~Omni pov~
There was a long silence after Lilim's father statement which was broken by loud laughter that echoed all around from everyone.
"HAHAHAHHAHA"
The priest was also smiling but he wasn't smiling with his eyes, his eyes show quite an unhappy expression
"I see, I see, so this is what you meant, that those who are possessed are the playthings of the Holy Church and they're actually descendants of the great heroes. That's why there's no need to purify the filth, is that what you mean, Hahahaha" the head of the branch family spoke
"Don't be stupid" a man from the branch family said as he punched the father across the face, punch after punch.
With a bloody fist the man said "The shows over, where's the filthy one"
The father just had a smirk on his face as he said "I ain't saying a thing, even if I speak you'll just torture me and burn everything to the ground"
The man from the branch family pulled out his sword when he heard him.
"S-STOP IT" Lilim said with a shaky voice attracting everyone's attention
With shaky knees she stepped forward and stuttered "I...I...I...I'm the demon" she said with tears in her eyes as she shook violently
Her father then called out to her in a soft voice and said "Listen to me, The Golden Panther Clan are the descendants of the great hero lili, the one who saved the world
This family is a family with proud blood, why did lili give us stories of heroes? Did she just let the chieftains pass them down from generations to generations, there is a reason for that.
We have a misson."
"Father..." Lilim softly called out
"You have the blood of the hero in your veins stronger than anybody else. You are strong, wise, and proud daughter. Lilim go east, there is someone there that could cure your demonic possession. That's where our mission lies"
Her father seeing Lilim unsure of herself just gives her a reassuring smile "I'm sure if it's you, you can do it" the father then turned towards the mother and said
"Take care of them"
The mother then gave a small nod and pulled Lilim closer.
A beastkin close to them then said "You think I'll let them go"
"I'll make sure of it" the father said, the sound of something pulsing was soon heard and it was coming from the fathers body. A huge amount of magical energy then explodes from his body destroying his bindings.
"WHAT IS THAT POWER" someone from the branch family shouted
"The Golden Panther have thick beastial blood, I just manipulate them and freed them"
The father now looks more beast than man with his long Golden hair that's shape like a mane and hair growing everywhere
"This is a technique passed down only to the chief, a forbidden technique that can take ones life"
Blood was seen coming out of his eyes and veins. "GO AWAY!!!" he roared
Lilim's father stood infront of them protecting them after turning into a rampaging beast
"GO! RUN!" He shouted to them
"Father come with us!!!" Lilim quickly yelled towards her father
"I can't" he said
And when he turned around a look of shock was plastered on Lilim's face as her father soon had half his face turned into a complete beast
"I'll eventually become into a beast, before that happens..."
"I don't want to! Father!!!" Lilim tried to reach for her father's back but couldn't reach
The priest pulled out red colored chains and slashed it towards him.
"Gaaaaaahhhh!!!" The father then deflected it with his right arm
At that moment her mother picked her up and carried her away while she just screamed for her father.
"FATHER! NOOOOO!!!"
That was the last time Lilim saw her fathers back.
Her mother was soon carrying her through the forest
She didn't hear any footsteps for a while, luckily her mother was a master hider. However soon the presence of pursuers were faster approaching. Some members of the Gold Panther have special noses so they must have joined the pursuit as well.
Her mother then put her down near a river and said "Let's split up. Cross the river and head east while I go southeast"
And with that she put the little baby she was carrying with her onto her arms and said "Take care of your little brother, Lilim"
"I don't want to! I want to go with you mother"
"Don't be selfish, just have a little patience. We'll meet again at the Midgard kingdom." Said the mother as she gave Lilim a tight hug.
"Then... why did you give me my little brother?"
"Lilim... I can't fight, I can't run as well as you."
"You should be better off with me!" Lilim pleaded
"Lilim listen..."
"No!"
Lilim buried her head into her mothers chest and shook her head.
Before departing from her her mother told her about how her father used to be, that she shouldn't blame herself for him sacrificing his life for her.
"Lilim take care of your little brother" Lilim then hugged her brother tighter as tears stream down his cheek
"I promise to take care of him"
Lilim then washed her smell off of herself and crossed the river after a final goodbye from her mother. She then headed towards the eastern forest, as her mother turned southeast
Multiple footsteps were then soon heard.
In the east...
Lilim can be seen running through the cold forest in the night. She spent the entire time running that by the time she managed to get to the edge of the forest dawn was about to break.
"This..." she said shocked this was the very first time she saw the beach, she only read about them in the books she used to study
"...The ocean" she softly whispered, she then went towards the sea and scooped up a bit of water and tasted it
"Salty" she said while sticking out her tongue.
Then with a lowered head said "Father... there's nothing"
She then sat by the cold beach and said "There's nothing to the east... where's the mission...? Where's the Midgard kingdom..."
Her legs at this point felt prickly, and she couldn't take another step, black bruises extended all the way from her chest.
She then looked at her brother, the little tiny life entrusted to her and with great determination said
"Let's cross the sea"
~Omni pov~
"Let's go... Let's cross the sea" Lilim said while looking ahead.
She knew there was land across the sea. She didn't know if that land was the kingdom of Midgard, but her father said it was so it had to be there.
