Is that a Wisp?

"I shouldn't have allowed you to escape?" Raka grumbled as she smacked her hand on her body, enacting a flurry of hits, breaking off all the ice while increasing her body's temperature using the action.

"Allowed me to escape? Quite the interesting choice of words you have there." Krune laughed, his expression still a smile as he asked, "By the way, I was wondering why you tried to torture me instead of asking me about the details normally?"

"Shouldn't Gehen have informed you of my arrival?"

"Who's Gehen?" Raka was confused all of a sudden. However, she didn't allow herself to be distracted, thinking that everything he was doing was Krune's scheme to catch her off guard. Grabbing hold of her Demon Arms, an axe with a curved head, she watched it absorb her blood, injecting her with an energy that raised her abilities to a higher level.

She gently stomped on the floor, flashing before Krune to hack him. In response, Krune raised his hand, condensing a column of ice that blocked the attack. Even though it shattered in response, he continued to generate more ice, eventually stopping the axe before it reached his hand.

In exchange, his ice coursed through the axe, spreading over Raka's hand, causing her to retract the weapon in response. She then flailed it around a couple of times, hitting the walls when she noticed that the ice was stronger than she had assumed..

Left with no other choice, she smashed it on her knees, breaking it off eventually. Though, when she did that, Krune watched her actions with a smile. While doing so, Raka was able to perceive a formless killing intent envelop her, increasing in intensity as time passed. The killing intent was as if she was being boiled in a bowl of oil.

'This guy is dangerous!' She was assured of this fact now, seeping in even more of her blood into her Demon Arms, causing her body to emanate a tinge of blood mist. No longer able to hold back to prevent collateral damage, she unleashed her full strength, slamming a kick into Krune's chest instantly.

A layer of ice appeared in her way as she pummelled through it with her kick, eventually reaching Krune, sending him flying. However, she saw his hand flicker once again before she flinched in pain, watching the palm-sized Cloud Whale piercing the side of her neck.

Just like before, it burst before she could pull it out, freezing her to a certain extent. On top of that, Krune no longer seemed willing to give her time to get rid of the ice anymore as the Cloud Whale appeared one after another, piercing numerous places on her body.

And every single time, it exploded after injecting some Frozen Blood into her body. Around ten of such attacks later, even if she wished to move, her body had considerably slowed down. Even if she tried to move and increase her body temperature, a thin layer of ice began to form on her.

No matter how many times she broke it, ice continued to form on her body. It was being generated from within her. As if to mock her efforts, the Cloud Whale continued to pierce her body in numerous locations, eventually causing her to stumble to the ground, no longer able to move.

Her body was numb now. She was unable to feel anything, feeling her head spin as her blood wasn't circulating enough. As her body turned still, an air needle arrived all of a sudden, piercing her left arm first.

As the air needle slowly moved up and down, her left arm was fully severed.

"Gah!" Raka screamed upon seeing the scene. But in actuality, her body was numb to the extent she hadn't even felt any pain. A couple of seconds later, her right arm came off, followed by her legs.

She had now been crippled. Calmly, Krune walked out of a hole, brushing off the dust on him as he arrived before Raka, looking undamaged.

Upon seeing his condition, Raka was unable to believe it, "H-How? My kick should have caved your chest in. Just who the hell are you?!"

"A hero," Krune replied. "Or at least, that was what I was supposed to be once I arrived here. Unfortunately, your and that other guy's actions changed things."

"So, you want revenge, then." Raka scoffed, closing her eyes. "Fine, do what you want with me."

"Where did you keep my tablet and armor?" Krune asked, frowning when he saw Raka remaining silent, acting as if she had resigned herself to her fate. He then turned around, watching Hazak dragging a limbless man and asked, "Are you done?"

"Sir Pestlor, he hasn't spoken a word after being defeated." Hazak then asked, "What shall I do? Shall I torture them? Or, shall I capture their families and torture them before their eyes? Will that make them speak?"

"That won't be necessary," Krune said, gazing out. "Someone who's willing to speak would have arrived by now."

And right as he said that, there was a loud rumble as a vibration coursed through the gigantic prison building.

"Let's go out and meet them. Drag the two with you." Krune calmly brushed off the dust that fell on him, arriving before the wall as he kicked it once, revealing the outside. He then leaped out, landing on the road with a tremendous impact.

Hazak landed behind him with an even greater impact, carrying the two captured humans with it.

Through his Sonic Radar, Krune noticed numerous humans positioned around him, hidden within various buildings, intending to attack him the moment a signal was given. In fact, most of them were strong, seemingly at Tier 5.

The peak power of the entire city seemed to have gathered at the place. However, Krune didn't care about them for the time being, focusing on the two individuals standing before him.

Even without the Sonic Radar, he was able to notice that the two people before him were at the peak of Tier 5. And that wasn't all, but they were also stronger than any human at the peak of Tier 5. Upon seeing them, Krune closed his eyes for a moment as the sounds of an ocean rumbling intensified. Opening his eyes, he asked, entering a battle stance, "Are you the City Lord?"
