Capítulo 121: Chapter 121 : Quit Acting Like A Hero
By the time Morning came, Orion found himself outside in the open, sprinting and doing his usual training.
But unlike usual, he was not focused, he was distracted and wasn't doing his best.
[I don't think that you will gain anything from this training when you are like this. Just stop and focus on one thing,] Merlin sighed and said. Actually, even he wasn't sure what to do here.
Of course, Orion was troubled by the safety of Rose and his other friends. And everything links to Nick Iron. At this point, he wasn't even surprised that Nick Iron was behind Rose going to the forest.
He didn't do it himself, of course, fu*king manipulating bastard. Even Orion had to visit many different students at night to read their memories to find where the information Rose got originated from.
In the movie or book, Harry got the information from Horcrux itself but this time around it was none other than Nick Iron.
Why he was so dead set on killing wither him or Rose was beyond him.
But with this action at least he know that Nick target but not just him or Rose. But both of them.
"What do you think I should do about this guy? He is hell-bent on taking me and Rose out. He could have killed others long ago but hasn't, so at least I don't think that he wants to kill others." stop his running and said.
[Hmm there are simply two ways here, just go gun blazing at him and bet on the 50 - 50 chance of winning against him. Or you can just again walk up to him and talk, man to man] Merlin shrugged.
"Hmm, and what about the assassination," Orion asked with a grim tone.
[It's an option but you are not suitable for something like that. Don't think about killing some magical beast or killing a human is similar. The way you are, you don't have it in you to assassin anyone.
Well, if you win fair and square against Iron in a fight, will you kill him.] Merlin asked.
Orion just wanted to deny but after thinking about it, he really asked himself, 'will he kill Nick Iron ?'
"What should I do, I can't keep up protecting her like this," Orion asked with a little frustration in his voice.
He already has run out of options. He can't directly confront Nick, he is not sure whether he can beat him the way he if right now.
He can't directly confront the snakes because again he is not strong enough right now, well at least according to Merlin. He doesn't believe this one part but whatever.
He can't tell any authority about the danger to Rose as he has to explain himself which will open a whole new Pandora's box.
"The only thing I can do right now is to train and keep on protecting Rose,"
[Well weakness is the original sin]
"Huh, you are not helping you know,"
[Okay okay, I have a policy, don't worry about things which you can't do anything about. Remember that all the disadvantages you are giving yourself are nothing but self-created. ] Merlin said.
"Huh, what do you mean," Orion blinked a little confused and asked.
[I mean why do you even care about others? Why you are trying to be the hero here kid? If you like the girl then I can understand but why worry so much about others? ] Merlin asked.
Orion at this was taken a little back. "Are you telling me not to care whether they live or die ?" Orion asked as his temper rose a little.
[Exactly, why do you want to be a hero so much? You can't save everyone. This is no anime kid, someone has to die. It's either, your enemy, those who come in the cross fire or you.
There have been many heroes in the past. Do you know how they died? By their stupid actions and if by the grace of some merciful god they didn't then the same people who they save, turn them into the villains.
Why do you think Dumbledore got such a big name huh, because he defeated Grindelwald? He won, right. Let me ask you this what if Grindelwald was the one who won.] Merlin asked with a serious tone.
Orion is talented but his thinking is very naive. The kid has to learn that the real world doesn't have things like heroes. There is no happy ending but just a better ending for the one who believes in that.
Orion on the other hand kept his quiet. He knew what Merlin was telling him no matter how childish he behaved and played around. He too is 16 years old in mind. Not the best age to talk about the morality of the world but he at least understands it more than 11 or 12 years old.
He never wanted to be the hero but after reflecting on his actions, they sure looked like he wanted to be one.
"I don't want to be the hero, that's not why I am doing it," Orion said while looking at the horizon. Still conflicted inside.
[Kid let me tell you something important. The world you have lived in and now you are living in is not that different than you think. In both worlds, society raises you in with the mindset of being weak under the pretext of being good.] Merlin was serious, Orion could say.
[You might not understand now, people often need to fall into a huge crater before waking up to the reality that the real world is much different than they think.
Good for you that life will have many of these wake-up calls planned for you in the future. I don't except for you to understand right now. So you shouldn't think too much about any of it right now either.
For the time being, just focus on your training and making the potion you so want to.
Sometimes, the answers to one question only await when one is ready] Merlin said and then like nothing happened came back to his normal nonchalant look.
'What the hell is he trying to say here man, almost all went above me,' Orion wanted to just make a joke about it in his mind, but that was the most frustrating part about it.
He didn't understand everything while also not totally being immune to his wake-up call.
In simple words, he was trying to say, 'Grow up and leave the childish ideas and heroism behind.'
