The Return Of The Villainous Saint
Chapter 2. The Prisoner
In the dimly lit underground prison under the Bell's Mansion.
Footsteps echoed in the dim corridor and stopped in front of one of the prison cells.
Inside the prison cell was a man with long lustrous silver hair, restricted with magical iron chains.
His name was Lucian, a pitiful common born who ended up in such a state because of his foolish decisions and trusting the wrong person.
Lucian looked up coldly at the person who stood in front of his prison cell.
That man was the Count who owned the mansion where the underground prison was located.
That man was Liam Bell, the person he once trusted wholeheartedly...
And the person he once loved dearly.
There was an eerie silence.
The lights from the lamp flickered, and all Liam could see was Lucian's emotionless face.
Those beautiful eyes that used to look at him with love, trust, and happiness now gazed at him with freezing coldness and indifference.
Liam felt a sudden stabbing pain in his heart.
He looked away, erasing all unnecessary thoughts in his head.
Liam Bell
I heard you didn't eat again.
Liam Bell
You know it's not good for your body.
Liam Bell
Tell me what you want to eat. I'll ask the chef to make it for you.
Liam glanced at Lucian again, wandering his gaze to the interior of the prison.
Liam Bell
It's getting colder here. Just wait for a while, I'll move you to a room in the mansion.
Liam Bell
Just... you just have to behave.
Liam Bell
That's all I ask for.
Liam gritted his teeth, trying to suppress his irritation.
Liam Bell
I told you to be obedient.
Liam Bell
This place is not good for your health.
Liam Bell
Listen to me, I care about you.
Lucian
I don't need your care.
Lucian stared at him and scoffed.
Lucian
But of course, you should care.
Lucian
Otherwise, if I get sick, if I starve, if I die...
Lucian
Your precious childhood sweetheart will suffer.
Lucian
Hey, I heard she will be canonized soon?
Lucian
What do you think the people will do if they learn
Lucian
That the Saintess they worship right now
Lucian
I bet her head will roll down the very steps of the Temple she's walking right now.
Lucian
Are you angry? Why? Guilty?
Lucian
What you all did was a grave sin punishable by death.
Lucian
She deserves to die. How I wish she will be struck by lightning and die right now!
Liam Bell
I TOLD YOU TO SHUT UP!!! 😠
Liam looked at Lucian angrily.
Where did his previous sweet and docile lover go? The one in front of him was a devil.
The devil he created with his own hands...
Liam controlled his emotions.
Liam Bell
I'm sorry for shouting...
Liam Bell
We'll talk again after I come back.
Liam Bell
I hope you'll think it through and stop being a stubborn fool.
Liam walked away, stopped and looked back.
Lucian remained in his position, but his head was hanging down.
He did not even try to stop him or even look at him...
