Maleagant drove Tenebrea's tip down on Alecto's right leg, making the fury scream profanities at him that Leo had never heard before. He imagined they were what the ancient Greeks said to each other during drunken festivals.
"I don't enjoy torturing you either, my dear Alecto," Maleagant said in an apologetic tone. "But if you insist on your silence, I'm afraid I will have to keep doing this…"
He twisted the blade around, causing Alecto to scream even more.
"However, I hope you don't blame me for this," He said while maintaining this apologetic tone that probably no one around him could believe in. "I am but the tool of the summoner. If I had my way, we'd dispense with the maiming and go straight to love-making."
"Leo," Morgana rolled her eyes at Maleagant, "don't you have an off switch for his voice?"
Leo just finished swiping the rune on the ground with his foot, effectively breaking the circle that held Morgana captive.
Greetings, fellow reapers!
I really love this not-so-fun dynamic these characters have. Well, one of them is having fun and getting drunk doing it too. lol
As for the new development, there were quite a few bombs dropped there... some I hope you all find intriguing. Like... who is the Ferryman, and there are two more furies, plus why is everyone always hinting something about Morgana? Just come out and say it already, damn you! — is what I would say if I was a reader. lol
Btw, if you guys want to buy me a cup of coffee for working hard, a gift will go a long way in making that happen. Thanks a bunch!
