The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order - Chapter 593
Chapter 593: Establishing order (I) Chapter 593: Establishing order (I) “Oh, so I was right.” Cain smiled, not concealing his satisfaction.
He had been testing the waters with his accusations, but it seemed he had struck a nerve.
Immediately, he noticed the loathing and despair in Taron’s eyes, but instead of dwelling on it, he turned toward Eon, who was looking at him with an inquisitive gaze.
“I know that the previous Patriarch of the Umbra Clan, Auron Umbra, vanished nearly two hundred years ago, and many believe he is dead, but that doesn’t seem to be the case.
It appears that after defeating Auron, the Soul King and Taron kept him alive, perhaps to torture him or for some other purpose.” Cain paused, allowing the Patriarchs to process the information before continuing.
“The Umbra Clan has a secret dungeon hidden from the empire, located beneath a massive mountain range on the periphery of the Bahamut Sector.
That place was actually instituted by Auron.
The man used it to cage his enemies, and on the lowest floor, he had slaves from other races that he used to satisfy his twisted desires.
After Taron’s ascension to the position of Patriarch, the dungeon remained active, but the lowest floor was much more restrictive, and only he and another hidden figure visited it every few years.
If my guess is correct, the hidden figure was the Soul King and the one we will find in the deepest level of the dungeon is none other than Auron Umbra.” Taron’s shock and despair reached its peak as he heard Cain’s words.
He felt he was drowning deeper and deeper, and nothing he could do would raise him from the waters.
It was at this point that a frenzied expression appeared on his face, and he focused on his computer ring.
“Don’t you dare!” Eon shouted as he sensed Taron’s computer ring acting, but he was too late, and a message emerged.
Just as the emperor of the Deus Behemoth Empire was about to strike with ferocity, he heard Cain’s voice.
“There is no need to worry.
I have jammed all signals from the computer rings present.
It seems that he sent a self-destruction signal to the Umbra Secret Dungeon, but I blocked it.
Before we carry on, I think we should restrict the traitors.” Cain was calm, yet his words carried a defining tone for Taron and the Middle Divine Ascension woman from the Umbra Clan.
He called them traitors, and by the looks on the rest of the Patriarchs’s faces, they took his words as a verdict.
“Wait, please allow me…” Fear brought Taron’s sanity back, and just as he attempted to speak, he felt a sharp pain in his back and saw a sword pierce his chest.
The one who attacked was a woman with a fierce appearance, wolf ears, and capable of blending with space flawlessly to the point she took the True Titan by surprise.
Taron wanted to react, but the damage was too severe, and sword force flooded his body, sealing his energy.
The Patriarch of the Fenrir Clan was not the strongest, but her mastery over space was superb, and her sword skills were even better as she managed to sever Taron’s spine.
She was careful enough not to touch the man’s heart, crippling him yet keeping him alive.
The Middle Divine Ascension Cultivator saw how Taron was neutralized but she did not have time to worry about others as a colossal man appeared in front of her and grabbed her head with such overwhelming force and gravitational pressure that she could do nothing but pass out.
“Hmph, pathetic.” The Patriarch of the Gravitas Clan sneered as he sealed the mind of the warrior of the Umbra Clan before letting this one fall to the ground.
Cain and the other Patriarchs did not make a move, but they pushed their perception and focus to the limit, making sure everything would go flawlessly.
Eon’s eyes were cold as he saw the state of Taron and the other women, without a single shred of pity or mercy in his eyes.
He would have killed the duo, if not because they were more useful alive, at least until they could extract all the information from their minds.
After seeing the duo neutralized, Eon took a deep breath, and his aura began to rise higher and higher, drawing the attention of everybody present.

Lord Kabuto, Lord Zanginis, and all the other Patriarchs adopted solemn expressions as they focused on Eon, and it was clear to them that the man was ready to put order and fulfill his role as the emperor.
Once Eon opened his eyes, everybody adopted a respectful and submissive stance, ready to follow his command.
“Xina, Forkon, bring the duo to the Imperial Prison.
Then take control of the Imperial Army in Amazon and besiege the Umbra Clan’s Sacred Home, cutting all communication with the outside world.
All members of the Umbra Clan must surrender themselves and wait for further notice.
Any form of rebellion will be considered treason, and they will be executed on the spot.” The Patriarchs of the Fenrir Clan and Gravitas Clan nodded and without delay, they grabbed Taron and the Middle Divine Ascension women before flashing into the distance.
The warriors of the Volcano Clan behind Eon also bowed toward the emperor before rising into the sky and following Xina and Forkon.
After that, Eon turned toward Gorkon, and a complicated expression appeared on his face, but soon sharpness and determination emerged.
“Gorkon, every member of the Kraken Clan above the Wave King Rank must report back to your Sacred Home and remain there until further notice.
I expect a thorough investigation of how deeply the corruption of the Soul King infected your clan.” The Patriarch of the Kraken Clan could not help but sigh as he heard Eon’s words.
His entire clan was practically under house arrest, and that included him.
Still, the fact that Eon allowed him to carry out the investigation showed he was not a suspect of treason, at least not for now.
