Kapitel 72: Conquest { XXXII }

Only after beating Fagin to his satisfaction did Ren let him go.

Fagin remained on the ground, breathing really fast, his face swollen from the harsh punches Ren unleashed on him without mercy.

Ren glared at his flinching figure on the ground before grabbing him up again and pushing him toward his secret chamber, where he claimed the staff of authority was.

They passed through narrow passages with torches on the walls, lighting it up.

After walking for a few more seconds, they arrived in front of a door made of hard steel with a weird and secure-looking lock.

"This is the secret chamber," Fagin said immediately after they arrived.

"What are you waiting for then? Open the door and bring out the staff of authority," Ren snorted.

But Fagin didn't budge and only stared at the door, lost for words and unsure of what action to take next.
