Chapter 470: The future Changed (2/2)
Sylvia had just finished explaining to them all what had been seen.
”The Divine being's future, is only one path of the future correct?” Humfree said, stroking his beard. Leader of the white sash knights, the healing division at Avrion. One of the only old council members from the past. ”Doesn't that mean there is a chance it will not happen?'
”Oh, please!” Lenny interrupted. ”You do remember that Bliss here is the actual Divine being. If you had gone to that crystal before and she had told you this with her visions, you would have all been quaking in your boots begging for something to be done. Nothing has changed apart from your almighty god taking the form of a human instead of a crystal. No offence.” Lenny said, looking at Bliss. The two of them were quite close now and on friendly terms since working with each other.
”Did the impact of Ray not being with us really change the vision that much?” Jack asked. He had been busy training the werewolves that had decided to come with them. They were now settled into the Redwing kingdom.
There were a few incidents here and there, but Jack made a simple rule that they all had to follow. They were not to turn ever while in the city. If they went out on hunts, in war and such, it was understandable, but if they ever broke this rule, and turned in the city, there would be a harsh punishment.
Of course, there were always some, and Jack had to make an example in front of him. Punishing him in front of everyone. Jack had overwhelmed him with his own power, while still in his human form, while the wolf was in his werewolf form.
Which settled their worries even more. A lot of people knew what Jack was, but it still suited the image in their head, that a human could deal with these half beasts like creatures.
”It would appear so,” Wilfred added. ”At the end of the day, he was the prophecized child that was said to stop this war along with Van. If there is one piece, what are we meant to do here?”
”We can't just give up!” Sylvia said, slamming her fist on the table.
The others turned to look at her, concerned. Sylvia seemed to be getting angrier or more short-tempered as the days grew closer. The problem was they weren't sure why. Was it because Ray hadn't returned? Was it the Shadow inside her body, or was she just nervous about such an event?
”I have a suggestion,” Von said, who was Ray's martial arts teacher and also a former Council member. He acted as Slyvia's aide, giving her advice from time to time, and when she was away, he took over her position of head of the council.
”Many of you may not like it, but I will speak so anyway. The vision being shown will come true if we decided to carry on doing what we are doing now. I truly believe that. To change the current future, then we need to do something unpredicted.”
”I have been thinking this whole time, why has the Shadow agreed to wait a full year. The Shadow has never been known to keep true to its word. Yet it has done so this time. Not once in the entire year had the Shadow directly stepped foot outside of the shadow content to attack us.”
”There have been incidents here and there, but none directly leading to a grand battle. Even now, they have kept their word perfectly. Not even attacking a day earlier. If you get my point, I believe the Shadow themselves are waiting for something. Even now, there still not ready, and they won't be until next week.”
”Before we had to worry about the empire stabbing us in the back. But now that the Alure kingdom has allied with us, they would have to get through them before even touching us. And based on what Roki said, it seems they might have troubles of their own to deal with.”
”My suggestion is, along with the prince, we take the attack to them. We attack early, and we leave tomorrow for war!”
