“Now, it’s ti for you to know why I want you dead.”
While taking care of Gorilla, Leo kept an eye on Theodore because his main target was Gorilla, to begin with.
As for Gorilla, he just wanted to die badly by acting arrogant, and Leo gave him what he wanted before walking toward Theodore.
“Why? Did I kill soone close to you?”
Theodore was thinking very hard about why Leo wanted to kill him.
He thought about the people he and his subordinates killed throughout his journey; however, he could not guess whose related Leo was.
‘Even though most of the things were taken care of by Ambermane Family and the Cloudriver Family, I made sure they did a perfect job, and they never let anyone related to my victims alive to avoid future troubles such as revenge.’
Theodore stopped thinking about Leo’s revenge and waited for Leo to tell him.
“It looks like you must have killed so many to get to your current position. No wonder you can’t even guess for whom I am taking this revenge.”
Leo had already expected the City Leader Theodore to be a ruthless person. So, he was not surprised anymore and decided to reveal it.
“Do you rember Spencer and Mariam?”
Leo didn’t take any extra asures to stop others from seeing them, thanks to the Dark Domain. So, without wasting ti, Leo revealed his adoptive parents’ nas and asked Theodore.
“Who?”.
How could Theodore rember the nas of his victims from the past?
He had killed hundreds, if not thousands of humans, and there was no way for Theodore to rember all the nas of his victims.
Nevertheless, he felt the two nas were a little bit familiar.
‘Scoffs’
Seeing the look on Theodore’s face, Leo wanted to kill him for not rembering his adoptive parents after killing them.
‘Just wait. I will make you feel the real pain.’
Nevertheless, Leo held back as he needed Theodore alive to answer his questions. Hence, he gave out so more information hoping Theodore would realize.
“The scientists who invented ‘Talent Awakening Serum’.”
“The scientists? ‘Talent Awakening Serum’?”
Finally, Theodore recognised them and asked, “What about them? How are you related to him?”
Even though Theodore would kill everyone related to his victims, he let the children of those two scientists alive for so reason that only he knew.
Nevertheless, he had always kept an eye on them and even recruited their oldest child Ryan into his army. He was ready to kill them the mont they showed even the slightest signs of revenge for their parents.
‘But where did this brat co from? How is he related to them?’
However, what he didn’t understand was Leo’s connection to them
“So, you finally rembered them. Good.”
Leo didn’t bother to answer Theodore’s question and asked, “Why did you kill them? They are just trying to help humanity beco stronger. Is there a reason to go as far as killing them?”
“Talent Awakening Serum? Don’t make laugh!”
Theodore could not help but laugh when he heard Leo’s words despite knowing that Leo would be killing him soon.
“Huh?” Leo frowned when he saw Theodore chuckle.
“Those so-called scientists invented a serum that could immune the consur to all seals below the supre class. We nad it Seal Resistance Serum.”
“It is not even that useful in the battle; however, those brain worms behaved like they invented the ‘Talent Awakening Serum’.”
Theodore corrected Leo and explained it was the ‘Seal Resistance Serum’ that his adoptive parents invented, not the ‘Talent Awakening Serum.’
“Then why did you kill them? Don’t tell you got triggered by their excitent about inventing the ‘Seal Resistance Serum’?”
Leo clenched his fists when he saw Theodore didn’t even show remorse for what he did to his parents.
“I killed them because….Master ordered to do so.”
While answering Leo’s question, Theodore hesitated a little and answered before silently taking out another black-coloured pill from his storage ring and was ready to consu it.
‘Slash’
However, before he could toss it in his mouth, Leo was waiting for Theodore to do sothing funny, and the mont he sensed it, Leo slashed off his hand with his [Fire Wyvern Claw].
“Aargh…my hand…my hand.”
Theodore cried in pain, looking at his hand on the ground.
“My bad…I forgot to tell you that I will cut one of your limbs if you try to do sothing funny.”
With an emotionless look, Leo inford Theodore before asking, “Stop screaming and answer my questions if you want to have a peaceful death.”
“Who is your master?”
Until now, Leo thought it was Theodore’s greed toward his parent’s research that got them killed; however, judging from Theodore’s words, Leo could tell he was not at all interested in their research work.
Moreover, the other party had willingly agreed that his master was behind it, making Leo frown.
‘Aargh’
“No…I can’t tell you. If he finds out, he could summon my soul and torture it until I disintegrate into nothing.”
‘Aargh’
With a face full of tears, Theodore shook his head and replied while groaning in pain.
‘Huh? Summoning the soul back from the dead?’
Leo frowned when he heard Theodore’s master had such a strong torturing talent.
“He might torture you when you are dead, but I can torture you while you are still alive.”
Why would Leo give up interrogating Theodore just because of that? He decided to show the hell to Theodore while he was still alive.
[Haunting of Ecstasy]
The talent he swallowed from the assassin’s squad leader had finally beco useful for Leo.
‘Thud’
As soon as Leo used his talent on Theodore, he fell asleep and entered a dream.
At first, he had an excellent dream where he was born into a powerful family and awakened a powerful talent, making him powerful in the entire world.
Everything was going well, and he was enjoying his life as a popular young man surrounded by beauties until their rival family successfully captured his family mbers with the help of the beautiful ladies around him.
Those beauties killed his family mbers right before his eyes in the cruellest way possible.
‘Why are you doing this…I loved all of you and even promised to help you beco the world’s strongest heroes.’
Theodore was both angry and sad that his beloved family was being killed by the beauties he loved. What’s more, they killed them slowly and let him watch the entire process.
‘You are a toad trying to swallow the swans’ at. Do you think we loved you? Have you ever seen your face in the mirror?’
As soon as one of the beauties finished her words, a mirror appeared before Theodore out of nowhere and soon, and he saw that his handso face turned ugly and his muscular physique beca hunched.
In no ti, he beca an ugly hunchbacked old man.
That’s not the end of it. The nightmare continued as the beauties tortured him in every possible way.
‘Aagh…stop it….please….’
In the real world, Theodore started crying in pain and begged soone to stop his misery.
“Just say the na of your master, and I will put you out of your misery.”
Leo’s words looked like heaven’s voice to Theodore in the dream world.
“H..his na is Jayden, the Slave Marker. He didn’t want humans to beco resistant to the slave seals. So, he ordered to kill those scientists.”
