87 Nightmare (1/2)

The doctors and the guards did nothing but stare at Owain who was lying on the floor on his stomach. His arms and legs were broken with blood leaking from everywhere. The floor was full of spider-like cracks and broken tiles along with teeth of Owain.

Floyd did nothing but coldly looked at the body of Owain. He has read the internal records from academy's server and knew Owain was responsible for removing Zed from the academy.

Floyd wanted nothing more than killing Owain for involving him in this mess but for now, he patiently waited for him to awaken.

Ten minutes later, Owain regained consciousness with a deep grunt.

”Urgh!” Owain felt severe pain throughout his body. His jaw especially hurt the most since his face was banged directly on the floor.

With many efforts, he opened his eyes but all he could see was darkness mixed with red. It took him minutes to realize his vision was impaired by the blood and sweat.

He released a loud scream when he felt he couldn't move his arms at all.

”Help me!” Owain loudly begged. He was wriggling on the floor trying to rise up but with no success at all.

Neither the guards nor the doctors moved to help. The only thing they did was to wonder why he was punished in such a horrifying way.

”Anyone...please!” Owain rose his head from the floor with grave efforts. He couldn't see clearly but he could make out there were people in front of him.

”Shut up,” Floyd's cold voice ringed inside the chamber,”Have some decency to accept your punishment without complaining like a pig.”

Punishment?! For what crime?!

”I have done nothing to deserve this!” Owain muttered while still wriggling on the floor.

”Still got the nerves to lie?” Floyd took a water bottle from a small freezer in the chamber. He then crouched in front of Owain to pour the cold water on his face.

”Arghhhhh!” Owain screamed as the cold water burned on his wounds. The bright side was that the water cleared his eyes but the pain was terrible nevertheless.

”You abused your authority and yet you say you did nothing?” Floyd asked in a cold voice.

”What abuse?!” Owain angrily barked. He has joined the academy just a week ago so what terrible crime could he have committed in such a short span?

Owain swore he will get even with Floyd after he recovered. He was not the type to take the thrashing like a dead pig.

”You want to take revenge?” Floyd asked with a twisted smile on his face.

”N-no!” Owain didn't even get time to say more as his face once again crashed on the floor. What little teeth he has left also broke this time.

”You removed the students to accommodate transfer students and yet you think I am in wrong?” Floyd asked before stomping his foot on Owain's arms.

”ARGH!” Owain couldn't understand what was wrong in his actions. Sure he got favors from the government officials but it was nothing new. Such activities were rather too common in most institutes.

After all, in any organization, it was necessary for the office bearers to have sufficient endeavors for contributing their best.
