Bab 63: Pain, An Unexpected Liberator

The most traumatizing experience for Northern was the days he spent in the prison mine.

A spineless teenager, captured by a monster and thrown into a prison where he was forced to mine red crystals continuously night after night.

The only time he got to rest was when the monster guarding him went to pack up the heaps of mined crystal shards.

His food had tasted like shit.

He had almost died… and he had promised himself that he'd kill these two monsters that caused his life to become a living hell.

Then, one night, under a sky as gray as any other night, he was marched to the battlefield, not given any choice but to serve as a meat shield for the monsters of the Red Mine.

Earning them barely a minute to fight.

As his body shivered from the pain caused by the red crystals, Northern felt the fog shrouding his mind being barrelled through.
