I Can Copy Curses

"In the end, I became the biggest threat to the Montreux Universe and the Celestial God himself had to descend and kill me. But before my death or so I thought, he told me the reason why people wanted to kill me. It was just because I was born as a demigod—a forbidden existence unacceptable in the whole universe—a spawn between a Title God and a lower race being as a human."

He patted Orion's head as he looked at him with pity.

"As for you, you are still young—you haven't experienced the cruelness of this world. So, become strong—become stronger real quick for you never know when the world may turn against you."

As he said that, he stabbed his hand in Orion's stomach and took something out of there. It was the core of fate.

"I will be borrowing this for a while."

However, as soon as he took the fate core out of Orion, his eyes became lifeless and he died on the spot but since time was still frozen, he remained in the same position as earlier, with his fist striking forward.

Though his clone was not. If one were to see carefully and focus, one could see clone was turning into dust—it was very slow, and one wouldn't be able to notice that in the frozen state they were in.

As for the ragged-clothed man, he nodded affirmatively to the notification, wanting to assimilate the fate core.

And as he did that, his fate core shone with a red light before it went inside him.

"This fate core is indeed very strong! It instantly made me reach my peak."

With that, the chains binding him began to break little by little until all the chains shattered and he became free.

"I am free but what should I do now?"

He frowned. He really didn't like being a pawn in someone's plot but at the current moment, he was surely dancing in the hands of the Celestial God.

At that moment, as if sensing something, he suddenly turned to look at the sky.

"Someone found the entrance to the Null Void."

He muttered when he saw that a crack appeared in the sky and a man in golden hair walked in. It was none other than Sword Sage—Kane Maximus.

Arriving in the grey world, his attention was immediately drawn to the ragged-clothed man, for he felt an aura he had never felt before in his life but strangely enough, he also felt something inside him detest this man—something inside him felt intense disgust towards his very existence.

"Who are you?" He asked with a frown. He hadn't felt such peculiar emotions towards anyone before and this made him very wary of the human in front of him.

At the same time, he turned his eyes towards others and saw them frozen in time but seeing that his two little brothers and sisters, along with his student, were fine, he sighed in relief.

"They used to call me Azeron. I don't have a name," Azeron said to Kane.

"Azeron!"

Kane's eyes became narrow as slits and for a moment, he almost lost control as he heard this name.

"No, it's impossible. Azeron died, killed by the Celestial God himself."

Azeron smiled and said,

"That's what everyone believes in but your so-called celestial god is scheming something in the dark. He didn't kill me—the most wanted human who had killed countless Title Gods and kept me sealed in the Null Void."

Kane's frown deepened upon hearing his words. Although he had a hard time believing him, he couldn't ignore the constant disgust he was feeling towards him.

And knowing Azeron was somehow involved in this, he could tell why he was feeling so repulsed against him.

"You feel it, right? That's the bane of my existence—the curse of a demigod."

Azeron's voice reached Kane's ears and that made whatever doubts he had fade away.

"So, what are you going to do? I suppose you are here for these kids, right? Will you just take them and leave this place or will you fight me? What choice are you making?" Azeron asked and waited patiently.

Kane shook his head and said,

"I am not fighting you. Although you killed many, I care less about those from so long ago. But if you don't let me do what I want to do here, then my sword is always up."

Azeron nodded.

"You have made a smart choice; if you had decided to fight, you would be dead by now."

Kane narrowed his eyes. He didn't believe he was lying, for he knew Azeron had killed countless Title Gods and his strength, though it had reached its peak among the humans, wasn't comparable to that of a Title God, at least not yet.

"Alright, I will be taking them," he said.

Azeron shook his head and said,

"You don't need to. They will eventually be kicked out of this place. Though I must warn you, I wasn't the one who summoned them here, and there is someone else who is pulling behind the strings here. Be careful of this individual, for even I can't sense this guy in this place."

Kane nodded and just as he was about to say something, he found himself back in the barren lands.

Looking around, he noticed all the kids were back—all those who survived till now and that was only 5% of the entire crowd that was sent into the Null Void.

There were many royal family members and members from seven magi families were waiting for the kids. So, the moment they saw the kids were back, they immediately went to them and began to ask what happened while healing them at the same time.

But everyone failed to notice a shining red core falling from the sky—even Sword Sage wasn't able to see that. The core silently fell and went inside Orion's body.

"Agh!"

He immediately sat up after that and looked around.

"I am back."

Orion sighed in relief as he saw that. But soon he recalls some words he didn't remember hearing.

'Demigods? Hunted my humans? My Fate Core!'

He also remembered that man taking away his fate core and everything becoming black after that.

He immediately closed his eyes and saw that his fateful core was floating quietly in the abyss of darkness.

'It's still here.'

He sighed in relief, seeing that his fate was still in his body.

"Young Master Orion, are you okay?"

At that moment, Butler Rio arrived in front of him.

Orion nodded and said,

"I am fine."

He said that he turned around and saw that Dustin, Tray, and Lucy were injured. They were currently healed by the members of the family who had healing talents.

"Young Master, what happened out there?" Butler Rio asked.

Orion smiled wryly and said, "About that..."
