Psycho X Psychic

Trisha no longer resisted Teren's grip as she felt her wounds and bruises heal. Not only that but even those that would turn into scars disappeared. She had never been in real contact with Spirit users, putting her in awe.

Even after Teren finished healing her and removed his hand, she savored the relief from pain. It's like eating garbage for a whole week then she got a taste of luxury. However, that made her a little fearful that this too will disappear too.

Teren took out his phone from his bag and pointed the camera to Trisha as he said.

"Remove your bandages."

"... are you going to record me?"

Teren realized as he was just trying his camera. In reality, he still doesn't have the strength to defile this woman sexually... unless he found a strong valid reason to do so. That's why he placed the phone down.

"No... also, you never had a shower since I kept you in here, right?"

Ashamed, Trisha nodded.

"Yeah, thought so since I only wipe you with towel when I'm changing your clothes."

"W-what!?"

Trisha almost jumped out of bed from hearing this.

"Huh? Do you think your clothes magically just changed?"

"Despicable!"

Trisha covered her private parts, feeling tainted.

'Oh... I guess I'm a little late.'

Teren didn't think that changing her clothes would really 'defile' her. His standards is darker than that. However, since it's done, there was nothing he could do.

"Remove the bandages now, since you know I've already since your body, there's no need hiding it from me."

"Changing my clothes on your own and me changing knowing that you're looking is two worlds apart."

Trisha heavily stated as her breathing became faster. She became confident since physical pain no longer bothers that much. She can tolerate it no matter the torture. However, she remembered that physical is only one form of torture.

[The order is irrelevant but I have to give you 'opportunities' physically, mentally, spiritually, sexually, and honorability.]

This was Teren's statement back then. Trisha gritted her teeth but soon, she calmed herself.

'I'm strong... and kept getting stronger. Before he could do anything sexual, I will be strong enough to escape this hellhole and get revenge.'

Teren observed Trisha's emotions and as he expected, she gained her spirit back as fear dissipated as if a blown flame on a candle.

"Then I'll do you a favor since you'll do me one."

Teren tapped his phone before he exited the basement. Trisha immediately removed the bandages afraid that Teren was lying. However, even when she's done, he has yet to enter so she shouted.

"I'm done!"

'I guess he's a slightly little bit reasonable.' she internally remarked.

After that shout, Teren came in with the bucket of water in one hand. Behind him were Josh and his elder brother. The elder brother looked around, thinking that the basement was emptier than he last remembered.

And at the very end, there was even a bed. He then saw the girl, now without bandages.

'Hm? Why is covered in bandages earlier if she didn't even have the slightest wound?'

Thud*

Teren dropped the bucket a meter beside the bed. He then pointed down and ordered.

"Kneel."

Trisha didn't say anything and just stared at the bucket.

"Josh, can't you tell me what's happening!?"

The elder brother muttered and Teren replied to him.

"Just watch."

The elder brother was stupefied but seeing Teren's power earlier, fear made him shut up. He glanced at Josh and found that his little brother have a grieving expression as if something bad was about to happen.

"So you want to drown me to traumatize me since physical torture no longer works, right?"

Trisha then stood from her bed and stood facing the bucket.

"Yes" replied Teren.

"But you will not kill me?"

"Killing you would make all my effort go to waste."

"Alright, I will experience drowning. How scary can it be?"

Trisha smiled and looked at the bucket of water. Meanwhile, Josh and his elder brother were weirded out. Is this a play? Josh never knew who Trisha was.

"But I will not kneel."

Trisha stubbornly exclaimed.

"How will I drown you if you'll not kneel?"

Teren sighed as it was troubling him.

"You'll have to force me."

"..."

Trisha lightly laughed as she watch Teren's expression turn conflicted. She knew that he couldn't use force. Why? Because of physics, of course. If he tries to hold her down, she will just try to stand up, in turn, Teren will just be lifting himself forward. If their strength is linked to their weight then it would've been possible but no, their strength came from 'external' forces so their weight remained unchanged.

"Trisha... how would you react if I kill your parents?"

Teren asked but this made Trisha's eyes widen. Not just her but Josh and his brother too.

"N-no... you wouldn't dare..."

Trisha was shaken as she denied it.

"Really?"

But Teren didn't use words too much. Knowing this demon, Trisha knew that he will definitely do it. She didn't need to force herself. Thinking how her parents will be killed because of her made her knees weak, thus, she naturally fell onto the ground.

Teren crouched down and held her nape. But before he could plunge her into the bucket, she looked at him like she had never been before.

Teren is familiar with this look. Even without the Spirit of Senses that strengthen his sense of detecting malice, he knew that, right now, Trisha almost reached Dehian's hatred.

"Teren... if you went for my family... I will not live in this world that you walk... and if I die, I will keep haunting you."

"That's good."

Teren nodded and splash*, he plunged her head into the bucket of water. This made Josh and his elder brother flinch as they felt a spine-chilling fear course through their back.

But it was not the end. Trisha was not moving at first but soon, she clenched her fist, and eventually, she tried to get her head out of the water.
