Lineage

After arriving at the library I see a man in a black coat with a black hat.

It looked as if he didn't want to be seen.

After a while he starts to call some people to another place. I could hear and it seemed to be to gain power crystals for free, without having to be a strong magician.

After a while of trying to convince people, he finally succeeds and starts asking them to follow him.

Is this real? From what i remember the crystals are gained by being very strong, you would not gain them by being just anyone.

Better follow him.

After a while, he arrives in an abandoned street. The houses were all black and with many spider webs. This is certainly not good.

He asks everyone to enter a two-story house.

At the same moment that he closes the door, I start to go in, and as soon as I enter I see no on--

"Look at that, who would you be? You're probably one of the Hestia test boys... You are worth a lot... I wonder how much they offer for someone like you?"

"What do you mean? Why am i all tied up? And who are you? why did you take all those people and bring them to this place?" I start asking.

"Oh, sorry for not introducing myself.... I am Joaquin Marshall. A nobleman of the Marshall family. I am well known person on the black market for organ trafficking. This time of the year is the best! That's when most people come to town and follow anyone without even knowing who they are. Where are your parents, little boy?" When he says this, I remember that my parents were following him. He can't have done that, right?

"No, no, no, no. You didn't kill them, if you even laid a finger on them, I'll kill you!" I started panicking

"Oh, your parents were with me? HAHAHAHAHAHAHA! That makes things more interesting... What's your name?"

"....Light Lioween."

"Lioween? Well, I have two pieces of news for you, a good and bad one. The bad one is that your parents died, the good one is that it was me! Hahahahahahahahaha! How does it feel to be face to face with the murderer of your own family???".

He must be lying, no, no... it's not possible...

"What did you say? I swear i don't get it.

"I killed your parents, don't you understand? You should have seen it. They were like a pigeon coming after me, trying to get this crystal. I remember until now them celebrating because they thought they could have gotten those crystals for free, what assholes. Everyone knows that it is impossible to get something so valuable, especially for free."

This is a lie, it can't be.

At that moment I felt as if I had lost a part of myself. A flashback of everything I have ever experienced with them went through my head and they just disappeared.

"I have to go, i'll come back for you in a minute." Says him

I was so angry, i made a tremendous force and managed to break the ropes.

"Oh, so the little boy is going to fight? Let's see what he can do. Shadow Spell, fourth form: Enemy shadows!

...nothing? The shadow doesn't obey me, how stran--"

While he was talking, I came close and punched him in the face, he flew off until he hit the wall.

"Look what you did, you cracked my wall. Now i'm going to kill you! Shadow Spell, fifth form: Shadow Prison!"

Something starts to hold me back from walking and I see the shadows of objects around me turn into people important to me, including my parents.

"This is all your fault! Why did you let us die? We were your family!."

"No, I didn't mean for that to happen. I just wanted to give you a better life." As i said it, i started crying

"You liar, it's your fault!"

"No, please."

While this is happening Joaquin realizes that i am under the effect of his magic and starts to hit me.

"They are right. It's your fault they died, if you had never come to this town, they would be alive."

Was it really my fault? Should Ii really have refused the offer? I think so, it all happened because of me...

What would happen if i had never fallen down there? Would they be alive?

As i'm thinking, someone breaks through the wall with a thunderous crash and arrives on the scene.

"What a shame, Joaquin. Using your powers to kill a child... Well, that's expected from a Marshall, i shouldn't be surprised."

"Look at that, what we have here... The Lineage of thunder. I expected nothing less from a Lineage. I'm just going to kill this guy and then come back to finish you off."

Joaquin throws me against the wall. I just watch their battle.

"Thunder Spell, eighth form: Blackout!"

He hits Joaquin right in the left arm.

"Aaaah, my arm! I'm going to kill you! Shadow Spell, fourth form: Enemy Shadows!"

After using this spell Joaquin makes his opponent's shadow start attacking his owner, meaning he makes the Lineage fight 2 opponents at the same time.

While the Lineage of Thunder is dodging his shadow, Joaquin appears behind him and starts attacking together with his shadow.

They don't hit any attacks. I don't know for sure, but maybe the shadow has the same abilities as the original person. The shadow is using the thunder blows on him, but none of them hit.

When he tries to hit him... The shadow appears and defends him.

"That's the way I like it! More difficulty!" Lineage speaks when he realizes this.

He appears in front of Joaquin who was just standing there trying to stop the bleeding from his arm, and the shadow appears behind him, using a Lightning Spell, but at that moment Lineage jumps behind Joaquin, causing the shadow to cut him in half.
