'Who am I?'
The question echoed in Orion's mind, repeating endlessly like a loop of words.
Orion lay on his back, staring at the sky, his eyes and expression lost in confusion.
He couldn't comprehend how his mental state had weakened so abruptly, as if a dam within him had cracked, letting all the negativity he had suppressed rush in. Every day, he fought fiercely against the dark emotions birthed from the Curse Transformation, battling thoughts of despair, anger, and fear.
He refused to give in, convinced that as long as he held strong, nothing could bring him down. He believed he had fortified his mind through relentless effort, tempering his will with every mental struggle by practicing in the state of Curse Transformation.
The constant battles had made him feel invincible, as if no darkness could penetrate his defenses. He had faced so many challenges, always believing he'd come out stronger.
