妻子的谎言

"Jira, what are you doing here?" Benihime questioned, a a skeptical look on her face as she slowly looked at the demons surrounding her.

"I'm amazed, you remember my name." Jira said with a smile, he leaped down from his horse and walked toward the Valkyries.

They were immediately on their guard, reaching out for their weapons as they slowly moved toward Benihime.

"Put your weapons down, I don't mean any harm." Jiro let out with a smile on his face as he peeked at Benihime.

"That's kind of hard to believe when you have your men surrounding every corner." Said Benihime, reaching for the small brown bag tied around her waist.

Jira sighed, "And here I thought we were already cozying up." He spoke, waving his hands back which in turn made the demons all fall behind him.

The back flank of the valkyries was free, showing a a promenade that led to the kingdom up ahead with no demon obstructing them this time, but at the same time, right in front of them were about 50 demon armies.

"Lady Hime, should we make a break for it?" Hima asked, she was behind Benihime with her mouth pushed close to Benihime's ear,

Benihime stared at Jira for a while before she started taking slow steps toward her, leaving the valkyries behind her confused.

When she got close to Jira, she stood her ground before she asked, "Do you know anything about that Kingdom up ahead?" Benihime pointed at the direction leading to the kingdom.

A smile touched Jira's lips as he replied, "Oh that? That is my Kingdom, Fiona, intriguing is it not?".

After a few more discussions, Benihime and her team were invited to stay a few days at the Royal palace at least until they got to their main destination.

Benihime explained to Jira that she was heading to a place called the forest of witches, and Jira's response was that he would take them there after their second night,

And thus, the valkyries were about to spend their first night at the kingdom, each one of them being given different rooms.

Benihime's room, on the other hand, was placed just opposite Jira's room. She stood at the entrance, looking at the door before she swallowed her pride and opened the door.

As soon as she walked into the room, she was filled with astonishment as she saw how the inside of the room looked like

She strolled in and began to wander around the room with her hands touching everything she saw.

Time passed and Benihime was laying on the bed in deep thought about what happened to her in the God realm.

As she lay on the bed, Jira suddenly walked in, still dressed in his royal attire and carrying a smile on his face.

"I know this castle belongs to you, but walking in on a lady is not very gentlemanly of you." Benihime enunciated, looking at Jira while she sat right on the bed.

He approached her and sat on the bed with his legs crossed before he voiced out, "I'm guessing you are the leader of this team?"Jira raised a question.

Benihime pushed back, shifting away from him before she responded, 'You knew that already, but for some reason, you still felt the need to ask… what do you want?".

Laughs! "You figured me out, you aren't the same as the rest, are you?" Jira voiced out, "Call me crazy, but I can tell you have something hidden with you… something exciting, I can sense it, a weapon perhaps".

Gasping, Benihime jerked up from the bed and moved away from Jira. She placed her hand on the brown bag as she looked at Jira with an an uneasy gaze.

Jira smiled and stood up from the bed before hd walked slowly toward her. "Come now, you don't have to be afraid… all I simply ask is that you show it to me." He insinuated.

Benihime could see the scary smile on his face as he was slowly walking towards her, "Was that why you brought me here? Because you knew I had the…"...

"Weapon of the gods!" Jira exclaimed, his hand spread as he looked to the ceiling, "The moment I saw you, I knew it right away, you had a special weapon with you! One I know I must have!".

"What are you…talking about?" Benihime muttered, glimpsing at Jira act out his absurdity.

"Don't look so surprised, everything I see and like must be mine, it's just the way it is. I know you have something special with you, and I'm sure as hell not letting you go without obtaining it." Jira imperiled, snapping his finger which immediately transported both him and Benihime to another place.

The place was shaped like a cave, with red wet strings trialed from the ceiling to the ground.

The ground was wobbly and the atmosphere was filled with a red thick mist that made it hard for anyone to breathe properly.

Benihime was disturbed, looking around as she couldn't make out where she was, and to top it off she had no weapon to defend herself with if Jira chose to attack her.

Standing a few feet in front of her was Jira, seated on a red throne with two huge scorpions stationed beside him.

"Welcome Benihime… to my world…" Jira announced with a sadistic smile on his face as he stood up from the chair.

"Whatever you have with you must be something quite important, and I doubt you'll bring it out if it wasn't for a good reason, well if that's the case…" Jiro pointed at her, "I'll just have to force you to summon them.. Kio, Mio… tear her apart!".

The two scorpions immediately charged at Benihime at full speed, jumping with incredible deftness as they moved closer to Benihime.

'Damn it!' Benihime dazed, she slammed her fist together and a blue bolt of lightning emitted from her hand before it gradually spread around her body.

But just when the scorpions were close and she was ready to attack, the lightning suddenly disputes.
