Chapter 124 – Episode 124 Pulling Out the Nail Again (3)
“Aaaaah!!”
As Jia’s hand struck down, another scream filled with pain echoed throughout the basement. All of the nails on the last left fourth finger had been pulled out.
As a result, today, Jia pulled out the nails of the fourth and little fingers of both hands.
Knowing that she had now pulled out all the nails that needed to be plucked, Jia quickly untied the leather straps that bound his hands and threw his nail clippers on the floor. I never wanted to see that horrible thing again.
Thinking that everything was over, Jia looked at his fingers, all of which had lost their fingernails, and her body automatically trembled from the fear of losing her fingernails and the pain she still felt. It was a very unpleasant sight not to be able to see what should have been there.
“Ahhh…”
Blood came out from the finger where his nail had been pulled out, ran down his arm, and dripped onto the floor, making him realize that what was happening was definitely not a dream.
I’ve heard somewhere that even if a nail is pulled out, it can grow back, but that usually happens when the nail is pulled out because there’s a problem, and since the nail that was in good condition was forcibly pulled out, another terrible memory took root in Jia’s mind. .
“Good job. Take this.”
Jia was looking at the trembling fingers with missing nails, and when she heard Dohyeong’s voice, she looked up and found what looked like a bandage and medicine that Dohyeong had thrown in front of Jia. Jia barely picked up the bandages and medicine with her trembling hands.
“Apply it quickly so as not to damage the wound. Don’t make your condition worse for no reason.”
“Yes… Master…”
Ji-ah weakly responded to Do-hyeong’s words to treat her on her own and carefully applied the medicine to the area where her fingernails had been.
“Ugh!”
The moment she applied the medicine, Jia moaned again due to the excruciating pain. She expected that if she put medicine on the wound, it would definitely hurt, but it still hurt.
However, since it was clear that Dohyeong would continue to do something even after today, it was important to quickly heal the wound today, so Jia endured her pain, applied medicine, and carefully bandaged her.
“Okay, next is Camine.”
While Jia was receiving treatment, Do-hyeong picked up the object that Jia had thrown and threw it to Ji-seon, who was next in line. Ji-seon accepted the item with a calm expression.
“Yes, master. Then… Let us begin.”
In contrast to Jia, who had an expression full of fear as she pulled out her fingernails just now, Ji-seon slowly tied her hands with the leather strap of the nail puller as if she was not feeling any emotions.
And just like Jia, he started with the little finger of her right hand and inserted the metal tip under her fingernail.
“Huh… Haaah!”
She tied the laces as if nothing had happened, but Ji-seon must have been a little nervous at the thought of doing something unusual like pulling out her fingernails. After sighing loudly, she clenched her free hand into a fist and quickly put it down.
Bang!
With a loud sound, blood spurted out from Ji-seon’s hand and the nail on her little finger was pulled out.
“Ugh…”
Ji-seon also frowned and lowered her head, unable to bear the pain of her fingernails being forcibly removed. But unlike Jia, she barely rested and immediately started preparing to pull out the nails on her next fingers.
‘Fuck…Fuck!! If you have to do it anyway, it’s better to do it quickly. If you procrastinate like Jia did earlier, the pain will only last longer.’
Ji-seon pulled out all four fingernails in an instant, grimacing in pain.
“Ugh!!”
Although he said he quickly pulled out the nail while enduring the pain, it still hurt. Ji-seon fell to his knees in pain and was unable to immediately remove his hand from the object.
The pain of having the flesh connected to the fingernails ripped off was more painful than I could imagine, and I felt like I understood to some extent why people in the past would pull out their fingernails when they were torturing me.
Still, in the joy of ending this pain, Ji-seon mustered up the strength to stand up and untie the leather straps that bound her hands.
“Treat yourself with the bandages and medicine that the butterfly over there is holding.”
“Yes, master…”
Ji-seon walked unsteadily, unable to even close her sore fingers, with them facing away from the floor.
“Okay… Now it’s the last Harvey’s turn. Let’s hurry up and get this over with, shall we?”
“Ah, ah! Yes, master!”
As I watched Ji-ah and Ji-seon pull out their fingernails, I was so scared that I was shaking even though they had not even pulled out their fingernails yet. Then, she was startled by Dohyeong’s voice calling her, answered, and walked to the object where she was pulling out her fingernails.
“Haha…”
Now that Eunji thought about pulling out her own fingernails, she was so scared that she couldn’t control her trembling body. Recently, she remembered being whipped on her back and how painful it felt to have her flesh torn off, and she became even more afraid of pulling out her fingernails.
As she couldn’t even touch her things because she thought she didn’t want to, Dohyeong sighed next to her.
“When are you going to start… If I don’t do it soon, I’ll pull out more fingernails?”
“Oh, yes! Let’s get started right away!”
Eun-ji had no choice but to put her hand in the object and tie the leather strap with trembling hands when Do-hyeong said that the four things she had to pull out now were difficult, and that he would let her pull out more.
And as Eunji felt the horrifying sensation of the cold metal tip coming under the nail of her little finger, Eunji knew that the moment had come when she had to pull out her fingernail.
“Ugh… Ugh!!”
Because she really didn’t want to do it, but had to, Eunji quickly put down the handle and at the same time, she couldn’t help but close her eyes and scream at the pain of the flesh being torn from her fingertips.
“Quaaaaa!!”
“Heeeeek!!”
At the sound of Eunji’s voice screaming louder than Jia’s, Sujin, who was stuck in a far corner of the basement, covered her ears with both hands and closed her eyes. As I listened to the pain-filled voices that kept coming from me, I couldn’t help but want to avoid them, even if I was out of my mind.
