"Do you know why I didn't take your heart?" Soverick asked his incapacitated opponent, but he wasn't expecting an answer. Strung was in too much pain to cobble together an intelligent mental transmission.
"It is so that you can live to experience what's about to happen. I want you alive and well while I do what I'm about to do next. I assure you that it is not going to be pleasant."
He released Strung's figure to the ground and it fell with a thump. It will be too easy for Soverick to kill Strung but that will be letting him off easy.
Soverick looked at everyone else and said, "This is for everyone one of you as much as it is for Strung. Feel free to stop me if you want. Just know that I'll make you join in with him."
The entire hall was silent. The fight had taken less than 5 seconds. It looked like a mana entity had bullied a vitality core junior. It felt unreal that that kind of strength was displayed by another vitality core refiner like them. But Soverick wasn't done yet.
