Chapter 22 - Chapter 47

After getting dressed, Leion headed to the dungeon. He was wearing his previously worn, hardened leather armour. He was walking down a long staircase and was holding a white crystal; which was glowing, lighting up the stairs for him. When Leion set foot in the dungeon, he could see that everything was dark; only the guards had crystals like his, but they gave dimmer light. The moment the three guards noticed Leion they quickly rushed over to him.

"Sir... We have a problem... The man we recently captured... He simply knocked out two of my fellow guards without even touching them! And one guard who was executing orders to torture him seems to have suffered some sort of mental damage... We have decided to wait outside, but two guards are still watching him... Please, I am begging you, save them!" Begged one of the guards and the three of them fell to their knees.

"Don't worry, I will do everything I have to do! So I presume he is in the special cells designed for the most dangerous prisoners." Declared Leion and walked forward

"Yes sir!" Replied the soldiers simultaneously.

Leion left the guards behind and slightly raised his crystal to reveal a large iron door on one side of the room. As Leion looked back while holding his crystal high up, he noticed that the cells he had walked past were all empty. After taking a long deep breath Leion opened the door, and at that moment three guards rushed past him as fast as they could. Leion looked back, and after a slight hesitation, he closed the door behind him and walked forward. As he walked further in he still had his crystal above his head and could see different cells filled with different kinds of torture equipment covered with blood. After walking for a few seconds he finally reached the two guards who were holding their weapons but were shaking. As they noticed Leion they stopped shaking and bowed.

"S-sir... Here he is... This bastard just scared and did something to the guards who just ran away in fear! I hope you...." Jabbered guard but was suddenly interrupted as the person behind the forged metal door spoke up.

"Keep it down, or I will go out!" Said the person in the cell.

"Alright alright... Open the door" Ordered Leion and gazed at the door.

"Yes sir!" Replied the guard and slowly opened the door.

The thick metal door screeched but eventually opened and in the tiny dark cell a man was sitting on the ground, and all over the cell pieces of metal were scattered. Leion quickly pulled his crystal back, so the man remained in darkness. Leion couldn't see who it was or what he looked like, all he could see was that his eyes were closed.

"Who are you, and what are you doing?!" Questioned Leion with a cold tone.

"I think you should be the one to start the explanation! But it seems things work differently here after all... Judging by the way the guards reacted to you, you must be some kind of landlord, but don't think that I care about your fucking hierarchy!" Said the prisoner calmly.

"Despite being in such a pressuring predicament you seem to be way too calm. Do you even know whom you are talking to? He can have you home..." Shouted the guard, but suddenly no more sound came out of his mouth.

"I guess I will have to teach you how to keep it down!" Declared the prisoner, and the guard collapsed.

"Stop it!" Shouted Leion and glared at the man.

"Hm... Quite unexpected. Never would have I imagined a landlord caring for their subjects. But unfortunately, I have been bothered today enough, thus I will tolerate these idiots no more!"

Said the prisoner with a slightly irritated tone and then opened his eyes. His eyes were glowing green, and the moment he opened them, the unharmed guard collapsed, and Leion slightly slid back.

"I can tell that you are quite strong, but you lack experience!" Said the prisoner.

"Wait... This feeling... This... It's almost as if I have already felt it before..."

Thought Leion and was about to step closer, but suddenly the door through which Leion came into the room was kicked open, and two men entered. A guard holding a crystal, and a huge, muscular man with dim blue eyes. The man was full of scars and was quite tanned and was only wearing trousers. The man was bald and as he walked in he was scratching his head.

"YO! I am finally here! Lilo, you can go now, for I will collect everything from that piece of shi!" Declared the huge man with great confidence.

"Teach, I don't think that would be a great idea, also I was requested to come here, and I was here first... Also, how many times have I already told you not to call me Lilo?! I am already a grown man!" Spoke up Leion and walked towards the half-naked man.

"Sorry-sorry... No matter how old you are, you will always be Lilo to me! As for that little shit, I have the authority to act, as he harmed my men! Now go outside. Even if you are a grown man, you shouldn't see how I deal with him! Lead him out!"

Ordered the man and the guard grabbed Leion and started pushing him out, and once they were outside closed the now slightly dented door. Meanwhile, the man walked over to the open prison cell. He got there moments before the door was closed and everything went dark.

"Are you sure you can do what you said you would? Also Don't you think you will have to see in order to find me?" Said the prisoner

"You should worry about yourself you scrubby little worm! I can perfectly see everything. You might not know about it, but there is a special spell which allows you to see in the dark." Boasted the man and crossed his arms.

"Hah... Amature." Laughed the prisoner as he closed his eyes.

"What was that? You said it as if you could do better! Come here, you little shit!" Shouted the man and walked into the cell, grabbed the prisoner by the neck and lifted him up.
