“We treat prisoners of war very well.”
“Your cell is better than I imagined.” Mino sat up straight, a look of disbelief in his eyes.
The Demon King's castle cells even have soft, large beds! Goose feather pillows! And even private bathrooms and bathtubs!
This is so much better than him finding a patch of grass on the border, wrapping himself in a blanket, and sleeping!
Mino turned his head sharply, his eyes flashing with determination. No, this was a trap set by the Demon King's castle to corrupt his spirit! He absolutely could not admit defeat!
"What do you want to interrogate me about? The army's deployment? The kingdom's secret weapons? The development details of the Round Tower? Hmph, give up! No matter how painful the torture, you won't get a single piece of information out of me!"
"I swear in the name of the hero Mino!"
"Really?" Kleidina blinked. "I don't believe it."
“But since you’re so curious, I’ll reveal it to you… What we want is information about King Kur II.” She said.
“Ota?” Mino was taken aback, then the corners of his mouth gradually turned up: “You despicable demons, you can’t be unaware of this, can you? Prince Ota and I forged a deep friendship in the training camp. At that time, he had not yet revealed his royal identity, and our friendship was built step by step through life-and-death cooperation!”
"You want me to reveal information about humans? Ridiculous! And to ask me to reveal information about His Highness Ota, who is like a close friend to me? You're dreaming!!!"
Mino tilted his head back and said with absolute certainty.
"I knew it!" Kleinna couldn't help but clap her hands and applaud.
"However, we will not give up easily. The transfer of power in the Kingdom of Kur is smooth, but that prince is still young. If any major event occurs that affects his mindset, the entire kingdom's government will be in turmoil. That will be a good opportunity for us demons."
“Therefore, I will interrogate you to find out what is most important to King Kur II.”
Mino narrowed his eyes, gaining a deeper understanding of the demons' cunning and troublesome nature.
However, it doesn't matter.
[Ding—Torture mission generated]
[First stage of the mission: Endure the interrogation of the Demon King's First Scribe, Kleidina, for at least 30 minutes]
[Reward: Removes internal injuries sustained in the previous battle]
The Torture to Become Stronger System—with it, I will no longer be fighting these demons as a hero, but as a resolute torturer, wielding the strongest system!
The Demon King's castle has no priests who can heal humans, so the treatment of injuries is rather crude.
Now is the perfect time to use this reward to restore my physical body and accumulate the resources to escape the Demon King's castle.
The only problem is how to survive 30 minutes of the Demon King's terrifying interrogation... Mino turned to look at Kletina, a sense of unease rising within him.
Kleiner smiled faintly, and the roses in her hair seemed to bloom even more brilliantly.
"What will you use to deal with me? A red-hot iron? A spike piercing my flesh? Or a agonizing poison?" Mino closed his eyes.
"neither."
A pleasant fragrance condensed from the void. Kletina took out a uniquely shaped small jar, poured out some viscous, transparent liquid, and rubbed and spread it in her hands. Soon, her fair and delicate hands were filled with an unprecedentedly rich fragrance.
Klettina spread her hands apart, drawing out smooth, shiny strands that shimmered under the light.
"Hero, please lie on the bed with your back to me, yes, just like that."
Mino had no choice but to cooperate; with his divine power imprisoned, Kletina could manipulate him like a puppet using her magic. So, amidst his bewildered gaze, Kletina grinned mischievously and spoke in a confident, delicate voice.
"I'm going to use my freshly extracted rose essential oil to corrode your skin, penetrate your skin and bones, and make your whole body feel like it's melting."
"In that situation, you would answer any question I asked..."
Mino opened her mouth wide.
The torture in the Demon King's castle seems a tiny bit too sophisticated...
You call this torture?
Isn't this clearly a spa?!
“Ordinary torture won’t work on a brave person with such a strong will as you! We would never use such crude methods of interrogation to humiliate you.”
Sensing Mino's doubt, Kletina sat up and, with a furrowed brow, described the scene in a charmingly naive manner, just like a young girl.
Mino twitched her lips: "Or, why don't you try insulting me first?"
He feels guilty taking such a free reward!
"Shut up," Kleinna commanded, regaining her composure as the Demon King's scribe.
Mino's head was completely immobilized, and then he felt a cool sensation as the cloth on his back was pulled up behind him.
He could feel Kletina, whose hands were wet, pouring more warm essential oil onto her back.
A warm current flowed through my body, followed by the soft touch of fingertips against my skin, and then my palms.
The force started from her shoulders and slowly slid down to her lower back. The force was even and deep. Mino could feel her tense muscles gradually relaxing under Kletina's kneading. Every nerve was stretching and releasing a fatigue she had never felt before.
