"Argh!"A groan rang out in a bloodied cave.Snip!"...Ah!"Orion bit his lips hard to prevent any sound from escaping from him.It was now two weeks since Orion got a mental change and the torturer was not having fun anymore.He just wanted to finish his job and run away from the freak before him.Orion no longer begged or endured. The more the days went by, the more he got used to the pain.But that wasn't the creepiest thing.Sometimes Orion would laugh or cry out of nowhere while murmuring strange words and names.So the man couldn't even sleep peacefully.Yes, he didn't have a choice but to sleep in the same cave for the time of his job. It was an order from his boss.He accepted because of the huge amount of money offered, but now he was regretting it.Imagine being woken up by a laugh and sobs in the night ?He didn't cry anymore when he tortured him, so why the hell was he crying in the night ?!As for his laugh, it was even worse.He tortured several hundreds of people in the

Orion raised his leg and...Bam!He kicked the panther in the leg.Crack!Bam! Bam! Bam! Bam!Covering his fists in dark green mana, he punched in the sensitive parts of the panther's face."Grr!"The panther angrily swung his claws but Orion dodged it, though there was a deep cut on his cheek now."Take this!"Catching the panther's face with both hands, he raised his knee.BAM!"GRROAAA!"The panther growled in pain as his canines broke from the shock."It's over."Orion placed his left palm on the panther's face.The beautiful dark green tattoo on his left hand glowed and..."Njord Wind...The dark green wind swirled again and the panther's face deformed in sheer fear upon seeing this.Buzzzzzzz!"...Air Blast"BOOM!The panther leader's head vanished and his body or what was remaining from his body was sent flying away toward the three other slumped panthers.CRASH!Growl____!The only panther who was barely alive died from the impact.Dust flew everywhere and the ground was deepl

"They found Lord Orion's emplacement!""""WHAT?!"""Several people shouted and turned toward him."I-Is it true ?"Liana broke immediately from her depressed state and asked."Y-yes Your Imperial Highness. Vice-Commander Salazar is waiting outside for you."The knight said, glancing at the 'heroes'Whoosh!Liana rushed at full speed outside."Hmpf!"Anna snorted and followed after her.Soon the whole class followed."You are finally here."Salazar said in a bitter tone.He was standing right in front of the exit of the rift."U-Uncle, is it true that you found him ?"Liana asked emotionally."Yes, we found a witness.""Really ?!""Yes. He said that he saw a masked man transporting an unconscious boy two months ago the night of the banquet."Salazar replied still 'bitterly' but he was laughing hard inwardly."But why has he not reported it before?!"Liana raised her voice.Salazar shook his head at his niece."Sorry Lia, he just woke up from his coma.""Wh-what?!""He was stabbed by a

"Say, Soren."A young woman called out to a young man."Hm ?"Soren turned toward Runa, seated near him on a rock.Her beautiful hazel eyes showed a hint of worry."D-Do you think we will be in Valhalla after all that ?""What are you saying, Runa ?"Soren frowned at her question."I-I mean Vanadis will be there, right ? I just wanted to see her again...""Mother huh..."Soren thought about his mother. There were only two people he cared about in this world.Runa and his mother Vanadis.Unfortunately, his mother died eight years ago, when he was ten.No.She was killed by his half-brothers."Yeah...there is no doubt that she will be in Valhalla."Soren nodded with a smile.His mother was extremely strong after all and she fought bravely until the end..."And we will also Runa."He said, patting Runa's grey hair.Runa smiled happily at Soren's touch.Then she put her head on Soren's lap.Thinking about something, her expression turned sour."I don't trust him, Soren.""Who ?""Alfred."

"Dammit...Cough!" Orion cursed while standing up. Ripping a part of his t-shirt, he covered the wound on his chest. The blood tainted the white cloth but the blood had been stopped, at least for now. Orion looked at his surroundings. The area around him was utterly destroyed. At least sixty panthers' bodies were littering around, or what remained littering from their bodies. "Cough!" Orion walked slowly toward the temple. He was staggering and his face was deathly pale. But he at least wanted to know what was inside the temple before his death. He knew he was going to die, so he might as well find what was inside the temple. "Ah...ah...ah...ah...ah" He entered the temple and found just a silver stele in the center. It was similar to the stele in the grand hall of the Solaria Palace he saw the day he awakened. Reaching the stele, he put his bloodied left hand like before to awaken. Suddenly, the blood from his hand seeped into the stele. Orion didn't even notice that, a
