Lexi and Lexa paled, and the soldiers who accompanied her equally felt sorrow and deep fear. Overwhelming hopelessness hung over their shoulders. The soldiers, all felt their bodies go limp, their weapons fell to the ground and soon the pressure, it seemed to seep into their bodies, one by one, all felt their desire to fight back evaporate. Fear and helplessness overrode their senses.
Vexion who appeared as the curvy elf female silhoute to them used her skill and tossed the bodies of Kai, Lee and Sheva towards Lexa and Lexi, their broke bodies fell on top of some soldiers who paled when they realised who these 3 were.
It couldn't be helped. Sheva was brutally beat down and her face was barely identifiable. Lee and Kai well, they were entirely broken up. This was Because Vexion could control how much pressure her aura carried when it fell onto people.
Her aura or the skill that caused this aura, created 3 major effects, fear and hesitation, slow movements, crushing force. This could be amplified depending on whether she would add the push and pull effects of her other sub skill.
In Truth Vexion was taught by her master, "Never be in a position where you need to use more than 75% of your power. That's just pathetic, it just shows your too reliant on your skills, or let me say the totality of your skills. Overwhelming power is when you just need to exercise 30-40 or even 50% of your power, and when you grant someone the compliment of calling them strong it should be when you need to use over 50% but no more than 75%.This will force you to train harder.".
This allowed Vexion to be at a point where she could kill of her opponents. Not with the totality of her skills but with just 20-40% of her legendary skill. This was the principle behind why her skill, or rather the aura caused by it was so powerful. She refined all her skills and still did through continuous training from Dante.
This was why, Lexa and Lexi were in pure fear and unable to even move. Lexa wanted to do something. To help her seniors, she was shocked to the brim, that her seniors had been beaten to such a state.
But she knew there were many strong people in the world. Like the young master and his subordinate who she met years ago.
Yet. To think that there were still so many others who could kill Kai and Lee and leave Sheva who was a pure Ascendent saint at the late stages of the that level in such a state, shocked her. Skills took a long time to level up. That's why her father told her, she can run into many epic tier skill holders but Legendary tier skill holders? They were far and few to many. All those who reached that realm were either born with that skill tier or had to spend tens of thousands of years to get to it.
Hence, while she shuddered endured a complex of emotions. She didn't understand it. Too many things didn't make sense to her. If your so strong, why use your skills for nefarious reasons? Does life hold such little value to people?
Or were there simply heinous creatures who lived for the suffering of others. Lexa trembled in fear and pain as she turned to look at her fellow dark elves who were under immense stress and pain. The aura was suffocating and had brought them into a kneeling position.
Lexi on the look there hand, wondered, why was her father not doing anything? They were about to die! All her soldiers were about to die.
Lexa and Lexi were quite similar in mind and heart. More so after Lexi was saved before she was used simply for sexual relief. When her sister and the mysteries senior appeared. There were an abundance of girls to chose from and most often went for the pure elves. Reason being, dark elves could easily be aqquired even through legal channels. But pure elves couldn't. Hence those kindapapers chose to indulge in filthy acts with the pure elves.
Lexi had thought her time would soon come. But all she did was get touched and beaten once in a while but nothing turlly horrific happened to her. She was scarred mentally when she saw acts of such evil degeneracy, but she was able to keep a semblance of self.
Lexa and Lexi heard the silhouette who had been eyeing them and her fellow dark elves the soldiers with a Malevolent chuckle. She turned to her subordinates; the dark elf mercenaries as said in a voice that was indistinguishable. "I promised you some... Valuable merchandise, there are a few female soldiers so you can do as you please with them, you may also chose one of the two beautifully dressed dark elves. Specially that one".
Lexa and Lexi paled! The aura was bearing on them, forcing them to fall in their knees. Resistance became impossible. Apart from the aura. Some force was externally impeding them from doing anything. Including summoning mana through their bodies to manipulate their skills. The aura was so powerful, their mental strength and desire to fight back was being whittled down . Meaning even suicide was not an option, they became cowards, but the worst of cowards, those who lacked even the mind of self pride to kill themselves. They were like a deer in headlights, in fear and unable to do anything.
What meaning was there in forcing them into sexual depraved acts? What exactly is their goal? We're they not here to take over or destroy the empire. Lexa wanted to speak but before she could the silhoute spoke out again. "Of course you two can decide to take all these mercenaries on, ofcourse I mean let them fuck you all until their pleased, in exchange I'll consider letting your soldiers live"
Lexa and Lexi were known to the soldiers, their exquisite robes already hinted at their Nobility, but the soldiers who served the royal family even the lowest knew of the two princesess. After all, the two were kind and loved their people. Even now here they were fighting the mercenaries with them. Yet. Yet when the soldiers were confronted with the terrifying aura, they were, in simple terms beyond afraid.
Some, both men and women were already pissing their pants. They had never felt such aura. They could literally feel their bodies and bones grinding aginast each other, threatening to break apart. Some soldiers were lovers, hence, when they heard the silhoute offer the soldiers to be used for sexual gratification, they were beyond terrified. Yet again when they heard the two princesses could be used for the bargening of their lives. They wavered.
The "camp" broke out into three.
The soldiers who had long served the empire and didn't even consider letting the princesses be used in such manner in in exchange for their lives.
Those who had only been soldiers for a shorter period of time , whos allegiance was strong and true , yet wavered when extreme times such as this came upon them.
Then finally those who have been soldiers for a shorter period of time and whose allegiance to the empire was flimsy and weak, failing to stand strong when serious situations such as these came upon them .
The old soldiers who pledged allegiance and loyalty to the empire spoke words that clearly disagreed and refused to allow the princesses to suffer such humiliation and pain in exchange for their lives. While those who had been serving for not an equal amount of time and had not pledged their allegiance fully in their heart merely kept quiet and had looked down in fear , shame and uncertainty.
