Arc: Level C [Continued]

April 14- Day 14G

    As I give both John and Angel a glance, they noticeably become more uncomfortable as they look at each other.

    "W-what do we possibly need to discuss?" John asks.

    I smirk. "Your brother, of course. What was his name again..? Ah!" I say in realization. "It's been a while, but I remember. Ben Mender, was it?"

    Both of them jolt as they look up at me. "W-what about him?" John asks with a scared expression.

    I begin laughing once again. "Oh my... From what I can remember, it was actually just you three and your parents, right?" I continue laughing. "So I... I can kill an entire family.. in a day? Every single one of you? There's no way I can miss an opportunity like this."

    John falls to the ground as he bows. "Please at least spare my sister."

    My smile quickly disappears as I slightly glare at him. After a few seconds, I get out of my seat and walk closer to him.

    He continues bowing for a few more seconds before slowly looking up at me. Though before he can do that, I put my left boot over his head, and push it back down to the floor. Angel jolts before she slowly looks up at me.

    "I didn't expect you... to be that type of person, John. After throwing your brother away, I didn't know you would want to save her." I glance up at his sister, causing her to quickly move back. I let out a scoff before looking back down.

    "W-we didn't want Ben to be killed!" he exclaims with a slight panic being heard in his voice.

    "R-right! Our parents... our parents... were the ones that did it."

    I look at them for a couple of seconds before smirking and letting my foot off of his head. "And why did they do that?"

    They glance at each other. "We... we don't know. They felt the need... to kill him," the brother responds.

    I nod my head with a smile before taking out my arm mounted sword, and glancing at it. They jolt once I do so, and look at me, then the sword.

    "You know, I wonder why I didn't see your names in the level C rouge list. You guys are for sure rogues." I smirk while stroking the sword. "So guys must have been rogues since you guys were level Ds. So your information would be in the level D list since that's the last time you did your registration." I look up at them as they continue to look at me. "Don't be shy. Ask the question you have."

    John hesitates, though begins to ask a question. "Y-you aren't registered either, right? Which is why people are unable to find your information in the registry."

    I begin laughing as I nod my head. "Mhm. You're right. But I'm sure we're not here to talk about me." I lightly chuckle before walking closer to John, and gently putting my hand under his chin. "You know, John, you know much about me, and that's okay..." I smile. "But you should know that I don't like people lying to me."

    His expression noticeably chances to fear as we continue to exchange looks. "I can tell your heart must be racing. Though that can come from fear alone, not deception. But your eyes... your eyes alone is telling me... that you're lying to me."

    He attempts to move from my grip as his eyes widen, though following a smirk, I use Zarith's shards, and allow them to grow from the floor to both of John's palms. As he screams in pain, I smirk as I continue to look in his eyes.
