It didn't take long for the goblins to return with the semi-conscious Hiiro. Their hands were tied and all the equipment was confiscated by the monsters. Then the Orge cast a curse that made everyone lose their sense of sight.
"Hm, take him to the altar." Said the Orge with a heavy voice. No one knew who the Orge meant, but the absence of a voice of rejection made people think of just one person.
"You can eat the dead." Said again. When the Orge said so, everyone gritted their teeth until it was clearly visible on their faces. Seeing that expression, the Orge simply smiled.
"Cut off their legs and hands, except the three of them." Said again.
After which, they were forced to hear cries of pain from their comrades. A scream that will always echo in their ears and haunt their dreams. The goblins would have their feet and hands layer by layer to tip. Then they will be healed by magic. And the process keeps repeating. Either because of the crude methods the Goblins used, but the pain that those people felt was much greater than it should have been. Meanwhile, when women who do not get torment can only cry at every roar they hear.
"Please stop! Don't hurt them again!"
"Oh, aren't you a good partner? You know, if it wasn't for your selfishness, at least half of you would have survived. Tell me, are you in love with one of those men?" the Orge chuckled.
Arthia could only bite her lips, as there was indeed nothing she could do at the moment. The mana is completely empty. Even with his [Fairy Soul] talent, it would still take a long time to recover his magic. Even with the magic fully recovered, he also had no chance of defeating the monster.
"What do you want." He shouted loudly.
"I want many things, and I doubt you can grant my wish." // There is no reason to negotiate with you, maybe that is what the Orge is trying to convey.
Arthia was silent, but it only showed her weakness.
"But you killed too many goblins that I had to change my plans."
Goblins are more like parasites. They are born quickly, grow quickly, and die quickly. All the relevant information immediately arose in Arthia's mind. Making him bite his lips even harder, until a warm salty and iron taste spread in his mouth.
"Don't-AaHHH!!"
"Arthia don't do that- Arhgg!"
Their screams made Arthia's heart wound wider. Meanwhile, everyone continued to encourage Arthia to reject the offer.
"All right I will do, on condition that you release them!" Arthia shouted with all her strength. His miserable state only made the Orge laugh out loud.
"Ahaha, aren't you attractive? I believe that people value their own freedom more than anyone else. Hahaha~ Ha, tell me, which one of them should I let go of?"
The word was like breaking the last rope that kept the girl's sanity. Make him fall into a bottomless dark hole following gravity.
Looking at the silent girl, Orge's expression grew colder. "Their cage."
"Wait, I'm not done talking! Wait!" a goblin pulled Arthia without listening to the whining of the girl. The other girls were silent, especially Thalia.
Their voices began to disappear from the room, immersed in the long passageway of the underground cave.
"Why didn't you kill them? I know you want to ask that, right?" The Orge stared at one of the Elite goblins who were all staying in the throne room.
"As you say, sir."
The Orge slightly changed his sitting position. "A
Honestly, I feel uncomfortable. Intuition that I always walk all this time continues to give warnings. It's like, my death is so close."
"What does the warning have to do with these people?"
"Have you forgotten that, how did you prepare?"
"Hm, ah, don't let anyone know, not even your subordinates. Just you and me, you understand?"
"Yes, sir."
"Good, what about the village?"
"....."

The screams of Arthur, Percival, Sigur and Steve continued to be heard throughout the day. Makes Arthia lose half her sanity. The three girls sat speechless in their respective confinements with chains of fire tying their hands together.
There was nothing strange if they did not hear a voice from Noril. He can break away easily with his talent. And, maybe he's watching this place, waiting for the right moment.
The day passed, and the night finally came.
with a blink of an eye, all the scenery in front of him changed instantly. Suddenly everything went quiet. At first they didn't realize it, thinking it was an ordinary hallucination. Then, the silence began to turn frightening.
"What's really going on?" Samantha asked with half-dead eyes.
"I don't know..." Thalia said with a pale but flat face.
"Arthia, wakeup. Arthia, yes... " Samantha tried to summon the witch girl. But Arthia still remained pensive, without a sound.
(clangs!)
The loud voice that appeared suddenly startled the two girls, while Arthia started to raise her head slowly. Standing there, was a handsome young man with blue eyes and blond hair. "Thai!" he shouted while running towards the girl. Then he hugged you tightly.
"Court.hur... Arthurian... Arthur!" Arthia was immediately awakened from her daydream, both hugging the young man.
Everyone fell silent as they looked at the two teenagers. Then another familiar voice sounded from a corner. Right now they are in an iron cage reserved for animals, behind a prison cell. That means double confinement. Now the two confinements are open without a single guard, commotion, or strange smell. It was as if what they were seeing right now was not something real.
"So, what's really going on?" The one who said that was Percival who was only wearing ordinary clothes.
"How did you guys get off? And your limbs...?" Samantha asked as she touched her chin, not realizing that the bond holding her back had disappeared.
Thalia looked up at all this weirdness, then she tried to move her hand. And he could do it without any hindrance at all. The girl could not say anything, and continued to look at both of her hands. A red scar was clearly visible on his wrist, but there was not the slightest pain.
"You know something Noril?" Thalia asked in the air.
Noril in his all-black ordinary clothes walked out of the wall. "I don't feel any strangeness, but there are three other people here besides us."
"Enemy?" Sigur asked with short and heavy words. While Steve was standing behind him, it still remained silent.
"Maybe not, I don't feel the slightest killing intent." Noril.
"Should we check it?" Samantha gave her proposal.
"Let's decide that after the twins have finished their business."
