Chapter 42: CHAPTER 42: DARK KAGE

"Dark Lordany, Dark Hartina." Someone called after entering the training hall, specifically made for Deorc Star users only.

 

The training hall was the size of a football field stadium and very spacious. What's more, it's perfect for Deorc Star users who want to fight with each other. They will not damage anything very much with a large area and have room to attack or dodge after being attacked.

 

"Hm? Dark Kage. What are you doing here? Aren't you building your latest weapon in the east?" Dark Hartina asked and raised his hand to Rafiz so that they could rest for a while.

 

He was training Rafiz to use his powers again and since not many users used the training room often, he felt the place was right for them. And it's been a month since he freed Rafiz from his cell. 

 

Although Dark Sethan did feel remorse towards Dark Hartina but later he thought he was bored already with Rafiz. So, he lets Dark Hartina take Rafiz while he goes do something else he won't feel bored with.

 

Dark Hartina feels a bit of relief in secret because Rafiz has slowly let go of the hate in his eyes. However, sometimes he saw it when Rafiz met Dark Sethan. He guessed Dark Sethan was Rafiz's first nemesis since he lost his memories. 

 

He also noticed Ledeigh or his men following him. It just happened that Dark Kurumi has come back and with his acute senses, he silently messaged him about them following him in secret. So, Dark Hartina was more determined to leave Dorothia but not now.

 

He needs Rafiz to become stronger to overcome other Deorc Star members who might become their enemies later. Well, most of them are Bright Star users yet they can't just be the punching bags for them, right?

 

"I needed more time before I could take Dark Lordany away from here." He thought quietly.

 

Back to the training hall…

 

"I just want to visit Dark Lordany. How is the training? I heard you are the instructor," smiled Dark Kage. 

 

"I don't think you have it in you..." He continued with a chuckle.

 

Dark Hartina raised an eyebrow at Dark Kage. "There's no job I'm not suitable for. With my memory, I can compose which attack is suitable for Dark Lordany. I've seen and remembered other people's attacks... And you too." Dark Hartina replied with a smirk.

 

"Heh! Then let me add another one to please you." 

 

Dark Kage clapped his hands. Instantly, all around them continued to shake and in one area to the left of the field, the ground moved to the side and there were two iron gates beneath it. The doors move as well, in opposite directions from each other. Dark Hartina and Rafiz could hear the sound of the elevator from the hole. They were shocked to see something coming out of the hole with the floor beneath it rising upwards.

 

"Let me introduce you to my newest robot invention. Cyborg 201! I built it the same shape as a giant human but has a high weapon and ability to fight. Its body is made of-..." Dark Kage's words were interrupted by Dark Hartina.

 

"Dark Kage, when did you make it?" 

 

Dark Hartina was flabbergasted looking at the huge robot, maybe about 10 metres tall. His eyes also twitched. 

 

What the hell did Dark Revier give him?!

 

As for Rafiz, he gawked. What is this thing? It's all made of shiny dark metallic.

 

"Hm? It's been a long time. But don't worry. Cyborg 201 doesn't rot and rust easily because the material used is-..." Dark Kage wants to explain again but gets cut off one more time.

 

"Does anyone else know if you built it? I was never told." 

 

"These are one of my two hundred and one secret weapons. Of course, I won't tell anyone." Replied Dark Kage who started to feel irritated by Dark Hartina's interruption.

 

"Hm? So this should be the number two hundred and one…? How many did he make?" Rafiz thought quietly.

 

"How many secret weapons have you built?" He couldn't help but ask.

 

Dark Kage smiled. "Almost five thousand. My latest weapon is near the east right now. Don't worry, I won't use it on you."

 

Rafiz was startled to hear it. He's not sure who was scarier among the Deorc Star right now.

 

"By the way, don't you think its huge body is at disadvantage?" 

 

Dark Hartina rolled his eyes. Such a huge and tall thing, can it hit people smaller than it?

 

"You'll see it later. By the way, why didn't you use the robots that I made for you two?" Dark Kage didn't see his robots that were made with the same appearance and ability as Rafiz and Dark Hartina.

 

"Look there?" Dark Hartina pointed at one area at the stadium seats that line upwards.

Dark Kage's eyes widened when he saw the two robots were beaten and damaged. That area also was damaged probably by the fall of those robots.

