Agelt frowned when he heard that, cursing the guy in his mind. He felt so awkward that he did not know what to say.

To stop himself from being in a similar situation, Braum stood up and said, "We didn't do anything at all. All six of them died to Fane. His skills are beyond imaginable. None of them were a match for him at all."

The moment he said that, the cave fell quiet. Quite a few of them were so shocked that their jaws hung open as they turned to look at Fane. At that moment, Fane did not care about what anyone else was saying at all as he dragged the whimpering, struggling Manson to the deepest part of the

cave.

The pain in Manson's soul rendered him unable to think properly. Fane waved his hand, controlling the power of the Broken Soul Blade so it no longer ripped Manson's soul.

The pain slowly decreased, and Manson slowly recovered. He panted heavily, looking like his head had just been shoved into water.

Cold sweat stained his clothes, and his face was white as paper. When he saw his surroundings, his entire body stiffened. If it was not for the fact that he was still breathing, Fane would have wondered if he was dead.

Manson gulped as he started to retreat backward.

Fane smiled as he patted Manson's shoulder, saying coldly, "You wouldn't be able to do anything now, even if you could shrink your points. You should be able to tell. I didn't kill you and brought you back instead for a reason. Why don't you guess why I did this?"

Manson's lips stiffened as he looked at Fane in dread. He had too much fear in his heart and knew what he was going to face soon. He looked to the corner and could not help but shudder. This time, it was not from the pain, but from the intense fear.

Fane scoffed and said, "You betterExclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

know your place. I'm still feeling patient right now, but if you avoid any questions or try to lie to me, my patience will vanish in the blink of an eye. I told you that I have all the time in the world and hundreds of ways to torture you. If you want to experience it, I don't mind giving you a taste."

At that moment, Manson shuddered even more. He did not even dare to look at Fane. Thinking about how had laughed at Fane when he

warned him before their battle, he suddenly realized that he had been

the laughable one.

He had been the ignorant one, and Fane had not lied at all. Manson was the one who walked into the pits himself.

These thoughts surfaced in his head as his breath grew labored, but there was nothing he could do.

He was already right on the chopping board at that moment, and he could not even kill himself.

On the other hand, Fane was in no hurry when he saw that Manson was not talking. He instead reached out to grab Manson's shoulders.

Fane continued, "I just want to ask a few simple questions. If you answer me, I'll kill you quickly. If you grit your teeth and refuse, that's fine too. I'll just have to waste some more time.

"You felt what I can do just now. Didn't it hurt? If you don't answer me, you'll be in even more pain later. If you lie, the pain will increase by five times." Fane was expressionless even as he threatened Manson.

When Manson thought of the pain he had felt earlier, he could not help but start twitching.
