Chapter 850 - THE DAY OF THE EXECUTION (2)

"I wish to see your mate in Tartarus soon," Chiron said, which culminated an uproar among the crowd.

A loud collective gasp escaped from the crowd upon hearing Chiron\'s provocative statement and the centaurs shook their head in disagreement. Contrary to what people believe, the centaurs were peace-seeking creatures, which always strive for balance in their life and would avoid conflicts as much as possible.

Therefore, to hear such vexing words from Chiron, it was hard for them to believe that they were coming from their respectful chief.

"Kill them!" the crowd hollered in one accord with a voice full of fury and hatred.

"Burn them to death!" echoed one voice after another and soon it became a wave of demands from the citizens as they growled and snarled at the two centaurs, who were bound to the adjacent poles with dry haystack around their feet.

Their angry voices were like the wildfire in a forest, spreading very fast as ripples of emotion overflowed through the amassed group until the very last person on the far end.

"SILENCE!" Eaton roared to calm down the commotion, if this continued any further, then the angered lycanthropes would attack the rest of the centaurs for the sins that Chiron and Carina had committed.

The deafening roar managed to silence the uproar and the citizens were coerced to wait for what would happen next or more precisely what would their king do to those centaurs.

"As a sign of the centaurs pledging their loyalty to the king of lycanthropes, we will do a blood binding pact to prove their loyalty in the future," Eaton said, he turned around and faced all the centaurs.

They had been informed of this and knew their choices were limited, it was either agreeing for the pact or they could join Chiron and Carina to be burned to death right after them.

"If you don\'t want to agree with this pact, you can step up on to the platform!" Eaton final sentence boomed among the people and this left them shuddering at the thought of the very consequences that they would have to face once they chose to reject the pact.

Of course, the first offer was more tempting than the other, yet there were three centaurs, who stepped forward to reject the offer. It was evident from their stance that they actually chose to follow Chiron to the after life.

"We reject the pact. We don\'t want to live under the tyranny of him any more. Chiron and Carina don\'t deserve to die, it was the devils, who whispered to them and made them do their bidding," one of the three centaurs spoke loud and clear, while the other two agreed with what he chose.

This statement created another wave of whispers among the crowd and some of the centaurs appeared faltering with their decision.

And after saying that, the centaur, who spoke earlier looked at Zarrn, long and hard, before he talked again. "Don\'t you feel ashamed to stand here and present yourself as a representative for us, when the truth states that you betrayed your own chief?"

Zarrn looked at him and then his fellow centaurs below the platform. He heaved a heavy breath before he answered.

"I don\'t feel ashamed to stand against Chiron and Carina, and declare the truth to vouch for the wrongdoings they have committed," Zarrn said. His voice echoing among the crowd. "But, I will feel ashamed for blaming the devils for having a weak heart." He looked at Chiron and Carina.

The ex-chief of the centaurs had his eyes fixed on Zarrn, yet no one knew what he was thinking at the moment.

"The devils can do everything they want to, but it was still Chiron who decided to follow the temptation," Zarrn said while keeping his eyes fixed on Chiron.

Zarrn didn\'t hate Chiron for the wrong decision he made, but he just felt disappointed toward his chief for his surrender to the devils\' provocation.

In fact, in some occasions, Zarrn too felt the resentment along with Chiron for their past, but he didn\'t know that it was strong enough to stir something inside of him just from a whisper by the devils.

He should have chosen a different way.

"You are right, but I don\'t regret it," Chiron finally chose to cut in and then he looked at the three centaurs, who came up to the platform, his eyes filled with unfathomable emotions. "Go back to your people."

However, the three of them were close to Chiron and they didn\'t have any family or a mate to tie them down to the people, thus they stood firm on their decision.

"Carry out the execution!!!" Eaton said out loud when the other three centaurs also were tied up to the punishment poles to be burned along with Chiron and Carina.

Suddenly a loud sound boomed out as the citizens cheered out in unison spectacularly, giving off an intimidating aura.

Not to mention the five perpetrators, even the other centaurs shivered when they heard that.

Alongside with the crowds cheers, was the thundering sounds from the drums which were being hit rhythmically as five people stepped up to the platform while carrying torches in their hands.

The dark sky only added to the gloominess of this afternoon, as if it was too waiting to witness the pathetic deaths of these five souls who would meet their end in less than a few hours, as those poor souls wouldn\'t be able to see tomorrow.

Meanwhile, Lilac watched all of this without blinking. At first she didn\'t have any idea about what Jedrek had decided.

She knew Jedrek would punish them severely, but to kill them in this torturous way, was something that have never crossed her mind.

Though, Lilac\'s expression didn\'t show her true feelings, from the way she held Jedrek\'s hand tightly, let him knew that she didn\'t agree with this.

However, Jedrek appreciated her for not raising an objection at this moment. Because, if Lilac had done that, Jedrek would be in a difficult position.

On one hand, it was his order and he didn\'t want to back off from his words, but on the other hand, Lilac\'s opinion mattered to him a great deal.

Fortunately, she kept silent until the five people stepped forward and all the commotion along with the sounds of drums died down as everything became eerily silent.

Lilac bravely watched when the first torch lit up the haystack beneath Chiron\'s feet which was followed by one after another.
