Orion got close, and made sure to show off his magnificent torso to the women. He wasn't a shy person when it came to the ladies. In fact, he was sometimes too brash. Especially when he'd had too many drinks. That means right now. He was being too brash right now.
"Hey, ladies. My friend and I, we saw you from over there and we couldn't decide whether you're good dancers or not," Orion grinned as handsomely as he possibly could, which was quite goofy looking. "I said you," Orion pointed to the red-head, "were definitely the better dancer!"
Orion held out his hand, and hoped it worked, "Would you do me the honour of showing my friend just how right I was?" The woman looked at him, glanced at Ivory, before giggling. She was definitely addled with alcohol to have taken Orion's hand and be led onto the dance floor.
Orion winked at Ivory, pointing him towards the other girl who had a distinct brunette hair colour.

Orion went along with what Cheshire told the citizens. It was reasonable, and she knew what she was doing. If there was a brain in this operation, it would be more her thing than Orion. Orion was the brawn in this operation. He wasn't shy to admit that, at least.
"Bless the bodies first, over there." Orion pointed to a patch of grass just along the side of the church. It was still sacred grounds, however it wasn't within the church itself. The place would be good enough for the ritual. Hopefully it doesn't kill the land around it.
Orion helped the men unload the bodies as gently as they could. "Wrap your hands and arms, or you will die." The man was blunt. This sickness, it was unnatural, and nothing here can cure it. These people, they didn't need more deaths today.
"You can begin when you're ready, father."

Orion grinned at the young woman as she did her antics. True, she was a woman inside, but then he was a man outside right now, and to Orion, that was just a bit weird. He didn't have anything against it, but he'd rather stick to dancing with women.
And then the conversation went to his own face. No, he denied it. He didn't look all mushy. "What are you talking about?" Orion shook his head, "No, no, no mushy here..." He tried denying it as best as he could, hoping that Ivory would take it at face value. He really didn't want to explain it, because he didn't know how to explain it at all. He wasn't good at this feelings thing.
"You know what, let's go. I see some ladies over there!" Orion stood up and motioned for Ivory to come with him. He needed to clear his head, and not talk about her, so why not do some dancing with some local women. They always like him, the big macho foreign wizard who came to save their village

Hisown attack got sent back to him again, causing the lightning god slayer to be propelled away by the force. He wasn't prepared at all for it, and paid the price. For a strength-type mage, Kasumi really liked to use his own attack against him, and it's really making him kind of irritated.
"Seems like you're almost out of steam!" Orion grinned, his own body was now littered with bruises, courtesy of the young woman. She had been brutal with her attacks, not holding back one bit, and he loved it! He'd rather be beaten up than face an opponent who didn't take him seriously at all.
"Come on then, free shot! Show me why you should be the one who wins the tournament!" Orion opened his arms wide. He needed Kasumi to exceed her limits. She needed to break through the barriers she had set upon herself, and grow into a much more powerful mage. More powerful than himself. He had absolute faith in her.

"I suppose you're right," Orion nodded, even though it really didn't convince him to drop the subject from his mind. Gods, demons, and dragons. All of them vying for supremacy in their mythological arena. Not one truly cared about the humans who exist around them. Orion had read about it, about the destruction these monsters would cause. At least, that's what it said on the fairy tails he's read.
Then he was invited to dance. "Uh, have you seen me?" Orion pointed to his own physique. Big, brawny, and very wide. "I'd likely block the whole dance floor by just standing there!" Orion laughed out loud. "Plus, I only dance with ladies, and you might be a pretty boy, but still not enough to entice me."
Orion took a drink, looking around the room full of half-drunk men and women fooling around. There was a song playing somewhere, and some were dancing to the tune. He found himself daydreaming about a certain blue-haired girl with fishes in her hair.

Orion listened the explanation Cheshire gave them. It was correct, very precise, and without any blemishes. Orion couldn't have done better with it at all. The truth was the truth, and there was no sugar coating it. The parents knew everything, and the mages did their part. Nothing more, nothing less.
"We also advise everyone to stay away from the site. We encountered an aberration inside the mines, and while we defeated it, we can't guarantee that there aren't any more lurking around. Be advised, they are really strong."
Orion can't stress that enough. These people will most likely try to go in, to seek revenge for their children. They were wasting their time, and most likely, their lives. They were not mages. They were not equipped to handle situations like these.
"Chesh, we should go with the priest for the purification." Orion pointed towards the priest who was already carting the bodies somewhere that was more isolated for the ritual. It was a simple prayer, and light magic was used, but nothing too spectacular.

The attack was sent back, and Orion couldn't help but smile at the tactic. When an opponent is stronger, why not use their own attack against them? It was the perfect ploy, and something Orion himself could do when necessary. It wasn't necessary now. No, he had another trick up his sleeve.
Swiftly, Orion ran towards Kasumi. Physical attacks are great, but there was something even better when Orion was involved in any physical combat.
The god slayer charged lightning on his arm, before running a semi-circle around Kasumi. Then he shot off the ground, aiming for the young woman's torso.
"Eclipse!"
A palm-strike boosted with an Eclipse. He had never done it before, but there was always a first for everything!

