POV of a psychopath:
I was smoking a blood herb cigar, those are hard to find on this continent, I was very lucky to find so here.
I was enjoying my cigar while enjoying the beautiful view of the night sky, it had been ages since I had seen the stars or these beautiful moons.
"You know, it's been a long ti since I've been deprived of many things, it may not seem like it, but I've spent a lot of ti trapped in a place where light from these beautiful moons would never reach." (I)
That damn place, if I close my eyes I can still hear the incessant complaints of those diocre criminals or the insults of the soldiers there.
"D3since I freed myself I tried to enjoy life to the fullest, I did everything I thought of during my imprisonnt, I thought it would bring so happiness..." (I)
I pop the cigar in my mouth, the bloodstains adding an extra flavor to this rarity, then turn to the beautiful woman sitting on the bed behind , her body still hidden by the darkness of the room.
I smile seeing her sitting like this, then turn to the window I open to get a better view of this beautiful sky.
"You know, I used to talk a lot, but since I was released, I think it's the first ti I've talked to another person this much." (I)
I hold the cigar between my fingers as I smile.
"It's really nice to have soone to listen to, I think I can tell you a little bit of my story." (I)
"I think I can tell you a little about her, the love of my life... Ellen..." (I)
"She who is also the one I hate the most in this filthy world!" (I)
Anger takes over my body making almost destroy this beautiful cigar in my hands.
Sigh
"Thinking of her reminds of the past... I still rember those wonderful days." (I)
"It all started..." (I)
-----------
It was 850 years ago, I was one of the most influential and strong people in the entire Dark Continent, my base of operations was in the weakest realm near that place full of undead, that place had the perfect environnt for my business.
"You bastard, how many tis do I have to say that poisons and drugs should be kept in separate places." (I)
"Sir, please sir, I swear I'll do it right next ti, you can kill , but my family, let my family..."
"You idiot, they've been dead for days, but since you were being so competent I let you live, but now I think you can stay with your family, I'm very generous, right?" (I)
"You bastard----"
"Damn, my new pants are now stained with your blood, can't even in death do sothing right?" (I)
I had a very profitable business in that place, but unfortunately, it had a lot of incompetent employees, it was a headache trying to give the poor people of that place a purpose, but it had its good monts.
In one of those monts was when I t her, a chocolate colored skin that only made her beautiful silver hair more evident, she was a Dhampir with one red eye and the other pink, she was beautiful.
She arrived with a caravan of traders, she led the caravan bringing Human slaves that had not been sold in other cities and Realms.
I was at the capital city gate of that Kingdom getting ready to leave, I rember I was going to have a business eting, but before going through the city gate to leave I saw her entering right in front of the caravan, the week beauty was magnificent.
I knew I had to et her, that's why I gave up on the trip I was going to take, that's because the mont she passed our eyes t and she smiled at .
I spent the next few weeks visiting her, always bringing her gifts, she quickly opened up to to find out we had similar businesses.
Like , she was soone who knew the importance of a stable and profitable financial life, one night after drinking heavily next to her I heard about her past, a daughter of rchants who saw the opportunities her parents missed, the day her parents disappeared she took everything and the business has prospered ever since.
She always demonstrated her intelligence and business skills, I even proposed that we join forces, so we could take care of everything much better, both my business and hers.
Everything was going great, we were happy that day that everything changed, she and I had taken a trip to et so business partners about sothing I had in mind, I was carrying my lucky charm, with it I always ended my negotiations with a favorable agreent for both parties.
"Bastard, do you think blackmailing her will work on !?"
"I'm sure you will." (I)
"What is this glove, take it away from ...aahhhhhhh!!!!!"
"You will do whatever I want you to do." (I)
"I already took care of the spies following him." (Ellen)
"How many rcenaries have we lost?" (I)
"Everyone, I used them as a sacrifice to activate the magic crystal you gave ." (Ellen)
"Excellent work as always dear." (I)
"Aahhhh!!!!"
"How long will this take, it usually only takes a few seconds." (Ellen)
"He's a noble of the Black Empire, it looks like there's sothing in his body preventing my artifact from ssing with his mind, maybe so magic used on his body, but that will only make him suffer longer." (I)
"He should have accepted our first wake up proposal, idiot." (Ellen)
"Yes, he thought he could steal the throne with the help of two enemy Realms, an unprepared idiot." (I)
"If he were smart he would have done the sa as , building his strength little by little and outside the Empire, so they wouldn't notice, I'm sure they'll be surprised when they see most of their nobles under my control... hahahahahaha..." (I)
We were happy, while I finalized an excellent deal, I also hugged the woman who would be my wife one day, we had plans for the future, we would go to the top together, and nothing could stop us.
But then like all dreams, the illusion was shattered and all that was left was emptiness.
"What is... this... my head..." (I)
"Looks like it finally worked, it took longer than I thought." (Ellen)
"Ellen, what... did you... do..." (I)
"You don't need to know, goodbye my conspirator fool..." (Ellen)
"Ellen..." (I)
I rember the disbelief I felt that day, my body was so weak that even with my great power, I was not able to gather strength, my vision and other senses were becoming confused, and speaking and breathing beca difficult.
As I sat my conscience slipping away, I could see one last ti my Ellen's face smiling coldly at , her words breaking my heart.
The last thing she said was her na, but for the first ti, I spoke that na full of hate and murderous intent, unfortunately, it was useless.