“Okay, now there’s one.”
Seeing Eunji unable to move with one of her fingernails pulled out, Dohyeong tapped her with his toe. Eun-ji, who realized that this was an implicit signal that she would increase the number of nails to be pulled out if she did not do it quickly, staggered and inserted the tip of the iron under the nail of her fourth finger and struck the handle once more to pull out the nail.
Eunji, shaking in pain, replaced his hand because he now had to pull out the nails on his other hand.
However, Eun-ji closed her eyes tightly the moment she put down his handle, painful to have to feel the pain she felt in his hand again.
At that moment, Dohyeong, who was watching next to her, slightly used magic.
Bang!
“Ugh…”
The pain was so painful that Eunji opened her eyes, thinking about pulling out her last remaining nail.
“… Uh?”
At that moment, Eunji unconsciously made a strange sound at the sight of the finger in front of her.
The nail, which should have been pulled out like before, was only torn off halfway and was hanging off the finger.
Eun-ji turned his head to look at Do-hyeong, who was watching from the side, at this scene. What on earth is happening now?
“What? Why are you looking at me?”
“Well, that… Those nails…”
“What should I do? Pull that out properly too.”
Eun-ji felt her heart sink at Do-hyeong’s words, which seemed to ask why she was making such obvious statements. The fact that I had to endure the pain and pull out that shaky fingernail again felt so terrible.
This was all because of the magic that Dohyeong had just used. By gently moving the iron tip under the center of Eunji’s nail to the side, the point of force was shifted so that it was torn in only one direction.
“B… But… If it’s like this, I can’t get rid of it with this… Right… Right?”
“Hmm… That’s true too.”
The object being used now uses the principle of a lever to pull out the nail attached to the finger by momentarily striking it with strong force, so it was difficult to use with Eunji’s fingernails in their current condition.
“Then… I have no choice. Just tear it off with your hands.”
“Yes?”
“Take it off and rip it off. It doesn’t look like there’s much flesh attached to the fingernails or fingers anyway.”
Eunji has always felt that Dohyeong is a crazy person, but today she felt that he was definitely a crazy person once more. Dohyeong’s command to tear off the shaking fingernails with his own hands sounded like the devil’s whisper.
“Why can’t you do it?”
“Well, that is…”
“If you can’t do that… Just pull out another nail.”
Do-hyeong gave Eun-ji a choice that would only lead to a painful future no matter which one she chose. Of course, Eunji was going crazy.
“Well, like that…”
“The choice is yours. I don’t care what you choose.”
In fact, there was only one option for Eunji to choose. All he could do was tear off the now shaky fingernails with his own hands.
If you already have four fingernails pulled out, there will be many inconveniences in your daily life, but if you pull out one more, it will be even more difficult.
So Eunji, with tears in her eyes, untied the leather straps and held her shaking fingernails with her trembling hands.
Tears couldn’t stop coming to my eyes as I thought about ripping off my fingernails, which were so painful to even touch them lightly. But Eunji made up her mind and ripped off his nails with all her might.
“Ugh!!”
Eunji sat down in pain as her flesh was torn off once more.
‘It hurts, it hurts!! It hurts so much… My fingers hurt so much!!’
Eunji, who was screaming in her heart, opened her eyes with tears and barely got up from her seat. Because I have to pull out the last remaining nail.
Thinking that there was really only one left, Eunji quickly tied his hands and prepared to pull out his nails.
And then she squeezed her eyes shut once more and pressed against the handle, feeling the pain of the flesh being torn from her fingers.
The problem is that the nail is torn off on one side again, making it shaky.
The figure I was watching from the side had used magic again this time.
Do-hyeong stayed quiet during Ji-ah and Ji-seon, but the only reason he cast a spell on Eun-ji was because of Min-ah.
Anyway, the reason for pulling out the fingernails this time was revenge for what the three people did to him in the past. However, Eun-ji thought that she should be punished for tormenting Min-ah, so to make it even more painful, she quietly cast a spell to make the situation even a little more painful.
Eunji, who saw that part of her fingernail was torn off again, did not hesitate and untied his string. She knew that nothing would come of it if she hesitated here anyway, so she pulled out her fingernails with her free hand like before.
“Kwaaaaa!!”
This is how the three people’s nail pulling came to an end.
@@@
After the punishment for today’s game was over, Dohyeong went out of the basement.
Ji-Ah, Ji-Seon, and Eun-Ji sat in their seats and said nothing, looking at their injured hands today.
In particular, Jia and Eunji were in despair at the reality of being subjected to painful punishment again, even though it had not been long since they felt the pain of having the flesh on their backs torn off by a whip.
But there was nothing they could do, and as the quiet time passed and dinner time arrived, Eun-ji handed out bowls of cereal to Ji-ah and Ji-seon, and she opened some for herself to eat as well.
Then Eunji felt something strange.
Even though it was the cereal she ate every day, she suddenly smelled something strange and felt like she couldn’t get any closer.
“Ugh! Ugh!!”
And Eunji, feeling nauseous rising from her stomach, quickly ran to the bathroom and vomited into the toilet.
“Ha… Ha… What on earth is this…”
Unable to figure out why her body had suddenly become like this, Eunji examined her body carefully.
After confirming that there was nothing wrong with her other than that she was injured compared to usual, Eunji thought deeply about what had just happened and came to one conclusion.
“S-No way…!”
If ‘that thing’ happened to one’s body, it would be possible to explain what had just happened.
That’s why Eunji smiled brightly.
Because what she had longed for had finally happened.
‘Now… Now I might not have to suffer from that guy anymore!’
