Chapter 408: A Menacing Reminder

"How does it feel that someone as fast as you…

…would die a very slow death?"

Everyone in the room could hear it.

The Prince of the Evaniels, Dr. Vella, Admiral Varen. All of them could hear it, and yet they were helpless all the same. But of course, the one that could hear it most was the one that it was happening to.

No, perhaps Commander Voris was not even able to hear, as the feeling of his chest and lungs very slowly being crushed echoed throughout his entire existence. As inherently fast beings, and especially as a soldier, it was important that Commander Voris train himself to feel everything around him with utmost and extreme perception— and that is of course, unfortunately, including pain.

He could feel it.

All of it.
