Before she has time to react, you wrap your hands around her throat. The crowd goes silent as if they did not expect this to happen. Your breathing is shallow and rapid.
[QUEEN BEE MINDSET] "Listen here. I heard what you did before I came here. You harmed innocent people who were already struggling."
"T-they willingly agreed to a duel-"
"You had a weapon. Much like how a juicy Beetleburger advertisement can convince you to buy one, that weapon forces people to do what you want."
"You lost this duel. I have you in my hands. I could do a coup de grace. Do you understand the position-"
"Casey." Kiara clears her throat, fully aware that you could do something drastic. "We're here for our rewards, remember? I'm sure our crowd would be more than willing to punish this uncooperative employee. Don't go too far in your punishment."
That's enough to snap you back into your regular persona. "Oh! Teehee!" You turn your attention back to the Musketeer. "You will give me what I ask. You will not show your face here again. Failure to comply will result in termination of your employment status.
"Do you understand?" You speak with so much sugary cheer you almost forgot you're lightly strangling her!
You let go of her throat, simply taking this time to stare down at her with your dull yellow eyes. The color of beeswax.
>40! MEGA SUCCESS!
You swear she's about to break into tears underneath the mask of hers. "Let me go! Let me go!"
"Your fellow coworkers shall arrange for your punishment. Now-"
"F-fine! Fine! You win! You win! Get off me, t-this hurts!"
You do so! You climb off of her and inspect the damage on your ceramic armor. Her rapier was really sharp and pointy, it chipped off a pretty good layer off the protective ceramic arms of your suit! You'll need to spend some time repairing that.
>KNIGHTHOOD S-CORP REINFORCED CERMAIC BODYARMOR now has a low chance to block 1 extra MELEE damage and has a low chance to only block 1 FLESH instead of 2 from all attacks. You'll repair this over time.
The crowd promptly takes this opportunity to mess with the previously unflappable Musketeer in Black. They surround her like a group of your sisters dealing with an intruder. Her rapier, mask, and entire uniform get spat out of the crowd alongside some money and a piece of tech!
You collect them just in time for the crowd to step away from the Musketeer. Oh dear goodness she's naked. Her body has the marketable svelteness to it befitting of her athletic occupation! Her neon red blush is adorable too! Her long black hair and shining onyx eyes also befit her former Musketeer in Black occupation too!
Most of the crowd is looking at her butt than anything. You can't blame them! It is big!
Kiara rapidly takes pictures of the now nude Musketeer who takes your dented WEATHERED RAPIER since you no longer need it...and runs. The crowd tries to stop her but there's one good thing about her, she's fast! Too fast for any of them to get a hold of!
Oh well!
