Vengeance of the Returner

Chapter 183: The arrival (4)

The previous night,

Ferandel was at the upper hand as they had the two sages by their side. From their every single swing the foot soldiers' bodies splattered and flew like sliced meat spraying blood all around.

It was the moment the foot soldiers inserted Dynamic drugs. The sages who were fighting at ease fell back by the sheer vital energy the spears expelled. Even though their lives were shaved off in exchange for using such power. The soldiers strived to live on that single life or death moment with the only victory in their minds.

"For Dracton!"

"For Dracton!"

The soldiers who lost the morale gained the courage to face the sages again. The Outlaws amidst the soldiers and archers shooted magic spells onto the walls of Ferandel.

Although the sages could handle them at ease fighting thousands and thousands of men that kept on swarming is something of an extreme thing. 

While the two sages continuously kept the soldiers at bay. Ferandel's infantry and soldiers walked out.

"For Ferandel!"

All the infantry, foot soldiers, mages, archery units, Seige weapons emerged in unison. It was clear that the Ferandel was prepared to the worst and they possessed an army unit equal to the level of Dracton as well.

Until their emergence, the sages slaughtered over three thousand soldiers. It was not a hard thing considering their power level which can handle almost five thousand soldiers. And for the record, both sides possessed a population of about 200,000 in their army.

Ferandel Knights emerged with a great entrance as they rushed out of their walls riding Krigons. Noticing their interference the Spear and sword sage decided to mingle amidst the soldiers that were far behind.

Raes henil smiled menacingly looking down at the battlefield sitting majestically atop his Wyvern.

The sound of swords and spears clashing against each other. The screams, the loud shouts and yells, the cries of pain. The whole environment gave birth to a realm where men exist in a trance pouring their lives into their weapons. Presenting their life to war to give a living to their families.

In the far distance was the King of Ferandel straight ahead towards Raes Henil's Wyvern. 

"Haha, This war will prolong for months with the two sage's interference."

At the very moment, the devil beside Raes henil stated that. The sky darkened indicating a great change. Slowly raindrops fell to the bloody battlefield. 

Both armies were baffled yet, their hands and legs did not stop. 

Crack!

A huge thunderous sound echoed out of the dark clouds. Followed by that several claps of thunder continued along with lightning. That is when two distorted beasts arrived in the sky.

"They have arrived..."

Xan Liu Wei, the sword sage said with a worried expression looking at the sky.

"Weren't their rumors about the Feroz khan disappearance? Zerast is also destroyed. Hah, These corrupted gods are so desperate enough to send the sins..."

Kim-Woo-sung sighed after swinging his spear.

Meanwhile, the were two men looking down on the war field each possessing beasts from Ether world. 

"Nate, you think he will be here?"

"No, but I am not going to fight him. There is something amiss when I fought him. So do as you wish but, I will not be interfering with him."

Nate Fraser said pulling the ear of the Pigeoger. A beast was similar to that of a lion possessing wings of the pigeon wings with a body over seven meters long and wide enough for a grown man to mount on it.

"Haha! You fear him?"

Feroz khan laughed and descended towards the ground after tearing through the dark clouds.

It was the arrival of the sins who were once killed by a mere human once again in the conquest of winning the war that has arrised.

Presently in the forest near Sedante,

There was no reaction in his face as he stared at the serpent kin with his cold eyes while he whimpered and cried in pain.

"Pochaney, the con artist. Name your purpose!"

Felishia asked as everyone in the cave looked at the scene in a daze.

"AHHH!"

He couldn't even scream as the thin strands of metal wires disrupted his nervous system and muscle tissues.

Nix switched the chains of suffering back to their normal state and waited for him to talk.

"A-Ahh...I-I-I am from the followers of Corrupted gods. A D-D-D-depraver."

He said stutteringly while groaning in pain as blood dribbled out of his wounds.

"A Depraver???"

