Shi Lang and the rest of the Terrans waited for the teams of the secret division to return to the den. Meanwhile, Nuiya had tied up the finance minister and dragged him back to the Queen’s residence. Abbey wanted to ask what was even happening when Zysha came forward and sniffed his face, before revealing her dagger-like canines.

Nexalia said, “Zysha, leave him for a few more hours.”

The tigress growled near the man’s face, making him shiver. After that Nuiya put the designated prince in the seat of the royal vessel, and then along with a convoy of three more vessels, they flew off.

Abbey’s mouth had been unsealed and he asked, “Where are you taking me?”

Nexalia, however, did not say anything to him. Abbey said, “Nexa, I deserve an answer.” seething in rage.

At this time, the silence was ticking him off more than anything. Nexalia raised her eyes and gazed at his face. She said, “You do not get to call me Nexa. You do not deserve anything, not after what you did. All this time, warming your bed with Chol, did she not tell you what her ambition is, and why was she sent to the intelligence department?”

Abbey was shocked, his marriage to Chol was a secret. His eyes widened when Nexalia mentioned this. He wanted to ask how she knew.

Nexalia sneered and said, “You think only you have people keeping tabs on me? In the morning, I will give you a gift you will never be able to forget. I will make you understand the reason why I was made to sit on the throne and not an incompetent fool like you.”

Her words, brought him back to the guy from his stupor. Abbey could not believe that his sister was stepping down so hard to humiliate him. He wanted to say something when Zysha raised her head to glare at him and bared her fangs.

Nuiya did not speak but after an hour she said, “Your Majesty, we are here.”

Nexalia nodded and looked outside the window. She found the vessel to be nose diving directly into a small opening, exposed on the surface of the lake. She closed her eyes tight and the next moment, the vessels stopped. It slowly landed on the pad, and the cockpit was opened.

Ameris stepped forward to help Nexalia get down the aircraft. Nuiya dragged the finance minister out with no hesitation in her actions. Abbey was led to sit in the interrogation room. He could tell that in front of him was a glass wall. The visibility of this glass could be manipulated to see through or block vision.

After a palace guard tied up the minister in his seat, Shi Lang walked inside the room with a mask on his face. He did not say anything to the man, but started to use a knife to undress the minister. Abbey was shocked and then he yelled, “What are you doing? Who are you? Do you know who I am? What is going on here? Call Nexalia, tell her to come over. I demand her to come over.”

Shi Lang paused his hand, Abbey heaved a sight of relief, but what happened next was even more obscure. Shi Lang tied his hands to a rod hook from the ceiling, and same was done to the legs. Both ankles and wrists were tied to the rods.

Abbey was now standing in the middle of the room with his hands and legs tied. His clothes have all fell down. Suddenly, he struggled and the rods on his joints increased in length, but they did not decrease. When Abbey realized this, he looked at the masked man in front of him.

Shi Lang said in a hoarse voice, “Those are telescopic tubes, I encourage you to struggle and extend them. It will be easier to get things done then.”

Abbey asked again, “Who are you? Why are you doing this?”

Shi Lang did not say much and left the room, with a dim light left to illuminate the room. What was more, the man could see his helpless self in the reflective mirrors.

..The debut release happened at N0v3lBiin.

Nexalia asked, “What is he doing?”

Quinn said, “Torture.”

Nexalia has never seen anything torture method like this. In a room opposite to Abbey, Chol was able to watch it all, they were parted with a glass wall. However, her side of the glass was not blackened. When the masked man walked outside, she thought that Abbey had not brokendown. However, the masked man walked inside her side of the room.

Shi Lang said, “Now, it is time to break him.”

This was the queue for Quinn to control the blackened glass and make it transparent. Shi Lang sighed and then he began to approach ,Chol. The mask on Shi Lang’s face was making him look menacing. From the other side, Abbey could see what was happening and he was shocked to see that these people even got Chol into custody.

Chol was a noble, and then she became the head of the intelligence department. She never had any experience of what physical torment was. She was a pampered little girl. However, at this moment all this changed. Shi Lang walked over and without saying anything, his feet made contact with the lady’s temple.

The impact of the kick was so hard that it flung Chol a couple of meters in the air. Abbey was shocked, he yelled, “What the fuck are you doing, you bastard.”

Shi Lang could hear him through the earpiece under the mask, but he did not stop, he held Chol by her throat and lifted her in the void. He held her up in the air, as her leg fluttered. Abbey yelled, what do you want from us. Stop it.”

He was humiliated, his dignity was lying in shreds on the floor. First the solidarity prison hold. Then him being dragged around like a dog, piled up with him being tied to the ceiling naked, and watching his wife getting beaten. This was all humility, and as Nexalia described his state of mind being petty and weak, he was vulnerable.

Shi Lang planned all this to get his spear through the heart of Abbey in one go. The information regarding Chol coming out was a timely assistance of luck to him. Abbey was cunning but he was afraid of pain, that was why he did not take a step up after all this preparation.

He did not have the guts, while he was scared of pain, Chol was scared of something else. Shi Lang spoke, “Finance Minister Abbey, did you planned to rebel against the throne of the Neomonian Empire? Did you plan to go against the wishes of the predecessing rulers of the empire? Did you plan to assassinate Her Majesty, Nexalia Neytiri to usurp the throne, even after sharing a direct blood relationship with her as a biological sibling?”

Abbey heard all this and the last shred of his cunning and cleverness left him. The man yelled, “Yes, Yes, Yes, I did all this, I planned with the other courtiers to make things difficult for her, and on a suitable event to over throw her. I used the royal mint as my personal tool to buy the loyalty of people and also caused the economic troubles in the empire from time to time. Let Chol go, she will die, she will die.”

By the end of the monologue, he was sobbing. The man was under the charm of pillow whispers from Chol.

Shi Lang slapped the woman hard and threw her on the ground. He said, “Take him away and sedate him. This lady will need some extra work. She is a tough nut.”

Ameris entered the room and dragged the naked man away from the place. Shi Lang ripped away the clothes of Chol and tied her in the same manner as he had tied Abbey. He said, “I will give you ten minutes to think carefully. If you told me about the third prince you saw in the woods today, I will let you go, but if not you will have thousand ants crawling over and inside you.”

His voice made the half unconscious lady shiver and wake up. However, she did not believe this man to be so ruthless. She was a lady and a very beautiful one at that. How can he not succumb to her charms. She said in a low voice, “You do not need to do this, I..”

Before she could count more, Shi Lang had started pouring some thick liquid on her body. Then without caring for her, he walked out and quickly came back with a steel wire cage. Chol looked inside the cage and she shivered.

However, her mental constrain was stronger than Abbey’s. Shi Lang did not see her eyes waver and without wasting a second, he opened the cage. The cage contained a few creatures that looked like ants but they were all as big as a rabbit, and they had shark like teeth covering the inside of there mouth.

Ameris had told Shi Lang, once they tasted blood, they will slowly shred the flesh of their prey, to enjoy the agony, it was said that the prey would be alive till it was digested by these creatures. Shi Lang had just set out four of them on Chol.

He said, “Whether you say anything or not, we can find it all out, however, if saying it will help you die in much less pain.”

The head of the intelligence department and the finance minister were impeached, they were sentenced to death without any trial, but all the question and answers here were recorded and will be made public in the morning, with the other news.
