17 Aura of slaughter...
Rito started to slaughter the people..
Even if he wanted to resists, He can't do anything.
The rage he made earlier triggered this..
Endo made him remember one of the dark days of his life..
The anger that acculumated over the years that he hide deep in his heart rushed back at him..
All the frustrations that he cannot show back then, He let it all out on Endo..
The red aura take advantage of that and burst out on his body...
*

The red aura has its own conciousness..
It saw Rito's every struggle and saved him from every danger he met...
But everything has its own equivalent exchange, everytime the red aura burst out of his body, the red aura was collecting negative energy.
When he first came in this world, The red aura doesnt have any negative energy...
When Rito felt rage in the Battlefield and burst out the red aura on 500,000 soldiers..
It accumulated a quite amount of negative energy but not enough for Rito to turn insane..
The next one was when he killed the boar in the deep forest, The red aura fused in the stone and collected the energy from the boar..
Every time the red aura collected negative energy, It became more and more uncontrollable..
When Rito was in the "Test of Courage" he already knew how to activate his red aura..
When he push it to the limit, His eyes and hair turned crimson and a strong bloodlust came out of his body... but he was still in control of it..
When Rito snapped earlier, His own negative energy fused on the red aura making it more violent and burst out on his body..
He couldn't control it anymore because of too much negative energy and turned him to what he was now...
All Rito had in mind was to kill..
Anyone he saw...
Their heads will flew out..
He was still concious, so he knew what's happening..
But he can't stop because of the negative energy...
The negative energy was growing big that he didn't recognize what's happening anymore..

The people in the main hall was panicking..
They don't even know who was doing this..
They only felt a gust of wind and the next moment they know was heads flying all over..
They started to run but no one can escape from the unknown enemy..
They were all helpless..
The man with a scar on his left cheek and a mole on the right was shaking, he even wet his pants and started to crawl towards the exit...
Before he even get out, He saw a young man wearing a red robe..
sitting in front smiling...
Before he can even react, He suddenly flew up while rolling..
He thought the young man just throw him away..
While rolling in the air, He saw his body still crawling on the ground without a head...
He was shocked at he saw, but the next thing he knew was his vision become dark....

The remaining people felt helpless, They just sat on the ground and wait for their deaths..
Rito on the other hand, still continue his slaughter...
When he was about to come to the other side..
A loud sighed sounded in the air...
When Rito heard it, he stopped moving...
He tried to felt what it was...
When the sighed didn't continue, He was about to kill all the remaining people when a voice sounded in the air again..
"It looks like I was wrong, It was still too early for you...." then the voice sighed again..

An old man suddenly appeared in front of him...
The old man had a cloak on but Rito can still see his face..
He had a beard all the way to his chest and a deep scar on his left eye..
This is the old man he met at the alley on earth...
When Rito saw him, He didn't have any reaction..
All he wanted was to kill so when the old man appeared in front of him, He didn't recognized him.. He just threw a punch in the face of the old man..
When the old man saw Rito threw a punch he blocked it with his right hand, and firmly hold the fist of the young man..
Rito wanted to break away but he can't.
He tried to kick the old man..
When he was about to raised his foot, The old man opened his left eye and a strange red light emitted from it..
When Rito saw the strange red light, He stopped moving and just stared at it..
A few breathes had passed, Rito's crimson eye and hair returned back to normal..
He lost his consciousness and fell on the ground..
Meanwhile, The old man closed his left eye and his face turned pale.

When the remaining people saw the old man defeated the young man..
They just started running away from there as fast as they can..
They didn't even thank the old man, They just wanted to get out of there as soon as possible..
The events they all witnessed today was too much for them.
They all don't want to be a part of it..
While the old man was staring at the young man wearing a red robe...
A portal suddenly appeared in the void and a piglet that was about 12 inches with an earring on his left ear came out.
"How is he?" said the piglet.
He was Saint Amo, The owner of the Temple of Courage.
The old man looked at Saint Amo and said. "The negative energy he collected was too much so he lost control of the red aura.."
Saint Amo looked at the old man with a pale face and said. "He will get devour by it one day".
The old man smiled and said. "No, He will not.. I trust him".
Saint Amo didn't say anything and just stared at the young man wearing a red robe..
Seeing Saint Amo's silence, The old man said. "I need to go now, the negative energy was too much I needed to stabilize myself or there will be a disaster... I can't monitor him anymore.. please look out for him..."
Saint Amo looked at the old man for awhile..
He snorted and said. "Hmph, If I didn't owe you a favor I wouldn't even bother with you.. Looks like this kid is fated with me, He even pass the test of courage..".
"Go! I will only help him once, and that is if he will really die.. If I saw him still breathing I wont do shit.".
The old man just smiled and vanished from the air..
Meanwhile Saint Amo summoned one of his minion and said. "You! transform into a human and take him somewhere to take a rest and tell him what he needs to know.. I was having fun with girls on the beach and this thing interrupted me, tsk".
The piglet snorted and entered the portal and disappeared within the void.
Meanwhile, The minotaur transform and turned into an old man full of wrinkles on his face..
He picked up the young man and disappeared in the air..

One month had passed..
Rito was lying in the bed..
He was still sleeping when he heard a noise..
His face frowned and slowly opened his eyes..
He saw an old man full of wrinkles cooking...
He was in a long sleep so he was still in a dazed..
When he regained his senses,
He jumped out of bed and be on high alert..
He remembered he was in the Cucu pavilion fighting with Endo and when he killed him, He suddenly felt a headache and start slaughtering the people, After that he didn't know what happened next. While he was contemplating, the old man suddenly spoke.
"You don't need to be on guard, I save you. If I want to kill you, You think you can jump out of bed like what you did just now?".
Hearing what the old man said.
he realized he was right..
he calmed down and looked at the old man with an apologetic looked.
"Sorry, Thank you for saving me".
The old man replied. "you don't need to thank me, If you want to thank someone, Thank my master".
Rito felt confused and asked who was his master..
When he found out that his master was the piglet..
He was shocked at first but then smiled.
The piglet still remembered him..
While he was feeling happy the old man said.
"My master owe someone a favor and asked him to help you, That's why he did it or else he won't even bother with you".
Rito hearing what the old man said, smiled bitterly but he was still grateful to the piglet...
He began to wonder.
"Can I asked who is it?".
He was talking about who helped him..
but the old man replied. "No,I can't tell you... I can only tell you things you need to know for now.."
Rito was a bit disappointed, but he didn't ask about it anymore.
Whoever it was, He will pay him in the future..
Then he asked the old man.
"What happened to me?".
The old man said. "You got consumed by the Aura of Slaughter".
Rito was shocked when he heard the old man. "Aura of slaughter? what aura of slaughter?".
The old man then said things related to aura of slaughter.. after the old man was finished.
Rito said.
"So everytime I used the red aura, It will collect negative energy in the surroundings and If it gathers enough energy beyond what I can handle. It will start to devour me and turn me into a killing machine is that it?".
The old man just nod.
Rito thought to himself. "So that's why the piglet warned me to not depend on the red aura.. He knows something, if I can't control it properly, it will backfire."
"But why is that old man give it to me?".
There are many questions that Rito wanted an answer but the old man just keeps shaking his head.
"Looks like I need to find an answer myself "He said to himself.
