Chapter 469 Fate Worse Than Death
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━Crystal bit her lip as she nodded, though she didn\'t say that she was really more worried about the destruction of evidence and witnesses than she was about the \'fate\' of those people.
After all, for those who tried to hurt Emilia… the hatred she felt for them in her heart wasn\'t any less than that of Michelle and the others. Even if Crystal knew that she probably couldn\'t be as cruel in torturing them, she definitely wouldn\'t feel any pity watching them die.
She just didn\'t want to destroy the benevolent and forgiving image she had in Emilia\'s heart, even if she knew the girl would like her just the same even if she knew the truth.
The crimson-haired girl sighed as she patted Crystal\'s head. "My angel is just too kind. Unfortunately… those people don\'t deserve it."
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
As Crystal expected, the \'prisoners\' were definitely not having a good time under Michelle\'s \'care\'.
They had long since passed the stage of wishing to be released or escaping alive, and were already begging for death and release from the depths of their hearts.
But even if they wanted to confess everything, including things they never did, there was no way for them to do so through their gags.
The monster in front of them only took them out when she was pulling out their teeth, and before they were even done screaming in agony, their voices were once again muffled mercilessly.
"Don\'t taint my ears with your dirty cries, they are meant only to listen to the orders of my princess."
Had they known that this was the fate that awaited them in Blue Dawn, they would definitely have chosen death over plunging into this hell.
They didn\'t even have any hopes of the timed explosives implanted in their bodies going off and ending their misery, as those had long since been \'extracted\' by the creature in front of them while she complained about their \'dirty forms\' staining her eyes.
Michelle\'s \'skills\' in \'extracting information\' had clearly grown tremendously since she first took out her frustrations on those who made her life a living hell, even though she only considered this training \'secondary\', with her first priority always being a better maid for her princess.
"Maybe this is my \'talent\'…" Michelle chuckled. \'Someone as filthy as me… although I don\'t deserve it, I\'ll definitely protect and serve the princess for allowing me to stay by her side.\'
Needless to say, the suffering of those who tried to harm her princess… would only keep getting worse and worse.
It had only been less than a day since they were \'captured\', but most of them were already missing more than half their teeth, toes, and fingernails. And this was only thanks to the timely arrival of Dixie.
The dark-haired girl sighed. "You can\'t overdo it like this. Even if they clearly deserve it and should be made ready to talk for the princess, taking out so many teeth at once will make them unable to speak properly. Plus… what if their spittle flies around and lands on her skin?"
The two of them shuddered at the thought before Michelle quickly motioned for the nearest soldier. "Quickly, go and arrange for some face shields. That way, their spittle can stay where it belongs."
As the soldier rushed off, Dixie nodded, impressed. "I was thinking of a glass wall to keep them separate, but that should also do."
Michelle smiled. "Knowing the princess, she\'ll probably call for them in the lobby instead of coming here, so I thought this would be more convenient. Speaking of which, how long will it be before she\'s here?"
Dixie sighed. "Who knows? She sent me here first since she was worried you wouldn\'t take care of yourself and damage your psyche or something, though she\'s probably still having fun with her big sister."
Michelle blushed happily. "Ohhh… although I\'m ashamed, the fact that the princess worried for me makes me feel so good…!"
The dark-haired girl couldn\'t help but roll her eyes. "No regrets for causing me to miss the fun?"
The \'maid\' hurriedly shook her head in denial. "How can that be? I—"
"Miss, the Empress has arrived, and called for the two of you over, along with all the assassins from before."
Dixie gave the soldier who interrupted them a nod as she motioned for him to start untying the \'prisoners\'.
Michelle hummed thoughtfully. "I cut the ligaments of the last three, so they might need to be dragged, oh, and also—"
Dixie couldn\'t help but roll her eyes. "Does any of that matter after you crushed most of their toes?"
The \'maid\' blinked. "Do they really need toes to walk?"
"…"
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
Although Michelle and Dixie got to her location first, it didn\'t take long for the \'prisoners\' that the empress was waiting for to be dragged there as well.
Their condition from the outside didn\'t look too bad. Since Michelle didn\'t want them to stain the eyes of her princess, she had naturally had all the \'uglier\' wounds bandaged, and the unsightly parts covered as well.
Of course, with Crystal\'s ability, she could still more or less tell the truth at a glance, and the girl almost gagged on the spot.
Fortunately, having observed Michelle for such a long time, the heroine had already made some mental preparations for what was to come, or her reaction would have been much worse.
Emilia grinned as she dragged the two girls by the hand. "You must already be tired, no? Just rest by Crystal\'s side, I\'ll ask them some questions, and we can then go to big sister\'s hotel to relax, alright?"
Michelle felt a little shy being treated like this as her \'maid\', but seeing how her princess had already moved on to the first prisoner, she wisely decided to keep her mouth shut.
The soldier responsible for dragging the man wisely reached out under the guy\'s face shield to remove the gag as soon as the empress approached, but before she could get a single word in, the man started screaming.
"I\'llh tehll you everyshiiing! Eeeverythiiing!! Jusht p-promishh... to khill mee afterwardshh...!"
