The strange Orphanage Mission part 6

An unknown voice resonates in Arthur's head as his consciousness is completely fading away: "Do you think this is really the end for you?!" It said while grinning and laughing malicefully. Arthur fell down, drowning in nothingness made out of an inky pitch black endless lake reflecting a starless sky, smooth at first glance and trembling at a second glance. Even though it was a pitch black space, he did not feel any danger. "Hmm... where am I? What is this place? It seems I will be falling endlessly. " Art was unimpressed. "What are you doing here, brat! You do not belong here!" A powerful voice yelled full of anger at Arthur, and the whole space turned into something terrifying, like a hell full of great suffering. It was a place where eternal pain doesn't have vaccation, Art was caught by them and tortured for quite some time in that world, for a very long time. Bloody-red and inky black flames so hot that even nothingness could be burned away in an instant. It is not really surprising that the lightning had the same color, but its destructive power was on another level. It had mountains of corpses and skeletons, an uncountable number at that. Pillars, more or less destroyed, were around the place, and a huge number of swords were piercing monsters on the ground, pillars, and ruins. And screams of pain and hatred, full of malice that turned into tortured screams like those of a demon, were filling the space. No normal human could withstand this mental and spirit/ soul attack, yet Arthur was unimpressed by it. "Is this all you can come up with, you oh so great monster?!" These mocking words came from Arthur to the unknown being, even though he said that without making any facial expression to reveal his pain. In the pitch black sky, a red and very powerful energy takes the shape of a human with some weird traits and sometimes changes its form into something like a wyvern, mostly blood-red and black. It sounds like it's talking, but not in a known language, at least not to Arthur. It makes an evil grin and starts talking after laughing a lot, to which the space fluctuates. "It seems you will die soon, you brat! What will you do?! "Die or do you want to live?" The words came out, sounding like It had hidden motives behind his questions, and Arthur felt it. "What do you want?!" Arthur demanded. It started laughing "Hahaha Damn Brat, you have no right nor are you in any position to ask any questions! I could kill you anytime I wanted. Do you know that?!" The being spoke, and the space began to vibrate. "Can you?!" I'm doubting it. The being smirked and snipped with his fingers, and Arthur was attacked, much to his surprise. Art smirked back, and all the attacks disappeared. It attacked again and It had the same outcome. "How!" It yelled, but Art smirked, and suddenly some glowing portals appeared near the being and some black chains with a spear head with a faint blue glow coming from its inscription. These chains pierced through the body of the being and chained it down, which sealed it off. With this, the monster was at Arthur's mercy. "This inner world may be yours, but it is my body and yours, so I am in control and the table has turned." Art may seem confident in saying this, but he is somewhat more or less in pain. After all, the monster attacks were not to be taken lightly. "Soo... are you going to kill me, Arthur Xavier, or should I call you Arthur As-" "STOP!!" The unknown's sentence was interrupted abruptly. "What do you know! Who do you think you are!" Art was greatly shaken by his words because deep down he knew that the being was aware of his identity. *Chuckle, chuckle* "It seems you have a lot of questions, but I can only tell you that I know who you are and that I have been with you since the day you were born." Arthur exhaled heavily, "Do you want power?" It asked.

A: "Why would I need your powers?"

U: "No one will be able to stop you."

A: "What do you want for your powers?"

U: "I want to be set free and no one will be able to stop you. You will be unstoppable! I can feel your rage, hatred, and anger. All of your pain. You can go and rampage through everything, you can let out your anger and emotions that you buried deep down inside yourself. "

A: "Hmm.."

U: "I am mad at what you had to go through. Don't you want revenge!"

A: "If you come out, there will be nothing but rage. There will be nothing left and nowhere to go. So you must remain in your cage. "

U: "Why are you behaving like that? Your life has been pretty bad. Really bad until now. So why don't you let the fire inside you burn brighter than ever? Why?! Weren't you left out in the rain alone, betrayed by your dearest friends and worse?!"

