Chapter 107: 107: Curse

Lex's idea was very simple, but without the inspiration from the body of the swordsman that exploded after his death while using a skill, Lex would have never thought about trying it.

[System is it possible to use my clone to cause an explosion] he asked, not wanting to try it without the confirmation of the system.

{Ding, the host's new idea and thought process has unlocked him a new skill. The Destructive Clone} the system announced.

As he heard the announcement, he felt information on how to use the skill pop up into his head, which only occurred because he was willing to learn the skill and gave the system permission with his intentions.

{Ding, the host has learnt the Destructive Clone Skill}

It didn't hurt Lex's mind as it was a very simple skill that didn't require much knowledge. All it required was for Lex to forcefully retract the Self-Cloning without being in contact with the clone and as it is circulating its energy or he could directly order the clone to Self-Destruct.

Just as he jumped back leaving a large distance between him and his clone and he was about to attempt the skill, he received a notification before he could do so.

{Ding, the system would recommend the host to absorb the clone's gains, as it may have knowledge that is valuable to the host} the system recommended.

Hearing the notification he was surprised, but absorbing the clone wasn't a problem as he could always form another one, but he was curious as to what knowledge the clone would have gained that the system thinks is beneficial to him.

As he headed over to the clone and placed his palm on its shoulder, Lex used the Self-Cloning Eye's link with the clone to retract it back into his body and everything that the clone experienced and gained, both physically and mentally, was then transferred to him.

Instantly Lex was overjoyed and wanted to jump into the air, but suppressed the childish reaction and calmed down.

He felt enlightened towards the use of the Body Jolt Skill that he continuously attempted to copy from the Eye Demon but always fell short in its application and never understood why.

Lex was forcefully attempting to wield space to push himself forwards which would only slow him down and cause much more strain on his eyes, mind and energy.

But if he manipulated space and flowed through it without force but exploiting the link with space that the Spacial Eye gave him it would be much easier, faster and more efficient.

The Body Jolt Skill was essentially a burst towards a direction in space whereby Lex can move at untrackable speeds using space itself as a catalyst and would allow him to have an effect similar to skipping through space.

{Ding, the host's new realisation and thought process has unlocked him a new skill. The Body Jolt Skill} the system announced.

In the same way as with the Destructive Clone Skill, how to use the skill emerged within his mind and the full skill connected all the knowledge and experiences he had in using the replica ofthe skill and solidified it to form the original skill.

{Ding, the host has learnt the Body Jolt Skil}

As the announcement sprung into his mind, Lex was very happy, but had calmed down and returned to his usual tunnel-visioned and calm state.

[System, show me my status]

{Ding, the host's current status is:

Lex had become very cautious ever since he had entered this reality and realised that fate was out to ruin his life and there was always something bad waiting for him around the corner.

He felt the same gut feeling that something bad was happening but didn't know what it could be.

[Angela is safe and I don't seem to be in danger] he thought to himself.

"What could this bad feeling I have possibly be about" he wondered anxiously.

The only other thing he could think of was the orphanage.

As soon as he realised that he suddenly felt as though a part of his soul was in extreme pain and then suddenly he felt Ashura, the small black raven, return into this soul.

It was perfect timing and was almost as though it was set up by somebody that was watching playing about with his fate and life.

Lex had no time to hesitate and burst off back towards the Outer Aria Country, but knew that if there was an attacker that was capable of beating Ashura instantly, by the time he got there, it would be too late.

Streaming energy into his Soul Pet that was now dormant after being defeated he could see that the energy was beginning to heal and soothe the pulsating pain from within his soul.

All he could think about was Lola, the poor orphan he saved from the dog beast, and the rest of the orphanage that he was fending and providing for and knew that they provided him with some sort of salvation for his guilty conscience.

[Hahahaha, this really is amusing, everything you get close to or care about falls through your clutches into the pit of hell] laughed the Eye Demon.

[You are bad luck to everything that you are near to and everything you touch dies] added the Eye Demon, pouring oil onto the flame that Lex had been suppressing from the beginning.

"Am I really bad luck" he mumbled to himself, realising that everything that the Eye Demon said, despite being painful, was true.

Lex ran at full speed and with his now Earth Mortal Body that was brimming with power, he was able to cover the distance back to Outer Aria Country in less than an hour.

"I save Angela, then something happens to the orphanage and my master, can I not just be left alone to live in peace" he roared furiously at whoever was there watching him and controlling his fate.

He felt as though the Eye System was both a miracle and a curse and was beginning to wonder whether his life would be better without the Eye System.

Then the memory of the poor trash, Lex, that was beaten and thrown off a cliff and had lived his entire life being bullied and abused because of his low status and talent and instantly wiped that thought.

Lex didn't fall into despair in the slightest and all he could do was use his negativity to drive him to gain strength in the same way the Eye Demon would.

The small hope that nothing had happened and Ashura merely found a way to return to his body was what he was clenching onto, but he knew that was extremely unlikely.

As he got closer towards the Outer Aria Country, there were a few paths leading to gates that were guarded by powerful soldiers that work for the royals and the trees were becoming denser.

Lex stealthy dashed from tree to tree as he rushed towards where he remembered that the way to enter the open sewers was.

He made sure not to be spotted by any of those stood above the walls and had only just noticed how tight security was around the outer walls of the country as if always prepared for war.

The continent must have many different mysterious places and different races other than humans that may attack the country or maybe human countries between themselves, but Lex in his current state had no time to ponder about the size of the continent and was too focused on reaching the orphanage as quickly as he could.

Jumping down into the open sewers and gliding using Kano who knew his intentions and absorbed some energy from Lex to carry him into the sewage pipe that led into the slums, Lex dashed down the sewage pipe towards the sewers.

He jumped out of the small drain in the slums and there weirdly wasn't anybody out in the slums to see him, as he blitzed straight towards the orphanage.

Placing the Weston Family's daughter on the ground, knowing that she would be found by her family and that the slums weren't dangerous during the day, Lex continued towards the orphanage.

Weirdly he saw a few blood stains, but didn't see any bodies and shrugged it off as beast blood as he was more focussed on reaching the orphanage.

It was the final corner to reach the orphanage and as he turned around the corner he saw that there didn't seem to be a large commotion and the orphanage seemed to be untouched from where he was looking.

It was so quiet and empty that it was too perfect and was suspicious to Lex.

Lex was feeling as though his heart was going to leap out of his chest because of the anxiousness and anticipation as he reached closer to the orphanage.

He dashed inside the orphanage to see the most horrendous scene.

His heart slumped.

There was blood everywhere as the heads of every child were spiked into the bed stands.

On the wall directly opposite to the entrance was a message for Lex written in blood.

'E-Rank Voltac Ashura, you shouldn't have messed with somebody that you couldn't offend. With the old hag now dead I know that her secrets and skills die with her and the death of the little rodents was revenge for you killing my precious bird.

Mason'

Reading the message Lex's eyes burnt with hate as tears of blood streamed from his eyes because of his extreme hate and surge of emotion.
