Rudra brought the three captured men in one room as he had put the unconscious Victor in a potato sack , with the other two men unaware of his existence inside the sack .

Taking a chair Rudra took a seat before them , as he looked at the two men restrained to a metal pole giving him dirty looks as if they wanted to rip his heart out from his chest .

For the first one minute Rudra only gave them amused looks as he let them spew hate on him as he mockingly smiled at them implying ' Stare all you want , but what can you do ? '.

Rudra was playing psychological games with these men as he pissed them off to get their emotional state agitated , as through the years Rudra had learnt that an emotionally Agitated person was much more likely to make impulsive decisions rather than an emotionally stable one.

After a while , Rudra clapped his hands as the assassins from the true Elites walked inside the room with An array of tools and chains , as they cleaned the weapons as they put it on a mat beside Rudra , one at a time.

Muffled screams escaped from the gags that were placed on Jack and Xietian as saliva dripped on the floor .

The two men shot vicious glares at Rudra that had hatred , anger and some fear mixed inside them , however overall they were determined to not give the weapons up no matter what.

However , little did they know that these tools were not for them at all , as Rudra snapped his fingers and the unconscious body of Victor was dragged out of the potato sack as the assassins pulled him by his hair , handling him like a object rather than a human.

From four hinges on the wall , four tight iron chains were attached , the other end of which was bound to victor as he was suspended unconscious in the air, all four of his limbs stretched to the full.

Jack and Xietian were now practically wailing till their point their vocal cords hurt as their fear turned into pure hatred for Rudra as they wanted to rip his face off at the moment then flail his skin alive.

However no matter what they wanted , at the moment they could do nothing but watch as Rudra splashed a glass of wine on victors face jolting him awake.

Naturally victor was stunned to see himself being held captive with his first instinct being to use blink and get out of this jam

However the room where Rudra was holding them was specially installed with mana cancellation devices which made manifesting spells inside it impossible.

" LET ME GO , YOU *****@#&#-#-# @#@&#&$-## , @@##$&$-***** ******

". Screamed Victor , as Rudra paid no heed to the man.

Only seeming interested in picking out the best weapons to torture as he finally decided to use a scalpel as he inched closer menacingly towards victors face as he glanced towards the two men to see their reactions.

Xietian and jack were staring wide eyed as their eyes became bloodshot . They were loosing their damn minds seeing Rudra's antics.

Although Rudra felt no pleasure in this , someone had to do the dirty job and he was such a man who would do it himself than let any of his innocent guild members sully their hands with it , as he was not a spineless leader who was scared to get his hands muddy , but a sacrificing one who would stand at the forefront of it

Taking a deep breath , as he controlled his hurting conscience , Rudra carved the words ' Runt ' on victors face as the man screamed in pain and a -1200 damage appeared on his status bar.

This was payback for him having the audacity to call Furball a runt infront of Rudra's face as Rudra made sure to drive that point home.

As although victor kept spewing insults after insults at Rudra , Rudra kept up the cycle of torturing him , then sitting for a while on his chair sipping fine wine as he mocked xietian and jack before torturing victor with a new method some more.

Bit by bit Rudra sapped away the spirts the two men had as he could see the defeat and despair crawl in their eyes , as hours of this process later their once angry howls had changed into cries for mercy.

However Rudra did not stop there , as he mangled a live humans suspended body to a bloody mess beyond recognition untill jack and xietian hit their lowest seeing jacks HP bar at 1%.

They were truly desperate to save their friends life at the moment , as Rudra shockingly pulled out an advanced healing potion at this moment , swinging it infront of their eyes as he said

" Your friend will die any minute now from the constant bleeding he has from the cuts all over his body , and his death can be averted if you guys act quickly .

Give me the pages and i will give him the potion as well as swear to end the torture.

As I only want my pages back , nothing more. Lucifer dared to mess with me and i am only repaying his grace that he showed me by crucifying me back to his own people.

Beleive me it disgusts me more than it disgusts you to torture you weaklings rather than Lucifer himself , who deserves this. But unfortunately I am not strong enough for that. Hopefully you forgive me and give me the papers.

Unless the death of ur friend wont be on me

".

Jack and Xietian could not beleive the hypocrisy coming out of Rudra's mouth , however desperate to save their friends lives they caved in an instant as they gave up the pages and eyed Rudra as if to say ' HERE F**** ,NOW GO SAVE MY FRIEND '.

Which Rudra actually followed through with as he indeed administered the advanced healing potion personally to save a dying victor.

Victor's HP bar shot back up , as his injuries faded at a visible rate giving the two captives a momentary sigh of releif. However this was going to be their last joy before death

As before exiting the room , Rudra looked at an assassin and slid a finger against his throat giving the death signal for the three captives inside.

Today he had to bring out a dark side of himself , bringing unprecedented cruelty to the table , as the weight of the papers in his hands felt more than they should , as Rudra contemplated the cost of getting them

He was not proud of the events that transpired however a small part inside him was satisfied to have completed the goal at hand. However a bigger part , which was his conscience just kept asking him one question ' To defeat the devil , are you going to become one? '

It was a soul shaking question , as Rudra feared the answer that came from deep down his heart. As the answer was a faint ' yes '.
