Shadow of the Abyss

Chapter 31: Slaves

Disturbing Chapter:

The twin guardsm, Brad and Rick, glared at one another in a debate over Ria having only be se in passing. It had be Roy, a young tower guard, who'd spotted her. Who'd describe her with such precision and grace? Every guard had felt themselves salivate. Especially so at the mtion of Luna. The other who mysteriously vanished without a trace.

It had be sev years since they last se a clean woman, one untouched by the Breeders of House Aros. Ones whose skin did not feel sticky or smelt of another man. These two were sure to still be pure. Sure to have be fresh and innoct.

A/N: This feels so uncomfortable...

"You sure Roy saw what he saw? That drunk fool has goofed more times than he's wet his cock." Brad spat, spitting thick yellowish bile from his lips. He snorted, groping his crotch.

Rick, a skinny fellow carrying a deep gash over his right eye, sneered: "Th leave. I'll be sure to toss her to you after I've had my fun. You have always be a shotgun last type of bitch." He poked at the thick leather hide fashioned from the plethora of Black Mamba a.

Brad's expression turned sour as he scuffed: "Piss off. I'm sick of being here. Eight years, Rick! Eight."

"You know the rules. T years, mate. T and were free to leave this hell. The captain has be here for t years. From slave to captain. Quite a feat, eh?"

"Not really." Brad dounced, shaking his head. "They castrated him. Chopped his balls off and scorched it shut. That's not a win, no matter your position. What's the point of freedom if you can't spread it with your kin? The man can't ev get it up."

"For real?"

"No point lying. You should see the Cap drunk. Fuck, it's depressing. He just cries. Ever se an amputee shake from Phantom Pain? Well, he got that shit in his nuts."

"Pssff!"

Listing above, Ria and Altair lay, their small bodies poised for action. Altair had originally planned to execute them but held out. The existce of these m had mystified him. How could there be grown m wh there was an age limit on the dungeon?

He glanced at Ria, nodded, and without an ounce of hesitation. Everything had happed so fast it surprised ev Altair, as Ria's tire being lit up as she flashed. Knowing he could not fall behind and disrupt the sync attack, he kicked off the branch. Shattering the stem as his sword whipped through the unsuspecting guardsman.

The strike was so clean and precise that Rick's head did not fall until he turned to look at Altair with a curious look. He staggered forward, his eyes swaying to the gruesome strike of Brad's head rolling on the floor.

It was not until the sight of red caught up with his consciousness did everything cut to black. His head tumbled from his shoulders with the rainfall of blood painting the grass a beautiful, unmatched red.

Altair

"Oh? I'm not your protector. I'm your teacher. And I'm not ev that. I will not baby you, little brother. If you wish to be a man or command some authority in your lifetime, you need to learn to think indepdtly." And her lips curled down, deeping into cold shards of ice.

" You'll either rise. Or you'll fall with everyone you love. That's life."

Luna gave him a long, measured stare only to vanish back into the shadows as though she were an apparition. This alerted Altair for a brief momt of danger. Goosebumps were quick to prickle his skin and ev faster to spread down his spine as he stilled.

"Don't you know Gods can't interve in matters of mortals? I believe it has something to do with the Shadow Proclamation."

"But they can warn, can't they?" Altair spat coldly. "Or do you not value your life? All it takes is one mistake, one wrong move, and that's it. Everything you work for is gone!" He whirled, shoulders trembling with fury. "Let's go before reinforcemts arrive. We'll alternate betwe g and tree branches to mask our tracks."

Reina watched as Altair took off. Ever since he had returned, she'd found him off. Some days, he seemed happy and mischievous. Other times cold and distant. But there had never be a time he'd raised his voice at her. Never a time where he'd shown such anger.

She pondered no more than a second and followed after him, tracking his every step as her mind wandered off.
