A Destained Young Master Villain



In a dark underground cell, a burly-looking man can be seen chained up with both his hands hanging in the air. 

This burly-looking man was none other than Gorgon.

Blood dripped from his face, injuries were all over his body, and his eyes were closed as if he were dead.

His aura was constantly being absorbed by the chain that was holding him, so he had no way of escaping, even if he were a Peak Royal Swordsman.

Suddenly the door leading to the underground cell opened, illuminating the entire room, which then made the burly man open his eyes.

His gaze fell upon the doorway, but his eyes were blinded by the light so he could not see who entered. "W-who?" he said weakly.

Then a figure walked in dressed in all white, and as the door closed, his appearance was revealed.

"It's you! Why did you leave me alive? Just kill me!" Gorgon shouted, using up all his strength.

This figure was Zen, he had made Ian and Marie imprison Gorgon in a dungeon located near where all the guards lived. "Why would I? You still have some use for me," he said with a grin on his face. "Do not worry, you will be joining your son soon."

Hearing this Gorgon glared at him fiercely as if his gaze could kill Zen thousand of times by now.

"Anyway, I just came here to check up on you. It seems Ian did a number on you." Zen said as he threw a dark type of pill into his mouth.

'Cough' 'Cough'

After swallowing the drug given to him, Gorgon started coughing nonstop "What 'cough' did you just 'cough' feed me?!" Gorgon asked.

"Nothing really, it is a modified drug I was given by Ian. You know the guy you fought with earlier? He is quite a mad scientist, you know, he invents all types of ridiculous drugs. Quite disgusting drugs."

As soon as Zens's words fell, Gorgon felt like his injuries were recovering, which surprised him.

But then suddenly he felt piercing pain all over his body—his muscles, his bones—and everything seemed like it was getting torn apart into pieces.

Gorgon was about to faint from the pain, but for some reason, he could not, the drug he was given seemed to be keeping him awake.

As Zen watched Gorgon silently as he groaned in pain, he spoke, "Wow, this pill given by Ian is quite good! Fantastic!"

"What if I activate my poison skill on you as well? Well, would a Peak Royal Swordsman be able to handle it?"

"I am quite curious about the extent of the damage these things will do to you."

In fact, Zen came here to test out all types of stuff, as he needed to figure out ways to deal with stronger enemies. For example, in assassination and such.

Zen got his hands on such a good specimen which is Gorgon. Instead of killing him, he took him in as a prisoner. He intended on using him as a guinea pig.

After trying out some stuff like his poison skill and a bunch of poisonous pills given to him by Ian, Gorgon finally collapsed and died with bubbles coming out of his mouth.

'Hoh, it took about twenty types of poisonous pills to take him out even when he was in his weakened state, huh. I would probably need a stronger pill made; I'll ask Ian later if there are any stronger ones.' Zen contemplated.

Now all the dragon lineage people that came to the Astre continent have met the grim reaper. Soon their families back in their homeland would follow them to hell also.

Zen proceeded to use his skill devourer on Gorgon obtaining the skill dragonic enchancement.

'This skill could be combined with the physical enchancement skill in the future.'

"You, father, and son are quite useful," Zen stated this as he looked at Gorgon's lifeless corpse hanging from the chains.

After concluding his words, he turned around and left the dungeon cell.

He also called Marie and Ian back again to arrange things, instructing them that they should start getting ready to invade the Land of Dragons.

========

News quickly spread all over the continent about what transpired in the Tranquil City, and about it being half destroyed because of Gorgon and his troops.

People from the continent all felt angered by some inferior creature suddenly launching an attack on the Astre Continent and even destroying a city. Simply outrageous, they thought.

They all cursed Gorgon and others, saying that they are to be condemned to eternal torture in hell, subjected to a never-ending cycle of demise and resurrection.

Celestia and Daphne, who have also arrived at the academy, are currently with Fiona and Xue.

When Daphne heard from Celestia that Zen was attending the academy, she immediately rushed and came to the academy.

They have also learned what happened while they were away from the academy about Gorgon and his men coming to cause trouble.

While they were sat on the grass relaxing in the shade of a tree, Daphne spoke up, "Hey Fiona, why did Zen go back to his villa?" She was currently looking at Zen's Twittogram.

"I do not know." she responded.

"Hmmm..." As Daphne was scrolling through the feed on her phone, she came across a news story showing what happened to Tranquil City.

"Ummm, girls.." Daphne stood up and showed the screen on her phone to all of them.

"What!" Fiona was shocked to see the news. Xue, on the other hand, was unsurprised since she had long predicted that Zen had some type of scheme.

Being with Zen for two months during their trip around the world has made her understand a bit of Zen.

Both Daphne and Fiona were about to rush to Tranquil City, but then Celestia stopped them and said, "Relax. I just messaged Zen earlier, and he responded saying he was all right." As she showed the message she got from Zen to them. "See."

Both then relaxed and sat back down on the grass.

On the other hand, in the Dean's office, Hermione was flabbergasted at what just happened. Her deductive mind went into overdrive, suspiciously pondering whether Zen's shenanigans held any correlation to the turn of events that had just unfolded in Tranquil City.

Zen completely unhinged Gorgon, triggering a furious frenzy that turned his brain into mush, causing him to recklessly charge straight at the source of his agitation which is Zen.

In fact, Zen knew the personality of Hermione from the , he simply knew that she was going to tell Gorgon about him killing his son to avoiding a battle in the academy.

The moment Gorgon appeared in the academy, all his plans were set in stone.

He has been planning this since the time he killed Goren. He knew that his father would eventually come seeking answers about his son's death from the academy.
