My Servant System

583 Chapter 582: Information



"Kat, enough..."

Those two words cut through the euphoric red haze that had descended over my mind, making me gasp as my consciousness was returned to me.

The strong hand on my shoulder anchored me down as I came back around, and I took a deep breath as I ripped my gaze away from the bloody, horrific mess that used to be the Elf, who was now mentally dead but still physically alive.

Releasing the spell, I allowed the frost that had turned the woman's skin black to eat her alive, shutting off her body's systems and eventually granting her the sweet release of death.

After a few more measured breaths, I stood up and cleaned myself off before sheathing my dagger and retrieving my rapier, my lips pursed into a thin line as I looked around myself, taking in the carnage that I had wrought with just the Elf and Bearkin.

As for the Serpentkin, she had eventually died off as well when I unconsciously canceled the healing spell on her, the blood loss killing her from the myriad wounds scarring her body.

That left only the Cowkin alive, and I had to resist the urge to kill her as well when a fresh - yet subdued - wave of anger washed over me as I was reminded of what I had learned; pieces of information that I had gotten from each and things that they all confirmed, with the Elf being the largest treasure trove yet as she confessed after the third regeneration.

A smaller Noble House had targeted us to try and rob Jahi of the masterfully crafted sword on her back, something that the Empress herself had deigned Jahi worthy enough to wield despite being such a raw fighter at the time she received it.

Celestial Gold and Stygian Silver - a rare material that was already worth so much in the Stygian Silver, but the Celestial Gold?

Priceless.

After all, the Empress was the only one who could create such an alloy of incredible power, making it one of the rarest materials in the entire world as far as I was concerned.

Hence why I was also rather confused; no one would be willing to buy or utilize such a blade in the open, and rumors spread fast anywhere inside the Empire, but especially in the underground, so why risk so much for something that no one would want to touch?

It's a material that would be retrieved by all costs, by either the Empress herself or House Asmodia, who are the current owners of said material...

None of it makes sense, and least of all from a small Noble House; they don't have the resources or influence to snatch such a weapon on their own, let alone sell it or trade it away.

So who was actually behind it?

Well, I was hoping to find out, so I reined in my anger and made my way over to the Cowkin lifting her up and walking her over towards the canyon, speaking as I walked.

"She apparently saw who their leader - Esmerelda - made the deal with, and where. So perhaps she can spot them again? Either way, we need to get out of here for now and sneak her out of the Dungeon. Do we have a spare cloak?"

The others ruffled through their bags before shaking their heads, making me sigh as I took off mine and draped it over her shoulders, before cutting off a piece of it and wrapping it around her eyes after dissolving the helmet.

"Don't try to escape, and don't make a scene. Otherwise, you'll die terribly. Got that?"

She nodded like a bobblehead, her chapped lips stuck together as she allowed me to guide her towards the exit of the Caverns, where we would regroup and make a plan.

No one knew who their leader had dealt with, but they knew that a deal had been made and that the people who did it were small time Nobles; something that the red skinned Esmerelda made known to her ragtag group of bandits when telling them what their next - and last - score would be.

With my hand firmly grasped on her elbow, the Cowkin was led back towards the surface without much issue, the three others following behind as we exited the Caverns and began to make our way over towards the Cabin instead of the Palace.

No one stopped us as we quickly made our way through the streets of the Capital, most assuming that we were trying to find a place to cure our companion who I was guiding through the streets, even though that couldn't be further from the truth.

Jahi opened the door leading into the Cabin and watched as we all entered, before locking the door behind us and gesturing towards the large bedroom, where the Cowkin wouldn't be able to see anything that might give her location away.

Sitting her down, I undid the blindfold and stared at her still wet amber eyes, a small amount of pity welling inside me at the sight that was quickly washed away by indifference.

She looked between all four of us, our eyes hard as we stared quietly at her, and eventually the Cowkin clenched the cloak closer to herself and angled her body away, her cheeks darkening as she hesitantly said "I-If you're g-going to r-r-rape me, g-get it over with..!"

I blinked for a moment as I mentally reviewed what she just said, before my eyes lowered from her wet cheeks to her large, fluffy breasts and thin waist, which billowed out into a wide pair of hips that gave her that fantastical hourglass figure.

My lips curled up in disgust as I stared at her, snarling "No one here is going to fuck you! By the Goddess... What, were you just going to let it happen?! No fight for that?"

Indifference was replaced with disgust as I glared at her, before sighing as I shook my head, looking away from her and back towards Jahi, who just raised a brow as she inspected the Cowkin.

Silence reined inside the bedroom, and the Demoness eventually lifted her gaze from the Cowkin and looked at her three lovers, her lips twitching into a small smile as she noticed we were all glaring at her, daring her to say something.

Raising her hands, she stepped back and left the room, followed by Anput and Leone quickly enough.

I snorted at the Cowkin before binding her arms and gagging her mouth, leaving her in the room as I joined the others outside to discuss our plans going forwards.
