Chapter 436: Wishing for death
They couldn't believe their eyes. The Pre-Intern level Canzer, the monster that they were dreading to face, was already in the hands of Atlan. He had already caught it by himself and was tormenting its life.
They couldn't believe that this was even possible. Even the stronger person in their group, the leader, even if he used his greatest punching LifeSkill, couldn't bring the monster airborne.
Yet, Atlan was holding the Mole Canzer with one hand, all while floating in the air.
No one could believe what they were seeing.
"How…how is this possible…"
"He's a Student-level Porter… I can't understand what's going on!"
"Is that a Student-level Canzer? Were we given the wrong information?"
But as they focused on the Mole Canzer, they found that the aura and energy that it was giving off as it tried to get out of Atlan's grip, was a power that only Pre-Intern level Canzer could bring out.
And if they thought about it more, the Pre-Intern level Canzer was even stronger than they thought.
Yet somehow, Atlan could catch and subdue this monster in just under a few seconds without any help whatsoever. There wasn't even a minute of delay from when Atlan entered the Remedium and when their leader entered it as well.
This meant that Atlan must have caught the Mole Canzer in just under thirty seconds!
That was an insane thought that they could not wrap their heads around.
"Could it be… could the rumors be true?"
One of the Pre-Intern Saviors looked at Atlan with shock and awe. The only way to explain what they were seeing right now was if the rumor about him killing a Specialist-level Canzer was true. If he could kill a Basilisk by himself, then a little Mole Canzer in the Pre-Intern realm would pose no problem to Atlan. And it seemed that they were seeing that exact thing right now.
"Oh my gods…"
"It's true?...it's true!"
"But how… he was only a Student-level Savior just a few weeks ago?! Heck, he just awakened less than a month ago!"
They could only watch on with are and shock as Atlan handled the Mole Canzer with absolute ease. He could have crushed the monster's neck in just a second, but he didn't. He seemed to be doing something to the Canzer.
Even though they were curious as to what he was doing, the team didn't want to move closer to him. They couldn't. They were too stunned to move.
Meanwhile, Atlan looked at the Mole Canzer with coldness in his eyes.
"What is that object? Where is it?" Atlan asked, his grip on the monster's neck getting tighter.
'I don't… I don't know… they didn't tell me…' the mole said.
Of course, Atlan didn't believe the monster's words for a single second.
He began crushing the mole's neck, killing it with a resounding CRACK.
A few seconds later, the Mole Canzer came back to life, gasping for air.
This particular monster was a Destruction-type Canzer, meaning that it could regenerate its wounds, no matter how severe it was.
Usually, this would bring the Canzer joy, and the Saviors dread. After all, this would show that no matter how much the Saviors tried to kill the Mole Canzer, it would always regenerate its wounds.
But in this case, the Mole Canzer couldn't help but curse its own power. After all, just when it thought that it had been freed from Atlan's grip by dying, it would always come back to life and be caught in Atlan's deathly grip.
"What is the object? Where can I find it?" Atlan asked again.
'I don't—'
Before the Canzer could even finish its lies, Atlan crushed its neck again, killing it instantly.
Then, he waited patiently for the Canzer's broken neck to suddenly reconnect again as its body regenerated its fatal injuries.
'GAAH!' the Mole Canzer gasped for breath. 'NO MORE! PLEASE, NO MORE!' the Canzer begged.

Atlan looked at it dead in its eyes and reiterated his question. "Tell me. What is the object, and where can I find it?"
The Mole Canzer shivered. It didn't know what it was going to do. After all, if it continued to lie to Atlan and say that he didn't know anything, then he would continue to feel suffering and pain from being killed a thousand times.
But if he told the truth, he would die from the other Canzers anyway. They would surely find out that he blabbed to a human, and he would get killed by them.
It was a lose-lose scenario, something that the Mole Canzer dreaded.
Just then, a black plushie dragon popped out of Atlan's shoulder and talked to the monster.
"Just tell us the truth now. At least with Atlan, he would give you the relief of being killed in an instant. But do you think the other Canzers would do that? Now, who do you like to be killed by? Atlan, or the other Canzers in your world?" she asked.
As a Canzer herself, the Enchanted Queen knew how Canzers operated. She knew the kinds of horrible punishments, something even worse than death, waiting for the Canzer once he got back home.
Even if the Canzer didn't tell the secret to Atlan, then it would still be punished for failing its mission.
So, the Mole Canzer had no other choice but to tell the truth to Atlan.
'Please… I only heard that the object is going to be used soon… that's all I was told!'
Atlan looked to the Enchanted Queen, who nodded her head. This time, the Mole Canzer was telling the truth. This was all he truly knew.
After all, it was only a Pre-Intern level Canzer. It wasn't going to be told the big secrets, simply because it was too weak.
If Atlan wanted to find out more about this object, then he would need to interrogate higher-level Canzers in the future.
"For telling the truth, I will give you what you wish. An instant death," Atlan said as he brought out his flaming Scythe.
