Sins Paradise: Domination System-Chapter 30: Enticing the Dark Elf
I stepped out of my room and went to the lobby to find a nun who could show me where the dungeon was.
Don't get me wrong. I knew where the Dark Elf was from my <Presence Detection>. The color of her dot had turned from red to yellow, indicating she was neutral. The pill I gave her worked wonderfully.
And there were 4 other yellows in my mansion. I only thought of people I considered friends as my allies. Hence the nuns were indicated by the yellow color on the radar.
One of them coincidentally was near the lobby. Once I went downstairs, I could see her wiping the window with a soft cloth. Due to her height, she had a hard time reaching the top of the window and used a stool to make her higher.
Her green hair swayed left and right with her hand as she worked diligently. Though I could see her laced panties from my position, I pretended not to see them.
"Mia."
"Hya!"
I just called her and she jumped a little, surprised. Fortunately, she didn't fall from her stool. How clumsy was this girl? But she was diligent, so that wasn't a problem, I guess.
Slowly, she turned her head at me while clutching her hands near her chest.
"Y-Yes, Paladin?"
"Do you know where the dungeon entrance is? The one that Garcia used to keep the prisoner."
"U-Umm… That would be that way." She pointed toward the end of the corridor at the wooden door that looked a bit worse than the others. The door was concealed behind a curtain, but I was able to take a peek at it slightly.
Then Mia turned toward me again as she slowly went down her stool.
"I-If I may ask something. W-where is sister Garcia, Paladin?"
Her eyes looked innocent, like what a usual little sister had. Even the way she tilted her head slightly looked rather cute.
Maybe she was afraid that I had done something harsh to Garcia, so I smiled reassuringly at her.
"Garcia is a bit exhausted, so I let her rest. She had just helped me earlier."
Hearing my answer, her face blushed a deep red as she tried to bury it in her breasts. So she wasn't innocent. Good to know.
I chuckled at her reaction.
"Well, don't worry. She will be able to work normally tomorrow." I walked by her and patted her shoulder. "Also, good work."
"Y-Yes."
The green-haired nun seemed happy from my compliment and returned to her usual self. From this, I found that they didn't seem to care or worry that I slept with their colleague. At least I judged it like this because Mia seemed the most innocent among the other four.
Milea was… like that. She even seduced me by lifting her skirt, so she would not mind doing that. Lisa and Lara were a bit of a mystery to me. I should have a talk with them to learn about their personality well.
Anyway, I opened the rather rusty door and was greeted by stairs that led to the underground. This world wasn't really concealed, either. Just a curtain to hide the door that led to the dungeon used as a prison? Ridiculous. I would set a little better concealment after this.
And the dungeon I talked about all this time wasn't the dungeon with monsters or a dungeon Boss. It was just a prison that often existed in the underground area of a noble's mansion. Usually, it was to keep prisoners, assassins, or slaves.
But in the Virtue Kingdom, slavery was illegal, so the dungeon wasn't often used except for the assassins who tried to take a noble's life.
I went downstairs through somewhat moldy and damp stairs. My footsteps echoed loudly with the creaking sound of the stairs before I arrived midway, where the wooden stairs suddenly changed to dirt stairs.
The air was different from when I was on the first floor. It was a bit wet. The wall was also different from the polished mansion. It was rough and had some moss growing on it, truly fit to keep a prisoner.
When I arrived at the bottom of the stairs, I was greeted by a large room with four sections separated by bars. The middle area was a corridor lit by a dim yellow light. Even so, it was dark, and the area behind the bar, the jail, didn't really get the light.
A tanned girl was chained to the wall in one of the jails. Her clothes had all already been taken off, except for her sports bra that covered her slightly large tits and panties, and put in the box near the stairs.
I noticed some small weapons, the green liquid inside a vial, and chainmail in the box, which was probably Sandra's. I took one of the knives, which looked rather rare with its curve, and used <Appraisal> on it.
[Assassin Knife]
A standard assassin knife made by a blacksmith in Sin Kingdom.
As expected, it was also made in the Sin Kingdom. So they were really the ones who sent the assassin to me, afraid of the new Paladin.
Garcia did her job pretty well. The chain that held Sandra's wrists and feet looked rather strong and couldn't be destroyed easily. The metal bars that divided the jails looked solid too.
I approached the bars and saw Sandra's head hanging lowly. Her rough breathing was the only sound that echoed in this jail room.
"Well well." I said with a playful tone as I stroked my chin.
I knew that this Dark Elf was already conscious. Her gesture, which seemed to be ready to move when I stepped closer to her, said it all. The sign on the <Presence Detection> radar was still yellow, so she had lost her intention to kill me already.
"You can cease your act, you know? I know that you're conscious. If you answer a few of my questions, I will consider releasing you."
I waited for a while to see her reaction, but she kept silent.
'That didn't work, huh? Even when I fed her with [Truth Potion] and [Believe Pill], she is still refusing to stay anything.'
As their names suggested, [Truth Potion] made a target to be unable to lie. And [Believe Pill] worked rather strangely. It made a target who ingested it believe what the other people said without doubting any of it.
'She should have believed me when I said that I would release her if she answers my questions. But she didn't say anything.'
That meant her loyalty to the Sin Kingdom was higher than I thought. Maybe that was why there was that requirement if I wanted to dominate her.
1. Make her swear her loyalty toward you
That would be hard. The other two were easy, but this would take a long time.
If I wanted a fast way, I could just feed her [Love Potion] and [Horny Pill]. That way, she would want me even if she needed to throw away her loyalty.
But I didn't want that. Doing that would put me at the level of those bastards from Horizon Online who tried to mess with my life. I would rather die than step that low.
If I wanted to take a girl's heart, I would do it my way. Forcing a girl with the permanent drug such as [Love Potion] and [Horny Pill] was just something trash did.
Even without those drugs, I still could get Sandra's loyalty. [Believe Pill] was more than enough. It also didn't leave any side effects as I wanted to make Sandra my double agent in Sin Kingdom for my future activities.
The way to do that was simply through a lie. I had found something interesting from 'Requirement Appraisal' and I'd like to try it to see her reaction.
"What a shame," I muttered in a low voice as if I was talking to myself.
The Dark Elves' hearing was great. It was better than a human. They could even hear water dripping from a hundred meters away.
Hearing my low voice in this quiet space would be easy for her.
"What should I do? Poor girl didn't even realize that the spy had abandoned her."
Her ears moved slightly as I said that. A grin appeared on my face as I continued in a troubled tone.
"Tomorrow, the spy will tell me everything I need to know. I have no choice but to keep her in this room until she dies from hunger. I don't have any need for a prisoner who doesn't want to cooperate." I continued as I turned around.
The reaction came almost immediately.
"Wait!" Sandra raised her head and shouted. "D-Don't leave me here! I don't want to die from hunger!"
'Got her.'
