I looked around, looking for a weak spot of the cell, snapping out of the flashback and shaking the shivers off my back.
I am not as weak as I was before. My mind went haywire as I frantically dashed my eye around the cell, touching the bar just to be thrown back into the wall behind .
Well sh*t…
Even if I was to escape, they had taken my equipnt, dinsion rings, including my portals. They only left my eye patch, as it was protected by a spell. Anyti a foreign object touched the eye patch other than , it would burn their hands unless they overca this feature with mana.
My only option was to talk with their leader. Unnecessary bloodshed was not needed; I'd only need to instil a little fear in them.
**
After a couple of hours, the door opened and a group of won strutted in, closing the door behind themselves. I grunted as they lifted up. Two won held at each arm, struggling to keep up as my legs were too wobbly to stand.
The 'leader' stood in front of with her chin up and shoulders pushed back. She wore a different coloured armour, shining gold while the rest were a dull silver. Her hand ripped through the air before a palm made contact with my cheek. My head fell to the side before a throbbing sensation burned to the surface of my skin.
Ouch.
"Disgusting man," she spoke in a strong Russian accent, her face pulling into a disgusted frown.
The grips on my arms started to tighten and their nails started to pierce my skin forcefully.
"ARRRRGH!" I yanked my hands towards myself from instinct, making them lose balance and bump into each other with small yelps. Four more guards clung onto as they all started panicking.
None of them looked into my eyes, scared of my furious glare.
"Hold him!" the gold woman yelled, eyes widening as my glare pierced through her with it's intensity. She gulped before looking away.
"I want him ready in 10 minutes," she said shaking, before turning around, walking out faster than she walked in.
As soon as she left, the guards around tensed as if there was no one to protect them anymore.
Maybe if I cooperated, they'd get this over with and I could get to the centre of this place. I relaxed myself into their holds but as soon as I did, their hands beca more aggressive, snaking around my torso and making their way under my shirt.
Panic set in as they lifted my shirt and pulled my arms out, holding it there.
"Oi, watch your hands." I warned as they recited spells that transford my clothes.
They rolled their eyes, tightening their hold on . Lastly, they applied new mana binding chains to my hands and feet.
Pushing out of the cell, they held their spears to my throat and guided into a hallway. Where were they taking ?
Two doors at the end of the hallway swung open and two guards 'welcod' in by pulling inside.
It seed that all the inhabitants of the village had arrived at the hall; it still surprised how there wasn't even a single man among the 2 audience of won on each side.
They all looked at in disgust like I was so sort of lowly creature.
A woman in her mid 30's sat on a throne with one leg over the other. She scanned up and down before ordering the guards escorting to make kneel.
The 2 female guards behind kicked the back of my thighs, making fall onto my knees.
"You filthy man, we have been tracking your movents for a long ti. You have gone too far, killing all the protectors of our forest." The lady on the throne declared, with an authoritative tone.
"You don't own this forest and why didn't you warn beforehand? I would have fard so-"
"Silence!" She roared.
'I don't like this were-woman. We should kill her.' Voadhailis's bloodthirst was beginning to influence but I suppressed my feelings.
"I don't want to waste my ti speaking to a re human man. Now for the punishnts of your cris we will give you the bite. You shall be our slave for the rest of your life." She announced, standing up from her throne.
Her canines began to sharpen and grow in length and fur grew on her arms. She was transforming into her beast form.
'What's the bite?' I asked Voadhailis.
'They want to turn you into a wereman. That's probably the reason they let you do whatever you wanted so they'd have a reason to make you their slave. Judging from the amount of were won in this small village, this place is probably on the outskirts of the Weren Kingdom.
'I think they want to use you as combat power and other reasons. What fools!' Voadhailis scoffed.
"Ladies, hold him still." She ordered and the chains binding beca tighter.
She kneeled down to my height and grabbed my arm before biting down on my forearm. She got up smiling, as if she'd achieved sothing.
[You have received 'The Bite']
[Do you wish to accept?]
[Yes/No]
It would help in powering up but it also ant there was a risk that this was like a master and familiar type thing, where I'd have to follow whatever she ordered. I couldn't take the risk.
The weren were known for their extre strength but I was already of a superior species than them. I had Dragon and Demon DNA running through my veins.
'No.'
['The Bite' has been rejected]
[Effects have been neutralised]
"Why aren't you writhing in pain? What's happening?" She gasped in shock. The other werewon looked towards my direction in shock.
"It's the eyepatch. It won't allow to be affected by external things." I lied.
"I'll just remove it then." She smiled, moving in to grab the eyepatch. She flinched back as she made contact; the eyepatch burned her fingers.
"What is that thing? You think this is a ga you filthy man!" She roared in her Russian accent, before kicking my head to the side.
'Ow.'
I spat out so blood, before glaring at her.
"You dare look at the general in that manner! You filthy creature!" This ti the guard standing next to her rushed towards and kicked my head backwards.
"That serves him right. What a grueso creature. Disgusting."
I could hear whispers from the villagers on the sides and it made it even harder to contain my bloodthirst.
The General raised her mana pressure and coated her fingers with Beast mana. She grabbed the eye patch from my eye and yanked it off.
"Bad Idea." I muttered through my breath.
Imdiately, a powerful mana pressure fell down on them, increasing the gravity by a tenfold. My killing intent and mana pressure made the guards holding my chains shake in fear and most of the villagers were already on the floor gasping and others had fainted from the enormous change in the atmosphere.
"Wh-What is this hideous mana?" The general struggled to talk, she unsheathed her sword and gripped it tightly. So she could still move?
'So what if she can move. She's shaking like a leaf.' Voadhailis scoffed at her.
I then opened my right eye and showed her my demon eye. With a click of my fingers the mana binding chains shattered into thousands of pieces.
"Y-You're a demon! But how did you break the mana binding chains?" She gasped in shock.
I slowly walked towards her and roundhouse kicked her head. Her body flew to the left, crashing into one of the walls. Sadly for her, these chains only suppressed my mana. I could still use Dragonic Mana from the secondary mana pool.
"That's for the kick you gave before."
I then walked up to her sidekick and slapped her face, knocking her out instantly.
"You guys wanted to use ? Really? You think it was going to be that easy? You guys are lucky your princess is my friend. I'm going to spare your lives today."
With that I released my mana pressure and the won all still stood in fear. They had never felt such a bone chilling mana pressure before. I only released my full power for a short mont but It instilled a fear in them they had never encountered.
The General picked herself up and scanned her surroundings. She knew her forces' morale had been broken.
"What do you want from us?" She asked, the acceptance of defeat oozing from her voice.
"I will spare your lives this ti as I'm an acquaintance of Saraphina Claws. In return, you will return all my belongings and allow to finish my training here. Also, send so food everyday. I'm tired from eating Magical beasts." I sighed.
"Y-You know Saraphina Claws?"
"Yes."
"Then I apologise for my rude gestures and treatnt. Please accept my apology." She gave a bow.
"Fine whatever. Now give my belongings."
**
The reason I let them catch was due to my curiosity. I was intrigued; I wanted to maybe benefit from them in the future sohow. Although I used fear as my negotiating tool in the beginning, it worked. At least they didn't suffer any casualties.
I had received their loyalty and even got sent delicious food during my ditating periods.
Soon, the villagers even began to like and I would visit them at the end of the day to bring them new at to cook.. Their cooking skills were almost on par to my mother's cooking, it made content knowing I wouldn't have to eat unseasoned and burnt at for the rest of my training period.
