Chapter three
Damien hands balled into a fist as drop of tear ran down his cheek thinking of all this
he recall the sadness in his father's voice earlier, was he just pretending to be OK just to make him happy?
is it because of me he lost his sight or did he intention take his sight just to be with me?
countless thought and possibilities ran through his head like a race car tournament
he raised his head to look at the youngster now kicking and hitting this doing girl over and over again. his brow knitted in rage as he stare at the scene from his hideout
"just because we are different, we look different, we're now monsters" the idea if the world he had in his mind shattered into million pieces
"humans are no different from the beast father takes me to hunt, no that's not right. they are worse than those beast"
distance away from the scene, the blind man lean in a tree top watching things play out and ready to intervene if things goes out of hands
he had noticed that little girl which is dark crimson Aura, an aura belonging to monsters
but the shade of dark is extremely light to the point you wouldn't outrightly call it dark crimson if not for the ting of it in it.
he had come across one of this back in the days, but that entity had a more darker shade of crimson Aura.
comparing this one and that one and the traits ands personality contrast, he could say this monster seems yo be on the good side or so it seems
he hadn't come across them that much, but books and scrolls stated of entities which were initially beast at some point but gain self awareness and became sentient being
they are said to be very malicious and terrifying, he could latest to that from the one he met back then
but this little girl seem different, though he could see the ting of anger and rage aura mixed up within her dark crimson Aura
she seems to always suppress that aura once it want to get too dominant, on he other hand
things were so for Damien which got him worried, his prisms aura now is having violent ting of blood red and oliver green which depicts intense rage, hatred and disgust
the leading youngsters got two other kid to pick the young girl up and with his fist covered in lighting spark, planted a punch on her stomach
which threw the girl against a tree, spitting out a mouthful of blood, he blind man was about to step in when he suddenly halt his step
his expression unable to tell what was going through his mind as he gaze at Damien with twitching lips.
Damien feeling his rage got to the peak when he saw the girl spat out blood suddenly went into frenzy along with his Magi awakening the same time
the geometric pattern on his Iris spin rotational while his mind was overloaded with new information, but that wasn't all
his body also was reacting to this foreign information, stimulate and adapting itself to fit in he influx of information. deciphering, encoding and imprinting it to every cell in his body.
the little girl that had remained unresponsive all this while suddenly turned towards Damien direction and was shocked to a point the reaction on her face didn't go unnoticed by the other who turned to her line of sight
the were shocked by the sight they saw, panting from overwhelming rage is none other than Damien but he isn't Damien anymore but an express perfect copy of the girl they were bullying
the kids had to interchange look between the beaten up girl and Damien coup as if they are seeing things or its an illusion
"you bastard!" Damien roared at them, his voice more of a powerful hissing sound than the meek but angry voice that overlayed it
the kids stumbled back in fright hearing that voice, even the parent some distance away hear the hissing sound and felt their scalp go numb for a split second.
the leading youngster out of fear and instinct shot out a lightning bolt at Damien but the other evaded it with an incredible fluid speed that got the kid daze
not just him even the blind man didn't know how to react to the situation on ground
elderly are already rushing over and things is far from being simple from what he could see
he wasn't wrong because right when Damien evaded that strike his body took a drastic change, growing in size and features changes
morphing into a huge basilisk serpent in a split second, hissing angrily at Rhee kid as his eyes shone with a mythical light
just then the girl that had been silence all this while dashed to the front of the kid, her eyes having the same glow as that of the basilisk
there seem to be an invisible force battling and canceling out each other between Damien and the young girl till it died out
"don't kill them please" she begged in tears which halt Damien action to charge forward and slay the kids
his eyes retain a but of his rationality as he gaze at the girl before him
"please don't kill them, I beg of you" her meek voice sound like a melody to the ear, she turned to she people charging in from the distance and would be up on them any moment
Damien followed her line of sight and saw them rushing over too, unfortunately for him his huge size isn't something they could miss as they were already preparing to battle with him
"let's just get out of here" she add, pleading Damien to let the kids go and escape from here
Damien hesitated for a moment before swooping down towards the girl and with an agile maneuver made an awkward twist that coil around the girl
giving her the opportunity to hop on him and with furious speed dashed into the woods, disappearing from sight.
"don't let that demon spawn escape" one of the elder roared while activating is Magi
ice blue aura burst out of him, taking a dharma body of a snow Lion which shot after Damien
the others activated their magi too, chasing after them with intent to take that monstrosity down
Damien father stood rooted I place stirring at the direction Damien left in and the others chasing after him. "this damn brat he will lead them to my place"
he opt to chase after them but couldn't help but glance at one side of the forest with a complicated gaze
others would miss it but not him who had witness everything, there are a set of leaves on the nearby tree that had been hit by that invisible force earlier
it seems nice from first glance except you look close enough, the edge of the leaves seems to have solidify into stone and that is where the energy had touch earlier
"what a deadly power" he mutter to himself before chasing after the others chasing in pursue of Damien
.....
Damien rustle through the woods, destroying trees at his work and those in pursue is out in their trail
the girl look back to see the dharma energy construct lion gaining on them and its summoner riding it
Damien his in anger, wiping a few tree towards the beast with his tail. the lion count with a sonic roar of its own filed with ice energy
Damien eyes began glinting an ominous glow which the girl noticed and react promptly by patting Damien to calm down
she turned to the charging in beast and just like Damien eyes, hers took the ominous glint.
the man riding the beast felt a premonition heading his way, he quickly leap off the beast which broke down to ash instantly
someone else with wings manifestation swoop down to grab him and tossed him to another magi user who has Titian magi.
just when they were gaining on Damien that seem to be slowing down a powerful black flame cut a path between the pursuer and Damien
the group halt their chase seeing that dark flame as a fearful look appeared on their faces, some one took the Tim to scan his environment and couldn't help but yelp in fright
"we've enter the sword demon domain" the others also noticed this and quick bolt back in retreat hoping the demon pay no heed to their trespass
its an unspoken never to tread this area as it rumor to house a powerful swordsman named the the sword demon
the blind man watched them as they made a quick retreat and breath out in relief, he turn and follow after Damien
meanwhile Damien basilisk form sway left to right as his body rapidly revert back to his original appearances before passing out
the girl stare at Damien unconscious body with frown, she examined him thoroughly as if searching for something but frown when she couldn't find anything
she stood there in thought for awhile before decide to haul Damien passed out body on her shoulder going deep into the wood he was heading for initially
