Chapter 1686: Complacent

The world fell into silence. 

Mordecai, Kirvag and Jurkaa felt as though they were First Heaven natives stepping onto the Ninth Heaven for the first time, their inner organs were devastated and their bones were crushed. 

The world watched in horror as they first lost a layer of skin, then another, until they were left with nothing more than muscle fibers, and then even they began to lose their own layers. 

They were stripped down to their very souls, losing their eyes, their flesh, and soon even layers of their bones began to be peeled away piece by piece, step by step. 

It was the worst and most horrible pain they could have imagined. 

And yet, with a flick of Ryu's wrist, it vanished. 

When their senses came back, they lay in a crater, soaked in their own piss and sweat. They shook, the fear being seared into their very minds. 

"Do you know why I didn't kill them?" Ryu smiled, looking at Elena.
