"And that ce is called hell."


    As those words fell, a cold silence descended from the barrier. M felt a slight fear strike her heart as she knew that the boy in front of her was serious about his words.


    But she knew better than to just let a 10-year-old intimidate her.


    However, before she could rebut the boy in front of her, she felt multiple presences in the room outside the barrier, and as she turned around, she felt her heart stop.


    Rex Verhein, Cloward Fiel, and many other powerhouses were currently standing outside the barrier, and they all seemed furious at this point. M was inplete despair, having already forfeited her life.


    However, to everyone''s surprise, right before Rex could step inside and end M''s life, a voice stopped everyone.


    "No, father, let me handle this, please," William said in a deep voice that reverberated throughout the broken room.


    It was the kind of voice that contained finality and left no room to argue.


    Rex wanted to argue, but something told him that William would never forgive him if he took this opportunity from him.


    So he decided to trust his son, and besides, if anything dangerous happens, he can save his son instantly, though for some reason he didn''t think William was in danger.


    And since the father of the boy didn''t intervene out of mutual respect for Rex, the other powerhouses also decided to just observe.


    However, this mutual respect didn''t stop a few guests from secretly recording the event that was about to go down.


    Ever since Morgov connected to Astressa over the past thousand years, technology has gone up by leaps and bounds.


    The technology isn''t advanced enough to be called sci-fi; however, it''s simr to the level of technology Williams''s Old World Blue had.


    Due to this, mobile phones weremonce.


    Due to respect for their roots, the architecture, aristocracy, and culture of Astressa represented medieval society.


    At first, a bunch of people were against the sudden influx of high-tech gadgets and modern-day concepts that the people of Morgov possessed, but the vast majority understood the potential the people of Morgov had for the development of their.


    And now, after a thousand years, we are at a ce where the cultures of both worlds are widely respected and epted, which is why most people nowadays prefer to own a cell phone formunication and entertainment purposes.


    While a few guests were trying to sneakily record the fight that was about to ensue, they were a bit afraid that they might get caught and punished.


    Thankfully for them, their worries were short-lived.


    "Livestream what''s about to happen; it''s time we giveughing coffins a taste of their own medicine," William announced, his tone still containing authority, which didn''t belong in the voice of a 10-year-old.


    Hearing the boy, the guests, who were trying to sneakily record at first, openly took out their devices as they started a live stream.


    Among these guests were a bunch of popr figures who naturally had a lot of followers, so once they started a live stream within minutes, the live stream had thousands of viewers.


    The chat was pretty curious about what was going on; however, they were also excited to see the prodigy William Verhein, who seemed to be engaged in some sort of fight against a woman in peculiar clothing.


    However, this curiosity was short-lived, as just after a moment, a bone-chilling scream caught everyone''s attention.


    "Ahahahahahahhaahahha!!!!!!!!!!" M screamed in agony as she felt her left arm burning.


    Everyone in the hall, including the viewers watching the live stream, was too stunned to speak as they were too confused about what was going on. However, this was just the beginning of everything William had in store for tonight.


    The Laughing Coffin is a notorious group of misfits infamous for the sadistic tactics of their members.


    They were known for killing out talents and sabotaging the development of society.


    However, there was another thing that they were known for, and that was the asional live stream they conducted through anonymous ounts.


    The contents of these live streams were revolting, as they featured a member of their group brutally torturing, both mentally and physically, some of the talented kids they chose to kidnap instead of simply killing.


    Over 100 years ago, there was a simr live stream of them torturing the heir or a marquess, which made them infamous throughout both worlds.


    And now, to answer their return, William nned to give them a taste of their own medicine.


    After all, since William was going to destroy the group, he first needed to destroy the stigma of respect they have amongst the underworld as well as the fear their name invokes everywhere else.


    Before he physically destroyed the group, he wanted to turn them into a joke.


    Also, it''s a known fact that a member of theughing coffin will just die if you try to interrogate them, so instead of that, it''s better for him to just humiliate them for now.


    After a few seconds of intense pain, M quickly cut her own arm without hesitation to free herself of the pain.


    However, before she could do anything else, William was right in front of her, whispering.


    "Aww, that''s no fun; you need to struggle more." He said as an almost satanic smile crept its way on his face.


    M was at the peak of her anger when she saw the boy who was responsible for her losing her precious arm smile at her, so with no hesitation, she activated her berserker ability as well as her healing ability to regrow her arm.


    With zero hesitation, she lunged at the boy with her trusty dagger in hand.


    However, to herplete surprise, the boy remained unfazed as he observed the weapon in her hand moving towards him before he caught the dagger between his fingers, looking unaffected by the deadly toxin on the surface of the de.


    And before she could even react,


    ~Crack~


    The dagger that had apanied M throughout her childhood broke in front of her, almost like it was made of ss.


    And before she could even mourn the loss of the only belonging that apanied her throughout her childhood or attack the boy, he uttered something.


    "Kneel"


    And as if given an absolute order, she found herself kneeling on the ground, almost praying to the boy responsible for her current state.


    "Good, now it''s time for you to pay for your sins," William said in a soul-chilling tone that made M considermitting suicide to escape whatever the boy had nned.
