Chapter 5: Die!

That night, had finally ended, and it became known as the Black Fire! The day when a great massacre had occurred. The difference between that day, and the others, where there was also a town, or a village massacred by the Black Tower was very simple.

Since, this time, more than one village was massacred in the same day. In fact, this time around, it wasn't just a village from one kingdom, instead, the Black Tower attacked three kingdoms at the same time.

They had managed to destroy seven villages in total. And, more than 1500 lives were lost. Coincidently, all these seven villages, were left without guards that night. Some of them, had hordes of monsters to deal with (Like Ronia village), others had different matters to attend to, like rogues invading, or something of great deal happening.

This was theorized to be the work of Nobles, nobles that ruled inside those three kingdoms. After all, they were the only ones who could control the guards into doing whatever they wanted in the shadows, either by paying them off, or creating a monster invasion to lure them out of the village.

Unfortunately, nothing could be proven, and they couldn't even link one of the nobles to anything involving the suspicious, dangerous missions that day. It was the same with the Black Tower, since no one knew their objective in doing so.

Most people thought they were trying to summon demons, who were banished to the Lower Realm, ages ago, but no one knew for sure.

This day, the Black Fire! Was so shocking, and grand, that the entire Rosendar continent, heard about it. In fact, this massacre was so big, that even other continents heard about it, since there hadn't been such large massacres in a long time.

The Black Tower, had sent seven groups, all led by Second Star Magicians, people that were regarded as very strong individuals, and could battle Police Officer Captains. With them, were an abundance of One Star, and 0th Star subordinates.

And, against normal civilians, they were terrifying. It was truly a massacre, there were barely any losses from the groups sent by the Black Tower. The most they suffered, was inside Ronia village, where they had lost 3 One-Star Magicians, and 2 0th Star members.

One of those three One-Star Magicians, was killed by Ron. Matthew's father, as for the other two, they were both killed by Asvin Cavias, the knight, that had come here by chance. Jena, Matthew's mother, killed one 0th Star Magician, and the other one, was killed by the Manos sisters' father.

That was the official release by the kingdoms, and the Black Tower. But, in reality, someone leaked a tip saying, there was one village where all the Magicians were killed. The entire squad disappeared.

This incident, would be the spark that created a New Age, an age that changed the world forever.

...

In a white room, Matthew woke up, he sat up on the bed he was offered, which was very comfortable for him, and looked around his surroundings, as he thought to himself, after he confirmed that he was alone in the room.

'A hospital room, han? Where is this, though? Are Terria, and Sonia... fine? What happened to... to my village? Ronia village? Are, dad and mom, truly...dead??', with that, he felt like his eyes were burning, as tears formed in the next second.

He brushed his face, and thought to himself, as he resisted the urge to cry, 'I have to make sure the Manos sisters are alright first, I can't let them die as well, I already, no, they too, have also, lost, well, everything!'.

With that, he stood up from his bed, and walked, bare foot. Outside the room, as he got out, he felt a little shocked. He saw many people lying about, injured, waiting for doctors to come to them.

'What, is this... they are not, from Ronia, so, why are there, so many injured people here? Did something else happen yesterday as well?', but still, Matthew ignored this, as he made his way through the hall, until he saw a middle-aged man, sitting behind a counter.

He made his way to him, and before he could say anything to the man, he heard a voice, it was gentle, and sounded filled with energy, as it said to him, "Don't worry Matthew, they are fine! In fact, we can visit them now if you want!".

Matthew immediately turned to look at the person that had just spoken to him, but he didn't recognize him, and backed down a little, afraid of him. The man was puzzled for a moment, before he smiled, and said under his breath, "Oh yeah! You never actually saw me, right? Do you remember a man wearing a red vest yesterday? That was me!".

Matthew looked at him for a second, as he tried to remember a man like that, until he did, "T... Thank you for saving us!", said Matthew, as he bowed to the young man before him.

Asvin smiled again, and said, "You don't have to thank me, if you didn't delay those two, I might have not made it in time, so good job on that!", said Asvin, as he tried to lessen the guilt the seven-year-old boy was feeling at the moment.

Asvin could see how bad the boy was feeling, and so, he tried to praise him, to give him some comfort at the very least. Since he was very bad at doing anything else beside praising people.

"Well, anyway, let us go take a look at the two little girls, they are currently residing in my house! You know, we have some delicious food there, so look forward to it, c'mon, follow after me!", said Asvin, trying to change the thoughts currently running inside Matthew's head.

'So, mom and dad, are really, truly, no... right? It can't be? They can't, right? Why would they? I know that Magicians are strong, especially ones from the Black Tower, but even then, they, no, that's just impossible! Hah! Hahaha! Mom, and dad, they are, dead!'.

'They are dead, dead, dead, dead, DEAD! They are, gone, I will never see them again, I, but why? I won't see them again, I won't laugh with them again, this is what death means, right? They are, dead! Gone, gone, gone, GONE! They are dead, and gone, hah! Hahaha!'.

Matthew held his arms together, as he fell to the ground, tears were streaming down his eyes, and he was laughing crazily, he couldn't believe it, he clenched his shirt hard, as he tried to hold his boiling heart.

'Painful, painful, it's very painful, I can't do this, this is too much, someone, please, just kill me, let me go with them, I don't want to live anymore, since, they aren't here anymore, ahh! It hurts, it hurts a lot, I can't do this, not without them here, I just can't, just, end it, someone, please!', Matthew's laughter had already ceased, but his tears only continued strolling down his face.

Many turned around to look at him, as some started crying as well. Asvin only looked at him, he didn't know what to do. He just carried the young boy, and took him to his room, closed the door, and put him on the soft bed. He then stood up, but Matthew's hand reached him, and his grip hardened. He kept hugging him while crying.

'Dammit! What am I supposed to do here? I don't know, I guess, I should probably just stay silent, and let him cry it out! He has to get through this, otherwise, it will be very hard for him inside the orphanage! Damn that stubborn father of mine!', thought Asvin, as he just stopped there, letting the child hug him, while he cried.

'No! I don't want them gone, they shouldn't go, it's their fault, they caused this, those damned Magicians sent by the Black Tower! I promised it already! But I will say it again, I will Massacre them, all of them, they should just die, die, die, DIE! All of them!', thought Matthew, as his tears stopped running down.

His expression changed from one of extreme sadness, to one of anger, no, it would be better to call it, savageness, and craziness.

Matthew had never known what hatred meant, he had heard many say that they hated another person, he had even used the word many times, when he tried convincing his father to take him to the capital.

But, it wasn't until now, that he truly felt it, he truly knew what it meant to hate someone, or something, as his hatred ran deep toward the Black Tower. But, this was even deeper than anger, he didn't just want to kill them, he wanted to erase their entire existence from the world, a goal, he knew was close to impossible to accomplish.

Nonetheless, this was his goal in life now, a goal he was prepared to do anything to achieve.
