Unlike normal chains which would have shuddered and rattled under a man's adrenaline-fueled panic, the huntres's chains were much, much stronger. They didn't move an inch even as the man looked like he was struggling, making jerking motions that were barely afforded because of the chains that bound him. "More afraid of him than of me? A mistake if there is any," Selene commented mildly, eyes honing in on the rising anger and panic with a cold smile finally touching her lips. When he made almost as if to spit on her, she chuckled quietly. "I've more than just demolished hundreds of youkai in my time, Soushin-san. I assure you I am much worse than this man should I want to be."
"I'm no youkai. I'm not an onmyoji. And I'm not a police officer." She clicked her tongue, tone light and almost unlike the calm and cold woman if it weren't for the lack of warmth in her eyes as she looked down. "I kill for a living, Soushin-san. I torture because I have a talent in it, but as long as they ask me not to bear my claws you won't even feel them." For Phynex, this would have been an unpleasant reminder of how the huntress had lived and grown up exposed to Kasimir's influence. To the Easterns, the horrible feeling that suddenly spread throughout the room would be known as ki. Or killing intent. Selene used it with a delicacy that hardly anyone could use at will, and to be the focus of it was to feel like if a weapon had eyes to kill you. Kasimir could have stopped the hearts of people with his mere intent alone, or cause you to feel as if your lungs were being crushed by nothing but the air in them.
There were things that he had thought her, useful things, and this was one of them. Soushin would suddenly feel as if there was something hunting him inside the room that was far more terrible than he could bear, his breath lost and at the same time crushing his chest. His heart rate would stutter and skip but Selene held back from actually causing real harm - he was human and she could have stopped it. She didn't kill humans, even idiotic ones.
Abruptly, the feeling bearing down on him stopped, allowing him a few seconds of tearful relief. And all this she did without lifting a finger or even touching him. The smell of something uric suddenly filled the air, but she didn't say a word. He had urinated on himself, hadn't he? "There are so many things I could show you." There are so many things I could show you, my dear huntress. "But we could all just settle for a nice and informative chat..." The chains tightened around his elbows and kneecaps. "If you do what I say. Now." And so the crushing feeling was back. Selene was playing with how long he would last before he crumbled.
