Adventurer of the Elf World

"ah!!!"

The cold water woke Shota out of coma, and a pain penetrated into his brain. He subconsciously wanted to raise his hands to block it, but suddenly he felt that he could not move his hands.

Water flowed over his head, and it took a few seconds for his vision to finally recover from the blur. Only then did he realize that his shirt had been stripped off at some point, and his hands were tied and hung on the beam.

When he looked up, he saw a hooded man standing in front of him holding a water bottle.

His consciousness suddenly flashed back, and Shota quickly remembered that this was the person who had been following him just now.

"Who are you? What are you doing!"

Through the firelight burning in the fire nearby, Shota saw that the surrounding environment was gray, and the rough structure looked like an abandoned house.

The brain quickly woke up under the stimulation and tried desperately to struggle, but it was in vain with his hands and feet tied.

When it became clear that he couldn't resist, Shota turned to beg and begged: "Brother, please let me go~ I have all the money..."

But before he could finish speaking, the hooded man threw away the bottle, raised his hand and punched him on his exposed abdomen.

"ah!"

After two punches, Shota lost the ability to speak. His eyes bulged, his mouth opened wide and his tongue spit out uncontrollably, and a trace of saliva flowed from his mouth.

"Are you awake?"

The hooded man raised his hand and pinched Shota's chin and pulled it up.

Only then did Shota look at the strange mask under the hood.

"Tch! Trash~" Xiu casually said with a hint of disgust, and Shota's head fell directly.

Xiu calmly stepped aside, then sat by the bonfire, picked up an iron bar and stirred the fire at will, and said in a calm tone:

"Why do you think the company sent me to find you?"

The scene fell silent, and after a few seconds Shota slowly raised his head and looked at Xiu.

"What are you talking about?"

A soft laugh came from under the mask. Xiu raised his head to face Shota and said slowly:

"Why do you think the company will let you go?"

"I don't know what you are talking about? You must have found the wrong person. I am the person in charge of the company in Joban City. Put me down!"

Shota suddenly became very excited and struggled hard, but it was still in vain as before.

Xiu didn't say anything, just looked at him with a smile on his eyebrows.

After Shota gave up his struggle, Xiu looked to the other side and smiled: "He is looking for the person in charge of the company in Joban City~"

Shota saw a ripple of darkness in the next second, and a person walked out of it.

Using the firelight, Shota could clearly see the person coming and couldn't help but exclaim.

"Kurokawa! Why are you here?"

The corners of his mouth under the mask were slightly raised, and he said, "Are you still the manager of the company in Tokiwa City?"

Shota was stunned for a moment, but it looked like he was obviously panicking at this time.

Xiuya ignored his reaction and said to himself:

"You, Shota, were originally just a gangster on the street. You had done all kinds of petty thefts and were caught several times. However, because you were underage and the crime was not serious, you were only detained for a few days and then released. In Qian The crime you committed is clearly recorded in Hong City’s city records.”

Xiu sneered, and then continued: "But in the past few years, you have done nothing else, but you have developed a smooth tongue. The company took a fancy to your talent and gave you a chance to start a new life and recruit you as a salesperson. You also You are indeed worthy of this talent. Your grades are almost among the top in the company, and the company will give you the rewards you deserve and promote you to bookstore management in Joban City."

Xiu stopped stirring the fire with his hand, looked up at Shota, and said slowly in a very deep voice:

"It's just...is...this is how you repay the company's respect for you?"

I don’t know why Shota felt that those eyes were frightening, and he didn’t dare to look at them, so he roared loudly:

"I don't even know what you are talking about, let me go!"

"You will know..." Xiu stood up, holding the iron bar that had just stirred the fire in his hand, and then slowly raised it and pointed it at Shota.

"What are you doing! No! No!" Shota struggled hard, but he could only watch the red-hot iron bar getting closer to him, and he could even feel the heat emanating from it.

The iron bar stopped steadily in front of his face, and Xiu said a word.

"Do you recognize it?"

"No! I really don't!"

"You will never change your character!" The tone that had been calm just now suddenly changed, and the iron bar was pressed directly on his chest.

"ah!!!"

Shota screamed and tore through the entire space. His body struggled uncontrollably, and soon the aroma of barbecue gradually turned into a burning smell that filled the air.

Kurokawa, who was watching from the side, also trembled with Shota's wail, but he didn't dare to do anything and could only stare.

Xiu's hand holding the iron bar didn't shake at all, it was terrifyingly stable. He stayed there for five or six seconds before slowly retracting the iron bar.

At this time, Shota's eyes rolled up, his face turned pale, and big beads of sweat kept dripping from his forehead. His body seemed to have lost its support. If it weren't for the ropes tied up, he would have fallen to the ground. The muscles on his body were constantly shaking. Also twitches.

"I don't like this, but I gave you the opportunity, but you didn't cherish it."

Xiu casually threw the iron bar back into the fire, walked over and patted his cheek and mocked: "No way~ No way~ You dare to embezzle the company's property just like that? Just now, there are many more to come, let's play slowly~"

When Shota heard this, his white eyes trembled and turned around, looking at Xiu with fear in his eyes.

The person in front of him is not a human at all...

It's a devil!

Devil!

"Tell me~ You won't have to suffer all this after you finish." Xiu sat back in his previous position and picked up a branch beside him and threw it into the fire.

For some reason, Shota always felt like he was burning himself when he looked at the rising flames, and he couldn't help but tremble.

"I... I..."

The shouting just now almost tore his throat, causing him to speak hoarsely now, and he could only swallow his saliva.

Xiu didn't mean to urge him, and raised his hand to pick up the iron bar and tease it in the flames.

When Shota saw this scene, his throat suddenly felt better, but the muscles in his chest kept twitching.

"I'll tell you! I'll tell you!"

Xiu sat there silently listening to his self-narration, and the whole scene seemed to have a strange harmony.

It was just that the iron bar in Xiu's hand was stirring the flames more and more violently.

Suddenly, Xiu jumped up from his position and stabbed Shota's abdomen with the iron bar in his hand without mercy.

Shota, who was not prepared at all, could not help but struggle in pain, and the wailing broke the silence again.