"Hiss—!!!" Mino couldn't help but gasp.
It's essential oil! She used high-quality rose essential oil!
Mino then remembered that Shadow Fiend's special ability was to extract the purest energy from various materials that directly affected the nerves.
The fragrance of roses combined with its intense and stimulating effects creates a particularly strong sensation as it penetrates the skin, making one feel completely lost.
Mino's eyes widened.
Bu, Buhao!
In this situation, if Kletina were to interrupt the "interrogation" process, his body would probably feel as if ants were crawling on it, and he would be unable to stop the instinctive need to act.
This was a nerve-wracking interrogation! He simply couldn't resist it.
The gentle kneading continued, and an alluring rose fragrance kept wafting into her nose. For a moment, Mino couldn't even tell where the fragrance was coming from.
A warm current flowed through her body, bringing a deep sense of relaxation. Mino no longer felt like thinking about anything, and her entire mind went blank.
Mino's pupils gradually dilated.
I'm...I'm losing consciousness...
for a long time--
“It’s over.” Kleinna’s complex voice rang in my ears.
Mino slowly regained consciousness, opened her eyes, and got up from the bed, feeling refreshed like never before.
Wait, did I confess?!
In that state, I was capable of doing anything...
Mino was startled and turned to look at the demon's expression behind her.
Kleidina touched her cheek, seemingly a little annoyed, but still said admiringly:
"As expected of humanity's strongest hero, he actually survived the entire interrogation process."
"Huh?" Mino blinked.
“I asked you several questions during the interrogation, but you are truly a hero, as steadfast as a rock, and did not waver in the slightest.”
Mino exclaimed "Ah!" again, realizing what was happening.
He wasn't just unmoved; he was so overwhelmed with pleasure that he lost consciousness! And with his back to Kletina, she couldn't see his expression at all.
Mino lowered her head and could feel that the hidden injuries on her body had been fully healed.
If his power hadn't been suppressed, he could have once again engaged in a life-or-death struggle with the demon officials of the Demon King's camp.
That was close... I almost lost everything.
Mino felt slightly relieved; thankfully, the other party hadn't noticed her zero resistance to spas at all. Looking at the frustrated expression on the face of this Rose Shadow Demon and resourceful First Secretary, Mino's lips gradually curled up.
That's the expression... That's the expression I wanted to see!
The corners of her mouth should also be turned up.
[Ding—Second Phase Mission]
[Second phase mission: Kleidina's interrogation was extremely effective. As the person being interrogated, please reveal at least one piece of important information about King Kur II.]
The upturned corners of his mouth suddenly froze on his face.
Chapter 3 His Highness Can't Be a Doll Pervert
What's going on? Wasn't this supposed to be a system that tortures and strengthens you?
Mino's expression froze on her face.
He quickly realized that interrogation is actually divided into "interrogation process" and "confession process," which constitutes a complete cycle.
But what to do now? Should they really confess, handing over information about their good brother, the pillar of the kingdom, Prince Ota, to these evil demons? No, absolutely not!
Mino gradually regained her resolve.
So what if the system offers rewards? He's a man of principle! No matter what the reward is, it can't make him...
[Reward: The dormant holy sword - Artotai]
“I confess,” Mino said frankly.
Kleidina's shoulders trembled slightly as she looked up at Mino's face with a surprised expression.
But her surprise quickly turned into calm and mockery. As the Demon King's confidante, she probably understood Mino's "scheme" and said, "Hero, don't treat me like a three-year-old child. Are you trying to fool me with false information? Heh, that will only damage the trust between us and make the upcoming interrogation less pleasant."
“You’re overthinking it,” Mino interrupted Kletina’s rambling.
"I will answer only one question for Prince Ota. Ask away."
Kleiner was slightly taken aback. She could sense that Mino seemed to be truly being honest, and this was a hard-won opportunity. Her throat bobbed slightly, but what came out was the doubt that had been lingering in her mind:
"why?"
Mino glanced at Kletina's stubborn face and could only offer a perfunctory reply: "If you really want a reason, it's because you seem to be having a hard time interrogating me?"
Kleidina's eyes widened, her hair swaying like fine, swaying branches, creaking and falling one by one from between her strands—a sign of her deep inner turmoil.
She... understands!
She wasn't one of those naive girls among ordinary people who yearned for love stories, so she naturally sensed the perfunctory and indifferent tone in Mino's words.
Therefore, she wouldn't be so narcissistic as to think that the hero Mino likes her.
