Novel Full 697 Withering Angelic Conviction
Of course, it was also possible that the Goddess had the means to know about his thoughts. That was why he wanted to confirm from their mouths.
“…”
“…”
Lucida calmly closed her eyes. Aljea glared back at Lawrend before unwillingly closing her eyes. The two of them didn’t want to reveal anything to him.
“So the two of you want to die? Is that it?” Lawrend calmly asked.
“…”
“…”
The two didn’t budge at his attempt to sway their conviction.
“Fine. I will kill you two.”
“Wait!” Aljea shouted and opened her eyes.
Lucida opened her eyes widely and stared at Aljea in anger.
“Aljea, you’re the Goddess’ angel!”
“No. I won’t reveal it to him. I simply wanted to ask what kind of magic you used to break the Heaven’s Cage?” Aljea sincerely asked.
It was a question she wanted to be answered before she died. It would allow her heart to rest in peace.
“If you aren’t going to answer my question, I won’t answer yours.”
Lawrend didn’t want to answer her question.
“…”
Aljea sighed and closed her eyes. Lucida calmed down and closed her eyes again. The two angels peacefully awaited their deaths.
“Master, do you want me to spill their blood for you?” Aezel offered.
Her darkness mana oozed around her, making her look like a goddess of death.
“No. I will kill them myself.”
Lawrend continued sucking the two angels’ mana. He used it to recover the light mana he lost during their fight. Lucida and Aljea felt their bodies become weaker and weaker.
The two angels felt the slow coming of death. It seemed peaceful at first, but the days quickly passed. Lawrend’s other maids had come up here and saw the two angels slowly getting their manas sucked.
They left soon after as they had full trust in Aezel, Elena, and Ember.
The longer it took, the greater the faint anxiety grew within Aljea’s heart. She was the hot-tempered one between the two of them. Her heart slowly constricted as she felt this was torture for her.
“What? Feeling anxious?” Lawrend teased.
He sensed her heartbeat increase since he was holding her neck.
“…”
Aljea resisted the urge to reply and kept her eyes closed.
Lawrend faintly smiled and continued draining their manas. He wanted them to experience the feeling of death grasping their neck but slowly slicing one layer of their skin at a time.
Lucida had already fully accepted her death. She didn’t become anxious. Everything was for the Goddess, including her life.
A few more days later and Lawrend brought them down to the Grand Mage level. They wouldn’t be able to exert Earth Mage power no matter how hard they tried.
“Call Ramiela over. I want her to take these two to her dungeon. I will interrogate them myself,” Lawrend said.
“Yes, Master,” Elena responded and flew down.
“Master, why didn’t you kill them?” Ember asked.
She hated these two so much. They actually tried to kill her lover. If Lawrend hadn’t stopped her, she might’ve killed them already. Her love for Lawrend was already proven before when she sacrificed her life for him. She didn’t want these two to live after their attempts.
“I will show them a fate worst than death. I won’t let them die that easily.”
Lawrend evilly smirked as he looked at Lucida’s body. She shivered as she felt his intense gaze scanning every inch of her beautiful body. She was wearing a loose white robe around her body that accentuated her curves in some places.
She could only imagine what Lawrend wanted to do with her.
“If you tell me the answer to my question now, you won’t have to suffer the torture I’m about to put you two through next,” Lawrend said.
His words shook Aljea’s heart. She didn’t want her body to be sullied. The thought of it made her want to puke and suicide to end it.
“…”
“…”
“No answers?”
“…”
“…”
“Alright. As they say, silence is consent. Okay. I’m kidding, but you two get the point.”
Lucida shivered slightly and prepared her heart for the worst. Aljea started trembling as fear gripped her heart. She wasn’t afraid of death, but she was afraid of losing the purity that she had kept for tens of thousands of years.
“Master.”
Ramiela flew up and stood in front of Lawrend.
“Where is that special handcuff you use for the Grand Mage angels?”
“I understand. I will handcuff them,” Ramiela replied and nodded her head.
“You traitor!” Aljea shouted.
She couldn’t resist it anymore when she felt the presence of another angel. Lucida did the same but didn’t say anything. She glared at Ramiela with hatred-filled eyes.
“Hmph. I may be a traitor, but I’m happy. Master provides me with my sexual needs and cares for me. He is infinitely better than the so-called Goddess!” Ramiela retorted angrily.
Her words were laced with thorns. Aljea and Lucida’s faces darkened after hearing them.
Her God, Lawrend, was able to accept her sexual desires. He was even able to provide it for her. She liked that, and she loved him too. Her body, heart, and soul were all for him to take advantage of.
Ramiela cuffed the two of them.
Lawrend released his grips on their necks and massaged his tired wrists. It started hurting since he had been gripping necks for more than a week now.
“Let’s go,” Lawrend ordered.
Aezel and Elena brought Aljea with them, and Ember and Ramiela escorted Lucida.
Knowing what was about to come next, Lucida lost hope. She closed her eyes and started praying to the Goddess.
Aljea was more unwilling. She tried to break free, but Ramiela’s handcuff was very strong. Her Grand Mage strength couldn’t easily break free from it.
Soon, they arrived inside the dungeon of the imperial castle.
“Place them in pillories,” Lawrend ordered.
The damp smell of the dungeon and its weird odor profile made them realize that this wasn’t the first thing that something happened there. The panic became visible in Aljea’s eyes as she imagined what was about to happen to her next.
