< Location: Tsuchimikado Tower Lobby. >

" Guess I'm here early. " Andrew says as he was then surrounded by the security guards of the tower.

" Hands on the air! " the securities ordered Andrew that and he immediately raised both of them but still clenched his fingers as he didn't open it fully.

" Open your fingers, let us see what's inside the palm! "

" Don't wanna, skip it! let me in! " Andrew annoyingly responds to the security.

" Playing games, huh!? do you hear what I said!? "

" I don't, Mr. Security, will you please tell me nicely what to do!? " Andrew asks with a mocking expression, with a bit of laugh on his face, this pissed off the security chief who see him mocking his authority.

" Oh, if that's what you want, you... " he gets pissed off as he immediately ordered the security guards to bring their weapons and attack Andrew at once.

Andrew sees them coming towards him as he counts from three to one, in that moment, he opens his fingers full, releasing a huge Dark Energy Wave that affects all security guards at once.

" What the, my eyes? " said the security as his vision goes dark, he sees no light as darkness covered his eyes from seeing anything just like the others around him, affected by Andrew's Dark Gift Ability Skill.

[ Dark Blinding ]

[ A Skill using the Darkness to essentially blind all nearby area opponents. ]

" Phew, it worked... " Andrew says as he steals the sight of his enemies, now blind, the security guards fall and crawled to the ground as they try to feel and sense their direction.

" Bastard, where are you, you cheater! " said the Security Chief as he too crawls onto the ground, trying to see his directions by touching the ground with his hands.

" I'm here! " Andrew speaks while shooting them one by one with his gun weapon, a weapon summoned by transforming his hand which was already covered with an item he once get from the Dungeons.

[ Darksteel Armament: Shifting Hand ]

[ Mode: Snipe Sting ]

Using the weapon's sniping feature, Andrew shoots the guards with a sedative gun, one that could sedate hundred-meter-tall monsters.

" Thank you brother for making this ammo for me. " Andrew says, thanking his late brother for the ammo he crafted, he recounted his brother Carnegie, the father of his nephew he has once taken care of, he remembers him for being a great professor as he worked in Trinia Country's Military, he created many things for the Soldiers and Inquisitors, thus making them able to succeed on killing monsters and demons for years.

" Hope your son will take your geniuses brother, in science or in whatever subject he will be at, in the future. " Andrew says while remembering his motives for doing this, his reason.

It all started after the events of September 6, 2015.

Back then, news struck him down hard, the news of his brother and sister-in-law's death as well as his nephew's torture which made him have to return to Trinia to visit his mother Rory, and check on his nephew's condition which he found him in such a sorry state.

[ Trinia Child Asylum ]

" Your nephew is in critical condition, Mr. Andrew. " said the psychiatrist in charge of dealing with the boy.

As he talks with Andrew, they see the boy, all skinny sitting in the corner of the isolation room, seen by them through the glasses which they could see the boy inside.

" The child is named Ragna Kent and just became six this year. "

" The Inquisitors said that this kid was abducted and raped by a woman, a powerful woman who killed both of his parents and... "

" His dog, named 'Shadow'... "

" How...? " Andrew asked as he sees his nephew's poor condition the psychiatrist tells him that the boy refuses to eat or have a bath, fearing to open his body to others as the torture wounds really affect him badly.

" How could this happen!? " he said to the psychiatrist.

" Who is the 'Powerful Woman' the Inquisitors spoke of, I want names!? " Andrew asks in anger to the psychiatrist but he told him that the Inquisitors refused to tell them more, they said that it's the gods' orders to not only classify the details but also to close the event from public knowledge.

Hearing that, Andrew shouts at the psychiatrist, asking him if he had the number of the Inquisitors who found his nephew as well as his parents' corpses the psychiatrist tells Andrew and pleas for him not to do so for the Inquisitors will likely kill them since they want to keep things disclosed so tight as the doctors in the Asylum are also forbidden from finding out, not to mention, these orders are directly from the gods' themselves.

" What? " Andrew slams his butt into the chair as he sees his nephew in the other room, he felt pissed to hear it.

While contemplating the situation, Andrew could only consume the bad news himself and decided to ask the doctor if he could see his nephew for a sec.

" You want to enter his isolation room? " asked the psychiatrist which Andrew responds by staring sharply at him.

