Chapter 1 | GREY VRITRA|

Grey Vritra's POV:

The sounds of the steps behind me began to get closer little by little, I turned and met my eyes caught a crimson glowing eyes. my voice came out quietly "Did you finished them?"

"Yes, did you finish his interrogation? "Questing as he looked with curiosity behind me, I looked back at the person who met me.

He was constrained by my magic and in miserable condition, dark chains squeezed his body until his blood did not have the chance to reach the restricted parts, I spoke, "He is a little stubborn but I am able to break him."

I started strengthening the black chains began to glow red hot, his cries began to come back as his skin start sizzling and popping and filling the cave with the stench of burning flesh. his pleas began to fill the cave but I knew it wasn't enough, I did not want to use this ability but he pushed me that far.

I liberated my magic a little and the fog seemed to appear to create an illusion and deceive his mind, the magical abilities in this world were really charming, I was able to do things that contradict logic using mana and its many and huge abilities "Oh Your Majesty excuse me for my rudeness" The magician spoke with a smile of appreciation and respect.

"Remind me again what task I assigned you to?" I asked with enthusiasm and hastiness " To led a reconnaissance squad to get information about the other continent, " he said. I replied a few moments later."well done"

Whatever , A blood iron spike manifested from the shadows beneath the man I have been interrogating and sank into the man's chest. I released him from my chains as His eyes bulged madly while he clawed at the spike, but his movements quickly became lethargic, and within seconds his limp body sagged, his blood running along the smooth black metal in little rivers before dripping to the damp floor.

I turned to face Cadell as I drew closer to him."Our mission is over, we need to hand over the report to Lord Agrona." I said while he responded with a nod.

While I walked behind I began to his gray skin harmonized with his body creating a strong aura around him, and with the road he carried himself it was just a proof of his strength, but what makes him closer to a monster are characteristics of the scarlet-eye Vritra with the terrifying set of horns that come out of his head.

I still remember our first encounter, when I thought it was one of the monsters sponsored by Agrona, but after Agrona's introduction I realized that he was one of Agrona's experiments to crossbreed humans, and he was one of the greatest warriors just under the Asuras.

The afternoon sun penetrated the entrance to the cave, causing me out of my thoughts, echoing the sound of our steps until we came out of the cave, while a golden and warm rays began to caresss our bodies.

Cadell turned to me "Better ..." I didn't let him finish his sentence as I started flying towards Agrona's Castle.

********

Perhaps the ability to fly is one of the few beautiful things I have since I was brought to this world, the feeling of the mana lifting you and also this strong feeling of being able to use all that force that exists in our surroundings makes me despise my former self.

Unlike my previous world, the power in this world was divided into two parts: mana and aether, but I didn't have the ability to use aether since I am not a dragon or a Djinn, but mana was a good compensation, as it was present in every place and had different, multiple and real natures as well.

The ki arts in my former world were not real elements, but just ways to shape the ki; explosive ki arts was considered the fiery arts of ki, making the blade sharp was the ki arts for wind, and there are the ki arts of water and earth, but they are limited to our bodies and cannot be formed outside them. It also didn't exist in the surroundings.
