When Kronos Leaves the City

'Where am I?'

Orion spoke as he opened his eyes in a forest. Looking at his body, he looked like a 10-year-old boy. And his surroundings seemed familiar to him from somewhere.

Orion searched for something that made sense, but there was nothing around him except trees. He was all alone, just like before.

Suddenly Orion felt he had to walk. Something was calling him. He took a step. He aged 1 month. He took 1 more step. He grew a little older.

That's how Orion reached the age of 15. But he didn't know what to say to what he saw in front of him.

"Are you sure we should do this, Mine? This....... It's not a good thing."

Hearing what her husband was saying, she frowned and looked at him, there was a baby in his arms and the baby was crying non-stop. But he didn't seem to care.

"We have no choice, Eddie! I don't know what that man is doing with Yama, but Yama is not paying attention here! If the 3 of us are left here, he'll sense it! Our child has more Spirit Energy than both of us! We must leave him and escape from the Underground Forest while we can!"

Orion heard everything they said. Slowly he came into her and Adam's line of sight. They were both surprised to see someone walking towards them like that. Eddie spoke. He was frowning.

"Who are you? "

Orion paid him no mind and started to look around more carefully. The more he looked at the strange forest around him, the more he realized something.

"So this was the Underground Forest. And you...."

This time the woman frowned too. For some reason, this boy looked familiar to her and she was suspicious. After all, time worked strangely in Yama's Forest. Very strange.

Orion locked his gaze on Eddie and Mine. Eddie and Mine trembled under his gaze. They were normal people. How could they not tremble under Orion's aura?

"Wh-who are you?"

When Eddie repeated it once more, Orion didn't speak again. Instead, he reached for the baby in Mine's hand and pointed at it with his finger.

Eddie and Mine were shocked. It seemed that this child was their child grown up. They could understand some things now, even though they had no sanity in the underworld.

"Why?"

Eddie and Mine could sense the dangerous feeling coming from Orion. That terrifying aura surrounded them.

"Why did you leave me?"

Orion was trying hard not to cry. How should he feel that his parents wanted to leave him in front of his eyes? Scared? Sad? No! In his body, the Yama Energy was in full swing and the feeling of death was spreading throughout the forest. He was the real King in the underworld.

But Eddie and Mine looked at Orion with cold eyes.

"Didn't you hear the answer just now? What are you still asking about? We are people who will do anything to get out of here! You are an anomaly! You were never supposed to be born!!! Did you expect us to love you and raise you in a place like this?!?"

Orion was surprised by Mine's angry outburst.

"Aren't you afraid of me?"

Eddie laughed.

"We're already dead people, what can you do to us?"

You might be reading a stolen copy. Visit Royal Road for the authentic version.

Orion shook his head from side to side and gathered the Yama energy in one hand. His eyes were in Red-Black energy. But he could see the confused expressions on Eddie and Mine's faces.

"Then why are you afraid of Yama? After all, you should be dead, right?"

Eddie and Mine took two steps back as Orion scattered some of the Yama Energy in his hand.

"So what's keeping you here?"

Orion's eyes sharpened and he raised his hand full of Patch Energy to the sky. At the same moment, the sky was covered with Patch Energy. Eddie and Mine were speechless.

"W-that's impossible! Only Yama, the God of the Underworld, can have that kind of control! You're not supposed to have that kind of control!"

The original power of Yama Energy was to destroy souls. So when Yama created this energy, he became the head of the underworld and took control of the Reincarnation cycle. But only one person had ever escaped from his custody and brought souls into the real world. Yama hated Uranus for years because of this incident, but Yama could not touch the power of the Universe. If it weren't for the Universe's ban, he would have gone out and killed all the Kingslayers alive.

But now the Yama knew nothing and Orion painted the sky with the horror of Black and Red.

"That's why I have to thank you, for leaving me for 10 years and keeping me alive with Yama Energy.... That is why I am now King of the Underworld."

Orion's eyes lit up and the white Light of Kronos and the Red Black Light of Orion met in the middle. But no one was hurt. Both lights only showed that they were Kings and Lena came out of meditation. The aura of Orion and Kronos could not harm her as she had protected the city center with her aura.

Orion dropped the Light from the sky on his family. Just as the Patch Energy was about to hit Mine and Eddie, Orion saw the look of disgust on Mine's face.

"I wish I'd never given birth to you....."

***

One after another, the sound of cracking shook the city. Kronos and Orion had become Kings.

Alvar and Reina were calm as they watched this scene. But soon Alvar laughed.

"Don't you think about becoming a King, Reina? At this rate, they will overtake us."

Reina was not laughing. He was born in a place in his life where he didn't need to be King. He was a genius, but he just hid his potential and was lazy. He wasn't rubbish. He was just too lazy to show that he was a genius.

"You forget where I come from, Alvar. Do you think anyone from there needs to be King?"

Alvar laughed again. Reina's life was also very sad, but Alvar could laugh at anything. He could not be angry or sad about anything. He had lived this way. He was born this way and trained this way.

"What about you, Alvar? Why don't you become the Buddha King? Aren't you the Great Monk?"

Reina asked sarcastically, but it came at a time when Alvar was rarely serious. An aura began to emanate from Alvar's body that had not been emitted until now.

"Me being the Buddha King is like Fury being the Legion King. Fury needs the approval of the Legions to become the Legion King. Mine is much different. In this game the Universe is playing, what I have to do to become the Buddha King is not suitable for the Monks."

"I must kill the current Buddha King."

Alvar's words were final and Reina said no more.

Meanwhile, Sarah and Zaheer were looking at the light. Sarah was still not a King or a Lord, but she could now go on campaigns. At the same time, she and Zaheer had become very close and they were always joking. Even though they enjoyed every second, Sarah had already learned the art of the Purple Sunflower. But she was still at the beginning of the Orange Lightning.

"They became Kings too. It's like we are destined to be Kings in the Skylands."

Boyd put his arm around Sarah's shoulder and spoke. By this time Boyd and Sarah had also become very close friends, but Zaheer and Sarah were still closer. Boyd was their second best friend. This didn't upset Boyd that much. He still had Raiya and other friends.

"You still haven't become King Boyd, what do you plan to be King of? You know there is no such thing as the King of Hell in 7 Dimensions, right?"

Zaheer's words hit Boyd right where they were supposed to hit, and made Boyd look thoughtful.

"I'm working on it."

Zaheer said nothing. He had no intention of becoming a King. Because he knew he could not be King. Even though there were several Kings in Red Lightning City, Zaheer still knew how hard it was to become a King. If he was destined to be King, he would be King when the time came.

Even if Sarah had no way to become King, she could still become the Lady of Archery. She still had a chance.

Raiya was nowhere near them. He had made incredible progress in the past year and had entered the Peak of the Orange Lightning without the Guardian of the Body Path. It seemed that the training Ul had given him had saved the increase in power that the Protectorate would bring for later.

Right now, Raiya is doing push-ups with one finger. This was not for show. It was to increase Raiya's grip strength. He was doing push-ups with all his fingers. Then he did push-ups without using his arms to strengthen his legs. For his arms, Raiya had a few tons of stuff. He could already be a Senior with his strength, but as if he didn't have time for that, Ul was working him without even letting him think about it.

Emma, Melony, and Milah were on duty again. Emma was happy to know that Kai was alive, but she couldn't do anything about it now. Kai would only come back if he wanted to.
