Chapter 81: The True Nature of the Knight Warrior Bloodline
************
"I knew I would find you here, Lady Lorraine."
Altron said as he crossed his arms around his chest as he looked at the young woman who seated on one of the trees behind in this eerie place that he only just got to know about it because of this woman.
He sighed as he looked around in this place and even though he shouldn't be scared since he had experienced in the battlefield ever since he was young and was exposed to different kinds of schemes and dangerous places where his father, the Marquis, would take him to his expeditions for experience.
However, right now, within this vast eerie place, his eyes winch because he could tell that there are some stories to tell about this place that he didn't know existed within the confines of this academy.
'I have been a former student and now an instructor, but this is the first time that I have known of this place. Is it because of this woman?'
Sometimes, Altron couldn't help but felt anxious whenever he was within the vicinity of this woman but since he had known her for three years and not only that, because of his bloodline powers that he could determine that she wasn't a threat but rather, an important ally.
Especially, since this woman knew about Ezekiel.
At first, he became wary of this woman since she is the one who accused Ezekiel in the future events that he had saw within his dreamscape.
Before, Altron planned to keep an eye on about this woman and investigate her privately, but he didn't expect that she would first come to him and boldly stated what she needs.
<= .... "Let me get straight to the point, First Young Master Altron of Marquis Chevalier household. If you agree to back me up and act as my guardian during my stay as a student here at the academy, in exchange, I have some information regarding your youngest little brother, Ezekiel. Before you accused me of something, why not try that [hidden trait] of yours to examine me? I'm pretty sure that I'm telling the truth." ..... >=
When she boldly stated those words from three years ago when she reached him out in his office at the academy, he almost got startled and became more wary of her that time since he didn't know how she knew about the Chevalier's bloodline hidden traits.
However, at that time, Altron couldn't trust Lorraine's words about Ezekiel since based on the future event that he had witness through his dreams, this woman is involved in Ezekiel's future event demise that would happen, if Ezekiel was still here.
But because of the incident happened three years ago, with his sudden death that Altron couldn't accept that fact because it's too much for him to think that his little brother would die something like that.
That's why, without any further, Altron unleashed the hidden trait or much likely, the true nature of the Knight Warrior bloodline and he used it to check if Lorraine was telling the truth or not.
<< ..... [ENIGMA'S JUDGEMENT] ... >>
This hidden trait doesn't usually appear in every generation of the Chevalier and only those few chosen ones could have unleashed this hidden trait from the Knight Warrior bloodline powers.
The most common traits that most of the direct bloodline members of the Chevalier household could manifest such as; AURA MASTER, SWORDSMASTER, ARMAMENTS, MARTIAL COMBAT and others related to Physical Strength.
This were the only common knowledge that the whole world knew about it, but they never knew about the hidden traits of the Knight Warriors.
The [Enigma's Judgement] is a perception type ability that grants the ability to determine if the person was telling the truth or not, even in their deepest consciousness, this ability could see-through all of it.
Not only that, but this ability could also vaguely see about the person's past, present and future.
That's why, when he activate this power and to check on Lorraine's.... He almost got his eyes widened in shock.
'No way, the worldline's heroine? Like in... some sort of novel that Felicity used to read in her spare time? Does this mean that.... This world runs like some sort of novel?'
Having this hidden ability sure helps a lot sometimes but for Altron, this kind of ability isn't something that could be used, unlike the others.
There is a saying that; "The heavier the skill, the heavier the price it takes."
It would be alright if it's just vaguely looking through to the past, present and the future but if one's using its full potential, that could be dangerous.
Especially, if completely looking through at the person's future could drain too much of the caster's life force since perceiving future events in a full clearing would be the price to be paid by the caster.
That's why [Enigma's Judgement] is a hidden trait from the Knight Warrior bloodline and could only be unleashed within a few chosen direct descendants from the Chevaliers.
Long story short, this ability is a dangerous one and if it is leaked to the public, the Chevaliers would be in danger.
There is also another skill that comes by when someone manifest the hidden trait of [Enigma's Judgement] and that skill is called [Shackle's Oath].
This is actually a restriction spell, and its main purpose was for the ones who manifest the hidden trait to remain silent about the information in regards about the hidden traits of the Knight Warrior bloodline.
When someone failed to obey and tried to take advantage of this hidden trait for their own greed, punishment from the [Shackle's Oath] will activate and it's the caster's life will perished without a trace because their entire existence would be nothing more than a speck of dust to be seen.
Even writing about it also restricts the user and could only know about this information whenever a direct descendant manifest a hidden trait, a mysterious guide will appear in the form of a dream.
And that's explained why Altron is the one who could manage to see-through the future events in a form of dream because he was chosen to manifest that hidden trait.
As for the reason? He doesn't know.
