The real test began soon after. The side tunnel opened to his right, he entered a dimly lit room, at the back he could detect with his mana senses 5 living beings, they were chained to some kind of device.
A drop of cold sweat ran down Ikky's forehead as if a bad feeling ran through his mind.
Ikky cast light magic to be able to see better... He shouldn't have done that, because what was on the other side of the room froze his heart. Chained to the torture device were his mother, his father, his sister and his nephews.
Ikky ran towards them. He tried to forcefully free them from their chains, but he couldn't, it was impossible to break them with brute force. He tried with magic, with all the magic he had learned, but he couldn't free them, they were condemned and handcuffed.
