The Torture

"Here, that wound need to be cleaned or it will rotting."

The young guard put the towel that has been soaked with water on her wound softly. This mark will be there, permanently. Her life going to be much more difficult and harsh in the future. If you are a normal slave at last if someone take interest in you, he or , she can redeem you even become a mistress is available too, but for war prisoners that becomes slave the situation would not permits that. Though if one of the higher positions took a fancy to those slave they can be kept as a pet, but they won't be recognized by government and the children will be shu born.

"Come on, you need to change into this clothes. It's just a cover whatever you wear it doesn't matter as long as you are kind and uh... I know whatever I said would not change your situasion but uh..., okey do you need my help to change?"

"..."

"A joke it's only a joke don't be angry. Aish even when a slave at my manor got beaten to death I never give them this much care. You are still a child but this hard to please."

He thought that she would not answer him, but she actually give a response.

"They were dead, what kind of care you can give to them?"

Her voice is steady, it didn't look like a prisoner that has been sentenced and punished but a normal woman when talk with her friend.

"Ah ah.... you are talking?"

There is joy that flash in his eyes and he smiles widely.

"I am not deaf nor am I mute, so of course I can talk."

"Ehehe... I know I know it just you look so sad before. As if the world end."

"Don't you have any work? Why are you still here?." Ning Rui gloss him off. She is tired and exhausted. With him nagging none stop it only add a headache to her.

"Me? This is work! I am working right now. Don't you know, my brother ah no I mean the General ask me to guard you until tomorrow. There is no shift or rest for me. He is such a tyrant."

"Why? Did he afraid I will run away?"

To send someone as his standing just to guard a little girl that could not do anything. Is not that too much? Even if she is really a spy she won't choose to run at this broad daylight.

"Hey! Big Brother is very worried about you that's why he asks me to accompany yo." The Guard retorted back.

"Really? Him? If I can come out from this hell without dying I will be thankful. From your statement, I know he likes to make his subordinates work to the bone!"

"No! Uh, m...may...maybe just...just a little yeah just a little." His voice becomes smaller and smaller until nothing can be heard.

At first, Ning Rui really hate everything, she feels that the god isn't fair with her. There were never a time when she happy before she died and now after she got reborn the cruel fate didn't spare her either. Got kidnap at the first day then taken away as a prisoner and now she even has a slave mark in her face. She would not be able to cover it because she is not a lady from prestigious house but a little slave. Her life didn't matter here.

Then Ning Rui remembered, if she can do a plastic surgery whatever kind of wound would not be a problem. In ancient times plastic surgery has not be found yet, so if she could do it, no she must to do it. What is the material needs to cover the wound? A plastic? Eww... Will it melted if you burn? How to make plastic? If she became a plastic surgeon her life can be guaranteed at least she would not die because hunger. But before that, she needs to catch the real culprit and restore her innocent.
