"Tell me, the black knight. Where did your teacher get this pendant? Depending on your answer, I might let you go for today."
Kazuto snorted in disbelief at that. "You mean you'll come back to kill me the next day?"
Zen grinned at the young Elementalist knight's guess. "I was thinking about coming back next week, but I can come tomorrow if you want."
"…" Kazuto could only grith his teeth in fury as he tried to untie the chains binding his body.
Alas, this chain suppressed all the points of his cultivation channel. Thus, Kazuto couldn't use his energy at all. He couldn't even summon the white cub as if the door between his body to his astral dimension was tightly closed.
What kind of chain is this? His grandmother never told him about this magic technique or how to get out of this chain.
"Grandmother? Whose grandmother?"
Zen's question surprised Kazuto, not realizing that the man could hear his inner voice.
