"Alaric, that's the right attitude."
"Yes, Brother Alaric, you should've been like this from the start."
I breathed a sigh of relief.
Just then, they continued speaking.
"Cutting the tendons is your punishment. You must accept it, or you'll keep misbehaving."
"That's right, otherwise you'll always be upsetting Zoran."
After saying this, they turned to the blonde thug and said.
"Go ahead and cut. Remember, don't harm anywhere else, or you'll be the ones dying!"
The blonde thug nodded, and the video call ended.
The henchman's knife-wielding hand drew closer and closer.
I struggled desperately, but was pinned to the ground by over a dozen thugs, unable to move.
As I watched helplessly, the small blade about to pierce my skin.
A voice rang out from afar: "Stop!"
The leaders arrived just in time, and the blonde thugs were escorted to the police station.
I was rescued.
They also brought news that I had passed the special pilot exam.
