The Goddess Made A Mistake Again-Chapter 51 - Truthful Bones
Kisel lied on the ground as he thought about his place.
’Am I dead?’
’Or am I just in hell?’
He tried to move himself but a cracking sound in his arm immediately stopped him from doing so. Trying the same thing with the other hand, he felt the same sensation reverberating.
’Nope, hands broken.’
So he thought of using his legs but another distinguished cracking sound appeared.
’Well… that does not sound good.’
Finally, with both hands and legs broken, Kisel had nothing else to do but give a big sigh.
"Haah!"
"Crack!"
"Fuck me!" Kisel screamed in pain as even the slightest movement in his chest pained him greatly.
’Seriously, what the fuck is wrong with that guy? Throwing me out like nothing… and how the hell did he catch my knife and when?’
Kisel’s thought process came to an end, as he heard the sound of heavy leather boots crushing the grass and knew his death was close. He sighed again but it only got him another round of pain.
I walked slowly towards the broken fool, knowing the guy probably wouldn’t be going anywhere now. For those that are questioning how I had tricked the guy and got his knife, let me tell you.
Back then right when Kisel went to attack me and Arthur screamed, I used my special eyes… you know the one with the time slowing ability. Actually it’s not that time actually slowed down but more like me getting faster… extremely faster.
In that small moment of time, my body reached an unbearable amount of speed unknown to mankind and I quickly nicked off the knife from the guy.
I guess I was a tiny bit scared when I did that, I wasn’t entirely sure if that would work out or would I be stabbed first… in the end, it was Kisel who was on the ground, bones protruding from many parts of his body.
I look down at the sorry sight, "How’s it going?"
"Just Dandy"
"You know there are bones breaking out of you, right?"
"Really?" He tried to move his head but couldn’t, "No wonder I feel as if I’m getting fucked from all sides."
I knelled down at Kisel and patted his chest, bringing out a painful moan and some cracks, "Why don’t we just stop playing this game and you answer me some questions. If you do that then I’ll give you a quick death."
Anyone in his position would have felt fear and begged to survive or either chose the given choice and end his suffering. Fortunately, Kisel was one of the smart ones.
"You promise?"
"Pinky promise." I said showing my pinky, which wasn’t small. "So the most basic question, what is your objective here?"
"There’s a map… about some legendary weapon that’s hidden away."
"And the viscount has it?" He nodded.
"My job was to get the whereabouts of that map from him and then kill him."
I smiled, "You’re quite cooperative, Kisel. Good for you." I unconsciously patted his shoulder, breaking it and bringing out another bone, "Oops!"
Kisel hissed in pain, "Just ask already."
"Alright then, who sent you?"
"It was the brother, Miel Valorence."
I knew about this already but I still wanted to fact check it.
"What did the guy pay you for this?"
"Gold… silver and other raw materials." Kisel moaned as he felt the pain bury into him. "You don’t happen to have any drug to stop the pain."
"Nope, it’s kinda not allowed to bring such things at such parties."
Kisel dropped his head down in defeat, "Bummer"
"Alright, one last question, what do you know about the current king’s situation?"
"What?"
"Anything new or strange about his lifestyle?"
Kisel’s face turned curious at me before turning thoughtful, "Well no… his still ill and on his bed. Doesn’t see other people that much, other than his inner council. But I suppose this was already general knowledge, so no, I don’t know anything strange about him."
I nodded, he was just the first level mob so he shouldn’t know anything out of the ordinary. Except for him having a large number of members, there’s nothing scary about him.
I stood up, "You were true to yourself and answered all of my questions fairly, so… how do you want it? A chop straight at the neck or anything special?"
"What’s in the special category?"
"I can slice you in half or smash your head."
"Hmm... I think I’ll take the chop to the head." He smiled jokingly as if his life was already forfeited to him.
"Good choice." I prepared my sword and give a straight clean cut, killing the guy.
I know he was a bit off a douche at the beginning, but he earned his right to die by being answering all my questions truthfully.
Wiping the blood off the sword, I think about his words.
’The king is still in bed and only meets with his inner council… seems same as the story.’
’The viscount’s brother Miel, Should I tattle about him or use him?’
’Then there’s the thing about the map… I know a general location of where the map is from the novel but not the precise one. So do I tell it to Arthur and get some of the treasure?’
’No, he’ll probably deny it now that the viscount is still alive. Back in the novel, the viscounts dying words were to protect his daughter and find the treasure.’
’But now with him alive, I don’t think he’ll probably let anyone have his treasure… except for Arthur. Definitely not me though… man, I should have just let him die.’
I sigh as the choices and paths seem to differ and go through way too many ways for my IQ to understand them.
I feel a pat on my shoulder and look down to see Arthur, looking at the headless body of Kisel.
"Don’t worry, the worst is over and the leader’s dead."
"What about his goons?"
"Mostly dead and some fled. The Viscount survived but is in bad condition."
I nod at him before taking one final look at the guy and turning back.
"Henry"
"Yeah"

"Did he say something to you? Anything about who caused this?"
"…No, he only just sprouted insults at me, so I didn’t waste much time and killed him."
