Chapter 366 A Talk with Mother

?Those words sank into Mani's mind.

Truthfully, he still hated his parents for what had happened to him. Especially because he was not told about his origins. But now that he thought about it, did he even have the right to be angry at them?

After all, his father clearly told him that he had been born dead, and it was the love of his mother that moved the hearts of the gods themselves and that was what gave him life.

He could not help but think of how deep his mother's love for him was that she was so willing to hurt herself just to see him breath life, and to top it up, she allowed herself the fate to live forever in a cage on that mountain, just so that no harm would come to him.

As Chiron's words sank even further, Mani could not help but remember the look in the Priestess' eyes as she raised her hand to try and touch him the last time they had met.

He remembered the disappointment in her eyes as she could not even touch him. He remembered how she had tried to hide her pain as her hand fell in disappointment.

It was only now that he realized the kind of pain that he had made her feel.

They say a mother's love was far reaching, beyond limit and without condition. But that did not mean that pain was not involved.

Chiron looked at the change in expression on Mani's face. He could instantly tell that his words had sank in deep.

Chiron decided to add a little fire to the flames, "After the War effort. The Priestess fell into a little coma. Her maids said that she had exhausted a lot of her life force in the last battle and that they are not sure when she will wake up. Then again, I hear that it is not the first time she had passed out like that. but this time around, they are not sure that she will wake up. It was just that bad."

As Chiron said this, Mani could not help but flash back to the scene of the priestess in her aura form fighting against the Vandorian army.

He remembered that she had parts of her body peeling out as she defended against that attack.

The thought of it made his heart ache. And even though he still hated her, he could not help but relate with her pain.

"The maids say that if she still had the Runes of the Blue Aura on her body, then she would have easily recovered from it. But that it had been lost a long time ago. Some said that she was never born with it."

As Chiron said this, he gave a sideways look towards Mani, seeing that his words sank in well, he rose to his feet, "I plan to go see how she is doing. After all, she is also a war hero."

As he said this, Chiron stood to his feet and walked away.

He had only taken a couple of steps when he heard Mani's voice come from behind him, "Igbi, wait!"

Chiron smiled.

"I'll like to see the Priestess too."

"Sure!" Chiron nodded and Mani joined him.

Whether it was Chiron or Mani, both of them were known to be Barbara's personal guards. No one stopped them on their ascent up the mountain.

Besides, the Priestess had personally led Chiron through this place before.

On getting into the temple however, they were stopped by a particular person. A tall man with a spear for a weapon in white robes.

Chiron recognized him as the Bronze ranked cultivator that was in charge of protecting the temple.

The last time that he had come to this place, this man had been ordered by the Priestess to stop the Vandorian soldiers the last time, and Chiron remembered that he had actually done a really good job at it.

Chiron and Mani stopped in front of him.

He took a long at them, and they too at him. And then he smiled, "your mother is this way!" he turned about and led the way.

Mani understood that the man had referred to him and walked forward, however, When chiron took a step, the man turned about, "Not you boy! You remainhere."

Chiron, without complaint, waited behind. He sat on the ground in the temple, in a meditative stance.

The man nodded at this, and without disturbing Chiron, he led Mani forward.

This was a mistake in the far future, this Bronze cultivator was going to regret.

Meanwhile, Chiron actually entered a meditative state for real. After all, temples were known to provide a unique experience to meditation.

However, his meditative state was different from most as he did not come to enjoy the favors that the rainbow aura could provide but understand the intricates of this temple for his own benefit.

Chiron's Death aura like shadows spread out from his body wrapping around the runes on the walls. At first, it looked as if the temple tried to resist his influence, but Chiron had set a rune in place the last time that he had been here and that rune had had done a meticulous work of bringing down the defenses of this place.

It was most especially easy considering that the priestess was out, unable to attend to the temple's defenses.

It was more like how a virus was set into a computer to slowly eat away at its defenses.

Chiron's runes had been that virus, and now, he was remodeling.

While this was going on with no one's awareness, Mani followed the bronze ranked warrior into the deeper parts of the temple. They stopped before a room that had maids all dressed in long white gowns in a bowed position waiting outside.

On seeing the Bronze warrior, they bowed and made way for him to enter the room.

This room had the scent of metulated candles mixed with the smell of sakura flowers. The entire environment had been made in such a way that...
