I Can Copy Curses

Orion and the others found that the void shuttle was very spacious inside. One thing they all felt amazed by was that, even though it was flying through the air, they didn't feel any sort of movement inside. It was as if the inside of the void shuttle existed in a different realm altogether, providing a sense of calm and stability despite the rapid travel.

It was Orion's first time inside a void shuttle, just like Famir and Ryfin. Although he had seen quite a few, and some even bigger and more advanced than this one, he had never traveled in any of them.

So, it was also his first time experiencing all of this, and from what he could tell, the inside of this void shuttle was spacious enough to accommodate a hundred individuals comfortably.

He noticed that at the entrance of the void shuttle, there was a circular table with chairs all around it and there were also some books and foods on the table.

Meanwhile, at the other end were two passages that, according to Orion, would probably lead to the pilot area and the living quarters.

Though he wasn't sure of it.

"Young Master, you and your friends should go to the living quarters and have a rest," Mike suggested. "It will take us some time to reach Blitz Haven. Due to the emergency situation with Young Master, we have flown at light speed to reach you as soon as possible but this ended up using most of the mana essence available in the void shuttle.

So, we will be going about round-trip to stop by Starforge to refuel, which will take us more time."

"Alright," Orion nodded.

Seeing that Orion agreed easily, Mike sighed in relief and turned towards Lisa.

"Lisa, show Young Master and his friends their living quarters," Mike said.

Lisa nodded and turned to Orion.

"Young Master, this way." She led Orion and his friends towards one of the passages.

Orion saw that the passage was a long, narrow hall, with several doors spaced evenly along either side. Each door seemed to lead to a different compartment or room, adding to the sense of vastness and complexity within the void shuttle.

A moment later, they arrived at their location.

Orion and his friends were surprised to see that the place where they arrived had several doors placed side by side and even some on top of each other.

"Young Master, choose any of the doors from here," Lisa said, pointing at the doors. "All these doors lead to a living room."

Orion nodded and looked at Famir and Ryfin.

"I am going to go and have some sleep," he said, yawning. "I am feeling very tired."

Waving his hand at them, he went into one of those doors and disappeared before them.

Inside the door, Orion noticed it was just a small room with a bed and a study table placed close to each other.

He was very tired after all the things he had gone through in Aethelgard City, especially after the backlash of using Supernova when his Burst Mode was over.

He could still feel some pain all over his body. He knew that absorbing mana crystals would help others recover their lost mana and aid in recovering from fatigue or minor injuries. But in his case, he wasn't sure what would expedite his recovery from the more severe effects of using such a powerful ability.

'I can only use my curse to not feel pain, I guess.'

He thought for a moment and then activated the curse of Sacrificial Renewal. Instantly, the pain he felt was gone. However, he understood that it was merely the effect of his curse masking the pain; he was still injured internally. He needed to find a more permanent solution for his recovery.

'Looks like I will need some curse that could help in healing.'

He felt that if he possessed a healing curse, then, with his almost infinite energy, he wouldn't need to worry about getting injured in the future. The idea of having a way to instantly heal any wounds appealed to him greatly, especially given the dangerous situations he frequently found himself in.

But he also understood that finding a healing curse was almost impossible. A curse that could heal the individual upon activation wouldn't be categorized as a curse anymore; it would be more like an extra ability on top of their talent. The rarity and nature of such a curse made it a distant dream, compelling him to rely on other means for now.

'It seems I'll have to use the good old healing pond in my home.'

He thought, reminiscing about his home. He missed his mother very much. Ever since he recovered his memories, he always felt a sense of urgency—an urgency to meet his mother. This longing weighed heavily on his heart, driving him to push through the pain and challenges he faced, hoping one day to reunite with her.

'There is also Luna. The last time I saw her, she was just five years old. I hope she remembers me.'

Thinking of the cute little sister of his, a smile appeared on his face and he fell asleep.

***

Three hours later.

Whoom!—

Whoom!—

Whoom!—

An alarm of some sort sounded in Orion's room, causing him to wake up abruptly.

"What happened?"

He opened the door and saw that Famir and Ryfin had also woken up because of the alarm. They were also out of their rooms.

"Let's go and see what caused the alarm."

Orion took the lead and walked into the hallway until they reached the meeting section at the entrance of the void shuttle.

But what they saw really surprised them.

They saw that Mike was pointing a sword down the neck of a kid about their age and the kid had his hands up in the air.

What was surprising about this was that the kid was none other than Ron. The white-haired handsome guy—the anomaly.

"Ron?" Orion frowned at seeing him. Last time he remembered, Ron fled to the mirror world to hide from the colossal monster and now he suddenly appeared before them.

And for reasons unknown or perhaps because of his whole experience with Ron or him being the anomaly, he felt that he couldn't trust Ron like he trusted Famir and Ryfin.

That was why he was a little dissatisfied after seeing him appear here.

"Orion, help me!" Ron shouted as soon as he saw him.

"Young Master, do you know this guy?" Mike asked, seeing the intruder take the name of his young master.

"Nah, I don't know him," Orion said, pointing at the door. "Just throw him out."

"Orion, Brother Orion, why are you teasing me?!" Ron suddenly started crying, and tears and snot began to stream down his face.

"Alright, then tell me." Orion looked at him right in the eyes. "Why are you here?"

"When I came back from the mirror world, everything was over," Ron said, his voice sounding lonely. "There were only soldiers of the Emperor roaming around, helping everyone. But I didn't want their help. What I wanted was to leave that planet and become stronger. That's why, when I heard the masked girl talk about Famir and Ryfin leaving with you, I thought I could also go with you. And here I am."
