Clifford checked the time, it would soon be daybreak. "Do you have any other plans for them?" He asked Daisy.
"No," Daisy shook her head, even though she resented Casper, she would be convenient with whatever punishment Clifford had for him.
"Alright," he was surprised that Daisy would do nothing to the two, he shrugged his shoulders and proceeded to dragging Casper and Max to a spot.
"There's something you should know," Daisy stood up and said to Clifford.
"What's that?"
"The person that's torturing your friend, he is the one," Daisy pointed at Casper. She was the healer that Casper had always forced to heal his victims, she hated Casper for doing this to her. She was full of resentment toward Casper for always forcing her to indulge in such acts of hurting people.
Casper lamented bitterly when he heard Daisy, she had put him in deeper trouble.
When Clifford heard her, he erupted with anger. He grabbed the weak Casper and slammed him against the wall, the latter vomited blood due to the heavy collision. Clifford was very mad at Casper, even though he was suspicious of Casper, he lacked evidence. Now that he had been told that Casper was the culprit, his eyes became bloodshot due to extreme anger, he furiously punched Casper across the face multiple times. The weak and defenceless Casper could do nothing, he kept receiving punches to his face till he became almost unrecognizable.
Max broke out in a cold sweat when he saw how Clifford had furiously beaten Casper, he was grateful he wasn't in Casper's position, he just wished that Clifford would not make him suffer for Casper's misdeeds too, he had already suffered enough.
After Clifford had punched Casper to his satisfaction, he finally stopped. He then grabbed the latter by the shirt and brought the latter's bloody face to his own face, "How does it feel to be in the position of being tortured?" He asked Casper with a furious expression.
"Wait, let me do to him, what he always forced me to do to his victims," Daisy said in a cold manner and approached Clifford and Casper. When Casper heard what Daisy had said, he knew what he meant and broke out in a cold sweat, never in his life had he thought he would be in a position like this. Instead of resigning to change his bad deeds, he resented Daisy and Clifford more, he swore that he would revenge.
Clifford had no clue of what Daisy meant but he allowed her to have her way, the latter grabbed the head of Casper and chanted spells silently, she mustered every energy left in her to heal Casper's injuries. The injuries on Casper's head started to heal at a visible rate, her healing ability was pretty great. Clifford furrowed his brows when he saw what Daisy had done, he didn't understand at first but he finally understood when Daisy told him to torture Casper again.
Clifford was shocked, "so this is how you torture your victims, what a horrifying method." He now resented Casper more, he furiously gave Casper an uppercut. The latter was sent flying by the uppercut, he spurted blood in the process. Clifford didn't Casper rest a minute, he forcibly slapped the latter on the face, Casper was sent flying again, he crashed into a wall. Clifford grabbed him and threw him toward the ceiling, Casper crashed against the ceiling before he fell heavily to the ground, the damaged ceiling even fell on him.
At this moment, Casper really wished he could die, Clifford kept punching, kicking and slapping him till he could not even fell pain anymore. After Clifford had vex all his anger on Casper, he grabbed him Max and Casper by their legs and dragged them towards the entrance of the academy's arena. He asked Daisy to get some strong vines from the remaining ones on the floor, she did so and followed him.
When he reached the entrance of the academy's arena, he stripped Casper and Max's clothes off their body, he left them almost naked, he then collected a long and strong vine from Daisy, he tied one end of the vine to Casper's right ankle and the other end of the vine to Max's ankle. He then used the rest of the vines to tie their entire body which completely restricted their movements, only their heads was spared. Casper and Max could only watch helplessly, they had no strength to retaliate, the gauntlets had sucked their energy.
After Clifford had ensured that the vines has been tied tightly around their ankles, he hung the two on to the arena's gate in an inverted manner. He would leave them hanging there till daybreaks when people would see them. He had simply planned to humiliate them, Casper and Max were terrified, their reputation would be tarnished when daybreaks. This was what the two had always done to people they had feuds with, Clifford was doing the same to them, letting them taste their own medicine
"Please Clifford, I'll turn over a new leaf, I promise. Please untie me," Max pushed his pride aside and begged Clifford. He could not afford his reputation of being the infamous Max be tarnished. He finally knew how it felt to be in a situation like this, he would become a laughing stock in the entire academy, the shame of begging Clifford to spare him is nothing compared to the shame he would have to face when his reputation finally got tarnished.
Seeing Max shamelessly begging Clifford, Casper also put his pride aside and begged Clifford, he even shamelessly promised to never cross paths with Clifford anymore, but Clifford turned a deaf ear to all their shameless pleads, he walked held Daisy hand and walked off, they both hid in a place nearby. They would wait till people would see the two guys they had hung.
Only the faint pleading cries of Casper and Max filled the area, the two stopped crying when they sighted a boy walking through, they immediately called out to him to help them.
"Hey!!! Hey!! You over there, pls come help," the two cried desperately. They believed luck had smiled on them and prayed that the girl would save them from pending shame.
The girl heard their faint cries, she looked toward the direction and she was shocked to see two people hung in an inverted manner, she immediately rushed to help. When she got there she took a closer look at the face of the two, she recognized them instantly, the infamous Max,that always terrorized the academy and the rich brat, Casper. Why would she help the notorious pair? She immediately brought out her phone and took their pictures at various angles.
She was really fortunate today, she couldn't believe her luck, she had been roaming around this early morning if she could found anything unusual to make a headline. She was one of the journalists of the academy but her reports and contents had always been overshadowed by popular journalists that were popular than her, posting this would surely shoot her into fame at the academy. When the lights from the camera flashed at Max and Casper, they were stunned, they immediately started to beg the girl not to post the pictures. They had thought she could be their saviour but it was otherwise, when she recognized them, she had no intention to do help them anymore.
After she was satisfied with the shots she had taken, she gleefully uploaded the pictures to her news feed and captioned it, "THE RICH BRAT AND MAX FINALLY GETS A TASTE OF THEIR OWN MEDICINE"
Within minutes of uploading it, she earned an outrageous amount of likes, comments, shares and followers. More people kept swarming to her page.
"Who could do that to the both of them?"
"This is insane."
"They deserved this."
"Hard lesson for them both."
"I have to witness this myself."
More comments were being posted under her post, the post had gone viral in an instant. In a few minutes, students started to come in large numbers to witness the scene. Casper and Max became a laughing stock, they were the talk of the academy. Clifford and Daisy quietly left unnoticed when they ensured that their aim had been achieved.
"I'll kill you, Clifford! I'll fucking kill you," Casper gritted his teeth angrily.
