Chapter 36: The Knight hates spellcasters (4)
It was nothing new, but Ihan hated magicians.
Why, you ask?
Isn’t it obvious? As a child, he was used as an “experiment subject” by a magician and endured it for no less than ten years.
Ten whole years. That’s 3,650 days, being experimented on every single day.
The pain he suffered then is something he’ll never forget, no matter how much time passes.
Every day, children were discarded after failed experiments. The experiments became more intense, resulting in scars, wounds, and unimaginable pain.
The endless extraction of blood, the tearing and burning of flesh—it was agony that no one could truly understand unless they’d experienced it.
That’s why it’s unforgettable.
...If he were to tell his story to a priest of the Light, they’d probably say:
“It was a trial sent by God. Thanks to that trial, you are who you are now. You should let go of those memories.”
To which Ihan would reply:
“─What a load of crap.”
