The Mist and the Lightning. Part 11 - стр. 5
“Your child is here, and your children are also in a heap of places, in this and even the Upper world. From those peasants whom you raped, seizing their villages, from various whores and slaves! You shit on them, and it doesn't matter what they eat, drink or what they wear.”
Lis was silent, discouraged by this answer.
“I'll figure it out later,” he said finally, shaking his head as if to drive away the obsession.
“Well, of course!”
“Nik, help me buy Marcus out. I'm asking you!”
Nikto sighed:
“Well, why do I always allow you everything, Lis?”
“Will you agree?!”
“I'll try. But I don't promise you anything.”
Nikto returned Lis to Karina. He himself, along with decorated Arel, went below.
“What did Nikto make you do?” Karina asked, looking at his new tattoo on his chest.
“Nothing special. Everything as usual. He decorates Arel, in his opinion, deals with him all the time. Drags him down to his unclean friends. Shows them his slave. He drags Arel, not me.”
“Have you been there?”
“I was a little lower last time, a couple of tiers, no more. There is something like a throne room and many lounges. They all gather there.”
“Nikto has some kind of a palace here.”
“Yes. But I don't want to go down there anymore.”
“As well as me.”
“Let him drag Arel, he definitely dragged him across all the worlds. These are the prince's problems. Let them have fun as they want.”
“And how did he decorate him?”
“Shitty. I don't even want to talk about it.”
“But I will see it later.”
“Well, yes, I don't think he will fix it.”
“What?”
“Fuck, I don’t want to remember this.”
“Li-i-is, what did he do to the prince?”
“In general, nothing special, he put a chastity belt on him, so hard, of course, with a metal tube inside the dick, now Arel can cum or piss only when Nikto opens the tap. On the side where Arel had a brand on his cheek, he pulled out all of his side teeth below and above and cut a hole in his cheek.”
“What for?” Karina whispered, her eyes widened.
“Now he can shove his dick into Arel’s mouth through the hole in the cheek.”
“Oh Gods!” And Karina began to cry.
And Lis got angry:
“Why are you crying? Do you feel sorry for him? Do you still like him?! Did you like how he fucked you? Especially with Nikto, I guess? When they two fucked you, simultaneously in all holes. Did you like it, huh? Arel treated you badly, cut your hair off, and you whine over him!”
“I have no grudge against him, and the hair will grow back. It's just hair,” Karina tried to wipe away her tears. “He's like that because he saw only cruelty in his life. He was never treated well. Therefore, he didn’t learn to be good.”
“What are you saying? Why do you always remember only Arel? Always, when it comes to how someone was unjustly beaten and humiliated, everyone always remembers Prince Arel!”
Lis lit a cigarette, and his face turned angry:
“You remember how his father beat him in childhood, how he was bullied in prison, how unfairly he was treated. But if we compare all the facts, they mocked me no less, and I had to endure a lot of humiliations too! But for some reason it seems to everyone that everything is always in order with Lis! And only the handsome prince endured incredible suffering! Arel had a strict father who beat him and raised him. Well, I didn't have a father at all! And I was not a noble master, but an illegitimate half-breed, do you think I was not humiliated? Didn't they tease me? Didn’t they mock at my hair color, freckles? Arel knew from childhood that he was a prince, the chosen one. I also realized very early that I was worse than others, a waste. He was taught by the best masters of military affairs, I was simply taken into the army. And there the commanders were not ceremonious with me, as I was second class, I remained. Why is Arel justified by the fact that his father was too cruel to him and therefore nothing good came of Arel? Why did it come out of me then? Arel became a criminal, and I, the red-headed half-breed, became the commander. Why? Was it somehow easier for me? Was it?”
