Chapter 38 Twisted Lies
Chapter 38 Twisted Lies
"AHHH!!" he screamed in pain, his voice echoing in the basement. I could feel the fear in his voice, the realization sinking in that he was truly helpless in this situation. Inflicting pain on the person who wanted me dead was incredibly satisfying.
"Do you want to be a criminal, Zyden ? You will be imprisoned if you don't stop. You can still stop this madness !" His words were laced with anger, his teeth gritted as he spoke. It seemed that his innate skill, Sadism, was giving him a false sense of bravery.
This is way better for me. It would be boring if he didn't show his true colors. I chuckled in response to his feeble attempt at manipulation.
"Oh, Uncle, you really think I haven't thought this through? You're underestimating me again."
I leaned in closer.
"I know exactly what I'm doing, and I have the means to make sure things go my way. Don't you worry about me, worry about yourself."
"You damn brat !" He scowled at me, his anger and frustration evident. He was used to being the one in control, and now the tables had turned completely against him.
"Cut his fingers one by one until I tell you to stop," I commanded Allysa.
She did not hesitate at all and began the gruesome task with a nonchalant look on her face.
SLICE!
"AHHHH... !!!! FUCK YOU .. I WILL FUCKING KILL YOU BITCH! "
<nulli><nullb>*SLICE! <nulli><nullb>*SLICE !
The sound of each finger being severed was like music to my ears.
<nulli><nullb>*SLICE !
"Stop! Please stop!" he begged, tears streaming down his face as he writhed in pain.
"I'll do anything you want, just please stop cutting my fingers !"
I kept my gaze steady on him, not showing any signs of mercy. This was my chance to make him pay for all the misery he had caused me over the years.
"Allysa, stop," I commanded, and she immediately withdrew the knife.
He let out a relieved sigh, his body trembling from the pain.
"You see, Uncle, I have the power now," I said with a cold smile. "And I won't hesitate to use it to make you suffer."
"I will kill you if you spout nonsense again," I warned.
[Suggestion Success ]
"Tell me everything,"
[Suggestion Success ]
A smile formed on my face after seeing the notifications. The power of my suggestion was strong enough to make him confess, even if he is in pain.
"Why did you do it? Why did you try to kill me?" I asked. Of course, I already know the answer, but I just want to hear his whole reason.
If it was solely about money, he could have acted kindly towards me. That way, I would have been more likely to share the inheritance with him. But his actions were excessively brutal, so it couldn't have been just for money.
He took a deep breath, his voice tinged with defiance, and answered me,.
"It's because of your damn father and mother!" He gritted his teeth in anger
"What about them?" I inquired, my curiosity getting the better of me. While I didn't really care about my parents enough to feel anger at the mention of their names, I was still curious about his reasoning.
"They betrayed me! You might not know this, but I actually knew your mother before she met your father. We crossed paths while I was working. I tried to get close to her, offering help with her issues and showing her kindness. But you know what she did? She rejected me and chose my brother instead, all because he was wealthier than me. What a treacherous woman. That's when I realized that in this world, only those with money can truly get what they want!"
"Serves him right! In the end, I just had to lie to him about your mother leaving him for another man, and he got depressed and got himself killed!HAHAHA " He started laughing like a maniac. The suggestion skill made him unable to lie, so his true colors were finally revealed.
"What did you say?" My heart sank after hearing him.
"You're the reason why father died?" I asked with a weak voice. I had always thought that my father died due to depression. I blamed my parents for my misfortunes, but this might not be the case after all.
But something more important caught my ears . My mother!
"What did you do to my mother?" I grabbed his collar in anger.
"I don't know . That bitch just disappeared one day, and I just lied to your father about seeing her leaving with another man. Hahahaha." he laughed hysterically.
"You piece of shit !" all my anger burst out . This bastard don't deserve to live at all.
I raised my fist and punched him.
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
"You son of a bitch! You think my parents' lives are a joke?"
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
"Do you know how much I've suffered because of you?"
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
"Did you even feel guilty about what you did to my father?"
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
"How can you call yourself a human being? You're a fucking monster!"
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
I kept hitting him with my fist. I might not be that strong, but the adrenaline rushing through me made me feel stronger. I wanted to punch him to death. I wanted to make him suffer.
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
<nulli><nullb>*Punch !
I could feel my hands bleeding from all the punches, but I still didn't want to stop. I wanted him to suffer more. However, my rational thoughts jolted me from my blind rage.
"No, I can't kill him yet," I shook my head. Even if I killed him now, people would become suspicious about his sudden disappearance. It would create more problems for me.
It was a good thing that my skill was able to bring some sense to me before I made a terrible mistake.
THUD!
I let go of him, allowing him to drop to the ground. I could see his battered face, his mouth bleeding, and his nose clearly broken from the beating he had received from me.
"Take care of him, but don't let him escape. He can't die yet," I scoffed, my anger still burning.
I hurriedly left the basement; being there only fueled my desire to kill this pathetic excuse for a human being .
