Thump! Thump! Thump!
Lucian use his fist to continuously hit the ground, disregarding his pain and broken knuckles. "Why me?" His voice rage out, his question directed to no one in particular but was loud enough for Dunstan to hear.
Dunstan silently watch Lucian broken state and ponder at his question, 'why did Faye had a strange vision about him?' he didn't usually care about lesser humans brought from another world but there was something about Lucian that pique his interest.
The reason Lucian and the other players were seen as lesser humans without any natural talent is because they were born without mana in a world with no knowledge to magic.
'They are dead.' Lucian fist breaks through the ground as he hit harder, creating a small hole that was mixed with his blood. His dark imagination of Soren and Luna, showed him their dead body, it squeezed his heart painfully with guilt. 'just because of me. Everyone got hurt.'
Lucian turn to the side and look at Soren unconscious body, wondering how long he had before he will ends up dead like the others.
Dunstan followed Lucian actions, he had forgotten about Reed. Slowly he walked over to Reed.
Reed was slowly dying. Dunstan raise a hand, although he was a god, but he wasn't an expert at healing magic, and healing a lesser creature was easy for him.
Sand circle around Reed body, making little bright plants grow a wrap its self around Reed with gentle stem. It fixed Reed broken leg and then the rest of his wounded body.
Dunstan turned away from Reed when he was completely healed, the only reason he wasn't going to let him die was because the Ghuoit are responsible for his injuries. If it was a beast, he would have let Reed die.
The ground around Lucian leg shift again as he made another attempt to attack Dunstan. He steady his gait, and remained on his feet when he felt the earth trying to pushed him down again.
"I'm going to kill you." Lucian roar out, even though he didn't know how. His body was weak after facing the Ghuoit.
"Even after healing your friend, you still want to kill me?" Dunstan ask in a incredulous tone. He didn't understand Lucian.
"So what if you healed him?" Lucian voice out in arrogance, "he was in that state because of you! Healing him is what you are supposed to do without being told!"
Dunstan was slowly starting to feel irritated by Lucian arrogance. Tired of listening to Lucian, he let his body flow in the air, about to ascend back to the heaven realm.
"I will find you." Lucian fold his fist, his head tilted upwards as he looked at the sky, at Dunstan. "Not just you, all of you, who has been messing with me, I will_"
"Win the game Lucian. if you want to come the heavenly realm, that's the only option for a little human like you to get to the heavenly realm and meet me and the other gods."
"F*ck you and your dumbass game." Lucian mumble out before he's overtaken by tiredness and fall down.
When Lucian opened his eyes, he was in a dark cave, for a moment he thought he was dead before he couldn't see any light until he noticed the shadow of light pouring into the little hole in the cave. Lucian body felt stronger in a way that made him know that his healing didn't come from his regenerative ability but rather from something else.
"Luna?" Lucian called out in a weary tone, his eyes adjusting to the dim light in the cave to notice a certain figure, and it wasn't the petite figure of a man.
Alert by the sudden unknown presence, Lucian took a defensive stance, but lower his arms when the figure turned around to face him.
"You are always worried about that girl, the best way for you to be strong and become the greatest in this world is only if you are alone." Darion said. "How long do you think those teammates of yours will be able to with you? Each time you waste with them, you kill your potential. It's only a matter of time before they eventually turn their back on you and betrayed you like that hero friend of yours."
"How…" Lucian couldn't hide his surprise. He wonder how Darion knew about Thorin and most importantly, what was Darion doing in a cave with him.
Darion smirk and slowly walk over to Lucian, "I know everything that is going on in Hlasked, I'm not a mindless beasts that is cage in the dungeon. Those gods thinks that they can control me and trap me just because they were able to scatter my soul, but they never would have been able to do that if I didn't let them."
"What do you want?" Lucian glare at Darion. "Why did you heal me? If you are here to trap me in one of your dungeons I'm not going to let you."
Darion chuckled. "I'm only here because you called for me Lucian."
Lucian frowned in confusion, he thought back to his hateful conversation with Dunstan and he never once called for Darion.
"I didn't called for you. Whatever scheme you are trying to plot, isn't going to work, return to your dungeon, I have no interest in playing with you." Lucian summoned his blade and thought back to Dunstan words. His hateful heart muttered the words kill to him.
"Yes." Darion said in a pleasing tone. "Your heart, the darkness in it, your pure hatred called for me."
For the first time in a hundred years, Darion felt a darkness that reminded him of his own. Lucian hatred and desire for revenge was able to reach out to every piece of his shattered souls. He had given himself too easily to the 12 gods, living a dull life in Hlasked and he thought that he was contempt with it, carefree without no worries.
Darion master had betrayed him, he had lie to himself that he wanted to be free this time by living far away from his original life. But he has only given himself to another awful master.
Lucian vengeful desire has spark a fire in Darion heart, what he truly desires was revenge for the ones who use him and dump him.
