Chapter 565: Pitiful Soldiers (1/2)

”I wonder just how many mysteries this Brush of Wisdom has...” Raven murmured as he stared at the brush on his hand.

Although he hadn't been using it for long, he already experienced just how many things he could do with it.

The notion of his Intent flowing through the brush as easy as flowing water, was in truth a bit wrong. With his rising number of uses, he figured this out.

The Brush of Wisdom just doesn't allow him to fuse his Intent to what ever he creates with it. It would be more accurate to say that the brush allows his thoughts to manifest in reality.

Raven had tested this over and over again during his practice in the real world and inside the crown space. It is the very reason why he was able to create a unique set of skills using the Brush of Wisdom at it's core.

'One Thought Creation' - this is the name of the skill he created.

So far it doesn't have many iterations but it possess infinite potential.

The Brush of Wisdom enables Raven to manifest whatever his thoughts are, meaning that if he was thinking about creating a Dragon, then the Brush of Wisdom will allow that to manifest to reality. Well, that's considering that he had an appropriate image of what he wants to create and enough energy to do so.

His creations couldn't last for a long time for now but the more adept he gets at using the Brush of Wisdom, the better the results would be.

”I wonder who created this thing?” Raven wondered as he stared at the brush. ”It is said that Ancestor Zeus found during his escapades and not even him could unlock the full potential of the brush. How awesome was that? Where did this come from?”

Raven sighed at the fact that he might not be able to find the answer for this question in his entire life. He put away the brush for now and decided to not linger on this thoughts too much since he had better things to do.

Three weeks had passed since he arrived at Gaia's Secret Realm and met his army.

Speaking of this, Raven finally managed to understand the whole reason as to why their situations were like this. It's all because of their previous Lord - the last era's 9th Chosen.

It all begins from where did this soldiers came from.

Originally, these soldiers were mortals living peacefully on the Lower Planes that are owned by the Ancient Elysium Sect. Ever since the 2nd Generation's era, they started looking for people who had a strong potential, the sect then employed these people and made them soldiers who will be serving the Chosen ones of Zeus.

Suffices to say, these people are considered as False Immortals. It's not like they couldn't die, it's just that the contract fused on their bodies won't allow them to.

Raven had no idea what kind of technique was used to create to Contract Orbs but it is responsible for harnessing their souls and bodies to resurrected.

They could die. There's no mistaking that.

However as they were bound by the contract orb, once they did die, they will be resurrected once the next batch of Chosen arrives. This will go on and on until either the Ancient Elysium Sect falls or the Devil Emperor was killed permanently.

In short, they are a bunch of pitiful slaves who's right to die got taken away from them as well.

Raven didn't know what the 2nd Generation was thinking but he doesn't agree to it all. Nevertheless, even if didn't like it, he's still virtually a nobody and can't change this fact.

Due to all of this, the fate of these men were inevitably tied to their Lord.

The reason why this fortress and this army was at this state is due to the previous generation's 9th Chosen.

From what he learned, their previous Lord was a huge asshole. An entitled son of a bitch according their description.

Fame and status wormed its way towards his head. Due to him being chosen, he thought at all lives were beneath him, and thus he mistreated not only the soldiers but even the disciples as well.
