Nathan and Evelyn had arrived at the prison, looking at the chained left guardian. His body was a mess.
All his fingernails had been pulled off. A few of his teeth had also gone, leaving behind enough teeth to speak. His right eyeball was present on the table to their right.
There were many more gruesome sights if they lowered their gaze even further. Yet, despite everything they had done, the left guardian remained tight-lipped.
"I'm sorry, Your Majesty."
"He hasn't opened his mouth the whole time."
The emperor maintained his resolute face as if he weren't bothered by the sight or the smell. He said, "It looks like we have no choice but to go with a unique method."
The emperor contemplated for a moment before nodding his head. There was no other choice.
If the left guardian were still alive, he would definitely hold a grudge. Besides, the death of their experts had to be explained as well, so he already planned to kill the left guardian after he got the confession.
