Before that incident..
Karina was seen sitting in her bathtub while thinking about something
"yes.. im crazy about you"
those words echoed in Karina's memory... in Karina's previous life she was always looked down upon by the big empire and the noble family because she was a low class person who was the only one who managed to enter as a member of the hero party to eliminate the threat of the demon king.
Karina is not a person with good morals.. but she is greedy and hard working because she was born as an orphan
but because of Shirley's goodness.. the hero.. she became ambitious to help her friend in saving the world.
because they had succeeded in killing the demon king and his army.. Karina became famous and was often proposed to by people of rank such as nobles.
but in the end Karina rejected all the proposals because it was not from feelings of love but to take advantage of her status as a great magician.
Karina became a person who didn't have a boyfriend.. all her friends at the party were married except her until she died
so that's an unusual sound for Karina, who is still of low status for now, to be surprised by a confession from a man and she became flustered
"no...I don't know the truth anymore whether he really made that confession or just joking.. for now I'd better forget it.
Karina shook her head and slapped her cheeks with a blushing face
"Urgh... damn it..
*********
Karina then got ready for bed while reciting barrier magic for precautionary measures and then she's sleep..
"Snore..
whoosh! clang!
hmmm?
Karina woke up when her barrier magic was triggered by a fast object thrown at her which alerted her and cast a low level paralyzing spell.
low-level magic is active when a person's strength or endurance is below 20.00, but magic cannot be launched when a person is moving very fast because it is difficult to target.
crrrrr
"urgh.. damn it!
Karina was still stabbed from behind because her opponent was an assassin which was the weakness of a low level mage.
crrrrr!
"Argh!
But suddenly Karina was surprised when the Assassin died suddenly but still he was powerless to get up because of the fatal wounds he suffered.
but...
"yo...you ...
Karina saw Akira holding her while laying her on the bed to rest and walked away
Karina saw Akira discussing something with Marcus and suddenly..
kerchak!
"Argh!
Karina saw Akira chop Marcus' head without hesitation as if he was used to it
and this made her afraid of Akira
"what....
Karina made a pale and sweaty expression that time..
tap..tap..
"Please..don't kill me!
pinch!
"ueeeh?
Karina tried to plead with Akira not to be killed but what she imagined didn't happen..Akira even pinched her cheek angrily
"I have saved your life.. you are still talking nonsense... be grateful little girl!
"urgh..
"hey...
"what?
"I want to ask something..
"what is it?
"Do you know the black order organization?
"of course! are you one of the members?
Akira asked seriously while Karina answered happily
"no.. I'm just interested about it..
"Black order is an organization that helps the big empire in fighting the monster threat.. in addition they often help and support the monster extermination movement.
"is that true?
"of course? why?
Akira tried to calm his overflowing anger with a sweet smile as he listened to the ridiculous story
"nothing.. tell me more about it..
"they always appoint newborn children to be religious people by predicting their fate.. and many have succeeded thanks to the services of that organization.
"wow..very good and loyal to religion yeah!I even want to be one of its members..
Akira said that with a friendly smile but his heart betrayed what he had heard all along
"so that why!.. don't worry I will help you!
"no..I want to work hard without the help of others so that I can be recognized as the best person...
Karina who heard that smiled happily
but suddenly Karina started asking suspiciously
"so... why did you kill that person without hesitation.. as if you had already killed thousands of people..
"because that has become the duty of people who want to be recognized by the Black order like me..
"ouh! what a relief...then why are you annoyed and arrogant with me as long as we are still fighting partners?
"it's because of your greedy attitude that annoys me!
"urgh..
Akira answered cautiously with a smiling expression while Karina began to realize Akira's kindness despite her statement saying otherwise
"by the way..Why is it called Black Order?
"because this organization often helps in the shadows but due to a large empire such as the Great Dragon Empire that exposes the existence of this organization because the good deeds they do gives a positive view in the eyes of the community and some people think that being contacted by this organization is a call from the gods and a bringer of good luck..
"woah.. is that so?
Akira made a surprised face on purpose and said in his mind..
"Is the Great Dragon Empire an ally of the Black Order? then.. the main enemy I have to defeat is not smaller than what I imagined.. damn it! the entire human race has been deceived!..
meanwhile in Karina's mind said..
"Does this person have such a dark history that he wants to become a member of the Black Order to do something? I tried to be nice to him to uncover his dark history.. but it didn't work until I gave up.. what was this person thinking?
Akira was still thinking for a long time but suddenly Karina asked something that Akira did not expect..
"hey..
"what?
"who is Zuri?
Karina said that curiously
***************
In the Glorious Lycan Empire
Clana is seen reading a picture book that contains pictures of her brother Kaita, her sister Zuri and her parents who have been dead for a long time..
because Clana doesn't remember some of her memories.. she can only remember her memories with Zuri
"Sister....
Clana turned the open page to remember her memories with her sister but suddenly..
"My Queen!
"Speak..
"we have informed all the empires including the big empires about the new black class criminals bounty to catch..
"that's not enough.. look for the trail more carefully
"Yes.. my queen..
The courtier bowed his head and asked permission to leave
"hmmm....I should hire an assassin..maybe Black Order?
Clana said that with her eyes glowing purple in the darkness
Clana never remembers all her memories with her parents including her brother Kaita who has manipulated her memory.. and this has fatal consequences for Akira who is a victim of circumstances and a cruel world to him.
Clana got up in her throne chair and went to her room to arrange some plan
