Chapter 390: " You died in vain." (1/2)
”I.... will... le....” Orion wanted to eat his tongue off to keep him from saying what he needed to at this moment.
”He's alive, my love!” A beautiful voice reached Orion's ears. He would know this familiar voice amongst a trillion peoples. It brought him peace. The bearer of his heart, Elise.
”HAHAHAHAHA!”
The lady frowned at the sudden change. Her divine sense soared and what she saw birthed flames of fury on her eyes.
”Whoooshhhhhh!” The chambers embraced nihility with the sudden departure of the furious woman
”Hahahahahahaha!”
Orion's booming laughter continued unabated even if the radius around him turned to powdery residues.
”Nice try, mother!”
”Hahahahahaha!”
His mirth reached the heavens and he totally cherished this moment. It was one of his rare victories against one who brought him out to this world
”A dragon won't birth an ant!”
”Hahahahaha!” Orions laughter echoed throughout the entire day even after he had long carried the little babe on his arms.

”What is your choice, Silva?” A lovely woman asked a boy about ten years old. He was tall for his age and the resemblance to his father was unmistakable.
She could see her beloved husband in her son's mien from a time already forgotten.
”The Death Devourers Sect.” The boy answered the woman.
”What?! Why pick an evil sect, Silva?! The Eternal Buddha Sect or the Divine Conquerors Sect would have been a better choice.” Elise was alarmed with the unexpected choice of her son.
If only her husband has not left his clan, then Silva would have all the resources he'd need for cultivation
”You dare question me, woman!” Silva had wanted to say but kept the words hidden beneath a pure innocent smile that brightened his face.
”I'm sure about this mother. I read that the Death Devourers Sect is feared for their myriad ways of combat.” Silva beamed towards his mother
”But… but… Those are...”
”Cowardly and nefarious means, my love?”
”HAHAHA!” Orion who was content on listening uttered his first words.
”Why are you laughing?! This is serious! I heard that that wicked sect would eat their initiates body parts as punishments!” Elise knew this to be true.
She had seen members of the Death Devourers Sect with missing limbs on their bodies.
”Are you sure about this, Silva?” Orion did not give a reply to the fuming woman but merely raised his head to look at his son's eyes.
”Yes I am, father.” Silva answered solemnly and returned the hard stare with one of his own.
”I have raised you well my son and has imparted all you needed to know about this world. This is not a haven for the weak.” Orion paused and gazed at his wife Elise who had wanted to interrupt.
Her words vanished after she saw the serious expression on her husband's face. They had been together a long time and she knew that now was not her turn to contradict his words.
