ORION
The Cut Hand

The entire people living in such a remote place were being slaughtered in an instant by Chameleon's own hands. I don't know what it means to do it or just a hobby?

Orion doesn't know.

But, when he raised his head up, looking at the murky sky that was different from usual, he slightly understood. There is an invisible wall that is deliberately made so that people who are in the outer region from the remote do not hear the screams in this area. And, just once on the move, Chameleon slaughtered in a way that extended his incredible attacking range.

“I slaughtered them all!” he said so straightforward with the emotion of happiness plastered clearly on the look on Chameleon's face.

He raised both hands and spread them out while looking at this murky sky, as if enjoying a theatrical performance full of fun.

Blood had flooded the contents of Orion's head, Orion's gaze blurred as if it would be blind soon. He was shocked, he could not believe what he saw now.

“Chameleon, day ..!” Orion looked back, furious, he clenched both his hands tightly.

Intentions want to stop him, but this is not the time. Before stopping Chameleon, he had to stop himself from going berserk in a remote area.

“Then! I'll raise him!”

Whahuh?

For a moment Orion flinched, he could hardly believe what he had just heard. Is Orion deaf? Or because he has not cleaned his ears today?

Chameleon said after slaughtering them then he wanted to raise them?

“Hah?!”

No more words could rival him. This is obviously absurd but look at this remote area where there are only dozens of residents.

“Serious?”

It's like a necromancer, or maybe a powerful death angel came along. The dead are now miraculously resurrected with full consciousness.

Not only that, some of them feel they have the same air of existence as NED. Their supernatural powers are rising.

“Hah? I don't get it! Hey, Chameleon!” orion shouted at him.

“What's Orion? Do you like what I show you? If you like it, laugh. This is what I want to show you! The time where the world will only be filled by super-powered people will soon be realized!”

So that's apparently. The plan did not deviate from the beginning, but Chameleon's growing strength. Yeah, that's right. It had been half a year since Chameleon's whereabouts disappeared that day with Ade.

How could Chameleon still be the same as before!

“Crazy. Basic is insane!”

***

Desire to fight back but know the place, Orion won't go crazy before the attack plan that some knows when it will start. Just now, a frontal attack both physically and mentally really stirred up the people he had bashed in.

Once awakened, they gain supernatural powers that come from Chameleon's own body. That is, they are also fully controlled by Chameleon without caring about their own existence.

They come back to life risking their lives only for the sake of the person who killed them.

“If that power is used for the entire population in this foreign country, then everything ..”

They returned to the casino building which is currently still active as usual. No one knew that the owner of the building was gone, except for his loyal subordinates.

“I'll go get some rest. You all better do the same, because tomorrow we will move!”

Chameleon finally parted ways with his subordinates. Soon the casino will be shut down by Ripia by itself.

After the door of the room that they had been using to discuss something, it appeared that the Chameleon subordinates other than Iki who had come out, remained standing in this room.

“It's a good time to kill him. I myself can do this alone,” Jinan's cerocos, he whispered a little to Orion.

“Night is a disaster for ordinary people who rest. But different from Mr Chameleon is not it?” sahut Sera who did not succeed in killing Chameleon.

“Hei, Orion. I have a grudge because you have ruined my career,” Caraka said as she wrapped her hands around Orion's shoulders.

“If only the Eternal Flame did not exist. Then the traitor will never exist. Ah, I mean, we were enemies from the beginning, right?”

“Stop, all of you! Since then you have been doing something in vain!” said an old man who had a small body, he came out from behind a high sofa chair.

“Ha, you all make no difference. So, what do you want to do after this enemy of yours sees the power of your master directly?” respond to Orion no matter what risks ahead of him.

“I knew this would happen. Because I could have leaked information to my colleagues out there,”.

“Heh, apparently you know that we intend to do something. After all, you can't do anything right now. So stop your wishful thinking that you can kill Mr. Chameleon,” Jinan said.

“Yes, your foolish master!” orion shouted with an insane smile.

Maakk!

The fist floated lightly, landing a punch so steady that Orion darted backwards. Then hit the wall.

“Hahaha!”

Jinan, Sera, Caraka and the rest then laughed as if the one just now was a fun show. They bully Orion as if Orion is just a man who has debt but can't pay.

“Ha, what is this? You're running me? Basic, all of you are exactly little children who lack parental affection,” led Orion grimacing.

“What did you say? We did this as well as just a lesson. After all, a blow won't kill you,” said Jinan with a cocky waist.

“You are indeed the most chatty here, Jinan the Hands Buntung.”

The second box had floated up, as if threatening but remember that Orion would not be easily swayed just because of something trivial like this.

“Bunt hand? Hey, check this out.”

Jinan threw an object wrapped in a white cloth, there was a red spot that clearly showed what. While the old man who had only seen and grimaced since then was gone, did not intend to follow bullying with young people like them.

“Do as you like, I'm tired of responding to you.”

And the cloth that wrapped the thing then rolled, opening itself. Show what's inside. Then, Orion was silent with wide-eyed surprise.

“How? You remember, right? Who is this?” Jinan chuckled while pointing at that.

It was the hand piece of someone who was in the cloth package. Who would have thought that the hand was the hand of someone he knew.

“Well, he's so stupid. He said he was traumatized by the dark room, so faced with such a thing he would surely scream loudly like crazy,”.

“I feel so sorry for him. But he got away, didn't he?” ask Sera.

