Chapter 362
Derek had no idea, and when he looked at Connor, Connor shook his head slightly to say that he didn’t know either, and then he went to place one of his hands where he could see one of the Acrium’s veins and he began to extract it.
Miguel then said to Elias: “Kelan might know this, but even if this world already had dungeons, we don’t know how long the Cradle of Magic has been hiding its replacement heart here, maybe he chose this world from the beginning to protect it.”
Elias then said to him: “You’re right, only the core of this world would be able to answer our questions.”
He then looked at Derek and he said to him: “And to answer what you asked us Derek, no, this energy cannot be replicated, but maybe we’ve been wrong all along and dungeons will continue to appear even without this energy source, or maybe when the heart of the Cradle of Magic would be changed, it will decide to recreate another copy and it will choose to hide it here again. Unfortunately, we don’t know much more about it at the moment.”
Miguel then said to Derek : “However, there is one thing that is certain, it is that our top priority is to ensure that the Cradle of Magic remains intact, otherwise it will be the end of our universe as we know it.”
Derek then told them getting worried again : “Connor is the only one who can guide anyone here… I don’t want him to be in danger again.”
Elias smirked and he told him: “Don’t worry, this world is under our protection now, the Warrior Spirits will protect you, we will take care of any threats if there are any before you even notice them.”
And while all 4 of them were in this secret chamber, Solomon who was very busy reorganizing the King’s army and the rebellion’s army so that they could all work together ended up taking his courage in both hands and he went to see Liam and Ian to ask them for a favor.
Ian, who after talking with Caleb last night, had realized that Miguel and Elias really needed him, had started meditating to try to increase the reserve of black particles that he was able to store and he was training himself to handle them so that he would be able to absorb them faster and thus be effective in healing the wounds inflicted by those black flames when the war would start.
And so when Solomon knocked on their door it was Liam who opened it for him and when he entered in their room and saw that Ian was in meditation he asked Liam hesitantly : “Look, I know you’re all getting ready for the war against the Titans and that you’ve already saved the demon territory from Lilith’s and the Titans’ grasp… But what about the Queen and the human territory, did Kevin tell you something about it ?”
Liam smiled at him and he said to tease him: “A demon who worries about human territory who would have thought it, right ?”
But when he saw Solomon’s tormented look and now that he knew his feelings for the Queen he said much more seriously : “Don’t worry, we’ll take care of it too, with Kevin and the others we planned to gather at Evy’s hideout tonight to put a plan of action in place.
Kevin had planned to go save the Queen alone, but now that we are sure that the King is a pawn of Cassandra, it is very likely that he is surrounded by Titans and they also have a lot of Trinium at their disposal, so they have powerful weapons and we can’t act lightly.
Moreover, we are now sure that the chains that prevent the Queen from using her powers are made of Corium, and if we act too hastily, those bastards could decide to administer a lethal dose to her or her sister.
And besides, with the hindsight and knowledge we have now, we’re pretty sure that Xander was killed by hydra venom. Just look at how a strong dose of this venom knocked out a God, how could Xander have survived it… See, there is a lot to consider before leading the assault on the palace, but we’re working on it.”
Solomon then told him : “The King of the humans is surely already aware that the rebellion has won and that the power in place is changing hands, he must prepare himself at this very moment, and the longer we wait the more in danger she is, he may even decide to eliminate her if he judges that she is no longer of any use to him.”
Liam sighed and he told him: “Solomon, he won’t make that kind of decision hastily, right now the Queen is much more useful to him alive than dead and he will probably use her until the end.”
Solomon clenched his fists and he asked him: “Can I attend the meeting tonight, with my men we will help you as you helped us… Please talk to Kevin for me, okay.”
Liam then leaned against the wall nonchalantly and he said to him: “I know that the Queen is very important to you, and Kevin had no intention of keeping you away from our battle plan, so of course you can attend the meeting tonight, it will even be with great pleasure.”
He added when he saw Solomon relax a bit: “To tell you the truth, he said he needed your uncle’s talents and he said he needed as many people as possible to attack the palace.
Instead of being discreet as he had originally planned, he decided that it was best to attack them on all fronts at once, the Warrior Spirits will give us a hand, it should go well, you’ll see.”
Solomon finally sighed with relief and he said to him: “Thank you, without you this wouldn’t have happened, you were the only one who kept supporting us when everyone thought the demons were responsible for Xander’s death.
You were always our link with the humans and you knew how to preserve it even when everyone was against it, we will never forget what you did for us.”
