Chapter 234 - Why Was Kelan Targeted ? Part 1

Mykael then explained to him : "When we become Gods we are not all at the same level and the Acrium, like the Nerudium or the Trinium for you, allows us to become stronger and it is sought after by all gods without exception."

Kevin gave him a sideways glance and asked him : "Even you ? Yet you gave me your Chains of Restraint ..."

Mykael chuckled and squeezed his shoulder to show his affection : "The Chains of Restraint weren't really mine and they aren't really yours either.

When I was still a human the God of War himself came to me, and he offered me to become the new God of Destruction, it's a long story so I'll tell it to you both later, but the Chains of Restraint were a gift from him so that the other Gods would leave me alone while I adjusted to my new status and learned to master my new powers.

I also created a blood pact with them so if I wish I can always use their power, being stronger than you if I ordered them to return to me they would leave you, just as if their creator the God of War claimed them they would return to him."

Mykael had heard Kevin say earlier that only he and his master had ever made it to the Stage 3 of a Warrior Spirit and it had stunned him when he had realized that Kevin was undoubtedly talking about Elias.

And if that was the case, Cassandra who had brought his soul here and put that mind control necklace on him to try to keep him under her control was going to pay dearly once Elias knew about it.

When he felt Kevin tense up a bit he said to reassure him : "The Chains of Restraint as you have seen are very useful but they do not increase the Stats of their owner.

The God of War in creating them gave them their own intelligence, unlike the other artifacts, the Chains of Restraint become stronger according to the level of their master, but their master doesn't become more powerful thanks to them.

And don't worry, I don't intend to take them away from you and as for the God of War, if he ever appears in this world, he won't take them away from you either, I'm even sure he'll be very satisfied that you have them."

Kevin relaxed immediately, Mykael seemed to get along well with this God who seemed very powerful so it was a good thing for them.

And Mykael then got lost in his own thoughts, he didn't know when Elias would resurface because no one knew where he was or what he was doing and after their last altercation, which had ended very badly, he didn't know if he was still angry at him for daring to oppose his judgment.

And thinking about it now he paled a little, Elias had tried to negotiate a ten year period with him saying that there was a child that needed to grow in this world and he needed that time for him to develop into a Warrior Spirit of Stage 2 ... And if that kid was Kevin that would explain why Elias had been so hard on him, he probably already guessed by then that he had the potential to become a Warrior Spirit of Stage 3.

Damn, he thought, he had almost killed his son's mate when he was only a kid.

When he would see Elias again he would make sure to apologize and thank him properly for saving Kevin at that time.

He suddenly smirked, all he had to do now was to protect his son and son-in-law as best he could and hope that Elias would get involved so that he could prevent Cassandra or Lilith from taking over this world and therefore the Acrium that was surely there.

Those bitches had fooled them all, when the other Gods had taken an interest in this world still without an owner, they had diverted their attention by inventing this stupid game which was only a decoy so that they could quietly look for the Acrium.

Kevin then snapped him out of his thoughts by asking him : "Did you find that champion Lilith told us about ?"

Mykael shook his head and said to him : "No, and if my men after all this time couldn't find him, it's probably because she had to hide him somewhere to be able to train him personally ... And after thinking about it I think she must have hidden him in a dungeon.

She is able to open transdimensional portals at will, so it wouldn't be a problem for her, and my men can't search every dungeon that is in this world."

Kevin smirked and told him : "It doesn't matter, forget about him, when he will show up he will have to deal with two Warrior Spirits, now that Erik has moved on to Stage 2, our attack strength has been greatly increased."

Mykael smirked too and said : "Indeed, but don't be too confident, Erik still need to be trained."

Kevin was well aware of that, and as the aura around Axel became a swirl of color, Kevin asked his father-in-law : "The red aura swirling around him represents you, doesn't it ? I thought he had already assimilated your bloodline ?"

Mykael smiled at him and said : "You're right, that red aura represents my bloodline and don't worry it's just because I strengthened it that he has to assimilate it again.

As for the silver aura that circulates around him, it represents his mother's heritage, once he has assimilated them both he will finally be able to use all his powers.

You might be shocked when you look at his Stats again, they will be very different from before."

Kevin smiled eager to see his new Stats and Dilan then walked over to them and he asked them : " Sorry to interrupt, but can you explain to me why was Kelan targeted ? I can't understand what a god could gain by putting someone in his place.

Kelan hardly ever fights on the border, and he became Caleb's right hand man 3 years ago. Since then I don't know what he has been doing with him, but it's probably mostly espionage, so why him ?"

Kevin had already thought about it quickly but without having any real certainty, however, thanks to the little information Dilan had just given him about Kelan, everything was starting to make sense : "If it's Lilith who replaced him with a chameleon, then it was precisely to gain access to Caleb.

Infiltrating the organization so high in the hierarchy would allow her to be kept informed of the appearance of the bearer of the Pentagram Mark and she could put in place strategies to strike hard either at the border or to eliminate the members of the organization that would represent a threat to her and her demons.
