32 Biting More than you can Chew!

Loud belt smacks echoed in the chamber as Patrick slapped Michael in the face. And with the pain inducement feature, every smack was intensified a hundred times over, making a mere belt slap feel like a hundred-ton whiplash. On the last slap, Michael cried in pain as he passed out unconscious.

The chamber was completely silent as everyone watched the scene of Patrick not only beating Michael, who was a C-rank, but even humiliating him by trashing him around like a plaything. To make matters worse, he then proceeded to publicly slap Michael in the face with a belt, causing him to cry in pain like a child and ultimately pass out.

Shock and disbelief are some words one can use to describe the reactions of every spectator. Except for Athena, whose face carried only pride and confidence in her man.
