"Rise and shine, friends."

The two men looked towards the sound, and all of a sudden, the memories of their last conscious moments flooded back into their brains.

"LUCIUS!!"

Hearing this, Lucius shook his head with a look of obvious displeasure on his face. "There's no need to scream; we have soundproof magic. No matter what you say, no matter how loud you call, nobody will hear you."

Hearing Lucius's eerie words, the hearts of the two men sank. Chris, either unaware or in simple denial, roared back at Lucius.

"Lucius, you've lost your mind! The Montford Family will never let you off! Even if you kill us, they will drag you out and crush you to pieces. Everyone you loved and cared about will be put to death along with us."

Lucius frowned. Although he was never planning on killing them, the pair of twins must have thought this was the case and spoke in anger. Although Lucius still wasn't planning on killing them, their words were still displeasing.

Lucius looked at them and shook his head. "It's no use talking to you like this."

"Camilla."

As Lucius spoke, she walked forward, holding a knife so sharp it seemed to glow in the darkness.

"Help our guests get familiar with their new situation."

Hearing this, she looked at the two young nobles, and a vicious glint emerged in her eyes. "With pleasure."

Seeing Camilla walk towards them, their hearts began to panic. "L-Lucius, what are you doing?"

Lucius didn't seem to hear them and spoke eerily. "You see, I have this friend. Her talent in magic and manipulation can be said to be awful, but as compensation from the goddess above, her talent in alchemy and potions is superb, greater than that of many master mages in the magic tower. As a result, I have a lot of high-grade healing potions on hand."

Lucius's hands moved, placing a bunch of vials containing a beautiful glowing red liquid, almost as if to prove his point. But as he did so, a cruel and bloody smile appeared on his face.

"This means no matter what happens to you right now, if I apply the potion soon enough, you'll be as good as new. If you're still not getting it, it means no matter what happens to you now, as long as I apply the potion, it won't matter. Even if you go to the Montford family, you'll have no evidence, and with the protection of my teacher and Sanctuary Academy, you'll never be able to touch me."

The two brothers thought about it for a brief second and soon realized that what Lucius was saying was true. From then on, a new emotion grew rapidly in their hearts. It wasn't anger, or embarrassment. It wasn't hatred or inferiority.

It was something that the children of the Montford family, one of the five great heroic families on the continent, thought they would never experience in their lives after the slaying of the demon king. That terrifying emotion was fear!

Seeing the horrified looks on the faces of the two brothers, Lucius still kept the eerie smile on his face, but deep down in his heart, he felt satisfied.

Lucius normally didn't like to talk too much, but he had read somewhere that much of the means behind torture were just as much psychological as they were physical. To truly break someone, you had to try on mental efforts, and as a result, Lucius showed the two brothers early on just how helpless their situation was.

But just putting fear into their hearts wasn't enough.

It wasn't enough to just draw a knife; you actually had to show you could draw blood.

This was the part where Lucius had to take a step back.

After all, despite all the bravado Lucius showed, he knew his own limitations. Before he took over the body of Lucius in this world, he was a complete and utter civilian.

He may have had the heart to fight and even kill, but something as immoral and depraved as torture was far from the things Lucius was capable of doing with his own hands at this moment in time.

Maybe in a few years, when he had assimilated into the world and truly merged with his identity. But thinking about committing such a thing made Lucius feel a little queasy.

Lucius was the kind of person who could only watch gore videos that would randomly scroll onto his feed in his past life, so bloody torture was absolutely above his feeble pay grade.

Fortunately, for times when the boss was incapable, it was time for the assistant to step up to the table. Camilla had been trained as the assistant and complete right hand of the leader of the revolutionary army from a young age.

She was trained in the art of assassination and espionage, so of course, things like torture would also have to be included.

Because of that, when Camilla's name was called, she didn't hesitate to act.

Besides, the people she was torturing weren't some innocent victims either.
