nEli clenched his jaws in rage.

nIn his eyes, people that came out of the Hole were all useless!

nSure, 8

/10th claimed to be changed and enlightened by their stupidity.

nAnd one might think that the other 2

/10th would be good to go.

nBut assuming that would be wrong.

nFor this group, unlike the rest, they were too cowardly to change, even though they too were scared sh**less.

nChange meant that they would have to face all the bullying from their gangs while staying here for years.

nAnd they weren't ready to take such rejection for long.

nSo once they left the Hole, they still joined their gangs.

nBut, their performances had drastically decreased.

nIt was as if the devil himself had held their weak points firmly, because they were always scared day in day out and trembling like cowardly fools.

nNo one could understand their drastic behaviours.

nWell, no one except those who truly changed for the better.

nThe reason was simple.

nThese trembling prisoners were scared because they broke the promise they made to the spirit in the Hole after they left.

nYup!

nThrough their day and night stay in the hole where sun or light never reached, they faced hell.

nFrom sleepless nights filled with scary sounds to murderous laughter from the walls, and even a voice that sounded like a demonic child's... everything gave them chills.

nThe air in the room was also terrifying, even 5 times more terrifying than Warden Mitchen's.

nGod! They had peed themselves so much while promising to change.

nBut now, because they didn't, they always lived in constant fear that someone would get them someday.

nOnly those who changed felt free.

nAnd those who didn't change couldn't perform as they used to in their gangs.

nThey always had nightmares, disturbing their climates, and now had problems making quick decisions.

nThey were as useless as newborn babies.

nSo how could Eli not be pissed?

nIf the enemy had succeeded in sending his punished generals to the Hole rather than the White room, they wouldn't lose a majority of them?

nNo!

nWouldn't he lose all of them since those who did join the gang again would be useless?

nWasn't this a direct hit to his power here?

nWho did it?

nWho was responsible?

n.

nEli snapped his fingers, and a few men surrounding them walked towards the trembling prisoner on the ground.

nThe prisoner's eyes opened wide in fear as he pitifully looked at Eli, begging to be spared while scaling forward in an attempt to give the men coming at him.

n

"No! I beg of you.

nAny more, and I will die.

nPlease, please, forgive me.

"

nAs the men advanced towards the trembling prisoner, Eli looked at another General of his and nodded.

nSoon, a loud cheer went on around the court, with people screaming excitedly and loudly while seriously watching the game.

n

"Give them Hell!

nBreak go's leg on the court!

"

n

"F***! Why can't you pass the ball, you stingy son of a b**ch?

"

n

"Shoot! Shoot!

"

n

"F*** Yeah! Nice shot!

"

n~Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap, Clap~

nThe crowd watching the game somehow got overly excited.

nAnd the noise instantly drowned whatever was going on around Eli, and by the time it quieted down, the trembling man's clothes were all soaked in blood.

nHis gruesome appearance made everyone's spine tingle.

nAnd the gang leaders who watched all had stern expressions on their faces.

nWhat they witnessed reminded them of Eli's cruelty.

nSeveral ominous thoughts squirmed at the back of their mind as they glanced at the bloodied man before him.

n.

n'Cough. Cough. Cough. Cough.'

nThe bloodied prisoner coughed large amounts of blood and trembled in pain while m.o.a.ning softly.

n

n

nTears hung at the corners of his eyes as the pain grew more and more unbearable.

nEli looked at him and smiled coldly.

n

"Oh? Didn't you say that anymore and you would die?

nLook. Aren't you well now?

"

nSnap.

nEli snapped his hands again, and several people brought the bloodied prisoner closer.

nEli squeezed the prisoner's jaws while looking deep into his eyes like a snake, ensuring its prey.

nLooking into his eyes, the prisoner shivered a bit.

nWhy did it look like he was starting at a bottomless pit instead?

nEli squinted his eyes and laughed angrily.

n

"Hahahhahahah.

nSo, you're the spy they sent to infiltrate my base, right?

nGood! Since you're so brave, then why didn't we test your limits?

"

nThe bloodied prisoner tried to shake his head in refusal, but Eli's grip was so firm that his jaws felt like they would break apart any second now.

nBam.

nEveryone's eyes stayed on the prisoner as he flew backwards from Eli's attack.

nCough. Cough.

nThe prisoner coughed out more blood as he was once again carried towards Eli, who in turn gripped his hair tightly.

n

"So, you dare scheme against my generals and expect to get away with it?

" Eli said before slamming the spy's head into the ground hard.

nBam.

n

"You know, for a spy, you're really sh**y!

"

nBam.

n

"And your masters are useless as well. How dare they insult me by sending you?

"

nBam.

n

"What qualifications do they have to go against I, the Great King?

"

nBam.

n

"Well, why aren't you talking?

nAnswer me now!!

"

nBam. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam. Bam.

n.

nAs if possessed by a demon, Eli descended on the prisoner like crazy while releasing all the pent-up rage that had been plaguing him since his setback.

nEveryone else stayed frozen while watching the scene.

nAfter feeling a bit better, Eli placed his leg over the fool's head, pinning him to the ground again.

n

"Listen up and listen well.

nI will only ask you once, and if you're smart enough, you'll tell me what I want to know.

nWho amongst these men is your leader?

nYou only have to the count of 10 to answer.

nThink quick, because your next words will determine your life from here on out.

"

nThe prisoner trembled harder after listening to Eli's words.

nAnd the moment the countdown began, everyone's heart grew anxious.

nThere were three options this bastard soy could take.

nEither he chose to remain silent and take all the blame or pick out his real gang leader.

nThe last option would be to pick out a fake leader and pin everything to someone else.

nSo even those who were innocent could fall into a trap today.

nEveryone's eyes focused on the prisoner as they did their best to look as fierce as possible.

nEli looked at them as the pathetic prisoner and increased the strength of his foot over the imbecile's head.

n

"3... 2... 1...

nYour time is up.

nSpeak. Who sent you?

"
