Chapter 345: Punishing Nina
Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Gu Mengmeng looked up and her eyes met with Lea’s smiling eyes. Like a gentleman, he stretched out a clean hand to Gu Mengmeng, waiting for her to hand her tiny hand to him, while placing his blood-stained hand behind his back, saying gently, “She is still not worthy of dirtying your hands. How about, you hand this over to me?”
Gu Mengmeng shook her head, looking at Lea then Elvis, “Killing her is the deity’s will, it is destiny. If you guys were to do it, then it would be against the rules of the beast world, and you would have to go on the platform of the deity’s punishment.”
Lea continued smiling, “Listening to your orders is the same as listening to the orders of the deity, and it is destiny too.”
Gu Mengmeng frowned, not knowing what to say.
“You… you are abusing your authority, you are publicly seeking vengeance. I am a perfect female, the darling of the beast deity, and you treating me like this… you… you will be punished by the beast deity.” It was as if Nina was so scared she started shouting and roaring incoherently. However, she did not know that such hues and cry would only make her die more quickly.
Her hand formed into a karate chop, Gu Mengmeng knocked against Nina’s throat, making her cough violently. She could barely breathe, no less talk.
Gu Mengmeng squatted down, looking at her coldly, “Didn’t you know? Beast deity is my Father Beast, my abuse of power and such public vengeance was taught by the people of his family.”
Obviously, Gu Mengmeng was just blabbering nonsense.
However, Nina had believed it…
“Mengmeng.” Lea used his one clean arm to carry Gu Mengmeng up, looking into her eyes, “Can’t you let me be the first to be the first in command to carry out the execution?”
Gu Mengmeng looked into Lea’s eyes, and it was as if he saw a pain and struggle that was difficult to express from those pair of eyes. That only way out… was herself.
Gu Mengmeng remembered what Elvis had once told her about Lea’s past.
He had come from Sauder, which was the tribe of the previous messenger of the beast deity.
He was the Ninth Highness that had been expelled, with reasons unknown…
Hatred had taken over his heart, yet he never mentioned a word about his past.
If a divination from the messenger of the beast deity can set him free, then what was she hesitating for?
Gu Mengmeng stood up slowly and backed off, leaning back into Elvis’ arms.
Steadily, Elvis picked Gu Mengmeng up and positioned her on his shoulders.
Gu Mengmeng lowered her head a little, looking into Lea’s eyes. She stretched out a hand and placed it on his forehead, “As the messenger of the beast deity, I entrust you with the power to execute, to punish Nina.”
One knee on the ground, he used the clean hand to hold up Gu Mengmeng’s tiny feet beside his lips and gave it a gentle kiss while the other blood-stained hand was positioned on his chest, giving that clear white chest a touch of blackish red cinnabar.
Elvis did not let Gu Mengmeng see how Lea executed l, because those obscene images should never have to be something she had to see.
Elvis and Lea exchanged a glance before Gu Mengmeng was brought out.
Gu Mengmeng knew neither Elvis nor Lea wanted her to see themselves being violent, and neither was she desiring violence. From the bottom of the heart, she was unwilling to kill Nina herself too. Although she was a stray chicken, she could have transformed into human form… and if she really saw her die under her orders, she would still bear the blame in her heart.
So when Elvis brought her out, she neither struggled nor looked back.
She only needed to wait for Lea to be back, to tell her what a divination meant to him, and why there was such a complicated, heavy depth in his eyes.
