Chapter 164: The Black Room Punishment

Viktor had never killed anyone without any reason and that became his new weakness. Rae thought that he could get away and be forgiven by Viktor even if he betrayed him. He thought that he\'d only wipe his memories and keep him close since he was also an important guardian of the universe.

Buy little did he know that his fragment was nothing but a fake one.

Viktor had access to heavenly magic spells so faking one was nothing special. He just replaced it with a fake one and devoured the real one.

He kept the fact secret even from Adonis because there was no need for it. He knew Rae will betray him one day so he just let him hang around with them until the time is finally up.

Viktor glared at his stomach and said, "You have a pretty parasite deep inside your stomach. But it\'s dead so it won\'t be able to send any information now."

Rae spoke with his trembling voice but it wasn\'t loud enough to reach Viktor\'s ears. So he simply read his record and answered, "Rae, I respect your wrong choice. I\'m a great guy so I won\'t stop you from going against me. The thing I\'m doing it\'s just a defence mechanism of mine. Of course, you can leave, if you can."

Viktor then stood up from his chair and said, "It\'s been a while since I\'m stuck in this place for you. So, I\'ve prepared a gift for you to accompany me and entertain me for all these years. You\'d be very delighted to receive it."

Adonis came inside the torture room after knocking and said, "Master, the room is ready. Shall we move him to the new room?"

Adonis was with Viktor for more than 20 years in the \'time trap\' room. So his hair grew long enough to reach his knee. Also, his way of talking changed because of the long education he received from his master. In just 20 years, he covered more than 10 percent of his total study which usually takes gods more than a million years. Viktor was also proud of his progress so he frequently gave him infinity mana stones as treats.

It was all for him to grow stronger enough to beat a demigod from the gods\' realm and to prepare him for the succession tournament of gods.

Viktor looked back and said, "You\'re here already. Have you finished your homework?"

"Yes, master. I\'ve finished them all. Then, shall we continue our work? We need to go outside. It\'s been so long that I\'m nearly forgetting how the sun looks."

"Hahaha, you\'re very funny."

Adonis then dragged Rae out of the torture room and threw him into a dark small room. There was no light, no window and no place to sit. It was a huge dark cube with a programmed magic spell that will supply food once a day.

It was a dark room prison only made for Rae to stay, probably forever.

Viktor smiled and said, "It\'s also an anti-suicide room. You can\'t even commit suicide here. So, goodbye, Astraeus light. It was very nice to meet you and I had fun spending those bright days with you, you double-faced psycho."

The door slowly closed in front of Rae and then, he saw the last ray of light in his eyes. His body had an anti-magic stone which was stopping him from using magic. So, he was all left alone by the whole universe, again."

He mumbled, \'How nostalgic. I am here again in the dark place with no ray of light. There\'s no hope, no dream. It\'s just me and this familiar darkness surrounding me. I really hate my other self who always leads me to the wrong path. I guess I made a mistake, again.

This time, nobody will save me.

This time, I will vanish in this absolute darkness.

God has really abandoned me.\'

…

"Master, was that alright to let him live?" Adonis asked right after Viktor closed the door. He again asked, "How long do you intend to keep him locked inside this room?"

Viktor then again unlocked the door and said, "It\'s already been 3 billion years inside this room. It was made by my time acceleration spell. The fastest one I can cast with my current ability. Every minute is one and a half billion years. It\'s been almost 2 minutes since I closed the door. Don\'t you think it\'s enough punishment for someone who betrayed me? Plus, I love to play with my pawns rather than banishing them."

He then kicked the door and the light finally fell on Rae\'s body. He was wildly staring at the blank with a pale face. He looked like someone who had lost the meaning of his life.

Since his fragment was cut off from his body, he no longer had the ability as a guardian. Thus, he even forgot to react to human conversation.

Viktor entered the room and turned on the light which Rae never found.

The room turned into a white cube and suddenly, Rae came back to his senses. He wasn\'t sure what was going on so the only thing that came out of his mouth was, "kill…me."

