Leonel didn't even know what to say to all of this. Nilrem didn't even explain anything as he began ripping his body to what was effectively shreds.
Unfortunately for the wizened wizard turned torture master… it was extremely difficult to torture the current Leonel.
Leonel didn't even scream out, and his gaze was almost uninterested in everything that was happening. In fact, rather than uninterested, it was more accurate to say that he was focused internally, making it look as though he wasn't paying attention to the outside world at all.
He had just spent almost a century in complete and utter agony, his body being eaten from the inside out. And he had done it all even without relying on Dream Sense to dull it all because he thought that that might affect the process.
But now, he had no such qualms. The combination of Dream Sense and his forged will made Nilrem's attempt to make him scream out in pain a fool's gambit.
