Stuck in a Chinese novel

=====

"Ra*e and Necrop*ilia. Now that\'s a combination you don\'t see every day." Wei Jun said as he read the file in his hands. The habit that Hen Zu had before his erectile dysfunction was cured was just torture and murder but after he was cured, he did many nefarious things to the women.

"You want to know how I know all of this?" Wei Jun asked, staring into the frightened eyes of Hen Zu who could do nothing but let out muffled noises. "What kind of idiot, leaves a record of his deeds in the very place he is committing the said crime at? That\'s like giving the police a full-cooked spicy turkey on Thanksgiving. It\'s every policeman\'s wet dream to find evidence so easily."

Wei Jun berated Hen Zu for his criminal choices. But Hen Zu wasn\'t a seasoned criminal, he was a soldier and then, thanks to the military, a government official. The most he knew about the human body was cutting one, how to erase the traces, was something he hadn\'t learned in any way. As for the record, it was his way of pleasuring himself.

Wei Jun stared straight into the eyes of Hen Zu before he said, "But, I\'m not one to berate you. I mean, in the olden days I wouldn\'t waste time like this."

He then came to Hen Zu\'s side and said, "I would have cut you up, harvested the organs I need to frame someone, and then melted the remains in sulfuric acid. All the while you were unconscious."

As Wei Jun told Hen Zu his intentions, Hen Zu could do nothing but struggle and let out more muffled noises and moans.

"It\'s no use. I intend to let you die without letting you hear your voice." Wei Jun said before he returned to the previous topic, "Now as I was saying, normally I would have just killed you instead of wasting time like this but I also happened to find something in your bucket list of targets."

Wei Jun pulled out a piece of paper and began to read the names out loud, "Wol Hi, Zheng Ge, Lin Ruan, Liu Yu, Yan Wi, and finally, Xia Lu."

As Wei Jun read the last name, something stirred inside of him. He wanted to kill this man in the most horrifying ways possible. Though his sister was also on the list, the anger didn\'t come because of that. Lin Ruan was capable of taking care of herself. However, Xia Lu was weak, not only that, but her uncle was trying very hard to do something to her.

A question arose in Wei Jun\'s head instinctively, "What if he was going to do this?"

The anger when he picked up the list got to the point that he decided to not kill the old man in that basement but take his time, slowly and painfully killing him.

That was when another thing happened. Something that had only happened once before. When he received the main quest.

[A side quest has arrived]

[The Anger of the Invader]

[Difficulty: D+]

[Description: Someone has nefarious thoughts about someone you find dear to your being. Although such plans may never come to be, the thought of something coveting that belongs to the invader is a sin far worse than any.

Such a sinner has to be punished painfully and with the fear that he has never felt before. Let him know that the fear of the god is nothing before the fear of the invader.

Task: Punish Hen Zu painfully.

Additionally: To pass the quest, the fear scale must be at least forty. Different rewards for different scales of fear your victim feels before death.

Punishment: None]

[Fear scale: 32%]

The quest wasn\'t difficult at all. Hen Zu was already scared enough from just talk that Wei Jun had almost passed the quest. But the quest didn\'t matter to him in the first place. Wei Jun wanted to inflict an unimaginable amount of pain on Hen Zu anyway no matter what. The quest was just an excuse. Even if there had been no quest, Wei Jun would have still done the same.

Now he simply had a reward as well.

Wei Jun then moved to the south of the table where Hen Zu\'s legs were. Wei Jun took a marker and began to draw a line starting from Hen Zu\'s feet, along with his thigh, his waist, then his chest, and his left arm. He moved to the other side and did the same to the right part of Hen Zu\'s body while he said, "Since you have also done this many times, you should what I\'m doing right now.

While I am inflicting fear in you, I am also making you remember all the wrong things you\'ve done in your life." He paused as he moved to his waist to join both the lines together.

He then continued, "All I know about you is from the journals you wrote but such darkness doesn\'t just appear one day. I doubt you were a good soldier in the army. Maybe your misfortune about the manly goods wasn\'t a heroic reason but simply you getting what you deserved."

Wei Jun finished drawing the lines all over Hen Zu\'s body as if a surgeon drawing the operative lines on his patient. "Now, not for a moment think that I judge you, I have seen darkness and done some dark things myself so no, in no way do I criticize you for doing what you did. It wouldn\'t be wrong to say I\'ve done worse. Of course, in my case, the people deserved it or they were just in my way."

Wei Jun finally finished as he saw the meter had already passed 56%, reaching the bare minimum to finish the quest and he hadn\'t even started yet.

"Well, let\'s not talk anymore, and now let\'s listen. As I listen to the mechanical sound of the blade cutting through your limbs while you feel it and you listen to the sound of pain. And yeah, at unmeasurable levels of pain, you can hear it." Wei Jun came close to Hen Zu\'s ear and whispered, "It\'s almost melodious."

Wei Jun finally ended his talk, picked up the chain blade, and turned it on. It whirred and Wei Jun brought it close to the first incision point. The ankle of Hen Zu. Wei Jun didn\'t forget to put a round metal holder in a specialized device to heat it up.

Wei Jun brought the blade down and began to cut through Hen Zu\'s ankle. Blood flew in all directions and of course on Wei Jun too but his goggles protected his eyes from blood. As for Hen Zu, he struggled and yelled which was drowned by the tight gag on his mouth.

But nothing, Wei Jun didn\'t stop, he let Hen Zu feel the pain and continued as the bindings held his victim down despite all the struggles. Finally, the foot was severed after what felt like an eternity for both of the parties. Wei Jun hurriedly pulled out the rod to push it on the severed part to stop the bleeding. It worked, evoking more muffled yells from Hen Zu than he was already emitting.

Once he was sure that the bleeding had stopped, he moved to Hen Zu, only to find him unconscious. Wei Jun was quite dissatisfied with this behavior but he let it slide. After all, the man had just lost a foot.

Wei Jun removed the bindings on Hen Zu\'s mouth and pushed a healing pill into his mouth. Since he already had the opportunity, he wanted to learn the limits of the healing pill. Since it brought him back from almost death to the peak state, could it also regenerate a severed limb?

The answer came quickly, a clean stub formed on the part where the foot had been severed. The charred meat was gone but no regeneration occurred. Wei Jun saw Hen Zu slowly coming back to himself so he again gagged him up. The powerlessness to speak was another form of fear.

Wei Jun checked the fear meter and found it at a whopping 79%. This quest was way too easy for Wei Jun but given the difficulty was just D, he was sure he wouldn\'t have a hard time doing it.

As Hen Zu came to himself, he confusedly glanced around. Many questions passed through his head reflected by his eyes. Why wasn\'t he feeling pain anymore? Was what happened just a dream?

There was a chance of it being a dream and Wei Jun laughed at the sight. He stepped forward to enter the field of vision of Hen Zu before he spoke, "As an experiment, I fed you a magical pill that erased your pain. But the magical pill can only be used after ten minutes, so you will have to bear the pain this time because I\'m not letting you sleep peacefully."

With a smile on his face, Wei Jun moved to the calf of the left leg where the next incision mark was. The torture session of Hen Zu had continued and begun for real because there were still many points to go through and still many experiments to conduct.
