My Beginning After the End Downfall

Teagrin Caelum Pt. II

Virion Leywin

I was breathing heavily, not knowing where I was because of the blindfold on my face, all I knew was that I was in some type of chair shackled down, unable to move an inch. My neck was restrained to the wall as well, so I was assuming I was in a chair against a wall in a cell.

I tried using mana, but nothing worked, however, I could feel the shield in my brain still active. Dammit, where is the phoenix bracelet, was it in my hair still, I hope so, actually, I think it is, my hair is still tied up.

"Virion, you are finally awake." I heard the voice of Agrona speak from in front of me. "Oh my, you are a clever one, I don't know how you did it, but I am unable to touch your mind."

"Woah man, don't phrase it like that." I said with a grin on my face, at least I think I was grinning. "I have a little protection around my brain at the moment, there is no way you are going to be able to mind control me."

"Hmm." Agrona made a noise. "Ha, you crazy bastard, fine, if you can keep that up without mana, it must mean you can take it down whenever, so this is what is going to ha----"

I cut him off. "You got any food?" I would have tilted my head, but I was unable to, being restrained to the wall and everything. "For some reason, I am feeling famished." I could feel the pressure from Agrona leak out of him, he was getting angry at me. "Hahaa."

As I was laughing, a hand collided with my face, silencing me, then a gag was placed on me, keeping me silent. "Your spirit will be gone sooner or later, so back to it, this is what is going to happen, we are going to torture you until you lower that shield in your head, then when you do, it will all end." I started to giggle internally at the situation I was in. "You will become my weapon sooner or later; it is up to you to decide when that is."

I heard him leave the room, and another person spoke up. "The Devil of Dicathen, it's an honor to be your torturer." I started laughing even more, the person who was speaking was a guy, but the way he spoke made him seem like a pussy for some reason. "My name is Clifford ---" He was cut off by my loud laughter, even with the gag on, it made it hard for him to speak. I felt him remove it from my mouth, and then he said. "What is so funny?"

I bit my lip, then responded honestly. "Your name is Clifford?" No one said a word. "Hahahah."

"That is it." I didn't know what it was, but I could feel fire in the room now. "I am a master torturer, I know how to inflict the most pain to someone without killing then, one of my runes, a crest, is a fire whip, so we will start there."

"Pft." I made a noise but couldn't hold back. "You are a master torturer, is that a fucking thing? Do people go around and say, oh, I am a master torturer, please hire me." As I finished speaking, a crack of the whip sounded, and it struck my chest. "Ohh!" I said, now feeling that I was shirtless in here, which I didn't feel before.

Another crack of the whip, and another, and Clifford spoke. "In here you are no Devil, you are no soldier, you are a child, a child worth nothing."

"So, you admit you are hitting a child?" I asked, with a smirk on my face, and I felt it collide with my cheek, I could feel the blood run down my face. "Ahhh, that one stung." Yeah, I don't know about this, can I endure long enough for the plan to work.

"Shut up!" Clifford shouted as he whipped again, and again, and again, my chest on fire, the pain growing more and more unbearable. I didn't have mana to heal myself, or protect myself, the cell I was in prevented that. "I don't want to put the gag on you, I am going to silence you myself."

The whip collided with my face again, I squinted under the blindfold. "Wait, wait, you didn't answer, are you hitting a child or not, because..." The fire whip collided with my ribs, but I kept speaking afterwards. "...that is some messed up shit you are willing to do for a god that doesn't give to flying shits towards you."
