The Epic Tale of Chaos vs Order

Chapter 588 Unveiling the truth (II)

Confusion appeared in the minds of the Patriarchs as they received a file. Cain had shocked them so much that all of them were overwhelmed by curiosity, and despite the shocking events and the many questions in their minds, they could not wait and opened the file, and immediately their eyes widened.

The message contained several video files that depicted many of the events that happened inside the Astral Bloodline Realm. That included the initial battle when the Umbra Clan ambushed them, followed by the appearance of the Soul King using Norkuo as a battle vessel, and how Cain was forced to run and chase by the Soul King, Rober, and Talon.

There was also clear evidence of the state of the warriors of the Kraken Clan, making it obvious to everybody they were nothing more than puppets under the control of the Soul King.

The events inside the Mind Cosmos Chamber were omitted, but everyone saw how Cain returned to the Astral Bloodline Chamber. He did not show the battle, but some pictures depicted the fate of the warriors of the Umbra Clan and Kraken Clan.

”YOU!”

Gorkon Kraken shouted with rage as he focused on Cain, and his entire body trembled due to the overwhelming emotions flooding his mind and soul. He had just seen the corpses of all the Kraken Clanʼs younger generation members that entered the Astral Bloodline Realm, and it was clear who was responsible.

Of course, the Patriarch of the Kraken Clan also saw the Soul King using Norkuoʼs body as a battle vessel and the control this one had over the members of the Kraken Clan. But one thing did not erase the other, not to mention that Robert was the manʼs grandson, so the pain he felt right now was overwhelming.

Despite the immense rage and emotional distress, the Patriarch of the Kraken Clan showed great control, as he only shouted toward Cain but did not make a move.

Cain focused on the Patriarch of the Kraken Clan, and his eyes were sharp as he focused on this one. His eyes glowed with red light as he stared at the man with a fearless expression.

”If you want to blame someone, blame your clanʼs corruption, allowing someone like Norkuo to make dealings with a Dark King and bringing this one into the Astral Bloodline Realm.

Or even better, blame the man who put his clan at the command of the Soul King, knowing what it would mean to yours. After all, no matter how strong the Soul King was, I doubt he was able to overcome Robert and the other eight without help.”

Shock appeared in the people who heard those words. Only the Patriarchs had obtained Cainʼs file, so they did not know what was happening, but anything related to a Dark King could only mean catastrophe.

Of everyone, the one whose shock was the greatest by far upon hearing the name of the Soul King was none other than Taron Umbra, the Patriarch of the Umbra Clan and the only one of the Patriarchs who did not receive Cainʼs file.

The man did not know what was happening but upon hearing the name of the Soul King, he knew things were not good, and saw how all the Patriarchs focused on him, with Gorkon Krakenʼs eyes practically spouting rage and killing intent.

”Are the humanʼs words true!?”

The Patriarch of the Kraken Clan shouted with pure rage as he turned his hatred toward the Patriarch of the Umbra Clan. Even amidst his rage, he was able to analyze Cainʼs words, and they were right.

The Soul King was powerful, but his strength was far from enough to subdue Robert and the other eight geniuses of the Kraken Clan alone, so someone must have helped him, and that could not be anyone else but Talon and the rest of the warriors from the Umbra Clan.

Taron Umbra felt immense pressure and his heart was beating like crazy, but he was an old man thousands of years old, and knew how to twist the truth.

”I do not know what you are all talking about, and I refuse to answer baseless accusations without evidence, especially from a foreigner.”

Instead of trying to defend himself, Taron chose to feign ignorance, while at the same time discrediting any information Cain was offering and making sure his condition as a member of a different race was taken into the spotlight.

Cainʼs eyes were cold as he saw the tactic of the man and how the animosity and inquisitive stares in the Patriarchs began to weaken upon hearing those words. He had to admit that the man was cunning, but it was not like he came unprepared.

”I am accusing you of being a traitor, aligning with the Soul King. Here is all the information that I got from your warriorsʼ computer rings.”

He once again used the [A.I. Chip Module], this time sending the information to the Patriarch of the Umbra Clan, so this one could not feign ignorance about the charges against him.

Taron Umbra saw the file that arrived at his computer ring, and with his cognitive abilities, he was able to go through everything in a matter of seconds. Immediately his eyes narrowed as the file not only had video depicting everything that happened inside the Astral Bloodline Realm but also records of the communications between Talon and several obscure figures.

Although Talon made great efforts to hide it, the [A.I. Chip Module] was able to decode all the information and easily find out the conspiracy between this one, the Soul King, and several higher-ups of the Umbra Clan.

The evidence was incredibly damning, but even in those conditions, Taron was able to maintain a composed expression and he glanced at Cain with disdain.

”Puny human, you have clearly shown great hacking skills by infiltrating the computer rings of the warriors of my Umbra Clan. Who is to say that you did not manufacture all this to hide the fact you killed my people and that of the Kraken Clan only to hide the crimes of the Solis Clan and Zanginis Clan? After all, everybody knows the greedy nature of your race.”
