Chapter 25: Madness with Power

"I will kill you all! I will not let you live! All of you will be dead right here! Right now!" After what Daisy said, she quickly held a knife that she was holding and when she saw someone about to attack her, she looked at that person with a mad glare and held it's hand with the sword, before killing him.

Another had tried and another, then again, but no one could even lay a finger on her. She was so enraged, to the point that she even slitted the throat of one of the terrorists.

"Did you really think I'd back down just because you are too many for me to face?! Fuck you all!" She cried. "I will make sure that those who killed my family will suffer greatly, did you all hear that?!" She angrily shouted and thrown another knife at Arhin. But just like the first one, someone blocked her.

"Die!" An attacker from the back was about to catch her offguard, when...

"Stop right there!" Another man said, making the attacker stop from his actions. "She is our target here... The king said that we can kill everyone except her." He said making Daisy think that maybe he is the one who did that heinous crime to her family.

"You son of a bitch! I'll fucking kill you!" She shouted and charged towards Xel, making the latter knit his brows. She was about to hit him with her knife, when he flew back, making her stop.

"Excuse me, milady... But why do you have a grudge against me? What did I do wrong?" Xel asked politely.

"Milady my ass... You killed my family! So you need to pay a life for a life!" She said and continued to charge at him, Xel on the other hand, just kept on escaping.

"Believe me or not, I didn't kill your family... I was out here keeping an eye for the Imperial Armies of Dawn!" He explained.

"And you know what my answer is, don't you?!" Daisy asked and kept up with his pace, making him surprised. Daisy charged her with a battle cry, having him no other choice but to use his sword. He draw it and used it to blocked Daisy's attacks. "Your sin is unforgivable!" She said and even though Xel was telling the truth, he knew that Daisy will not listen, knowing that he is an enemy.

"I'm sorry if I have to do this." He said and before Daisy could even keep up with everything... He kicked her, making her flew 3 meters away from him. Daisy groaned in pain as she held his stomach. Xel on the other hand, was now out of sight.

"Tie her up, so she can't fight again." One of the terrorists said and another found a good rope to put into her. Having low power and some bruises, she can barely move. So she just cried silently while praying that someone will come at her aid and help her.

'I'm sorry if I can't do anything mom... Dad... Mailey and Jaimey. I'm such a weakling! I can't even fight barehanded. I can't even be perfect. Might as well be dead.'

Her tears continued to fall as she said those words in her mind. She also thought about her friends and Granger. She thought that maybe they are also dead now, so for what else should she be alive then?

She closed her eyes and didn't care anymore. Even if she felt that her hands are being tied, she didn't budge.

"What a good girl you are... I didn't know Xel can make you silent like that HAHAHA! What did he do? Did he said something to you? Something about... Family?" Arhin whispered the last words to her, making her heart thump fast and her breath being uneven.

She gritted her teeth in anger, but she couldn't open her eyes now. She felt strange as she try to fight something that she doesn't know.

"Wake up." She heard a voice, making her forehead knit in confusion. "Wake up, my chosen one." She again heard and this time. She was feeling a bit assured, like she was at peace. The voice was soothing, calming, and best of all... She felt safe. "Your time starts just now my dear. So don't give up yet." She heard.

"How could I even fight without inspiration? My family are all dead, even my friends... So how could I even fight?" She asked not opening her eyes, for she still can't.

"You'll never know the answer, until you find out yourself my dear." She felt a hand touching her head, making her shiver. She felt like someone just touched her. "I chose you to be my heir, because I know that you will fight until the very end, and you have what it takes to be the chosen one... This is just the beginning of your journey. The real battle begins right here. And if you really want to avenge everyone, fight for them, live for them."

"Easy to say but hard to do."

"I know it sounds impossible for you... But believe me... Your courage will tell you what you really are. It will lead you to your future, and everything you have right now will grow in the future." After hearing what the woman said, she felt something surge through her, and even if she is feeling down. Even if she is about to loose hope... Something bloomed inside her. Something that made her feel powerful.

"From now on, you will be able to use my power. The most powerful magic in Aurora's Land will be yours now, so wield it properly. Use it wisely and don't use it to commit any wrongdoing, because if you do... Something really bad might happen to you and to others." She heard and she felt her breath being unstable. She felt her hand sting and her head spinning a bit. "It might also take long before you master this power, but I know, that one day... You will be able to use it more than I do." She heard and even if she is not feeling well... She tried her best to bow down. Even if she still cannot see where the woman was, she knew it was in front of her because she can hear her.

"Thank you for your kindness... I will never forget about what you said. Now that I have a new inspiration in life, I will keep on moving forward." She explained and thought herself dumb about forgetting something that she must not.

For a moment, she felt like moving around until she was back at where she came from. The Northern Dawn where everyone was piling corpses in the main plaza. She also saw her family's dead bodies being thrown just like that, making her angry.

'Thanks to that someone, I now have what it takes to fight.'

She said to herself and didn't think much. She just shouted in anger, not letting anyone stop her. She let out all her anger by shouting really really loud and even though her tears were falling heavily, she just kept on screaming, until the wind howls with her and the sky changed from a sunny one to a dark and scary scenery.

"To all those who made us suffer!" She shouted and looked at everyone's bodies. "Die!!!" She shouted and it didn't even took a second before a sudden gush of shock made everyone around her fly away and outbalanced. They were all knocked out.
