Magnus moved slightly, and Hades, who was facing him with his cheeks resting, motionless, but the fugue's gaze immediately fixed on Magnus.

Magnus didn't move again, Hades blinked, changed to a comfortable position and lay on the table, he was wondering if to apply to move a small lathe over, otherwise Hades's life in the past few months was to eat and guard Magnus.

Hades thought boredly, it would be good to bring a few books.

Magnus is in prison, and Hades, who guards him, is not a different kind of prison.

It's been more than ten days, and Hades has memorized the order of dishes in the canteen on the Emperor Dream.

Of course, Hades has been in decline for the past ten days, and Magnus has not been touched, but given the physique of the original body, Hades is not worried about Magnus suddenly dying at all.

It would be nice if Magnus had been so "silent and well-behaved", and then the emperor at the key node would directly throw Magnus out of this state, and then how would the psionic energy operate.

But alas, Magnus spoke, and the dull and chapped lips of the original body were torn, and blood was pouring out, and his hoarse voice was like a dried corpse,

【…… Who are you? 】

Hades sat up straight, his eyes staring at Magnus, he didn't want to answer, but he remembered Macardo's request.

Hades pondered for a moment, and finally he spoke calmly,

"Your caretaker, Hades."

Magnus shuddered slightly, and a small wry smile split into the corners of his mouth,

[A stupid question.] 】

He said softly, Hades knew that Magnus was mocking himself, and after saying this, Magnus fell into a long silence again, and Hades propped up his head and strengthened the vigilance of the Black Domain again.

After this, after the fifth meal delivery, that is, on the third day, Magnus tried to communicate with Hades again.

Perhaps he couldn't help but stop talking, as of now, Hades thinks that the only Primordial that can go without talking for a long time is Motarian, and most of them will have some desire to talk and curiosity.

[You've been there? 】

Hades blinked silently, Magnus seemed to be asking a question that would benefit the prison break, but given that Magnus was no longer able to see anything, and he didn't use psionic energy...... Then it was the other senses of the original body that were helping him judge.

Hades looked away boredly,

"Sometimes I'm not there."

Lies, he's always been there, and he says this to deceive Magnus.

Magnus frowned slightly,

You've always been there. 】

He said firmly.

Hades raised an eyebrow,

"So what? You're going to jailbreak—"

[Nope! I will never, I will never do anything again! 】

Magnus's high-pitched voice immediately interrupted Hades's words, but he instantly turned pale again, muttering as if he wanted to say more, but in the end he could only mumble a few broken words.

Hades sighed,

"It sounds like a good thing, for everyone."

Magnus got stuck, and finally, as if he had made up his mind, he said in a trembling voice,

【Emperor...... How is the Emperor now? 】

Hades thought for a moment, he remembered the emperor's performance at that time, and Machado's words, Hades said indifferently,

"I guess it's quite angry, maybe a little sad."

He watched Magnus clench his fists and grit his teeth, his whole body trembling slightly, even his messy hair.

【…… I don't want to...... I don't want to...... I never wanted to hurt him. 】

After the last sentence, Magnus was about to break,

Hades stared at Magnus, and he said softly,

"Then why don't you listen to him?"

[Because there is no way! 】

A cry out of tune rang out, and Magnus yelled at Hades, but then he lowered his head in irritation like a prison beast,

[No one but me could save a thousand sons - neither the emperor nor Machado, and there were only a thousand men left in the entire legion at that time! 】

Hades blinked calmly, he stood up, stepped forward and walked to the iron bar, compressing the Black Domain, if it weren't for the Emperor's restriction and weakening, it would still be difficult for him to suppress Magnus's soul fire now.

"So that's why you're selling your soul and the future of the Legion to the devil?"

[I don't know—I didn't know it was going to be like this!] He didn't show me that?! 】

Magnus shouted in frustration,

[I never thought of it!] I knew it was dangerous, but I had no way out! I thought that was the whole price! 】

Magnus pointed to his own eye, but unfortunately it was only a deposit.

In order to calm down the shouting primordial body and stop disturbing public order, Hades reached out and grabbed the chain wrapped around the iron bar, and roughly smashed it on the railing.

The sound of the chains colliding was a good way to calm the roaring primordial, and Magnus realized where he was now.

"What are you yelling so loudly for?"

Hades frowned and said,

"I'm not a decision-maker, I'm just a little janitor, you talk to the emperor."

He watched Magnus's face turn pale suddenly, and the original body instantly lost its strength,

[No, no...... He won't forgive me. 】

Hades continued to ask patiently,

"Does he know what you just said?"

