Chapter 278 Lamb To The Slaughter (Mirror Egg)
Abel had a cocky smile on his face, "so you are the evil child that messed Sheyi up!"
The moment Chiron saw the head materialize from between his legs, he recognized him.
After all, the MC of the book had been a member of the holy Church for a while.
Chiron had incredible knowledge about the faction.
He recognized the slightly fat man as he proceeded from the earth.
This was Abel. He was one of two that worked together on every mission.
The second was his twin sister Cain.
Chiron remembered that these two had a curse attached to them that let them incapable of ever seeing one another.
If Abel was here, then it meant that Cain was not too far.
"Huh!? You do not look surprised to see me."
"What!?" Chiron raised a brow at him, "Were you expecting me to jump and scream like a little girl?"
Abel frowned a bit, and then he suddenly smiled, "I see you are a cocky one. But no matter, you are already done for. A dog on a leash can only bark!"
"Hmmm! You don\'t say." Chiron responded acknowledging the fact that he had just been called a dog.
"I heard you bested an acquaintance of mine, Knight Sheyi! You should be very proud of yourself. However, you should also be very sad. For all your achievements, you still fell, and at the hands of your own men. Nevertheless, you are still young and don\'t know the way of the world. Their betrayal will be your last and greatest lesson."
Chiron knew what Abel was talking about. After all, he was the one that informed Advisor Gon that his men betrayed him and therefore his offering of himself to the Chanland Kingdom as a sacrifice to please their wrath on his people.
"You know, King Ash does not want to kill you. He rathr keep you around like a trophy on his wall, so as to have an upper hand with the fight against the Vandora kingdom. But do you know what\'s going to happen?"
Chiron sighed, "knowing how the church has pursued me for no reason WHATSOEVER, I would say you are planning to kill me, right?"
Abel chuckled a bit, "I feel touched that you think of me in such a barbaric manner as Knight Sheyi. However, I have better plans for you. You will be transported right to the Holy land for a more dare I say, SAYISFYING sendforth."
"The Holy land?"
"Yes! The seer has requested to witness your demise with her own eyes. Your fate, dear prince, is sealed."
Chiron sighed again, "there is no problem. I have already prepared my mind for what is to come. As long as the Vandora kingdom is safe from harm, I have no problem with it!"
Abel chuckled again, "oh! I forgot to tell you. You see, plans are in a constant state of adjustment to fit the overall goal of ensuring the swift take over of the Clan lands. The Chanland Kingdom would be taking over the Vandora kingdom."
"What!?" Chiron had a very angry look on his face. He even attempted to step on Abel\'s face, but his leg just passed through him.
Abel had a broad smile on his face. He really enjoyed Chiron\'s reaction to the bad news he delivered.
"My Sister, Cain is already at the Northern regions."
"The Hunter tribes of the Highlands," Chiron muttered.
"Yes! I see you are familiar with them. I myself will be going to the Western side to meet with the Beast kingdom."
"What the fuck are you assholes planning now?"
"Nothing much! Let\'s just say that the Vandora kingdom depends a little too much on the Bear mother," as he talked, he brought out a silver egg with red glowing runes on it.
"You are already done for, so I don\'t mind telling you. This here is a little gift called a Mirror egg. It is specially made by the Holy church. It has the ability to affect certain divine abilities. You know, like give the wrong visions to a group of people that rely heavily on seeing the future to win wars," he gave Chiron a dark knowing smile.
He did not even need to explain. Chiron already knew what the Mirror egg was for.
This Mirror egg was gotten from a very rare Cored beast bird.
It was rare because it had a particular ability that had the possibility of always offsetting the plans of Divine beings.
For it\'s ability, this rare bird was hunted down and killed to the point of extinction.
However, the church had a habit of always saving something special for itself.
This Mirror egg had been engineered to interfere with divine energy.
If done right, one could even change the effects of the said divine energy.
Chiron could already think of the chaos that\'s was going to unfold.
Now, it made perfect sense why the Vandora kingdom was wiped off the map by the time the MC had joined the Holy Church.
This was the method that was used.
At the moment, Prince Victor and his armies were very dependent on the Bear mother\'s ability.
This ability of being able to see seconds into the future let them come out Victorious in every battle.
"When I am done, I\'ll come back to take you to the Holy land, gist you how the Vandora kingdom ended through out the journey!"
Abel said his good byes as he exited into the ground.
As he left, Chiron pleaded for him not to destroy the Vandora kingdom.
It was a very convincing plea with tears and all.
However, the moment he was gone, the tears stopped, and Chiron\'s face resumed it\'s usual cold appearance.
It was like all that emotion and care that he displayed had extracted itself from his body with Abel\'s exit.
And then, Chiron gave a side smile.
What Abel did not know was that everything so far had been part of Chiron\'s plans.
It was also why Chiron did not take the Bear mother\'s blessings.
