05 Fear
"Uh, how is this first slot empty?" Reaching the end of the left side, he suddenly realized that there was nothing in the groove where the whip should have been inserted.
"That's right, master." Sofitel hurriedly walked over to Altokun and explained, "What is on display here are the whips of the chief abuse officers of the past. As you know, the abusive institution we are in is not the oldest, so some of the whips are not actually stored here, but only symbolically leave a place. β
"The leftmost vacant seat you see, Master, was originally reserved for the whip of the first Chief Abuse Officer. The first lash was a long whip called 'rage', which was lost long ago and was not found in other abusive institutions. β
"Then this ...... in the third position"
"It's the whip used by the third Chief Abuse Officer, master. The name of the whip is 'mourning', the length is 320 cm, the material is elk skin and antlers, and the core of the whip is the grief of a woman before she dies. If the owner is interested in this whip, he may refer to its appearance-"
"No, no, this one is tragic. So what is this fifth one? β
"The 'suffocation' used by the Fifth Chief Abuse Officer is 215 centimeters long and made of cowhide and white iron, which can make the subject of the attack feel the illusion of not being able to breathe."
"Well, this looks a little clumsy. And the overall length is a bit short. Otokun looked at it for a moment, then shook his head and said, "And what about the next one?" β
"This is the 'resentment' used by the sixth chief abuse officer, 289 centimeters in length, made of the skin and tendons of a wild donkey, and the whip core is the hatred of this abuse officer's old enemy for his life."
"Next."
"The 'severe pain' used by the Fifth Chief Abuse Officer, 257 centimeters in length, is made of steel ropes and tiger bones, and the whip core is the pain felt by a prisoner after being executedβ"
"Why are they all so perverted?" Otokun was embarrassed by the cruelty behind the whips, and was not very optimistic about their appearance, so he could only shake his head in denial one by one.
In this way, he went through the "chaos" with a length of 255 cm, the "exhaustion" with a length of 314 cm, and the "cold" with a length of 203 cm, and then walked to a whip with a black handle.
"Hmm, why is there a thorn on this whip?" Seeing the strange shape of the long whip inserted in the transparent platform, Otokun was very interested, and without thinking, he grabbed the handle of the whip and pulled it out.
"Be careful, host! Will be ostracized! Seeing Altokun's casual behavior, Sofitel immediately reminded, but it was too late.
"Oops!" It was only after he pulled out his long whip that he realized his mistake and immediately planned to let go.
But then he noticed that he didn't feel any discomfort when he held the handle of the whip, so he turned to Sofitel in confusion.
"What's going on? I don't think there's any bad reaction. β
"I don't know, master." Seeing that Otopkun didn't show any painful expression, Sofitel also felt a little confused, "Maybe the rejection is weaker." β
"Weak rejection? From my point of view, I guess I didn't feel rejected at all. Altokun tugged at the long whip from the platform again, trying to pull it out completely.
"Huh? How can this be so long with a whip? β
Realizing that he had dragged the whip handle back for more than three meters without pulling out all of the whip body, Otokun asked in surprise.
"This is the lash used by the thirteenth Chief Abuse Officer, master. The name of the whip is 'Dread', and the total length is 570 centimeters, and you have only drawn three meters of the part now. β
"You say this whip is more than five meters?!" It took another two meters of backwards before he finally dragged the whole whip out, "Why is it so long?" β
In fact, this kind of long whip is not uncommon among the weapons used by abusive officials. Among the weapons used by some of the recent abusive officers, whips longer than ten meters are present. "It's just that in ancient times, the ancestors had limited skills and collected limited materials, so the whips they made were not very long." β
"I see."
"So as a weapon of abuse, the most prominent feature of this 'fear' is not its length, but its excellent performance." Sofitel continued.
"As I mentioned to my master before, the thirteenth Abuse Officer, the owner of this Abuse Whip, is one of the greatest and greatest Chief Abuse Officers in history. Not only did he have a great deal of credit for the management of the family, but he was also extremely strong in terms of his strength as a bully. β
"So naturally, his abusive whip 'Fear' is also recognized by everyone as the most powerful whip in history."
"The materials that make up 'Fear' are copper ropes and keels, and its whip core is made up of a very strong sense of panic. It is said that this sentiment was extracted by the thirteenth abusive officer when he killed his predecessor.
"Wait, you say keel?" Hearing the words Sofitel had just mentioned, Otokun couldn't help but interrupt her, "Could it be that such a creature as a dragon really exists?" β
"I don't know if they exist in the real world. However, in the fantasy world, dragons and all kinds of strange creatures undoubtedly exist, master. β
That is to say...... Did the thirteenth abusive officer or his contemporaries ever hunt dragons in a fantasy world? β
"There is indeed such a legend." Sophie nodded and admitted, "In fact, according to the records of the Abusive Institution, the thirteenth Abusive Officer may be the first person in our family to find a way to other worlds. β
"What an amazing character." Ou Tuokun carefully looked at the whip body covered with spikes and joints of "Fear", "Then where is his cruel whip strong?" β
"The main power of the whip 'fear' lies in the scope and intensity of its effect." Sofitel immediately explained, "According to the records in the organization, when the thirteenth chief abuse officer used 'fear', it was able to reach a range of three hundred meters, and the thirteenth abuse officer once used it to cause thousands of people to fall into a serious panic at once. β
"What's more, the emotional intensity exerted by 'fear' far exceeds that of other abusive whips. It is said that after being attacked by 'fear', no one can resist its effects without falling into panic, not even the heroes of the fantasy world. β
"It's so powerful."
"And the frontal combat ability of fear is also relatively good, and the spikes made of dragon bones have caused heavy damage to many people. However, because of the length and weight of the whip, the thirteenth abuser also complained that it was a bit difficult to controlβ"
"It's not hard to control at all!"
At the time of Sofitel's introduction, Otokun had already picked up a whip more than five meters long with one hand and waved it exaggeratedly.
"Using the power of the 'world' and vector manipulation to adjust the direction, the control of this whip is simply as easy as a hand-"
In the middle of speaking, Ou Tuokun was suddenly stunned again. Because he found that Sofitel suddenly fell to the ground with her head in her arms for some reason.
"Sofitel! What happened to you? Rushing to Sofitel's side, he found that the butler of the Shake S family had turned into the form of Lori, and his whole body was shrunk into a ball and shivering.
"Lord, master......" Noticing that Otokun had come to his side, Sofitel trembled even more violently, "You, can you release that whip first......
Hearing Sofitel's intermittent words, Otokun hurriedly threw the long whip in his hand to the ground, and Sofitel, who was huddled into a ball, quickly stopped struggling.
"I'm sorry, master."
After standing up a little weakly, there was still a frightened expression on the face of the Lolita-like Sofitel, "Just now when the owner waved that abusive whip, Sofitel suddenly felt very, very scared......"
"It's like Sofitel is about to be devoured by something inexplicably terrifying......"
While clasping her arms to describe how she had felt, Sofitel's eyes suddenly widened again.
"Could it be that you are the master...... Master, can you use the cruel whip of the thirteenth lord? β
