ARCANIA
CHAPTER 7 TRAGEDY

"What the hell is all this!?", Rion said frantically.

Looking at his burning village Rion thoughtlessly ran into the village while avoiding the attacks of the undead, while on the way Rion heard many screams from the villagers.It made Rion frightened and panicked,so Rion ran while covering her ears.

"What's really going on here!?".

"I just left the village for a few hours, and there was an attack on the undead".

"Are mom and dad okay!?".

"Are your friends okay too!?".

"Say a lot of things that make me dizzy and panic at the same time".

While in the middle of the trip Rion is surprised by Aunt Silvia and Vivi who have turned into the undead.

"No!...Aunt Silvia!...Vivi, what happened to you!?".

Instantly, Rion's body stiffened and trembled, cold sweat drenching his pale face.Not a word was said from Rion's mouth.

Without Rion noticing Aunt Silvia, Vivi and the other undead begin to approach Rion, the pensive Lion is still petrified.

Just as Rion was about to be bitten by one of the undead, there was a sound of gunfire from a distance that instantly broke the heads of the undead and not least aunt Silvia and Vivi.

"Rion realize!Do you want to die here!?", shouted a man wearing a cowboy hat and a long leather jacket from a distance.

Suddenly Rion was surprised and realized while looking at the man, "Uncle Guird...Aunt Silvia and Vivi have...".

Amidst the flames, the man approached Rion and knelt down in front of Rion while looking sharply at Rion's eyes, "Hei Rion listen!, many villagers have turned into the undead".

"But this is not the right time to cry for our dead citizens and friends, we must now focus on saving ourselves and helping others as much as we can".

"Hey Rion look that way!, that's the way out of the village.Run that way, let me take care of the rest", said Uncle Guird while showing the way that Rion had just passed.

"No uncle!, I haven't even found my father and mother, nor Sophia, Mike and Aron" Rion said uneasily.

Uncle Guird held onto Rion's shoulders and said, "Rion!, just relax I'll try to help them".

"So please run as far away from here as possible".

"I don't want to see you hurt Rion!".

"All right!I will leave everything to uncle, I believe in uncle", Rion said gloomily.

When Rion ran back out of the village.Disata Rion ran a few steps heard a big explosive sound behind Rion, it also made Rion look back.

It was seen a blazing white-eyed man stabbing Uncle Guird from behind with a sword, "Rion Run!", whimper Uncle Guird.

The man dropped Uncle Guird to the ground and looked at Rion from a distance, The man slowly walked towards Rion while holding a sword that was being fed by mana.

Without thinking, Rion ran away from the man, but unfortunately Rion was caught by three undead children who were actually Aron, Mike and Sophia who had become undead.

Panicked and sad Rion simultaneously began to rebel, but what power Rion is only a child, his body began to be bitten by Aron, Mike and Sophia.Rion who was tired can only resigned to accept the situation.

Suddenly a ball of fire shot towards Rion and struck the undead that surrounded Rion, "Rion are you okay?", said a woman who came to Rion.

Rion turned to the source of the voice, "Dad...Mama!?.

"Dad...Mother I'm sorry for what happened this afternoon" Rion said as she tried to get up from her seat.

"Who are you?, what do you want?", asked Rion's father as he pointed his sword at the mysterious man.

"Reinhard Arcania, the owner of the royal blood family, the owner of the lost Orion sword and his wife Alice Annora, the last descendant of the witch race" the man said, putting on a smiling face.

"It is quite difficult to find you who are in the village of plosok kingdom, who would have thought you two living legends made a small family here"

"You may be confused by what I do, but if you try to understand me you will understand what I do".

"What are you doing all this for?", asked Rion's father.

"All I want is the blood of the rightful heir of the kingdom of Arcania and the blood of the witch race, so I can save you and the world from destruction" the man said.

"That's right!.You refer to this as saving!?, by slaughtering and turning villagers into the undead!?", said Rion's father.

"A great salvation requires sacrifice and this sacrifice is only a little bit of the real sacrifice" said the Mysterious Man.

"Sorry, I have an appointment tonight so next time" Rion's father said with a forced smile.

"It's a pity that you don't understand when I hope you understand, but believe me with the death you two rituals will be able to run" said the man.

Soon a swarm of undead appeared from various sides, along with it appeared also two white and purple hooded people,there appeared also a creature that was pitch-black and shrouded in black smoke with eyeballs shining from behind the Mysterious Man.

"Alice!, take Rion running with you" said Rion's father as he mounted the fighting horses.

"No Reinhard!, we fight them together", said Rion's mother by force.

"No Alice!, this time it is different, I am not sure I can defeat them all.So please save and take care of Rion for us" Rion's father replied with a smile.

The undead began to approach the three of them, and inevitably Mother Rion had to take Rion away as far away as possible.

But from behind appeared the black creature that was previously behind the Mysterious Man.

"What!?.Wasn't this creature behind that Man!?, since when he moved!?, I didn't even feel the mana at all, what was it!?", inner mother Rion.

"Dad.Mom let me help you!", said Rion as he rose from his sleep.

"No Rion, stay behind us!", Rion's father said frantically.

"Why have you always underestimated my fighting ability!?", snapped Rion.

"Rion!.I beg you, this is not the time to argue, you do not know how strong the enemy we are facing right now" said Ms. Rion

Rion's mother cast a protective spell for Rion, "O Earth and heaven give me your protection!".

"No.Mom!…Get me out of here, let me help you", shouted Rion as he beat the guard from the inside

"It was no ordinary spell.He did not summon any spirit power, he used the power of heaven and earth itself.It was a high-level spell Master", the purple-clad man said to the Mysterious Man.

"No problem.All we need is his father and mother, so we don't have to bother destroying his protector" the Mysterious Man said.

"Secret!Start your game!".

"Really sir!…Ahahaha I never thought I would behead the prince and the witch, this would be a very beautiful cut" said the man in the white hood.

The white hooded man stretched out his hand backwards and immediately a large scythe emerged from his hand.

"It's going to be a long fight!", Rion's father said.
