Chapter 296: Eric's Equation

"Because, there is a reason for Goeben's special physique. ”

Eric's words sent the king deep in thought.

Of course, he understood that Goeben was special—prophetic rituals, a withdrawn childhood, and Goeben had the bloodthirsty side of an exile, but unlike an exile, he was always able to keep his senses, and everything he was in was never motivated by simple impulses, but by inexplicable racial hatred.

Goebon was better than everyone else about Henry's family and the entire earthly kingdom, though no one knew where the hatred came from. Even before Goeburn opened the history file for the first time, hatred was imprinted in his blood, and the only thing he wanted to do was to cut off the blood of the Henry family and destroy the entire Horuthia Alliance.

This purpose coincides with the Chaos Sect.

The king had no clue about this, but at this moment an outsider brought the answer.

Although it may not be helpful to know the reason now, the king still wants the answer to the whole thing: "Tell me." He urged Eric, urgently.

"Exiles...... That is, those people who can't suppress their bloodthirsty desires, have you ever considered why they exist?"

"Even after all this time, there are still people who can't get used to everything here. The king replied.

To them, the exiles are like madmen.

There are many explanations for the madness of a man, and they believe that it was Theopharan's never-ending night that drove those people crazy, and even as a king, he could not help but feel a similar feeling when he stood on the terrace of the royal city and gazed at the long night that enveloped the city. Those people just expressed themselves in a more intense way.

"Big mistake. ”

Eric denied the king's opinion, although he was only speculating, but the inference was much more reliable: "Their existence is closely related to Goben, your ancestors sealed the monster, but the seal was not complete enough, although the circle prevented its regeneration, but could not stop its overflowing power. ”

"You're telling me that my people have been driven mad by a monster that has been sealed away for hundreds of years?"

Impossible!

No one except the royal family knew where the monster was sealed, and they didn't even have a chance to get close to the magic circle, so how could they be driven crazy by the monster?

"The word madness is not accurate, if my calculation is correct, its real purpose is to summon inheritors who can carry its power, some of your people have been summoned by it and have accepted a small part of its power, but with it comes the hatred of the monster, which has been sealed for a hundred years, and even a thousand points of constant hatred is enough to make ordinary people killing machines. It's a two-way street, and if they refuse the call, they won't be eroded by power. ”

"Wait a minute, that's interesting. ”

Before the king could speak, the bard in the compartment spoke.

The exiles, the lost kingdom of Theopharan, the mysterious outsiders, the power-hungry......

Whether Eric is true or not, these words fill in the end of his biography. And he was willing to believe that what Eric said was true, because there seemed to be some kind of calling in his mind before he set out on his way to find Theophalan.

A mysterious voice always told him in the dead of night that on the other side of the subterranean basin, a lost civilization was connected.

Of course, he didn't come in search of power, but to create something like no other in the world – and if the Lost Civilization really existed, he would be the first to witness it.

"I've got to write down what you said. As he spoke, the bard picked up a stone and carved it into the ground with all his might.

The walls of the dungeon had been carved with dense words by him, and the floor under his feet was almost full. However, this will be the end of the whole story.

"Even if what you say is true, what does it have to do with Goeben?"

"Essentially, Goben-Azuk is no different from an exile, except that he accepted the call earlier than those people, or a small mistake changed everything that followed, and the truth is that your mother was one of the ones who took the call. ”

Eric said as he collected his thoughts.

The researcher at the bottom has been given pieces of the puzzle, and all he has to do is piece the pieces of the puzzle together.

"Now I can be sure that you are talking nonsense, the queen mother died after giving birth to my brother, but I can tell you unequivocally that she did not show any of them until she died, and if you are going to continue to insult your mother, I can only call the guards to shut you up. ”

"That's why I said it was a little mistake that changed everything. Your mother was pregnant with Goben-Azuk when it was called, and the monster would normally prefer to summon strong men in order to break free from the seal, but at that time, for some unknown reason, it summoned your mother, and your mother answered its call. It stands to reason that she was supposed to become an exile under the erosion of power, but that power eventually converged on the soon-to-be-born Goben-Azuk. ”

Eric was so sure that his tone was as if he had seen it happen.

"So...... The prophet left a prophecy?"

"That's right, I said it - in rare cases, there may be a third scenario, in which case humans and monsters can achieve a high degree of unity. The indispensable premise of this unity is that Goeburn was already transformed by the power of the monster before he was born, and the monster molded him into the best vessel. ”

The bard stopped talking, but he noticeably quickened his movements, and the sound of stones rubbing against the ground was incessant.

"The moment Goben Azuk swallowed the core, it was not that he devoured the monster, but that he had achieved a fusion with the monster. It's hard to say who devoured whom between them, Goeben's innate hatred was a part of the monster that was separated, and from my point of view, although he looked and behaved like yours, he was a monster from the moment he was born. And this fusion will bring it another great benefit - in addition to regaining its original power, it will also gain the potential that belongs to humanity. ”

With enough time, Goppen can transcend its original boundaries and step into a whole new dimension. At that time, its power will be comparable to that of an Ancestor-level monster.

He didn't know if Sindora had seen this too, but such an outcome was undoubtedly what the Chaos Cult wanted to see. The stronger Goeben's strength, the higher the probability of their plan succeeding.

So, Eric had to stop Goeben Azouk.

He himself has little interest in the feud between the Chaos Cult and the Order Cult, but he now has some personal vendetta with Sindora.

"You, outsider!"

The conversation between the two was interrupted by the sudden sound of footsteps, and the jailer came to the door of Eric's cell with a long knife in his finger and said in a cold voice: "Come out, the king will interrogate you personally!"
