Chapter 489 Interrogation
"Have you seen enough? This scene isn't suitable for ordinary people."
Lissandra heard the voice again, then she only saw the silhouette of a man appear behind the four stunned victims before they simultaneously passed out and fell to the ground.
She couldn't even react or see how the guy moves due to how fast the silhouette was...
"Who are you? We can discuss things. Can you show yourself?" Lissandra tried to calm herself down. She had already lived for a long time, which made her sensitive to danger. Now, her instinct was telling her that the one in front of her was bad news.
'What is that white light earlier? He slaughtered my subordinates that easily?'
"Me? I don't think it's wise for me to do that. Are you stupid?" Fein chuckled lightly. He was here to locate the base of the Order of the Witches and eradicate them in one fell swoop without revealing his traces.
Well, that's the goal in his mind. Now, he just needs to perform an interrogation of the witch in front of him who he had determined to be the leader after a few minutes of observation. After all, he heard the conversation between the four victims and Lissandra.
Lissandra has a leadership aura on her, and the tone of her voice when speaking with the victims gave it away.
'It seems I don't have a choice but to fight!' Lissandra readied herself for a fierce fight. 'Curse Spell: Ice Nova!'
In Lissandra's hand, a snowflake that looks harmless appeared as she channeled her curse energy in her hands to fuel it. Ice Nova is a curse spell that she had studied when she first became a scholarly witch. It has decent damage, but its merit comes from slowing the movement of enemies.
'Hmmm... It's really different from degu abilities.' Fein squinted his eyes and observed the so-called curse spell. When Lissandra used the spell, he managed to sense a different type of energy. Its quality was purer than degu energy but also has a corrupting attribute.
'Curse Spell: Dome of Frost Guard!' Lissandra wasn't done yet, and she followed it with another curse spell.
Suddenly, an invisible icy barrier that exudes a chill isolated Fein and Lissandra from the outside environment. The ground where they stepped turned into ice and massive ice rocks could be seen everywhere.
'Awesome! A good move to corner yourself.' Fein took out his sword. He doesn't really plan to underestimate Lissandra since he didn't have much knowledge about curses. Though he can't kill Lissandra since he still has to interrogate her.
Lissandra's eyes turned completely blue, her hair turned white rose to the air, and she threw the ice flake towards Fein's direction. The ice flake was too fast that it already arrived in front of Fein.
However... In comparison to Fein's S-rank speed. The speed of the snowflake wasn't even worth mentioning, so it just took one side step on the right and Fein successfully evaded it.
Seeing this, Lissandra clenched her fist. Then the snowflake behind Fein, which he managed to dodge, exploded and enveloped Fein.
Lissandra looks at the mist of ice in the surroundings and at the frozen water vapor in the air that fell to the ground one after another.
"Did I get him? It seems I'm too nervous just now. Did I overestimate him?" Lissandra muttered and decided for the icy mist in the air to clear up.
"That's impressive. You almost got me there, if not for my teleportation. Good tactic."
Lissandra's eyes widened. She felt a sharp blade pointed at her neck. It gave a cold sensation, and the threat of death made her body turn cold even though she was supposed to be immune to cold.
Fein looked at Lissandra, who was cornered with a faint smile on his face. With just one casual push of his sword, he could definitely end her life.
Kassandra swallowed her saliva and dared not to move. 'Who's this guy? Why does he possess such a powerful strength? Is he perhaps one of the A-ranks of the Verdugo family? To save his family member?'
"Now, I ask, you answer. Just be cooperative and there won't be a problem." Fein's expression turned stony in an instant.
"Okay, I'll answer!" Lissandra replied quickly for fear that the blade would penetrate her neck if she didn't cooperate. "But can you say where you came from and who are you? Did the Verdugo family send you here to save that guy over there?"
Lissandra pointed at Carlos, who was lying unconscious on the icy ground beside the three other victims.
"Ohhh... You're misunderstanding something. I'm not here for anyone." Fein could guess the thought of the witch. 'So she thought I'm sent by the Verdugo family?'
"I knew it. It doesn't make sense at all." Lissandra nodded. Then she glanced at Fein. Now that she could see Fein's appearance, she couldn't help but take a deep breath. It was the first time she saw such a handsome man!
"Well, I don't want to exchange meaningless words. So I'll go directly to the point. I'm here to fucking eradicate all of you. Your leader is the reason why my master died. Now, tell me where your base is."
'Huh?' Lissandra didn't expect that the one in front of her was an avenger. Not to mention, it was their leader's fault. 'Why did the leader provoke this monster!?'
The leader of the Order of the Witch, the sole Specialist in their organization who could use S-rank curse spells willfully. She lived for hundreds of years and has numerous names. Such as Erica, Maine, Christine, and so on... Only one person really knows her name and that was Niki... The absolute leader of the Laughing Phantom group.'
"If I answer it, I'll definitely die. But readying your expression, it seems I only have two choices." Lissandra had a bitter smile on her face. "To die miserably, or instantly, right? Honestly, If I answer your question right now. My death is already sure. The leader of our organization cursed us that if someone revealed information regarding the location or details about its goal. We'll die instantly."
"I like talking to a smart woman. Go on... It's better to tell me. Believe me... I have a thousand ways to let you experience what is a living hell."
