Help! I don't want to NTR the protagonist!

Chapter 157: 157. Torture

A large bucket of water was poured on the heads of the two people, and ice-cold water seemed to send a shock through their systems, forcing both men awake.

"Phh! What the fuck is happening? What is going on right now?"

"Rise and shine, friends."

The two men looked towards the sound, and all of a sudden, the memories of their last conscious moments flooded back into their brains.

"LUCIUS!!"

Hearing this, Lucius shook his head with a look of obvious displeasure on his face. "There's no need to scream; we have soundproof magic. No matter what you say, no matter how loud you call, nobody will hear you."

Hearing Lucius's eerie words, the hearts of the two men sank. Chris, either unaware or in simple denial, roared back at Lucius.

"Lucius, you've lost your mind! The Montford Family will never let you off! Even if you kill us, they will drag you out and crush you to pieces. Everyone you loved and cared about will be put to death along with us."

Lucius frowned. Although he was never planning on killing them, the pair of twins must have thought this was the case and spoke in anger. Although Lucius still wasn't planning on killing them, their words were still displeasing.

Lucius looked at them and shook his head. "It's no use talking to you like this."

"Camilla."

As Lucius spoke, she walked forward, holding a knife so sharp it seemed to glow in the darkness.

After all, despite all the bravado Lucius showed, he knew his own limitations. Before he took over the body of Lucius in this world, he was a complete and utter civilian.

He may have had the heart to fight and even kill, but something as immoral and depraved as torture was far from the things Lucius was capable of doing with his own hands at this moment in time.

But just putting fear into their hearts wasn't enough.

It wasn't enough to just draw a knife; you actually had to show you could draw blood.

This was the part where Lucius had to take a step back.

After all, despite all the bravado Lucius showed, he knew his own limitations. Before he took over the body of Lucius in this world, he was a complete and utter civilian.

He may have had the heart to fight and even kill, but something as immoral and depraved as torture was far from the things Lucius was capable of doing with his own hands at this moment in time.

Maybe in a few years, when he had assimilated into the world and truly merged with his identity. But thinking about committing such a thing made Lucius feel a little queasy.

Lucius was the kind of person who could only watch gore videos that would randomly scroll onto his feed in his past life, so bloody torture was absolutely above his feeble pay grade.

Fortunately, for times when the boss was incapable, it was time for the assistant to step up to the table. Camilla had been trained as the assistant and complete right hand of the leader of the revolutionary army from a young age.

She was trained in the art of assassination and espionage, so of course, things like torture would also have to be included.

Because of that, when Camilla's name was called, she didn't hesitate to act.

Besides, the people she was torturing weren't some innocent victims either.
