Chapter 57: The Eternal Court
The atmosphere was eerie. A deep darkness had cloaked the surrounding areas, with the only illumination coming from the beautiful stars and moon. A deep, almost unnatural silence had enveloped the academy, as tensions were high. Most chose to sleep, or engage in training to strengthen themselves.
Yet no matter what, the Academy’s atmosphere was tense as ever. The day following this night that was sleepless for many would be the Court Case held by the Eternal Court to finally expose who was killing the various students in the Academy, and how they did it.
Yet, in the midst of this tension, an unnerving sight could be found.
The [ Origin Demonic Prison Pagoda ] was quiet, almost too quiet. Nothing could be heard as one walked the dark, eerie hallway. Even the scariest horror movies could not replicate the aura in the surrounding area.
Deep, deep inside the Prison Pagoda held a secret room. Outside of the room were Pangu, Columbia Sylvia and Blaze, silently and patiently standing outside as they awaited the door to open.
However, once someone entered that room they would see an unnerving sight. Splatters of blood and chunks of internal organs were splashed all across the room, from the ground, to the walls, to dripping from the ceiling. Limbs and bones could be seen everywhere, and at the center of it all was a men in a tragic condition, obviously from torture.
"ARGGGGHHH!" The man let out a blood-curling, nerve wracking scream that could terrifying even the most horrifying of monsters. A deep primal fear in his eyes as he looked at the person opposite him, Damon.
Damon had been torturing every piece of information he could’ve gotten out of this man for the last couple hours ever since he was brought here after Damon "kidnapped" him from that secret meeting.
"Are you sure that’s all you know about the conspiracy against Demons." Damon said, his voice chilling unlike his usually calm but confident tone. This tone of voice was laced with a bone-chilling killing intent that washed over the prisoner, sending shivers down their spine.
