The Inheritor

Quinn was too familiar with these eyes, only someone with deep-seated vengeance and hatred could have such intense flaming eyes. He was also there at a particular point of life so Quinn knew very well any action even out of concern could backfire.

So Quinn cautiously raised and moved to Kallis, but before he could grip his shoulder to support him; Kallis abruptly snapped and tears flooded like a broken dam. Quinn swiftly gave him a tight hug and patiently waited in silence.

At times silence can be more soothing than any words. Kallis slowly recovered and mildly pushed Quinn as he calmed down, Quinn also stepped back to give some s.p.a.ce.

Kallis finally broke the suffocating silence; his eye turned normal and strange tranquility replaced the raging crimson eyes.

"Sorry, Brothers everything about my background is a lie. I"m not from Lotus Diving city of Ghost country; No I"m not from Unigux, my birth planet is far stronger and advanced than Unigux…..

Though I don"t know its name, the couple who runs the textile industry isn"t my parents. In fact, they are the bottommost echelon"s subordinate..... of …er…err my Father."

Kallis was literally forced out the word "father" with great difficulty. Quinn instantly figured his friend had a problem with his father but the other message he got was really shocking.

"If the subordinate of the weakest man under his father runs the country"s largest textile industry; then how powerful is his father."

Of course, Quinn was dumb enough to ask it aloud, moreover, he didn"t intend to interrupt his friend.

"Right a very powerful Father *bah*, true that he"s a powerful man but he wasn"t much of a human and even lesser of a father." Kallis started to lament his pitiful life.

"That man imprisoned my Mother for giving birth to a child with a Dark Physique and let my half-siblings torture me; he locked me inside the palace to save his face.

While other kids were spoiled and loved I was toiling within a golden cage constantly bullied and beaten by my half-siblings. That man even chained me for retaliating the ones who bullied me and starved me for weeks...…."

Kallis went on with his tragic tale, even Quinn couldn"t stomach that much suffering and cruelty. Kallis father seemed worse than a bloodthirsty beast, after all even a vicious beast wouldn"t bite its own cub.

"I neither know my mother"s name nor that tyrant"s name; being orphan in spite of living with all the relative one could fathom under the same roof is too pathetic.

After bearing those inhumane tormenting for years my misery still didn"t end, finally, my nameless loveable mother voluntarily took up treacherous endeavor in exchange for my freedom. *SIGH*

My mother was discarded and sent depths of h.e.l.l while her son was banished to a third-tier world by her own husband, *huh* it does have a ring to it right?"

Kallis raised his head and despondently asked his friends; none of them recovered from the shock so Kallis didn"t get any response.

"This half year was the happiest period in my life, I really feel blessed to have such brotherhood with you guys. But please stay away from me, I lost to happiness and pleasure that I even nearly forgot the blood debt.

Hahaha….. I live to kill that beast of a father, yes, KILL, KILL, I"ll give him a horrible death... That Tyrant monster would regret ever giving birth to such a kid. Hahahh. "

Kallis was shouting like a raged beast with crimson eyes while clenching his tiny arms tightly.

*****

The old man was silently watching the entire event without batting his eyes, though he has lived a long life he never heard such a tyrant or inhumane person.

Though he felt sorry for the kid, the old man didn"t have any thoughts of helping him. If he wasn"t crippled he might have stood up for Kallis and even knocked his old man"s door for bringing justice to this pitiable kid.

After the accident, he was maintaining his feeble existence with great difficulty, not that he regretted his sacrifice.

****

While Kallis was cursing and swearing a vague black circle silently crept on to his forehead; the black circle stopped exactly at Glabella and slowly it materialized.

Everyone was lost in the thought, so none of them notice that unclear symbol even that old guy missed that mark.

The Black Circular Mark sent sudden outburst black fog from Kallis"s forehead; while the Black Circular Mark disintegrated into black pigment and merged with Kallis.

The moment the Black Circular Mark disintegrated Kallis"s conscious slipped and he went into deep slumber.

The Black fog rapidly spread in all direction like a plague. The Black fog turned everything it touched grey ash, it was complete obliteration and silent annihilation.

Strangely the black fog couldn"t damage any animate objects. Except for the uncooked eggs and the student"s, everything was turned into grey ash; from the iron cookware to st.u.r.dy rocks and even the Jade Pearl they collected with great difficulty crumbled into ashes.

Since the fog entirely surrounded them Quinn and his friends were completely blinded and the cave was originally too silent, to begin with so Quinn and his friend went thru absolute terror.

Only their school uniform was resisting the corrosive Black Fog but still, it was putting a feeble fight; the corrosive black fog was breaking the Spirit Dress slowly fiber by fiber.

As the Black fog was devouring everything in the surrounding; the Black Circular Mark which disintegrated into black pigment started to cover his entire body and slowly turned his skin"s shade.

Kallis"s skin became darker and darker by seconds; after a few minutes, it finally stopped his skin wasn"t chocolate brown skin like Boris instead it was darker than the charcoal and deeper than the starry sky.

Quinn was silently witnessing everything happening to Kallis; not that he wasn"t willing to help. Though the Black Fog didn"t harm them it somehow managed to imprison them, they were completely bound. Quinn couldn"t even move his figure much less save his friend.

"Elgar any brilliant ideas?"

Elgar was his only hope, after all, Elgar had a very special origin. So Quinn was expecting some miracle from the Zenith Box, but he was bound to be disappointed.

[Boss, this black fog is something very dangerous. It seems to be evolving with seconds and it"s power"s also increasing exponentially. Zenith Box is completely sealed so I really don"t have any escape plans. But if you die I"ll be able to pull your soul into Zenith box, later we could resurrect by reconstructing a new body.]

"Thanks for nothing."

Quinn rolled his eyes hearing Elgar"s awesome backup plan while his brain ran like a supercomputer finding solution. Suddenly his eyes brightened, he thought of the person sitting outside.

"Elgar can you reach out to that Blind Old man, he"s surely a powerhouse so that old guy might help us."
