Chapter 244 Kneeling In Front Of A Commander?



"Why... Do you have them?" Elisa repeated, almost in a daze.

"Mmmm... Well," Lin found this to be a pleasant surprise. "Some say Orcs and Elves are related somehow, don't they?"

"I've never heard... Anyone say-"

Bleugh-

"I say so." Lin sneered as his kick connected with Elisa's stomach. "Isn't that enough?"

Argh-

Elisa was left twitching as the leg kick launched her about five steps away.

"Now that felt like a proper hit." The Commander stepped forward. "Since you were keen on making my job harder, I'll be taking my time now, okay?"

Elisa's body trembled as she tried to raise her back off the ground.

Not because of the damage.

Not because of the pain.

But simply because of,

'This... Damn Aura...!'

"I wanted to get it over with quickly, but finding someone who recognizes these eyes... I can be pretty lucky sometimes, huh?"

The Commander took another step closer, and Elisa felt the weight pressing her body down increase.

"See, I'm an Orcish Fiend. Know what that is?"

Elisa's eyes narrowed. She could barely move her neck under the pressure.

"Answer me."

Her lips parted immediately.

A Commander demanded it after all.

"Orcs... Given a Demon's blood... A Demon... Lord's blood."

"That's right. Our whole village was blessed by the Lord see. We were Blessed because of our strength. Makes sense, doesn't it? The Lord wants strong people below him. Allows him to have less work to do. Strength is expected from us. Strength..." Lin took another step forward. "And nothing else."

Kick-

Elisa's body rolled on the ground.

"But I wasn't born strong... No. Instead," Lin brought a hand to his face. "I was given these eyes. I was robbed of the strength my brethren had and was given these eyes instead. Think that's fair? Think that makes it fair?" 

Elisa turned her face and sput blood on the ground.

"I don't remember asking."

Lin let his head fall to the side.

With his shining eyes, he stared.

"You're still talking tough? When you can barely move?"

Elisa lowered her gaze as she clenched her teeth.

'I can't believe... This kind of Status is-'

Kick-

"Who told you you could look down?"

Elisa's body hit the ground and a trail of blood went down the size of her face.

'I can't... Be a burden to them anymore. Not now... Not when they need me...!' She told herself as she fought against the commanding pressure. 'Why the hell... Am I on the ground? Why am I-'

"Oh. Think you can stand? In a Commander's presence?"

Elisa's body froze as the burden increased further.

'I won't... Let myself be...'

Still, she refused to let her knees collapse.

'A burden...'

Even when every bone in her body ached.

'I won't...'

The Commander extended his arm forward with his palm facing down, a malicious smile on his face.

'Be deadweight-'

He slowly lowered that palm, and the weight increased again.

Further and further.

Until the ground below Elisa cracked.

Until a drop of blood left her nose and went down her face.

"Argh...!!"

"How does it feel? Being in a Commander's presence? A Commander who's operating under a Demon Lord's order? Inside their Territory? Can you feel it..."

Lin lowered his palm further.

ƥandasnovel.com "The weight of what it means to oppose us?"

"The weight...? You think this is enough... To keep me... Down?" Elisa uttered as she raised her gaze.

The Commander's smile widened as he lowered his palm even further.

"Kneel."

With all her strength, she fought against the pressure.

Until she coughed up blood.I think you should take a look at pandasnovel.com

"ARGHHHH!"

But eventually,

Thump-

Elisa's left knee hit the ground.

"Well... What now?"

The kneeling Elisa remained unmoving and silent.

"Oh..." The Commander lowered his body slightly. "You passed out already."

Everything around Elisa immediately turned dark as her knee hit the ground.

"That's enough playing around, I suppose." Lin turned away to face the unconscious and lying Monster. "Let's-"

The Commander's hand twitched.

As fast as he could, he rotated his body and threw a powerful punch.

With full force, his Gauntlet connected with the standing Elisa.

Even though her eyes had rolled to the back of her head.

Even though she was unconscious.

Even though she was surrounded by his Aura.

'What kind of trick was that?' Lin asked himself as he stared at the unconscious Elisa whose body had been launched away.

He stood ready and stared.

Something had changed.

What made this even more obvious, was how Elisa was lying on the ground.

With her back against the ground, she lay and...

'Laughing? In this situation?'

Lin found Elisa's movements incredibly creepy and unnatural as she pushed herself off the ground.

"I can't wait... To get it all back..." She muttered.

Using only her arms, Elisa pushed herself off the ground and stood with her back arched.

"Ahh... I can't wait."

Lin's eyebrow twitched.

His lips parted

"Kneel."

"Huh?"

"I said KNEEL!"

"Kneel? Why should I?" Elisa muttered as her body swayed forward.

With her back rounded and her arms hanging loosely in front of her, she directed her gaze towards the Commander.

"KNEEL DAMMIT!"

"You... You're a Commander, aren't you?"

The Commander's Aura flared up as his slothfulness peaked.

Something troublesome seemed to be approaching.

Something that would make his job harder.

And he sooo did not want that to happen.

"Tsk. No need to get heated I guess..." Line whispered to himself "You can barely, isn't that right?"

"Barely stand? Says who?"

The Commander's eyes narrowed.

He extended an arm forward, with his palm towards the ground.

"Kneel."

"This again?"

The Commander lowered his palm, and the ground cracked below Elisa.

"Kneel."

"HAHAHAHA! WHY THE HELL SHOULD I?"

The sudden outburst, unexpected due to the pressure weighing down on her, could almost make the Commander step back.

[The Title "Commander Of Sloth" is screaming out!"]

"KNEEL!"

"You're a dumbass, aren't you?"

Blood was going down her ears and mouth.

"Since when did Royalty need to kneel..."

But Elisa barely seemed like it affected her.

" In front of a Lord? Much less..."

She smiled widely.

"In front of a Commander?"
