Section 2 Chloe and Minos
Chloe Arryn was born believing that he was different and that he was going to do something earth-shattering in the future, so he basically didn't take anyone seriously. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info He had no friends, and in his eyes others were mere slaves in his service, and people were forced to obey his orders because of his position and authority. Chloe was not as evil as she was until she was ten years old, although she was not as evil as she was later. But since his mother's accidental death when he was ten years old, Chloe has become even more arrogant. Stan Arryn attributed all this to the misguided loss of his mother's love, believing that he was sorry for Chloe and his mother, so he allowed Chloe's evil deeds to do so, and often cleaned up the mess for him. The death of Princess Warren is a great mystery in the history of Oden, and it is only known that one day when the king went to visit the princess, who was living in the palace due to a sudden illness, he found that the princess had her throat cut and her eyes wide open, and there were many scars on her body that had been pierced by sharp objects, and Prince Chloe was found lying at the door of the palace, covered in blood. At that time, Stan Arling suddenly fell into despair, thinking that this was God's punishment for the people he had killed, and he thought that the death of his second son was already a cruel punishment, but now he was going to let him lose his beloved wife and son in one day. Fortunately, it was later discovered that Chloe had just fainted, and all the blood on his body was Princess Warren's. Later, the king learned from Chloe's description that the princess had been killed by a mysterious shadow, and Chloe said that he had fainted after seeing the shadow flash. No matter how much the kingdom searched for that dark shadow, there was no trace of it, so the death of the princess became a mystery.
Chloe's birth is another mystery for Oden, and although it is not known to most people due to Stan Arryn's later blockade, there are still some gossips that inadvertently tell the truth. It is said that Chloe was born when Stan Arryn's cousin Thorne Arryn was fighting Vasilian in the north of the continent of Kaos, and the pregnant Princess Warren was imprisoned in the depths of Thorne's castle in Winterin City as a means of blackmailing Stan from threatening his throne. When the princess was in the depths of the castle, there were only a few servants and guards, and when Chloe was born to the sound of the princess's screams, all the people around the princess fell to the ground and died without explanation, and Princess Warren fainted. No one knows what killed them, and since giving birth to Chloe, Princess Warren's health has deteriorated day by day, and she eventually contracted a vicious disease, and she died tragically under the mysterious shadow before her condition improved.
In fact, Chloe is well aware of the true face of the mysterious black shadow.
When Prince Chloe was five years old (and became a prince after Stan Arryn's successful coup), he stumbled upon the fact that whenever he was in a bad mood, the flowers and trees around him withered and withered, leaving him dead everywhere he went. Slowly, he learns to master this singular ability to make the plants around him wither according to his wishes, instead of requiring his mood swings as before. When he was eight years old, he began to use his power on animals, so during that time there were a large number of animal carcasses such as rats, rabbits, sparrows, etc., in the castle inexplicably, at that time the king thought that there was a plague in the castle, so he ordered people to clean the castle with great fanfare, not to let go of any corner, and after tossing for a while, he found that there were still dead animals, but no one was affected, so he attributed all this to the joke of heaven that ordinary people could not understand, and gave up. When Chloe was nine years old, he discovered that his abilities could materialize as a humanoid shadow that would take away all life in its path, except people. Perhaps because human life is too tenacious, when he secretly tested on a guard, the guard was only weakened after being attacked by the dark shadow, and did not die like other animals and plants, and then the guard died of a vicious disease, and it is said that he died not long after returning to his hometown, and his abilities did not work immediately, which made Chloe very unhappy. Ever since Chloe discovered his special abilities, he began to believe more and more that he was superior and different, and that other people's lives were not worth mentioning in his eyes, but were just his tools. And when he was ten years old, he finally made a move on his mother.
Chloe first secretly allowed the shadow to attack Princess Warren, but the princess only became weaker like the guard he had tested before, and the king thought that she was suffering from a bad disease, so he sent her to recuperate in the palace. Unable to tolerate another defeat, Prince Chloe was determined to take matters into his own hands, so he infiltrated the princess's chamber one night, unleashed a dark shadow to make the guards and servants faint, and slit his mother's throat with a dagger. He still remembered how pleasant the princess's screams were, reminding him of his dusty memories from years ago, perhaps the screams of the princess when he was born, and he was excited to finally remember the truth about the deaths of others, and he enjoyed the thrill of erasing life.
