《The Villain’s Redemption》The Villain's Redemption
Advertisement
Lucinia expected the Dungeon to be dark and wet, an uncomfortable place for every prisoner. To her surprise, the place was actually very clean. The walls were white, which only made the room brighter. Of course, there was no window in the room, but the lights coming from the bulb was more than enough to illuminate the whole room.
Lucinia fixed her dress before she walked inside the room where they kept Victoria. She immediately saw the woman lying on the wooden bed. A chain was on her wrist, preventing her from approaching Lucinia.
"Why did you bring me here?" Victoria's voice was hoarse, she immediately wondered if it was because of crying or chanting spells. Surely, the woman already tried to escape this place right? "You pushed me and hurt me, and now you actually asked the Duke to imprison me?" Victoria shook her head. "No… the Duke wouldn't do something like this. He is merciful and kind! He wouldn't hurt me."
"He wouldn't," Lucinia uttered. "But I would." She shrugged and look at the woman's contorted expression.
"Are you crazy? I didn't … I didn't even touch you! Was it because you were jealous?" The realization hit Victoria as she widened her eyes. "A woman's jealousy knows no bounds!"
In response, Lucinia only shrugged. She smiled before she said, "I want to know everything about the king."
"Excuse me?"
"You heard me," Lucinia said. "I know he sent you here. Did he send you to harm the Duke? Did you put something in the blood that he had been drinking?" First of all, Mo Li was powerful, but he wasn't invincible. Even she, Lucinia, could cause him some pain. Her ability might not be enough to kill him but…she was certain, it could harm him. This means that other things in this world could harm him too. Just like that flower.

"What are you talking about?"
"I hate it when people act as if I'm wrong. "Alright… she wasn't really sure that she was right. But something inside her — the crazy voices— was telling her that Victoria was sent by the king to harm them.
"I want to know… everything about your task here." Lucinia didn't take a seat. She only stood, her eyes unfathomable as she waited for Victoria to say something. "I will give you three seconds to answer me."
"And if I don't give you an answer?"
"One."
"You think I would really— "
"Two."
"I already told you! I don't know what you — "
"Three." Lucinia sighed before she exerted pressure on the woman.
"AHHHHH! What— STOP!!!!!! STOP IT!!!!!" Victoria clutched her chest, her eyes closed as she gritted her teeth. "Stop it!" she whimpered.
"I am asking you a question."
"Stop… stop it, please… I really don't know what you are talking about."
Lucinia turned silent, but she didn't release the pressure in the woman's blood. She wondered if her analysis were wrong after all. Mo Li clearly told her that he would trust anything that she says. He even told her to trust these voices as this was her brain— the real brain that she had. This wasn't the original Lucinia's voice or ghosts. This was something that she always had with her.
"I told you… please… stop… I told you… I really don't know anything about it."
"And I don't believe you," Lucinia said as she started bluffing. Half of her hoped that she actually got it right. "I know about Zach too." She said. "I know he is working for the King and not the Queen. I also know about the flowers."

As expected, Victoria's eyes became wide. "What— what are you talking about?"
"You tell me." She calmly shrugged, her voice mellow and somehow sweet. Lucinia frowned inwardly. She couldn't deny it. Watching the woman react to her words was making her happy. It was akin to the living proof that her previous assumptions were right!
"You are crazy! Crazy! How am I going to tell you something that— AHHHH Stop! Stop it!" Victoria squealed, tears and sweat can be seen on her face. "Stop it! I really don't know what you are talking about."
"So you really won't say anything, huh." Lucinia sighed. "What about your mother?"
"What?"
"Your mother… what do you think will happen if I hurt her the way I hurt you now?" She didn't miss the fear that flashed in the woman's eyes.
"You wouldn't do that." Victoria shook her head as if her life depended on it. "You wouldn't dare!"
"Why wouldn't I?" Lucinia smiled gently. "You think… I would stop myself from hurting a witch?" she tilted her head and watched as the woman paled. Victoria started trembling as she glared at her.
"You wouldn't dare hurt my mother!"
"And if I will?" Lucinia asked. "Are you going to kill me? No… that was the wrong question." She clicked her tongue. "The right question is; Do you have the capability to kill me? Hmm? Victoria?" She dragged the woman's name on her tongue. "I heard the Queen really hated Witches. What do you think will happen if I cut off your mother's limbs then gift her to the Queen? Do you think she would be worth some… penny?"
"You— How dare you!?" Victoria hissed before she suddenly stood from the bed. But before she could take a step towards her, Lucinia already increased the pressure and watched as the woman fell on the floor. "I — kill you… I will kill you!"
"You think you can?" Lucinia said. "I am a freak of nature, Victoria. You can't touch me even if you want to." Now that Lucinia thought about it, this body is really Overpowered. First was her ability to control blood, and second is… her body's anti-magic properties. Yes, Antimagic. The spells, poisons, and enchantment from witches don't really work on her. "The King should know this… "Wait… Lucinia narrowed her eyes to the woman on the floor. The King sent Victoria here…
No… Victoria's target should not be Mo Li. After all, she can always harm Mo Li back in the mansion. She can always harm him anytime she wanted to as long as he was in the mansion. This could only mean one thing… Victoria's target is not really Mo Li. It was her.
It was her… all along.
