Chapter 780: 'Guided Tour' (2)
"What do you want to know? How it all started? What the 'highlight of my career' was? Perhaps you wish to know if I've ever personally killed soone?"
Taking a seat beside , Christina folded her hands in her lap and took on the perfect image of a Noblewoman as she looked over at , her questions informing
quite a bit about herself as I nodded and said "I'm going to take a guess on that last one and say it's a yes."
That made her narrow her orange eyes before she nodded back at , eventually taking a breath before she said "I've done it a few tis, but I know it isn't for . I don't enjoy getting my hands dirty the sa way others do... I would rather sully my mind rather than my body. But yes, I have snuffed the life from soone. In my defense... they deserved it. My first kill... how about we swap that story, Miss Rhefia? Give and take is a wonderful thing isn't it? I give you a story and I want to take one from you..."
"That's acceptable, Christina. As the guest though I believe you go first~!"
The Queen Bee nodded again and said "It was a simple affair, really. My associates and I were owed a large amount of money in exchange for keeping this person safe. We did our job, took a few hits along the way, but everything was done cleanly. Nothing was traceable, nothing was sloppy...
That wasn't enough for our employer though, and they wanted to ensure NOTHING was traceable, so when we returned them to their ho they tried to kill all of us. So we fought back and killed them instead. I'm not proud of it, but it happened; I plunged a dagger into a woman's throat and forced her to choke on her own blood.
or her... and I chose ."
She trailed off and glanced at
expectantly, her put together deanor cracking a little from that, though she almost hid it rather well since she also 'accidentally' moved in a way that emphasized her enormous bust... and of course I took a look, though I was accustod to this sort of thing.
"I was a soldier, Christina, so my first kill is another ' or her', but the difference is the 'her' in this situation was threatening the peace of our country, so I have no regrets nor questions on what I did. My first dozen kills were all on the sa day, then it took another week to double that...
The thing about it, Christina, is that there was peace after I killed. My ho was quickly returned to that lull of blissful peace after my first battle, and while I continued to serve it wasn't on the frontline of a war. I was maintaining the peace I had earned, and ever since then I got to experience the wonders of peace, be they good or bad."
"That is our difference, I suppose... you killed for peace, I killed for myself. And yet, Miss Rhefia, from what I have heard we were treated the sa. I was hunted, you were hunted. The difference was that I was found, you were not. But... at least there is peace."
"At least there is peace. Though sotis I wonder if that is a good thing. Peace is so different and so... fragile. It has created quite the precarious balance in this world, one that I worry about."
That earned a raised brow from the Beekin as she asked "Why are you worried about peace?
