Chapter 118: cloaked man
Silva and Aris talked to themselves for a while, and Silva got to know her better.
She was over hundreds of years old, but she engaged in battle with a hero once upon a time, and that severely injured her.
So, she went into hiding for many years and only woke up recently.
Silva was shocked when she explained the fight to him because the hero she fought was one of the weakest, according to her.
Yet that hero had easily injured her, and Aris was unable to put up a fight. All she could do was run.
This gave Silva a small gauge of the strength of the heroes. He had to get stronger because he was certain that a clash was inevitable.
After getting to know Aris, he left her to Elsa and the guardians. Aris had taken a liking to Elsa and started treating her like a younger sister.
And, of course, Elsa loved it. Silva had come to understand that Elsa just loved attention.
Silva left the labyrinth after that. It was getting dark, and he had made a promise to Roxy. He quickly got to his house and cleaned up.
He left his room to see Lia standing outside his door. She looked at him, like she was scanning him, and then spoke.
"You are going for the date with Roxy?" she asked.
"Yes, I promised her," Silva said.
She looked at him and pouted, "Then promise me that when we are back at the academy, you'll take me out on a date as well," she said.
Silva didn't see an issue with that, so he agreed immediately.
She let him go. He left the house and headed for Roxy's house.
---
Silva and Roxy headed to a restaurant for dinner first, but as soon as Silva placed his hand on the door, he felt something strange behind him.
He turned around and saw a black portal; a seven-foot abomination was stepping out of it, about to attack Roxy.
Silva flash-stepped and took her out of the way, while sending a kick to the head of the abomination and killing it immediately.
He dropped her down carefully, his eyes still trained on the portal, but then Roxy started tapping him. When he looked at her, he saw her pointing.
So he looked and saw more than twenty portals opening all over.
Silva was not someone that could be frozen in shock because he had enough minds to quickly analyze things.
"Roxy, sorry, but our date will be called off. Head to Quin and tell him. Gather your party and fight." Silva said and charged in the direction of the abominations that were coming out of the portal.
He didn't even draw his sword. He leaped into the air and pointed his hands down, firing a thick stream of abyss flames.
The abominations screamed in pain as their physical bodies and souls were being torched.
Silva then took out his sword and started slashing, shooting out dark blade arcs, finishing off the abominations.
He landed on the ground, but he couldn't rest as more portals had started forming, and for some reason, the abominations had taken him as their main enemy, and most of them were headed for him.
Silva looked at the horde headed his way and realized something. Many of the abominations running towards him were once humans.
He could still see their features a little, and he could tell. It was rare to hear about human-based abominations unless they were created.
Someone had used these humans to make abominations. Not that it mattered to Silva, he would cut them all down the same.
When the largest abomination got to him, it swung its hand. Silva blocked the attack with his sword, but he had to leap back as another abomination tried to get him while he was focused on the first one.
He pushed off the ground as soon as he landed, getting as high as the one that had just attacked him, then he slashed out a dark blade arc and decapitated it.
Immediately he landed back again, he was surrounded by more abominations. He thought about ending this fast.
But then the thought of trying out his swordplay and martial arts filled his head.
An abomination attacked fiercely, and Silva parried the attack, but still allowed himself to turn quickly.

He turned very fast and his sword cut through the stomach of the abomination. He grabbed hold of the body immediately and chucked it at some abominations.
Silva moved faster, dodging attacks and cutting down abominations, regardless of what race they were before.
But such a waste of time was too much, because the town had now entered an uproar and was fighting against the abominations.
He looked over towards his house's direction, and he could see smoke. Something was up, and he needed to find out.
He decided to charge through the abominations and kill all of them. His movements became way faster, and he started one-hit killing them all.
"I have to be faster," Silva said.
He ran as fast as he could, but the constant fights on the way there slowed him down more.
"This is definitely the plan of someone, so many abominations. What am I even saying, of course someone is the cause of this, the abominations are appearing through portals.
And they can't build or create anything, so someone is definitely behind it." Silva set his mind straight and ran fast through a dark alley to get there faster.
But then, in the alley, the cloaked man appeared. He was that person from the Dark Blade.
He was the man that knew how to turn people into abominations. It all made sense for this man to be the one causing this.
Silva should have known that this man would certainly be back.
The cloaked man faced Silva but refused to show his face, as expected.
"We meet again, Silva Teron, the prodigy of the Duke that got missing," the cloaked man said.
