Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

Chapter 277 Entering The Capital City Of The Chanland Kingdom.

?

However, the Chanland Kingdom were in celebration.

Many sang the praises of General Buckle. After all, he was the person responsible for the capture of Chiron.

He had suddenly become a national hero.

Many told stories of his brilliance.

Of course, many said that it was the fight of revenge he had gone for that had destroyed Chiron's troops.

Some said that he and Chiron had fought day and night under the cold, and Chiron had finally given up, admitting that he was a lesser man than the General.

Some of the rumours that went about even forgot the fact that Chiron had no hands and that his cultivation was much lower than that of General Buckle.

There was no way they could have fought day and night.

However, such was man. There believed what they wanted to believe.

Logic never made sense when hard facts slapped on the wrist.

Chiron was taken into the capital city.

However, General Buckle wanted to make a spectacle of this capture.

After all, this was the prince of another nation.

It was best to take absolute advantage of the moment to cement once influence.

This of course was a political move by General Buckle. He too had positions and people he wanted to ganer respect from.

Chiron was not taken straight to the palace, but was first paraded from the gates of the captial city.

He was pulled along the city streets bare footed by a chains bounded to his waist and his legs.

Far off on front of him, was the statue of the Bear mother being pulled into the city.

There was a story that stated that both the Chanland and the Vandora kingdoms were once one.

There both had similar cultures and similar traditions, including the use of Spirit Totems.

With the only difference being that the worship of the Bear mother was not the major religion in this place.

Although the king had declared that all other religions be cleared out of the capital, except for that of the Holy church, many people still believed in the old ways.

As the great statue of the Bear mother made of pure bright spirit stones was pulled along the city road, they were many that bowed before it.

Some of them knelt and made prayers to it.

Some others cried as it passed through. Apparently, they had missed their old ways.

Chiron took notes of all their reactions.

This was the reason why he had chosen the Bear mother as the statue to be built.

This was a different world. He couldn't actually use the statue of a horse as a gift like Odysseus did. It would have no significant or emotional appeal to the people.

However, the statue of the Bear mother touched hearts.

Chiron knew that in the original timeline of the book, the Holy church had already taken over the capital city by this time, leaving many of the old ways very dissatisfied about this.

Also, he took note of the kind of person General Buckle was.

General Buckle was a man that believed in climbing from the ground to the top.

He prefered to win merits than have it handed.

This was an opportunity to win the hearts of the people.

He was definitely going to take maximum advange of it.

After all, every nation had it's own internal political problems.

This was war. Chiron was not a fool to neglect it's political situation.

Although the statue of the Bear mother was shown much love as it entered the capital city, Chiron on the other hand was shown nothing of the sort.

Dirt was thrown at him by the crowd. Some threw feces at him, some threw rotten fruit.

Some, the guards protecting the procession intentional allowed to pour broken ceramics and mirrors before Chiron's path.

Chiron walked on them, his blood leaking from under his feet following a path behind him.

However, he endured it all, walking step by step towards the Palace.

On a high balcony in the palace, King Ash watched the proceedings below. His people were in a very joyous and festive period.

They played music and praised the achievement of capturing a prince of their elder nation that had oppressed them for so long.

As king Ash in very beautiful ceremonial wear watched the happenings below, a figure in a white robe slowly materialized from the ground behind him.

"I thought you had removed all other forms of religion in the Capital City?" Abel asked with a frown on his face.

"I have, but we both know how people are with their ties to their faith. Clearing the temples did not mean clearing their beliefs. It would naturally take many years before that change is sure." King Ash responded without turning back.

"Let the people have this one! With war and all that has happened, it's a tough time for them. After the celebrations, I will make sure the Statue is destroyed." King Ash added.

Abel nodded, "I will only accept this because you insist. Also, do not forget! The holy Church will handle the Evil child."

As he finished speaking, he disappeared once more into the earth.

The statue of the Bear mother was brought before the high balcony of the Palace.

King Ash raised his hands to the crowd and they the crowd settled down.

"My Brothers and Sisters of the Chanland Kingdom," his voice was loud and commanding, drowning out the last of the noise.

"This is a time of glorious achievement for us as a people. For a long time, before my father, before my father's father, we have been oppressed by the Vandora kingdom. Sending Yearly tributes of our hard work tilling our mother land to please their Pallettes. But No more shall we suffer under their thumb!!!"

"YES!!!" The crowd shouted out their hearts many of them clapping and shouting. Some of them crying tears of joy.

As he gave his speech, Chiron noticed something beneath his feet.

A head materialized before him.

It was Abel's.

Abel had a cocky smile on his face, "so you are the evil child that messed Sheyi up!"
