The Hound was left stunned for a moment, refusing to believe that Levi's strength was truly that deadly to take down twenty-four powerful nightcrawlers on his own... but he knew better than to doubt his master out loud.
Still, he couldn't help but ask, "Then, why have you made them join the game... they might have taken over damaged test clones' bodies with similar evolutionary paths, but I doubt that boy can survive against them."
"Why?" Bishop Na'thir showed a cruel smile, "I want him to suffer... I want him to see his brother and friends getting killed in front of him, one by one... whether he exposes his secrets in the open to save them or not, I don't care... I want him shattered."
Bishop Na'thir might have gone quiet for a while, but he had never stopped seeking his vengeance over Levi's multiple interferences in his plans... he showed him mercy once, and he was paying the price ever since.
No more.