 

"Damn! You destroyed it?!" He scowled at the two of them.

 

His babies were hurt! How cruel of them to do this! His appearance immediately sulked with sorrow.

 

Dark Hartina shrugged. "Their abilities are so-so. You might want to adjust it more."

 

"Tsk! I'll make it more powerful later. I thought if they beat you guys or you guys accidentally die, they can replace you guys which is kind of worth it." Dark Kage's sentences make Dark Hartina glare at him.

 

"Hey!"

 

"I'm kidding, Dark Hartina." Dark Kage smirked. 

 

"Then, why not fight my Cyborg 201 next? I'm sure this time it will be difficult to defeat this one. My cyborg may be stronger than a human but since he only has data to analyse attacks, you might need to find suitable ways to use them. In other words, his weakness is emotions. Our strength increases with our emotions. So, try to find a way to destroy it. I will provide a reward if you succeed in destroying it."

 

"Sure, why not, right, Dark Lordany?" Dark Hartina turned his head to Rafiz.

 

Rafiz looked at Cyborg 201 then at them. Can they really defeat it?

 

"You don't want to, Dark Lordany?" Dark Kage eyed him and sulked again.

 

Rafiz was startled by the emotion of sadness and pleads in Dark Kage's eyes. Such a look makes his heart ache. It feels like someone used to do this to him before. Who was it?

 

"Erm, fine..." He conceded.

 

Dark Kage looked cheerful again and clapped his hands once more. Another cyborg appeared from the ground beside Cyborg 201.

 

Dark Hartina and Rafiz were startled by another one. There's more of it?!

 

"If you want it to stop just say 'Stop' and if you want it to attack you again, say 'Start'. Okay, I don't think there's anything else I want to tell you. I'll go first." Said Dark Kage before leaving Dark Hartina and Rafiz in the hall.

 

"He's smart…" Rafiz commented. 

 

The robots look complicated inside after he sees and defeats his own replica. He doesn't understand what the wires do inside those robots.

 

"Yeah… But, there's one thing you should know about Dark Kage. His reaction or feelings you saw are fake. Dark Kage's real self has no feelings. What he's showing is just acting. He has no emotions because his heart and brain are no longer made of real organs. He has changed them mechanically to avoid his feelings of controlling himself. His mind is also unable to process emotions. Rather, he just mimics the reactions of others to communicate in a friendly way."

 

Rafiz was shocked. "Why did he do that?!"

 

"It's not his fault either..." Dark Hartina's eyes darkened.

 

"To use his dark emblem power requires pressure from his brain and heart. His power allows him to feel all the raw materials or ores around him. His brain needs to be strong to accommodate the information that comes altogether once he uses his power. He can't control his power, causing the brain and heart to be in tremendous pain. Multiple times I see from his memories that blood has flown from his nose and ears when he uses it. Because of that, his family members decided to implant a new mechanical brain and heart in his body. In other words, Dark Kage was also like a robot himself."

 

"His family did what?! Does he even listen to them?!"

 

"Tsk! Yes, he listens to them, even though he can actually do exercises to reduce his focus and lessen his use of power. So that he can make his area of ​​power become smaller but it's not that simple. Dark Kage users since hundred years ago have long tried to control it and know the challenge of controlling their power. In the end, they still fail so they can only implant a new mechanical brain and heart in their body." Dark Hartina shook his head, pitying Dark Kage's life.

 

Rafiz was stunned after listening to it. He never thought a Deorc Star user had such an awful background. Does Dark Hartina have it too?

 

He stares at Dark Hartina. After all, what makes Dark Hartina like such colours for his appearance? He could see that it was all dyed, not the real colour.

 

Dark Hartina sighed. "To your knowledge, no one from Dark Kage's users lives beyond the age of 30. They all die young due to the pressure from their emblem's power."

 

Rafiz went silent for a moment. "Can Dark Kage now live beyond that age?"

 

Dark Hartina shrugged. "If there isn't an attack that kills him or his secret weapon explodes accidentally, he might live longer. Let's fight the robots. Talking about Dark Kage won't end since there are many things I know about him. We'll continue later. "

 

After that, Dark Hartina turns to the two robots and says starts loudly. The robots immediately attack them.
