Flashbacks
That night, a moaning sound was heard clearly from the Tower of the residence of the queen of Arletta, the queen of the fire clan. His whimpering voice endured the pain so clearly, it was heard by Xavier. Xavier walked towards the Tower, passing through a dark passage only illuminated by a small torch about 3 meters away from each other. The passageway was like endless and only a black shadow was visible in front of it.
Climbing a few steps, Xavier arrives at a door. The door is forbidden and can never be opened. But the increasingly clear roar made Xavier forced to open the door slowly. A pair of brown eyes peeked out from the doorway and he saw the queen of Arletta slumped on the floor covered in blood.
Xavier's eyes immediately rounded, but his mouth was silent, unable to make a sound.
The light from the flame of the candle makes clear Xavier's vision of a knife still dripping fresh blood in the hands of a stranger to him, Frederic, the king of fire.
“Xavier, Xavier,. “.
Xavier still heard clearly the voice of Queen Arletta who called out her name.
“Don't worry my queen, the boy will catch up with you.” Said Frederic who smiled with satisfaction. His eyes barked red staring at the helpless Arletta.
“Ti-No. Don't do anything to our son.” Pinta Arletta held the king's robe red, like blood.
But Frederic wagged it, even keeping his feet away from Arletta's helpless body.
Seeing Arletta's condition, Xavier knew that Arletta's breath was on the edge but Frederic did not budge on the request. Xavier seemed to see a different figure from the father figure he had known all along. His eyes lit up red and turned towards the door. Xavier could see the flames of greed that were in his eyes.
“Look, he even came alone to deliver his life.” Frederic said with a big grin looking at the surprised face of the child.
“Ja-don't go near Xavier, run.” Arletta's voice was stupefied between her breaths. Her eyes are red, shedding tears. Her fear grew when she imagined that her husband might do the same to her son.
“Tell him that death does not hurt. Because I kill you with feelings and tenderness.” Frederic rubbed Arletta's head gently. For a while he looked at her lovingly, until then,...
“AWH!” Arletta complained as Frederic pulled his hair until Arletta's head turned up.
Apparently That was the last word Xavier heard from his mother's mouth because a second later the knife was lifted into the air and was cut into Arletta's mother's heart.
“AAARRRGGGGGHHHHH” Shouted Xavier with his shock and anger. His eyes barked red with tears, his hands clenched tightly until his fingertips turned white.
He immediately ran to Frederic and hit his body bigger than Xavier.
“Brug!” arletta's body fell down on the floor with blood pooling, surrounding her body.
Xavier gasped for anger, still recalling how the face of pain and anxiety was drawn on his mother's face. Arletta no longer moved in the slightest, but gradually the light in his body faded away and disappeared, leaving only the reddish glow of the aura that then entered into Frederic's body through the tip of the hand that had torn Arletta's body.
“BRASS!!!” Xavier. As powerful as he was, he hit Frederic's body which was sucking Arletta's aura.
Frederic's body flinched as he was at the lowest point of his strength. Yes, when he sucked the aura of another God or Goddess, then his body was like an empty shell waiting to be filled.
Frederic fell to his knees and Arletta's aura swirled around the room.
“ASSHOLE!” Frederic did not accept. He immediately got up with his body that was not too energetic. Holding on to the wall and standing up straight he approached Xavier to beat him up.
“ARGH!” Frederic groaned in pain as Xavier's sword pierced through his stomach.
The two men looked at each other. Xavier with anger and Frederic with his surprise. Frederic touched his bleeding stomach. He raised his hand and looked at his bloodied palm.
When his strength returned, Frederic raised his hand to punch his fist at Xavier. Xavier, however, took a faster movement by slashing the sword from his abdomen toward Frederic's shoulder and passing through his heart, until the man's body split in two.
“BRUG!” Frederic's body collapsed while Xavier was still stuck in place gasping for air. Unknowingly, he had slashed his father to death.
Slowly, Frederic's body decomposed, becoming a sparkle of light that surrounded Xavier. Various past shadows about him and his parents filled Xavier's mind and made the man collapse by resting on his two weak knees.
“AAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!” Shouted Xavier as he spread his arms and looked up to challenge the roaring night sky. He was angry at the circumstances that made him have to lose both parents at the same time.
Not long after, Frederic's aura was seen approaching Xavier , along with Arletta's aura. Xavier's body was suddenly weak and he could not turn his body over.
Little by little the auras from his parents entered Xavier's body and Xavier could only fall silent without being able to resist.
From his place, Xavier heard the sound of thousands of footsteps approaching towards him. The sound of the trumpet sign of war sounded.
“PRINCE KILL KING! PRINCE KILL KING!” call someone who is the commando.
At the same time the elders came to the tower of the queen's residence.
“Follow him!” Rowley the advisor. He was still very surprised by what he saw. In the room was only Xavier and two clothes that were originally worn by the king and the queen of the fire clan. But now they disappeared, leaving blood soaking in the rocky floor.
Some people approached Xavier and tied the man up immediately. Xavier who was at his weakest point, could not put up a fight. He fell drooping in the strings of the fire clan.
“He is very dangerous. We have to lock his power.” Said one of the elders.
“But, we can't treat our prince like this. He is the only successor in this fire clan.” Timpal Rowley the advisor.
“Then, can you guarantee that the prince will not mess up in the fire clan? What if he destroys this clan? Moreover, the auras of his two parents had entered into his body. He can destroy all the clans that exist in this universe.” Said another elder.
Rowley seemed to think. He couldn't possibly let Xavier destroy the fire clan just like that. He actually regretted this but he had no other choice but to follow the elders' advice.
“We just lock his power in the beast body and drive him out of this clan but never anyone tries to kill him. I think it's better.” Said another elder.
“Call the Wizard here, he has to do his job.” Rowley said at the end.
“Good.” A servant nodded obediently. He summoned the male magician who was in the fire clan.
With a ritual, they begin to cast a curse on Xavier. He is locked inside the body of a wolf so that its power does not threaten others. Xavier was eventually exiled to a place called Godland.
