Chapter 76 - Healing Chief Mein (2/2)
”Yes, ancient blood oath. You should be more than satisfied with such an outcome. Now, let's get started.”
”Yes!” Ulain had no reason, basis, or misgivings to turn down such a great offer.
Her making a blood oath was already reason enough for him to accept her conditions. This was a guarantee that the protection of their race would be her responsibility. As long as the blood oath remained, they had nothing to fear.
Splitting his wrist, he raised his hand, allowing his pink blood to flow through the air.
”Do your Chief and Young Master as well.” The female snake commended.
”Young Master, for the sake of the Pink Goblins and your father, we must act now. We must accept her conditions.” Ulain turned to Ian, who was now standing with a stoic expression, no trace of emotion on his face.
Reaching over, he made a slit on his wrist and did the same with the unconscious chief.
The three men's blood flowed through the air, arriving before the serpentine.
Versailles briefly swept her gaze over the group and slit her own wrist without hesitation.
Golden blood mixed with pink, fusing and forming into a ring. They then split into four parts and rushed towards the four individuals. The rings then wrapped around Ian, Ulain, Chief Mein, and Versailles wrists like wrist bands, searing into their skin as they left their imprint on their souls.
Now, the four individuals were tied by a blood oath that would instantly destroy the soul of any individual that attempts to violate or go back on the conditions agreed upon.
”Can you please, heal our chief now?”
Having settled the matter of working under the serpentine, Ulain no longer held any cautions towards her. They were now her underlings, their life and death controlled by her whims.
Ian knelt beside his father, not a word leaving his mouth. He felt disgraced and dishonored to be working under another race when he was born as a proud member of the Pink Goblin race.
He felt insulted and humiliated by the servitude agreement but had no say or choice in the matter. He had no right or power to decide or dictate the life and death of the remaining Pink Goblins. As such, he accepted everything in silence.
'In the end, it is because I am too weak! If I had enough power and strength, such a situation would not have arisen.'
He grimly thought with fierce eyes, his grip tightening on his father's arm.
Versailles did not care for the goblins' feelings or thoughts. She had a goal to reach and the first step seemed to begin with the Pink Goblins.
Not wanting to lose such heavens sent opportunity to enslave them to her services, she took advantage of the ancient blood oath to hasten the process. From their perspective, she was providing them with the oath to make them feel assured.
However, only she knew that she used the oath to better control them. With the bindings of the oath, the Pink Goblins would never think to betray her, unless they sought death.
Satisfied with her gains, Versailles transformed back into a human and approached the dying chief. She really did not want to lose such a good lackey.
'Alright, let's heal the goblin Chief. His death will delay my great plans, and that I cannot accept!'
Bending, she laid her delicate, fair hand on his chest, and immediately released her powers. After the cleansing of the Snake Queen and her little transformation, her red-gold flames were now even purer and brighter than before.
And because she was healing physical wounds at the moment, she did not need to be cautious with her power.
As their radiant glow filled the bleak atmosphere, they swallowed the Chief's broken body within their light, torching him like a glorious beacon inside out.
With speed visible to the naked eye, all the wounds and missing chunks of fleshes healed and regrew, mending themselves within the blink of an eye.
Pretty soon, there wasn't a single injury left on the dying goblin's body.
”Ahhhhh....”
