I Can Copy Curses

Chapter 188: 188. Meeting Sword Sage again

Just after Orion and the others were teleported to their world, in the Null Void, only Azeron and Orion's clone remained.

Though the clone was still in pause mode,.

Azeron looked at the clone and found it very interesting.

"A clone made up of chaos that can exist independently and have thoughts and desires not restricted by the original. You don't see that every day."

He pondered something as he looked at the clone and sighed in the end.

"I don't know if what I am about to do will be a boon or a bane to that kid but..."

Taking the fate core out of his body, he took it closer to the clone and resumed the time he had paused.

"But since I am a kind person, I will do this clone a favour."

As time resumed, the clone turned into dust particles and was about to get blown away by the wind when Azeron waved his hand, causing the dust particles to gather together towards the fate core, and it devoured them inside.

"I wasn't lucky and did many things I regretted. I hope you don't walk my path and do the same."

With those words, he disappeared from the Null Void as well.

Back at present, in the barren lands, Orion had explained everything to Butler Rio. He didn't leave behind anything except the words that were in his mind, which he didn't remember hearing.

Butler Rio's face turned serious after he fully listened to Orion.

"Young Master, I believe the Valen Family is done for good. They will face extreme punishment from the emperor but what your clone did about ordering other clones to kill the people in there would also draw some unwanted attention towards our family. After all, nearly all the people besides those from the seven Magi families and some strong organisations were killed inside."

Orion frowned, thinking it was all his clone's doing and that it wasn't in any way related to him but he also understood this wouldn't calm the public.

People died there and the person responsible for killing them was his. So, they would blame him—they would have to blame at least someone for so many people's deaths, and he was the biggest suspect.

"Young Master, Your Highness Sir Kane is coming here."

At that moment, Orion heard Butler Rio's words and turned around to see that Sword Sage, along with his siblings Erick and Princess Luma, had landed beside him. Elyn, too, was with them, and her expression didn't look good at all.

Orion immediately stood up and bowed down to him in respect.

"Your Highness, Sir Kane. Please forgive me; I didn't greet you the last time we met."

The last time he was too late to recognise him and even when he did, he forgot to greet him, for which he was deeply embarrassed when he later remembered his blunder.

Kane nodded and looked at him with a smile.

"You don't have to worry about that and truthfully, I dislike that very much."

Orion nodded and asked:

"What can I do for you, Your Highness?"

Kane's smile vanished upon hearing him.

"Tell me about your clone. Everything you know."

Orion frowned. He hadn't expected him to ask this. Though he still decided to answer him truthfully, he chose to keep some things to himself.

And from the looks of it, Elyn only heard the end of the of the conversations between him and his clone when the clone was revived after he killed him. Otherwise, they wouldn't be here asking him that question. So, he could cook any fantasy here.

"The clone of mine was different from the others cloned in there. My talent is called energy condensation, and with that, I could condense any elements out there but since my clone is also a form of energy, at least that's what he told me, he was able to remain condensed without scattering like other clones."

Kane narrowed his eyes at his words.

"I know the laws of the Null Void very well and also understand how that world works. So it is hard to believe what you said just now."

Orion shrugged.

"That's what my clone told me and even I myself have some doubt whether he was spouting nonsense or was telling the truth."

He was going to stick to this reason. He didn't want others to know he could use chaos energy. It was a whole new concept for them. If people were to know that there exists a human who could control an energy different than mana out there, Who knows what kind of chaos would occur if the words were to get out?

"Well, don't worry about the clone. Tell me why he killed all the people in there." Kane asked again.

"He said something about other people's clones being controlled by someone and therefore, the clones wanted to kill the originals as soon as we arrived in that world."

Kane nodded. He could guess who was controlling them.

Orion then asked for something from him.

"Will the deaths of so many people be blamed on me?"

Kane shook his head and said,

"It's not that simple. The majority of the people who died were people from common backgrounds, and if they want to blame you, then there is nothing you can do. But since it wasn't true, their claims would be ignored by the royal family so you don't have to worry about that. However, don't take my words for granted."

Orion nodded in understanding.

"You kid from the Darkwood family, because of you, my young master died just now."

At that moment, a loud shout reached the ears of Orion and everyone present in that area.

Orion frowned and turned to see that the shout came from the Grimwolf family.

At that moment, a middle-aged man with long hair carried a child and arrived before them.

"Look, what you did! Young Master Loren is dead and it's all because of you."

Snots and tears washed that man's face as he laid Loren down on the ground.

He wasn't breathing. His body was full of injuries and it seemed he died of blood loss.

Everyone came to their area and after seeing the dead body of Loren, they were shocked.

Loren Grimwolf—the direct descendant of the Grimwolf family—the son of the Magi King Varen Grimwolf—died and it shocked every individual present there.

The news of some direct descendants dying was very rare in the seven Magi families so much so that the last time they heard something like that was when a member of the Silverflame died in Grimshore five years ago.

Therefore, the sudden news of Loren's death caused many people to exclaim in shock.

"You Darkwood Family kid, you will pay for this."

Some other middle-aged man from the Grimwolf family came and shouted at Orion.

Orion frowned upon hearing their blame. He felt disgusted by their attitude. They knew that it wasn't he who killed him, but they still blamed him.

"Tell me, which freaking eyes saw that it was me who killed him? Tell me!"

His eyes spit fire as he asked them that question. He didn't care about the blame being on him but he wasn't alone; he carried the blood of the Darkwood family with him. So, any blaming they do on him would make the Darkwood family look bad.
