\'This is the last one\'

With that idea in mind, the vice commander kneeled before the young elf who looked conflicted by this whole thing.

Everyone looked at her with a weird looks as this was a rather bizarre scene to look at. Seeing one of the dark elves, who used to haunt them with their tyranny kneeling before them, most of them felt a weird but satisfying feeling in their chest.

"Just like you said, I kneeled before everyone, let me go," She had a rather dead tone to her voice. Her pride and haughty attitude were nowhere to be seen as it was replaced by a humble look which actually looked a little creepy to everyone.

"Good work, you are free, you can go, please don\'t do bad things from here onward," The vice commander\'s face brightened hearing Nikol\'s words.

She stood up from her embarrassing position and tried to run away without even looking back, as she didn\'t want Nikol to change his mind and attack her again.

\'I will pay you back in thousand folds for what you did to me\'

As soon as she turned her head, her previous expression of emptiness and sadness got replaced with a rather ugly expression. She had blood coming out of her mouth from the anger, as she bit her lips so tight to prevent her body from exploding in anger.

She planned to escape this situation and go back to meet Duchess to ask for help. Since they already sent a messenger, she knew that it won\'t be too hard for them to find her. She knew acting all haughty in front of them would only cause her to be killed so she decided to act and throw away her pride just to live.

"Oh, I forgot," Even before she could walk at least a few meters away, she heard Nikol\'s voice again. She thought he was going to say something but suddenly unexpected happened.

She couldn\'t even react as something pierced her chest rather fast creating a puddle of blood beneath her legs with her blood flowing like a beautiful waterfall.

"You can take that when you go back, we don\'t need it,"

The thing that she got pierced by was none other than her own sword, which she dropped when she accepted to surrender.

"Kuhhh~ you lied to me," Tightly holding her abdomen, she fell on the floor. Her life started flashing before her eyes as she felt a tough pain in her chest. Her eyes ain\'t started to get dark every time she blinked until they completely vanished along with her breath after a few seconds Velian talked with her.

"What? I just gave your sword back, unlike you people we have good habits," Nikol\'s words pissed her even more, as she was now confused about whether he really meant to give her sword back or attack her.

"No, *Sobs, You promised to let me go, why did you do this?" Suddenly, she started crying but it didn\'t last long as she released her final breath and died like a flickering candle with her eyes open.

"What a waste, after all that hard work, she couldn\'t even catch her sword,"

Even other girls around Nikol were confused now.

"Did he really mean to give her sword back?"

"But that\'s-"

Emily was a little worried about Nikol\'s unusual behaviour, but she didn\'t really care about how he acted as she just accepted him for who he is.

"Let\'s go back girls, our work is done here," Even without glancing once at the dead body in front of him, Nikol walked back to the wooden dark elven camp to rejoin with his beloved girls.

"Hmm~ why did I kill her like that?" On his way, different thoughts came into his mind but he never got answers for them no matter how he tried to remember.

***

"Aaaaaaaa!"

The cries and wailing of the dark elves filled the whole camp, as one by one got shot in their heads by elves.

"Where\'s that bitch? She told us to charge but she\'s nowhere to be found," It took them a lot of time to realise that they were used as living shields by their leader for her escape.

"Damn it! I will gut her if I find her again," None of them had any respect for their leader. Worse they had no reason to respect their leader. It is fair on their end as what kind of a leader would abandon her own people and use them as bait?

The remaining dark elves looked around the camp only to see the corpses of their fellow kin lying around lifeless.

"We stand no chance, girls who tried to use cursed magic also got killed? Let\'s surrender they will at least keep us alive for information,"

One of the dark elves suggested with a scared face. Even though they brought calamity upon many people when death came to their doorstep some felt like their bladders getting rather weak.

"Stupid, if we surrender they will torture us and try to take information, look at that," She pointed at the tall log of wood which was hanging as a flag. But the special thing about this is it wasn\'t a flag rather it was their former leader.

"That\'s our commander!"

