“You! Do not come any closer to me.” he shouted as he tried to glare at her but the panic in his eyes gave his confidence away. He was looking afraid of her.
“I won’t, that is why I use daggers!” she replied in a tone as if she was talking to a fool.
She had already attacked so many times from this distance and was sure that she could kill him easily.
“You! How dare you.” he tried to stand up but another dagger flew over his head taking his soul out of his body.
“I guess, you did not want to live anymore. Your wish, I did not care much.” she shrugged her shoulders as she took out the last dagger when his eyes widened.
He had realised that her marksmanship is perfect and she was not joking when she said that she could kill him..
“Wait.. wait! I only did it to get rid of my father. Now I am the emperor. Everything is in my control. I was tired of his commands and the way he treated me. Like I am just a pawn.

If you do not trust me, you can ask my mother. She would be out there giving statements.” he pointed at the door but she had already seen it.
“What about other girls you have taken a liking to? Used them and then killed them. Huh?” He frowned as there was only one case in the palace where he was late to kill the girl and she told the truth to her old mother before committing sucide.
He never did anything to the old woman because he enjoyed her misery. How she looked at him with hatred but cleaned his shoes and bowed her head in front of him. That was a thrilling experience. But who would have thought that she would snitch!!
“That bitch! I should have killed her too!” another dagger landed on his hands this time bringing a river of blood instantly and he winced.
“That.. I apologize, I was.. I have not killed her daughter. She had come to me.. Telling me that she wanted to sleep with me. She loved me and all. I just accepted her wish.
But when i left, my few friends had taken a liking to her too. I did not know until it happened. I would not have killed her, she was nice!” Hazel felt nauseous. Even now he was only thinking about his lecherous activities.
How filthy he was!
“I told her that I would pay her enough but my words hurted her. She wanted me to go against those higher nobles for her revenge. And then what?
Did she think that i could secure my future position if i would take enmity of all of them?
She was a fool. But I had still wasted my whole day in explaining to her how she could use this chance to be rich and fulfil all her dreams.
And when I came the next day at night.. She was gone and her mother was sitting in front of her body. She was a fool to not listen to me! Why was I getting blamed!
But I was still kind enough to give her mother enough money for her burial. You should know that it was all her fault. And I have not killed anyone.
I.. I can give you the name of other girls and let them go if you want but let go of those daggers first.“ He was trying to act brave but his eyes were already full of tears and his eyes were looking for a chance of escape.
“Hazel, I can help your husband in finding all the secrets of father. It is a win-win deal. I have only helped you with my actions.” she took a deep breath as she used the pointed part of the dagger to rub her forehead.
“Artlight, you can go. But if I find any of this information wrong, I will find you and kill you even if you would be hiding in the depths of hell.” as if the anesty of kind had been received, Vincent nodded and stood up abruptly.

“The name and address of the girls you are talking about!” she reminded him when he nodded and walked towards his table instead of the door.
With trembling hands he wrote the name and all the other details of the girls with much difficulty.
His face was looking ashen while his eyes were staring at the dagger in her hands all this time.
“It is done.” He passed the list to her and joined his hands as if waiting for his freedom when she finally waved the dagger as if asking him to leave.
He did not need to be told twice. With wet pants between his thighs, he ran out of the room afraid that she would stop him again.
The knights who were standing at the distance looked surprised looking at the conditions of Vincent. They were gloating and betting how he must be tormenting and molesting his own sister but he looked like he was beaten.
The dagger was still stabbed in his arm and there were a lot of small scratches all over his body.
“My goodness! What happened to you?” asked the knight with a gasp.
“Did the enemies attack or that blood sucking monster entered your room through the window?” only that could be concluded by them but before they could reach his room, he held both of them.
“Tsk! What are you waiting for, you fools? Can you not see that I am injured and need a physician. Take me to one now.”
