The Extra's Indifference

(Light gore)

Criminals were laying on the dirty ground of the slums with misery apparent in their expressions.

Some of them were crying quietly with broken legs, while some of them passed out from excessive blood loss.

But no one was screaming even though they were feeling torturous amount of pain.

It was obvious that, they weren't used to this kind of pain but they were enduring it rather silently.

I looked at my maid, whose white frilly dress was washed with blood, and some brain matters on her shoes that remained after she crushed a criminal's head after he screamed loudly.

'She is a really ruthless one. There was no need to stain her clothes while she can handle them easily. Does she has a kink with blood?' I thought.

'Though this is one of her charms that makes me not discard her. She is a rather reliable pet who does her job perfectly.'

While I was thinking like this, Aria came in front of me and bowed her head deeply.

"You can interrogate them now, master." She said and stood at my side.

And as a generous and gentle master, I patted her head and gently wiped the blood on her cheeks.

"Good work." I said and in return, Aria nodded like a child who praised by their parents

After this, I turned my attention to the criminals.

I needed to interrogate them for information but I didn't know how to properly interrogate someone.

Thus I decided to scare them shitles by killing some of them brutally so that they can answer my questions without too much problem.

Anyway, after killing some of them without staining my clothes, I walked to a criminal that looked like this group's leader and crouched in front of him.

He looked at me with a mix of defiance and lust and after seeing this I understood that this man was an idiot who wants to die.

Though instead of killing him, I crushed his already broken legs with my foot.

The criminal leader was about to scream but he briefly looked at Aria and quickly put his hand into his mouth. Effectively shutting himself up.

"Know your place and be a good dog. Maybe you can live if you do that."

After saying this, I grabbed a handful of his greasy hair and turned his face toward me.

The criminal leader looked at me while blood dripped from his hand because of the pressure of his teeth. Though there wasn't any defiance in his eyes.

"Are there devil worshipers in here?" I asked and slapped him.

The criminal leader nodded frantically without minding my slap.

"Do you know where they are?" I asked and slapped his other cheek.

The criminal leader looked at me and hesitantly shook his head.

"Do you really not know or else you are scared of them while I am about to kill you because you reject my question?" I asked and looked into his eyes.

After seeing his eyes, I concluded that he was telling the truth.

"That is good, then do you know someone that knows the place of the devil worshippers?" I asked and the criminal nodded his head several times.

"That is good too. Tell me more about this guy, who knows the devil worshippers." I said and plucked his hand from his mouth.

The criminal spat some blood on the ground and looked at me with fearful eyes.

"He is our boss, who manages this area of the slum!" The criminal shouted quickly.

"If he is your boss, he must be stronger than you. So what is his rank?"

The criminal paled considerably after hearing my question and didn't speak.

"Sigh…" I sighed and thrust my index finger into one of his eyes and plucked it.

The plucked eye stayed in my finger like a lollipop and the criminal began to scream in agony.

Well, I let him experience his pain without intervening and began to speak after he stopped screaming.

"Will you speak now? Or should I torture you until you speak? Dying peacefully is a blessing that not everyone gets. So think carefully before answering." I said and dropped a few drops of healing potion on his eye, effectively stopping the bleeding.

The Criminal tried to back down in fear when seeing me but I grabbed his throat and pulled him to me.

"I will talk! I will talk! Please don't pull my other eye." He shouted and desperately covered his eye.

"If you just talked when I asked I wouldn't do that you know. I am not a sadist like my dear Aria." I said and shook my index finger that still looked like a lollipop in front of him.

"I am not a sadist, master."

I turned towards Aria with a confused expression.

"Then why did you even torture these men? And you even tortured Anna while all you have to do was absorb her crystals? If you aren't a sadist then do you have some bloody kink? You can tell me I won't judge but I can't promise to realize these fetishes."

Aria turned her face from me and said quietly:

"They interrupted my talk with my master and I judged that they deserved this treatment. As for that bitch, she deserved to die million times, so I am still regretful that I killed her easily."

"It is good that you are honest woman. You really are my perfect maid with the best characteristic for me." I said and patted her head.

Aria's face heated up and began to mumble something but I didn't give more attention to her and turned to criminal.

"Well, began to speak I am bored." I said and tapped his forehead with my lollipop finger.

"Our leader is a mage in his forties. He is relatively weak other than other slum lords but he is a high 6th circle." The criminal spoke quickly.

"Is that so? Are you sure he is 6th circle?" I asked doubtfully and after seeing the nodding criminal, I sighed again.

"Sigh… I can't even properly find some heretic." I said and broke the criminal's neck.

The criminal fell to the ground like trash and looked at Aria.

"Kill the remaining ones. We are going back to the church." I said and Aria began to kill them.

I decided to go back to the church because it was simply impossible for me to kill or threaten a 6th circle mage.

I wasn't some anime or protagonist, who can kill someone that 2 whole ranks higher than me.

Hence I chose to not pursue this matter for the time being.
