Austin killed the old lady without breaking a sweat. There was no hesitation or remorse in his eyes. It looked like he'd merely broken a stick in half!
And from his demeanor, one could tell that it was easy for him even though she was a semi-governing god.
Princess Esther felt a chill of fear creep up on her spine. The man had just killed her master without hesitation.
The smile on Austin's face seemed more devilish than anything she'd ever known.
Princess Esther hadn't expected her prey to be such a cold-blooded killer, who would take her master's life!
She regretted her actions now.
"What's going on with these people?"
Austin turned towards her with the same smile, pointing at the thousands of handsome men who were sitting in the corner.
As he walked close to Princess Esther, an incredibly attractive fragrance crept up his nose.
He could feel that it was coming from Princess Esther. The girls of the elf race emitted unique, enticing scents, which could be considered a sort of seduction mechanism.
"They... they..."
Princess Esther looked a little guilty while referring to those men.
They looked rather weak and their faces had gone extremely pale.
It was obvious that the old lady had somehow absorbed their energy to strengthen her own abilities.
Princess Esther felt guilty because it had been her job to lure these men here.
This was also the reason Austin had killed the old lady without hesitation. If he'd let her live, she was sure to hurt more men for her own selfish needs.
"You... What on earth do you want from me?"
Princess Esther asked in panic as Austin came closer. She could clearly feel his breath on her face and it was sending waves of fear all over her body.
"I want you to answer my questions truthfully; otherwise even I don't know what dreadful things await you."
The evil smile was back on his face. It was obvious that he was toying with her.
"What? What are you going to do with me?"
Princess Esther exclaimed in shock as her heart thumped wildly. She had turned pale and was trembling with fear while stepping back continuously.
"That depends on your answers.
Tell me what your master did to these men, and tell me the truth!"
Austin ordered.
"She needs young men's masculine energy to heal her injuries.
She is the only one out there who can support me, and my only hope of revenge. I have to do her bidding and lure these men here so she can heal her wounds."
There were pangs of guilt and pain in her voice and one could tell she wasn't proud of what she'd done.
"You are a princess of the elf race. With such a noble identity, you should have been showered with love and affection. How come you are completely dependent on such a weak semi-governing god?
You were also afraid that the Elf King had sent me to kill you. Why would he want to kill his own daughter?
You are his daughter, aren't you?"
Austin asked curiously.
"There is something you don't know about me,"
Princess Esther suddenly burst into tears upon hearing this barrage of questions.
"There, there. Don't cry. Calm down,"
Austin tried to comfort her.
He could tell that she was not a bad person by nature, and she probably had good reason for doing everything she'd done.
"The Elf King is not my father.
My father is dead. He was murdered by the Elf King!
He also killed my mother. Everyone in my family is dead.
I'm the sole member of my family now, living alone.
The only thing I desire is to kill the Elf King and avenge my parents' death, but I'm too weak to do that.
I wandered around a lot before I met my master. She promised to help me avenge my family's death after her wounds were healed and she had regained her strength.
The trouble was my master's treatment was done through a special technique which required a lot of masculine energy.
That was why I had to bring as many men as possible to her.
I never wanted to do that, but I had no choice,"
Princess Esther sincerely recounted her tale.
"I see."
Austin nodded.
"If the Elf King killed your parents, why has he let you live until now?
