There is a prison built in a circular shape.

 

It has a similar structure to the Panopticon, but the difference is that there is no central watchtower. The circular prison was built so that the victims could look at each other.

 

*

 

Room 1 is a scorching hell. Both the bottom and walls are heated enough to cook the proteins. The child locked in room 1 is getting better by the minute.

 

The process of getting burned, developing blisters, bursting, and sticking to the skin again is repeated. Room 1 has a continuous healing spell active, so no victim will lose their life.

 

However, the body, which had repeatedly been cooked and burned, was gradually losing its shape after repeated destruction and restoration. His lower body already looks like slime.

 

*

 

Room 2 is a starvation hell. Room 2 has everything provided. Interesting books, comfortable beds, clean toilets and bathing facilities. However, there was only one thing: they were not provided with anything to eat.

 

Hunger continues. However, the victim in room 2 was receiving nutrition through magical power, so there was no danger to his life even if he did not eat.

 

The human body, which evolved to eat something, constantly sends signals. The smell of well-cooked meat is coming from the room right next door. She cried in disgust as she saw herself drooling at the smell of her friend her being cooked.

 

*

 

Room 3 has thorns growing all over the floor. Whether lying down or sitting, there is no comfortable position that does not cause pain. The victim looks like a cactus.

 

Room 4 has water leaking from the ceiling. Just before the victim falls asleep, a drop of water falls from the sky and hits his forehead her. The victim has not been able to sleep until now.

 

In Room 5, nightmares periodically appear and surprise you. For the victim, it repeats the most horrific memories and then disappears.

 

Room 6 is…

 

*

 

Room 12 is Knot Hell. Although no torture was performed on her, her spirit was loosely connected to the children in all her rooms. Everyone’s pain and suffering tricked in little by little.

 

Feeling ripe, starving, pricked by thorns, and unable to sleep, she could not let out a scream. It’s not that she wasn’t troubled. However, it was because she felt sorry for her friends.

 

She sees her friends screaming right in front of her. I could clearly see her begging to be killed.

 

Even indirectly felt pain is this painful.

 

How much suffering must it be for the children who are actually suffering?

 

Let’s not be harsh. I have no right to cry. The pain I suffer is the only part of it. I, the one with the least pain, have to endure it.

 

We need to let them know that they can overcome it. I have to be a source of hope to all my other friends.

 

You can’t cry.

 

⋯⋯⋯⋯.

 

It was natural to feel depressed when you saw someone crying, and to feel sad when you saw someone in pain. Because emotions are somewhat contagious.

 

The female, who knew that fact well, was in this prison full of pain and screams. She even smiled at herself. She wanted to help cheer up other friends.

 

She smiled, even if she had to force it.

 

Eleven friends look at the smiling female and see that she is not suffering any torture. That’s what she thought. So, I hated it. Why can she be so comfortable alone?

 

At the very least, they say we shouldn’t laugh while looking at other people’s pain.

 

It was a small misunderstanding.

 

⋯⋯⋯⋯.

 

It is difficult to convert the pain an individual feels into numbers.

 

Just as something that is not a big deal to some, can be a big hurt to others. Each person has a different standard for pain.

 

However, the synchronization rate set for females is 50%. Because they were feeling half the pain of all eleven victims, the wizards of the Purple Magic Tower calculated that their stress level was five times higher than that of the other victims.

 

Still, being able to endure it. As expected, there was an excellent character in the lineage of Duke Eurensto? Or was it rewarding to have as a victim the genius who would lead the future Magic Tower?

 

The ceremony went smoothly and exceeded expectations.

“….”

 

“Did you doze off?”

 

“Ah, yes…”

 

Purple Magic Tower Zhou Yuna rubbed her eyes, pretending to be sleepy. But actually, she wasn’t sleepy at all. She was just haunted by her memories of her, creeping up from deep inside her mind of her.

 

Some memories were far from oblivion.They put a lid on it, hid it, and pretended everything was okay, but the slightest trigger could cause it to flood at any time. Now was that time.

 

“What were you talking about?”

 

“I reported to the 2nd Prince. I think I need to go to the Duke of Red Taste’s mansion. What should I do? So…”

 

Bang. Grumble.

 

“So, we are going to lure the Capital Knights.”

 

The 2nd prince opened the door and entered the room. She was accompanied by several National Defense Agency agents. After quickly assembling the whiteboard, the agents attached a brief map and materials.

 

“Near the Duke of Redburn’s villa, which is the operational area, is the headquarters of the Capital Knights. This is the building where you, crazy wizard, were captured.”

