*BOOM!!!*
The Explosion was loud and deafening. Besides, this was the Core of a red Cored beast.
It was of no ordinary level.
To say that it could flatten the Palace was just putting it cute.
It was a very dangerous thing to handle.
Luckily, Emma had taken it an thrown it far off into the sky.
The explosion sent waves all around the Capital.
However, most people were not shocked by this.
This was the same reaction Chiron's men had about the explosion.
However, Commander Hardstone and his men were shaken by this, even activating their Spiritual energy and Beast Totems.
Instinctively, they thought that they were under attack, and took on battle mode immediately.
However, vanguard with her very observant eyes could see that things were different for Chiron's men.
Those that were standing guard still stood guard, those that were sleeping only adjusted comfortably in their positions, and those that were playing card games on the table did not even act as if the sudden explosion was a disturbance to their game.
"What in the...!?"
Captain Timi wrapped his hand around his brother's neck before he could finish his swearing.
"Don't worry big bro! It is just Prince Chiron going through some minor troubles with his cultivation," he chuckled lightly.
"Huh!?" Commander Hardstone could not believe what he had just heard from his younger brother.
"MINOR!? That explosion big enough to take half the capital that is several kilometers wide was MINOR!?" Commander hardstone thought to himself but did not voice it out.
"What do you mean?" He asked instead, and he did so in an obviously difficult to form subtle tone.
"don't worry, Its nothing. Its just explosion of some red beast cores!" captain Timi added.
However, that did not elevate commander Hardstone's worry any more. In fact, it increased it.
"This is like the fourteenth Red beast core that has been destroyed this week alone!"
"HUH!?" Commander Hardstone's heart broke even further.
This was the wealth of a nation and Chiron was squandering it like he was eating bad pop corn and spitting them out.
It begged the curiosity of the kind of Cultivation that Chiron was engaging in.
Commander Hardstone knew that Chiron had certain secrets. After all, he had known Chiron the longest and had seen him when he opened up a gate to the nether realm in the middle of a fight.
But he did not think that it was this critical that Chiron even found Red beast cores as play things.
Even if he was not going to look at the cost of one Red core or the danger that the core possessed, it would be of mercy if he at least looked at the several tens of years of Toil that the beast cultivated to create one.
Such a waste was a tear in his heart. Were all conquerors such wide spenders?
This thought process plagued his heart.
Just then, an Orc ran into the room. Immediately he got to Captain Timi, he gave the usual Military salute of the Vandorian Army.
This surprised the Commander, but he kept his mouth shut.
Only those of the vandorian army could do the salute.
If the Orc was doing it, then it only meant that he was now recognized as a member of the army.
Of course this was something most would oppose to, but commander Hardstone could see in his younger brother's eyes that it was a normal expected thing.
This meant that Chiron had truly integrated an Orc tribe into the Kingdom.
if this was another time, he might have voiced his complaint about this, but this was Prince Chiron Chivalry the Conqueror of the one nation that had given the Vandora Kingdom headaches for many years.
The same person that had conquered the said nation in under one night.
"Captain Timi! it is the rebellion. They are finally on the move. Right now, they are already heading towards the Capital."
The orc stated the problem immediately.
The moment Commander Hardstone heard this, he could guess what was happening.
Chiron had defeated the nation by destroying its head, and even the governing body of the country, but that did not mean that he had truly defeated the country.
Of course for the capital, it had been easy because of the blend he put in the wine that took away many people's cultivation.
They had to swear loyalty to him to get their pain staking cultivation back.
However, the question remained.
What of the rest of the Kingdom?
Surely, they was going to be a rebellion of sorts.
Many were not satisfied with his rule and leadership.
This was one thing every great conqueror must face.
this was especially true in a country of people that had strong national pride.
The head of their king on the palace walls could one deter them for so long.
This nation was strong and thriving.
With many Generals and commanders dead, those young ambitious officers could take to the stage.
With the claim of taking back their nation from the invaders, it was a piece of cake for them to gather people to their sides and launch a rebelion.
In every history of conquering a nation, such was bound to happen.
In fact, commander Hardstone was impressed that it took so long.
Naturally, when the news spread that Chiron had conquered the nation's head, such a rebellion was supposed to already be at his door step.
After all, it was best to strike while the iron was hot.
Hearing what captain Timi said about the continuous destruction of Red cores, it made sense that the Rebellion were afraid of the kind of power that Chiron wielded.
It seemed however that they could hold it back no longer.
Regardless of power, they were going to attack.
Just as the Orc reported the situation, a voice was heard from behind.
"Good! just at the right time!"
This was a very familiar voice.
Every one turned to it.
Chiron wore clean white robes, and his demeanor was one of a scholar and not a Prince or a conqueror. However, the words from his mouth revealed his true nature.
"I am currently in lack of sufficient Blood for a new pool. I am glad for the donation..."
