While Simon and Akaza were having their conversation, another conversation was going on in a dark and cruel room.
This room is called the Black Covenant Room, and in this room, there were seven individuals.
If Simon were here, he'd recognize three, and the condition of these three was rather... disturbing.
Agramormos, Belafar, and Tibat were all chained to the ceiling of the room.
They were completely naked, whip marks, cuts, and bruises could be seen on their bodies.
Blood flowed from these injuries down their bodies, all the way to the tip of their toes. But their blood did not fall to the ground.
No
It fell to a clay bowl that held a crimson red flame.
Whenever their blood fell to the flame, the flame would rise and its tip would burn the soles of their feet, causing them immense pain.
One would think that they would scream, but they could only make muffled noises as their mouths were covered with clothes.
