Ignoring the disposable people, I looked at Olivia and took a good look at her body to check if she was fine. After making sure of her injuries, I had only found a few scratches that seed fairly new, making sigh in relief. It was only then that I looked towards Yuri who was constantly being held up by chains as the countless whip marks on her body leaked traces of blood.
She looked so weak and fragile at this mont that even the whispers in my head stopped whispering for her, not sure if it was out of sympathy or sheer pity, yet I also held their sa thoughts no matter what they were. It seed that even I myself could not understand what I was feeling. It was as if sothing was squeezing my heart the mont I saw her, yet at the sa ti, my lungs felt lights and were able to take in any amount of air.
'What is this feeling' Even though not a single muscle on my face moved throughout the whole ti I stared at her as the place beca more and more silent, my inner emotions were all in disarray.
In the end, only a few strings of words could leave my mouth and create a sentence.
"Wow... This is pathetic"
*silence*
My eyes quickly locked onto her soul fla that was depleting rapidly. My natural instincts to to give her so of my blood to save her even though I myself thought I did not care all that much about her. Yet, since my instincts were telling to do sothing, I would do it without asking since my instincts were the only things that had not failed in the last few years of my life.
Imdiately, under the gazes of everyone in the room, I quickly walked over to Yuri and raised her chin up to look at her lifeless and dull eyes. The feeling inside grew a little stronger but I still did not know what it was. The closest thing I could compare it to was a pity.
I swiftly bit my wrist and started to draw blood before forcing the wound to stay open with a bit of arcane magic that kept the blood going. A few monts later, I had my wrist on her luscious lips as she began to forcefully drink the blood. After a few seconds I tried to pull my hand away but in the next instant, I heard the cracking of chains before her hand grabbed onto my arm and started to such the blood out of even harder.
Only then did I stop forcefully opening my wounds, making them heal almost instantly compared to the normal human healing that might have taken days to heal that kind of wound.
Even though my wounds had already healed and there was no more blood coming out, Yuri did not stop holding onto my arm and sucking on the place my blood was coming out of. Her complexion now had completely returned while at the sa ti, her aura had started to increase in power and strength by the second since she had no chains restricting her.
Only then was I able to get a good look at her face that now looked a lot more healthy than the pale white skin she had earlier, what at the sa ti, her eyes seed to have regained so kind of fervor they had lost when I had gotten here.
"Are you okay?" I asked with a cold and uncaring tone which was what I thought I felt towards her. I thought I did not give a single shit about how she was and at most, she was a tool who could turn into a well-trained pet in the future who might do all my bidding if I were to please.
"L-Lilith... Rosemary..." Yuri began to sob slightly as his shoulders began to shudder and tears ford in her eyes.
"Rosemary?" I looked at Rose with a weird expression.
'Who the fuck is Rosemary... Didn't I just make up Rose's na on the spot back then? Am I so kind of god?' I chuckled inwardly while the imaginary voice of Hela told that this probably wasn't the right ti for to be praising myself, especially after there were countless people
"We'll talk about it later..." She smiled mysteriously making shrug. Everyone had their secrets after all, and it was not like I really cared that much about what her na was. I would just wall her what I was more comfortable with,
Out of nowhere, I felt a tight grasp hold onto my arm with dear life. I quickly looked at the sobbing Yuri who kept grabbing my arm as if it was the only thing that could make her forget what had happened. On the other hand, I was currently looking down at her pathetic figure with a mixture of what now clearly felt like pity laced with a bit of amusent.
'She is truly a child' I sighed and shook my head.
A few seconds later, I pulled my hand back making Yuri look at my eyes with her teary ones, as if pleading to not be let go of. To that, I swiftly took off my jacket and put it around her shoulders. It was sothing I learned off the internet when I was back on earth. People like firefighters or police would put a blanket around soone to calm them down and with that, I hoped that I could calm down this crying child in front of .
'Must have been really pampered to cry like that from a little torture' I inwardly sneered.
It was only then that I looked back at where Olivia was. When I looked over, I saw Olivia look back at with a warm smile, the smile I would see after training for weeks and being forcefully stopped by both Olivia and Juilam to eat and talk and sleep.
This was the smile of a person who while they might be soone forced to submit under , was not forced to do anything unless I had asked them to. Yet even though I asked for nothing, she gave everything. She smiled when I needed warmth in my heart, she held as I cried to sleep, she stroked my head as I slept, she forced to feed when I forget to do so for weeks, and in general, she had always been there for in the last 2 years...
And what had I done for her? When I was assigned this mission, I wasted 4 full days to even waiting for an answer from those idiots who happened to form a party. Even before that, I had completely neglected Olivia due to thinking I knew best...
"Hey Olivia" A warm smile stretched up at the corners of my lips as I walked towards the steel bars. I quickly bent the bars and created a hole in the cell big enough for a 5ft 10 human to get past it, since that was the current size of Olivia.
"Are you okay?" I asked with a little bit of worry.
"Of course I'm okay" She smiled back with a thumbs-up.
"Your lying..." I frowned
"Why would I be lying?" She tilted her head to the right.]
"You tell ..." I replied
"..."
"..."
Finally sighing, I quickly wrapped my hands around her head and pulled her closer to my chest. While I might have grown taller, I was still 4 and a half inches shorter than Olivia forcing to pull her down.
When she finally felt the warmth of my chest, I heard an almost inaudible sniffle, yet I decided to ignore it since she had decided not to want t talk about it.
"Are you okay?" I repeated my first question
"Yes..." A muffled reply could be heard coming from her.
"DId they hurt you?" I asked with no hint of anger in my voice.
"No..." Her fla flickered, making my eyes beco cold while the air around beca much more distorted.
My eyes darted past everyone in the cellar while looking to every one of their soul flas to see what they had done. From the reaction of my gaze, I could easily guess which soul fla had been tainted with the filth of sinning recently.
"Oi, you guys" My voice made the tal walls in the room vibrate in synchronization with the waves of power being released out of .
I quickly hugged the now sobbing Olivia closer and tighter to my chest while covering her ears, as if I was protecting a child from the real world. The next second, however, golden electricity started to crackle out of my body with probably enough power to fry everyone with a collar on by just being close to it.
*Crackle*
"LILITH!" Rose shouted from the side, yet I acted like I could not hear her.
3 arches of lightning shot towards the most sinful 3 that happened to be 3 n from the lighting dragons guild. At the sa ti, I looked at the won who seed to have lost their wills to live before making a decision.
"You can call it rcy killing" I muttered as three more arches of lightning shot towards the won, yet was stopped by a blood wall.
"Lilith, that is enough"
