Chapter 351 Greatness of my Big brother
The King turned to the sight of Nora, Chiron's little sister.
It had been many months since she arrived at this place and now, she was slowly blooming into maturity.
As Chiron approached 12 years of age, she was already turning 10 years old.
in this world, the young ones mature rather very early. Nora was no exception to this.
Coupled with the fact that she was the princess of this kingdom and was practically pampered by the king and all the other chiefs, her body grew even faster and richer.
Of course, for most of the chiefs of the tribes, the reason she was taken care of as she was, was because of a mixture of both fear and respect for Chiron.
After all, this was a boy who was barely 12 years of age and had completely defeated an entire country. Such incredible strength was to be both envied and feared.
If Chiron so wished and he decided to use the country of Chanland against the Vandorian people, the losses would be extreme. Fortunately, he was not on the side of the enemy.
It was already late in the night. Nora wore a simple night dress for sleeping.
It was not so tight on her and was absolutely cute.
it even had designs that she specifically picked out for herself.
if one were to look properly, one would notice that the designs were all faces of Chiron.
King Richard also noticed this but chose not to speak about it. rumors had it that she had the servants make sculptors of her brother and kept them in her room.
It was to such an extent that she missed her big brother.
Nora walked up to the old man and sat by his side. "Tell me Grandfather, what is the matter?"
King Richard sighed loudly. He truly did not know how to express the well of emotions bothering him. However, Nora could tell that something was wrong. Since she couldn't make him talk, she thought of bringing up another subject.
She pointed to the statue far off in the distance. "One day, my big brother is going to have a statue like that one."
king Richard saw this and did not know how to reply to her statement.
After all, the statue she pointed to was the statue of Mud Morning. The one that had been said to have had a thousand Totems of different animals on his body.
This was the same stature that Chiron had gazed upon when he first came to the capital city of Kendou. (Author's note: Chapters 220 and 221).
This statue of a man had a snake on one side and a bear on the other.
It was an incredible statue and proof of the greatest time in the country's history when it was at its greatest power.
This statue could be seen from anywhere in the Capital city. It was just that tall.
"I asked the maids about that statue and they told many tales of Mud Morning. They said he was a great man with incredible capabilities," Nora chuckled a bit, "but it's such a shame!"
"What is a shame?" the King asked out of curiosity.
"It is a shame that he is nothing compared to my brother. Even with no arms, brother Chiron still defeated an entire country..." her expression was one of reverence and wonder, "...you know, he has always been that way! Ever since we were little. He has always produced miracles.
Even when Father did not believe in him, and the entire clan labeled him as an abomination. He always did something bigger than the previous one. And now, he has already conquered an entire country."
Nora turned to the King, "I don't what's bothering you, but I can tell you that Brother Chiron has a habit of doing things bigger than the last. A few years ago, it was beating a cultivator with the mere strength of being a human, and today it's taking a country. Tomorrow..." she giggled lightly as she wiggled her legs on her seat, "...Tomorrow might be the continent or even the world."
King Richard could not help but think about these words carefully.
Only those who have tasted true pain and suffering understand the pain of others.
The reason he had a million thoughts about his people was because he knew that he no longer had a way forward, and in truth, he was already ready to leave the thrown.
he was ready to hand it over.
However, his son Victor had shown promise and even now, continues to prove himself. However, Chiron had only been here a few months and had achieved greatness that even he in all the years never did.
He could not help but think that Chiron was destined for great things far beyond the borders of his kingdom. At the same time, he could not help but wonder about the possibilities. After all, if he were to give Chiron the throne, didn't that mean that Chiron could carry along his people to this journey of greatness, who knew? Maybe Chiron might become strong enough to even have a sit on the round table.
After all, he knew without a doubt that Chiron had caught the attention of the Zodiac families. Such talent was not going to go unnoticed. If Chiron was able to climb up their ranks and go to the new world, then it would mean that his Vandoria would enter another age of prosperity.
The king could not help but give a slight smile at this.
After all, he was a king. All he could do was dream and hope for his people, for his country.
However, another thought suddenly came to his mind.
"And what of you, Nora? What would you like?" He asked out of curiosity as his eyes subconsciously went to her chest, the location of her Dantain.
She had been born with a very rare S-Dantain, but her talent had been stolen.
Even now, he could still tell that the wound on her chest was yet to heal.
All the while, it had been the shaman's temple tending to her body so that she did not lose her cultivation.
The Yin and Yang Talent swapping flower still had its mark on her body.
"...Don't you have ambitions or wants... maybe dreams?" The king added.
Nora turned to him. Her gaze on him was as if she was looking at a fool. "Brother CHIRON!" she spoke clearly.
"Is that really all? Is that all you think about?" The king was flabbergasted by this.
Although he had to admit that Chiron had done some incredible things, he just did not understand what it was that made him so special.
Just then, the matching of a group of soldiers approaching the garden could be heard.
The king and Nora turned in that direction.
it was commander hardstone. He had just arrived from the Chanland Kingdom.
Immediately he arrived, he had not bothered with any other thing else and just came straight to the king.
On arriving, he saluted with a fist to his chest. The soldiers behind him also did the same thing.
"Yes, Commander Hardstone, I trust that your travels was well? What did you find in the Chanland Kingdom? how is my Grandson, Chiron?"
On hearing the subject topic was about her brother, Nora immediately leaned in.
Commander Hardstone coughed to clear his throat as he proceeded to tell his discoveries.
At first, he talked about the rebellion he had met and how Chiron swiftly dealt with it.
"What a genius!" The king complimented as the Commander talked. And then Commander Hardstone spoke of a different matter, intentionally skipping the blood pool and the sadistic thing he had seen Chiron do.
He went straight to talking about how Chiron now had his hands back.
"WHAT!!! his hands are back?" The King could not hold back and screamed out his surprise as he stood to his feet.
"Are you lying to me, Hardstone?" the king questioned.
"No, Your majesty! I would never dare such a sin. Death to my entire family if my words are false."
The king could not help but pause a bit as he turned to Nora.
Nora had a knowing smile on her face. As if to say "I told you so!"
The king nodded his head. All the while, they had called his Chiron the 'Armless Prince'. It was the major reason why most of the tribal chiefs protested against Chiron rising to the throne.
At this moment, Nora's words rang in his head and he could not help but see an incredible future for his people.
The king was not aware that Chiron had a habit of leaving death everywhere he went.
At the same time, someone within the walls had listened to the conversation between King Richard and Commander Hardstone.
This person smiled and nodded, "it seems the king has made his decision..."
(Author's note: Damn! i understand that many are angry because of the long break, but seriously. No golden ticket or gifts might make me give up guys)
