Soon after Aisen (Knight A) and Carlsen (Knight C) reached the center hall, another announcement was made.
“To all knights, please pay attention. Knights A and C will be taking a break from patrolling for some time. The Master is taking them to some training courses. Please be aware that they will return to patrolling as soon as the training finishes. Thank you for your attention.”
Rogue reaches into his sweatshirt and pulls out a small knife. He uses the knife to slit his hand open.
Adara walked over to the girl, checking what was wrong with her. She was clearly a mortal… was she the one that… No. The other mortal had been dealt with.
Knight G was sitting on a tower near Rogue. Seeing Rogue he silently followed him.
Tolkalee was fighting to stay conscious. He'd never actually fought another time manipulator, and this one seemed to be a master of it. Just great, I hate literally everything about being here right now, he thought to himself. His necklace glowed again. Yeah I definitely need to get out of here. Using what ever strength he could muster he fought against the hold on him. His necklace assisting him, in whatever way it could. The moment he broke free this time he slowed time himself. He dragged himself up, moving on will power alone, and took off running down the hall trying to get as far away as he could.
Hinata was having a fever. She was burning hotter than most suns.
Knights B and L walked pass Hinata and Adara, talking about Knights A and C. “What did the brothers get into this time?” Knight B asked. “Like hell would I know. The Master won’t be so merciful this time, I’m sure of it.” Knight L answered and laughed. “Maybe they would die this time, who knows?!” Knight B jokingly said to Knight L who laughed at that.
Adara's eyes widened. She walked over to them. "W-who are you talking about?" She asked.
Hinata sturred at the sound of voices. Her heat was radiating into the air now.
Knight F caught up to Tolkalee without a problem. “Why are you in such a hurry? You don’t want to know a trick or two from me?” The Knight insisted.
Hinata's heat reached the group of people.
Knight B and L looked at Adara. “Didn’t you hear the announcement? Aisen and Carlsen got into trouble again. Last time they nearly got killed so who knows, maybe they’ll end up being corpses this time” Knight L giggled to Knight B and Adara.
"Oh. I-is anyone allowed to watch? I know I do. Want to watch them get punished, I mean," Adara said with a wicked smile.
Hinata's hair caught on fire, burning her scalp.
Knight L looked rather surprise. “You sure? Last time they got punished, all the knights, even a sociopath like Rainer can’t stand it” Knight L explained. “Yeah, and Rainer’s ability is the goriest of the knights. He can’t even watch it, it was that horrible!” Knight B added. “The Master has never had mercy on anyone of us” Knight L explained.
Adara shrugged. "I melt eyeballs for fun. How bad can it be?" She sounded calm, and a bit maniacal, but inside she was worried.
Tolkalee shook his head. Both refusing the offer and clearing the black spots from his vision. Instead of just slowing time he stopped it, stretching his power to the max. Then he dived around a corner falling into a large room barely seeing the people standing in there before falling onto his side and passing out. Time returning to normal. His necklace blinking softly telling him to get up he wasn't safe yet.
Knight B was about to be late for his patrol. “You explain Joseph, I gotta go!” Knight B said before disappearing into ancient writings. Knight L sighed. “Have you ever seen how Carlsen fight? He usually dissect his foes after each battle correct? Yeah…increase that by about…ten times? The Master punishes the Knights differently. Carlsen’s is whole body dissection while Aisen’s…” Knight L slightly coughed. “Aisen’s is probably the worst out of all of us. He’s forced to go through a whole body dissection like his brother, but his body is also injected with Anthony’s chemicals and drugs. So, he’s slowly turning into a fully-fledged maniac” Knight L explained.
Adara winced inwardly, but put on a smile. "That sounds like fun. Do they scream?"
Knight F decided not to follow Tolkalee. He then walked around each region, looking for something to do.
“How could they scream? Their bodies are chopped into also 100 different pieces. Heck, their arms won’t even be intact at that point” Knight L explained.
Adara acted disappointed. "Still. Can you show me where it is? I want to watch."
Knight L sighed. “I won’t follow you in there but…follow me”
Adara smirked, but inside she was worried. Why were they getting punished? Because of her? No, probably not, it was most likely just Carlson doing something stupid.
Knight L took her to the entry of the Training Room. “Go ahead, I’ll go on patrol now” Knight L said, not knowing Adara was not a spirit.