Viktor smiled and said, "Well hello, Astraeus light. How was your life inside my dark room? Was it fun?"

Rae looked at him with his \'nearly went blind eyes\' because of the light after 5 billion years and said, "You\'re the greatest evil of all living beings. It was my sin to go against you."

Viktor smiled and said, "I\'m glad you finally understood. For me, death is a gift to all living beings. So, I won\'t let anyone die whom I\'ve taken under my wings. You\'re also a part of that. Once you\'re stuck with me, you\'re forever with me even if I\'m going through thousands of reincarnations."

He then grabbed his arm and said, "Come on. Let\'s go out and check the moon. I am sure there is a full moon outside."

Rae stood up and said, "My lord, please show me mercy. I won\'t disappoint you anymore in my life. Please make me your pet dog or whatever. I just wish to leave this room. I don\'t want to..hic…hic…"

"I don\'t..I don\'t want to stay in the darkness anymore…"

He started to cry and again fell on his knee. Adonis was looking elsewhere because the situation was a little uncomfortable.

So Viktor said nothing and they came outside the dimension room. After a long time, the three of them smelt the earthly air and felt the presence of mana around them.

Viktor then said, "Adonis, take care of Rae. I\'m going to bed."

"Yes, master." He then dragged Rae inside the bathroom and Viktor went on his own way. He missed the sky so he went to the balcony and sat on its edge.

The sky was brightened with the silver moon. He looked at it and stared at it for some moment. He then said, "I still hate the moon. It\'s covering all the twinkling stars behind it."

…

The sun came up.

Viktor flipped the pages of the morning newspaper roughly and said, "Why is everything hybrid, hybrid and hybrid? \'Scientific theories of a normal human becoming a hybrid?\' \'hybrids are the beginning of the end of the world?\' \'Hybrids are not even humans so they should die?\' What kind of articles are these? Who wrote these??"

Adonis was listening to his complaints with his eyes closed while enjoying a morning cup of coffee under the bright sunlight.

He then took a sip of his sweet tea and replied, "They are all written by normal humans. They are just jealous and that\'s why they are writing those illogical articles. Don\'t pay any attention to those, my dear master."

Viktor threw the newspaper on the table and said, "Hah… even they wrote an article about me. \'The sudden disappearance of the prodigy of the North family and also his cousin Rae.\' People are sure curious about others\' personal life and stuff."

"That\'s because you dropped from college. And Rae has lost his damn mind. He is still in grave shock for staying in the dark for that long. It will take more than 30 to 40 years for his recovery. Please don\'t put him back in the black room anymore. It\'s just too cruel."

"Cruel than death?" Viktor asked.

"From what I\'m seeing, it\'s an absolute hell. It\'s much worse than death, master."

Viktor chuckled and replied, "I guess I am an evil demigod. Well, you can\'t imagine a world without the opposite. Good and bad are considered good and bad because they both exist. It\'s also the same for light and darkness. You can\'t imagine one of them without the existence of the opposite one."

He closed his eyes to rest and then said, "The darkness helps the light to shine more and reach out to everyone. The light helps to hide the darkness underneath its existence so it won\'t lose its value. Both light and darkness rely on each other in order to maintain the balance. That goes the same for evil and virtue."

Viktor then opened his eyes and looked at the bright sun. He then said, "It\'s not bad to be evil. Because a righteous person will sacrifice his most beloved one for the greater good. The evil one will fight against the whole universe to save the only one he cherishes."

Adonis smiled at his cup of tea faintly and said, "My master is too kind. I\'m afraid he will lose his sanity one day for his stubbornness and kindness."

"Kick my balls if that happens-_-."

"Pftt…Bwahahahahaha!!!!!!" Adonis burst out of laughter because of Viktor\'s expressionless answer. He was laughing so much that his tears came out and his stomach started to hurt.

So Viktor asked, "Was that really funny-_-?"

"Master…. Hahah..hah…what …hahahhaha…"

"Come on, man-_-."

Viktor then sighed and mumbled, \'Kind? I\'m not a kind person, Adonis. You\'re seeing it all wrong.\'
