418 Time To Put Those BDSM Skills To Work



I dumped the Merman in front of Emilia and Lisa who looked at the unconscious guy with raised eyebrows.

"So… This is the guy?" Emilia asked.

I nodded, "Yep, he has the Siren Voice magic skill and I believe you know the effects of that skill. He was even trying to use it on me when I was talking to him and attacked me when he realised it had no effect on me."

"So what do we know about him? Did you interrogate him?"

"Err… I did not… I brought him back here after knocking him out. Should I have?"

Emilia smirked, "Oh no, I would have been upset if you did. This means I get to do it myself~"

She even took out a pair of leather gloves that she slipped on before going to her desk and pulling open one of her drawers.

From within said drawer, she lifted out a case that she then unlocked to reveal a whole array of torture tools from within.

"Heh heh heh… Now let's have some fun shall we?" She grinned.

I cleared my throat, "Umm… Are you sure this is a good idea? He has the Siren Voice skill so if you were to let him speak, he might start controlling you… My skill only extends to protect me, you know?"

Emilia stared at me for a good minute before slowly lowering the knife and beating stick back onto the table.

"Ahahahaha~ Em really got so caught up in the moment that she forgot about it~" Lisa laughed shamelessly.

Emilia actually growled at her, "Grrrr… Shut up, Lisa. Hurry up and come up with something to protect me from his stupid mind control voice!"

My Infrid shrugged, "If I had anything like that on me, do you think I would get affected in the first place? I don't have those potions on hand all the time, you know?"

"Hold on a moment… You're telling me there's potions that can prevent this?" I interrupted.

Lisa giggled, "Of course there are~ Didn't I say this before? There's different kinds of monsters that can be found out in the wild. There's even monsters that are able to use charm type attacks so it's vital to bring such potions along when you are going to fight such monsters. Ah~ I guess Aster doesn't need those because of your skill, though~"

I'm guessing this is related to those Pleasure Monsters… Maybe there's actual succubus type monsters or something? I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case.

Emilia then smacked the table with her palm, "That's not the important thing right now! I want to tortu-- I mean, I want to interrogate this guy and yet now I can't because of that stupid skill of his!"

You let your real intentions slip out there, Emilia…

Lisa then hugged me from behind while resting her head on my shoulder, "I mean… If that's what you're concerned about, then just let my darling here handle the torturing~"

Ok first of all… I see you're just going to call her out on the torturing part?

Second of all…

"What? Why me? I never agreed to this! Plus what makes you think I know how to torture someone?" I protested.

"Oh of course you do~ Haven't you already tied me up and tortured me with pleasure just a few hours ago? You have sooooo much talent~ I'm thinking maybe I can ask Madam Nilm to let us use your family's dungeons the next time~"

"No, no, no… This and that are two different things. Also, I'm not going to sexually torture him."

"Oh, the difference only lies in whether the other party is into that sort of thing, Aster~ I'm sure it would be just normal torture for him if you do it~"

"That doesn't even make any sense… You're just saying this so that you can watch me torture him, aren't you?"

"Ehehehehe~ Mayyyybe?"

I puffed my cheeks and pouted at her, only for her to take advantage of that to lean in for a kiss.

It was even a deep one that involved her tongue as well.

She pulled back after thoroughly tasting me, a bridge of saliva connecting between us before she licked her lips.

"Mmmm~ Delicious~ I think I'm quite addicted to kissing you~"

Emilia cleared her throat, "Ahem… If you're quite done with showing off, I just want to say that I'm also in agreement where Lady Ater tortures him in my stead. I'm fine with watching as long as you're thorough."

Ugh… Ok, I kind of know how to 'torture' someone… Remember when I mentioned I had to learn some BDSM stuff for my writing? Yeah, there's some practical lessons involved for that…

What? You thought anyone could just tie up someone in a proper turtle shell bondage without any training? Absolutely no way.

There's a reason why I was surprised Lisa could also do it the first time I went on that quest with her.

