Ascension of the Dark Seraph - Chapter 202
Chapter 202: Imprisoned Chapter 202: Imprisoned In a dense wood sitting around a bonfire was a group of people.
Ragnar was among them-and he was currently eating, savoring the raw meat of a hunted deer as if it was the most delicious dish in the world.
As a Werewolf Hybrid, the night has become his close friend and the primal way of living becomes a necessity.
“Do not overeat or you’ll lose control, your constitution is still not strong enough” the old man said.
He was watching Ragnar from the shadows and came out to reprimand him.
“Just a little bit more…” Ragnar muttered in infatuation.
However, the old man quickly snatched the raw deer leg from Ragnar’s grasp.
Realizing that his food was stolen, Ragnar snapped towards the old man-his fangs poked out as anger bubbled inside him, “You’re nothing more than my protector!
Do you think you can treat me like this?!
So what if I lose control, it’s your job to restrain me” “Wrong,” the old man shook his head.
“I’m also your teacher until you pass the Chrysalis rank” A Werewolf Hybrid has a lot of complications.
It’s a custom for the Crimson Wolf Clan to assign a supervisor, a stronger and older Werewolf Hybrid to a new Werewolf Hybrid until they understand the implications of their constitution.
Considering that there was an incident years ago involving the losing control of an entire pack that ransacked the city and the death of thousands, the Hybrid Association kept an eye on them.
And it seemed Ragnar still didn’t understand that.
“Unless you wanted to be beaten again, stick to eating cooked food for a while,” the old man continued.
His eyes looked at Ragnar sharply.
A brief leak of his ether was enough to slap Ragnar to reality.
Even though becoming a Werewolf Hybrid made cooked food taste bad and raw food taste heavenly, he couldn’t indulge too much.
If he wanted to eat more raw food to satiate his primal hunger-then he would need to get stronger.
“Y- Yes, I’ll stop,” Ragnar turned his gaze away reluctantly.
But inside, he was fuming.
‘Once I got Elira, I’ll secretly devour her bloodline and strip her of power.
That would allow me to reach the five-star rank and establish my Alpha status.
At that point, I could force her to be my Luna.
I’ll certainly be acknowledged by Father then.
Just wait and see old man.
Even if you were tasked by my Father to help me grow, I will not forgive you for forcing me to act submissively like this,’ Ragnar thought inside, As he thought of that, a rustling sound could be heard.
A man stepped out of the bushes and made an entrance.
Ragnar recognized this man, he was one of his Father’s outer pack members who was on his side now.
“Bad news,” the man declared and knelt down beside Ragnar.

“that academy hunter-Hunter Lucivar was caught and brought away by the Hybrid Association for killing a student.
He was captured a couple of hours ago while he was with Elira” “What?!” Ragnar stood up abruptly.
“Is it only the Hybrid Association?” “No, Callista is also there” the man answered.
Upon hearing this, Ragnar’s brows dipped into a frown as this was bad news indeed.
‘I could tell that academy hunter is not simple, something is off about him and I held a high expectation for him because of that,’ Ragnar placed a finger on his chin, contemplating.
‘Did Callista find out that he was working for us?
She was there-so there’s a possibility.
Tch!
How can I get my hands on Elira now?’ Ragnar gritted his teeth hard-this wasn’t what he wanted to happen.
He needed to have Elira.
It was bad luck that his bloodline chose Elira to be his Luna but there was no other way.
Once he was able to force Elira to accept her role as his Luna, he would be able to use her as a tool to suppress the Green Tempest clan-and devour them entirely.
So this messed up his grand plan to be acknowledged by his Father.
“What should we do?” the man looked up at Ragnar for an answer.
Ragnar could only grit his teeth, deciding to change his plan to the more drastic one.
… A few days passed.
As someone who was only charged with murdering a student, he should’ve been detained in a temporary cell until the trial day arrived but instead of being detained there-Lucivar was brought into a desolate, and smaller building belonging to the Hybrid Association within the slum of Sunhold City for the worst criminals.
Underneath it was an underground crypt where he was detained.
For the last couple of days, he has been playing a game with a lovely torturer he has come to know as Larson.
He’s a Demon Hybrid.
Larson has been frivolously whipping him with a bone-covered whip.
Each strike was strong enough to bruise his skin and with enough strikes, pierced through his skin.
“Rrgghk!” “Hoho~ That’s the first moan of the day, I like it!” Pah!
“Grghkk!” “Come on!
Scream louder!
As a master, you should scream better than your maid, shouldn’t you?!” Pah!
Pah!
Lucivar hung from the ceiling, shackled by chains that drained his ether and rendered him powerless to use any of his abilities.
He couldn’t resist as the whip lashed across his bare back, each strike deepening the raw, blood wounds that marred his flesh.
It took another ten minutes of whipping until Larson finally stopped.
