There was a rumor many years ago when Lenny was a student in the Monastery of pain and Pleasure.
It was amongst the students.
This rumor had to do with torture, and many claimed that the many years of the Monastery of pain and pleasure had something to do with it.
The Monastery, Lenny later found was thousands of years old.
It was older than any civilization in history, and some more.
Just as in college, there is always a final project before graduation.
Many of those projects had to do with brand new ideas on how to feel either pain or pleasure.
With this, it was no surprise when the rumor was confirmed true that a good 95% of the Torture techniques in the world were invented by students from this monastery.
The other five percent being random innovative ideas.
After all, one must be dedicated to the horrors a person could feel for many such techniques to be created.
As one would expect, the Monastery had such bright young, creative minds.
Some very memorable ones were the Brazen Bull, the Pear of anguish, Chinese Water torture, Crucifixion, Disembowelment, and even psychological torture methods such as White Room torture or Music torture, and the list goes on and on...
Very authentic ways for a person to feel the maximum pain.
For this reason, they were also students that brought up incredible ways for pleasure to be felt. Like that person that wrote the Kamasutra.
A dedicated Pupil of the art of pleasure.
Over the years, many students learnt to mix both branches perfectly, and another study many called BDSM was born.
Regardless of Pain or Pleasure, the goal was to push the human body, mind and soul to the peak of its perfection.
What better way than through the blessing of the five senses?
It was from this place that Lenny graduated with such flying colours that it was recorded as one of the greatest in history.
For Lenny's final Project, he worked on a range of fresh Pleasure and torture methods.
One of which was the one he was about to inflict on Manta.
It was a subtle method and was not as violent, messy or even bloody as most.
He made his study using principles of the spiritual anatomy from Taoism, and Buddhism.
This was a torture method that had to do with the remodeling of the Meridians, and of the Chakra points.
This was something that many tried before him, and of course, all failed, but in Lenny's hands, its beauty was born.
Although he was lacking in a lot of the materials needed for the process. However, owing to the fact that he now had magic points, the process couldn't have been any more straightforward.
Meanwhile, Coco who was a Devil watched Lenny work, and even he could not help but feel some chill deep in his soul.
After all, killing Manta was easy as pie, but Lenny clearly was not ready to pay death for suffering.
After ensuring her body had healed a bit, the process began. He used Razors bones, taking his time to sharpen them into acupuncture needles.
Then he placed them along the right pressure points. Each was done carefully along Passageways through which energy flowed throughout the body.
He focused his attention on all twelve Meridians. Especially in the heart Meridian. After all, he did not want her to die as a result of pain. He made sure to put in extra effort on that part so as to strengthen it.
He did not want to fail as a result of the pain she would experience-a reason that almost made him fail the final exam in his past life.
A hand on her forehead as he chanted a hymn. He used his White Flame as the furnace that melted and remodelled her Meridians.
Truthfully, a big part of his work was made easy with the Satan system as the direction and focus were only done by him.
This was a technique he invented himself.
He thought of using other torture methods, but he did not want to get himself dirty right now.
Besides, the simplest method was sometimes the best.
As he chanted, Coco made observations.
At first, Manta remained steady.
After a while, she could not hold it in and started to scream loudly. The pain was internal and yet not.
Unfortunately, for her, she had lost both hands. She couldn't even scratch.
She rolled and spasmed on the ground like a slug that had been sprinkled with salt. Her mouth formed and her eyes widened in unbelievable shock.
Her screams came at intervals. Although the pain did not.
It was just that the more she screamed, the more pain she felt.
"What did you do to her?" Coco could not help but ask subconsciously.
"Oh, just a little remodelling of her body. At this moment, every part of her being is experiencing unimaginable pain. What I have done is akin to removing her veins and placing them inside out back in her body."
lenny chuckled lightly.
"Even taking in air into her lungs is like being burnt alive. At least she can hold her breath once in a while. The true torture comes from here."
Lenny pointed to her chest.
"Every beat from her heart is the same as the pump of corrosive acid through her veins, and every feel on her skin," Lenny used a finger to poke her.
"AHHHHHHH!!!" She screamed as she shook on the ground.
"Is a mending of red heated metal plates."
After a while, she stopped screaming, and it was clear that she was trying to hold her breath.
But after a while, she would not be able to and her body desperate for life would give way on reflex for her to breathe.
Once again, her screams would feel the room.
Yet, in all this, her pain had not even begun.
After all, Lenny had remodelled her body.
Every sensation was a varying degree of excruciating pain.
If she felt this much pain from just breathing, how much more was the slight cut of a blade on her skin?
Lenny took one of the acupuncture needles in hand to experiment with.
