บท 396: 396. The Dark Truth about Zenithans

"Oh, I won't kill you this easily."

Orion's voice rang in his mind.

"I will make you feel all the pain one can feel. You felt it, right? The pain I inflicted on you just now? It was just the beginning—the real thing is about to start."

The man panicked and immediately cried, begging Orion. "Please don't do this! That pain is the worst I have ever felt—please!"

"Of course, that pain is the worst," Orion chuckled in his mind. "It's the pain I inflicted on your mind."

The man trembled as he recalled the pain he had just felt. It was beyond anything he had ever experienced, to the point that he would prefer death over going through it again.

"But if you want, I won't kill you. I'll even spare you. The only condition is that you tell me who you are, what you are, and what all those men are doing here."

The man became silent, as if he were pondering something.
