"As I said before, you can refuse me, but there is someone you can't refuse, and that someone is your father himself."

"Even though he's no more in this world, his words still exist. It seems my father knew that we were going to have a hard time asking for Atlan back after your father was gone, so he made this deal before he helped your father."

pαndα`noνɐ1--сoМ "That paper consists of your father's declaration that the two sides are going to share custody of Atlan for a hundred years each in exchange for our help. So, do you still believe you shouldn't hand Atlan over?"

"If you reject me even now, that would imply that the value of a Werewolf King's promise is nothing. I certainly won't mind your refusal, but it won't look good on you, old friend." Zhang stated. "I'm not in a hurry to get your answer. There's still one more day before hundred years are up, so give me your answer tomorrow."

"I'll leave you to your important meeting and take my leave temporarily." He turned around, walking to the exit. "Oh, also about your offer of hospitality, I would certainly accept it. You can tell your men to keep a guest room ready for my stay here. Until then, I'll go and roam the city. See you later, old friend."

Waving his hand, Zhang departed, disappearing from the view of the White Tiger King.

"My King, are we really going to hand over Atlan?" A voice fell in Razil's ears, bringing him out of his daze.

Razil gazed at the young man in the distance. "Do you have any other ideas? My father promised his father. We would have to give him back. We can't go back on our words."

He got off the throne and started leaving as well. "Your Majesty, where are you going?"

"If we only have one more day with Atlan, I believe I should meet him one last time as well. You're all dismissed."

"Key!" Razil stopped before the metallic door that was guarded by two of his strongest werewolves.

One of the two handed over the key, which they were only allowed to bring out on the King's commands.

Razil used the key and opened the Metallic door to gain an entry into a small hallway that only had enough width for one person to walk through.

The entire hallway was covered with strange markings that were carved on the walls, the floor, and even on the roof.

Razil observed the markings as he passed through the hallway.

"I always wondered why that clan decided to help us capture Atlan and even let her have him without asking for anything in return. They even made these Formations for protection, but now I completely understand."

The letter of promise still remained in his hands as he walked.

The entire hallway felt somewhat warm compared to the outside.

At the end of the hallway, there was another door. The King didn't use the key given to him by the guard to open this door. Instead, he brought another key which was hanging around his neck like a pendant.

As Atlan was such a special prisoner, there was not only a risk of him running but also a risk of someone helping him escape. These safety mechanisms were made keeping that in mind, especially targeting the Vampires so they couldn't even get to Atlan.

Razil used his own key to open the second door, which was made from the strongest material known at the time, further reinforced by spells.

The door unlocked.ραпdα `nᴏνɐ| сom

Razil pushed the door open, which was even heavier than the last door. In fact, the door was so heavy that despite being unlocked, Razil needed to apply most of his strength to even push the door open.

Even after he passed through the second door, it still wasn't the end. He still hadn't reached Atlan.

Razil found himself in a chamber that was as big as a football field.

There was no door in this Chamber other than the one he came from.

The chamber appeared to be made using thousands of tiles, and each of those tiles had a unique symbol carved on it.

Razil walked to a certain spot in the chamber and stood over a certain mark.

As soon as his weight landed on the time, a small door-shaped opening appeared behind Razil.

He got off the mark and entered through that small opening, finally reaching the cell of Atlan.

Without stepping on that specific mark, it was impossible to open that door even for gods. No one could even see that opening, let alone break it.

Through the new door, Razil entered the cell of Atlan, where he was being imprisoned.

Chains were wrapping him all around. Both his feet and hands were tied in chains. Another chain wrapped around his neck and waist, keeping him on his knees.

"How do you feel?" Razil's gruff voice echoed in the entire cell.

A red-haired man sat before him, forced to be on his knees. His red hair was so long that they were covering most of his face.

"Kid, Take off these chains from me, and I'll show you how I feel." The young man raised his head, looking at Razil through the openings between his hair. His dark eyes observed Razil.

Despite being tortured so badly that all his clothes were covered in blood, Atlan still looked as if he was perfectly fine.

"You Progenitors are certainly something else. There are stories about you being true Immortals. Many people think that those stories are an exaggeration. If only they could see what happened here. No matter what we try, you just refuse to die."

"Killed by a Werewolf? Even in dreams, that won't be my fate, Razil. Your father already tried his best. You think you can do what he couldn't? Go ahead. Try more. Try for as long as you live. Don't worry; I'll be here even long after you're dead." Atlan scoffed.

"I'm not here to torture you this time. I'm here to tell you that your days are limited. We've found something that can kill you. I'm sure you know what it is, right?"

For a moment, Atlan's expressions changed, but he soon controlled them. "Of course, I know what can kill me. You can. You're so boring; you can kill me with your boredom easily. Is that the thing you're talking about?"

"You can think that. Just know that tomorrow is the day you get out of this place. You'll be killed in the middle of the city, so finally, the invincible legend of yours is gone. I shall let the world see that even Progenitors can't escape death. That's all I came to tell. Since it's your last day. Enjoy."

Razil went back after saying what he had to.

He went back to the massive chamber. The secret door closed.
