The three other beings who appeared were dressed in a similar fashion as the one choking the veyzari.
"Speak."
The one choking the veyzari demanded, tightening his grip. The veyzari had no will to struggle anymore. With his powers sealed, he was at their mercy.
"I-I don't know." The veyzari managed to say. "I only remember the universe being here. Clearly, something or someone must have destroyed it!"
"Obviously…" The being growled in annoyance.
"Why are you even wasting time with this lesser being?." One of the other three chipped in, their tone just as cold. "Read his soul and get this over with. We still have to investigate the origins of this energy lingering around."
The veyzari's heart skipped a beat the moment the other suggested peering into his soul.
'Shit!' The veyzari panicked.
Regardless, his situation was extremely grim. Even if he told them everything of his own free will, the chances of them letting him go would be null.
