Chapter 1044

(Unedited)

…

Cling! Cling!

Click! Clack!

The sound of dangling keys could be heard and then the lock of the large wooden prison door being opened, reverberated inside the small prison cell. Then the door slowly opened, as a large head peeks inside.

The burly man opened the door and excitement could be seen in his eyes.

Last night, Big Kan tried to beat up the child and break his arm. He did not go too much and just like to sound out if the boss would be angry. However, it seems that the boss did not care. And so this morning, he is determined to play with the child to his heart's content.

What he likes the most other than beating up and killing people is torturing young children.

For some unknown reason, it actually gives him a sense of pleasure whenever he could hear the sound of painful wails coming from those children more than the adults. It was like some kind of euphoria that makes his body shiver in delight.

Last night, he could almost not sleep upon thinking of ways that he could torture the kid. He would make it so that the kid would not die, but would be in intense pain and would beg him over and over again.

After planning what he should do last night, he is now set to enjoy himself in his deprave torturing of the young child.

As he steps inside the small cell, he saw the young boy slumped on the ground. He now noticed that the boy's arm is already bandaged and it seems that the boy is very resilient. This made him even more excited. The more they fight and scream, the more he would enjoy the torture.

"Hehe… It's time for your breakfast little lad… Hmm… It seems that you do not like to eat… This is bad. You will become weak and easily faint, this is not acceptable…" he said as he saw the untouched food on the side.

With a menacing glare at the unmoving figure, Big Kan strode towards the young boy while extending his large hands towards the child.

But then suddenly, he stopped. He turns around and saw that the door is still open. A slight grin appears on his face and carefully closes the prison door. He even locked it from the inside using the key which he put inside the pocket of his trousers.

Then he carefully closes the viewing port of the thick wooden prison door.

"Hehe… We don't want anyone to disturb us, right?" he muttered with a sinister smile appearing on his face.

After doing that, he takes out some of the tools he brought with him from his side pouch. Wrapped in a leather bundle, he has prepared many tools for torturing his victims in there.

He carefully spread the leather bundle on the ground and upon seeing the tools… a slight smile appears on his face.

"Hey, little one… Are you awake? You and I are going to play a game today… I call this game… Crying game… Hehe…" He said while looking at the unmoving youth.

When he did not hear any response from the boy, his face turned ugly, and quickly stood up. He took a step and prepares his foot to kick the young boy. Last night he was able to control that kick so the boy did not suffer that much. But today he is determined to deliver a kick that can cause intense pain but is not lethal.

Swoosh!!!

Bam!

The ground on the small cell suddenly shook, followed by a low grunting pain.

Argghhh!!!

But the young child is still lying on the ground while in front of him also lays the big figure of Big Kan.

The one who fell on the ground is actually Big Kan, and this situation made him feel a little baffled. He was clearly aiming for the boy's side at that time but by a strange event, he suddenly discovered that he actually missed the boy by a hair's breadth.

With anger in his heart, Big Kan glared at the seemingly unconscious young boy.

He stretched his big hands to grab the boy, but by doing so, he discover that the boy seem to be far from him. He tried his best to grab the kid, but he is unable to.

His eyes turned frosty. He did not know what is happening, but he could sense that there is something wrong. He quickly tried to look around him, and this time, his expression changed. That is because he suddenly found that everything around him suddenly became huge. It was like he shrunk too little that he is like an ant.

Big Kon's face turned pale upon seeing this. He began to panic and tried to move his body. This time, he discovered that his joints are unable to move. He struggled hard but it seems that there is an invisible force trying to constrain him.

He now wanted to shout, but it was futile.

Sensing the danger in his surroundings, Big Kan did not hesitate to tap in his Ki. Although Big Kan looks like a brute, yet his power is not something to scoff at.

Big Kan is actually has a level 3 Ki power. This means that in the gang that he belongs to, he is considered as one of the powerhouses.

After tapping into his Ki power, he discovered that his strength and the bindings around him suddenly seem to loosen a bit. He flings his arms and then he feels that he seem to have hit something.

Thud!

Ahhh…

Cough! Cough!

He heard the sound of the boy moaning in pain and coughing.

His eyes went wide as he could somewhat feel that the strange thing that is happening to him is caused by the kid.

And so he tried to stand up but the ground suddenly began moving which made him unable to stand stably so he can just fall to the ground once again.

"You coward! If I get my hands on you, I will strip the skin off from your bones… I will make sure to torture you and your father… Hahaha…" Big Kan suddenly shouted in anger.

He felt a bit humiliated at what is happening to him.

Then his eyes went wide in realization…

"You… No… this can't be true… You are a mere waste. A boy without Ki in his body, trash among trash… How… how could you be a runemaster?" he said while trying to stand up.

But it was futile, no matter how strong he was no matter how hard he struggle, it seems that he is unable to control his own body and could not help but lay on the ground and began panting.

Meanwhile, Xin Ja picks himself up from the ground.

He was accidentally hit when Big Kan suddenly wave his hand. As that time, he noticed that when Big Kan exerted his Ki, the formation he made actually became weak. So he has no choice but to quickly reinforce it by writing another set of runes. But he was accidentally hit which almost made him pass out.

Xin Ja quickly got up and his sudden movement made him cough a mouthful of blood.

"I have underestimated him… My skill in rune formation is still not enough to hold down those who are in the 3rd level…" he thought as he wipes the blood off his mouth.

Xin Ja crawls to the side and goes around the huge body of Big Kan who is lying unmoving on the ground.

The formation he set is a beguiling formation which is like the one he set up in their home. Luckily for him, he has already set up and Ki gathering formation beforehand and that has reinforced the strength of the array of runes.

Xin Ja saw the tools on the side and could not help but feel a bit scared. He knew that if he was not able to create the beguiling formation, then he is sure that the big man will be able to hurt him really bad. Upon thinking to this point, Xin Ja could not help but feel a bit scared. He wanted to run away from this place as soon as possible and find his father. However, how could he?

Without a choice, Xin Ja decided to try and gather the tools.

When he walks to the door, he remembers that the guy actually locked the door.

"This… I should take the keys from him slowly…" he thought as he gritted his teeth.

Without the key, he would not be able to open the door.

And so, he carefully approached the lying figure of Big Kan.

Although the senses of Big Kan are in turmoil that he did not know his left from his right, yet this guy could still hurt him accidentally.

So he has to tread carefully.

Upon approaching the side Xin Ja began searching for the keys. He discovered that the keys are on the man's left side pocket.

He carefully extended his small hand into the pocket and tried to take the keys.

But before he could take it out, Xin Ja discovered that a large hand is already swinging towards his face.