I let out a sigh, "Alright… Alright…. But what should I ask him? I'm not familiar with your circumstances and it's not like I can just turn around and ask you about it either while I'm questioning him…"

Emilia thought for a moment, "Hmm… Let me think… Oh! I know! We'll relocate him down to the brig then set up the Privacy Screen for the two of you! Then we'll wait behind the bars and we can communicate through it!"

"That sounds troublesome though… Ugh, fine… I guess it's better than me doing it without knowing anything anyway."

She leapt to her feet, "Alright! Then let's do that! Could I trouble Lady Aster to carry him down to the brig, please?"

"Heeeeh? Em's actually bossing around my Aster now? How bold~ Where was the VIP treatment from before?" Lisa giggled.

Emilia started to panic, "Ah? Err… No, no…. I did not mean it like that. I… Ah fuck it, I'll call someone to carry him there later!"

Lisa then smiled mischievously at me, "Ehehehe~ Asterrrr~"

Oh, I was wondering why she would even tease Emilia like this but that smile of hers told me everything I needed to know.

I reached for her and picked her up in a princess carry like she wanted.

That of course made her squeal out in happiness as she hugged my neck, "Ahhhhh~ I love you Aster~ I love you, I love you, I love youuuuu~"

She even started peppering me with kisses on the side of my face.

Emilia pretended to gag at the sight before she led the way out of her room, stopping momentarily to call over some guards to help her bring the unconscious Merman to the brig.

On the way there, she also freed Mikhail who was still locked up and told him we had already caught the culprit.

He seemed to be a bit confused but quickly left after Emilia told him to return to his duties.

They then dumped Horose, the Merman, into a cell and tied him up to a chair while Emilia went to set up the Privacy Screen to protect them.

Once she was done, I entered the cell while Lisa and Emilia stayed outside the cell to watch. It seems like while they can see outside of the screen, they would not be able to hear anything. The same was for people outside the screen too.

To talk to them, I would need to stick my head into the dome so that my voice could reach them which I felt was a little gratuitous but whatever… I've done weirder stuff before. At least I could still see them so Emilia would be holding up improvised cue cards for what questions I should ask him.

I was a little surprised that she told the guards to leave as well which left us alone with the guy but I figured that Emilia thought the fewer number of people who knew about this assassin the better.

"So… What should I ask first?" I asked preemptively before I would step into the cell.

"Of course I want to know where he kept my money!" Emilia answered immediately.

Lisa then smacked the Nekomata on the back of the head.

She looked a little disgruntled but huffed, "Knowing who sent him would be a start. And we might also want to confirm his goals as well. Maybe he's after something else?"

Ok… I stepped into the jail cell and stood in front of the unconscious Merman, taking a moment to consider how I would approach this.

I looked around and noticed that an entire table of torture tools was also laid out for me. Do they really expect me to use any of this?

I guess before trying anything, I should just go ahead and wake him up first.

Casting [Aqua Ball] to create a small blob of water, I tossed it at his face expecting the splash of water to wake him up.

Except the only reaction I got from him was a soft groan and nothing else.

Ah… I guess that wasn't an effective wake up method since he's a Merfold?

In that case…

I raised my hand and gave him a slap across the face.

"Arghhh! Wha? Huh?" He screamed, his head swivelling around as he woke up in a daze.

"Hey you, you're finally awake," I greeted him.

He narrowed his eyes at me before settling on a frown, "You… I guess I got caught huh… You might as well just kill me because I won't talk."

"Oh, but I haven't even asked my questions yet."

"Hmph, it doesn't matter to me. Maybe if you get down on your knees and suck my dick I would be more cooperative."

…

Wait a minute… There's no need for me to hold back here right? I can do whatever I want with him, right?

Let's see what I have here… Some whips… A lot of candles… More ropes… Pliers… Clamps… Ooohh~ There's even an entire collection of paddles?

Heh, heh… I can work with this~

Better loosen up your buttcheeks… Wait, do you even have buttcheeks? Time to find out~