And as she started walking towards the sea a voice was soon heard "Oh my, so this is where you were" it was the priest that was fighting with her father and as he appeared he only sound that was heard was the jingle of his bloody chains
Lilim backed away slowly and as she backed away she yelled "G-Get away!!!"
"Well, now, on to the question which one of you was possessed, in wasn't this one and it wasn't that one" The priest said as he threw her father's severed head which was quickly followed by him throwing her mother's severed head as well
"FATHER!...MOTHER!...WHY.... WHY?..." Lilim frantically yelled
The priest then continued talking totally ignoring her mental break down "Cases of Demon possessions although rare could actually happened to the male gender, its very few but it's not zero"
"Nn, please... don't hurt my little brother"
She then hugged her brother tighter as tears streamed down her face.
"In that case, which one of you is possessed"
"Me... I'm the one that's possessed, so please, please leave my little brother..."
"Good girl. I'm glad you're honest"
The priest then gets closer to her and started stroking her head with his bloody hands and as he did he said
"We'll probably know each other for a really long time, so allow me to introduce myself. I am a high ranking priest and my name is Petos. You will be a valuable test subject.
Lilim then stuttered out "Th-Then... what about my brother"
"Don't worry I have no business with children that are not possessed"
Petos then swung his spiked chain towards the baby's neck.
However before it can make contact with each other the chain grew a purple outline as it stopped just a few millimeters away from Lilim's baby brother's neck stopping it from decapitating it.
And as it stopped a voice full of wrath was soon heard "YOU FILTHY MONGREL"
Petos shocked looked up and what he saw sent chills down his spine.
A being dressed in all black jumping down from a black and purple wyvern descending into the ground towards him with his boot sticking out slightly ready to stomp on him.
Luckily for Petos he had enough time to enhance his durability since as soon as the beings feet touched his face his head was quickly brought to the sand where it was blasted everywhere due to the force
Lilim had shielded her brother with her body from the bloody chains and sand.
'He saved him... he saved my baby brother from being murdered' she thought
And as the sand clear, you can see the being dressed in black and his hood up covering his face stepping on Petos face like he's a bug.
"You mongrel, you filthy bug" said the being, Shadow, as he squished Petos face with his foot.
He lifted his foot upwards and stomped it on his face once again.
*Stomp*
"You fucking piece of shit"
*Stomp*
"Fucking lower than trash"
*Stomp*
"Fucking waste of space"
*Stomp*
"Fucking garbage"
*Stomp*
"You don't deserve to be called human"
*Stomp*
"Your mother never loved you"
*Stomp*
"Your father probably abandoned you"
*Stomp*
"You were probably adopted"
*Stomp*
"Filthy Animal"
*Stomp*
"Who goes"
*Stomps*
"And literally"
*Stomp*
"Tries to"
*Stomp*
"Murder a baby"
*STOMP*
Shadow used more force on his last stomp which caused Petos's head to sink in deeper into the sand which exploded everywhere blasting sand into the air.
And as Shadow slowly moves his boot from Petos faces blood just starts to drip down back onto Petos's face.
"Tch, great now I have this filths blood on my shoes" he says as he kicks the air spraying all the blood that was sticking to his boots off.
As for Petos his entire face at this point is disfigured beyond recognition, even Lilim who was holding her little brother took a peak inside the crater he was in, and barely recognized him, If it wasn't for the priest outfits he was wearing and her undying hate for him she wouldn't have recognized him.
Alot of his teeth were broken, his face slightly caved in, and his nose was at a weird angle, Petos was seen unconscious in the crater with his mouth wide open.
Shadow then let out a sigh "sighhh, now are you okay, are you hurt anywhere"
Lilim when she realized he was talking to her just shook her head and as she did she winced in pain due to the "Demon Possession"
And as he looked at her he said "Ah, I see you're a heroes descendant"
Lilim's eyes then grew wide in surprise not expecting him to know of such a thing, but before she could say anything Shadow held out his hands and placed it in the middle of her chest, and as he did he started to completely heal her "Demon Possession".
Seeing this rivers of tears just kept coming out of her eyes.
Before she had any chance to express her gratitude, they heard the sound of splashing waters and the shout of someone calling out to him.
"BOOOOSSSSSSSSS, WHO ARE WE FIGHTING"
When they turned to the voice they saw everyone running on the ocean rushing towards him, as for Delta the one who called out to him was running on all four on the ocean with her tongue sticking out
And as they arrived on land they skidded slightly to slow themselves down and as they did they pushed sand right into the crater burying Petos slightly.
Cid then pointed towards the forest where multiple priest came out holding the head of every single Golden Panther, they even had the head of the branch clan leader.
"They're with the Diabolos Cult and it looks like they massacred an entire Clan before we arrived trying to get to her." Shadow said while pointing towards Lilim
Hearing this Alpha put down Gamma as she was still holding her in a princess carry as her expression turned serious...
All of their expression turned serious.
Even Delta's playful expression was gone, all everyone of them felt was just anger due to not being able to prevent such a massacre.
Meanwhile as all the girls turned serious, Lilim was on her knees sobbing while holding the heads of her mother and father with her baby brother in her arms.
"*Sob* Father, you were right, you were always right *Sob* There was someone in the east that could heal Demon Possession *Sob* They came from the east across the Ocean, they came from the east *Sob* And they did it *Sob* They healed me completely *Sob*"
