Chapter 115: Third ability

3rd person view

"So you 3 hired assassins to eliminate our enemies? Which may or may not include your own siblings?!" The king shouted at his 3 children

In the throne room was him, his 3 children, his uncle, Anthony Magus and professor Williams

"Calm down there, Cyrus" Anthony reasoned "We were on the verge of civil war, they were doing it for your benefit"

"I'm sorry, uncle, it's just...they were also my children that were killed, I wish that they would at least consult me first" the king rubbed his head

"Well you wouldn't have allowed it and it would have escalated to a civil war" Anthony shook his head "Though just who exactly did you 3 hired? Dozens of the opposition's leaders died in a span of a few days"

"We hired Perseus" Castor answered nervously "He started his mission the moment returned from the vampire kingdom and came back into school "

"Was he the only one you hired?" the king asked

"Well not really, we were about to recruit a few more, but...he eliminated all of the opposition's leader before we could" Castor responded

"To think that he can do that while passing his exams, he really isn't that simple" Anthony shook his head

"He kept his top scores too," Professor Williams added "Despite not coming to school for the past week, he caught up and surpasses most of our students while he was at it"

"One lone student has eliminated so many, and he did it while keeping to himself at school, if the military were to hear about this, they would waste no material trying to eliminate him" the king shook his head "But since he did it to keep the peace of the kingdom, I shall just keep it in this room"

"Is Balor's whereabout still unknown?" Eleanor asked

"I still do not know why you still want to look for him despite finding out that him and a few mercenaries abducted your friend's family" The king sighs "But we currently do not know his whereabout, we would love to interrogate him ourselves, but..."

"And was his family really eliminated?" Eleanor asked

"Yes, but there were a few survivors, professor Steel and I interrogated them, they said that they were attacked by hooded figure whom we assumed to be Perseus and his bond, but the line they spoke, that at least does not sound like what Perseus would say" Professor Williams answered "Something along the lines of 'We work in the dark to serve the light, we are the assassins'."

"That really doesn't sound like something he would say, unless..." A thought then popped into Anthony's head "He is in an organization of assassins, he asked for their help in order to make the killing go much more smoother and stealthier, but he's not the type to work with others, would you think so Eleanor?"

"No headmaster" she shook her head

"Then it just means that him and his bonds are that strong, though it is to be expected, he bonded with both a dragon and a phoenix" Professor Williams nodded

"Wait, hold up, he got a phoenix? Why haven't I heard of this?" Castor asked

"Oh his phoenix is Diana, the one disguised as a black bird on his shoulder, not just that, she's also a mutant phoenix" Charlotte answered "I think we forgot to tell you since you barely just come back from your search of a phoenix settlement"

"I'm so jealous!" Castor then threw a tantrum as the door to the throne room then burst open.

The intruder is a familiar green haired man, 3 swords on his wait and a scar on one eye.

"Crap, how did I get lost again?" he rubbed his head

1st person view

I was in Neelofar, wearing a suit preparing for my dance with Cordelia. I then got a call from Eleanor.

"So what's up?"

"Where's Balor?" she asked

"How would I know?"

"When Albert and Aenon woke up, no one was alive on the scene and Balor, the mastermind and you were gone, it's kind of obvious" She answered

"Well he's still alive, but barely, I'll return him soon if you want, or I can just finish him"

"Were you the one that attacked his family?"

"...No"

"Don't lie, tell me the truth"

"Well yeah"

"Why?! They weren't on our list! They were innocent!"

"Balor threatened me using my family, Eleanor, if they hadn't move here, they would have also be abducted, and if that event were to ever happen...me and my bonds will do whatever we have to in order to find them, I just did to him what he tried to do against my family"

"You're no better than terrorists, you hypocrite!" she shouted as she hang up the call

-Wow, harsh, but I lost my family once, and I'm not ever going to go through that ever again, anyone that threaten my family's lives will have to first go through me. Let's hope that this will convey my message to everyone else-

-Yeah, and we left a few survivors too, maybe we should've just killed all of them- Ace added

-Well like the princess said, they were mostly innocent, we just needed to send out our message- Siege replied -We should let him go back tomorrow and not tell him about what we did, our message will hit him harder and it will spread faster-

-It's kinda scary that you guys can know my thoughts so well-

-We got your memories, and we spend a lot of our time together, knowing these things are our job- Diana responded

-Your time as an orphan, when you found your new family, the betrayal you've experienced, we know it all- Dabria added

-Though none of us have your 3rd ability, I'm quite jealous- Damon said -Though 'Ferocity' isn't that bad on me-

-Well my 3rd ability is unique, not even people from my past life know. It's why I'm confident most of the time, let's hope that we can eliminate all the threats this world have, I want to retire young-

My family joined joined in the celebration, Damon was accompanied by Diana in her human form.

"Is there a reason why the 3rd princess is avoiding you today?" Cordelia asked

"Of course there is, I abducted her bodyguard and killed a few of his family members"

"Too much honesty can be a bad thing you know" she chuckled

"Is there a reason why people are giving me glares?"

"Told you, I have many suitors, they are really annoying" she rolled her eyes

"Well I don't think that anyone except me embarrassed themselves the moment they met you"

"Well some does, though they didn't make me laugh like you did, your parents are really looking forward to this, aren't they?"

I caught my parents betting money while looking at our direction, they turned away after they saw me look at them.

-They are betting on whether you 2 will make it official that you're finally going to be a couple tonight, I'm siding with your mom, you're too much of a wimp- Dabria commented

-I'm only 13! You guys are rushing it a bit-

-So you're still going to claim to be just friends, despite kissing each other a couple of times?-

Cordelia then kissed me out of the blue, the suitors' eyes now flared up even more.

"Why did you do that?"

"I feel like you were cheating on me with another woman, so I had to take the lead" she winked

"You really are not planning on making my life any easier" I sigh
