Chapter 637 Lron Cage

The torture continued without end

Day after day, night after night

Sunny screamed when he had the voice, and reo… he still had pride, and endured the tor hi

But there was no point Pride had no place here… only pain

Anyone should have died froony he was subjected to and the terrible wounds dealt to his body But Sunny didn't die… was unable to die… and so, there was no end to his anguish

Every one, as if he was born anew Every , the torturer returned, and the cycle continued

The torturer, hih he was tor his prisoner just for the sake of toreon never seeony of his victi his duties

Why was this happening?

How long had it been happening?

When would this neverending nighthtmare…'

Sunny didn't know… he barely knew himself anymore All he kneas fear, darkness, and pain

'Lord, save me…'

On one of these days, he opened his eyes to see the torturer entering the cell His personal executioner was tall and noble in bearing, with skin as white as ivory, lustrous golden hair, and amber eyes that were full of calmness, conviction, and melancholy

Just like always, the torturer started preparing his tools, and just like always, Sunny strained histo break free of his shackles

…But this ti unexpected happened Sunny froze and stared at the radiant

'Can this be?'

Just like in the harrowing nighto, there was a beautiful sphere of light burning within the torturer's chest Its splendor washed over Sunny,the terrible pain recede for a moment

A weak, pale smile found its way onto his face

Sunny bathed in the light, and whispered:

"Sun…"

Oh, how he had longed to see the sun again

The torture froze, then slowly turned to him His amber eyes shone with sudden eain?"

He took a tentative step forward and studied Sunny's face, then gently caressed it

"Brother, ood it is to hear your voice once more"

Sunny shi+vered

"Brother? Are we… brothers?"

He eak, and confused Thoughts danced chaotically in his broken ile like snowflakes in the su, even if he wanted to But… he didn't want to Not for a long time

The torturer sotten evento remember Brother… did he have a brother? Yes, he used to, once His brother was noble, valiant, and wise His brother was blessed by the Lord of Light He was entrusted with a sacred duty…

And so was Sunny hi shattered fraghtmares Who could tell?

He weakly shook his head

"If we are brothers… then why? Why are… you torturing me?"

The torturer rehed sadly

"Ah, that old question You haven't asked it in decades"

He leaned forward and looked at Sunny with sorrow

"Don't you remember? You were the one who asked me to do this, after all"

Sunny's pupils widened

'No… no…'

"I… asked you?"

The torturer nodded

"As penitence, for the terrible sin you coht Was it… a century ago? Yes, al blade, thrusting it into the flaolden brazier

"It has been al our duty alone was not easy, my brother It wasn't easy at all But I never broke my word to you"

Sunny stared as the blade was slowly starting to glow inside the fla that it would be soon thrust into his flesh instead, he shuddered

"If I… asked you… then stop I don't… don't want it anymore"

The torturer looked down, then smiled darkly

"Stop? But we can't stop Not until you answered the question"

Sunny's eyes were glued to the blade He whispered:

"Question? What question?"
