Chapter 142: Killing Terron
"Silva, isn't this too harsh? That man is your father, after all," Aaron said.
"Father? No, that's not true. He's a sperm donor, sure, but he isn't my father. And living in a world where I biologically resemble this man sounds like hell.
Therefore, I'll do what needs to be done and get rid of him now," Silva said.
Aaron could tell that nothing he did would change Silva's mind, so he let it be. He felt all this was extreme, but it seemed like the best option at this point.
"So, how do you ensure none of them will go outside the script?" Leah asked.
"Simple. I use a dark curse on them, and the day they think of spilling the truth, their heads will explode into a fine paste, and their souls will be trapped in a void for all eternity with no hope of rebirth," Silva responded.
Leah knew that Silva was a decisive guy, but today she realized he could also be very brutal and emotionless.
"Leah, Aaron, there's a lot you want to know, and I'll tell you, but for now, we have to finish up the labyrinth competition. The others must be waiting for us.
I'll have Lily get our captives ready for when the plan kicks in, but we should get going," he said, and Elsa opened a portal for him.
"Let's go," he said to Leah and Aaron. They both nodded and headed into the portal to the labyrinth.
When they arrived back in the labyrinth, Silva started sensing around for the rest of the team, and luckily they were still on the fifth floor, looking for them.
Silva led the way, and soon they found each other.
"You guys were gone quite a bit. We began to think you had gone to the lower floors," Michael said.
"No, we just kept looking for Oliver, but we couldn't find him," Silva explained.
"We don't have to worry about my brother. There are very few things in this labyrinth that can pose a threat to him. We should keep going," Safa said.
They all agreed and started heading into the labyrinth to finish the competition. The whole twenty floors became a walk in the park for Silva and the group, and they finished in record time.
They got to the last floor and killed the wolf beast that was there as the final boss. Silva simply one-shot the wolf.
After they used the teleportation stone inside, they were sent to the surface and reported to a teacher what had happened to Oliver.
The teacher told them they would head in and take a look at what happened to ensure Oliver's safety.
"So, are we heading back to the academy?" Michael asked.
"I have something to do. You all can leave without me; I'll be back," Silva said as he turned in another direction and left.
Leah and Aaron watched him go and knew that it was to the labyrinth he was headed; he wanted to go and finish what he had started.

When Silva arrived at the labyrinth, all of the captives had been healed up completely. They were chained down in the throne room.
"Alright, now to begin. We have to kill Terron, and the way to do that will be to first poison him. This poison will weaken his magic to a level where even the prince can kill him," Silva said.
"Silva, don't do this. I am your father. Please, I know I've been wrong to you, but find a place in your heart to forgive me," Terron cried out.
"Sorry, Terron, I am a dragon, and dragons have no pity for useless beings like humans, especially those that overestimate themselves.
You should have never tried to kill me. I was barely leaving you alive, but you forgot that I have your life in my hands.
Today, we end what is known as you; your memory will fade into the void," Silva said.
"Lily, the poison, give it to him," Silva ordered. She nodded and immediately administered the poison through his skin, forcefully pushing it through the pores, causing Terron a lot of pain and making him scream.
Silva, on the other hand, walked over to the prince.
"You met me one day and decided that you wanted to capture me. Who does that? Who the hell do you think you are to attempt to capture me?
Because your father sits on the throne? A throne that I could remove him from if I so wish. Once upon a time, I was under the government of you and your father.
But now, I have grown past that level; you are just the sand beneath me that I walk on. You don't qualify to be a threat to me."
"Stop this, please, Silva. It may not be too late," Alvin tried to persuade him.
"Seriously? Are you dumb? Do you think you have some sort of upper hand somewhere? Do you think the empire will chase me, or the holy kingdom will attack me for your sake?
Those are the only human powers that threaten me, but your small, worthless country is nothing but waste, and I can do whatever I want."
Silva placed his hand on Alvin's head and forced a dark curse on him. Alvin could feel as if there was a chain wrapped around his heart, the information of the curse filled his head, and he knew what to do and when to do it.
Silva took an average sword, freed the chains on Alvin, and handed him the sword. Then he went on to loosen the chains on Terron, who was already getting weaker by the moment.
Immediately after he freed them, he looked at Alvin. "Fight and kill Terron here and now."
Alvin looked reluctant, but he had no choice; it was his life and soul versus Terron's life.
"I am sorry, Sir Terron," he said and charged at Terron. Terron was weak and dizzy, but he still tried to react, pointing his hand and casting a little lightning bolt.
Alvin's sword glowed brightly, and he used it to deflect the lightning. Now that Terron was no longer at full strength, Alvin could take the attacks and deflect them.
He got in close range before Terron could cast another spell and slashed Terron across the chest, leaving a deep gash and blood spilling around.
Terron fell to the ground in pain, and Alvin stood over him and stabbed through his chest without hesitation, killing Terron.
Matilda and the president watched in shock, but Oliver began lashing out and screaming.
"You bastard! How could you!"
Silva walked over to his brother and gave him a clean slap across the face.
"Are you dumb? Do you think we are here to play? There is no moral conduct; my word is law here. Boohoo, your father died in front of you, cry me a river.
That filthy man had no right to walk this world I am on, and as for you, I have not killed you because, well, you are a stupid kid easily swayed by rubbish, and you lack the brains to think things through for yourself," Silva said, breaking Oliver down with every word.
Silva went ahead to use the dark curse on all of them, and after that came the interesting part.
"Now, I'll teleport all of you to the locations you need to be. First location: Matilda's office, where she is hiding behind the secret wall and watching Terron get killed.
The guards and knights are on the way to your office now because they believe they received a crystal call from you, Matilda, from behind the wall.
They will burst in and capture the prince immediately. Oliver will be too scared to run, and President, you will jump out the window and run, and they will chase and catch you.
I aim to make it an authentic scene, so follow your lines, or you will die," Silva explained, and they were teleported from there right into the office.
Alvin laid down Terron's body and held the sword over him. Matilda hid behind the wall, and the president and Oliver just stood.
After a while, the guards broke through the door and tackled the prince. Everyone did as they were told and acted their part, with the president reluctantly jumping out of the window.
But then he started trying to really get away, but the dark curse kicked in and caused his heart to feel like it would explode; he fell to the ground, unable to move.
The guards gathered around him and arrested him, carrying him back to the academy.
The news reached the whole academy in a few minutes, as only the first years were out today for their competition, so the other students were around to witness this.
Silva, who was hidden and watching the whole thing, had a smile on his face. At least he was a little bit soft on all of them and only killed Terron.
