Chapter 111: Interrogation

The three of them walked down the dungeon, while Claus turned to look at Cian with an annoyed look, " And would you mind not adding water to the dungeons when you are interrogating someone? I mean I understand that you want to scare the man off good but your victims are always men without guts. Right now, that man is sitting in the puddle of waste and honestly neither I nor the piranhas like it. I tried to clean him up with magic but he still reeks, so before entering you both better be prepared."

" I will take note of this," said Cian with a polite smile. " Thanks for trying to clean him up, I know he must have made things difficult for you."

" Oh, he sure did," snorted Claus. " Throughout the time he was whining like a little bitch, complaining and begging me to let him go, do I look that nice?"

With his curly blonde hair, baby blue eyes and angelic face that could easily fool the devil himself, Claus indeed looked like he was sweet and harmless. No one in their right mind would think that this man was the guild master of an assassin guild but like everyone said appearance can be deceiving and Claus surely was the most deceptive when it came to appearances.

" No, you don’t master," said Dominic at once with a chuckle. " You look like you can take a big mamba shifter with just one punch, don’t worry."

Claus’s face turned a bit more mollified after he listened to Dominic, he hated his angelic looks and the way everyone took him lightly because of his pretty face.

Cian led the way down the cold dungeons that were lit by flaming candles in the sconce, the candles lit up the dark dungeons with their golden glow. Though they could have used magical orbs to light up the entire space, Claus was adamant about giving the dungeons a gloomy, dangerous edge and that was why he was determined to keep the dungeons as they were, shrouded in dark with the least amount of light.

As soon as the group reached the end of the dungeon where Cian has kept Mr broody, scents of bile, piss and nothing but a man’s pride fallen on the floor. He paused, his nose scrunching up as he looked at the bars at the end of the dungeon, his Siren baulked and squawked and even Cian had to use all he had to stop himself from gagging. But then he shook his head and squared his shoulder as he raised his feet to walk into the room when he suddenly twisted his head and looked behind his shoulder with a sharp look in his eyes——

Dominic and Claus turned their head in the direction in which Cian was looking and frowned before Dominic asked, " What’s wrong? Why are you looking there?"

Cian frowned and shook his head before turning to look in front. " No, it’s nothing ...I thought that there was ...no never mind." Before heading towards where they have kept Mr Broody.

Once they were gone, a leopard cat that has stuck itself to the wall stepped out and let out a low hiss of indignation as if angry with the pink-haired male for being so sensitive. It rubbed its paws on the floor before following the group a lot more carefully than before.

As Cian came to a stop in front of the prison cell where Mr Broody was kept, he gave his captive who was missing a great deal of flesh from his feet a triumphant smile. He raised his hand and snapped his fingers before breaking the spell that he has cast on the man at once his eyes cleared and he looked at Cian, ignoring the tremors that went through the man the second he saw him and said, " Morning Mr Broody, lovely day isn’t it?" waving his hand in front of his nose, he crinkled his nose and said, " I heard that you made quite a mess of yourself, Mr Broody. But don’t worry everything will end today and you won’t have to go through it again but that’s of course when you answer my questions without doing a repetition of last night."

He whistled lightly and called the piranhas that were nibbling on Mr Broody’s legs back before draining the water that was filling the prison a little. " Now, don’t think that I am taking it easy on you, I will have you locked and confounded like last night if you piss me off all right?"

Fear...Raw wild fear glittered in Mr Broody’s eyes.

" Now let’s get started shall we?" smiling Cian winked at him. " I know that you are together with a black wizards guild and I also know that you are doing something really, really wrong. In fact illegal ... if the Queen finds out she will have your limbs torn and throw you in the middle of the streets as a living spittoon, in case you don’t want to die drinking everyone’s piss and spit, you better tell me your name."

" Andrew...Andrew Harris" replied the black mage, his voice thick with pain.

Cian smiled as he took the stool sitting in the corner of the corridor. " See, now that wasn’t hard, was it?"

" I still prefer Mr Broody you know," said Dominic as he leaned against the wall. " Andrew is too good of a name for trash like this."

Privately, Cian agreed with him.

" Now, Andrew..which dark guild do you belong to?" asked Cian with an imperious arch of his brow.

Andrew took on a lethargic intake of breath as he turned to look at the only escape from his prison and answered, " Asmodeus... I belong to the Asmodeus guild."

" I see," though Cian has never heard about the Asmodeus guild then again dark guild often lurked in the shadows. " Well, would you mind telling me why you tried to kidnap me?"

His prisoner averted his eyes briefly before shooting another look at the prison door where Dominic and Claus were standing.

" Or I can leave you alone with my little friends?" said Cian motioning to the piranhas that were swimming at the bottom of the magically curated prison. " You can take your time, I am not in a hurry." As he said that, he went to stand up but was stopped when Andrew immediately shouted, " W...Wait ....I will tell you... I will tell you everything."
