Playing a Sadistic Game 1

After reporting to his leader, who wasn't available by the way, the leader of the assassins group was going back to his group who was watching Austin from a good distance.

'Tsk. Black-sama isn't in his office and I don't know when he will come back, besides, I left my group before I went to report. I could have just sent someone else to do the job instead of me rather than me going but I have to do it or I won't get the recognition of Black-sama.'

'I don't know where Ingrid-sama went to as we lost contact with her a month or so ago and the situation inside Nomad is uneasy, and the nine noble families, Haaah everything is messed up. Could it become even worse?'

The leader thought while running so fast toward the location of his group, not knowing that he had been tracked to Nomad and 'HQ' of Edwen Black.

Although Nomad was a known corporation, but no one knew what was hidden behind it, and once everything was revealed, there would be an uproar.

No one knew where was the headquarters of Edwen Black at all, no matter how much they searched, they didn't find anything, not even a glimpse.

It felt like it didn't exist at all, but those powerhouses in the association, knew that it really existed and it just was well hidden from their eyes.

Well, they aren't so far from the truth.

Anyway, once the leader of the assassins reached the location, he looked for his group.

But unfortunately, he didn't find anything here at all, as if they weren't here from the beginning.

'What the hell?!! Where are they?'

He tried to search for them more, maybe they were slacking off here or there, but it was in vain.

He found nothing.

Suddenly, he felt a bad omen, and when he was about to leave, something caught his legs.

Both of them were unable to move as if they became one with the concrete.

Looking down, he found that both of his legs were frozen. He tried to break the ice with his power, but he couldn't as if this ice was made from the finest materials in the world.

'What the hell is this? How could this ice appear out of nowhere and bind me to the roof without even me realizing that?!' His brain was processing hard, searching for a way to escape from this bind.

But then, suddenly he felt a shiver running down his spine. All the hair on his body stood up and cold sweat was running down in buckets.

'W-what is this feeling?!' He questioned himself as his brain was unable to process such thing.

Then, out of the blue, foot steps resounded behind him. It was steady and calm yet it exuded a sense of terror shaking the man's core.

'S-Something is walking...behind me.' He was terrified as whoever the person walking toward him, his aura was overwhelming and strong yet terrifying.

A pair of two glowing blue orbs were coming slowly and slowly as the man heard the sounds of foot steps coming closer and closer until...

Wooosh!

The wind blowed and the clothes flew.

Then suddenly, beside his ears, the man heard the voice of death.

"You finally came. Made me wait for you too long,"

It was eerie and scary voice.

The leader of assassins was too scared right now. (A/N: I'm so fucking scared right now 😂 you know the reference) The atmosphere and the feeling of the owner of this voice exuded was too powerful and impactful shaking his core.

He didn't expect himself to be put in such a situation.

Then, the voice resounded in his other ear.

"I had to play with some little rats to entertain me until you came back, but alas they weren't that much,"

"...Just pathetic~" His last words that came after a moment was full of sarcasm making the leader of assassins tremble in anger, forgetting his fear.

"You, you do not humiliate my subordinates with your filthy mouth! You hear me!"

"Hahahaha, and what will you do if I did, huh? You can't even free yourself from a bunch of ice."

"You are just pathetic, all bark but no bite. This is you and you will have the same fate as them so soon but after I get you, try, try some things I created recently. You could even consider it a game if you want~." Austin said with a voice full of sarcasm at the beginning and exaggerated at the end.

"You think that I'll betray my master because you threatened me? Huh, dream on."

"Who said that, little rat~. We will just play a game together~" Austin said as he flicked his fingers.

In the next second, the surroundings changed. It became dark.

The leader of assassins found himself sitting on a wooden chair and tied to it with his hands tied at the back and legs attached to the legs of the chair.

The atmosphere became more terrifying and he felt that something bad was going to happen to him.

But he, the one who sought Edwen Black's recognition to get ride of his status as a laughing stock between the demons wasn't going to back down.

Although he was strong and his group was powerful, but he was a laughing stock between the league of assassins due to his mixed race as one of the most things that demons hated was the existence of something that wasn't pure. The mixed race between demons and humans, that was one of the most hateful things to the demons if not the most hated.

So with his will and determination to get stronger and get the recognition of his master, the leader had his eyes gleaming brightly and was filled with powerful will.

But then, a light appeared that came from a lamp that was hanging on the ceiling, making him see, even if it was a little.

He saw a figure of man siting in front of him wearing a white shirt with 2 buttons unbuttoned revealing his cheseled chest. The shirt was rolled up revealing his the toned muscles on his wrist and arms along with a black pants.

But the thing that attracted the leader of assassins the most was the pair of two glowing blue eyes that were looking at him when he looked up.

It was like a higher being looking down at an ant. Darkness was surrounding the figure of the man as if hugging him, and along with his terrifying aura, the leader of assassins felt so small and weak in front of him and his will and determination from before vanished and was thrown out of the window, then replaced with fear and nervousness.

He felt like his life was over at the moment and any wrong word he would say would show him a hell that he had never seen.

Then suddenly, the man in front of him smiled and before saying...

"Now, let the game beings~"
