Sinister Knight: Dawn Of A Sinful Calamity

"Why should I help her, it's not like her life or death affects me.."

Blake had asked himself this question with a laxness, but then seconds later the decision on whether to save Lena or not was taken out of his hands as the door of the carriage was opened and a man with his head bent, placed one leg in the carriage wanting to climb in.

Having not expected anyone to be in the carriage considering how Lena had been screaming and no one had come out when the man saw a young man calmly sitting inside it, he was surprised, and he opened his mouth to quickly call his colleagues but the young man's left leg was faster as in the blink of eye it shot out and smashed into his chest, sending him flying away from the carriage.

"Hmm, these guys must be quite weak," Blake thought as he considered the ease with which he had sent his opponent flying away.

"Well, it was also a very hard kick, I did transfer a bit of frustration to it" Blake thought as he stood up and exited the carriage.

"If you move, she dies" were the words spoken to Blake just as his feet touched the ground"

"And why should I care if she dies, I would have let you guys carry on with your business if you had not chosen to bother me," Blake said with a shake of his head as he calmly moved forward.

"I said don't move" the man roared as he reached for his waist and pulled out a knife and then without hesitation stabbed it at Lena's right hand, or at least tried to, because just as he raised the blade, a hand caught his wrist.

"What the" the man with the bandana exclaimed unable to finish his words as he looked to his right and found Blake silently standing beside him and holding onto his hands.

"Guys, he's over here" the man roared out to his teammates but then he heard them let out various shouts and when he looked in their direction, he saw them run towards the carriage and then suddenly start attacking the empty space in front of it.

Looking at the bizarre scenario, the man with the bandana quickly turned back to Blake in confusion and fright.

"Let me go or I'll kill her," the man said with a trembling voice, he himself unable to believe his own words.

Staring at the man with a bit of bore, Blake tightened his grip on the man's wrist and then without warning, he pulled his wrist backwards while his left arm hit his upper arm forward, the result of this series of actions being a scream as the man's ankle was broken, his forearm twisted in the wrong direction.

As he clutched his right arm with his left arm in anguish, the man freed Lena and Blake seeing no reason to extend the situation, punched him straight and hard on the neck directly on his Juglar and then paid no further attention to his body which stumbled backwards and collapsed to the ground.

"Hmm, his scream didn't break them out of the illusion, their will must be really low or they're just plain stupid," Blake muttered rubbing his chin as he watched 4 men push their selves to the limit trying to kill a man whom only then could see, a man who didn't exist.

"What is wrong with them" Lena asked moving to Blake's side and standing behind him.

"I poisoned them with some hallucinating gas" Blake answered still watching the four men.

"Well, they had better be careful with their attacks and not kill the horses, we need them to get out of here, Felix had us riding deep into nowhere for several hours we are probably in another region.

"Really, since when did the horses become important to you, you seemed quite comfortable using your legs to run away" Blake commented and not waiting for a reply from Lena he began walking towards the 4 men, bending down along the way to pick the sword Felix had given him, and then seconds later he was cleaning the blood off the four idiots he had just massacred.

"They couldn't even sense that they were about to die, this illusion technique is really good" Blake muttered.

"Blake, carry Felix's body and place it in the carriage and then drive us to the nearest town" the only female in the vicinity ordered.

"Pausing in his work, Blake looked towards Lena who was staring at him with her hands on her hips and then he silently looked back to the weapon in his hand.

"Blake, I just gave you an order, did you not hear me" Lena shouted once more, but this time Blake paid her no mind and infuriated by this behaviour, Lena marched up to him.

"I don't know what has gotten into you or who you now think you are, but I want to remind you that you are a lowly commoner and you serve me, you might have been uplifted to the status of a knight, but that privilege was given to you only by the grace of my existence.

You are my knight and I am your lady and you will do as I say"

From last night till this moment, Blake had gotten a well-deserved break from Lena's high-pitched voice, but this time, when the woman scrammed at him, rather than be annoyed and irritated, Blake instead calmly inserted the sword in his hand into the ground and then turned to her.

In his previous life, when Blake had become burned and turned into a monster, seeing himself unable to get emotional about people's words and unable to feel empathy for them, Blake thought his heart had turned to stone, that his soul had become cold and empty, but now he understood that what had truly happened to him back then was that he was drowned in despair.

Blake had lost all sight of hope and given up on the world, he had already assigned his existence to be that of a loser, but now after he heard Lena's words and felt a bit of irritation in his heart at her ignorance, a smile came to his face.

"There isn't like before Blake, there is a light at the end of the tunnel and no matter how far that light is, you will reach it.

No matter what I will bring back Mom and Dad, and if having a lot of evil fun is going to help me get the job done, then with wide arms I am going to embrace it."