After the death of the princess, King Stan Arryn's indulgence of Chloe convinced him that he had made the right decision, and that the long-winded old woman had already upset him, and now killing her would make his actions even more unrestrained. So he began to be more unscrupulous, and from time to time he would kill a few random people in the kingdom to seek pleasure, and the old man would clean up the mess for him anyway. When the war with Miller broke out, the king decided to send him, the only remaining prince, to the front to boost morale, which made Chloe a little unhappy, perhaps the old man was tired of covering up for him, and wanted to send him away for a while, but the thought that there were so many people in the war that he could send and execute at will also aroused his interest, so he agreed to go with the army.
During the voyage, the little girl's behavior caught Chloe's attention, and the more this tough woman became, the more he wanted to take her for himself, unlike the maids who obeyed him, the little girl felt nothing but basic respect for his superiors, and seemed to take him a little out of sight. He learned from the attendant about the weakness of her mother's residence in Cardo, and he suddenly had a plan in his heart, believing that she was a hard-eater, not soft-eater. And when he was attacked by the demon, he tried to see how capable the girl could be, and he didn't let the old thing go out to help her, and she also succeeded in discovering the demon's weakness. When the demons fused, he believed that it was beyond her power, and that if she stayed any longer, he might die, and just as he was about to flee, reinforcements from the Knights appeared. Chloe was surprised by the appearance of the Knights, and although they had solved the threat of the giant demon, he knew that the Knights' spells and abilities were powerful, and that perhaps their dark shadow power would be discovered by them, so when Kyales was fighting with Mille's enemies, he took his attendants and decided to flee. He casually weaved his way through the rain of arrows and fierce warriors, secretly unleashing his abilities, allowing the Shadow to eliminate any threat that came close to him, and finally jumped onto a ship and sailed away from the battlefield.
Three days after sailing back, they encountered the mysterious figure who claimed to be the son of the god and exuded a purple mist, he couldn't help but blow up the ship that Chloe was riding, Chloe felt a strange feeling from him, he desperately wanted to see that person again, but now the ship was gone, and all around him were dead except himself, but unfortunately his own black shadow could not fly with him, and all he could do was wait. After waiting for hours on the broken planks, whether it was God's help or his luck, a merchant ship happened to pass in front of him, and he cried out to it for help—the first time in his life—and finally sat down on the ship.
When Prince Chloe got aboard, he learned that the merchant ship was transporting goods between Vasilian and Oden, but it was only in the middle of the way that the current deviated slightly from its course, so it approached the direction of Miller. Chloe concealed his identity as Prince Oden, saying only that he was the eldest son of a great merchant in Oden, and that he believed that the mysterious "son of God" must have gone to Miller, so he ordered the captain to take him to Miller in order to see him again.
"My lord, it's not that the villain doesn't want to help you, but you also know that now Auden and Vasilian are at war with Miller, and it's too dangerous over there, and we don't have the courage to take this risk!" the captain was puzzled.
Chloe gave him a blank look, then took out a few ingots of gold and a mansion deed with the red seal of the royal family of Oden (which he had previously taken from a merchant who had offended him), and said, "As long as you take me there, you will be paid!"
Unable to resist the temptation of money, the captain ordered the merchant ship to sail to Miller as he wished.
After a few days of sailing, Prince Chloe witnessed the powerful explosion on the continent of Miller, and he was convinced that the son of the god was in the same place of the explosion, so he ordered the merchant ships to move in that direction. But the sudden explosion deepened the fear of everyone on board, and the captain of the merchant ship retreated again, but after Chloe offered to double the pay, he still gritted his teeth and ventured towards Miller, knowing that Chloe's reward was already earned by them in a lifetime of trading.
One day after the explosion, Chloe finally set foot on Miller's land, leaving behind the title deeds and gold he had scavenged from others, taking some of the ship's dry rations, and walking alone towards Miller's center. He originally wanted to use his power to kill those people to satisfy his desire to kill people for too long, but because he desperately wanted to find the son of God, and the gold on his body was too much of a hindrance, he simply gave those fools to send them away.
Prince Chloe walked for a day, and perhaps by luck, he didn't run into any enemies along the way. He walked so fast for some reason, and he didn't feel tired in the slightest of his desperate desire for his purpose. When he was still half way from the center of Miller, he saw a deep pit that had been smashed by something falling, and he stepped forward with curiosity, and when he looked into the pit, he saw a cloud of purple smoke, which was exactly the same as the mist that had been around the Son of God that he had seen the other day.
"Is this ......" Prince Chloe leaned over and looked at him, and the strange feeling welled up in his heart again, "Is this the son of God?"
"What people!" said the purple mist in a human form, floating out of the pit, in an echoing voice.
"It's really you, aren't you some son of a god, why are you so embarrassed?" said Prince Chloe.
"It turned out that you, the human prince, failed to blow you up that time!"