He approached closer and poured a cold substance on Lucivar’s back, causing the pain to increase.
Even though it was painful, the substance was in fact, a healing vial.
But unlike the normal healing vial that was cool and pleasant to use, this one was created to heal all of the wounds like a normal healing vial-but caused the most pain possible.
Lucivar knew about this as this wasn’t the first time Larson poured it on him.
“Phew~” Larson wiped his sweat.
“Recover well.
I’m hungry, so you have some time to breathe” As soon as he said that, the chains were opened.
Lucivar and Sabrina fell to the ground weakly, their bodies were completely exhausted and in pain.
“Are you not afraid of what I’ll do to you once I get out of here?” Lucivar suddenly asked, stopping Larson right at the door.
“If I got into trial and was found guilty, you’re going to go through hell and back for what you did” Upon hearing this, Larson paused for a second before he burst into laughter.
He laughed exaggeratedly as if Lucivar had said the funniest joke known to mankind.
“Do you really think you’ll get a fair and just trial?” Larson scoffed, his gaze dripping with contempt as he looked at Lucivar like a bad joke.
Stepping closer, he crouched before Lucivar, a wicked grin curling his lips as he patted Lucivar’s head like a misbehaving pet.
“Better yet, do you think you’ll get a trial at all?
You’re nothing-a nobody.
And once I’m bored of you, you’ll die here” Larson laughed again as he made his way out, today has been very amusing for him.
Once the door was closed shut-Lucivar exhaled lightly.
‘He’s also a nobody.
He probably couldn’t kill me until the Feradith Family was freed from suspicion.
All that talk, he really thought I’m stupid’ He shook his head in disbelief, the one who was a fool was none other than Larson.
‘Now… It should be about time Dullan to visit me’ Being cramped here, the day of his supposed meeting with the Crimson Wolf Clan has come to pass.
It was supposed to be yesterday.
Lucivar would be hunted down by them if he somehow got out of this place because of this failure.
Naturally, what Callista did disturbed the plan he had in his mind.
‘However, that’s not entirely the case.
In fact, it might be good that this happened’ Lucivar thought inside, his eyes gleamed with an emerald hue.
‘I just need to wait but man… being whipped like this fucking hurts.
I hope Larson changed his approach’ Just as he thought of that, he glanced to the side and found Sabrina was still lying on the cold floor.
She seemed to be shivering from the pain but Lucivar knew better.
“Get up,” He commanded nonchalantly.
“I know you were enjoying this, you damn Succubus” “If only my ether is not blocked, I’ll share my constitution with you” Sabrina replied as she sat up.
As a Succubus Hybrid, pain is nothing for her-rather, it’s nourishment.
“But don’t be mistaken…” Sabrina continued, licking her lips in delight-as she cast a playful glance at Lucivar.
“I’m not excited because of the pain but because I could feel your trust in me was growing at a rapid pace inside of you” “My trust?” Lucivar raised an eyebrow lazily.
“Of course,” Sabrina placed both hands on her reddening cheeks, acting shy and docile.
“Your personal maid took on the punishment of your mistake-without hesitation.
Such a daring and dauntless display of loyalty was certainly strong enough to move your hea-” Slap!
Out of nowhere, Lucivar smacked her on her head hard.
Sabrina held her head and shot a glare at Lucivar, “What was that for?!” “Stop spouting nonsense, you’re only willing to do this because you like pain and you wanted to score points on me since you know my bloodline is not normal,” Lucivar snorted, he could see right through her.
“After all, you heard what Caldaros said.” “Hehe~” Sabrina rubbed her cheek with a finger with a wry smile.
She was completely see-through.
It was as if Lucivar could read through her mind without a problem.
But then, Sabrina’s eyes widened and her face reddened once again when a hand rubbed her head.
“Regardless, you did good” Lucivar praised.
Upon hearing him praising her, Sabrina could feel her heart was about to burst from her chest.
‘Isn’t this the first time he actually praised me?’ She pondered inside.
Lucivar’s hand then stopped when he recalled something she said earlier, “Wait a minute, what do you mean by sharing your constitution?
Since when can you do that?
I never knew you were capable of that kind of ability” “Huh?
I already used it on you earlier” Sabrina blinked in confusion.
It was only then do Lucivar realized the weird ability Sabrina used on him that night.
“Wait, when the pain inflicted on me was turned into pleasure and exhilaration…” “Yes, that’s my new ability from reaching the Acolyte rank.
I can give someone one of my traits” “Damn, so you were a masochist all along!
I thought it was an ability that turned pain to pleasure” “Hehe~ Don’t expose me like that master, I’m shy” Just as the two were bickering, the door was opened again.
But it wasn’t Larson who stepped inside, it was another man-another prison guard.
“Come out,” He commanded.
“Someone is here to visit you”