Everyone in the crowd rephrased the word in shock.

"So depraver what is your deal?"

Nix asked in Felishia's place once again activating the chains of suffering.

"I was introduced to Ruilo Magore by one of my Brethern. I discussed the existence of Ruilo Magore with the Depravers."

"I guess you were later assigned a secret mission to sneak inside the group. What's your prime goal?" Nix asked once again in Felishia's place. since he thought it wouldn't be a good choice to make a revered deity to investigate in such an unsightly manner. He knew faith comes from reverence as such that was a good choice.

"Our prime goal is to find those who oppose the Gods in secret and we enter deep inside their roots and transmit their goals and information to the gods and depravers."

"Hmm, so... How much have you conveyed?"

"AHhh!!!"

He screamed as Nix inserted his sword into the wounds instead of the wires.

"Imperator!..."

Asahi uttered as the Serpent screamed in agony in front of the crowd.

"Say? How much have you conveyed?"

Nix said without paying heed to anyone that tried to talk.

"Kill me please! please!"

He practically started beg and the only voice that expelled inside the cave was Pochaney's.

Nix abruptly killed him and stood up from the place where he tainted the place with blood.

"I can see through those who are Depravers. Firstly, If I am going to ally with you people I need to trust you all. I don't know how you've selected people. But Anyone who is from Depravers cannot hide from my eyes. And those who wish to die a peaceful death come forth!"

Nix commanded as he scanned through each one of them with his eyes.

Slowly five people came out of the group in fear. 

"Come towards the stage!"

He ordered and they lined up.

"I am doing you all a favor and I believe you will support me later on as well!"

He said looking at Felishia and others rising his sword and severed each of their heads in mere seconds.

"And yes... You can all come into Theemai. There is no slavery or Discrimination. You are all welcome."

He said looking at the dwarf with a very slight smile.

"Is there someone here that knows the way to Temple of Heredia?"

He asked. 

"I know..."

The dwarf said hesitantly.

"Okay, Can you lead the way for me?" Nix asked indifferently.

He nodded and said. "Yes, My Imperator." 

Soon Nix bidded farewell to Felishia and left the cave by its backside which connected to the vast forest.

"Nix... Why did you go out of your way to do such a thing?" Cinzia questioned after tightening her arms around him.

"Felishia has access to me and information. Leaving sleeper cells will also cause problems for us... And I wonder if there are Depravers in human faction as well?" He said.

"Yes, there are but they are very low in number. They are like a disciplinary cult who will have their eyes on people who experiment on things that are considered taboo and banned from practicing."

'Guess Depravers are groups that that exists long ago. Other groups could exist as well. No wonder, Derek Ravenk mentioned taboo topics in the Way of Empyrean...'

Nix thought as the Dwarf quietly led the way to the temple. It seems he was hesitant and threatened to speak up with Nix. 

Nix smiled and walked towards the dwarf. Camila quietly peered at Nix unable to understand his mind.

"So what's your name?"

Nix said looking at the dwarf.

"I am Vlarion..."

"Hmm, You are fascinated by these chains? Wasn't it why you tried to anger me?"

Nix asked with an indifferent expression on his face showing the chains of resentment. At that moment his eyes glimmered in anticipation yet, he refrained himself from touching the chains.

Nix smiled and shapeshifted his chain into a sword and showed it to him.

"Yes, My Imperator. I apologize for acting in such an unsightly manner. I was impudent to not notice that you are the Imperator..."

He bowed and continued.

"May I take a look at this weapon?"

And Nix stretched the sword towards him.

"This is a bounded item and possesses an ego as well!"  Valrion exclaimed in surprise like a little kid. He was surely a tech nerd. Nix knew it, as he looked up his information. This was also why he did not kill him.

"Indeed, but these chains are alive. As for ego, I wonder what happened. It was long back since they've communicated with me..."

By the time he finished his explanation they were before the temple of Heredia
