I Can Copy Curses

"They are here," Sword Sage muttered to himself.

At that moment, the whole city began to tremble suddenly.

"Look there!"

Ryfin shouted, pointing at the crack in the dome that was caused by the Sword Sage's sword earlier.

They saw that the crack suddenly expanded and a huge spaceship-like object came in from there.

The spaceship appeared quite long and was colored blue and golden. It was streamlined at the front and back, while at the center, it expanded slightly to accommodate its core systems and passenger compartments.

Orion knew who this ship belonged to. It was one of the many void shuttles their family had. Moreover, the one in front of them was just the basic one.

Soon, the void shuttle appeared in front of them, causing a gust of wind to wash their faces.

After landing not far from Orion's team, the gates at the sides of the shuttle opened, revealing a middle-aged man, followed by a group of men and women.

They didn't directly come to Orion; instead, they went towards Sword Sage and kneeled on one leg in front of him.

"Your Highness, Sir Kane."

They yelled in unison with the utmost respect.

Kane nodded at them.

Seeing that Sword Sage had accepted their greetings, the middle-aged man stood up and turned to Orion.

"Young Master Orion," the middle-aged man and the others behind him bowed down to him in respect.

Orion nodded at them but he didn't recognize any of them.

"Who might you be?" He asked.

"Since the young master has passed the test, you have been given a personal team of experts," the middle-aged man said. "I am Mike, and these are the experts who will be under you forever, including me." He pointed at the men and women standing behind him.

Orion looked at the faces of these experts that Mike talked about and saw hesitation and dissatisfaction in their eyes.

'It seems they are not satisfied that they are assigned to me.'

He understood the reason behind it. His reputation in the Darkwood Family had indeed spread widely, reaching the ears of almost every individual residing in the Darkwood Palace.

However, the reputation surrounding him was not favorable; it was quite the opposite. There were talks of a young master who was deemed talentless, labeled as trash, and subjected to ridicule.

And now that these people, who had trained their whole lives, had been assigned to that young master with a negative reputation, dissatisfaction was inevitable among them.

Orion nodded at Mike and turned his attention to Sword Sage.

"What would happen to all the Zenithans here?" He asked.

"The Royal Family has arrived and surrounded this place completely," Kane answered. "They will take care of everything here."

Vroom!—

At that moment, two more void shuttles arrived before them. But they appeared different from the one Mike had arrived at.

One was blood red, while the other one appeared to be golden. The blood-red one had an illuminating sun-like symbol placed at the center of the void shuttle.

They landed not too far from them and from the red one appeared a middle-aged man in his thirties. He had light red hair, tied to a pony and his face appeared red in anger, as if someone had insulted him. His eyes were narrowed, and his fists were clenched tightly by his sides.

As soon as he appeared, he turned his attention towards Orion's group.

"Who the hell is here from the Darkwood Family?" He yelled, looking at them.

Orion frowned as he heard him. Looking at his hair, he could tell he was from the Valen Family, and it appeared he didn't come on good terms.

"I am," he said.

"You brat," the man from the Valen Family looked at him menacingly. "How dare you ruin our plans?"

"So you admit that you planned to absorb the energy of the core of this planet, thereby destroying all life on it?" Orion sneered at him. "His Highness, Sir Kane, is also here, so it's good that you admitted your crime in front of him."

"Sir Kane?" The middle-aged man in red hair trembled and turned to look around when he spotted a man with golden hair smiling at him.

"Your Highness!" He immediately kneeled down on one leg. "Forgive me for not greeting you right away."

"It's alright," Kane nodded. "Tell me what's going on."

The red-haired man panicked. He didn't know what to tell him. He couldn't tell the truth, as what Orion said was indeed correct and if this were to be known by the Eldest Prince, then forget about him—the whole Valen Family would be in huge trouble.

"You don't need to say anything."

At this moment, a deep voice was heard amidst the tension-filled environment.

And soon another middle-aged man came to the scene. He had likewise red hair as the man from earlier but his was dark red and shoulder-length. He had a well-built body and a square-shaped face.

Moreover, his aura made Orion and the others uneasy, with a palpable sense of power and hostility radiating from him. It was clear that this man was not to be underestimated, and his presence alone was enough to make everyone around him feel a deep sense of foreboding.

As soon as he came here, he directly turned his attention to Sword Sage.

"Your Highness, we are in no position to answer you anything," he said. His voice didn't appear to have the respect everyone else had for Sword Sage. "I will directly talk to the Emperor about this."

Kane smiled as he heard him.

"Do as you wish," he replied nonchalantly. "But I didn't expect the Magi King of Aurora Haven to come here personally."

The middle-aged man ignored him and turned towards Orion.

"You will regret it," he said in a threatening manner.

"All talk and nothing else," Orion sneered at him too. "If you have the guts, then make me regret it right now."

The middle-aged man clenched his fists in anger as he heard him. The ground beneath him instantly got destroyed but he controlled his anger forcefully and calmed himself down. He knew he couldn't act rashly here in front of the Sir Kane.

"Darkwood Family won't protect you forever," he said, his eyes spitting fire as he looked at Orion. "Be afraid—be very afraid or you won't know when you might just die."

After saying that, he indicated the other red-haired man. Understanding what his master wanted to say, he went back to the void shuttle, flew it, and disappeared from there.

"Your Highness, I will leave now," the Magi King of the Aurora Haven said before he flew into the crack of the dome and disappeared from there.

Orion frowned at the last words of him. He felt that the Magi King of the Aurora Haven was too overbearing.

'It seems Kyle was right about his family.'

At that moment, he remembered Kyle telling them about how everyone in his family was so arrogant and had a haughty attitude towards everything and everyone. Now that he experienced this firsthand, he agreed with him completely. The Magi King of the Aurora Haven embodied every word Kyle had said, and Orion couldn't help but feel a surge of frustration and wariness.

Though he wondered why Kyle appeared to be different from his family members.

At that moment, more and more void shuttles entered the dome one by one and landed there.
