Chapter 2254 Being Toyed With
The members of the Sacred Organization were excited at the prospect of toying with Levi’s life.
The death of a fallen legend is something to behold.
Even the Dark Emperor’s gloom dissipated as he was eager to join in the fun.
“Let me be the arbitrator. Place your votes!” the Dark Emperor called out over the clamor of excitement.
The crowd wrote their desired outcome on little scraps of paper.
Aside from the Dark Emperor, the training base of the little unknown island contained four thousand three hundred and twenty-three people.
The number was made up of the inner circle of the Sacred Organization which their slaves and servants.
The Dark Emperor opened the vote to everybody.
It was rather exciting to be a part of history.
Only two outcomes were able to be voted upon—life or death.
Levi stood silently as he waited for the verdict like a slave whose life was being toyed with by his overlords as their source of entertainment.
“The voting officially begins!” roared the Dark Emperor.
After every single vote was cast, the Dark Emperor began to announce the tally out loud.
“One for death!”
“One for death!”
“One for life!”
The Dark Emperor was all excited as he read every single vote out loud, with an attendant keeping score of the votes.
At that moment, the votes for both life and death rose equally.
At the rate this is going, we might have to wait to the very end to know Levi’s fate.
Levi remained silent throughout the entire proceedings. His facial expression was inscrutable.
Some within the crowd speculated that Levi had most likely given up and resigned to his fate.
“Is this the famous Levi? The man who fought the Lab of Gods and single-handedly destabilized their entire operations? How is it possible that his fate is currently depending on the mercy of others?”
“Well, the tables have turned. Luck is with us as he is not what he used to be. Do you think he would have spared our lives if we were at his mercy?”
“Don’t worry, brother. He has no way of fighting back now. His fate is in our hands!”
All the voters looked at Levi who smiled indulgently.
How naive!
“Levi seems awfully quiet now! What happened to his hot temper?”
“That’s right! I remember when he fought his way to the headquarters three years ago. He had wanted to fight the Dark Emperor and demanded Zoey to be handed over!”
“The passage of time is brutal indeed! Look how pathetic he’d become!”
The jeering around him ensued alongside the tally of the votes.
The Dark Emperor’s excitement grew as the number of unannounced votes decreased.
It’s been a long time since I am this excited!
The game of determining one’s fate was so exciting that all of its participants held their breath dangerously close to suffocation.
A thousand votes.
Two thousand votes!
Three thousand votes!
Four thousand votes!
At long last, every single vote was called out.
The atmosphere was pumped with palpable excitement, every eye on the scene was fixed on the Dark Emperor as they waited with bated breath for the final result to be called out.
That was the most agonizing moment.
Levi was really interested in the outcome of the vote.
It’s about to determine my fate after all.
The Dark Emperor wiped the sweat off his brow as he cleared his throat. “The final tally is two thousand two hundred and eighty-five in favor of death!”
“We have a majority!” he proclaimed as deafening cheers erupted on all sides. “Levi is sentenced to death! This is the final verdict!”
“Hooray!”
“Hahaha….!”
“We’ve won! Levi will die today!”
The ones who had voted for Levi began cheering jubilantly.
However, Death Fiend and the rest looked forlorn as they were hoping to see Levi being subjected to further torture as they believed that a slow death was far more satisfying.
“Death is what you have chosen, is it not? Then death is what it shall be!”
Suddenly, Levi’s voice rang out.
