Chapter 809 Killing It Or Turning It Into A Guardian Beast?

And in return, the jumper gave me a fierce gaze, warning me to not interfere again in his schemes.

But dude… Did you forget? All of you here were part of my forces! I could decide whatever I wanted and you wouldn’t have any saying about this.

“It’s true…” Legend sighed, “I got it once, but took it away and stored it inside my inventory.”

“See? He got it!” the jumper acted as if I mistreated Legend or something.

“Show it to me,” I demanded, “on what scale did your race distribute these stones?”

Legend wasn’t a big general, and his family was big but they gained the wrath of the higher ups and the royals, ending up losing them all.

So it didn’t add up actually, making me wonder how they controlled these stones distribution thing.

“Any commander over an army of ten thousand and above will have these,” he took out a necklace, with central blue stone in the middle of a golden chain, “this is the soul heart stone, considered the lowest in the high grade soul stones.”

“How does it work?” Angelica from the side glared at this necklace with greed and envy.

“I wear it, and if I get such a curse, the stone will shine repeatedly,” he wore it but the stone remained calm.

“What a regret! I wanted to see it shining,” Angelica complained, and I gave her a hopeless look.

Wanting to see it shine? It only meant this dude would be about to get possessed.

“Give it to me,” I asked, and when I got it, I turned around and went downstairs.

“I’m coming!” Hilary got what I was going to do, and also Angelica jumped in.

Gradually, all of them came down towards the second floor. I didn’t mind such an audience for the magic that would follow.

“Lily…” Legend acted as of his age for the first time, showing his shock and worry despite knowing all about what happened to her.

“Here, let me do it,” Hilary stepped in and tried to grab the necklace, but I didn’t let her do it.

I simply blocked her and moved, placing the necklace around the neck of the unconscious lady with scales.

She was sleepy and weak, not resisting me or giving signs. But the moment the necklace got around, her body stiffened and arched, and her eyes opened wide, while the necklace started to shine.

“Red light?!!” Legend was surprised, “this… You truly managed to get her cured without killing her… How did you do that?”

“Told you pal, using one of my treasures,” I said while my attention was all over Lily and the necklace. She was acting weirdly, not like what I expected to be frank.

I thought the stone would just shine blue as Legend said. But her body reacted in such a fierce way and the red light made me worry a little bit.

Did I miss part of that damn foul soul or what?

“Is this normal?” I couldn’t help but ask.

If there were still pieces of that soul here, I’d just use my scissors again.

But my scissors never failed me before. How come it would miss his target this time?

“The ones being affected with the curse would have their soul stone shine in the regular colour, but those freed from the curse would have their stone shine in red colour,” Legend said before adding to reassure me, “this is quite normal.”

“Looking so worried about her, aren’t you?” Hilary was acting annoyingly here, making decide to ignore her words and actions for now.

It wasn’t time for her to act like this. This wasn’t just related to Lily, it was related to the lots of the Hectors I had.

They were… Just the right sharpening tool I had to forge stronger forces. If I lost them, then I had to remodel lots of my plans, losing too much of my already expected futuristic power.

And I simply hated the idea of losing such aid and support to my side.

“So she is fine?” I asked again, and this time the look over Legend’s face didn’t reassure me.

“Sorry lord, but this is the first time for me to witness or hear about someone who got cursed and cured from it without losing his life.”

What he said enlightened me. Indeed that was the case. His race kept killing those infected with such foul souls, ending up having none escaped alive before.

So in Lily’s case, this was something Legend never saw or heard about.

.

And that meant I had to watch Lily from the side and get to see what would happen to her.

“Now, as the little princess is all sleepy, what about our monster?” The jumper threw such a mean comment as always, but he got a point here.

“That… Is something I also wanted to hear your opinions about,” I turned to all before adding, “shall we kill it and gain the benefit of the five beasts together? Or should we let it live?”

“Let it live? Didn’t you say before this was all a dangerous scheme done by those mysterious souls?” the spearhead asked, and his words gained the recognition and approval of many others.

“I have a way,” I slowly said, “but I need to hear your opinion about it. Will we kill it or leave it to be our future guardian?”

They looked back at me in silence while we all returned to the deck of my chariot again. They all knew this choice was hard.

On one side, killing this beast would allow our forces to get double the effect than just killing four. But it also meant losing such a mighty guardian from being on the side of our kingdom.

I told them that thanks to this guardian on the side of the Hectors, not a single race dared to come and touch them.

And that alone was enough to speak about how important such a beast was. Legend also spoke and said something that also matched what I just said.

This guardian was really priceless. And we just had one that could turn into one.
