Child from the Dungeon

Chapter 170: Alvitor Ravaging Part 7: Pain

" Duncan, Dun... " Irina cries as Queen Faelivrin stabs Duncan many times.

Blood drolls from the stab wounds, making her cry even more when it happens, while Duncan holds himself, trying his best to stay calm even after being brutally stabbed many times.

"( Duncan, hold yourself. )"

"( This is nothing, compared to your past pains. )" he tells himself while the Queen tortured him out of all people she captured using her plants.

But still, since the Queen wasn't finished, she decided to heal Duncan again as many times as it takes for she wants to see more of Irina's tears.

" That's good. " the Forest Elf Queen says after seeing Irina's tears, she bursts out laughing to see Irina's very expression.

" Your tears, it reminds me of the days after my husband's death you know... " she tells Irina.

" I remembered the moment of sadness I went through after my husband's life ended in your grandfather's sword. "

" Days, weeks I cried as I reject the reality that happened, I detest the very fact of his death, in the hands of a human! " Queen Faelivrin tells Irina after stabbing the healed Duncan again, she pauses her torture for she then approaches Irina in her strangled position.

" Very great, isn't it? " she asks Irina while holding her chin to see her face, she sees her crying face, seeing her crying with a deadly stare towards her, she can sense her trying to increase her Mana but she is too drained to do so.

" To think that my husband's killer will have a descendant that will share my fate, even worse, kukuku! " Faelivrin tells Irina about it.

" Back then, it was said that my husband was finished with one blow of your grandfather's slash. "

" I...um... " she looks at Irina's face, seeing her expression that still thinks that she's on the right side which kinda pisses the Queen off.

" You, you still yourself in the right huh? Fine! " she releases her hold over Irina's chin, slapping her.

" Have it your way then, you probably will never understand for the event had done before you were even born! "

" Even if I tell you the details, it will instead hurt me more than it will hurt you, a risk that I couldn't take. "

" But you, Richter girl... " the Queen tells to Irina.

"On this very day, you receive the very Karma that your grandfather once made, a sin of your ancestor to me that you must pay. "

" And right now, I will make sure you experienced it, this time, I will take your husband to relieve the debt of sin your bloodline has. "

" An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth... "

" A husband for a husband... " the Forest Elf Queen says while creating a [Torturous Thorns] out of her monstrous plant hand, she summons it from herself, preparing to torture Duncan with the greatest pain yet.

" No, no! " Irina says as she sees the Thorns, including the others like Fernando and Agniz who becomes more panicky as the Queen creates it.

" STOP IT, ELF! " Fernando shouts.

" DON'T KILL HIM, HE HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THAT SIN WE HAVE, RELEASE HIM!!! " Fernando shouts, telling the Queen to instead just kill him and his sister for the Queen's very revenge, no need to bring Duncan to this problem, for despite being Irina's husband, he has nothing to do with this quarrel between the Richter House and the Forest Elf Kingdom.

" PLEASE, LET HIM GO! " Agniz also shouts while trying to break free, she couldn't use her fire as the plants cover her whole body, making her unable to release any magic.

"( DAMMIT, WHY!? )" she screams in her mind, trying to free herself from the plants.

While those people begged for forgiveness, the Forest Elf Queen then approached Duncan with her Thorn, she creates it, a different torture tool she personally made for Duncan.

" This will hurt, Duncan... " She calls Duncan's name, after hearing his name from Irina during her previous torture, she finally could call him at ease as if she gets used to calling him.

As she calls him, she then slowly stabs the Thorn into Duncan's body, as it pierces, despite its slow movement, Duncan could immediately feel the pain, the pain that hurts him inside out, as if the Thorn had something else, inside it.

"( This must be the Thorn's Toxin, or whatever it has inside it! )" Duncan thinks right after receiving it

As it pierces him deeper, the thing that must've been stored inside that piercing thorns. Besides that, it could be other factors that are still unknown to even human botanic experts back home.

It hurts Duncan so much, it hurts him not just physically but also mentally, even worse, the things inside the piercing thorns also affect his Mana which makes it chaotic inside him.

" Grkkkhh! " Duncan grunts as he feels it.

" [Toxin Thrusting Thorn] " Queen Faelivrin tells Duncan.

" With this toxin, the cells in your body will slowly be vaporized, as it will melt," she tells Duncan.

" I assure you, that your human medicine will never heal this toxin, for only I could heal it, a thing that I won't give to you. " the Queen says while Duncan grunts so hard, the toxin begins to affect him hard.

" Kahahaha! " the Queen laughs in joy.

" Husband, look at this! "

" I've brought you, friend, you won't be lonely before I follow suit. "

" For this toxin is an unhealable toxin that only I had the cure to heal! " she shouts in full happiness, while the humans around her shout and cry as they see Duncan's tortured state.

Not even the ones around her, Hector, who is still inside his cell could also hear it as he regrets everything. Regret why didn't he make attempts to compensate his father's deeds against the late Forest Elf King, he could've made a retribution or something to compensate the Queen's loss of the King, but back then, he simply didn't.

This causes his son-in-law to have to bear it, despite him being an outsider to this mess, simply because he's his daughter's husband which the Queen finds perfect for a retribution sacrifice.

" I'm sorry, I... " Hector thinks about this, clenching his fists while still can't assemble his strength and Mana.

As the Richter House Head is in his regret state, in the other hand, Duncan is at the peak of his pain, he feels that his body is burning and having a lot of pain he couldn't describe, while still holding on.

" This is your limit now. " Queen Faelivrin says as she then creates another Thorn.

" I will end this for you," she says as she prepares to do so, but before that, before the Queen could bring the piercing to Duncan's very meat.
