Chapter 1293 - Leaving Baymard!

Chapter 1293 - Leaving Baymard!

Everyone watched the entire process, accessing Paula's nude body. And though she was riddled with wounds, many men still found themselves to have a response from their bodies while staring at her.
They licked their lips and reached for their pants in secret, to quickly atheist and hide whatever bulges seemed to be springing up.
Nicolas stared at the woman in disdain, even though his body had long reacted to her.
At the same time, he was also filled with rage as well.
'Damn you, woman! You dare seduce others before your husband? Just you wait and see how I teach you a lesson after this!'
The host felt his throat roll with heat. And very quickly, he drew his attention to the matter at hand, calling everyone's attention to himself again.
"Tarring & Feathering! This is the new punishment type that will be executed to all minimal thievery, adultery and lower-level crimes. It will be followed by public stunning (or throwing of fruits), and the public walk of shame throughout the entire city, for adulterous women."
"Oh~~."
Everyone nodded and listened keenly, wanting to know more about this tarring and feathering.
In modern times, when people hear of tar, they think of Asphalt used on the roads.
But in these times, tar referred to pine tar or resin.
In short, it was a glue-like material that formed when pinewood got heated to extremely high temperatures in a low-oxygen environment.
This process then turned the resin into a very sticky substance that looked like balls of honey.
Pine tar is what they use on their sailing ships as a sealant and wood preservative.
And in modern times, it was still used in products like skin treatments and most shampoos.
But to people here, even wooden times could be sealed up and preserved longer with pine tar.
So when these people heard the strange Punishment Tarring & Feathering, their immediate thoughts were on the large cauldron in the arena that was constantly being heated so that it wouldn't dry off fast.
No doubt about it, that should be the tar.
So... So... Was his majesty going to do what they thought he would?
Everyone opened their eyes in horror when thinking about it more.
F***! Are they sure that the lady wouldn't die from this in the end?
(0_0)
.
The host spotted a few people's reactions and chuckled deeply: "Esteemed guests. Like we said, the chances of one dying from it are extremely low. This new punishment is indeed boiling enough to cause some damages. Still... As hot as the tar could get, the most lasting injuries would most likely be a deep scar to one's price and reputation... So without further ado, let the demonstration begin!"
Instantly, Paula's eyes widened in dread, seeing the many guards hastily scope buckets of tar from the hot boiling cauldron.
"No! No! No!!~"
With strength that suddenly erupted within her, Paula began protesting and shaking like a chicken, trying her best to flee as fast as possible.
But how could it be possible that she, a weekend woman who hadn't even eaten in 2 days, would be able to fight off these sturdy guards?
Their protests and eerie bantering only made everyone feel more and more excited for the scene to unfold.
-silence-
The entire audience turned silent, with the only noises in the arena being that from those below.
Exciting. Exciting. Too exciting!
.
Many didn't even know when they had subconsciously leaned in, with some people not even daring to blink for fear of missing any part of the show.
And at this moment, Tilda only felt her breathing getting choked by the cruelty of her family.
What should she do? What should she do?
Her entire head buzzed with just one thought in mind: Save... Save... She had to save nana!
Like so, she quickly took off her shoes and held them as though she were holding weapons.
And with very swift actions, she began making her way across the many people seated on the stone-slab bleachers.
But she was only a 13-year old girl, with not so much strength or training to begin with. So how could she be an opponent for those around her?
One of the general's invited to watch, didn't even bother standing up from his seat after noticing her presence.
With one foot placed forward, he calmly blocked her path: "Princess... Don't let me tougher you up here. Sit down!"
~Swish!
Tilda threw one of her low-heeled shoes at him, planning to stab him with it.
But her technique was so slow and so messy that before she could realize what was going on, she suddenly found herself pinned to the ground and treated like a prisoner.
"You let me go! You let me go now!"
The guard paid no heed to the teary eyes Tilda and hastily yanked her up.
And with Alexander's gestures, the guard now pinned her hands and forced her to watch the scene below.
"Nana... Nana..."
Tilda stared at the scene as though she were a lifeless human, feeling completely powerless to save her loved ones.
And at this moment, she and her nana had the same wish in their hearts.
'I wish I was never born into such a family.'
.
"Pour it! Drop it now!"
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh~"
Paula's eerie screams carried out across the entire scene, making many shiver uncontrollably.
A thick layer of steam left the woman's body after releasing a deep quenching sound.
~Chaaaahhh~~
"Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh~~."
The woman squealed, shook and trembled as though she were having a seizure.
The entire ordeal looked so ghastly that many now forgot to breathe.
The hot tar was poured onto her nude skin, causing it to blister and redden as though she were a live chicken getting boiled.
Horrible. Horrible.
Just how the hell did the Morgs think of such a punishment?
Tar existed, but no one had ever thought of pouting it on someone. The entire process seemed too gruesome to behold.
~Gulp.
Many couldn't help shaking in silence at the sight of this new found punishment.
Starring & Feathering... Scary... Too Agonizing to watch!
In the end, feathers were poured on her, and she was then paraded around in shame.
The sight was truly remarkable for those on the streets to witness.
The term Tarring and Feathering was made famous, thanks to Morgany.
And just like that, 2 days flew by in a blink of an eye.
Landon woke up today feeling incredibly energized.
Today, they'll set off!
