Chapter 478 The duke’s visit (19)
All of the elves couldn't help looking at each other before looking back with a firm look.
Even if they were in a panic, that didn't mean that they had lost all of their reasoning just yet.
As soon as they heard this, they realized that they had some kind of leverage against me.
I had information that I wanted from them and they had the ability to hold that information from me. As long as they had something that I wanted, then that meant that there was a chance to negotiate.n0Velb1n
It didn't take long before the elves chose a representative amongst them to speak for all of them.
This elf said, "That depends on whether you can..."
Before he could finish, he found that there was a sword already coming at him.
With the rope bindings on him, he wasn't able to dodge out of the way in time.
It was a good thing that I stopped it at the last second, so it only made a cut on his arm instead of chopping the entire thing off.
All of them trembled in fear when they saw how decisive I was.
I just calmly looked at them and said, "I never said that this was a negotiation. I only said that it would only depend on if someone was willing to give me the information that I wanted."
My eyes turned cold as I said, "That doesn't mean that I need every single one of you."
I turned back to look at the elf that had been cut in half on the ground and said, "Since there's already one of you dead, then that means that there's no taking it back. There's no need for all of you to go back alive and I'll do what I need to do to get the information that I want."
All of the elves trembled when they heard this.
This time, when they looked at each other, there was no longer the same camaraderie that had once been in their eyes.
They realized now that as long as one person broke, it would mean that the rest would die...
I didn't stop moving just because the elves remained silent.
I walked up so that I was between two of the smaller groups that had formed and I revealed a smile.
But when they saw this smile, all they felt were chills that ran down their spines.
They knew that this wasn't a good smile and they were right.
I looked at the two groups in front of me and said with that smile on my face, "Let's have some fun with this."
As soon as they heard this, they felt a chill run down their spines.
Seeing this, the smile on my face grew wider as I said, "I'll let you pick who lives and who dies. As long as you can come to a consensus, I'll kill the person that you choose. Otherwise, I'll kill the person that has the least votes."
Then as if I was remembering something, I added, "Of course, that is only assuming that none of you have the information that I want."
All of the elves felt chills run down their spines as they looked at me with eyes filled with fear.
As expected of a person who owned a demon sword...he was a demon himself.
At this point, they were all suspecting that I was a demon in disguise that was just acting as a human because there was no way that humans would be able to come up with such a diabolic idea.
Then after a while, they started wondering if I would actually go through with it.
When I saw this look in their eyes, I went forward and brought the sword up in front of one of the elves. Holding this sword to their neck, I asked, "Tell me, who do you think I should kill?"
Now they realized that I wasn't kidding...
That was when they finally cracked and gave up.
The one that I held the sword up to said, "Spare me and I'll tell you what you want to know."
