Chapter 163 - Make me stronger! (1/2)

This whole time the academy had been following the prophecy hoping to find the answer they were looking for. The Divine being had told them that their saviour would have Red hair, so they started by gathering all the children with red hair.

Wilfred had suspected that perhaps these children would be the successors of the founders of Avrion and would soon grow to have similar abilities as the 5 Dragon knights of Avrion but no such thing ever happened. But right here, right now, they had finally found someone with the ability, however, the man had black hair.

”I'm not sure if this information will help.” Ray said, ”But at least it will give you a fighting chance.”

The members were suddenly starting to understand. Of course, it wasn't as easy as they thought. No one so far had been able to defeat a True infected. That included the master knights meaning they weren't able to see through this illusion, yet somehow Nes was. This only made Nes seem like a greater person in their eyes.

Wilfred then stood up.

”Nes, what's your aim with this group?”

Ray paused for a while before answering.

”I want to cure this world of its disease.”

The others hearing these words from Ray's mouth felt like Ray was talking about the Shadow plague and they were happy with his answer but Wilfred could see through this Nes person. He wasn't only talking about the shadow plague but he was also talking about the Humans as well.

Wilfred had one thought, ”This man is a dangerous person.”

He wasn't protecting them but using them.

Von then stood up and walked towards Wilfred who was stood by Sir K and Ann.

”I was actually hoping to invite you three to join the Red wings. Nes has allowed me to offer you an invitation to this group.”

”Von have you gone mad!” Wilfred shouted, ”Where do your loyalties lie, have you completely forgotten about the Divine being?”

Then suddenly Ann stood forward and bowed down in front of Nes.

”Please if you can, I would like to join your faction.”

”Of course,” Ray replied.

Ann had already made up her mind. Her daughter was already a part of the group and she would do anything to protect her daughter. At the same time, this man had saved her daughter's life twice and even hers. She had to repay him somehow.

Ray immediately offered her a contract and just like before, a piece of paper appeared out of thin air. As soon as Ann had accepted the contract a mark started to appear on her right shoulder.

”What in the Divine beings name is this?” Wilfred said.

Wilfred had never witnessed magic like this before, even the Dragon knights didn't have power like this.

”What about you two?” Von asked once again.
