Chapter 502: The Sign
Chapter 502: The Sign
However, last night, something unbelievable happened. In a Dream, young master Eunid had seen his old grand mother appear to him.
And told him that she was the Goddess Diligence, and that the answer to the problems he faced was in this place, at the border of the Parting veil.
At first, Even Eunid was suspicious about such a dream. After all, it was possible that one of the other families had found away to get to his mind. But then again, the Magic users had casted a spell of protection on him so strong that they claimed even Dream walkers could not penetrate.
For this reason, he was absolutely sure that it had not been someone dream walking into his head.
However, just to be sure, he had sent his most trusted and loyal butler, Old Fang to check if such a place existed.
To his surprise, it did.
Eunid was aware that the Holy Church had trouble with the Zodiac families. In fact, they were parts of the world were they were at war with one another. But never would he have thought that in secret, they were also making deals with them.
The most surprising part was the fact that this facility was ran by a member of the Virtues families.
Underground black market deals with the Zodiac families.
Eunid had been introduced to life of Aristocrats at a very early age, coupled with his forced maturity at handling the family’s affarirs, he had come to realize that the seat of power was shrewd one.
Any and everyone would do anything for a bit more power. Whether it was knowledge, resources, money or more grace and blessing from the goddess.
It was all a part of climbing the ladder.
For this reason, his surprise quickly disappeared. Instead, he looked around with the eyes of one observing and taking notes so that he could learn.
Although this place was in name illegal, there was no way the Seer did not know that it existed.
It was just that it was best to turn blind eyes to certain things, as long as it was for the overall good. Meaning that even if he reported this location, it would serve no one any good, neither his family nor the Temperance family.
In fact, he also had a few illegal business here and there, but truly, this was on another level.
*DING!*
*DING!!*
*DING!!!*
Three loud rings were heard and everyone, both slaves and masters in charge, turned in the direction it had come from.
Everyone was left speechless at what they saw. After all, nothing like this had ever happened before.
Far ahead, over the huge building spitting out the most smoke to the sky, a huge Golden rune the shape of a giant clock had appeared. It chimed as its huge hands unwind time.
Old fang stared at this, "Impossible..." He muttered, "The Rune of a Pegan god!?"
Meanwhile, Eunid looked at this, his eyes brightening up. After all, he had been told that he would see a sign.
"The Sign!" he muttered to himself.
.......
Meanwhile, Only moments ago, Nora had entered into what others here, referred to as the Cooker, a place she realized was meant to turn the defects into more useful materials.
After seeing the big man butchered, she soon realized why she was separated.
She was just the right size to enter the Furnace.
Nora struggled hard, even trying to activate a bit of her spiritual energy, but it was no use. This Place had a way of damping her powers. besides, she was still injured from the Fact that her talent had been stolen.
The huge Bucther, easily raised her regardless of her biting and pinching, and as she screamed, he threw her into the burning flames to cook...
