73 Work for me! (1/2)

Teetering with a slight sway, and hovering above a cold stone floor, a single figure swayed beneath a ray of white light. This light lit only his form, one slouched and exhausted.

Each arm, suspended and bound to a limitless chain of metal. Each limb also punctured on a shimmering surface behind him. Such a wall was also tied to a chain, swinging with him.

He was covered and encompassed in chain.

He seemed to be beaten down. Though, an aura of absolute danger still shrouded this chained area. There was no single living creature near his proximity, only that lifeless chain...

It was as if he was a fallen War God; set out and thrown into an area beyond anything living. To die by the hands of time itself.

*RATTLE*

A tremor rocked the air around such a person, where a sudden dense collection of metallic boom ricocheted outwards. Tearing cracks seemed to form beneath him. Widening as an impenetrable collection of shockwaves thundered.

”Locked..?”

A glaring golden colour that seemed to replace all light blazed out of the figure as two eyes opened ever so slightly.

*RATTLE*

A deafening noise responded as those metallic booms formed numerous currents of fierce winds.

”Ah... Am I missing anything..?”

His eyes opened even further as that terrifying glare magnified.

*RATTLE RATTLE*

”Wait... How am I still wearing the jacket..? I thought it broke. Huh...”

His voice rumbled as his aura soon began to materialise into a strange golden haze. This fogged aura seemed to be angered, annoyed...

*RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE*

”Good, I didn't lose it... Though by how the black figure described it, I probably wouldn't be able to anyway....”

A mysterious light shined in his frightening eyes as he gazed at a certain pocket on his body. Though, he didn't ponder for too long as those eyes were redirected forward.

”Hm, I feel like a monster in all these chains...”

A sensation that seemed to be edging toward a boundary shined out of the figures eyes as they fully opened. A collection of pops ensued, and in a gloomy expression, the figure's body trembled before tugging at one of the massive chains binding it!

*THUD...*

*RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE RATTLE Rattle rattle...*

A deafening boom that formed a fearsome force escaped out of him! This force was akin to a full out attack of a peak Martial Condensation, who in this world were overlords!

Anyone would die in front of such a power, yet the chains binding him only trembled for a while until fading back into the stillness from before!

This would be shocking to anyone and everyone with a little bit of knowledge. No normal metal would be able to withstand an attack capable of forming craters miles wide, and even then, who can with but a tug produce such power?

The only people that would come to mind would be the Overseers! Yet, this man was no such person...

*Sizzle*

Nevertheless, as the figure relaxed after tugging, a searing sound emerged from his chest...

It only lasted for a second, but a visible spasm shook his body in that time.

”This is bad...”

A tired and annoyed voice escaped from the figure as his glowing eyes stared into space for a while.

”...”

*Sigh*

A sigh escaped out of him as his eyes dimmed till they no longer illuminated the area. His seething aura also dissipated, causing the chilling atmosphere to lighten a tad.

”I can't use my comprehensions too much right now, so ancient energy is a no go...”

This figure was Su Min!

”But it is clear that whoever did this is far more powerful than me... But I'm not dead, and they could have killed me in the time it took to lock me up like an animal.”

His dim eyes narrowed as he tugged the chains once again. Though with less force than last time.
