Chapter 172
Killian
The journey back home didn't take too long.
When the hovercraft stopped, I did not continue losing myself in my thoughts. One of my hands was still around the green haired robed man.
I came out of the hovercraft and I dragged him with me. A yep left his mouth when he hit the floor heavily. I headed straight to one of the dungeons available in this palace.
I didn't let anyone inform Edna of my return. The only thing that action would breed is more worry. Although she was already very worried when I decided to meet up with the mastermind behind her condition, telling her about my return would attract a different type of worry.
I would make sure that I make it up to her later.
First, I have to get to the end of the situation on ground. I took big steps so getting to my destination didn't take too much time.
The man I was dragging was hanging limply.
Finally, we got to the dungeon.
Two stern guards with scarred faces were guarding the entrance of this dungeon.
The both of them nodded to me before I pushed the door open with my free hand.
I released the man I was holding.
My fingers flew over my other wrist as I sent my location to the imperial guards that followed me earlier.
I want them to bring the other person we caught to me.
A familiar smell filled the air. It was the strange substance that was meant to weaken me.
I chuckled darkly as one of my brows rose.
"I thought we've already established that your drug is ineffective?" I smirked.
The green haired man looked at me defiantly.
I didn't mind. His stubborn attitude was great.
He would give me the opportunity and space to flex my torture methods. I haven't done something like this in a long while.
The normal operation of my body slowed down a little. I ignored it and approached the green haired man.
I grabbed him roughly and brought him to a rack that was attached to the nearest wall.
I started to hook him to the rack.
The green haired man wasn't about to go down without a fight. His struggles made it harder to complete my goal.
Dark flames appeared on my hands.
A painful groan slipped from the green haired man's mouth and his struggles reduced drastically.
I used this opportunity to hang him on the rack.
I admired my work for a while.
My eyes stopped looking at him. I focused on the nearest wall. This wall was filled with all kinds of tools and devices.
It was time to get to work.
My hands hovered on the multitude of options before me. For a brief moment, I stewed in my indecision.
Once again, Edna's miserable situation flashed in my mind eye.
I withdrew the hand that was moving towards a tamer device.
A dark smile flashed through my eyes. My hand landed on a branding tong and a pack of spiky metal nails.
This torture session has to start with a bang.