"I'm not going to end well, I've been looking for you for a long time!" Prince Chloe pulled out the silver sword at his waist, as if to avenge his previous rudeness.
"You're just in time! I'm missing a new body, so let me see what you can do!" The mist instantly turned into a puff of black smoke and quickly surrounded Chloe.
"How...... How-" Before Prince Chloe could react, black smoke began to pour from his mouth and nose into his body, and he whimpered, barely making a sound. He wanted to resist in his mind, so his black shadow appeared according to his will, but the black shadow that appeared did not solve the current crisis for him, but merged with the black smoke that was about to occupy his body, and continued to pour into his body.
A moment later, as a puff of purple-black smoke exploded, the black smoke also disappeared, leaving only Prince Chloe, who was kneeling on the ground with his head bowed at the center of the explosion. Prince Chloe's face did not change like the other Minos possessed, he was still his appearance, and for some reason there was a disembodied cloak of black mist behind him, and when he looked up, he could see a purple glow in his eyes. He slowly stood up, looked down at his hands and body, and then looked up to the sky and laughed wildly.
"Hahahaha! I am the son of God!" the voice was undoubtedly Prince Chloe himself, but the will of Minos, who possessed him, disappeared for some reason.
Chloe, who has the power of Minos, also has Minos's previous memories, and he instantly knows his identity and mission, and knows the truth about Minos's background and the son of the god Hades......
Twenty-four years ago, Minos awoke in a catacomb, and he was nothing more than a small cloud of blue-purple smoke floating in the middle of the catacomb, enveloped in a blue ball of light. When he awoke, he knew that he was the son of the god of Hades, and the obsidian stone beneath him was an exclusive artifact given to him by Hades, and he needed to sleep until the time of awakening came.
Fifteen years ago, a mage sneaked into his sleeping tomb and stole the obsidian stone in front of him, but he had no choice but to watch the thief flee with his holy weapon, and from then on he began to hate humanity.
A year ago, he finally gathered enough strength to break through the barrier of the ball of light and break out of the tomb, but he found that he did not have the body that ordinary people have. Without a body, he could not exert all his strength, and it was inconvenient for him to move, so he could only float in the air like ordinary smoke, and if he encountered a strong wind, he would not know where to go. So he began to search for the sojourn body, and in order to retrieve his holy weapon and punish the damned thief, he could only resign himself to cling to the human he hated. However, after he possessed humans, he found that each human could only survive for ten days, after which the body would lose its vitality and become a shriveled shell, so he could only constantly seek new flesh to support his actions.
A few months earlier, he had been swept by a gust of wind to the desert town of Laconia, west of Vassilian, and he had devoured all the soldiers in that camp, finally stabilizing his strength from being blown everywhere by the wind. However, he was confronted by the knights of the Order, whose leader sabotaged his plan to possess one of the knights, and that he had gathered enough strength to turn back into smoke and fly towards Miller to get back what belonged to him.
On his way to Miller, he succeeded in capturing a soldier in northern Vasilyan who could be possessed by him, and although the body was somewhat weak, he had no other way but to have an indestructible body. He traveled to Miller alone, and on the way he encountered a disrespectful human prince and some vulnerable ants, and finally found the location of the obsidian stone, but he made a foolish mistake, thinking that the king who wielded the power of the holy weapon was the culprit who possessed the obsidian stone, but in fact he was just a puppet of the damned mage, and just as he was about to chase the mage, he was captured by the puppet king, and he blew himself up and destroyed his weak body, and he was blown away by the wind, and fell somewhere on the island, losing his body and his strength was greatly reduced, he could not act alone, can only wait for the opportunity to come in this deep pit that he smashed out.
A day later, he had his chance, and the stupid human prince appeared before him again, and he was able to survive from his own hands, and he must have been so extraordinary that he should be much better than that weak and incompetent soldier. So he prepared to devour him as usual, and continue his mission to reclaim the Hallows. But the moment he turned into black smoke and entered his body, he understood that he was the tool and the existence that was used. He is nothing more than an independent will with the power required for the Son of God, he has accumulated power for twenty-four years only to provide his true body with the energy it needs, and he instinctively keeps changing his body just so that he can one day become one with his true essence—he is only a component and the condition of awakening for the true Son of God. When he realized this, the last remnants of his will vanished, leaving only Prince Chloe, the true son of the fully awakened god Hades.
"Obsidian, I'll get back what belongs to me, I've never been the only one who can steal someone else's things, no one can rob me!" Prince Chloe said and continued towards the Miller Center, "But Yales, let Prince Ben surprise you!"
