Chapter 202 - Let Off Easy?



  There was no loud explosion, but just the poof as the door falls inward revealing someone reaching for what could only be assumed to be a go bag. But hearing the door fall, he looks over, and then after seeing the two of them, he quickly pulls the back with him dashes for the close window to his left.

  Yueliang however takes a step forward disappearing and reappearing in front of him as he says while reaching his arms out a little as if bracing himself. "Stop, I do not want to hurt you if I do not have to!"

    Seeing his young master in front of him, he quickly dashes to the left, and pushing off with his left foot leaps above the bed to get to the other side.

    Feeling like laughing a little, but only sighs instead, Yueliang swiftly reaches forward with his right hand and grabs the mans right leg, then in that very same instance. He pulls his leg to the left, thus causing his body to swing through the air very quickly towards Blake, who noticing this ducks down into a ball immediately so as to avoid getting hit as the mans body flies over her and crashes into the very hard wooden wall before falling to the floor.

    Thereby adding insult to injury as they look down on him, Blake sitting on her heels, and Yueliang just towering over him as he asks. "Lien??? Hmm. So to start this off. Why did you do this Lien? Did I do something that caused you to hate me so much as to attack not only my innocent family but those other innocents as well who work for them? Oh and before you answer, if you decide to lie even once, I will let the high orcs deal with you, if not, then you will only have to answer to me."

    *Deep Sigh. "Fine, but you are looking at this all wrong. For starters it was not that I felt wronged or anything by you, but that your family is trying to keep both you and us locked up like royal hostages as we are still treated well. Either way, my efforts were to free us, allowing us to explore once more just as you once wanted. Has that changed? Also, another goal was to help you with the things you want to do. You want to save your mother, and meet your master once more right?" Lien answers truthfully and from his point of view.

    Hearing this Blake immediately intervenes and says. "So you are trying to tell us that your intentions were to free us from a non exhistant problem, because of wanting to help the young master with goals that he himself has said that he is not yet ready for? You do see the problems with this argument right? Even if you do not see any issues with this, what makes you think that using others to solve this would not come back to bite us? After all, anyone who works for greed is likely to want more later and bite the hand feeding them."

    "That is why I did not use greed." Lien responds and takes a breath before continuing. "I used people who were already wanting to be free from the emperor but just needed a little push to action. It did not take much if I am being honest. Plus I just showed them the weakness\' of this place making them feel even more confident." He says with a smirk, feeling proud of his work.

    Yueliang could not help but laugh lightly as he is listening, because it is just too funny thinking about how easily people were manipulated. Not that he feels this is a good thing, since he does not, but it just sad how people cannot see what he was trying to do thus causing him to wonder. \'They must have all been mortals and low level cultivators to have such low insights, but then again even mortals vary in that aspect. Hmm, maybe just foolish people, oh well...\'

    Either way, Blake, then asks another question. "Fine, since you seem so happy with your choices up to now, tell us. Why have you decided to hide your discoveries in science and otherwise? After all you should know full well how grave a crime that is. No jokes intended." 

    Lien answers. "It was not my intention to hide it, as I was going to release all of my discoveries after this was over one at a time. The reason I did not do so sooner, is to avoid suspicion and speculation. Now, if you are going to kill me will you get it over with already? Or am I free to go?" He asks seriously while looking at both of them, as he is still laying on the ground.

    With that said, Yueliang replies. "I feel that you were truthful, and for that you will have a choice. To get on with this, do you wish for exile, to pay your debt back to those you have harmed, or lastly to accept the punishment of your brethren? Do not worry, as I promised, you only have to answer to me, unless you choose otherwise."

    Lien goes silent as he ponders his choice to himself. \'Why is he going so easy on me? The first two are his punishment, and the last would be letting the high orcs take over. If I go to them, I would likely be killed, although not until they extract all of my discoveries from my mind which is painless fortunately. Hmm, I do not want exile, but death sounds better than being in this cage of a room.\'

    With his thought process finished, he opens his mouth a minute later to answer. "I choose to be punished by paying off my debt to those my actions have harmed. My reason for this choice, is that at least I can be of some help to others which was my intention from the beginning."

    Yueliang shrugs, and says. "Alright, well it was your choice, so have fun with it. Also, to ensure that you do not slack off or try anything, Blake if you would assign one or two people to watch over him and ensure nothing happens. Oh, right, before you do this, let us keep this matter between us three. After all, he made a mistake, he does not need his life ruined for that, as long as he does not make such mistakes again. Then lastly, Lien, you must release your discoveries to your people as part of your recompense, and please do not take my mercy for granted lest I make you regret it later." Yue says while glaring at him as if a cat looking at a mouse as a chew toy.

    Observing this, even Blake feels a chill run through her spine, as she hears his last words. But at the same time she feels much more reassured, as with such actions, she understands that he is treating this matter seriously. So she stands up and starts heading to the door to arrange what she was asked of to do.

    Meanwhile, Yue gets down on one knee and helps Lien sit up against the wall before whispering. "Just be warned, I hate traitors. If you ever want my trust again, you must work hard, and earn it. As for your people not knowing, this is a one time kindness, as I would not want to hinder your future progress, but do not think that you will not be excruciatingly punished before death should you step out of line just once in the future." Then with that said, not even letting the man reply he stands up and walks over to a chair to watch over this person until the guards arrive.

    However, Lien, while leaning against the wall, and hearing such words feels terrified, almost enough to excrete his body fluids into his pants, but manages to hold it in. Feeling a cold sweat over come his body, his clothes quickly get soaked as they wait. Although because he felt he was doing the right thing, he does not feel guilt, and those that died were because of the intruders choices.

    About 30 minutes pass, and then two tall and burley high orcs arrive to take Lien away with scowls filled with annoyance on their faces. Not because they have to miss out on other things, or because of the job, but because they feel a traitor should be killed. But instead, this one gets to live, and even live good life afterward.

    Although when they pick him up to take him away they notice his terror and sweat soaked body as he stares at the young master. Seeing this, they look back and only see a happy smile with closed eyes on the young master form after they look at him. From which they feel scared, and feel they were too hasty in their judgement.. Thus, they quickly take Lien out of the room and make their way elsewhere.