The hands of the young man, belonging to one of the NED members who joined unofficially. Regarded as the City Hero, the strongest NED before Gista, Endaru.

“Endaru?”

Orion's eyes grew shocked in disbelief. The piece of hand was real and was in plain sight. It was near her and she could see it clearly.

“Hey, you recognize that hand, right? He's so stupid. Though it has been helped by you but who would have thought he would come back to fight us again. And look now,” Jinan said as he rolled his hand closer to Orion.

“Oh, yes. I forgot to tell you one thing. The bracelet that ties your wrist, doesn't it hurt? Yeah, obviously! Because the bracelet will react when you approach your former friend, no exception with the body piece!”

Jinan raised his voice intentionally, angering Orion even more. As Jinan said, now Orion's wrist is depressed because of the bracelet that binds him to make him hurt. It feels like Orion's hand is coming off.

“Do not die,” said Sera commemorating Jinan.

“Ya, yes. I already know. Iki also gave me a message like that,” Jinan said.

“Argh! The insolent! How dare you guys ..!”

His hands trembled and continued to squeeze his blood and strength. The frown on his forehead was growing, as was the bubbling feeling of anger. He continued to groan in pain and grit his molars.

Orion has exhausted his patience but he still remembers for what and gives up what to keep himself quiet and inedible with emotions. Also, if Oriok acts by attacking Jinan especially then the problem will become even more complicated. Orion would not, if his efforts would be ruined just because of this, in an instant.

“Come! Get angry! Angry, right? You must be so angry, seeing the boy who already thinks of you as Dad? Uh! Daddy's? Daddy's? He'll call you! Orion!”

“Brengs*k! Young people like you are a bitch. You guys intend to make me angry? Ha?” he said with his eyebrows twitching as he smiled.

There is no doubt.

There is no patience.

Nothing just to survive. Everyone, it's out of control.

BLAR!

The dripping blood turned into fire, first from one side of his hand to grab onto his face. Half of the human form was skinned like a normal person while half of his form that was burned by fire only saw his skeletal skeleton.

“Ho, is he going against us? Then–”

Jinan was endless mocking, it really upset him so Orion could not hold himself back anymore. Before Jinan said another mockery, Orion silenced him and burned Jinan's face without caring what would happen.

What do you think happened?

“Hey, stop him!” exclaim Sera.

“You mean me?” asked Caraka who refused to approach because she knew very well how dangerous the Eternal Flame was.

Jinan will definitely die, back to his burrow. But Orion will not make someone who has dared to hurt a colleague or someone who is considered a child himself, die easily.

“You think I'll let you, Jinan? You can berate me, even if you want my right hand, then take it. But why did you touch my son!”

“Ck, you old man! You—”

Once again the fire snatched into his face, Jinan had trouble breathing while Sera had trouble stopping Orion let alone Caraka whose cowardly nature had existed since birth.

“Remember this, Jinan. Even if you repay my actions by hurting others, I will hunt you down until you return to your burrow.”

The blame seemed to be the strongest threat from him. Jinan trembled, it was so scared when if Orion would do anything more than burn his face right now.

Sera who panicked then dragged the hand of Orion who was currently gripping Jinan's face just no longer dare to oppose Orion anymore, because his hands are easily hot and it will burn when still desperate to save Jinan.

“Cast based! Hey, get your hands off! You want to die huh huh?!”

“It's your own fault isn't it? You're teasing something you shouldn't be nosy about. It's lucky you're alive, but listen, I don't mind dying myself. And the reason I'm holding on right now is for something ...,”

Orion slowly released his grip on Jinan's face which was now completely burned in half in his mouth and nose.

“My role is quite big but my anger is difficult to hold even if only for a moment. Don't forget, you're the one who made me like this,” continued Orion.

“Fuck with it! Why do you think we attacked the City Hero? He's definitely an enemy, right?”

“Enemy? Who has escaped the battlefield, still you call the enemy? So that's why you cut off his hand just like a big-ass there?” he said Orion while pointing at Jinan who could not make a sound now and just stared intently at him.

“Cih, old man s*alan.”

There's no point in cursing.

Orion's explosive attack would immediately destroy this high floor. The rest depends on those who intend to quell their anger or not.

But, it doesn't seem to exist.

The fast rolling time seems to slow down, the seconds on the needle move in rhythm but it feels like being held back by fog at night.

Fires were running rampant around his body which was sitting in the corner of the room. His same burning back was now beginning to melt the thick walls as if it were just a piece of paper.

Blood continued to pour out nonstop in the area of both of his wrists. Pain will never be heard because it has been swallowed by the fire of anger.

“Do not force your luck! Without Chameleon or Eternal Flame, you are dead!!”

Cruakk!

Sera's claws slashed sadistically at the front of Orion's body, risking his claws to injure. Then followed by an attack by Caraka with a physical weapon hit the lower abdomen to his left, it makes Orion vomit fresh blood.

Including a valuable vital point, if the bleeding is not stopped immediately then he will die. But the movement was locked by steel threads that should have melted because of the embers, but as if this thread belonging to Jinan had just been forged so it was getting stronger.

“Argh!”

A groan of pain escaped his mouth. The pain that piled, repeatedly made the embers become uncontrollable until finally exploded.

Dar!

Like the breath of fire of a dragon, the burst of fire broke the neat room into a mess with the remnants that were no longer formed.

***

In the dark streets, Endaru is currently trying to walk quickly. His eyes widened, it was seen that he was still in shock because of the previous incident. He might also forget what had happened to his hand at this time.
