Bab 396: C396. Lord of The Dead

 —A few hours earlier.

—Underneath the Heartrail family's mansion.

 A black portal whose existence distorted the space around itself, slowly closed behind a figure as she walked back into the underground hallway. 

After sending all 35 Dark Elves slaves through the Gate to a section of the underground labyrinth, the only other living being left with Rain was Number 10, who was currently still stuck in a temporal stasis caused by the magic artifact, the Hourglass of Chronos. 

 Rain silently stared at the frozen member of the organization she was quite interested in as she thought about the various ways to get the information she needed out of her as quickly as possible, but surprisingly came up short.

 Normally she would be able to fairly easily force the information out of her target but as Number 10 was a high-ranking Numbered elite from such an important organization, she naturally would have several mental protective spells cast on her.
