Chapter 633 - Chief Moon (1/2)
Chief Moon was not a name but a title for the Chief of the Moonlight Tribe. The Captain Guard immediately escorted Lusha to meet Chief Moon when the names of Tyrant and Beast Coven were brought up.
Lusha headed toward the big building in the center of the Moonlight Tribe's main village, the round building that was similar to a dome. Chief Moon was already there as she entered the building as someone informed him that the scout had returned.
Chief Moon was sitting at the end of the big hall, together with his attendants. Chief Moon was a middle-aged man with the face of someone in his forties. Of course, Chief Moon was much older than he looked. The Chief was 209 years old this year.
The two attendants standing on his side were much older as wrinkles were apparent on their faces. The three looked at Lusha, who walked in a hurry toward them. When she reached ten meters distance, she knelt down and greeted. ”This Lusha greets Chief Moon!”
”Rise, Child. Let me hear the report you have.” Chief Moon's voice was gentle and soothing. He smiled at Lusha, who was standing and looking at his eyes. Lusha took a deep breath and started with the war between the Beast Coven and The Tyrant. However, the attendant to the right of Chief Moon interrupted her midway. ”So you failed to stop the war? Isn't The Tyrant afraid of The Guardian Beast, and also the Elven, and Us? We can't overlook this, Chief. We must gather our force and annihilate The Tyrant, or else we will lose our position in the forest.”
”I am sorry, Grand Elder, but I haven't finished the report. There's more than the war that I have to report.” Lusha suppressed her emotion and calmly continued. Her comrades' lives were at stake, so she quickly interrupted even though it meant disrespect to the Grand Elder.
”Who allowed you to speak when I am speaking!?” Sure enough, the Moonlight Rabbit on the right of Moon Chief was angry when Lusha interrupted him. As the Grand Elder was about to continue scolding Lusha, Chief Moon spoke. ”Let her finish what she has to say first, Grand Elder Olming!”
With Chief Moon's words, the Grand Elder Olming shut his mouth. But the resentment was still in his eyes as he eyed the Moonlight Warrior. Lusha ignored the gaze and looked at Chief Moon's eyes.
”Yes, we can't stop the war with the name of our tribe, The Elven, and The Guardian Beasts. We lost the fight and have our limbs t-twisted and c-cut….” Lusha's voice shook up when she mentioned the horrible event that happened to her when Bronson and Zaneos attacked them.
”They did not kill us. No, they purposely kept us alive to witness the war, the war where The Tyrant's force destroyed the Beast Coven….” Lusha recounted the details of the war that she witnessed while lying down on the ground.
”What about Alton, The Chief of the Beast Coven?” Chief Moon furrowed his brow when he heard the Beast Coven stood no chance against The Tyrant. He did not expect that The Tyrant was this strong to destroy the Beast Coven.
”Chief Alton fought The Tyrant's leader, but I can't see their fight. From what I know, Chief Alton lost to The Tyrant's leader. No, he said himself that he was Emperor of The Empire of Tang. Perhaps Chief Moon knows something about this Empire?” Lusha replied with uncertainty. She did not see the battle, but the fact that Tang Shaoyang occupied the Beast Coven's territory meant Chief Alton lost.
Chief Moon and the two Grand Elders' eyes widened in surprise when they heard Chief Alton lost to the Tyrant Leader, no, The Emperor of The Empire of Tang. Chief Moon rubbed his chin and thought of the name of the empire. He had never heard of this name before. Three Kingdoms and one Forest that was the structure power of the Ortis Continent.
”Then why are you here? You said that your limbs were cut, but I see you are still intact….” The Grand Elder Olming frowned. ”Don't tell me they send you as bait toward us?”
Lusha immediately shook her head. ”No, they sent me here to send you guys a message, but more than that. I have an emergency that I haven't mentioned. It's about the Guardian Beast, The Kirin. The Kirin has joined The Tang Empire, and she becomes that Emperor's subordinate.”
”Don't joke around, Lusha! I might overlook the fact you disrespect me, but this is simply too far!” Grand Elder Olming pointed his finger at Lusha as his face flushed in anger. The Guardian Beast was not just simply the forest's guardian but also a figure that the residents of the forest revered. Saying the Guardian Beast became someone else's subordinate was an insult to the whole forest.
Lusha shook her head furiously. ”I won't dare to lie about this, Grand Elder. I saw with my own eyes that The Kirin was kneeling toward that man. I can describe The Kirin's features if you don't believe me, so you can confirm if it is the real Guardian Beast or not.”
