With each fierce blow connecting with the Village Chief's mouth, he staggered further backwards, his balance disrupted by the sudden attack.

But Orion was far from finished. Charging his other arm with lightning, he unleashed another devastating punch, this time aiming for the Chief's nose. The impact was fierce, shattering his nose, and sending shockwaves of pain and confusion through the Village Chief's body.

"BAM!" "BAMM!!" BAMMM!!!"

Again and again, his fists enveloped in torrents of electrifying energy, he advanced towards the staggering Village Chief. Each punch carried a tremendous force, fuelled by his burning rage.

Finally, the Village Chief succumbed to the relentless assault, losing his balance and crashing backwards, with his back facing the ground. Seizing the opportunity, Orion swiftly moved to pin him down, ensuring he could not escape the onslaught. "BAMM!" "BAMMM!" Without hesitation, he continued his relentless barrage of lightning-coated punches, each landing with a deafening boom that resonated outward, mirroring the barrage of emotions raging within Orion himself.

After a few seconds, during which Orion unleashed a torrent of lightning-fast punches, the resounding rain of blows abruptly fell silent as the Village Chief swiftly intercepted Orion's attack, catching his punches with his right hand. "I know, I deserve this..." the Village Chief admitted, his grip tightening around Orion's left arm.

However, before he could say another word, Orion interjected with a swift strike from his other hand, delivering a powerful blow to the Chief's face. "You deserve more!" Orion exclaimed, his voice laced with frustration.

"BAMM!" "BAMMM!"

The relentless punches continued for another five seconds until the Village Chief summoned his strength and swiftly turned around, overpowering Orion and pinning him to the ground. Holding his blood-stained nose, he struggled to recover as he morphed into his giant Green Horned Owl form and took flight into the sky.

However, Orion was not deterred. He immediately rose from the ground, his eyes fixed on the retreating giant owl. Just as he was tempted to give chase, the owl abruptly changed direction, executing a nimble sideways turn. In a split second, it snatched Orion within its powerful talons, preventing him from moving any further. With a powerful thrust, the owl ascended higher and higher, seemingly aiming for the clouds.

Witnessing this, Orion released his constraints on the Vylkr energy coursing through his body. But to his surprise, the Vylkr energy calmly intertwined with the strange energy within him once more, allowing him to think about what would happen if he deactivated his gift and stopped using the strange energy. Meanwhile, he let the Vylkr energy run as rampant as it wished.

However, he had no time to think about the consequences of this option as he swiftly put it into action.

The crackling lightning subsided, retracting back into his arms, but an unexpected phenomenon unfolded. From every pore of his skin, from head to toe, wisps of inky black strands emerged, floating outward from his body, mirroring the same occurrence he had witnessed in Fiona and Warrior Jean.

Not only did Orion notice the blackish strands, but the Village Chief also abruptly halted mid-flight, veering his wings sideways in the opposite direction. His owl-like eyes fixated on his talons, widening with astonishment as they landed upon Orion's body.

Meanwhile, Orion, who instantly felt his body being filled with more strength, quickly activated his gift once again in his transformed state. With a surge of immense power, lightning erupted from his arms, causing the Village Chief's talons to flinch involuntarily, thus releasing Orion from the owl's grasp and sending him hurtling towards the ground.

In a reflexive move, Orion crossed his arms over his face, bracing himself for impact. However, the expected collision never occurred.

Instead, Orion witnessed his flickering lightning, which had extended like countless tendrils through the air, converge beneath him. The lightning coalesced into two enormous bluish constructs resembling hands, seemingly folded in a protective stance, shielding him from harm.

Wide-eyed, Orion marvelled at this extraordinary development. However, with the imminent ground still approaching, a swift thought flashed in his mind. Immediately, he extended his arms toward the earth and watched in surprise as the giant bluish lightning constructs mimicked his movements.

Within moments, a resounding "BOOOMM!!" shook the ground as the surface crumbled and various rock shards scattered, leaving behind an imprint of a colossal palm embedded into the hard soil.

Harnessing the momentum of the devastation he caused, Orion executed a smooth mid-air somersault. Using the two immense lightning constructs as propellers, he soared upward, his feet leading the way with another thunderous "Boooom!" reverberating through the air.

Instantly, Orion soon arrived a short distance away from the dazed Village Chief, still flapping his wings in disbelief at the sight of the wisps of black strands surrounding Orion's body. With a resounding shout, "COME HERE!" Orion's gargantuan lightning constructs latched onto the Village Chief's body, causing him to recoil from the electrifying shock that coursed through him.

"SCREEEECCCH!" The giant owl let out a sharp, ear-piercing scream. Temporarily disoriented and robbed of his ability to fly, the Village Chief plummeted towards the ground before immediately regaining his senses with a forceful gust of wind as he flapped his wings together. He broke free from Orion's lightning constructs as though they were fragile glass. Utilizing his immense sharp talons, he clawed himself away from the grasp of the lightning.

As there was nothing left for him to cling to, Orion plummeted towards the ground once more. His back facing the pit below, he observed the Village Chief struggling to stabilize himself in mid-air, still reeling from the electrical damage inflicted by his gift. With blackish wisps still flowing out from every inch of his body, Orion activated his gift once again, turning around mid-air to face the looming pit below.

Stretching his hands wide open, he watched as his lightning gathered to form the same gigantic constructs that stretched wide, with all five fingers open, as he brought them crashing down upon the pit's surface. "BAAAM! BOOOMM!" The thunderous impact sent a flurry of dust and ash billowing into the air, shrouding Orion's surroundings in a dense smoke screen.
