I Can Copy Curses

"It's your doing?!" Merlin was shocked when Orion revealed himself.

Even Kane was a little surprised when he saw that the person behind all of this was actually Orion. Then, as if realizing something, his expression suddenly turned dark.

"Let go of her! Quick!" Merlin shouted in rage when he realized it was just because of a silver-ranked kid that his daughter had to suffer.

"Nah, I am going to kill her," Orion said with an indifferent expression.

"You dare?!" Merlin shouted again and used his talent to freeze the space around Orion.

It was then that he realized something was wrong with Orion.

"Hey Merlin, did you lose your common sense or what? Can't you see that he is just an intangible form? You can't do anything to him."

Kane's voice reached Merlin's ears, enlightening him.

Orion smirked when he saw that.

"What are you gonna do now? Beg me to let your daughter go?" he taunted.

Merlin didn't bother with a response. In a flash, he teleported directly in front of Orion and unleashed a powerful punch without hesitation.

The force of his fist was so immense that it didn't just strike Orion—it tore through the very fabric of space where Orion had been standing a moment before.

The impact reverberated through the air, creating visible cracks in the space around them, as though reality itself was shattering under the pressure of Merlin's blow.

The sheer power of the punch continued to surge forward, and everything behind Orion was obliterated in an instant. The force of the attack was like a tidal wave of destruction, unstoppable and all-consuming.

A massive chunk of the Emperor Heaven Palace, the grand and seemingly indestructible structure, was entirely wiped out. Where there had once been a majestic part of the palace, there was now only empty space, as if a giant hand had reached down and scooped away everything in its path.

Dust and debris filled the air, swirling in the void left behind by Merlin's devastating attack. The scene was one of absolute destruction—a scene of calamity, one might say.

It was pure coincidence that no guests were standing in that part of the palace which had been erased out of existence; otherwise, they too might have become memories for someone.

"You!"

At that moment, Merlin's shocked and disbelieving voice echoed in the ruined palace.

He was shocked because Orion was standing right beside him, alive and well.

"A complete intangibility? A pure intangible form?"

Merlin couldn't believe it. He had seen many people who could make their bodies intangible, but it was usually just specific parts; none had the ability to make their entire body intangible.

In fact, as an expert well-versed in space talent, he even understood the principle of intangibility and how it worked.

For one to be able to make their body intangible, their real material form had to be connected to the intangible form. This required the material form of their body to exist close to the intangible form for the connection to work; otherwise, the intangible form would cease to exist, and the material form would soon become normal.

That was why he attacked Orion a moment ago. He intended to directly destroy the material form of the body hiding somewhere around the intangible form, but his own reasoning proved him wrong here.

The person in front of him had absolute intangibility, and on top of that, his material form couldn't be found anywhere around him.

"A person with absolute intangibility, possessing many different elemental powers like fire, ice, and many more we might not know about, makes you wonder if such a person even exists... But look at that, in front of our very eyes, there is indeed one such person."

Kane's words echoed throughout the ruined hall as he closely observed Orion's intangible form.

He added with an intriguing tone, "Though I do wonder where the path will lead him in the end."

Merlin didn't respond to Kane, as if he didn't hear him. His entire attention was on Orion. He wanted to find a flaw, a mistake, an error in Orion's intangible form, but no matter how much he focused, he couldn't find anything.

Little did he know that searching for any mana points around Orion to find a flaw was a mistake from the very beginning. Orion's various abilities were the result of his arsenal of curses, and they were triggered by chaos energy—an energy no human had ever touched upon.

So no matter how many times Merlin checked, focused, and tried different methods, he was bound to fail every time.

"How is this possible?"

Merlin was once again brought to disbelief. He couldn't find any flaw in Orion's intangible form. This made him very irritated and frustrated at the same time.

His space talent had led him to do various research on space-type abilities, and he even understood how space elements work to a point, but all those researches and studies failed to find the flaw in Orion's form—failed when he needed them the most.

"There has to be a way, there has to."

Merlin muttered, trying to force his mind beyond its limits to produce some results.

He couldn't afford a failure here. His daughter's life depended on this. He would have to do it—either fix Orion or find a way to make his daughter come out of the purple sphere without letting it explode.

As he pondered hard, trying many possibilities inside his head, someone interrupted him.

"There is indeed a way I can let her go."

A voice like a divine truth sounded in his ears, bringing hope to his almost dead eyes.

"What is it?" Merlin asked desperately. He would do anything for his daughter as long as she remained safe.

"Let me think," Orion sneered and pretended to ponder.

Kane watched all of this with an amused expression on his face.

"Tell me something, why do you want to kill my family?" Orion asked. Though he already suspected it was related to Carl's family, he wanted confirmation.

Merlin didn't hesitate and immediately replied, "A family in Archons would live if your family dies. There wasn't a personal reason for my actions at that time."

Orion nodded and asked again with a ruthless expression on his face. "How does it feel to know your daughter is about to die? Does it make you anxious? Does it make your heart pound like it would burst out of your chest? Does it make you feel pain?"

Each question reverberated throughout the ruined hall like a haunting echo.
