บท 404: Stranger

Orphin had yet to recover from seeing the death of Zarius when he heard a small blast and turned around only to see the Scarlet King had descended next to him.

"I assume you know what your fate will be. It will be fast and painless, but first, I must ask you some questions."

Orphin only sighed as a sad smile appeared on his face and prepared to answer the question since it was not like he could resist.

The Scarlet King already had all the knowledge of Kain, but he needed to know more about the people who went after the boy. After all, he would take the young man's identity during his stay in Kronos.

Of course, using the Gluttony Eye on Orphin would have been the best way to collect the information. Yet, it was more complex, as the technique required nearly all of the Scarlet King's power to work on a Wave Warrior, and the mental defenses of a Wave King were much more powerful.
