“Oi, don’t mess with me. Just give me all of them,” Ares spoke with a solemn yet confident voice.

“Do you want me to kill all of them? You have a golden chance to save two members of your family. Do you want to waste it like that?” Anon asked with a smile.

“Ares, choose me and your mother. Let your brother die; he is no use to us anymore. In fact, he is the sole reason why we are in this situation in the first place. He should bear the consequences for what he did. Just choose me and your mother,” Peter shouted.

“No, Son. He is your brother, and I am your mother. I gave birth to you. You have to choose me and your brother. Let this man die,” Ares’s mother pleaded.

“What sick games were you playing with my family?” Ares asked with a shocked expression.

His mother was telling him to let his father die and save her, while his father was telling him to save him and let his blood-related brother die.

“Well, I just twisted their brains a little and awakened their survival instincts. Now they want to live at any cost. Isn’t that great?” Anon asked with a psychopathic expression.

“You twisted fiend…” Ares murmured in a very low voice.

“I am indeed a ‘twisted fiend,’ but I am running out of time too. So, pick fast or I will kill one of them at random. Don’t blame me after that,” Anon spoke as he started walking towards his father.

“Wait… Ares, what are you waiting for, son? Choose me. I am your father. This monster is going to kill me, Ares. Please choose me,” Peter started crying as he looked at Ares with eyes filled with hope.

“Mother…” Ares spoke.

Anon halted his steps and looked at Ares with a smile.

“You are free to go, Madam,” Anon said as he looked at Ares’s mother.

“T-Thank you…” She said as she stood up and immediately ran towards Ares.

“Now, choose the next life, kid,” Anon spoke.

Ares started to think once more.

“Ares, Son… you have to choose me. Please, I am your father, you bastard. Choose me,” Peter spoke as he looked at Ares with hope-filled eyes.

“I am sorry, Father… but I choose my brother,” Ares spoke.

“You damned ingrates, you will never be-” Crack

Before Peter could’ve said anything else, Anon punched him so hard that his skull cracked, and he died on the spot.

Both Ares and his mother closed their eyes for a moment and opened them after a second just to look at his lifeless face.

Thud

Peter’s body fell down lifeless on the ground.

“Good, so the two members you saved from your family are your mother and your little brother, right?” Anon asked as he started walking towards Oxmaul, who had been sitting in an ideal position for the last 30 minutes.

“Yes…” Ares replied.

“Oxmaul darling, come here. Come to Mama,” Ares’s mother called out to Oxmaul, but he didn’t have the courage to move even one centimeter from his position.

“Hey, Ares… I have one more question for you,” Anon spoke as he started caressing Oxmaul’s head.

“Y-Yes…?” Ares asked with a hesitant expression.

“I did a little research on you…. about 10 years ago… it was the 24th of the 5th month. Did you go to the human kingdom on that night, Ares?” Anon asked.

“I-I don’t remember…” Ares spoke.

“Maybe this will help…” Anon spoke as he suddenly started to increase the pressure on Oxmaul’s head.

“Ahhhh…. Mom, it hurts,” Oxmaul shouted.

“N-No… Please. Ares… Please try to remember…. Please,” his mother requested.

“I-I did… I went to the Human kingdom that night. I remember now,” Ares immediately remembered.

Anon loosened his grip over Oxmaul’s head.

“Good… now how many of you went to the human kingdom?” Anon asked.

“Umm… I think 3.” Ares replied.

“Name your friends, Ares,” Anon asked.

“I-I can’t…” Ares replied.

Anon tightened his grip around Oxmaul’s head again.

“Mooooomm… My head hurts,” Oxmaul shouted again.

“N-No… please. That’s all we did…” Ares spoke.

“Tell me the truth, Ares. If you don’t, this guy will see hell today,” Anon said as he tightened his grip even more.

Crack

Suddenly a cracking sound came from Oxmaul’s skull.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh-…” He started to shout even louder due to the immense pain.

“No, No, No, He is telling the truth. Please don’t do this to my son. Please…” His mother spoke.

“I need the truth in the next 3 seconds or I will pop his head like a damn balloon,” Anon said as he started tightening his grip even more.

“MOOOOOOOOOOOM….AHHHHHHHHHHHHH-” Oxmaul shouted even louder.

“Tell him, Ares, or your brother will die. Please Ares, you have to tell him,” his mother pleaded.

“…but mother.”

“Mooooom… my head is going to burst.” Oxmaul shouted.

“Just tell him.” She shouted loudly at Ares.

“Okay, wait. I did something,” Ares spoke.

“Did what, Ares? Did what?” Anon asked as he loosened the grip.

“… and what?” Anon asked.

“We made a bet to climb the castle in that area, it belonged to the king of that Continent and we didn’t know that.

We started climbing and reached the top of the castle, but suddenly we saw something, we saw two humans sleeping together.

He was the king but we didn’t know.

All three of us jumped inside and started walking towards the humans…. he immediately got alerted and stood up from his bed…”

“Let me tell you the rest of the story, you killed the king with your magic skills.

After that you raped his daughter who was still underaged and you didn’t stop there.

After that you moved towards the queen, you grabbed her mouth and raped her too.

You raped her till the morning and just when you were about to kill her as well, the knight commander walked into the room.

You got scared and started running. Right ?” Anon asked.

“H-How did you ?”
