Chapter 287 Breaker

Chapter 287 Breaker

"Rowan Kuranes, there are many things happening in the outside world that you don't know about, your name has encircled the Empire and beyond. Your days are numbered."

"Is that so? You meant my bounty, right? When I told my mother I was going to be famous one day, this was not what I was expecting, I will tell you that." Rowan rubbed his chin as if he was thinking and then he said to Fury, "Oh don't worry, if that is the information you have got for me, it is outdated, and as you said, everyone knows"

The millions of faces scoffed, "like always most of you all, only see the surface of a calm sea but not the unfathomable depth it carries, if for an instant, you think your bounty by two Royal houses is as simple as you believe, then you are more ignorant than I first thought, and in principle I will have to kill you right now."

Rowan's eyes brightened, it was hard to keep the anger from his blood from erupting and coupled with the anger emanating from his serpent, it placed him in a tight position, but he still smiled and replied,"That's a little bit harsh, isn't it? After all, I am sure you have a whole organization feeding you information until you are choked full with it. You would have to excuse those like me, who have to do everything by themselves, and real truths are buried deep and finding them is harder than finding a needle in a haystack"

"Why do you think that is? I will tell you, it is because the real truth only belongs to those with the power to hold it and shape it to their will." Fury replied, and the Incarnation of the sun began to shrink, until the body of Fury appeared.

His appearance was still flawless as his white robes shone, and the red belt on his waist sparked of danger, his nine - colored eyes held mysteries, and the small smile he had on the corner of his lips showed his inexhaustible confidence he had in his abilities.

The entire time for their conversation took thirteen seconds.

At their level that was becoming closer to those of the gods, the timescale they operated on was both vast in scope and tiny in its intricacies. Where mortals would measure each moment in seconds, Rowan and Fury could do so much in a single second.

The current Agility Attributes of Rowan was enough to demonstrate just a bit about the massive difference such a change would have on an individual. There would come a time soon when Rowan should be able to stretch a single second to appear as long as a day.

Also, the most important factor was the language they were using, which was Medan. This language comprises more than just spoken words, and it could pass across intents, and if the speaker wished, he could pass across entire memories in a single moment using just a few words.

"There is much you don't know about yourself, Rowan Kuranes. Let me tell you a story about your history because for a man to truly understand his place in this world, he must know where he comes from, don't you think?"

Rowan's eyes narrowed, Fury was beginning to play word games with him, regardless of what he spoke about and whatever so-called truths he professed, it must surely have hidden hooks within, he had been confident enough to tell Rowan that truth belonged to the powerful to do and shape as they wish, Rowan knew this man considered himself as the most powerful.

Nevertheless, speaking with him also bought him the time he needed, and he could also learn something new he was not formally aware of before.

Rowan replied to Fury, "I think you love the sound of your own voice, but who am I to tell you when to stop talking. I only ask that you don't bore me."

Fury frowned and that expression disappeared from his face so fast only Knowledge Well captured it, but he began to speak, "The first time your bloodline was introduced into the Royal Kuranes Family was 20,000 years ago and that child had no name, he gave birth to Bardolf Kuranes who gave birth to Nel Kuranes who gave birth to Meru Kuranes, who gave birth…."

Fury began speaking faster, as he began compressing twenty thousand years of bloodline history to Rowan, he called out every single name in Rowan's genealogy, "and finally, your father, Grigori Kuranes who gave birth to you Rowan Kuranes."

Rowan did not make any move, but his head pounded with a loud thump when he heard the name of his father, the Third Prince, like a series of snapshots, memories began to emerge from deep within his mind. Using Knowledge Well he stored them all, but he knew one thing, what he was remembering was not his memories, they were…old.

Old was the only word he could use to describe these memories, and he placed them aside as he focused on Fury because another of his consciousness just went to sleep, and he was down to nine.

Rowan was shaken as he whispered,"Why are you telling me this?"

"I tell you your history, so you understand yourself, the duty of your bloodline on the surface is of a managerial position, but underneath it is to serve something more than you can imagine. Rowan Kuranes, the duty of your bloodline variant to the family is that of a Breaker."

Fury's tone turned wistful, "The history of your family tree I just told you was just the surface and even this is very hard to find, but the position of a Breaker as your family bloodline variant is a detail that is even harder to uncover."

Fury's eyes drilled into his own, "It was by chance and careful deduction that I came across it and it lined up with another of my investigations I've been conducting."

He paused and scrutinized Rowan, "By that blank expression on your face, I can see you don't understand what I mean. By all right, I should not be telling you this, but my instincts are telling me otherwise, and so I am choosing to do so."

Inside his head Rowan thought, "I am going to kill you."

Rowan beamed at him