" I wasn't asking... " Andrew says as he clenched his fist in front of the psychiatrist who prepared himself to phone for guards as he feared Andrew's already muscular and killer physique, he fears Andrew wanted to punch him, but before he could call for backup.

" Don't even think about it, doc! " Andrew releases his pressure which frightens the psychiatrist, he fills him with pressure which made the psychiatrist lose his energy to even call his backup.

" Mine is Tier 5, call the guards and I'll assure you they will meet their end. "

" And if they punched by me, their lives will be in your hands, okay doc... " Andrew tells him.

After pressuring him with his Gift Energy, Andrew decides to enter Ragna's isolation room he opens the door and sees the boy on the corner.

...

( Inside Ragna's mind. )

" Kukuku! " the Yakan Curse 'plays' with Ragna as it tortures him in his own mind.

" Mom, dad! " Ragna cries as he tries to get up from the wounds he had.

" It's no use, mommy and daddy are dead now, Ragna. "

" I'm the one now that you have. "

" For we will be together, from now on. " Yakan Curse says as she tortures Ragna's mind even more, creating a realm where Ragna was tortured many times for reason Ragna still don't understand.

...

( Back to reality. )

"~ Indura-Sama, Yakan Curse ~, " the boy says the name in shivers, still traumatized by his torture on that day.

"~ Please don't hurt me. ~ " he says as he hugged himself hard in fear, memories of that day haunt him hard.

" Indura? Is that the one who tortured you? " Andrew asks as he approached the boy who looked at him while crying.

" Easy, Ragna... " Andrew lowers his body to kneel before the boy, in order for him to feel safe.

" It's me, your uncle, Andrew, remember...? " Andrew tells Ragna while he still shivers with fear due to his trauma.

"~ Uncle..., Andrew... ~, " Ragna says as his eye fell out of tears.

"~ Uncle Andrew... ~ " Ragna slowly but steadily remembers him as he met Andrew at an early age, even during his early age, he already could speak hence why he was schooled early when he was four by his parents.

Andrew smiled as he now knows Ragna remembered him, as Ragna then slowly calls his name while trying to smile as he says it.

"~ Uncle... ~ " Ragna smiles despite his fears and tears which made Andrew's heart feel good as Ragna tries to be happy again, showing his smile which made Andrew relieved.

" Yes, it's me, boy... " Andrew laughs while releasing a bit of a tear.

" It's really me, uncle had come home, now... " Andrew says as he then hugs Ragna which made Ragna felt more happy as he feels safe in his uncle's arms.

( Hours later, after the two talked. )

" You want me to erase his traumatic memories? " asked the psychiatrist to Andrew as he holds Ragna who sleeps under his hold.

" Yes, my nephew here will never continue life if the past still holds him... "

" I've already talked about this with my mother, his grandmother... "

" Before coming here, we already wanted to somehow, make the kid forget of that event. "

" Is it possible? " Andrew asks the psychiatrist then nods as he already thinks about doing that procedure even before Andrew asked him to, he even thanks Andrew for thinking the same way about the solution.

" I will prepare the procedure, please wait here. " said the psychiatrist as he leaves.

After he leaves, Andrew looked at Ragna who was asleep, realizing that the decision was for the best.

" In the next hours, we will do the 'Memory Erasure' procedure, Ragna. "

" Using modern technology, we will make you forget the memories that haunt you. "

" Some memories outside those you also will forget, but this is for the best, boy. "

" I'll promise... "

" For my brother, your father... "

Ragna sees the memory, he only responds in silence as he sees his uncle's memory from the Records, he looks down after knowing it all, his memory loss of the September 6th Event, it was all his uncle and grandma's doing.

"( Thank you, uncle... )"

"( I knew it you did it all for me... )" Ragna says to himself while Battle Maiden opens another record.

She sees the whole thing, while also remembering something she knows about Ragna's trauma, from Aphrodite, back in the Abyss Tower.

She also remembers the Yakan Curse, the Curse she destroys back then, now knowing how much torture Ragna had been through in the past.

"( Such evil, this Indura goddess... )" Battle Maiden says as she continues to show more.

"( I hope Ragna could bring judgment to her deeds onto him and his parents. )" Battle Maiden could only pray after seeing that records.
