Chapter 8 - Cyrus VII

(Third Person POV)

"You people are complete and utter assholes, you know that?" Cyrus said with an angry scowl, "Swinging your damn swords around, having your dragons bite people. Is that how you treat others?!" 

Baelon glared at him, "You imbecile, you're a damned cultist with fire sorcery!" He said, "You are a threat!" 

Cyrus waved his hands around in an annoyed manner, "I have no clue what you're talking about!" 

"Didn't you murder those men at the coast?!" Baelon pointed his sword at him

"They stabbed me!" Cyrus said, "Just like what you're doing! That's why I am warning you, stop your bullshit so you don't get burned too! But noooo, dumb white-haired cunt does whatever the white-haired cunt does. Shit. Listen, I am not the brightest bulb, but I am not this stupid! Stab the guy whose BODY is made out of FIRE!!!" 

"What's a bulb?" Alyssa said

Aemon's men were able to put the fire out, "That's enough!" He said as he got past the smoke and reached Baelon, "You are being arrested for involving yourself with the Red Cult, those zealots who burn people for their God." 

"You just confessed to murder." Baelon said, "You killed the men at the coast and the others over the course of a few weeks!" 

"No, no, no." Cyrus waved his hand in front of him, "The fuckers at the coast, next to the fish and all, yea that was me. It wasn't intended, no.....but it was me. They stabbed me with knife and I grabbed them, accidentally burning them. Buuuut...the rest, no clue. See, I was washed ashore onto the beach. I came from the sea, I couldn't possibly be responsible for the other murders. Think about it." 

"Is that so?" Aemon asked

"Ask....hm, what was that girl's name again?" Cyrus said, "Ask the sister of this princess, Saera!" 

"Saera?" Baelon said, "Why would my sister know about this?" 

"I think she's the one that Saera was talking about, Baelon." Alyssa said, "The one that was made out of fire." 

"Yes, duh." Cyrus said, "She saw that I was on the beach and-.....wait, what?" 

"What?" Baelon frowned

Cyrus pointed at Alyssa, "That one said that Saera was her sister. And it makes sense, they look a bit alike." He said, "But you just said that Saera was your sister too." 

"Yes. and??" Baelon said, "What's your point?" 

"Ain't she your wife?" Cyrus said, connecting the dots, "If Saera is both of you guys' sister, then that must mean....Oh, what the fuck? You're both siblings? And you're married?" 

Baelon and Alyssa looked at each other, a bit perplexed at this. 

"What does any of this have to do with anything at the moment?" Aemon said with a serious expression, "Turn yourself in, I won't ask again." 

Cyrus had a disgusted look on his face, "Is this what Emily was reading? Incest bullshit?!" He said, clearly irritated, "You fucking Targaryens are weird. Don't tell me that your parents are also siblings." 

Baelon blinked, "W-What? You don't know?" 

"Oh, disgusting!!!" Cyrus said, clearly agitated, "Get your inbred asses out of my face, I don't wanna hear any sort of arguments coming from you! Fuck off!" 

"W-What?" Alyssa said, "You don't know your place, do you? I'll have Meleys-" 

"Fuck all of you." Cyrus threw a ball of flames on the ground, causing a bright explosion that blinded all of them

Suddenly, Cyrus launched himself into the air, his lower half was turned into flames, propelling him out of the area. 

"W-What the fuck just happened??" Baelon said, "Aemon!" 

"My eyes....." Aemon said as he rubbed his eyes, "What kind of magic is this???" 

**************

(Cyrus's POV)

"Okay, that was pretty cool." I said as I tripped on some rocks, "Oh shit, never mind." 

I hit the ground, rolling onto the sand, ending up on my back and staring up at the sky above me. 

I had just escaped that whole fiasco by using my powers to blind everyone and hurling myself with the power of flames, propelling me like rocket boosters. I have no idea if that was even possible for Ace. Although I think Sabo used his powers that way, not too sure. 

Either way, I was able to escape without hurting anyone else or escalating the situation any further. Having a Logia is strange, though. Weapons can't harm me but my dumbass can trip on a rock and fall down. Not like I take any damage, but it's still annoying. 

I sighed, "Man...." I said, "What kinda world did I stumble into?" 

This world and its shenanigans aside, I have to get a full grasp on my powers. I am a Fire Logia, my body is made out of fire. The Mera-Mera no Mi grants me pyrokinetic abilities, too, so I have to focus on honing that part first. 

There is so much that could be done with a power like this, but I am dumb, so I don't know how I can do it. Maybe mimicking what I know about this fruit might be the way to do so. I can sprout flames and do all other things, but I am not so sure how I can do them; maybe it's natural or subconscious. 

I sat up, "Powers aside....." I said aloud, "I got myself in some shit, huh? There's a cult running around and burning people, huh? They're going to get me in deep shit with these Dragon-riding people. Even if I shouldn't be threatened by them, it's still going to be an annoyance." 

Inbred Dragonlords. What a fucking joke. 

I sighed, "Reminds me of those Celestial Dragons, hm." I said, "Inbred bastards. Can't believe my ex worshipped these Targaryens, gotta be kidding me. Not my Goats: Luffy, Zoro, Shanks and Whitebeard. They wouldn't be doing this kind of tomfoolery...I should've been given the Gura-Gura no Mi.....but it's not a Logia.....hm...whatever..." 

I stood up and stretched, trying to think of something. I needed to get out of this place, to avoid the Royals coming after me. There's nothing that could change their perspective on the matter, they're adamant about capturing me. 

"But would they think of a way to capture me?" I said as I looked at the sea, "They don't know about Devil Fruit weaknesses, right?" 

"Do I even have them?"
