After intense howling and screaming, a figure kneeling on the ground stood motionless with a hollow lifeless look.

His throat seemed to burst out after shrieking loudly due to being tortured by the maniac who sat before him with an angelic smile.

Blood trickled and flowed down from his head.

The flowers were ripped off and pulled off without any shred of mercy until the colourful garden became a dreary desert.

If this wasn’t enough, the man stepped on his knee and toes breaking each one of them one by one while keeping a count.

“So, baldy tell me. ”

“How did it feel to undergo a heavenly session offered by me?”

“Will you spread my name far and wide,” Alex spoke with a large grin.

Seeing the man not replying and looking at him with a pitiful gaze, Alex spoke with a cold tone.

“Hey, can’t you see this elder is asking you a question?”

“Didn’t your parents teach you to listen to your elders?”

“Do you want me to pluck your teeth and rip your tongue,” Alex spoke in a cold tone.

“No, no….” The man screamed and almost pissed his pants and started to cry out of fear.

He had never imagined in his life that he would have been reduced to such a state.

A highly respected Disciple ranked warrior had been tortured like this. If others heard that how he could saw his face to others, be would be mocked to death.

Moreover, this demon had stripped his hair making him bald.

“Tsk…Tsk…” Alex clicked his tongue and spoke in an annoyed tone.

“Your tolerance level is really low.”

“Just where did you get the guts to do this kind of thing when you can’t handle the torture when someone does the same to you.”

The scarred man wasn’t able to answer Alex’s question and just let him mock him.

It was still better than getting tortured and killed by this demon.

“Now scar man. Tell me, who are you?”

“Don’t think that you can fool me with that large scar and bandit like get up?”

“If bandits like you can reach disciple rank in a backwater kingdom like this then this country would have already perished,” Alex asked with a threatening voice.

The scarred man opened his mouth to say something but he was unable to utter it due to a scorching pain.

He swallowed his saliva and spoke in a soft painful voice, full of regret”You are correct. I am not a bandit.”

“In my prime, I was just a small commander of the battalion of Brigade Kingdom. Due to an injury, I was forced to retire early but my job didn’t finish with retirement.”

“With Nevan’s worsening condition, they didn’t want to waste time in conquering it. And thought of another way to get their fill.”

“The mines around here are not under any noble territories, so they told me to form a small team and gather a huge group of bandits and transport the minerals.”

“At first, we only took part in smuggling the ores but some people tried to come here and take over the mines, we beat them and those whom we found good material, we sold them as slaves.”

“Our operation began to enlarge along with members. We made the villagers nearby work as miners. While many of my members started to raid and loot the travellers and take them as slaves.”

Alex’s eyes became sharper and fierce the more he listened to the scum before him.

This asshole was a commander who fought on the battlefield still he didn’t know the value of life.

“What do you do to the slaves,” Alex asked.

” That…That..”The scarred man stuttered and trembled a little seeing Alex’s gaze and he knew the next words may provoke the demon.

“We used to transport them in Brigade and sell them in auctions and if we take someone to our liking..we….we.” The man flinched as he saw Alex’s eyes becoming blood red and his breathing became heavy.

“Good…Nice…You are a nice man….”

“Now, I get why you bandits think like real men. According to you, forcing yourself on a woman will make you a man.”

“What good thinking. I am in awe after hearing your legendary deeds.” Alex clapped trying to contain his anger.

“Max is it over,” Alex shouted.

“Yes, Your Highness.”

Max shouted.

After separating from Alex, they lay low to take the opportunity to take over the mine.

Before Max and Ben madcharge, no one was able to offer the slightest resistance.

On Alex’s side, there were 20 squires ranked well-trained soldiers while on the bandit’s side there were barely any ranked warriors.

Within half an hour, they knocked out the entire bandit group and took over the mine.

Alex grabbed a chain lying on the floor and put it onto the burning table and after heating it, he pulled the scarred man and wrapped the chain around his neck.

The man screamed in pain as his neck started to burn and many blisters were formed but Alex didn’t give a damn and dragged him like a dog on the floor.

Max opened the door and looked at Alex’s angry look and somehow guessed what might happen.

Spending some time with Alex could naturally perceive some things about Alex.

Alex can tolerate stealing, pickpocketing or bullying and would just dismiss these crimes with small punishment.

But kidnapping, slave trading, raping, and human trafficking. If you are caught doing these things he will make a hell out of your life until you die.

And even your soul may not live in peace after death cause he wouldn’t even let the dead body rest peacefully.

Tie-down the bandits gather the villagers, miners and those who have been enslaved.

“They will be the judges.”

“Bring him out,” Alex spoke and walked forward patting Max.

But he turned back to see Max raising the scarred man but flinched seeing Alex’s cold gaze.

“Your Highness, I am bringing him,” Max answered in a confused tone.

“Just drag him on the ground. A beast should be treated as a beast. Moreover, if you heard his tales, I am sure you would have already chopped and hacked his body into countless pieces.”Alex spoke and turned to leave.
