The Third grinned. "So in summary... you’re screwed."
A blood tendril tightened around his ribs.
"GAH. Okay, okay! We’re screwed! Happy?!"
Azuna placed a hand on Damon’s shoulder. "Master... there is only one path out. Through that portal. I can accompany you. But once we exit, we face whatever awaits on the other side."
For a moment he remained silent, but then Damon’s eyes narrowed, crimson and cold. "Fine. Let’s finish what we started." He then looked at the Third and ordered. "You will step out first. You will assess the situation. And you will stall."
The Third opened his mouth, probably to protest, cry, or attempt an escape but there was the contract hanging around his neck. He could only silently accept. "There is no way there are going to be fooled. I am telling you. Those bastards are shrewd as shit. They would figure me out in an instant. I can only stall them for a couple of seconds."
Damon nodded. That is more than enough. He then took out a vial and placed it near his mouth. A small trickle of black water flowed down his right fang. He let it collect for a bit before closing the vial and handing it to the Third.
"Here. Take this."
The Third stared at the vial, completely appalled. "What the hell is this? Your jizz or something man? Look I know I signed the slave contract but this feels a bit too much. Don’t you think? Why do you want me to drink your jizz? I don’t swing that way, bro. Now if you can squeeze out her milk or something, I am more than happy to drink. I really don’t want to drink your man juice or whatever you got in there. What do you have there anyway?"
Damon pinched the bridge of his nose. "Just throw it. Its poison. Use it to do maximum damage."
"Oh, I see. That’s a good plan indeed. Weaken your enemies before you get out. I respect that. I can do that. No problem. Easy peasy. I can even try to kill some of those motherfuckers." 𝘧𝓇ℯ𝑒𝓌𝑒𝑏𝓃𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭.𝒸ℴ𝓂
"I know the weak ones," he continued. "Basically, the First, the Second and the Sixth are your real problems. Everyone else? They’re small fries. Useless pieces of trash. Even I can slaughter those assholes."
He paused. Then immediately backtracked. "Wait a minute. Do you have some antidote or something? Won’t I be affected by this poison?"
Azuna answered on Damon’s behalf. "So what if you die, insect? Dying for your master is your previlge!"
The Third’s entire soul left his body. His jaw fell open. His pupils shrank.
"Privilege? PRIVILEGE?!" he squeaked, voice going into a pitch only traumatized animals reach. "How is that a privilege?! Since when is dying a job benefit?! I didn’t even get training! I didn’t get a raise! I didn’t even get a uniform!"
Azuna blinked at him, confused as if he were the one being unreasonable. "You get to serve the master. That is more than enough."
The Third choked. "That is not enough! That is the opposite of enough! That is negativ enough! You-"
Azuna cut him off, tilting her head sweetly. "You can die quietly if you prefer. That is also fine."
The Third slapped both hands over his mouth to prevent any further suicidal words from escaping.
