The armored guy could not approach me any further. It seems that the black aura is also acting as a barrier to defend me from any attack. As the armored guy started hitting the barrier with his sword, I simply took a step forward. Just like when I had mana inside of me, I feel the power inside of me so I tried to control it just like how I did with magic. I compressed some of the dark aurae and turned them into them into 20 black spears floating 10 centimeters above my head. I pointed at the armored guy and my spears flew straight at him.
"So slow and weak!" he said arrogantly why deflecting and cutting all of my spears that were attacking him one or two at a time.
My spears turned back to being dark aurae and just started floating in the air near the armored guy.
"I'm sorry if my attacks were slow and weak. I'll make sure that the next one will at least damage you even if it is just a little."
"Gu-Er! above you!" Lihaybu warned the armored guy
I averted my eyes to look at Lihaybu "Shut up" I said with a normal angry voice
Gu-Er looked above to see another spear that was directly on its way to attack him. "I told you it was weak and slow right!?" He bent his knees and lowered his right arm. He was planning on countering my spear with the tip of his sword to cut it. As soon as Gu-Er jumped, he quickly raised his sword and when the two weapons made contact with each other, My dark spear turned back to being a dark aura. He did not notice but he was already surrounded by my dark aurae. The foggy like black smoke quickly attached itself to Gu-Er, restraining his every movement. As he was floating in the air, restricted, I pulled him with just a sign of my hand.
After telling Lihaybu to shut up, I quickly raised my left hand and shot a beam of dark aurae from my palm towards her. Lihaybu created a barrier to protect her and the ones beside her but it was futile. Her barrier got destroyed in an instant and she was hit by my attack that then sent her flying.
"Lihaybu!" The green-haired woman screamed. She ran towards Lihaybu and put her hands together while its palms were facing Lihaybu. "She's turning black!" She shouted.
Another gorgeous woman appeared and she was beside Lihaybu. The woman had a Tiara on her white hair while wearing a golden dress. Aside from her many others started appearing above us.
"You demonic child! be prepared to face your penalty!" the old man with a monocle madly said
"keep silent Cloras" the woman covered in the cloak told him
"That person is a Demon, Ruko. So why should I just stay silent?" Cloras rebutted
"That child is our responsibility. He did not possess any ill intent before we called him here" The boy with a book tried to explain
"Seems like you also understand our faults, Talinza" Ruko glanced at Talinza the one holding a book
"Yes" Talinza agreed and nodded
"What are you two talking about"? Cloras asked
Talinza and Ruko walked forward heading straight towards me without answering Cloras' question. My attention moved from Gu-Er to Talinza and Ruko. I was just staring at them blankly as they continue to advance. Some of the dark aurae touched their clothes which made holes in them but the two didn't seem to care. They arrived at the point where Gu-Er was hitting my barrier. They tried to push through while not making any progress. Ruko and Talinza pursued to break through my barrier and even though it is little, there was progress. Their suffering from the pain caused by my dark aurae can be clearly seen on their burdened faces and hurting voices. Their clothes keep getting torn little at a time by my violent aurae.
As I keep watching Ruko and Talinza with my emotionless face, a tear escaped from my eye and then dropped from my chin. Soon after, the dark aurae left the two gods alone and a path was made that goes directly to me. The two were already quite weakened but they continued walking with a dignified unyielding presence against my tainted power.
The two gods hugged me with both of their arms and eyes close. My legs became weak like noodles that can be bent easily. Ruko and Talinza felt my weight getting heavier so they gently helped me to be on my knees while my butt was touching the hills of my feet.
"Dear Child we are very sorry for causing you all this pain" Ruko apologized
"We never meant to be boastful and arrogant but we were just happy that all of our children were given another chance to live. we became too proud of ourselves and forgot about your feelings." Talinza explained.
a stream of tears was visible on my face as I was listening to the two gods. As I was only sitting still in my position, I was suddenly hit by a painless ray of light which was very warm like a mother's hug, love, and care. I floated in the air as if being picked up by the ray of light.
As I was floating in the air, everyone's eyes were looking at me with amazement.
"It's great mother... it is the great mother" the gods were talking about a great mother but I could not hear them. I can only see them quite flustered but inside the ray of light, sounds cannot be heard... except for one.
"Dear Child, I'm sorry..." As Great Mother was speaking, her huge figure with her arms wide open ready to embrace me started appearing from a foggy atmosphere in front of me. I slowly going forward but my vision started getting blur until the point where nothing was longer visible...

I put on my blue shirt and told my father "let's go?" with a cheerful voice. A week has passed since then. I don't remember much about what happened after The Great Mother appeared but the feelings I got from her were very warm. It was as if I was being healed, and those two gods; Ruko and Talinza... I will never forget them.
I look up to the sky and raised my fist "I won't lose! I will be changing the course of life!"
