"Who?!" Silas felt a burning pain in his arm, as if he had been whipped by a whip, and his roar twisted with pain.

"Be quiet, are you willing to let the Demon Seekers find me?" A coquettish female voice came from the darkness, so beautiful that Silas trembled in his heart, and before he knew it, he closed his mouth.

"Are you...... Who? Silas asked crampedly, thinking of the wonderful existence behind the beautiful sound, and the stew in his hand suddenly became less fragrant.

"I'm ...... The person you've been waiting for. ”

The voice in the darkness fell silent suddenly, and then a pair of eyes without pupils suddenly opened, emitting a faint green fluorescence, like the eyes of a jackal staring at its prey, looming in the night.

"You're a mage? Or is it a monster? The strange scene in front of him made the sense of anticipation in Silas's heart disappear without a trace, and he gasped, feeling the absurdity of the idea he had just had.

The shadow chuckled, two whip ropes rising from behind her, wrapped in a thick inky mist, and the glowing spiked barbs at the tail reflected her wonderful silhouette, but at the moment Silas had no idea, the shadow of death haunted him, and his mind was filled with fear.

"Monster! Demon! Silas muttered and stepped back until his shoulders pressed against the icy walls and there was no way back.

The demon was outside the cage and Silas was inside, but he had no doubt that the other party would be able to easily kill him through the cage made of Demacia steel, because his arm had been hit by the whip rope just now. If the other party had aimed his tail thorn at him in the first place, he would have been dead by now.

"You're here to kill me, too?"

Silas cowered, his forbidden stone handcuffs were destroyed by Jeno, and the forbidden stone in the cell did not store any magic, and now he was not even as weak as an ordinary person, and he was powerless to resist this demon.

The glamorous demon taped the fence, and her full breasts were squeezed into a wonderful shape, reminding Silas of her own head being popped.

The demon answered his question by saying:

"Guess wrong, what punishment do you want?"

"No, I don't want anything!" Silas grabbed a handful of dry straw to cover himself, but his muscular physique made it impossible for him to hide.

"If you can't escape, let's start and dig into the source of pain in your body together."

The demon chuckled and began to carry out the punishment, slowly extending the barbed whip rope into the cage.

Like a twisted viper, the whip rope snaked into the cage, dead silent without making a sound. The tip of the spike shone with a sharp cold light, like a drop of venom hanging from a fang, deadly and beautiful.

Looking at the approaching spikes, Silas nervously forgot to call for help, the arm that had been whipped trembled uncontrollably, despair slowly covering his mouth and nose like a shroud for the burial of countless people, and all he could smell was a suffocating stench of decay.

However, Spike did not hurt Silas in the end, and stopped a meter in front of him.

It's not that the whip isn't long enough, it's that the demon didn't want to kill him. Most of the whip rope was bent, enough to reach Silas if it were elongated.

Silas saw the spikes turn around, pointing somewhere like a sign.

Then the spikes emitted an eerie purple light, and he soon saw what the demon was going to show him—the fat stew that had fallen out of his hand at first, lying quietly on the filthy floor. There were several rats lying around, some motionless and dead, others fluttering on all fours, but the next moment they followed in the footsteps of their kind.

Silas understood something instantly, and his anger tore through his sanity like lightning.

"Wow, poison in the meat! These lackeys want to lynch me and poison me! ”

He clenched his fists angrily, and the first thing he thought about was not why the demon seekers poisoned him, but that these lackeys of the noble lord had caused him to not even eat rats now.

How can poisoned rats still eat?!

"It's good to change the taste once in a while."

At this moment, the coquettish laughter reached his ears again, and he suddenly remembered that there was a demon watching him in the dark.

But at this moment, he was not as afraid of her as he had been at the beginning.

"Are you here to get me out?" He tentatively approached the fence, the demon's spikes already retracting from the cage.

"No, you're just going here, you're not allowed to go anywhere." The demon had hidden in the darkness and had completely denied Silas access to it.

"So what are you here for?" Silas said angrily.

"Someone wants you to live, and you just wait here obediently until the moment you appear in court." The voices in the darkness were ethereal, far and near, leaving Silas completely unsure of the other party's position.

"Aren't you a demon? Come make a deal with me! If I can get out of here, I can exchange my soul for you! ”

"I'm sorry, but they're not the casual demons you think. If I want something, you won't even find out until the moment I take it. Besides, your body and mind are already tormented, and there is no room for squeezing. ”

Silas tried to provoke the other party, but he was ridiculed. He deliberately yelled and knocked over the plates, smashing the iron basin with a loud bang, trying to force out the demon who didn't want to make a noise.

But the effect backfired, not only did he not force the demon out to stop him, but instead attracted the demon hunters outside the detention room.

"What's crazy?!" The Demon Seeker kicked the door open and yelled at Silas.

Silas ignored him, instead searching the room for the demon's traces by the light of the fire seeping through the door.

But he found nothing, as if the demon had never come.

If it weren't for the dead rat still lying quietly at his feet, he would have thought he was hallucinating.

A sense of crisis of being watched made him swallow a mouthful of saliva, and lied to the demon seeker: "The food has been spilled, can you give me a new one?" ”

The Demon Seeker didn't know that the food was poisoned, but he ignored Silas and delivered the food like, who cares if he eats it or not.

"Hehe, you wait to starve to death."

He coldly dropped a taunt and closed the door again.

The cage returned to darkness, and the voice came out like a ubiquitous viper, whispering in his ear.

"What's next, a wonderful world for two?"

Silas was on the verge of breaking down, and he wanted to die, but the demon said to him, "If you die, you won't see the day when the forbidden demon system will be abolished, so you should tighten your belt and live." ”

These words lit a candle of hope in Silas's heart, and he looked up, wondering why, but the demon escaped into the darkness again, leaving him alone to face the loneliness and lack of light that he had experienced for sixteen years.
