New Route {2}

In the hall of Zerak Palace.

The King Velin III's POV.

I was sitting uncomfortably on the throne. I was hearing the report that my messenger was whispering into my ears. Each sentence made me angrier and made me lose my temper at a fervent pace. I listened to the event that had happened at the Talent awakening ceremony in the court yesterday and a satan's child awakened the rarest, strongest magic in the world and killed many people including my wife…

I'm pissed off by it, I stood up from my seat, "That son of a bitch, he killed my wife and mother of my two children while I'm still alive, he does have a great arrogance in his head which I'll rip them into pieces. A mere 7-year-old dark magi had this audacity to strike the royal family of Velinia? I'll show him what's the true power of this king and his family?!"

I was covered in a fierce magical aura that emanated all over the entire hall, creating an immense pressure wall among the aristocrats, pushing them to kneel on the ground with their heads kowtowing the floor. That strength alone made the aristocrats submissive against his order and all of them panicked while experiencing 0.5/10 of my strength.

"M-my king, please have some mercy on us. I know you're upset on behalf of our beloved queen's death. Please remain calm, do reflect that boy is a 'Dark Magi' yet he's able to such destructive low spells after he sucked out the whole mana of the pool of the chosen path. He also said he welcomes any challenges from Your Highness. From his ruthlessness and his methods, he's certainly not a child but a well-experienced man."

I took a deep breath. He's certainly right. I'm fighting against a black bull who will plunder when he has the colour red in his eyes. "I know. First, we don't know his name from that Clan or whether he's a direct or indirect descendant of that bloodline. From what I heard, he's a fatherless child born in a normal household to an ordinary woman. I've had vague thoughts about his father's origins. If he's born from a soldier's soul, he wouldn't have this strong Soul Affinity... But to get revenge on my wife… Like what he did.. we'll take what he cares about the most and manipulate him with it and give him a severe blow which he'll never forget.." I laughed. "Let pry out the secret of his father's origin and his mother's past, capture her and make her a coy for the means to land him in a death penalty before he reaches the pinnacle of power while graduating in Winya Kingdom's Xyrus academy…" and "If he's a well-experienced man then we move in the shadow before him with caution, now some of you go to the xyrus academy and spy on this brat on going day so we can know more about him and you use it as strategy to crush my under my foot!"

"YES MY HIGHNESS!" the aristocrats said in unison.

Daris's POV

"Silvia, we've already packed up all our stuff. Now is this the time to say goodbye…" I said while taking up a small bag which lodged with my clothes and stuff were kept. I acted as if I was caring towards like in Daris's memories. I don't view her as my friend but as someone I use in my stead for Daris's original gain.

I saw her slightly crying with biting her lips. She was sad that we were going away from her. I feigned sadness on my face and got near her.

I crossed an arm on her neck and said, "My cute little Silvia, don't cry. It's not like I'm saying goodbye forever but I come to see you again and play with you."

"Who are you calling little? Aren't you also small daris?" She replied by pouting. "I know, I'll also awaken my talent and I'll come to xyrus academy by myself!" 

"We'll see." I acted out a naughty smile.

"Son, I'm ready with luggage." My mom called out. She got her stuff in a large trunk. The caravan was ready with our stuff put in it by the driver. Today we were his customers, he already knew me labelled as a satan's child but it didn't matter to him, he only cared about the money that came from us. He doesn't have a family, and with his family profession, he needs this money to feed himself.

"Daris, you son of whore have you come from the captive for Queen Velissa?" a woman came from the Neighborhood with an ugly expression on her face.

"Has he come from those strong guards?"

"This bastard killed my son!"

"He's going away from this place? No way we can't let them"

"Daris, where's my father sain?" Igil came before us, he was also shocked upon seeing us reunited here. He didn't expect this before. He was angry at us.

"I killed him." I coldly looked at him with a fierce gaze. I didn't forget what he did to me and mother before.

"WHAT?!" all of them shocked.

"B-but how?" Igil was in utter disbelief.

"This is how!" I showed them my plam with a swirling black red fume which kept wriggling around my arms.

"B-black Magic-c?" They looked at me now with great fear from their expressions.

There was a tear coming down from my mother's eye which I didn't see because I was focused on these villagers.

"How could it be?"

"He's a mage now, N-no a dark magi?!"

"He'll be the strongest mage ever and also he's a satan's child?!"

 "No matter what magic he has that doesn't clear the crime he did to my child. He's still a demonic murderer?!"

[Enough] I roared at them with the demonic voice of cingar.

I was equipped with a black gauntlet with a sharp finger and I charged in front of igil. He going to block the attack with his arms. I ran behind him and dug into his back. I saw his back torn down into a bloody scar.

"YOU FUCKING BRAT?!"

He howled like a pained wolf who got injured bloody. I dug my claws further into his body, intensifying his pain. The streams of blood were coming from dripping from his flesh.

"If anyone wants the same treatment then let us go away from this place?!" I exclaimed.

"NO!" they backed down in fear.

My mom and Silvia were shocked by my onslaught.

I grabbed back hand of igil pressed his back. "Mom, go inside right now!"

My mom entered the caravan. Just returned backwards to the caravan, I sliced his neck.

"AAh" he fell onto the ground and we left.
