As soon as the whip hit him against his skin, Eric gave a painful grunt when he felt his own skin break. Already feeling the sting, he clenched his teeth and shut his eyes tightly to not allow the crew to see his pain. A second hit his back, and this time, it was much more painful than the first. He let the same sound out as before. Hades watched with a stony yet pleased face as the Huntsman was whipped repeatedly in the same spot three more times. It was a slow process, but it ended quickly. Later, two crewman tossed Eric's wounded body into a lower part of the deck, which was partially filled with water. It was a height that covered the Huntsman's ankles. He slowly tried to stand up, but the pain was too much and he could only get to his knees. He still had his destroyed shirt on, revealing the red streaks upon his once clear back. Now, he had to wear the scars of Hades himself. "You had it easy, boy!", the crewman laughed before they left to attend to other duties.