"I suppose drinking to forget might be one way to deal with it." Orion acquiesced to the woman's suggestion, before slowly making their way towards the entrance. "I would offer to buy you a drink, if you'd like to at least, later on." He was going to have some anyways, so why not have company with him as he went about drinking himself to sleep tonight.
Then they reached the entrance, and Orion stopped them. He was nervous. The pain he would feel would compound once he sees the mother's crying out for their children. It would compound and he might just break from the pressure. And so he steeled himself.
"Okay, no more avoiding. Let's go." As they got through the entrance, they spotted a small crowd of people. As sure as Orion predicted, wails started. The parents. They were the ones who were the worst off. Unlike their children, they would continue to live with the pain.
"This is..." Orion carefully maneuvered the cart towards the attending priest of the village, instead of towards the parents, "The priest will be a better choice. The parents don't need to see them..." He wasn't sure if it was a good choice, but it needed to be done nonetheless. He'd rather the parents remember their children as who they were, not what they became.

"Powerful? No, no, you misunderstand." Orion scratched his head. He supposed that the description he gave was akin to someone boasting. Orion was far too drunk to boast about anything, especially his magic. Magic was just magic, after all, and even a simple cleaning magic spell can become the most deadly spell if used by a mind that was twisted. Magic was just that, magic.
Orion shrugged, "God of a lot of things, I suppose. They're all like that from what I've read." The man was not a believer of any gods. Orion knew better. If there truly was a deity up there, then the world would not have been fucked over and over again. "Do you really believe it then? A god?"

"That doesn't sound healthy, but I like the plan nonetheless!"
Orion grinned, although it didn't really reach his eyes. The problem was that Orion didn't think the alcohol could drown this memory. The alcohol would help ease him, but the horror will stick to the man for a very long time. The faces of those children will stare at him in every one of his nightmares.
"You know what awaits us up there, right?" Orion idly asked. They were very close to the entrance now. Orion glanced towards the woman, and noticed her guild mark. He knew what it was, Odin's Spear, a group of very distinguished fellows in Shale. He'd ask about that later.
For now, he looked onward as they reached the end of the tunnel.

"Good. Capitalize on your opponent!"
Orion took the hit again, this time still feeling the drain on him. It was getting too annoying. Maybe, if she were to experience it, then she might stop doing it to him. And so he charged up lightning on his palm, creating a long whip, and snapping it towards Kasumi.
"Tenjin's Thirst!"
Orion grinned, two can play at this leech game!

Orion had been able to hit the young woman, but he himself got hit. Then he felt his life force start to get drained away by the attack. And so he did the most logical thing a man can do: he disengaged. The attack was some sort of leech, and he was not a stranger to that type. Bonnie had also employed it with her sword. And they do become very annoying.
"Huh, good move. But not good enough." Orion held his sole, before pushing forward, hand at the ready to strike Kasumi, this time on the side.
"Your opponents will be stronger than you, faster than you, smarter than you. You need to be better than them!" Orion spoke from experience. The man had been through quite a lot, but one thing he learned was that no matter how strong an opponent was, they had a weakness.
The problem was, for Kasumi to win against him, she needed to know his weakness.

The young woman punched hard. Really hard. Her hooks felt like it was from a professional boxer who also imbued his fists with magic. And her technique reminded him of someone very well learned in the subject of close-combat fighting. The man took her hook though, and with a grunt, forced himself to endure the pain.
"Good hit. Needs more power behind it." Orion smirked, before continuing, "You think this will win you the so-called tournament you're having in your guild? Definitely not!"
With a grunt, Orion took his left palm and tried to hit Kasumi on the chest, hoping to destabilize her so he could get the upper hand in this physical combat. To be honest, her strength reminded him of Bonnie, the sword-user in Cait Shelter.
"More!"

Orion grinned. It hit, but then, she was coming at him. Good. She knows how to play the game then. Physical fighters cannot stay idle for long, and if one suspects a trick, they try to subvert it by either playing your own, or heading it off before it even happens. She had chosen the latter option. Good.
"You think that's enough to stop me?" Orion took the hits, but he swiped back a punch of his own, hoping to catch the female mage off-guard. He might not be a physical fight, but he was definitely strong enough to contend.
"Let's see who's stronger then?" He waved her to come at him one more time with a grin.

"Can you eat lightning to heal up?" Orion cheekily grinned, before getting back to work.They had all the bodies now, at least all of the most visible ones. Orion had been careful to only grab parts that were semi-corrupted, those that can be cleansed by a simple priest, hopefully. The burial would be an important factor in the cleansing of these parts, and Orion knew at least that priest knew a little about cleansing magic. It was in their job description, after all.
"Let me grab a cart so we can haul them back easier." Orion quickly jogged towards the nearest cart, and dragged it to their position. It was rusty, but the wheels worked, and the whole thing still seemed like it can go for another hundred years.
Then Orion started piling the bodies into the cart. It would be easier this way, just pushing the things back up into the surface. Less hassle, less grime.
"Whenever you're ready." Orion nodded to Cheshire. He was ready to start pulling the cart back up to the surface, and face the crowd that most likely will be looking for their return. For their children's return.
