Chapter 35: Colt’s Homecoming(Part 2)
"Alright, open it. Head down there and get her attention, leave the rest to me after that," Remarked Colt, before thinking to himself as the maid knelt down and grabbed the handle of the trapdoor, "I need to make sure she's in front of me...the last thing I need it to get locked down there or something. Granted, I haven't seen any signs that she's deceiving me, but you never know...she could just be a really good actor."
"Okay, I can do that."
The maid then lifted the trapdoor up, a loud creak ringing out before Colt stiffened as bone-chilling screams and cries rang out, his blood running cold as a rageful hatred welled up inside him.
"I see, the basement is soundproofed," Realized Colt through gritted teeth, as the maid headed down the staircase below the trapdoor.
"Hm? What are you doing down here? I'm still not done, you Commoner bitch! I've told you countless times to never interrupt me, I've made that quite clear! Or do you want me to add you to my little collection down here too!?" A woman's voice echoed out, as the maid reached the bottom of the stairs.
Colt restrained himself from rushing down there as his rage surged, taking a deep breath and slowly exhaling to compose himself.
"U-um, no, ma'am, I was just-...," Began the maid shakily, trembling in fear, before trailing off as Colt, having heard enough, shot down the stairs and extended out a tendril of blood, sending it shooting out towards the woman.
"What the-...!?" She started to exclaim in alarm, before letting out a choked gasp as the blood tendril wrapped around her neck and constricted tightly, her face turning pale as she clawed at the tendril, but to no avail.
Colt then unwound the tendril as the woman lost consciousness, collapsing onto the floor of the basement with a thud.
"Huh? I...I thought you said you were going to kill her. Why did you just knock her out?" Responded the maid with a dismayed look on her face.
"Calm down, I'm just getting started. I had been planning on killing her quickly, but after seeing all this...I've changed my mind. I have nothing against sadism, I'm quite a fan, in fact...but this is just vile," Replied Colt in disgust, looking around the space.
