As Duan Cai walked into the mansion he slowly followed the sounds of a man grunting out in pain and the scent of blood in the air. He could easily sense a slight killing intent and could tell instantly that it was from Leon while he was torturing the captive in another room. The man was clearly not willing to give up any information easily for the sounds to be so consistent in the mansion. It was a loud noise in which Duan Cai did not care for. The sounds and smell was something that brought back memories of his past world. In his lifetime he could not count how many people had died to his own doing under his rule of that world. It started to make him feel a bit agitated for some reason because of the mortal emotions starting to well up inside of him so he quickened his pace.
"Any progress?" Duan Cai blurted out as he burst forth into the room to see Leon towering in front of the tied up captive.
The man glared at Duan Cai with a cold expression that would make a normal man shudder. It was clear from the man's tri colored eyes that he would kill every one of them if he could. Whether it was from the torturing or simply because the Kaen sect had sent him to do it was something that could easily be tossed back and forth as a matter of opinion because they were both very well possible and only the man himself would understand the reason perfectly.
The man's black hair was just long enough to hang down his forehead and cast a shadow over his eyes. His body was dripping blood from cuts where Leon had been torturing him with a dagger. Rips and tears were all over the man's clothes and he looked terribly filthy from the fight earlier against Leon almost as if he had been a bum off the streets at this point. If it was not for his fiery aura, determination in his eyes, and the fierce power behind his killing intent to fight back against them it would be easy to mistake him as someone that had just been pulled in off the street.
"Boss, this man is hopeless.. At this point it may be easier just to kill him." Leon stated as he stared at the wounded man in front of them.
Duan Cai glanced at Leon and Lester for a moment before thinking to himself for a moment. He slowly took a step towards the man until he was towering over him. The man was clearly bleeding to death at this point, but his will to live was strong and fighting against it with every fiber of who he was. It was something Duan Cai could admire in a person and he found it incredibly rare to find a mortal with such a strong will to survive.
"Name?" Duan Cai bluntly asked the man with a cold stare as a golden light shone from his eyes. He would have used his killing intent on the man, but he was worried the mortal was too feeble at this point and it could accidentally shatter the mans life to pieces if he exposed him to too much internal force from his own aura.
"Go to hell." The man spat at Duan Cai.
"You dare-!" Leon and Lester both shouted at the same time though they were quickly shut up by Duan Cai raising his hand to silence them both.
Using his hand to slowly wipe the spit from his face he glared at the man with an even colder expression. Slowly his hand raised til he was grasping the man by his neck and lifting him in the air in front of him. The man went to struggle for air except he did not last long before his body was slammed against the floor hard causing blood to splatter from his mouth and wounds everywhere. A faint coughing escaped the man as he still fought to hold on to his thin thread of life before them all.
"I shall ask you once more and if you refuse I shall not only kill you.. I will make it so slow that you will plead for death as I drag you to the edge just to drag you back to life," Duan Cai leaned in to the man's ear as he whispered "over and over again you filthy insect."
There was a strange rumbling noise coming from Duan Cai's throat as if a massive beast was in the room growling at it's prey. His glowing eyes staring down into the man's as he shuddered in fear. The entire room was enveloped in silence aside from the rumbling. They were all in utter shock as the scene of Duan Cai losing his temper towards the man. He was someone who was usually very calm and relaxed but for a first time in front of Leon and Lester he had seemed to loose his temper even if it wasn't to the extreme it was still to a shocking level. They could not have known that Duan Cai had ruled over another world and that being spat on by something of such a low rank to him was something that would push his temper even if he had a bit of admiration for the man's will to live he would not tolerate such disgusting disrespect towards him. He was not a mere commoner mortal, he was a highly respected deity!
"Bullet." The man closed his eyes and turned his head away as he finally uttered out his name to the beast that had him pinned by the throat to the floor. A shudder came from his body as he listened to the beastly sounds coming from Duan Cai and felt like the name Royal Dragon really fit the boy. At that moment he could not bare to look at him above him because he feared Duan Cai would really eat him alive like a real dragon.
Human? This man is a devil, a beast! The man thought to himself as the sounds echoed in his head.
"Great! We have a start! Now stay still or else you're going to die and it will be painful as hell." Duan Cai smirked with a cold expression as he slowly placed his palm over Bullet's forehead.
A golden light exploded from Duan Cai's palm as it faded into the man's head. It looked as if the light was wrapping golden chains around Bullet's body as the man screamed in pain. Bullet's fiery aura burst forth from his body as it struggled to fight back against the golden chain aura that was trapping his soul. It was a process that felt like it went on forever, but realistically only lasted a mere five minutes before both their aura's faded away and the room was silent once again. Bullet had fallen unconscious from the excruciating pain.
"When he wakes up make sure he gets cleaned up and find him a proper outfit." Duan Cai said as he slowly left the room.
"What.. Wait! Boss, what did you do to him?!" Leon dashed out the door behind Duan Cai to ask him but the question came out in a loud and panicked tone. Lester was following them both as he was wondering as well what happened to the man.
"Simple.. I just got myself a new dog." Duan Cai smirked without looking back as he walked on.
