20 Chapter 20: bloodstone

Akina gritted her teeth and tried to get out of the cage at any cost.

Ryota had the same feeling, and although he tended to plan with his mind rather than his heart, he hated this type of person the most, and wanted to see this woman and her followers dead.

The most calm person among them was Kotaro, but this was what they called it the calm before the storm, if not for the truth of the cage that bound him, he would have given this lady and her followers a proper death, and for now he was only suppressing his anger for a later time.

The guards didn't care about any of the two's screaming and proceeded to do as they were asked.

Someone came in front of the first old man, he was carrying a three-foot-tall sword, he pulled it from its scabbard and revealed its silvery luster.

The knight grabbed his sword with both fists and raised it above his head towards the top, tightening his power on him. He showed killing intent and after he was ready, he dropped his attack perpendicular to his target and drew a curved arc cutting forward.

The sword pierced "slashh" The sound of tearing flesh was heard loudly, "splattered" and a spherical object fell onto the crimson blood pool.

The red carpet was dyed with reddish blood, and a fountain of blood formed in the place of the head that was not present there anymore.

The old man's corpse fell over the basin and all the blood that bled from his neck was received, as the smell of blood filled the air.

Silence swept through the hall, only the sound of blood coming out of the dead old man's body.

The features of the three friends were pale, they didn't even dare to breathe at that moment, and a cold sweat erupted on their bodies, although they had expected something like this when the woman ordered a short while ago to kill the three elders, but seeing the thing directly had another impact.

Since these three left the city, no, but before that, since they came out of their mothers' wombs, they have never encountered the situation of someone killing someone in front of them, they had watched Cesar killing monsters during the previous two years and they did too, but how do these animals compare to humans Highest in rank, as for Kotaro, he also seen a harsh situation to his mother before and her neck was butchered, but even that, he did not testify it directly, But now he had seen with his own eyes the true meaning of murder and the harsh face of the road he wanted to walk on

If he wants to achieve his goal, he must first reconsider his calculations and be receptive to the fact that this will be a path stained with blood, not only the blood of the Yamikaras, but he must know that the innocent cannot be excluded, even if it is against his will.

As the three continued to stare at the man's corpse with his severed head, the knight who performed the operation was brandishing his blood-stained sword and preparing for another procedure.

"Why are you doing this? Who are you people? What is the point of all this blood?" Akina tensed up in despair.

"Hmm, well, since you will meet the same fate as this old man anyway, then it's okay to tell you a few details." The lady's lips bent down to give a rude smile: "For who I am, my name is Selania, you may consider me the chieftain of this village, or its supervisor, I have I came here a year ago, and my goal was only one thing, 'bloodstone'."

"And Fresh blood is the most important element to make it. At that time I could kill all the people of the village and use their blood, but that wouldn't be enough, the bloodstone needs at least the blood concentration of a thousand people, and that number is impossible to find inside this village. So I decided to wait."

"To allow the people of the village to multiply, while making use of a portion of their blood each month and without killing them, will allow me an endless amount of blood."

"With the special location of this village, I also wanted to take advantage of newcomers like you, so I came up with the tea plan, and appointed guards Kaya and Saya responsible for the matter."

"And in another half a year's time, I would have collected enough blood to complete the Bloodstone."

Ryota and Akina were surprised: "You...", this was a meticulously thought-out evil scheme, and more than that, this woman's coldness was something they didn't believe, how did she talk about killing and robbing hundreds of people's lives without batting an eyelid and without any attention? The three's anger doubled to an unprecedented degree when they listened to Selania, wanting to strangle her to death.

Originally, they thought that this was the first time blood was stolen from these people, and they never guessed that it started so long ago, most likely that many old people had also been killed previously. And many magicians and travelers who came to the village were deceived.

At the same time, the three of them couldn't help but wonder about the ability of this stone that needed so much blood and lives to make.

"What is the purpose of this stone? Is the Yamikara planning something again?" asked Ryota as he referred to the name of the Yamikara on purpose.

Selania was surprised, but not much: "You kids seem to know some facts."

The people in the world, except for the people of Pace city, naturally knew that the Yamikara ruled this era and was the supreme authority on the continent, but most of them didn't know her true face and the actions they did from behind the shadows.

Mist Village was one of the many victims of these acts, as for those who discovered the truth, they will be pursued and eliminated, of course.

Since Selania now knew that the secret of her organization had been exposed by these kids, they gave her another reason not to let them leave this place alive.

"What is the power of a bloodstone? Hmm, you don't need to know that, if you were faced with another situation and fate did not bind you to this place, you would discover the greatness of this stone in the future, but since your short picnic will end here, she and your pathetic life don't There is no need to stir your enthusiasm in vain." Selania ignored and did not want to reveal the secret of the stone.

"Knight, hurry up, it's not polite to leave our guests waiting any longer, let's give them a quick death," said Selania scornfully, smiling with a confident expression that everything was under control.
