The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 589
Chapter 589: Unveiling the truth (III) Chapter 589: Unveiling the truth (III) Once again, Taron showed great scheming abilities as he deflected the topic, pushing back to Cain and, this time, putting him in the role of the cunning and greedy evil human.
Cain’s eyes remained cold as he stared at Taron, but he felt how the attention of the Patriarchs of the Ten Great Bloodlines was turning to him, while their inquisitive gaze at Taron was growing weaker.
Just as that happened, two figures appeared to the right and left of Cain.
They were none other than Lord Kabuto and Lord Zanginis. The two old men stood next to the Godslayer Human as unsurpassable mountains, their eyes focused on Taron.
Taron’s smile froze as he felt the eyes of the Patriarchs of the Zanginis Clan and Solis Clan, but he could not back down and needed to hit the iron when it was hot if he wanted to get over this predicament.
“Kabuto and Zuko, I am not saying that you were part of whatever scheme the greedy human did, but you should question your people and find out the truth.
Remember who your people are and where your loyalty and faith should reside.” Once again, Taron tried to play the racial card, pushing the hearts of the Patriarchs toward the Deus Behemoth Empire and away from Cain, but those words had no effect on the duo.
“Hmph, I trust this boy just as I trust a son.
And I definitely trust him more than a cunning piece of trash like you,” Lord Zanginis’ voice was cold, his eyes sharp as he stared at Taron.
“For me, it’s simpler.
If my son says you are a traitor, then you are a fucking traitor, and I will have your head,” Lord Kabuto’s response was much more brutal and colder than Lord Zanginis’, and the old man seemed ready to jump toward Taron and rip him to pieces.
Taron was shocked by the attitude of the two old men and could not help but feel at a loss as he did not know how to react when facing two people who simply did not act according to reason.
“Stop.” However, before a battle could start, Cain raised his hand and stopped the two old men.
While he wanted to get rid of the Umbra Clan’s upper echelon, there was a right and a wrong way to do it.
He wanted it to be clean and for that, he needed the support of the entire Deus Behemoth Empire.
Cain took a step forward and faced Taron with calmness before softly nodding.
“You are right, all the information I have shown until now can be manufactured, but you are sorely mistaken if you believe that is all I have.” Taron could not help but clench his fists as he saw Cain’s eyes and felt that something was wrong.
A flash of killing intent appeared in his eyes as he wanted to shut the young human down, but trying to do that while this one was flanked by Zuko and Kabuto was impossible.
“Emperor, I hope you can stop this as those accusations are already putting a great stain on my clan’s honor, and I refuse to hear anything else.
I expect you to be the voice of reason and put an end to this charade.” Since killing Cain was not possible, Taron turned to Eon, hoping he would act and finish everything.
As long as things cooled down, he could always twist things to his favor and make sure the truth never came to light.
Eon’s eyes narrowed as he heard the words of Taron.
He knew that something was wrong, but while the file Cain delivered was incriminating, there was truth in the words that it could be fake.
However, before Eon Vulcano could come to a decision, Cain also turned to him.
“Venerable Emperor of the Deus Behemoth Empire, I understand that there is a lot on your mind right now, but I would like to ask you a question.” Eon’s eyes narrowed as he saw the calm expression on Cain’s face.
He knew that saying yes would mean he was in some sense siding with the young human, but he was not someone who would let lies flourish just to hide his insecurities or due to worrying about the opinion of others.
“Go ahead.” Taron clenched his teeth when he saw how Eon decided to hear Cain’s words, and while he wanted to intervene, if he were to do it, it would be the same as disrespecting the entire Deus Behemoth Empire.
Cain glanced at Taron with coldness but did not waste time and adopted a respectful stance as he spoke.
“According to the records of your past feats, you once faced the Soul King.
Could you tell me more about it?” Eon did not know where Cain wanted to arrive, but he answered the question of the young man.

“I indeed faced the Soul King once, hundreds of years ago, when we were both just Early Divine Ascension Masters.
It was an extremely dangerous battle and I nearly lost my life.
I faced his soul invasion spells, but managed to force him to escape once my fists destroyed most of his internal organs.” Cain immediately smiled as he heard that, since if Eon had endured the soul invasion spells from the Soul King, then everything was over for the Umbra Clan.
He waved his hand, and a small marble with countless runes appeared.
“I wonder if you could tell me, to whom the soul force in this treasure belongs.” The Soul King had used that marble to contain his soul force for hundreds of years, and even if it was gone, that did not mean the soul aura imprinted for centuries would fade from one day to the other.
The marble flew on its own toward Eon, who immediately marveled at the complexity of the runes in it.
However, his eyes focused, and he sent his Ego Wave into the marble.
Eon’s eyes widened as a sense of shock appeared before a burst of killing intent emerged to the point that the air began to set ablaze as he turned toward Taron and the group from the Umbra Clan.
