Chapter 113 Aslan's/Luke's Pov
On a dark gloomy night when the rain was heavy like threads emanating from the sky there I was standing, dripping as I looked at the scene in front of me with eyes wide open in shock unable even to feel the thick drops of rain that were constantly hitting my body
The simple wooden houses and the wide streets were all stained with huge amounts of blood that even this abundant water could not wash away. Hundreds of corpses, indicating different sizes and shapes, were spread everywhere, and there, in the middle of this massacre square, there was a tall figure standing in dead silence, with a fierce and frightening aura surrounding him, standing there motionless looking in the opposite direction from where we were, I looked at this figure with running through my entire body before opening my trembling lips, "F-Fr…."
"Oh!! My God...."
"Fray!! What have you done?"
"You!!..."
Before I could finish my trembling words, I suddenly heard two voices shouting behind my back voices filled with anger, despair, and disbelief.
The tall figure slowly turned towards us revealing the cold, fierce and angry look that was in his eyes. Just looking into his eyes, I felt my legs becoming weak, "F-Fray…"
"You..." The figure said with a cold voice as he looked in our direction, then without forewarning, rushed towards us with great speed as his aura became even more ferocious.
"Noooo…" I yelled loudly before opening my eyes, waking up with a face covered in sweat while I was breathing deeply "Uh, uh, uh, …damn" I murmured as I looked at my hands Still shaking vigorously.
I fell back on the pillow, I looked at the chandelier decorated with many rare jewels hanging on the ceiling, As I was thinking (The nightmares became more intense after I met him again)
"Was he really being honest when he said he wasn't interested in that heritage? It didn't seem like he was lying but if it was true then why did he do such brutal did that time?" muttered in a low voice
Wof
Suddenly the door of the room opened, and there was a girl with a pretty face and untidy red hair wearing delicate pajamas standing there with a worried expression on her face.
The red-haired girl looked around the room anxiously before looking at me and asking, "I heard screaming, are you okay?"
"Yes, I'm fine, don't worry," I said calmly as I sat quietly on the bed
"Is it that nightmare again?" Lisa asked in a sympathetic voice as she sat beside me on the bed.
"Sigh, yes, it's the same nightmare," I replied in a low voice as I looked at the chandelier once again, and said with a deep expression, "Do you think Fray was telling the truth that day?"
"You know Fray better than I do. I don't think he will lie about such things, but if he's right, that means..." Lisa said with a complicated look on her face.
" That person lied to us," I said in a low voice with a complicated expression on my face.
"Well who cares, Fray did what he did and nothing is going to change that," said Lisa in a disinterested voice as she got out of bed. "Let's go downstairs to have breakfast."
(Still acting indifferent as usual) I thought looking at Lisa before asking, "Do you know where Luke is?"
"I'm not sure, but he's probably training again," said Lisa, " it seems he's also a bit disturbed after meeting Fray."

With terrifying speed, Luke unleashed hundreds of moves, defying the laws of physics, with a heavy iron sword, releasing strong airwaves that shook the space with a sweaty face and turbulent breathing.

It had already been more than three hours since Luke had started training intensely. He had already reached his limits, but with so many complex thoughts filling his mind, Luke Finds it difficult to allow himself to rest.
He is feeling as if all his plans and expectations are falling apart. He was always confident of himself, confident that everything would turn out in his favor sooner or later, but recently he began to feel that he was rapidly losing control of his plans and it was all because of Fray
Since Luke met Fray for the first time, he has subconsciously known that this person is very dangerous and perhaps even evil, but after a series of unaccounted events, Luke and Fray unexpectedly became friends that's when things became very complicated, but as much as he wanted to keep this friendship, he knew that this was impossible for many reasons
And as he expected, the day came when Luke's expectations became true as his friendship with Fray turned to enmity, which made Luke realize that he needed to take many precautions to suppress Fray when needed.
After more than a year had passed since the breakup of the relationship between the Friends, and after Luke was almost certain that he would be able to stop Fray when it was necessary, Luke's plans began to gradually collapse, which made him feel as if he was helpless.
First, he lost contact with Erma Fray's sister and a beautiful girl that Luke was really interested in, Erma was sending Luke some inside information about Fray and the Parada family for a long time in an attempt to watch Fray's movement. Luke knows Fray so well he is sure that if he found out about Erma he would undoubtedly kill her regardless of the fact that she's his sister, and since he lost contact with her, Luke couldn't help but think the worst
And even one of his best friends, Ron, who Luke just recently sent to Iskar city to carry out a special mission there, also cut off contact with Luke in a very odd way as soon as he reach the waters of Iskar city.
Just the thought of these two getting into trouble makes Luke feel indescribably guilty and sad, after all, it was he who got them into such a dangerous situation.
If Fray really did kill Ron and Erma-if he really was behind the massacre that wreaked on the villages near Iskar city- if all of the Parada family's strange movements were just preparations for something evil... There are plenty of *IFs* (reasons) that make Luke almost certain he will. Sooner or later, have to confront Fray as enemies again, and according to what he saw in that royal party, Luke became afraid that he would be on the losing side in this confrontation if he did not get a lot stronger and as soon as possible.

With his heart beating at a terrifying speed, Luke gritted his teeth and continued to launch crushing attacks with the cold sweat on his body splattering in the air.
