110 Hellblazer Family (III)

“Keep screaming, and the next one will land in your jaw.” Zarak’s voice was eerie cold as he generated a second orb of revolving water.

Marik trembled with fear and knew that Zarak was not lying. He clenched his teeth with all his strength and stopped screaming, but the look on his face made it clear just how much agony he was in.

Zarak did not care about Marik and turned toward Frederick with coldness. The blue light in his eyes grew even stronger as he proceeded to speak with a tone of voice that carried an extremely powerful intent.

“The transfer order was dated 16 days ago. When did you really make it?”

Frederick’s eyes lost focus as he heard Zarak’s voice and began to speak calmly.

“I generated that transfer order two days ago under the order of Marik Hellblazer.” It was only after answering that question that Frederick’s eyes returned to normal. Absolute terror appeared in them as he knew he had admitted his crime.

Marik showed even greater terror. Still, he did not dare to interrupt Zarak’s interrogation, no matter how much it compromised him.

“Tell me your relationship with the Hellblazer Family.”

Frederick could not resist the power in Zarak’s voice, and his eyes again lost focus and answered the question with complete honesty.

.....

“I have been under the service of the Hellblazer Family for almost seven months. They enticed me with immense wealth and gave me intel that could help my career. Up to this point, I have only provided logistics information regarding the Imperial Lightning Fort’s resources and our forces. The situation with cadet Levi is the first time Marik asked me to interfere directly with any Collapsing Lightning Military Academy member.”

Frederick’s eyes regained focus, and the terror in them only grew stronger. Everybody already knew he had been a double agent of the Hellblazer Family for over half a year.

The expression of Marik and the other two middle-aged men from the Hellblazer Family was not any better. Not only was it clear they could not take Levi with them, but they had just lost an agent inside the Imperial Lightning Fort.

“Lord Zarak, have mercy! My actions never harmed anybody; even now, cadet Levi is fine. Please, I beg you!” Frederick begged for his life with tears in his eyes. He was so terrified that it seemed he would sully himself at any moment.

Zarak showed no emotion other than coldness as he continued with the interrogation.

“Do you have any information about any other spy, or is there any accomplice to your deeds?”

“No. I have always worked alone. The risk of someone revealing my identity as a spy from the Hellblazer Family was too high.”

Zarak nodded, and the coldness in his eyes diminished. He even showed a small smile.

Frederick found that smile extremely relaxing and the terror overflowing his heart began to diminish.

“You beg me for your life, declaring that you have never harmed anyone, but you are smart enough to understand what would happen to the cadet once he left.” Zarak’s voice was calm, but a force that made the entire room tremble manifested.

The newfound calm in Frederick’s heart shattered the next second, and his eyes widened as he felt the force grabbing his body begin to exert a monstrous strength.

“Lord Zarak, I beg you!” Frederick screamed as his bones shattered before his body exploded like a balloon full of blood.

That scene shocked the members of the Hellblazer Family, and even Levi, who had no love for the man, was surprised by that savagery.

“The reason soldiers can have such an immense trust in the military is that they know that any betrayal to your brothers and sisters would be punished with absolute brutality. If I allowed people like him to prosper, cadets would never call the Imperial Lightning Fort their home.”

Zarak spoke those words to Levi, making the cadet understand the true might of the Imperial Military Force. Despite the Hellblazer Family going through so much trouble, they still failed miserably.

“I understand,” Levi said nothing else, but the sharp light in his eyes made it clear he had engraved Zarak’s words in his mind.

Zarak nodded at the cadet before turning toward the Hellblazer Family, and the smile on his face grew wider.

“Since you dare to put a spy in the Imperial Lightning Fort, I think you should receive the same treatment as him.”

Marik and the other two middle-aged men grew pale when they heard that, and absolute terror invaded them when they saw the bloody pulp that was once Frederick.

“You... you can not kill us. We are under the protection of the Hellblazer Duke!” Marik shouted, trying to regain some courage by remembering his background.

Zarak stopped smiling as he heard that and began to look around the room before focusing on Marik again.

“I know that I am blind, but my perception is one of the things I am most proud of. To think that the mighty Hellblazer Duke could enter my residence without me knowing it. I am amazed at Your Grace’s abilities.”

Marik was confused, and the terror did not allow his mind to work well, so he just answered by instinct.

“He is not with us.”

Zarak showed a cold and cruel smile as he heard as he turned toward Marik.

“If he is not here, then how will he protect you from me?”

Zarak was mocking Marik for thinking he could use the name of a man hundreds of millions of kilometers away. The blue light in his eyes burst with power, and it seemed he was ready to kill all the Hellblazer Family members.

At that moment, the person at the back of the group, whose face was covered by a hood and who did not say a word this entire time, walked forward.

That young man took his hood, revealing a handsome face with jet-black hair and eyes that seemed to glow with embers of flames. The light in his eyes was not the result of the Ego Wave but the power of his bloodline.

Levi could not hide his shock when he saw that young man. He knew just how high that person’s position was in the Hellblazer Family and could not comprehend why someone like him would be in a place like this, trying to force him back to the Hellblazer Sector.

The young man did not even bother to glance at Levi and only focused on Zarak. He showed a calm smile despite the immense danger in which he found himself.

“Lord Zarak, allow me to introduce myself. I am Magnus Hellblazer, son of Gabriel Hellblazer and grandson of Azazel Hellblazer, Duke of the Hellblazer Sector.”

Zarak was a little surprised to see that the young man could keep such composure in his presence. He did not retract his power but allowed this one to continue speaking.

“Lord Zarak, you already killed our man on the inside and punished one of my subordinates for his recklessness. If you allow us to leave now, I am sure my grandfather will send a token of his appreciation. Considering the current state of the empire and the events that will happen soon, I am sure Lord Zarak knows that generating animosity with the Hellblazer Sector would only make things harder.”

Magnus spoke with a calm voice, his eyes going from the bloody pulp that was once Frederick to Marik’s bleeding shoulder. He was very eloquent, stating the benefits of ending this peacefully.

Zarak’s smile became more natural after hearing Magus’s words.

“The one that pulls the strings finally speaks. You are right that this is certainly not the time to sow bad will.”

Marik and the other two middle-aged men from the Hellblazer Family were about to relax, thinking that Magnus had handled things. However, the next second, they saw how the coldness returned to Zarak’s face, and his eyes burst with even stronger blue light.

“But so what. What will you do if I want to ignore the bigger picture and kill you?”

Despite the imminent threat of death and the feeling of a force ready to crush him to a pulp, Magnus’ smile did not vanish, nor did the calm in his heart. 𝐟𝐫𝗲𝙚w𝚎𝐛𝙣𝐨𝙫𝘦𝗹.c૦m

“There is nothing I can do to stop you, but my death will trigger a series of catastrophic events that would be problematic even for you, Lord Zarak. That is not a threat but a plain fact.” Magnus’s voice showed no vacillation, and he had absolute confidence in his words.

Zarak’s eyes did not leave the young man for a long time before the power of his mind vanished from the room. The coldness in his face disappeared, and he began to laugh.

“Hahaha, not bad. It seems that the Hellblazer Family found itself a good heir. However, I will tell you something, if you go after him, the only destiny that awaits you is a horrible death.”
