Life? Death? what's the difference? Many consider these two elements as opposites and the bane for the other but in reality, they are just different sides of the same coin. Derik always dreamt about becoming a cool mage and when the time came, he was disappointed... But even with the status of an archer he still pushed forward until he stumbled upon his magic... A power he could call his own.... DEATH!
Watching the blade crumble in Derik's hand many were stunned at first. They all believed that Dean just crushed the blade with brute strength but after thinking everything through for a while they realized how impossible it is for a kid to reduce steel to dust with just brute strength. While these people were secretly amazed but tried not to show it much, Derik was troubled. He hated the fact that using the rotting effect of his aura on a simple kitchen blade demanded most of his energy and the rotting effect was too slow. At this point, Derik concluded that using this ability in battle is not really practical.
