Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel - Chapter 301

Chapter 301: Chiron’s trick on History
The shock nearly sent Razad into a cardiac arrest.

His one good eye opened wide in surprise, and his tongue tied for words.

Razad could not believe what he was seeing.

“Your highness, I have gathered the rest of Razad’s men as planned and absolve them into my rebel army.”

Iceberg then gave a full report of how he infiltrated Razad’s camp as Chiron had adviced and won his trust, as well as the people of the Chanland kingdom.

The vivid detail and narration of how Chiron ordered him to act and how it played out left Razad in shock.

But he was not the only one.

It also left commander Hardstone and his men in absolute bafflement.

Chiron came from a world with a very rich history when it came to subjugation.

They were tyrants littered everywhere in history.

With the good education of modern times, even children in primary schools were blessed with the privilege of learning social studies.

With a great part of the subject involving history, it was a wonderment of stories and lessons as it aimed at adjusting the mindset of children and preparing them for the world, so that they do not repeat the same mistakes of the past.

By the educational standard of the modern world, a high schooler could already be regarded a scholar in this world.

Those lessons, Chiron put in place in this world.

In all of history, they had never been a time when a tyrant took over a government without the presence of opposition.

During such a time, the worst kind of oppositions always came when a country was invaded by another.

Human beings had a habit of ostracizing people they believed did not belong in the same group with them.

This discrimination always differed depending on the degree in difference.

In his former world, it was the same thing with racial discrimination and even political parties.

Chiron knew that this was going to be a problem.

Of course, he could always lead his men to war in order to display strength and power, suppressing the people.

But the question was, for how long?

How long would it take for a ‘Chosen one’ to rise, arousing the hearts of the people to seek ‘Freedom’?

Human beings were a very tenacious bunch.

This had been proven time and time again in history.

It would be total foolishness to believe that he could forever subjugate them.

Of course, the premise of cultivation in this world was a very convincing factor.

But then again, Chiron was not ready to be the final boss in someone else’s story.

Chiron had experiences unlike any other person.

He had experiences from his own previous life to learn from, experiences of the MC of the book’s life to learn from, and the wisdom entangled in stories from his previous life.

Taking all this into account, he decided to play a fast one on history.

Iceberg was a retired military man living his retirement in the capital city.

As an old time patriot of his country, celebrating the demise of the Vandora kingdom, he had unfortunately been amongst those that had drank from the king’s wine cellar.

That wine had inhibitors specially made by Chiron for cultivators, blocking their meridians and denying them access to their cultivation.

For an old timer like Iceberg that had nothing to live for except his hard earned bronze rank cultivation, this was a disaster.

Naturally, he sold his loyalty to Chiron with the blood oath crystal ball for his power to be given back to him once more.

The time of his take over had been a critical period.

And the capital of any city was always filled with hidden bigshots.

Fortunately, he had gotten rid of the core power of the country.

Of course, since none knew how an armless prince killed a hall filled with great generals, commanders, and even the king of the kingdom, those big shots stayed hidden in fear of his power.

Sometimes, the illusion of power could be used as a psychological prison to trap one’s enemies regardless of their strength.

Chiron used this time to consolidate his strength in the capital.

He had carefully gone through the list of those that had sworn loyalty to get back their cultivation and found Iceberg’s name.

As a bronze rank cultivator who was also a war veteran, he fit perfectly for the description of a lot of Chiron’s plans.

The first thing Chiron did was to use him and fish out those hidden cultivation bosses in the city.

Using different methods to either pull them to his side or kill them.

There was an old saying that had stood the annuls of time: A leader does not need to wield the blade but rather the mind and heart of those who do.

Chiron was not strong enough to fight off a bronze ranked cultivator.

His fight with knight Sheyi was prove of that.

But that did not mean that he couldn’t use another.

Iceberg, determined to prove his loyalty to his new master that owned his soul did as instructed of him.

After all, Chiron had his soul oath.

One might think that a patriot like Iceberg would be willing to die than work for an enemy state.

However, situations have proven that there were two kinds of people that feared death. Namely: Rich people and old people.

Iceberg fell under the latter.

Besides, Chiron was still offering him benefits.

The next plan, was the most critical one.

And that was the part were Chiron cheated history and even fate itself.

Since a rebellion could not be avoided, why not start one?

Besides, who better to start a rebellion than a known war veteran of the Chanland kingdom.

All Chiron did was give him a little men and two tesseracts for him to go and gather followers from around the country to his ‘Cause’.

Youths were a very zealous bunch.

They always searched for a great ‘Cause’: What to live for? Or better still, what to die for?

A call to arms to relieve the country in it’s time of need was indeed a good ‘Cause’. After all, there was the vague promise of a glorified death, and well measured taste of adventure.

At a time like this, who wouldn’t fall for Iceberg’s words?
