During her younger days, At the time when Virus was still beginning to understand the human language, Virus was never allowed to venture out and her parents had made up a lie about how another world was beyond the Kingdom walls.
Virus was told that this other world was vastly different from theirs.
Her parents had said that the other world beyond the wall were filled with dangerous people whose intentions were to cause her harm.
That alone had inflicted her with fear which was exactly what they were aiming for.
Unfortunately, that fear didn't last long. When Virus clocked the age of 5, She asked again and her curiosity won making her sneak out, but before she could make it past the threshold of the gate, She was caught.
Once Virus clocked the age of six, she began to observe everyone around her. She could notice her parents hushed whispers everytime they were around her.
Virus could see it in the way people in the kingdom looked at her and the whispers. Virus knew she was different although no one could tell that she had observed their actions.
All they knew was that a child of that age couldn't be smart enough to such extent.
Those memories flashed before Virus's eyes making her eyes water since she could now understand what those whispered words meant.

Dwellers were known as the animals that was infected by the Blood of my Ancestral Mother Virus Blood the (1st). While the infected were the humans who were affected by the Blood.
Three years ago Virus didn't know it was their Bloodline that caused this disaster but now that she is well informed, she finally knows what her blood could do. Or so she thought.
A month after the attack on the Kingdom, Virus disturbed her brother with constant questions about their parents. Belor having no Choice dragged her back to the castle. Upon their arrival, Both siblings were quite shocked at the scene right in front of the Gate.
Right outside of the Castle grounds was where the fight took place. The bodies were mostly of infected individuals dead or decapitated in once gruesome way or the other.
Virus observed. Her gaze frantically moving around the lifeless bodies hoping to find who she was looking for. Her Knight but it seems he was nowhere to be found.
Following behind her Brother, Who stood right in front of the gate, Virus was expecting him to knock but all he did was place his palm on the barrier that enclosed the Kingdom in a red Coocoon.
When his palm came in contact with the barrier, Virus was expecting some kind of reaction from him till suddenly the Barrier opened up a space wide enough for the two of them to enter.
°What was that?° Virus asked curious
°That is an emergency protective barrier. It has different functions. Not only does it cover up the whole kingdom and makes it appear as an empty land, it also stops invaders from entering the kingdom. Any individual who doesn't have our Blood running through their veins, once their skin comes in contact with the barrier, they burn° Belor explained his tone serious.
Belor wasn't in the mood for all this, especially taking care of a seven year old who had been pampered to the call. Belor had never thought of his sister to be wise neither has he thought that she was even ready for the role she had been given.
Since the time Virus had been born, all Belor has seen his parents do was pamper the child. Never once training her like they did him. He could still remember those trainings that only adults were able to perform, but he performed them at the age of six.
Belor began his training at the age of six, his parents wanted him to be strong enough not just to protect himself but most especially his sister.

~SLAM!!~
°Virus! I called you like an hour ago and you're still not responding! Did you forget our daily routine?!.....° Belor shouted while barging into Virus's room.
Virus barely moved from her relaxed position on the balcony, her posture never changing from leaning against the Chair that was situated there. Responding with a tone of nonchalance.
°Of course I do remember. After all, it is the same thing I've been doing for the past three years of my life°
Suddenly Virus felt a wave of sudden anger towards everything then she continued her anger having gotten to a point that it needed to be released.
°I am 10 brother! Need I remind you!? I work just as hard as you do, yet you tend to make it seem like I don't care! My mates are out there being protected by their parents but here I am training to get stronger with my dear 22-year-old brother by my side and not my parents. Which by the way, I haven't been given a single reason as to why!, Why! I... I must get stronger!°
Virus's little shoulder shook. Belor watched as his 10year old sister broke down. His heart ached, he wanted to reach out but he couldn't, all the cells in his body were warning him to stay away.
It wasn't like his cells were screaming DANGER! RUN! No, it wasn't. instead, his cells were telling him 'Yo bro! Don't fall for that trick! You need to be the mean and strict teacher right now till she clocks the right age! It's a No man! Don't break NEVER!' Those were his inner thoughts.
About to take a step forward just to console his sister when he heard the voice of Kennedy in his head, their last conversation before he dived head first into battle.
°Belor! What are you still doing in the hunter's Bureau!?° Kennedy's voice rang out behind Belor scaring him
°Shit man! You need to stop sneaking up on me like that! Didn't you hear that explosion!? Of course, I needed to get the Lucifers ready for battle!°
Kennedy's face suddenly turned black he stared at Belor like he was staring at a foreign person. °Bloody hell you are! Battle!? Do you hear yourself right now!? You sound like that pathetic child that had his head far up his ass when he was still a kid! Or did you forget!?°
Belor remembering his past self his demeanor changed. °How am I like that fucked up brat from then!? I have changed! And right now my duty as the fucking head of the hunter's bureau matters! If I am not reacting the way I'm supposed to, well, you can blame that on my parents because I don't see what I am doing wrong here°
Understanding what was going on Kennedy began to explain. Once he was done Belor's Aura suddenly changed and with a final statement Kennedy began to take control of the hunters
°You are now her teacher! No longer her Brother! She will need a teacher the most to survive this disaster° After listening to Kennedy's last statement Belor disappeared from his position.
'Right now my sister needs a teacher, not a brother! At least not until she's ready'
