Chapter 527: Escaping, Deep Humiliation
Layna wasn't a cruel person, but at this moment, she felt like she was because a person was screaming in pain right in front of her. Instead of feeling bad, she actually deeply enjoyed it. It was the first time in her life she felt such twisted pleasure.
The woman on the ground, screaming in pain, didn't deserve any sympathy. The number of people she had ruined was probably uncountable. If Yaeger hadn't had the foresight to ask Yunuen to request the Pharmacist's Association's president to protest in the grand prison, Layna would have been utterly ruined by now.
The screams, worse than pigs being slaughtered, continued. The soldiers and jailers still awake on the human wall were nothing but shocked. They couldn't imagine the amount of pain a human had to be in to let out such horrifying screams.
"How do you feel? Better?" Yaeger looked at Layna and asked.
"Much better!" Layna nodded hard, her heart filled with joy. The feeling of being valued by someone else was awesome.
"Since" Just as she spoke, Yaegers eyelids twitched, and her expression changed slightly. Layna, slightly confused by her expression, soon understood the reason.
An extremely powerful aura surged from afar, making the air itself feel heavy for a moment.
"Let's go inside," Yaeger quickly grabbed Layna's hand and moved. The latter, returning to her senses, quickly followed with a worried look. The individual who released such a horrifying aura had to be dangerous!
Just as Yaeger and Layna entered the cell, a figure suddenly appeared before the human wall. Under the orange lighting, the warden, his face filled with scars, stared ahead like a villain, his eyeballs nearly popping out. The previous bad premonition had actually come true!
Behind him, the middle-aged Magician, the Warrior with a gray beard, and the short man subsequently arrived. They stared at the wall composed of humans, their faces twitching uncontrollably, expressions ugly with humiliation. This was nothing but utter humiliation to them, a massive slap in the face. The fortress prison, fear-inspiring and nicknamed as hell on earth, seemed like a joke right now.
At the edge of the wasteland, spatial power expanded. Two figures emerged from thin air. It was Yaeger and Layna. They had come out of that so-called living hell, unscathed.
"This feels like a dream," Layna was still in disbelief. Initially, she was nothing but desperate. But after what Yaeger did, she managed to take her revenge. Not only that, but she also escaped that horrible place. This was nothing short of unbelievable. Princess is truly awesome.' She quietly stared at Yaeger, emotions rippling in her heart.
A gust of wind blew through, carrying the smell of dirt and grass. Yaeger ruffled her jet-black hair, which was scattered by the wind, and looked at Layna. "We are safe here for now. What do you plan to do next?"
"My plan" Layna exhaled gently. "Is it dangerous if I go back to Jade City now?"
"It is. Very much so. Especially since you are affiliated with me. That makes it worse," Yaeger added.
"Then I won't go back for now." Layna enjoyed the feeling of liberation as she placed her hands on her back. She hadn't traveled abroad for a long time. What happened now was a great opportunity.
"What do you plan to do?" Yaeger asked.
"I'll return to my hometown first, then travel around the place and keep myself hidden," Layna said truthfully. She was just a pharmacist, both uninterested and incompetent in the political affairs of the Empire.
"Of course. Have fun for a few days before coming back," Yaeger spoke calmly. Instead of making Layna scurry around the city in hiding and live an abnormal life, it was better to let her travel around outside.
After all, Layna couldn't help her in usurping the throne anyway. What bothered Yaeger most was that her business in selling medicine would be halted for some time. The losses would be heavy! Red dog, I'll settle my score with you eventually!'
