Chapter 238: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 41
Kayn approaches Emmet's third squad of Green Horn Knights and Lilith.
In every step he takes, he can't help but hide the excitement he is feeling at the fact that he is about to make connections with one of the great figures of the future.
He'll for sure make the best of it so that he can establish an alliance with her for future purposes.
"Mind if you introduce your men to me?" Kayn glimpses at the four figures that have always been following behind Emmet yet he still doesn't have a clue of who they are.
Emmet immediately realized his mistake. He got so used to always being well-behaved in front of Kayn that he instinctively waited for what the latter would ask him to do instead of taking the initiative.
"This is Miya, our markswoman," Emmet introduced their female archer.
Miya nodded to Kayn as a sign of greeting.
"This is Eliam, our Healer,"
"Van, our Tank,"
"And Amy, our Mage,"
The two men and another woman greeted.
Kayn instantly noticed that Emmet's third squad of Green Horn Knights is almost identical to Friedrich's first squad, except instead of an Assassin, there is a Markswoman.
"Nice to meet all of you," Kayn greeted back before turning to look at Lilith. "Same to you, Lilith,"
"I've heard a lot about you," Lilith put her delicate hand forward.
"I apologize that I only know about your name," Kayn acted a bit apologetic. In truth, he knows a lot about her, albeit just the future Lilith.
"I'll make sure to introduce myself to the best of my abilities," Lilith doesn't mind.
"Let's go," Kayn decided to take everyone to their residence, which is the town hall located in the center of the Dream Village.
Jericho and Jadiel split from the group as they still have other important matters to take care of related to the new batch of reinforcement, leaving Kayn and Gilbert.
Along the way, Kayn made some little conversation with everyone in order to get to know them more and to understand what sort of character they possess.
"Special guests like Chief Kody and Chief Kellan would be imprisoned in special holding cells," Kayn explained why they are going to the town hall. "Good thing for us, we have one just that located under the townhall,"
"Seriously?!" Emmet was surprised.
To tell the truth, that's very shocking for a town hall to possess a prison cell because that's usually placed under barracks.
"The previous Chief has a pretty strange hubby, you see," Kayn started describing that when they first took over the entire Dream Village, they later on discovered an underground prison where the Chief hides every beautiful woman he fancied and decided to kidnap. Each of them was in an extremely miserable state to the point that they don't have any other choice but to just kill them to finally put an end to their misery.
"Were they sex slaves?" Lilith wonders about it.
"That's just one of the supposed reasons we could think of," Kayn responded. They were definitely treated that way, but that wasn't all since the majority of them no longer have full body parts, like missing an arm or leg.
"We will never understand the mind of people who are part of the Assembly of Freedom," Emmet could only express his sympathy to those women. He couldn't even start to imagine how long they had to endure the torture of the previous Chief.
"Anyways," Kayn opened a secret door, which is the entrance to the special cells.
They walked down a flight of stairs leading three stories deep underground.
When they finally arrived, they saw Jude, Charles, and Jadiel just patiently waiting for them.
"How do you plan on extracting information from them?" Emmet can't help feeling curious.
"I have my way," Kayn smiles before signaling to Jude and Charles to take Chief Kody inside the torture chamber.
It wasn't really a torture chamber, at least not anymore. As of now, it is more like a room where prisoners get to meet with their loved ones and communicate with them.
Chief Kody was very surprised upon walking inside the room. It doesn't look like a room where they can effectively extract information.
"Don't tell me you want to talk sense into me in order to make me cough out information?" Chief Kody sneered. "Trust me, they've already tried,"
"Not really," Kayn signaled for Jude and Charles to go outside.
The instant Jude and Charles walked out, Kayn immediately waves his hand to take out the Molten Ice Sword.
"Death threat, I see," Chief Kody mocked. "Isn't that too out of place for a room like this?"
"That's only for the blood to be more, you know, apparent," Kayn smiled before immediately brandishing his sword.
It was already too late for Chief Kody to realize that Kayn isn't playing with him as the Molten Ice Sword already cut this head off from his body.
Chief Kody was wearing a disbelief look on his face as his head stumbled a few times on the ground.
Kayn stepped on the head before deciding to pick it up.
As if Chief Kody still had some consciousness left in him, his eyes suddenly stared at Kayn.
"It's great that your mind can still understand what I am about to do," Kayn waves his hand. Albeit this time he didn't take an item from his Storage Ring, but instead from an unknown yet horrifying place that even his prime self wouldn't casually choose to visit — Hell.
As if his brain understood what kind of place Kayn was putting his hand inside, Chief Kody's eyes started to show signs of panic.
"You're in luck because you got to live for another time," Kayn took out an apple. To be exact, it was an Undead Apple from the Gift that he had stolen from Wesley.
Without wasting any time, Kayn forcefully feeds the Undead Apple to Chief Kody.
In just one second, the Undead Apple turned into black smoke as it pulled Chief Kody's head back to his body.
As if nothing happened, Chief Kody's entire body returned back to normal.
The instant Chief Kody's head connected back to his body, he gasped for breath and started coughing out mouthful after mouthful of saliva on the floor.
"What did you do to me?" Chief Kody stared at Kayn out of fear.
