“W-what? He’s trapped in your house??”
Snow planned on using a story to scare Nick, but he unexpectedly already knew Lin Xiao’s movements and reversed it back on her!
Actually, when Lin Xiao barged into his house and destroyed a trap, he already was notified of it, but at that time he was focused on tricking Snow so he ignored it and sent a subordinate to take care of it.
“Snow, I have to admit your brother is quite amazing, not just his strength, but he’s also very smart. You all investigated for so long and couldn’t find out how White Night died, but he was able to find out in not even half a day, what a genius.”
“…”
Snow clenched her teeth and was silent at Nick’s compliments. Seeing that Nick smiled and continued speaking.
“And he’s also brave! He actually barged into my home and destroyed my defense system to try and find something on me… but, he’s too naive! My home is heavily trapped, nine lives won’t be enough to enter… even if he succeeds and enters my room, he won’t find my secret passage and won’t be able to forcibly destroy that steel door and find my lab!”
Nick continued to state the impossibilities to destroy Snow’s last hope.
“Did you know? My subordinate already sent the death squad to your brother?”
“What? Death squad?”
“That’s right! I know your brother is strong and my people cant beat him, but they can at least use their lives to delay him!”
The orders they received weren’t to defeat Lin Xiao, but to do whatever they could to delay him! If they couldn’t beat him, they should harass him, if they fell, they should use their arms to hold onto Lin Xiao so that he couldn’t run!
“My defense system is impregnable, he might not even crack it in a day! There’s also so many people stopping him, how could he get here in time!? He’s probably in the basement trying to figure out how to open the large steel door! Hahaha!!!”
“Nick! Y-you…”
Snow was speechless at Nick’s crazed laughter and could only stammer. Her face was flushed like she was vexed that her lie was seen through, or that her brother had fallen into someone’s scheme.
Nick didn’t seem like he was lying and perhaps her brother was really trapped in his house. But even if what he said was true, Snow wouldn’t believe it! Once she did, then she was dead!
She had no way out, even if it was just lying to herself, she had to believe that her brother would come to save her! That was the only way she would have enough courage to stay standing.
“No, you’re lying! How would my brother be trapped by you? Nick, stop lying to yourself!”
Nick became even more smug and enjoyed her shameful madness in the face of despair. Nick has always hated how Snow was a child acting like an adult with her high and mighty attitude and now that he finally had a chance to get back at her, he had to enjoy it for a while!
“Snow, aren’t you mistaken? The one lying to themselves is you.”
“Nonsense! My brother is right outside! H-hurry up and give up!!”
“Hehe, Snow, who would have thought… in the end, you’re still just a child that hasn’t grown up, when you’re scared, you’ll cry for your brother.”
“Bastard! Stop looking down on people! My brother is right outside! As long as I call for him, he’ll come to save me!”
“Oh? Really? Okay then, I believe you.”
“R-really? Then why don’t you…”
When Snow heard his response, she thought she had a chance, but his words dropped her back to hell.
“Since your brother is outside, then get him to come inside.”
“What? … Come inside?”
“Yes, since he’s outside, he’ll come in to finish me off if you call for him, right?”
“… Are you insane? Are you not scared of dying?”
“Of course I’m scared, but if I can die to a genius like Lin Xiao, I would have no regrets! Hahaha!”
Nick laughed arrogantly and then secretly gathered power to cast his next attack while sternly threatening Snow.
“Snow, listen up, I’ll only give you three chances! You can call for your brother to come in! If he does, then I won’t kill you, but if you shout three times and he still doesn’t show… then Snow, you can go to sleep just like the Goddess behind you!!”
“Three times… giving me three chances?”
Bastard! How was he giving her a chance? He was just humiliating her! Nick knew that Lin Xiao wasn’t there and pretended to believe her to get her to call him in. Once wasn’t enough, he even gave her three chances to make her into a joke.
Think about it, such a pitiful little girl crying for help for her brother who didn’t exist while being penetrated by a blood-red beam…
A sick bastard like Nick would probably be excited by that, right?
Snow felt humiliated just thinking about how Nick was trying to play her like a toy!
What should she do?
Should she cry and beg for her life?
No, she would never do something like that!
She was the Snow Witch, even if she were to die, she would die beautifully with a bang!
“… Okay then Nick, you asked for this!”
Three chances… she still had three chances!
“Brother! Come out! No need to hold back, finish off this bastard!”
Snow clenched her fist and hollered! Her voice echoed in the hall and didn’t vanish until tens of seconds later.
“Strange, no response, could it be you weren’t yelling loud enough? Try yelling louder. Snow, you still have two chances.”
“Damn…”
Snow clenched her fists and took a deep breath and hollered louder than she ever had!
“Brother!! I know you’re outside!!?”
Her sharp voice echoed and made the thick glass shake and creak. No one could believe that a little girl could release such terrifying force in her final moments.
But there was still no response.
“That’s right, just like that! Yell, as loud as you can, you’ll be dead afterward anyway. Snow, this is your final chance.”
“Damn, damn, damn… no matter how loudly I yell, how can I call for a person that’s not here? Just do it! Stop doing these pointless things… third apostle, Nick, I won’t yield to a bastard like you even if I die!”
Snow finally chose to face reality! She clenched her jaws and used her magic to shoot out webs to start building a cocoon around herself.
“Hehe, okay then Snow, you don’t want to play, and I’ve played enough… then let me send you on your way!”
“Black magic, voodoo life claim!”
“Sigh, is it just going to end like this…”
When the beam shot out, Snow muttered to herself and even forgot to finish constructing the cocoon, or perhaps she knew that she wouldn’t be able to stop it and gave up resisting.
“Call me naive or immature… but I still want to lie to myself one more time. It’s better if I say it now, so I don’t leave any regrets behind…”
This time, she didn’t take a deep breath and yell, but she spoke it like she was praying.
“Damn Lin Xiao, you pervert with bad taste, did you know? Your cute sister is going to die here, if you don’t hurry up and save me, you’re going to live the rest of your life in guilt and blame yourself!”
“Cursing me before you die, your personality is really nasty. but… I heard your summons, Your Majesty.”
In that instant, an oracle descended from above.
“W-what? He’s trapped in your house??”
Snow planned on using a story to scare Nick, but he unexpectedly already knew Lin Xiao’s movements and reversed it back on her!