 

“Oh, then what about the red-hot mansion next to it?”

 

“Yes. It is a mansion that is no longer in use and is only loosely maintained, with people being sent out to clean it about once a month. You said the rituals of warlocks take place there, right?”

 

“Yes. According to the information I obtained.”

 

The 2nd Prince said, pointing out a point on the map with her finger.

 

“I can’t move it myself. However, I will cause a disturbance and remove members of the Capital Knights. So don’t get caught. Or even if you get caught… Find solid circumstantial evidence. Then you can cover it .”

 

“Yep.”

 

“Otherwise, I would recommend quitting. I have contacted His Majesty the Emperor. The addition of sublimation-level forces to the warlock forces is an emergency. It may take some time, but a ‘male knight’ will probably be deployed.”

 

“….”

 

Still, will you go? The 2nd prince asked that with his eyes her her her.

 

The Purple Magic Tower hesitated for a moment, then nodded his head. The nightmare was shouting. The friends in my memories were still shouting. Please erase it.

 

Ask us to erase all those who made us suffer, the pain, and ourselves who feel the pain. If so, this was her mission.

 

As long as she remembers that tragedy, it is a revenge that she can never back down from. Revenge took at the hands of others was not revenge. So, me.

 

Yuna clenched her fists so that her nails dug into her flesh.

 

“…The Imperial Guard does not go outside the Golden Ring. The ‘male knight’ is also on a business trip. So there are two risk factors. One is the power of the warlock. And the other is the leader of the capital knights.

 

“Captain of the Metropolitan Knights… “What kind of person is he?”

 

“He is a man who has reached sublimation. There are many words that can describe him. ‘Budget destroyer’, ‘walking earthquake’, ‘haunted ghost’, and above all, ‘battle maniac’.”

 

“Are you a battle fanatic?”

 

The second prince thought of the leader of the Knights Templar in his mind. She is a battle-crazy woman who challenges male knights again and again, and when a strong-looking guy gets involved, she rushes in and watches.

 

Almost all of her were members of the Metropolitan Knights with a strong sense of justice, but she was a heretic who stood out on her own.

 

So, if the purple magic tower master catches the eye of the leader of the capital knights, a fight will almost certainly break out.

 

Since he likes to hit and hit people to the limit rather than kill them, there would be no unfortunate incidents such as attempts on his life… But it would be a problem.

 

“According to what is known, the head of the Capital Knights’ magical power is ridiculously high. It is said that he has a style that pushes him to his weight class.”

 

The 2nd Prince had her Defense Bureau agents briefly brief them on the information they had uncovered. The interior structure of the mansion, the route is relatively less crowded, the route is safe, and the location of the base that can be used in case of emergency.

 

“Good luck.”

 

And words of hope for the success of the operation.

 

The plan was complete, and now all that was left to do was move.

 

—- —- —- — —-

 

When “Lamb” Left, Maximus, Duke of Redburn, played chess alone. There are only black pieces on the board. The white horse was only in the duke’s head.

 

Tuk. The white queen crosses the battlefield.

 

“If the base of the underground waterway is destroyed, they will come to my next mansion. No matter which path I chose, I would have been led to the mansion…”

 

Tuk. Throw bait to attract a white queen.

 

“The leader of the Knights Templar is like an angry wild boar, so a slight push on the back is enough. Using the phone planted within the Order, I was informed that the Purple Magic Tower lord had trespassed without permission… And that he would soon be heading to the Duke of Redburn’s mansion. “It sheds.”

 

Tuk. Use the black queen to restrict the white queen’s movement path.

 

“Even if we leave the leader alone, the Capital Knights themselves need to pay attention. There shouldn’t be any distractions around when hunting a target.”

 

Tuk. Use your phone to shake your gaze.

 

“The Chief of the Capital Knights recently had a serious accident. Now is the time to put the concept of’we must refrain from damaging property’in his stupid head. In that case, there is a high possibility that the Chief of the Knights will take the purple magic tower lord to a distant place to fight.”Thud. The white queen left the white king’s side.

 

There was no piece that could protect the king now. Duke Redburn quietly moved the black knight forward.

 

“If the commander of the knights drops the purple matopju far away from the target, you go and kill it. My son.”

 

In the shadows, a man with crimson hair that had turned white took a step forward and knelt on one knee in front of Duke Redburn.

 

From Noble mtl dot com

 

“Yes, Father. Roderus, the second son of the Redburn ducal family, the ‘Nightmare of Mages’, accepts the order.”

 

He had the ability to directly attack and destroy magic power, so he was the perfect choice to use now that the target was a mage.
