  ***********************************

  The mog sneer in Alex's voice cut through the air like a bde, sileng the trapped nobles and royals. Their gilded arrogauro brittle shock as his words struck them, leaving them stunned into an uneasy, suffog silence.

  Seds passed before one noble's posure snapped like a frail twig. His face twisted in rage, and he bared his teeth, spitting venom.

  "Y-You bastard! I'll kill you!!"

  His furious shout broke the spell, unleashing a cacophony of ed voices.

  "How dare you, scum!"

  "Filthy peasant trash! You dare y hands on us?!"

  "Once I'm free, I'll make you suffer in ways unimaginable!"

  "Garbage like you should know its p the dirt."

  The threats and curses rained down like arrows, but Alex's rea was far from fear. His lips curled into a grin that dripped with malice, and a dark chuckle escaped him.

  "Hahaha... Is that the best you do?" His ughter was sharp, cutting deeper than any bde. "You're nothing but barking dogs in gilded s."

  One of them, emboldened by anger, stepped closer to the bars. "You dare mock us—"

  Bang!

  A fsh of light. The deafening crack of a magic bullet. The noble's words died in his throat as the projectile tore through his chest, leaving a gaping, bloody hole. He crumpled to the floor in a lifeless heap, blood poolih him.

  The cage fell into a shocked, trembling silence. Fear took root in their hearts as they stared at Alex, whose smile only grew wider, and colder.

  "What?" He mocked, pointing a fi another noble. "One isn't enough? Shall we try again?"

  The man shook his head frantically, stammering, "N-No! Please, don't—"

  Bang!

  Anic bullet ripped through flesh and bone, sileng the noble's pleas forever. Blood sprayed like a macabre fountain, painting the bars and floor crimson. The rest of the captives recoiled, trembling and pale, their bravado shattered.

  "Feeling powerless now?" Alex's voice dropped, his words ced with venom. "Isn't it funny how the tables turn? All your lives, you've treated oners like is to crush underfoot. You've made them suffer, cry, and bleed. But now? Now it's your turn to squirm."

  He stepped closer, his killing i suffog. The air grew heavy, as though death itself had ehe room.

  "You're not special," He spat, his voice icy. "You're just weak. athetis hiding behind titles and bloodlines. And like the vermin you are, I'll exterminate you."

  A trembling voice dared to speak. "H-How dare you pare us to oners!"

  Alex raised an eyebrow, curiosity mingling with pt. "Oh? Enlighten me. How is your life any more valuable than theirs?"

  The noble's pride fred, even in the face of death. "We are of royal blood! Desdants of this kingdom's founder! We are stronger, smarter, and superior in every way! Those filthy scums exist to serve us. They're nothing, nothing! Even if we kill dozens, it doesn't matter!"

  Silence fell, heavy and oppressive, as Alex's ughter rang out. It was wild, unhinged, filled with a dark joy.

  "Hahahaha! You're exactly as I expected—rotten to the core. You nobles never ge, do you? Good. That makes this easier."

  His eyes gleamed with bloodlust as he surveyed the caged prisoners. "You're the real disease of this kingdom. Leeg off the weak, stifling progress, ging to your precious traditions. But don't worry. I'll be your cure."

  He gestured grandly, his tone mog. "Do you know what happeo the House of Hapshass? Or the House of Zephyra? Rael? Aster? Oh, that's right. You covered it up."

  His smile twisted into something monstrous. "I killed them. Every st one. I burheir manors to the ground with them inside. And soon, your families will join them in the ashes."

  The nobles' eyes widened in horror as he revealed his crimes with relish. He leaned closer to the bars, his voice a venomous whisper.

  "This kingdom will crumble from the inside. I'll let your precious noble houses tear each other apart for scraps of power. And when the dust settles, I'll step in. As Wizard King, I'll strip away your titles, your privileges, your lives. Even the Houses of Silva and Vermillion won't escape my grasp."

  He straightened, his expression a mask of cold determination. "In the end, this kingdom will be free of your filth. The oners you've oppressed will rise, and the nobles—you parasites—will rot."

  Turning on his heel, Alex strode toward the door. His ughter, low and chilling, echoed behind him.

  "Enjoy your remaining days in this hell. It's more mercy than you deserve."

  The air in the room grew colder as if Alex's malice had seeped into the walls themselves. The ared in mute horror as he paused at the doorway, then turned back with a calcuted slowhat made their skin crawl.

  "Oh, don't look so defeated already," He purred, his voice smooth but dripping with venom. "The fun is just beginning."

  He raised his hand, summoning a crag orb of dark energy that pulsed with an ominous hum. The faint, otherworldly whispers emanating from it seemed to cw at the edges of their sanity.

  "You see, killing you ht would be too merciful," Alex tinued, his grin widening. "No, I want you to uand the depths of your insignifice. I want you to feel every ounce of despair you've inflicted on others."

  With a flick of his wrist, the orb exploded into tless tendrils of energy that shrough the cages, tg onto the heir screams echoed as the dark magic seeped into their bodies, twisting and t them with agony that defied description.

  "Ah, musiy ears," Alex said with mock delight, tilting his head as if sav a fine symphony. "Do you feel it? That's the weight of every sin you've itted, amplified, and turned against you."

  One of the nobles, writhing in pain, mao gasp out a plea. "P-Please... stop..."

  Alex's expression darkened, his smile vanishing. He strode forward, his boots spshing through the growing pools of blood. "Stop?" he repeated, his voice low and dangerous. "Did you stop when a mged for her child's life? Did you stop wheire vilges cried out for mercy as you burhem to the ground?"

  He k beside the trembling man, his gaze pierg. "No. You didn't stop. So why should I?"

  Standing again, Alex turo address the group as a whole. "This is justice," he decred, his voice rising with a fervent iy. "Not the hollow justice you pretend to uphold with your ws and titles, but true justice. The kind that bahe scales."

  He let the silence hang for a moment, his eyes sweeping over the broken figures before him. Then, with a sharp motion, he dissipated the remaining tendrils of energy, leaving the nobles colpsed and gasping.
