Chapter 344: Eric

An underground prison:

It was a vast underground complex spanning hundreds of miles. The whole facility was coated with high-grade alloys that could withstand the attacks of any level 6.

A peak level 8 was stationed in the central room to overwatch the facility.

This was one of the rare prisons that could hold even level 7s. Rare because rather than arresting high awakener criminals, the federation preferred shooting them down.

After all, keeping high awakeners locked cost a lot.

For instance, each cell in the prison was customized for different paths.

A space cell had formations that made teleportation impossible. Of course, they were hella expensive and even took space stones.

That's why…unless it was absolutely necessary, Space awakeners were killed off.

At the moment, Evander was standing in front of a cell. Behind him were two guards in combat suit, acting as his escorts.

The cell was made of a pitch back metal alloy. The locked up person would have trouble seeing anything, even if they had super eyesight.

The alloy was also capable of absorbing sound. So, the whole cell was deathly quiet 24x7.

In short, the captive in the cell couldn't see or hear anything. It was a terrible condition to be in and the weak willed simply couldn't handle it.

Not only that, the cell didn't have any exit. It was closed from all sides. The only way in and out was a small teleportation formation in the prison.

Fortunately, the finances of the prison weren't too bad and they were able to afford the mini-teleportation formation.

It costed far less than an actual teleportation formation, but it still was 15% of the complete expenditure.

'I hope I can get something useful.' Evander squinted his eyes and tapped on the black wall.

A blue screen popped up and scanned his iris. Then a small treasure opened and sensed his aura.

A glowing circle appeared on the black wall.

"Eric, it's not too late. Who instructed you?" Evander asked with a stern voice.

"…." He was only met with silence.

Evander clenched his fists and wished to smash the fucker to pieces. The only problem was…he couldn't.

On the charges of revealing crucial information at inappropriate place, Evander brought Eric to investigation.

But with Julius Xander meddling in the affair, he didn't get the permission to 'physically interrogate'.

That meant he couldn't beat the crap out Eric and torture a confession out.

So, he settled for the next best thing. The black room.

It was three days already but the bastard hadn't opened his mouth.

"Eric, you are a supervisor dammit! You swore to protect the cadets yet you pushed one of them to death with your own hands." Evander's voice turned chilly and a scaring killing intent leaked out of him.

The guards behind him, both level 7s shivered uncontrollably as their legs wobbled and they almost collapsed on the spot.

"I didn't push him to death." A hoarse voice came from the glowing circle.

Evander smashed his fist into the wall, the hair on his neck standing straight. "Are you fucking kidding me? First, you asked him 20k to search for the information.

Even a fool would know it's important. And you reveal it in a banquet for fuck's sake!

You also knew about Varian's performance and were aware of exactly how many people were spying on him and paying attention to your conversation.

Don't bullshit me."

"…." Again, there was no response.

Evander stood in the silence for a few minutes before he said in a dry tone. "The boy…is dead. You achieved what you wanted. Now…"

"…"

Evander's fist smashed into the black wall again, leaving a dent. "Now fucking tell me the mastermind so I can avenge him."

His chest heaved up and down as Evander felt an aching pain. It was the same pain…the same pain he felt when he realized he lost Sam.

It was definitely faint, but it was the same pain.

"Fucking tell me, you son of a bitch!" Evander lashed at the wall again, causing the cubical cell to move a few meters away.

"He lost his mother. He spent a year wallowing in his pain. He barely survived the entrance competition and even after entering the academy, he was suppressed by those self-entitled assholes." Evander kept smashing the cell, causing more and more dents in the wall.

The alloy which boasted to withstand even level 9s was creaking uncontrollably with each punch.

"Nobody teamed up with him for a mission and he had to go with second years. And despite all this…despite all the oppression he faced, you know what he did?" Evander slowed down the punches.

His voice was incomparably low as his breathing turned completely ragged. "He saved them, endangering himself. He nearly died!

If not for some shit luck, he'd have died. Period.

Forget his genius, forget his achievements…just his spirit, don't you hold any shame acting despicably on such an individual?"

"….It wasn't my choice." Eric's voice came.

His words only enraged Evander further as he sped up smashing the cell. Cracks started to appear on the wall.

"Choice? You always have a choice. I don't understand how you see yourself as a human anymore. Why don't you just die? You cherish your sorry life so much?

A pathetic peak level 7. Bah. V-Var..that boy would've beat you in no time." Evander didn't want to speak out his disciple's name. It was too painful.

"…." He was only met with the pathetic silence.

Crack. Crack. Crack.

Evander pulled back his arm and twisted his torso. The next moment, space nearly cracked as he punched the goddamn wall open.

Boom!

It blew into pieces and revealed the weak man inside. Despite no torture, Eric looked he was hollowed out.

With bloodshot eyes, a bent back and chattering teeth, he resembled anything but his powerful supervisor image.

It might've elected sympathy, but Evander only felt disgust.

He raised his fist to beat down the man and extract a confession. He was done following the rules.

Right then a light flashed and Eric disappeared.

Evander's body blurred and he appeared on the ground, instantly climbing the underground prison.

In front of him was a short man in a red uniform. He was holding Eric in one hand and looking up at the sky with an amusing gaze.

"Rohak, this place is off your limits. Fuck off and give that pest to me. He has a confession to make." Evander didn't give any pleasantries and went straight to the point.

"Woah~ Easy there, high general." Rohak said with an exaggerated expression.

"I'm not in a mood to play with you." Evander's aura spiked.

Rohak's expression cooled down. "No place is off limits for 5th Shura Squad. Besides, this time I'm on an official visit."

He opened a file and shared it to Evander.

Evander had a bad premonition but after reading through, his expression was completely dark.

"As you can see, Eric is protected by the law. There is no clear evidence against him. Holding up a level 7 for so long for personal reasons is just to selfish."

Evander clenched his fists and his body trembled uncontrollably.

"Eric will be transferred to Xern planetoid. This is a direct order from Sovereign Julius. He said he didn't hope to see you kill a high awakener."

Upon hearing the name 'Julius', Evander cooled down. He wanted to fight, but for the safety of Sarah…he chose to endure it.

"Hahaha. Now then, I'll be taking Mr. Eric.. See ya, Evander~" Rohak disappeared with a laugh.
