Lily used magic to heal the man, bringing him back to the optimal state, but even with his body healed up, it couldn't take away the horror he felt, that was forever a part of his soul.
"Now you can ask him any question, I doubt that he will try anything," Lily said and took a step back for Silva.
Silva came close to the man. The man looked at Silva like he was the devil, this twelve-year-old to whom they called master.
This twelve-year-old watched him get tortured without flinching, what sort of mind would you have to not be fazed by such a sight?
"Alright, answer my questions honestly, or what you felt will just be the tip of the iceberg. Do you understand me?" Silva asked.
The man nodded as fast as he could. He didn't want it, he couldn't take that pain. No, he would rather sell his soul to this kid than feel that torture anymore.
"I will tell you anything you want, please, I'll tell you," the man said.
"Good, what's your name?" Silva asked.
"My name is Eren. I am from Blacklight City. I was born and I grew up there," Eren spoke in a rush.
"What is the name of the organization that sent you all here?" Silva asked.
"We are called the Dark Blade. I was asked to join a few years back. They offered us a good life as well as a good life for our families.
All we had to do was follow. It was like they brainwashed us into certain beliefs, and the beliefs were tied to the ancient demon race," the man said.
"Ancient demon race? What is that? Tell me more about it," Silva asked.
"I don't know more, that's all I know. We were asked to raid this dungeon to scout because our leaders believe that a demon king candidate will be birthed in this labyrinth.
I don't know what all that is, but that was the information that we received. Nothing more, we are simply a scout team," the man said.
"Ancient demons, and a demon king candidate, all this information, and you have nothing more on them?" Silva asked again.
"Is there something I need to know?" Silva asked.
"Yes, there is. There is one more place in the labyrinth that you need to come into," she said and then looked at the guardians.
"Drake, you come with me. The rest of you should go and capture all those cloaked men and cage them until Daddy is back.
The issue at hand is more important, so we will have to keep their punishment aside and just capture them. Is that okay with you, Daddy?" Elsa asked Silva.
"Yeah, it seems the issue is really serious, and I also want to know what the demon stuff is about," Silva said.
The other guardians bowed their heads and teleported to capture the intruders that had been scattered all around.
Elsa led Silva and Drake to the back of the throne. She placed her hand to infuse mana into the wall behind it.
"Lady Elsa, is it the library? Is that where you are taking us?" Drake asked.
"Yes, there are things Daddy needs to learn," she said.
"Library?" Silva asked.
The walls lit up, showing a large magic circle, and then the wall opened like a door. They walked into a hall more massive than the throne room.
It was filled with books, equipment, crystals, and all sorts of things, even gold and all sorts of precious items.
When Silva saw this, his mouth was left open. What the hell is this?
"I was planning on showing Daddy later, after he became accustomed to the labyrinth. This is the library. I know there are a lot of things aside from books, but that is the name it was given.
I told you before that all I know is from my mummy, but that was kind of a white lie, Daddy, because I got knowledge from here.
All the dragons that ruled here since the Dark Dragon, these places house their knowledge, and their resources were stored here," Elsa said.
