With Daniel's intervention, the quiet crawling kid quickly started to recover
The broken bones began toeye bulb was pulled back into the dirty orbit, as the swollen eyelids went back to normal, and the filth was pushed out of it The multiple stab on his small body rapidly closed, and the cause of the kid's quietness, his broken windpipe, quickly repaired
At the same time, as the older kid recovered, Daniel enveloped the corpse of the younger sibling with his immortal essence, and quickly washed it of all of the blood and dirt of which he was covered He thenthe two sides of the wounds closer, and burned the skin just enough for the this, Daniel did not wish for the older brother to see the state his younger brother was in, so he did all he could tohis body, as well as the surroundings ground as a form of respect
When the kid woke up a ht with anxiousness Only stopping after noticing the s over an out-of-place stony platfor out a noise, he iently pressed his head over hischest Allowing two tears to stream from the inner corners of his eyes, and over the lifeless body
Seeing how desperately the kid was crying, and yet not
At first he had believed him to be unable to talk si the violent beating that had caused his previous state, and killed his younger brother, but now that he had repaired it with healing essence, the kid was still unable to talk That could only in with He wasa sad detail to an already devastating mo, and broke it in between his fingertips
The very next moment, Aeron appeared next to him
The instant Aeron appeared, a hundred tons of weight landed heavily upon his heart It didn't take long for him to notice as in front of him
”Cancel his memory” Daniel said with a thread of sound essence He couldn't bear to watch the kid cry over his brother's corpse anymore He couldn't help but see he and his sister in that situation How easily he could have been that kid lying on the cold rock Or worse, the kid crying over his deceased sibling
Aeron looked at the two kids from behind his mask And after what felt like a full minute but was just a couple of seconds, he said ”I can't do that Unless you want iving Daniel a choice, from his tone, it was clear that there was no way that he would do that even if he asked
At this point, nobody could understand the kid's sufferingsthe entirety of the kid's pain, had also traveled through his memories
What he had discovered, was that the two kids were part of a noble family of inventors, and that the last of the inventions that their parents had created, had angered an organization called 'The Underground Tinkers', which were known for owning certain services, and forcing people to pay for their use, as well as having a history of stealing multiple inventions just so that they could pass thes that would co the patent
He could see a few memories where the kid's parents did all they could to keep their projects hidden, and once completed, they had sent the invention away to a person to which they had the utmost trust in No one was supposed to know of their product, and yet, this secrecy was not able to keep the wolves out of the door
Just three days before, the kids had co from their necks in their laboratory At their feet, was a suicide letter that, along with a nonesensical reason for their 'suicide', also hid a code which only the oldest of the couple's two sons could understand What it said, was simply one word 'Hide'
Before they could even cry for their parents, the oldest of the two kids had taken his younger brother, and escaped through the dark alleys of the city Minutes before Daniel found them, just as they had started to think that they were out of danger, the oldest of the two had used the ki flag that their father had given hi had happened to them
Hopeful that help would arrive soon, the two kids waited in the darkest halley they had found Until a group of individuals approached the memories were hard to witness even for an old and experienced being like Aeron Which skipped the part where the two kids were stabbed, beaten, and left for dead in a filthy alley
After hearing Aeron's answer, Daniel turned to look at hi expression and said ”Please Look at him You ha-” but his words were interrupted by the sound of Aeron's tears, and the droplets of blood dripping down his chin and injured hands, as his fingernais dug past his skin and flesh And hit thethat Aeron did not need Daniel to re And yet, he could not take away the uish the spark of hate and thirst for vengeance that was shi+ning bright into his exausted, and young mind
While an individual that had never lost somebody close would never be able to understand the depths of that sort of pain, the same wasn't for Aeron He had lostany of his own Lost , abusive, and distant parents who wives, dear friends, siblings, soulmates he
Daniel, on the other hand, could only feel co the third person would allow him to feel So he asked ”What did you see?” to which Aeron responded by placing a hand on his wrist, and helping hih the kid's memories
A few seconds later, a vicious expression appeared on Daniel's face An expression that if his enemies could have seen, would have caused them to step back in fear
A faint layer of spatial essence covered him as he prepared himself to teleport, but his hts that shone fronized the individuals that had attacked the two kids He had seen them in this very alley, minutes before he found them He could still feel their presence a couple of kilometers away, and he wanted to teleport next to them, and tear their bodies into pieces, devour their minds, and force them to s each other's hearts, but he was stopped by Aeron, which had used a massive amount of mental power to placate his thirst for blood
