With a casual wave of his hand, Orion conjured a fierce flame, instantly setting the entire room ablaze. The flames quickly consumed the bodies and any evidence of his presence.
Satisfied that his tracks were sufficiently covered, Orion vanished silently into the shadows, leaving nothing but an inferno in his wake.

If we can't uncover their identity quickly, we'll have no choice but to proceed with extreme caution all the time outside our home. Whoever this hidden enemy is, their methods are ruthless enough.]
