143 Leaving The Warehouse

"N-none of them… can…?"

It didn't take a genius to understand what those words meant.

Even for Evals, who was currently wallowing in confusion and pain, the words made it painfully clear what the masked man did.

"Y-you killed them…!!" His eyes nearly popped out of their suckers as his smushed face trembled in terror.

He feared he would be next.

"What? No! I just prevented all the sound we made from escaping. They can't hear anything… literally."

The way the masked man spoke about it felt like he was joking.

Evals didn't know what to believe anymore.

"You deserve death, but that would be a waste. You'll be way more useful alive." The masked man continued as he advanced further.

Evals Redart didn't let the distance fool him, though. He knew the man could just appear in front of him anytime he wished.

In essence, the slave trader was trapped.
