Blood was everywhere. The immense aura of Shinsetsu dissipated as the aura of a pure soul emerged to overpower the grey and turn the tide against the black.
Kyra looked at the horrifying scenery of the works of her own mother as she thought," No! No! How could she...do something..." She gulped as she felt a pain in her stomach.
She looked down, opened her mouth, and vomited; it was the only thing she could do in a situation like this.
She stopped vomiting. She wiped her cheeks and started to tear up. Her tears touched the ground of the area. Each tear had more despair and hatred.
" Just... JUST DIE ALREADY!" She punched herself as she said this. She punched many times; one punch broke her tooth. Her nose started to bleed, her face started to swell up, but she didn't stop.
With each punch, her hatred towards herself increased," Die...Die...DIE!" An explosion of energy came out of her body as she looked at the horrifying mess that she had created.
She saw a person stabbed by a spear through his lower jaw to his brain. She saw the surroundings, blood everywhere, body parts, and a brain still intact.
Her face was full of despair, like she had no expression; her tears had dried as she stood up with a blood-stained body.
She saw all the people still praying for her. Weird that they are praying for a murderer, or that is what Kyra thinks.
" Kyra!" Kyra's eyes widened. This voice was similar to someone's. She slowly turned back, her heart pounding slowly as she realized who it was.
She turned back to see Indhra in front of her, far from her, around 2 meters. His face was not in shock; this wasn't shocking to him, since he knows Shinsetsu pretty well.
Kyra's face turned blank as she saw Indhra in his prisoner clothes.
"I..." Kyra hugs him while crying and sobbing. " I was... scared that you would die!"
" Uhh," Indhra smiled as he kept his hand on Kyra's head while hugging her back," Good to see you again. Everything's ok now as I returned." Kyra squeezes him, too hard," Hey, stop now, it hurts!" Kyra backed off with a smile, with tears.
" Ahh, so she is your daughter whom you talk so much about... HOLLY DAMN SHIT, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED HERE?" Shido's face was in shock after seeing so much blood.
" Well, did you do this, Kyra?" Aldred asked with a smile," If you did, then they would have deserved it."
Kyra smiled after seeing Aldred safe.
Indhra looked back at Shido," Hey, you were saying you would contact your teammates."
Shido looked at him with a calm face," Already do..." He thought in his mind after sensing something," What the... This mana, it is Robert's." His face turned serious as he looked back.
" Is something wrong?" Asked Aldred with curiosity as he could not understand what was going on. " Nothing of our concern, at least for now. Let us hope that Menchent sends their troops to rescue us."
Kyra looked confused," Wait, Menchent, the kingdom that is at war with Taka."
Aldred stood beside her and nodded, confirming her doubt.
Shido looked at Kyra," Well, I am actually a spy who Menchent sent to spy on Lemoyne, but then I fought a God Armor and realized I should just give in to Taka and be a spy here. Well, can we discuss this shit somewhere else than this bloody room?"

" So, Kara, would you stay with us from now on?" Asked Hidoi with a blushing red face while walking on a street behind 47. Hidoi wanted to spend time with this Kara girl; to be clear, he was in love with her the moment they met.
Kara looked at Hidoi, who was trying to hide his face. With a serious look, she turned back to look at 47," Well, it seems like I don't have a chance, thanks for inviting."
Hidoi was blushing hard. A smile wore on his red face as he still tried to hide his face from his crush. Kara, while looking at this kid's innocence, had no other option left but to just smile. She knew that Hidoi was in love with her; it is pretty obvious.
" 47! Can we go to the hot dog stand that we went to long ago? Do you remember?" Hidoi shouted at 47 with glowing eyes.
" The most I remember is your crybaby face that you made that day." Said 47 calmly without a posture change.
Kara still couldn't get this guy. " First of all, why is he wearing that weird mask all the time?" Kara asked herself in her mind. And that, too, it felt like he had zero human emotions. She also couldn't sense any mana inside him.
" Are you wondering why I don't have any mana?" Asked 47 while looking back through his one eye, which was revealed by the mask.
Kara gasped for a second," How did you?" 47 smiled, which could be felt through his mask. His eye changed a bit, turning a bit red.
" My eyes are special; I can sense anyone's mana if it is trying to enter my body. And also I can hide my Mana with this eye, so you can say I am a bit special."
This was not his only special eye; he had many. He changes them periodically on his will.
Kara looked to her left as 47 took a left to cross the road.
" Hidoi!" Kara shouted while smiling," wanna race? Who will reach the opposite path first?"
Hidoi looked confused as he saw Kara running and stopping in the middle of the road," Hey!" Hidoi blinked as she kept talking, but it abruptly ended.
Hidoi wore a smile on his face. He opened his eyes and just saw blood on the road.
His smile started to fade away as he saw a black smoke covering his surroundings. The only things that could be seen were the road, blood, and shocked Hidoi.
" Huh!" A sound came from his mouth as he saw the death of Kyra.
Moments later, smoke accumulated in front of him and formed a humanoid creature.
" You cannot save her!" A voice came from the smoke just when Hidoi took the smoke seriously," You cannot save me!" The smoke took the form of Kara.
Hidoi had no idea what was going on. Was this an illusion? Hidoi thought in his mind.
" No!" He realized quickly and started to grunt. He immediately pulled his arm to punch himself in the face," WAKE UP!" Kara shouted while looking at Hidoi.
" Fuck me!" Hidoi woke up from the bed, huffing. His heart was in turmoil. He quickly kept his hand on his chest and closed his eyes while taking deep breaths to calm his body and especially his heart.
He opened his eyes, which looked tired if they had seen a lot. He pulled his hand up to check on it. The scar was luminous, the pattern was successful.
" Kara!" He thought in his mind, the tiredness in his eyes fading away," Whatever you are planning, I don't care, I will always save you!" He kept his hand in front of his right eye, clenching his fist, "I swear on myself!"
THE END
