## **Chapter Three: (Revelation of Truth)**
***
**Enrio's personality changed completely.** His eyes returned to normal—black and dim. Upon arriving at the orphanage, he saw a boy his age mercilessly beating other children in the front yard.
> **Enrio:** "Why are you hurting them?"
> **The boy:** "They challenged me after trying to harm that girl."
> **Enrio** (calmly): "Let them go."
> **The boy** (defiant): "And what will you do if I don't?"
> **Enrio** (confident smile): "I'll treat you as you treat them."
The boy, named **Chinji**, challenged Enrio:
> "I'll teach you not to cross those stronger than you."
Enrio laughed, and the fight began. Chinji, hands in pockets, leaped and kicked—but Enrio dodged every strike one after another.
*In Enrio's mind:* "He's fast and strong... but once I find his weakness, I can defeat him."
*In Chinji's mind:* "This kid's cold in battle... If he beats me, I'll befriend him. Our friendship will be great, despite the reason."
Enrio spotted Chinji's weakness: slow face guard. He exploited it, striking his face until it swelled. **Chinji fell, admitting defeat.**
> **Enrio:** "Is your fighting style special?"
> **Chinji:** "Yes."
They introduced themselves:
> **Chinji:** "What's your name?"
> **Enrio:** "Enrio."
> **Chinji:** "I'm Chinji."

Suddenly, the orphanage director appeared calmly:
> "Hello, Enrio."
> **Enrio** (shocked): "How do you know my name?"
> **Director:** "Your grandfather adopted you from here. I know it's sudden, but you must know the truth."
> **Enrio:** "What's my story? Why am I here?"
> **Director:** "**Flick** brought you here, but told me you're not his real son."
> **Enrio:** "Okay."
> **Chinji** (amazed): "That's it? Just 'okay'?"
> **Enrio:** "No... I'll learn everything in time."
> **Director:** "You're free, but I noticed something about you."
> **Enrio:** "What?"
The director half-smiled:
> "You're like him... Your mind is like a 12-year-old, like Chinji. Result of a strong trauma."
> **Enrio:** "You're right!"

Enrio sat in the back yard; Chinji went to fetch food from the kitchen.
Suddenly, another boy his age approached sharply:
> "You're the disappointment."
> **Enrio** (calm): "That's what people call me."
> **The boy:** "What's your sin?"
> **Enrio:** "My sin? What do you mean?"
> **The boy:** "Yes, your sin! Blame the **Messengers**—they deserve it."
*In Enrio's mind:* "Sin? Yes... things are clearer now. Blame the Messengers, not me."

**An arrow pierced the boy's head.** Enrio was shocked, dizzy from horror, eyes fixed on the ground. Something inside urged:
> "Attack... attack!"
*In his mind:* "If I attack, he might kill me... If I run, maybe escape... What do I do?"
The archer approached; Enrio attacked without hesitation. The arrow missed—**the man deflected it with one touch, deadly cold.**
> **The man:** "I'll spare you for your boldness, child."
He took the dead boy's body. Before leaving:
> **Enrio:** "Who are you? Why do this?"
> **The man** (calm, mysterious): "**Orders from the Leader...**"
**He vanished into the darkness.**