[He...... I think he should know that he saw everything. 】

Magnus hoarsely said,

"And what did he say?"

Magnus's lips squirmed twice, as if he had fallen into painful memories, and the original began to scratch his scalp and tear his hair like a failed man.

[No ......]

Magnus said bitterly.

Hades sighed, he didn't want Magnus to fall into extreme emotions, which psionics taboo the most.

"Well, you're not dead yet."

He said comfortingly,

"Your Legion...... Those righteous and kind warriors will not be imprisoned, and the Empire still needs warriors who can use psionic powers. ”

Talking about the heir, which took Magnus out of the painful meeting for a moment, Hades couldn't help but wonder what the emperor had done to Magnus.

Magnus covered his face in frustration, and he buried himself in the shadows,

[I hurt them...... I thought it was ......]

Hades walked back to sitting, still comfortable.

"Think of something else, it's useless for you to be miserable now, it's a matter of fact—unless the Emperor orders you to work."

[Father still needs me?! 】

Magnus's screams almost knocked Hades off his chair, but Hades got up angrily and slammed his foot directly on the iron fence to warn the original body to be quiet,

"Otherwise, what would he do with your life?! Could it be that he really likes to see you suffer all the time?! ”

The emperor is a tyrant, but he is a tyrant who is utilitarian, and he has a large army to look at Magnus, so it is better to kill him directly and then transfer troops to work elsewhere.

However, the blankness on Magnus's face told Hades that this was what the original Hades thought,

Hades took a deep breath,

"When did you establish the image that the Emperor likes to abuse people, Magnus? Or do you like—"

[Nope! Never! 】

Magnus retorted immediately, and he tried to explain in a hurry,

[It's just, it's just—it's common sense!] Punish sinners! 】

"Can your dad explain it with common sense?!"

Hades kicked the iron fence again, trying to silence Magnus.

Magnus screamed like a parrot suddenly stuck in its throat,

[You, what do you call him?] 】

Hades briefly recalled, and then realized that he had slipped his mouth,

Hades said solemnly,

"I say, Your Excellency, Great Emperor."

[You didn't say that just now, you said ......]

Hades cried out irritably, his voice now louder than Magnus,

"Got it! Why are you yelling so loudly?! Even if you report me to him and scold him, he will not be able to reduce your sentence! Stay honest, Magnus! ”

He watched Magnus choke with satisfaction, looking aggrieved and speechless.

Hades turned to sit back down, and he gained a moment of peace.

Until Magnus's weak voice sounded again,

【…… Who the hell are you, Hades? 】

"I'm Hades."

Hades replied fluently, and he looked at Magnus and thought irritably,

[What is your relationship with the emperor? Something like - like a Machado? 】

Hades thought about it, he didn't want to be like Macado who was a kidney-deficient official document every day, but many times he did get mixed up with Machado.

"Almost?"

【…… Are you the most powerful soulless? 】

Hades narrowed his eyes,

"You've crossed the line, Magnus."

Magnus was silent for a long time before he gritted his teeth and spoke again, as if he had made up his mind,

If you're like Machado...... So tell me...... I should...... What am I going to do? 】

Hades spoke casually,

"Stay here, don't do anything, listen to him honestly, don't think about it, and especially don't touch subspace."

He stared at Magnus,

"I don't think the Emperor wanted you to touch those things—he thought you were the best one."

Magnus looked like he was about to pass out, and Hades continued as if he hadn't seen it,

“…… You have to lower your expectations, nothing will go back to the glorious past, he is cleaning up your mess now, all you can do is not to make a new mess for him. ”

Hades watched Magnus shrink down like an inflatable balloon, and finally, Magnus said as if to himself,

[He wants me to live now and do nothing.] 】

"Yes."

Magnus breathed deeply, and the original body gasped violently,

[Then what did he show me?] 】

Hades said speechlessly,

"How do I know what he showed you."

But he was answered by Magnus's silence, and the original seemed to realize that there was no answer to Hades.

Hades silently looked away,

"That...... Do you still need to eat? I asked them to deliver food if needed. ”

The emperor shouldn't know that Hades cut off the original body's rice, after all, Hades didn't look like he wanted to eat when he looked at Magnus a few days ago.

In response to him was a confused Magnus.

Hades suddenly realized why Magnus thought the emperor would mistreat the prisoners.

3k, gone. Anyway, I actually made up for it a few days ago, but I didn't write it