A: "Because when you are angry, you cannot think right anymore." Yet he was tempted to give in. His emotions were raging inside him and they wanted to break out and be free. He bites his lip so that he can concentrate on keeping them in their cage.

U: "I am going to break out, I have no doubt! Now that I am awake, you will never be able to put me to sleep! Once I get out, I will hurt and break anyone who ever treated you like dirt and was a fake! I promise!"

A: "I can do it on my own!"

U: "What got you here won't bring you there! "Let me handle most of your daily activities."

A: " It seems that you won't shut up any time soon. You need to get tuned in, don't you?!"

U: "Hahaha!!! You think that you are able to do so! You don't even know who I am and you want to tame me! Ridiculous! You know what, I will give you a tiny bit of my powers for five minutes and one ability, as well as an elemental authority. These two will be yours forever, but you need to cultivate them on your own. Maybe then you will know whom you are facing!" He grinned with malice and pointed his fingers out, and something close to sparks or a magic sphere appeared and flew inside his chest, after which they were absorbed. "You know what, ... here's a bonus because I am kind. But you will find out later what it is." He snapped his fingers, and Art was coming back to himself.

"What is that omnious energy gathering around Arthur!" Anthony asked doubtfully if Art was even alive. *Booooooommm!!!* A sudden erruption of energy, which caused an energy wave, happened, and Art was slowly standing up. A bloody-red and faint black aura was surrounding him. His ocean-sky blue eyes had turned blood red and were now glowing, and a smirk was on his face. Anthony, who was petrified by this event, came to his senses and started casting 6-Star magic called Chaos Flare, which is one of the most powerful magic at that level.

A powerful and fierce red-black flame that looked like a huge fireball wushed towards Arthur, who wasn't even fully awake yet. It hit him and exploded. Luckily, the ceiling was pretty high and nothing fell down. "How do you like that!" Anthony shouted out loud.

"Shut up, my ears hurt." Arthur interrupted him completely, which made his jaw drop. There isn't a single scratch on Art. Not a single one. The Magic Arrow Parade! A thousand magic arrows were shot by Anthony at Arthur. Most of them went past him, and the ones that hit him disintegrated or were negated. Seeing how he could not injure him, he used defensive magic and buffs as well as entchantments to power himself up.

7-Star magic: Fire Dragon Armor, Deflection Orb, Well, he was not really convinced that Art was unvulnerable and attacked again like an idiot, struggling in vain. Chaos Typhoon, Hymn of Felstorms, Fire Storm, Purgatory Fire, Bolt of Total Eclypse, and Unholy Bolt. A lot of spells flew at Arthur, but the outcome remained the same as before, not a single scratch. "It seems that the red-black aura can negate every type of magic." Art came to this conclusion in his mind, but little did he know about its full power and potential.

"Now it's my turn!" Arthur said and let his mysterious aura flow through his sword, after which he vanished. Anthony didn't know what happened to him, but he woke up lying on the ground a few hundred meters away after being smashed into the wall by Art. "How..." is this even possible?" Anthony asked, gasping for air and coughing up blood. Arthur looked at him and stabbed him in the back. His body changed and it was no longer young but the body of a disgusting old man who looked like he had lived for a few centuries.

"So the Chimera Creator was you all along." "Yes," Anthony answered Arthur's question. On a rampage, he used that being's flames to burn down the monster, but Art couldn't figure out why it was still laughing while it died. "I now know who you are. Hahahaa... Poor child."

Arthur was puzzeled about his words but he displaced the thoughts and reported everything about the suspects, every event, and what happened as detailed and fast as possible. After his report, an explosion occurred; the whole orphanage went to dust, and the cave collapsed. Arthur made a barrier out of Aura, but he forgot the remaining time and collapsed because of exhaustion too. He fell into an underground river, which was flowing through the cave, and hit his head, which made him lose his consciousness. Now he is drifting away...
