you sure about this?" Mikael questioned in worry.

Ardan just smiled at him. "We merchants used different masks in front of other people, Mikael. You are a good man, we used a good mask. To my family, to Carder, to… Mivi… we used a good mask… But to enemies…"

Ardan just stared at the two men coldly, he was truly a different man now. "We used a… different… kind of mask."

Mikael knows what it means, and sighed.

"Captain, could you please tie Vidmal too?" said Evre suddenly.

"W-What?!" Vidmal was suddenly scared. "I- I didn't do nothin'!"

Captain just sighed once again. He walked towards Vidmal, who cowered in the corner as the captain approached, and the captain quickly tied him up to the chair, ignoring his plea.

"W-What did I do, miss?!" shrieked Vidmal desperately, trying to break free. "I- I didn't touch your daughter!"

Evre just punched Vidmal roughly, which was surprising, as Mikael didn't know she could do that. Vidmal coughed up blood, trying to breathe.

"A coward." scoffed Evre hatefully. "If you just told the captain about my daughter's death, her body wouldn't have been defiled by this… freak, right here."

"I-I'm sorry miss! What was I supposed to do?! I could lose my life wrongfully if I told the captain!"

"Well, you're about to lose your life right now," said Evre coldly. "We are just going to do it really, really, slowly…"

Vidmal gulped and his face paled as he heard that, the smell of urine spread towards the room, as he had pissed himself.

"Captain? Do you have it?" questioned Ardan.

"Sorry, don't have one of those…" murmured the captain.

Ardan then turned to Mikael. "Mikael?"

Mikael just sighed. He raised his right arm, and a small blade sprung from above the wrist. He grabbed the small blade, and detached it, before giving it to Ardan. "Just don't break it, quite rare materials…"

"Will do." nodded Ardan as he took the blade. "Now, could you please… get out of the room?"

"Sure." nodded Mikael and the captain.

"Please make sure Carder doesn't go to this place," said Evre. "Let him sleep for a little more."

Mikael just smiled. "Will do."

Mikael and the captain then exited the room, opening the door with a key. As they exited the room, they could already hear the pleading sounds of men inside, with a couple of insults from Ivelm here and there. But soon enough, bad becomes worse.

Shrieks of pain echoed throughout the hall near the place, even Ivelm was pleading now. The captain couldn't help but become dizzy as he heard those screams.

"You think the other kid would hear it?" questioned the captain to Mikael.

"Let's just watch out for him…" Mikael answered as the shrieks of pain continued. What are they doing inside? Skinning them alive?

—

Turns out, they did just that…

A couple hours later, Mikael and the captain entered the room. Evre cried in the corner, while Ardan was still standing in front of the 'corpses' of the three men, a small blade in his hand, all bloodied. His hands are deep red, blood drips from his chin, and he has a cold look on his face.

"Bloody hell…" the captain turned around and threw up, while Mikael didn't quite care about the gore.

He walked towards Ardan, and stood beside him.

Vidmal was practically unrecognizable… his face all torn up, his legs deskined, his nails everywhere.

Athon's small cock was literally in his mouth, his hair has been cut up, his fingers are missing, and his chest is open.

Ivelm was the worst. His skin has literally separated from his body, but his body position was still there, like a statue of flesh and blood, his cock was nowhere to be seen, but Mikael could guess where it was.

Ardan then turned to Mikael once again, and gave him his bloody small blade. "Like I said. Masks."

Ardan then walked up to his wife, and the two carried their daughter's body out of the place, intending to clean it.

"Captain…" said Mikael. "Who's going to clean it?

"I'll return your voyage fee if you clean it…" said the captain, trying not to throw up again.

"I can just throw it to the sea, right?"

"Do whatever you want."
