Chapter 21: Angel
Dimitri's eyes widened when he realised that his magic was out of his control. Dimitri possessed wind magic. Usually, it was used to deflect enemy attack, it wasn't the strongest offensive magic like fire.
But Dimitri was different, his power was so strong that he could use it as offensive magic which was unheard of. He was able to summon tornadoes, suck the air right out of his enemies' lungs, and blast them with enough force that their limbs were torn apart.
Even with such enormous powers, he wasn't a tyrant. He mostly kept to himself in the mage tower, secluded from the world. The only time he went out was to help fellow refugees and orphans.
The owner of the orphanage might have been cruel to him but those children were always kind, they helped as much as they could.
He saw a blast of wind come out of him. This never happened before so he didn't know how to control it. Before he knew it, the woman in front of him fell to her knees crying at the top of her lungs.
She covered her face with her shaky arms and realised that her face was disfigured. If Adeline saw this scene she would think she got off easy. In the novel, he was so powerful he could kill someone with just a flick of the finger leaving them no chance to defend themselves.
Her shrieks got the attention of the guards nearby. Knowing his position in the empire he started to worry. He was nothing but a deadweight to the empire, forget prison, he would directly be banished or executed. He didn't know if he could safely escape if he ran from here. He was pretty short for his age and malnourished.
"The screams were coming from there!"