"Look at her face, she\'s smiling even though we are getting killed one by one, they tortured her so much that she actually went crazy,"

The image they had of Nikol\'s torture was totally different from reality. They didn\'t know their former commander Lora was laughing because of the pleasure, she was feeling instead of sadness and anger.

"Damn it, what are we supposed to do then?"

No one could answer her question as none of them had even a shred of hope in their body to survive right now. To make it even worse suddenly, they heard a voice behind them which sounded way different from the normal voices they are used to.

"Oh, you guys are hiding, is it ok if I join you?" This voice belonged to none other than Nikol himself.

He encountered the vice commander who was escaping through the back gate randomly. Originally, he wanted to surprise attack these dark elves from behind but after encountering such delicious prey, he couldn\'t resist the temptation to mess with it.

"Humans!" Shocked by the voice, they jumped back reflexively only to be met with arrows. Some of them get injured but none of them got any life-threatening injuries.

"You guys need to fight a little, why are you hiding and letting others die?" For some, his question might sound like he was concerned about them but under this question, he had a sarcastic and mocking tone hidden.

"Please don\'t kill us, we will tell you anything, please," Losing all hope of surviving, they started to beg for their lives as they were the only group that is left out of hundreds of dark elves in the camp.

"Hmm~ not a bad idea, we also needed someone to guide us, you girls are perfect for it," While he was talking, one of the dark elves touched him and tried to use curse magic on him, but she couldn\'t even react as she was met with Emily\'s fist breaking more than five teeth in her mouth with her hand getting coated in her opponent\'s dirty blood.

"Ugly bitch! Just when he decided to forgive you," She was angry because of her carelessness, as well as the ungratefulness of these people toward Nikol.

"Emily, I don\'t think we need her, well take the other two, girls tie these two,"

The dark elf who tried to attack him went pale upon hearing his words. She didn\'t know why she was so foolish to attempt to do something like that. She at least wanted to curse Nikol and make him suffer but now she regretted doing it.

Elves quickly took some strong vines, which they normally use instead of ropes and tied both hands of the remaining two dark elves and took them, while Nikol also followed them to meet Lydia and Zenda.

But before he do that, he didn\'t forget to advise Emily,

"Emily, don\'t hold back, just kill her and join with me quickly, I know you\'re strong so I believe you," Nikol\'s words were like honey to Emily\'s ears, as she showed a wholesome smile to him.

"Yes, master," If not for blood all around and their rather disturbing topic, this would have been easily recognized as a top-tier romantic moment as Emily had an intoxicated look on her face but this wasn\'t an environment which could possibly give birth to romance.

Right after motivating her, Nikol left to meet others while Emily slowly got close to the dark elf who was trying to get up to fight back.

"I don\'t understand, you should be grateful even if he uses your worthless self as a slave, why are you resisting?"

Hearing her question, her opponent looked at her with a weird look.

"I will kill you and next will be that arrogant bitch who ordered you," She ignored Emily\'s words, as she charge in to take a clean hit.

"I don\'t understand, you piss me off, I\'m doing my best to be his slave yet you\'re refusing it, everything in this land should be his slave even the goddess herself,"

"What? Ughhh~" She didn\'t stop charging even when she heard the most absurd thing but unlike what she expected, she couldn\'t even land a single hit as her ass got pierced by a sharp stone.

"What is -" Her voice slowly faded as she lost most of her blood and went into an eternal sleep with a sharp object piercing her from behind. Emily used her earth magic skill to create a pointed pole-like thing to impale her without even caring about how cruel it is.

"Do you feel it? This is how we feel when he uses his tool to tame us, Isn\'t it really fun?" Her voice was like a witch\'s whisper, as it sounded a little too crazy for anyone with a proper sense of mind.

Unknown to Nikol, he was getting surrounded by rather dangerous and obsessive girls but he had nothing to worry about as instead of them trying to kill him with jealousy, they got together to kill others that went against Nikol\'s words which was an absolute win for him.
