Will of chaos

Chapter 485 Cap 483: Hermes’ Message(Chapter Preview)



After leaving Diana’s brother behind we each went to a pirate ship, from what I’ve observed these pirates have a maximum strength of Grade +B.

These pirates are very weak so only one of us will be enough for each boat, plus there’s a Fairy or spirit of the space element with each one to help carry the pirates’ storage items.

In my case, I have Layla coming with me since I can’t let this psycho Fairy go on a boat alone.

Once I got on the boat I spread my Aura while blending it with the surroundings, this allowed me to form a real-time image of the entire boat.

With that I saw that there were only five pirates here, apart from them there were some people wearing chains, they must be illegal slaves.

“< Shadow Wolf >” (I)

As my Aura is already spread all over this boat and I can see everything, so I control the shadows while using a spirit rune creating Wolves made of shadow, these Wolves come out of the enemies’ shadows already making a fatal attack under my control, with that I was able to kill them all in seconds without having to move.

Ding!

After that I go through the places I saw in my mind where storage items or other things of value were.

The storage items I gave Layla to keep while she kept the rest in my storage items.

The slaves that were on the boat I brought with me the Demi and the Demons, the others I leave behind for the people of this town to deal with, I just don’t leave this one here because the Demons will surely be killed and I’m not sure how the Demis will do be treated.

(Author’s Reminder:

Demi = half monsters/humanoid monsters)

After taking only the slaves who might need help, I tell Layla to inform the others through the Fairies and contact Nix who is on another boat to do the same with their spirits, so I can warn everyone to only rescue the same types of slaves than me.

As Nix and Layla are the leaders of their respective Cradles, they have a connection with the Fairies and Spirits that live there.

Carrying the slaves was simple since we all have sleeping potions, plus Nix taught me the technique of trapping someone in the shadows while they’re unconscious, so I’m bringing them in my shadow.

After I finished the boat I was the first to go back to the ship so I went to talk to Diana’s brother, he was fishing when I arrived, I go to him and get another fishing rod, I also pull a chair out of one of mine storage items where I sit.

“So his name is Hermes?” (I)

“Yes, nice to meet you, if I’m not mistaken your name is Zenos, right?” (Hermes)

“That’s right, nice to meet you too.” (I)

“I’m glad to meet someone from Diana’s family, she doesn’t usually talk in detail about herself.” (I)

“But we already know a little about you, Diana used to send us a lot of messages through the Adventurer’s Guild.” (Hermes)

“Have you come to visit your sister?” (I)

“I came to give her a message from our mother.” (Hermes)

While talking to Hermes, the others were arriving, everyone was bringing the slaves somehow and handing them over to the Elves who stayed on the boat, this reminds me to get the slaves out of my shadow and leave them to the Elves to take care of it too.

Soon Diana arrives, it seems she only found Human slaves on the boat she was on, so she left them all there and only stole the valuables.

When she came back she went to talk to her brother while I went to talk to Nix, I had something to ask her to do.

I asked Nix to go into town and steal all the pirates’ storage items, I also told her to save any Demons or Demi that were slaves.

Marcos had already told us that these pirates were using combat slaves to increase their numbers.

Since Nix would be there so I thought I might see which of these slaves would be lucky enough to be found alive, I’m also thinking we should leave as soon as Nix gets back.

After doing all this I see Hermes jumping off the ship while waving goodbye to everyone, then Diana comes to me.

“Is your brother gone already?” (I)

“Yes, he just wanted to give me a message from our mother and meet you master.” (Diana)

“Something important?” (I)

“Looks like I have somewhere to go on the Dark Continent.” (Diana)

“Have you talked to your family about where we’re going?” (I) .𝘤𝑜𝑚

“I sent a message to my family through the Elves, asked them to take the message a few months ago to the Adventurer’s Guild.” (Diana)

“Looks like in a few months someone will come to me and guide me to the place I need to go.” (Diana)

“What is this all about?” (I)

I can see a little pride and doubt in Diana’s eyes before she tells me what’s going on.

“I don’t think I ever said that to you, master.” (Diana)

“My family is a believer in two Gods who are the God of Adventure and the God of Wolves, that’s why my parents are Priests of these Gods.” (Diana)

“My mother is the Priestess of the Wolf God Fenrir.” (Diana)

“I had already received Fenrir’s Blessing, but I didn’t think she would be chosen.” (Diana)

“What do you mean by being chosen?” (I)

“My mother received an oracle that I was chosen as Champion of the God Fenrir, it can be said that I will be his representative, but I don’t know if I should accept it.” (Diana)

“…” (I)

“I can see you’re considering this, so why not take it?” (I)

“A champion is different from a saint, master.” (Diana)

“A Saint represents the will of a God in the world, but a Champion represents the power of a God in the world.” (Diana)

“You mean you would be like a general?” (I)

“Yea.” (Diana)

“Would you have to leave?” (I)

“No, I would be as free as Vanessa who is basically a Saint.” (Diana)

“A Champion is similar to a hero for their Religion, my duties will be almost none, but I think I’ll have to talk to Vanessa more about this.” (Diana)
