Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 156

Chapter 156: Who is the true suspect?
There was also the fact that throughout the entire time fighting the dragon, the blood dragon never ever used blood manipulation.

It was understandable that the power of the blood dragon had been beaten down to his level of strength.

However, that should not have affected its abilities.

After all, Chiron had also fought other cored beasts in this world and all of them still had their abilities.

It came as a total surprise when he discovered that the blood dragon did not use blood manipulation.

It would have been so much easier to have killed him if the dragon had just hunted other animals and used their blood to destroy the entire mountain in search of him.

But this did not happen.

Also, the old man had told Chiron to show his valour by killing the dragon just like his ancestor Chikit.

However, Chiron was already aware of the actual story and he knew that the only reason why ancestor Chikit killed the dragon, was because the dragon allowed it.

This meant that there was no valour or honour involved.

Surely, the will of the scabbard should have known that.

With all these things set in place, it was not long before Chiron understood where he was and the identity of the old man.

It turned out that the will he had to fight was that of his ancestor. Or rather, a piece of his ancestor.

When he was alive, he discovered that his cultivation was no longer growing. Naturally, old age caught up with him.

To combat the undeniable approach of inevitable death, Chikit thought out a plan to be immortal.

The plan was actually quite easy. He kept parts of his consciousness in his treasures.

That way, far off in the future, if any of his descendants became strong enough and was recognized by the treasures, he could use the opportunity to destroy the person’s consciousness and take over the body.

This world was created by Chikit based on his rich experience of the world.

After all, he had been a hunter before he was blessed by the blood dragon. He was very familiar with a lot of the creatures on the chikitsa mountain.

This was how he was able to create such a realistic environment. Also, he had the opportunity to perfect the details over the years.

However, Chikit had never seen the dragon use blood manipulation. As it was a skill used during fights. He had not been privileged enough to experience the ability in its full form.

After all, back then, he saw the dragon fighting the elves far off in the sky, but that did not mean that he saw the ability being used.

And if he did not see it, that meant that he could not put it in the simulation.

This world was formed purely by spirit energy. However, it was made really by the actualization of reality.

The reason why Chiron was fading away, was because of his loss of spiritual energy. And this was the true purpose of giving him the difficult tasks in the first place.

It was all to wear him out.

Chikit looked at Chiron in surprise. He was sure that he had choked Chiron to death. However, what he was seeing before his eyes was not what he expected.

What Chikit did not know, was that Chiron had two dantains.

It was true that his spirit energy had run out, but what about his aura energy?

Aura energy was different from spirit energy, but at the end of the day, it was still energy.

Chiron walked up to the old man. This was supposed to be Chikit who was his ancestor.

The same person that was praised and worshipped by the clan members for his valor, and strength.

However, all Chiron saw when he looked at him, was a man that was very lucky to have been in the right place and at the right time.

Nothing more, and nothing exceptional could be concluded of him.

Chiron leaned in. He grabbed devil’s touch, and then he twisted it in Chikit’s chest.

The old man suddenly turned to dust.

And then he immediately got an alert from the system.

<Blood bond formed: Ancestor’s scabbard>

He opened the stats on the scabbard and the things in he saw made him nod.

For one, The scabbard had the ability to heal all and any physical injuries.

With this, he no longer needed to take potions.

Chiron waved his hand and the door out of this space was formed.

He exited it, and was back in the room where he was to be interrogated.

Old man Chikit had not been lying when he said that time worked differently in the scabbard from the real world.

Elder Harden was still about to go get him his water.

He had spent months in a subspace and it was only a few seconds in the real world.

Chiron willed and the world fully resumed.

*Cough!*

Chiron coughed some more, “You know what!? Don’t worry yourself too much Elder. I’ll just have something to drink later.”

Elder Harden paused and turned to Chiron.

“Are you sure?”

“Absolutely! I feel all better now.”

Harden nodded as he sat down.

“Now! I will be asking you questions, and you’ll answer as truthfully as possible. Do you understand?”

“Yes, Elder.” he nodded.

“On the night of the devil invasion incident, where were you?”

“I was back home having some…” Chiron paused a bit, “time with Carla. We had just lost our teammates and she really needed comfort. And so we were together.”

Elder Harden looked at the Scabbard. It glowed in a slightly green hue. This meant that Chiron was saying the truth.

He continued on asking several questions, all of which also made the scabbard green.

This meant that he had answered truthfully.

When the question was over, Harden nodded as he asked Chiron to leave.

However, Chiron paused at the door.

“Elder Harden. I know I shouldn’t say, but if I was to guess who summoned devils, I would say that it was Aggro. Yes! my former team leader’s father!”
