Kael picked his ear, looking indifferent to everything that was happening.
Tower of Glory was the most difficult ga in the world, but, it wasn’t omnipotent.
Since it was a ga, there had to be a way for the player to escape from a certain situation.
And if that thought was applied to what was happening, then there had to be a way to escape this illusion.
"Oh co on, I knew you guys had so information, right?"
Kael was a human, so he understood human thoughts the best.
Judging from Joey’s words, all of these people had probably lived here for many years.
And now they were saying that they had never tried to escape?
Kael would rather die than believe those words!
Surely soone had tried.
"Nonsense! Shut up, you bastard!"
"..."
He was waiting.
"There’s no way out of here!"
Right now, it was highly likely that all of these people had gone mad.
"We don’t know anything!"
And when people went mad, they couldn’t control their words anymore.
"Only that person would be stupid enough to do sothing so stupid!"
’That person?’
Kael raised his eyebrows.
As expected, those who were patient would surely be rewarded.
A dark glint flashed in his eyes.
Then, his lips curled up slightly, looking sinister.
Without even a second’s hesitation, Kael imdiately rushed towards the person who had said that - a crazy woman with ssy hair, and imdiately hit her on the back of the head.
"Argh!"
A scream rang out.
But no one cared.
While the others were still in a half-awake state, Kael imdiately grabbed the woman, and together with her ran out of the cave.
Staying there for even a second made him feel nauseous.
"Let’s run, everyone!"
Without stopping even after getting out of there, Kael continued to run.
He even picked up his speed.
"We need to get away from those lunatics as soon as possible!"
Sotis, lunatics were even scarier than the Tower Creatures.
Who knew what they could do when they were in a rage?
***
"Pant pant pant pant!"
Only when he was sure that they weren’t being followed by anyone did Kael stop with peace of mind.
They had been running for quite a while, so now, he really needed ti to recover his strength.
But...
’No matter what, this place is really big.’
Honestly, at first, Kael had thought that this world was only as big as a village.
But, he was wrong.
This place was at least as big as a city.
Or maybe even bigger than that.
So, he imdiately gave up on the idea of continuing to run until they reached the border.
"That’s..."
Suddenly, a lake entered his vision.
Without hesitation, Kael carried the still unconscious woman, calmly approached the lake, and then pushed her head into the cold water.
A second passed.
The woman’s body remained motionless, and quite a few bubbles appeared on the surface of the water.
2 seconds passed.
Not much happened.
3 seconds passed.
Still the sa.
4 seconds passed.
The water stopped bubbling.
At the sa ti, her fingers moved slightly.
And then, when the 5th second reached the shore, she completely regained consciousness.
Panicked, the woman began to struggle, waving her arms and legs around like a hyperactive person.
"Help ! Arghh!!!! Murder! Help!!!"
"Shut up, bitch!"
Having been hit in the face by her a few tis, Kael really had no intention of being gentle with this woman anymore.
As if treating an item, no, a pile of trash, he lifted her head up, then threw the woman’s body away.
"Cough! Cough! Cough!"
Because she choked on the water, she started coughing.
But at least it wasn’t life-threatening.
"You bastard! How dare you do that to a woman like !?"
And then, after she had stabilized her body, she started screaming like a mad dog.
"You bastard! You sexist! You piece of shit who doesn’t respect the elderly!"
"Tsk."
Kael clicked his tongue in annoyance.
He was quite regretting his decision to bring her here.
"Hans, stabilize her, by any ans necessary."
Kael coldly ordered.
"Huh? What are you going to do?"
Blinking a few tis in confusion, the woman asked.
But it was a useless action, because she was about to get her answer anyway.
"Understood."
A voice suddenly rang out from behind.
And in the next mont, her body, her head, was pressed to the ground by the protagonist.
In this situation, the woman was treated no differently than a criminal.
Indifferently, Kael approached her, glancing at her with a mocking gaze that didn’t even bother to hide.
"Let’s continue talking about the topic just now."
With a gentle smile that didn’t allow anyone to object, he gently sat down in front of her.
"W-What topic? I-I don’t know what the hell you’re talking about!"
Obviously, for just a mont, she panicked.
This proved that this woman really knew sothing.
"I was a genius to predict that you would say that."
With a sinister smile, Kael took out the sword that had been bathed in the blood of many enemies.
"And to be honest, even if you did say it, what’s the guarantee that it’s true?"
So, he chose the fastest and easiest way to get all the information from soone.
"It’s ti to start the torture."
Kael’s silver blade flashed a cold and deadly light.
"Argh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
For the next 30 minutes, legend had it that they heard the pained and miserable screams of a woman.
Not stopping for even a second.
***
Throughout this entire process, Kael had successfully turned himself into a nightmare for this woman.
Now, every ti she saw his face, the woman would unconsciously recall the hellish feelings she had gone through.
"...Please... spare ..."
Like a dog, the woman knelt before him.
Satisfied with his work, Kael asked the first question:
"Who was the person you ntioned earlier?"
Not daring to object, she answered imdiately:
"I don’t rember his na clearly, but I only know that he was the only one who truly wanted to leave this place."
"So where is that person now?"
With a cold voice, he continued.
"...He... is dead."
"Hmm..."
Kael had expected this answer from before.
After all, how far could soone without an Ability like him go?
"If that’s the case, then why don’t you guys lend him a hand?"
"..."
For so reason, she hesitated.
"Speak, if you don’t want to experience that painful feeling just now."
"...Because... he really went crazy. His condition is even worse than ours."
"..."
"And... he beca like that in less than a year."
What a record.
"His enemy is truly a monster..."
Her body began to tremble uncontrollably.
It was as if she was recalling so nightmare.
"...I witnessed that scene... so I know..."
A scene that had left a psychological shadow on her even now.
"...The sight of that person being killed so miserably and ruthlessly..."
"..."
"And that was when we all realized a horrible truth... no one could be its match."
