"Huh? What is happening? who are you?..."
"Kukukuku you don't have to know that.."
He said while beheading the woman next to him and the blood flowed everywhere.
Everyone in the room just could not move in fright while the house got covered in flames so no one could escape. Two shadows then materialized before the man in the hood and swung they're knives at him to make the massacre come to an end but before contact it was melted by a scorching heat and a flame no Bigger than a finger went through both shadows and they died in an instant and they're heart was burned to ashes.
By the current of air that came afterwards the hood on the man blew back and what I saw shocked me even more.. "Alex? WTF ALEX!!!!!!?????? WHAT THE HE'LL DO YOU THINK YOU'RE DOING? ?????.."
"well that was unfortunate you shouldn't have seen me but ooh well you were going to know sooner or later". Alex moved his hand and everyone except me was burned to ashes.. the strength in my legs failed me and I slump down while wailing "why ??why??" Tears stream down my face and I couldn't believe that Alex my best friend did something like this
"Hahahahahahahhaha oh my God your fucking face is so funny I want to watch it all day long hahahahah well I had to kill them all because they saw my face and unfortunately you did to". Alex said with a horrifying smirk on his face "well your family was on my list too soo you'd die eventually, still it was fun playing around with you hehehehe... goodb- wait a moment I think I'll make it more fun... wait here for a moment and you'll see something very interesting..." and with those words he disappeared.
A few seconds later he reappeared with a middle aged woman, an old man and a little girl. I recognize them immediately as my family. My sister Lily, my mom Geria and my grandpa Thomas. "STOP I'LL DO ANYTHING SO PLEASE LET THEM GO!!!!!!!!!!"
"HAHAHAHAHAHAHA Your hilarious I knew I should have done this hehehehe now cry and beg, beg for mercy and they might get to live for now hehehehe". with that he raised the temperature and Lily screams on top of her lungs "AAAAHHHHHHHHHH"
"NOOOOO STOOOOPPP AHHHHHH! !!!!" and with that I charge Alex but to no avail and then the only thing I see is Alex's smirk before everything becomes dark......
After who knows how long I realize everything is white But i don't want to die I don't want to die at least not before I Kill that Bastard "AAAAHHHHHHHHHH I'M NOT READY TO DIE!!!!!!!!!!" And suddenly I can move and there is something pitch black revolving around me and that really fast. "What is this?" I try to move and to my surprise it moves according to me and it's like it moves to my will. And why am I so calm? I just saw my family die. It's like nothing ever happened and I can think much clearer. It's like nothing can affect me anymore as long as I stay around it.
After focusing on trying to look around for a bit the, what looks like to be a black mist, suddenly lessens and what I see is not a beautiful view, but a view of blood and aches but somehow I'm not panicking and I am way to calm and that's not all what also surprises me was that I felt like my senses had sharpened quit much and I could see any detail I wanted very clear.
I could even see all the details of a fly that was flying around, the clear pointy wings, the six eyes and it's hairy feet, I could see them all. "So this is magic huh?" "Well now I got a chance to kill that Bastard but I don't really care that much right now *shight* I should at least avenge them right?" "Well first things first I have to train my magical power to be his match". "Hhmmmm right I'll go and register to the magic academy then". After thinking for a bit I sprint away to the next town (and of course I'm much faster than before)
Before coming to the magic academy I realize something " fuck I actually forgot about my bloody and torn clothing and the black energy is still around me". Better be at least normal when I arrive so I concentrate and try to think of the darkness to dissipate and good it works but when it goes away all the emotions that were gone hit me like I hit a wall and I fall down while crying.
After about 2 hours of crying and mourning I go to a nearby lake and jump naked in it leaving my clothing and emotions on shore to get rid of all the blood. Of course when I come to get them and clean them they're gone "of course it's like that. Why don't I have any luck?" "Meen alright I'll just hunt some monsters and make some". Soon after I see a green bear that's at least 4 meters, I think it's a rank 2 magical beast. Magical beasts are beasts that are stronger than normal beasts and have something like a magical core, so you would have to be a mage or a mercenary to penetrate it's hard skin and dodge its enhanced claws and jaw. A magical core is something a mage can use to strengthen their magical power. This is a greenwind bear. A greenwind bear can can become really big, but they gain speed and not strength so it's not that high in rank. I think this bear is chewing on something...
When I realize what it is I gape and then jump it " You Bastard give me back my clothes"!! I punch it and *crack* it flies away before hitting a nearby tree and dropping dead with its chest caved in after one hit "My God I'm OP" but then I thought if I'm this op after the black mist then how op is the black mist? I should try and get a hold of that black energy before going to the academy or at least Give it a try.
With that I sit down and take a deep breath and then breath out slowly and focus on my new energy. I do this a couple of times and after that the dark mist begins to spread again and I get devoid of all emotions once again. Next I try to move it to hit a tree and to my surprise it hits the tree but when it dissipates there was nothing left of the tree were the darkness hit it.
My face turns to one of complete disbelief and my eyes bulge out "holy shit I'm actually this powerful hehehehe just you wait Alex I'm going to rip your heart out and fucking eat it hahahahaha" *cough cough* hmm anyway I try to shape my darkness a bit and I can basically shape it into anything I want "hhmmmm this'll be really convenient and ohhhh I can just shape it to be like a magician robe and use that as clothes". "Hahahahhaa I'm a genius and I think I should stop talking to myself it's getting pretty weird". Alright I'm all ready "let's go to the academy!!".
