Chapter 634 Knowing the limits
"More than just a hostage in what way? You said that you intend to use me to conduct experiments on the Emperors, or are you going to break your promise now? I know that I am just a hostage in another world now, but you still need to know your limits!" Clear killing intent flashed in Flora's eyes
Robin raised his eyebrows for a moment before he started laughing, "Hmm? Haha, your thinking has gone too far. You are not my type, so don't worry about anything perverted. I also know that there is something between you and the young bull called Aru. This is evident in your gazes and his screams. I honestly don't know how a love story arose between two people of different races on a hellish planet like this, but it is clear that it actually happened somehow. I will keep my promise, I will perform some experiments on you without humiliating you in any way, and you will return to your world after five years."
"It's good that you understand!" Flora calmed down a little, "Thinking about it... What's the deal with these experiments? Don't you have dozens of Demon Emperors under your command? And they all use the fourth stage of the laws as well, why me? What kind of experiments are you going to conduct on me? I will remind you again to know within limits."
"Demons are a race that I have not fully understood yet. During your fight against Amon, I realized that I would not be able to understand the energy pathways in his body any time soon, and even If I did I would be able to replicate it for humans, but you... as a descendant of humans, I can see through you easily. During your short fight, I was able to deduce several things already." " Robin returned to looking at the dazzling city in front of him, smiling, "The experiments will be simple. You will carry out fourth stage attacks in front of me in the manner I ask, That's all. You can continue doing this until the five years are over and return to your beloved, as long as you don't want anything more, of course~"
"Descendant of humans? I am a descendant of red flame dragons! Don't compare me to your worthless race, your kind was there at The Orphan Blood World but were all wiped out before I was even born! " Flora looked down with eyes full of hatred and derogatory. "Secondly... No one would want anything from a little thug like you."
"A little thug? A little one at that?!" Robin turned to face Flora, "You mentioned knowing my limits more than once as well, wait a minute... You don't think you can kill me at any time, do you?"
Flora didn't answer, but maintained a derogatory look at him, a bit of killing intent flashing in her eyes again.
"Hahaha, so this why I've been sensing your killing intent ever since we left Demon City. I thought you were just hating me so I didn't care. Were you thinking about whether you should kill me or not? Maybe the only thing stopping you from trying was your fear of the demons' reaction when they found out!?"
"Isn't this the truth? What keeps you away from death is one slap from me... Don't think that your little trick in the face of Aru's attack will scare anyone. You were definitely hiding some kind of gear, but that kind of gear will not help you against a physical attack!" Flora tilted her head and crossed her arms in front of her plump chest, the confidence evident in her words
And she was really confident of killing him. The only problem is what Robin mentioned, which is that the demons now know about the weak point of the Orphan Blood World. If the news of the death of their *Lord* reaches them, they will certainly not leave anything without taking a bit out of it! This idea terrified her even more after she saw the millions upon millions of demons behind the space portal, ready to storm in at any time!
So Robin's death is literally at her hands, she just doesn't see much point in doing so, not yet at least...
But she does not rule out cutting his throat if Robin tries to do something he shouldn't.
"Haha.. huh.. eh? Why do I feel like you're not joking?" Robin's laughter calmed down little by little until it stopped completely and a look of stupefaction covered his face instead, "Do you think that a weak person will unite this world? Do you think that the demons who forced you to sacrifice your own people will volunteer to serve me because they are good-hearted?!"
Flora stared into Robin's eyes for a few seconds, then looked him down and up before raising her right shoulder.
"Arghhh..." Robin held the bridge of his nose and shook his head in that condescending manner, "I can't continue working with you when this is your idea of me, otherwise you will always think that you have more options other than obedience. I have to change your view of me first."
"I'd like to see you try." A challenging smile appeared on Flora's face, and her slouched stance also turned into a defensive one
Robin shook his head and sighed, then looked around, until finally, he pointed in a certain direction, "See that dagger over there?"
"Hmm?" Flora looked in that direction, even with her sharp eyesight as a level 42 Emperor she had to squint a little to determine what Robin was referring to.
It turned out that Robin was pointing towards the two guards whom he had ordered to leave a short while ago. The two guards were at the beginning levels of Saint's Realm, and under Robin's permission to inform the leaders of the city, they flew away as fast as they could to carry out the order. They had already traveled several miles and had approached the main command center in the city. As for the dagger that Robin mentioned, It is the dagger that the guard was playing with a while ago and is currently tied to his waist
"Yes, I see, what about it? Why did you suddenly change the subject--Eh?!?!" Flora's mocking tone suddenly changed as the scene in front of her also changed
A moment ago, she saw the backs of the two guards flying quickly with the dagger on the waist of one of them, but now she saw Robin floating in front of her with his right hand behind his back and his left hand holding a blade. That blade was touching the pupil of her right eye.
That blade... It was the dagger attached to the guard's waist
The dagger, which was more than 6 kilometers away.
*CLICK* *click* *click*
At this moment, a ringing sound came from under Flora's feet. She automatically looked down without moving a muscle and found metal rings on the floor, all of them precisely cut and from the same point. At first sight, she recognized them. They were the six metal rings that were adorning her ears.
"Keh!!" Flora wanted to scream, but no sound came out, and her body, the body of a Level 42 Empress, froze in place.
Her mind stopped working at this moment, but even if it worked at full efficiency, what could she do? If Robin extends his hand a little longer, the dagger will pierce her eyes and destroy her brain... Is she supposed to gain speed and run back? Use speed to win against a person who traveled a distance of more than 12 kilometers back and forth and cut off her six earrings with precision as if he was cutting cheese, and then found enough time for himself to strike a flashy pose in front of her eyes?!
Robin left her for a few seconds to comprehend the situation before he continued in a cold tone while still staring into her eyes, "Listen carefully, woman. I am a person who loves absolute power without a partner. If you want those five years to go as promised then this will be the last time you challenge me or even hear a tone that I do not like from you... Tsk~ I had to sacrifice the 35th Foundation for this nonsense! If I feel you disrespecting me again, what will be cut off will not be the six rings, but your neck, your heart, your two eyes, your liver, and your Spinal Cord. Then I will return to the Orphan Blood Planet and I WILL bring two or three other Emperors back to replace you, Was that clear?"
*Gulp* "...Understood."
Robin's cold features turned into a gentle smile again, and then he turned the dagger in his hand so that the handle was now facing Flora's eyes, "Good girl, return this dagger to its owner. We don't want him to think we stole it, right?"
"...Yes."
