Chapter 350 - Yellow Flower Blossomed (1/2)
Back in Vikra's cave a messenger had informed them that a wayward neotide with golden yellow eyes had killed the wizard.
”The wizard was killed by a neotide that had gone insane. Although it was grey in color, it had golden yellow eyes according to other neotides. They said that the neotide had all of a sudden started running in the opposite direction to attack the wizard and Reese. One of the generals in the army saved Reese although he was also killed by that neotide. Reese has been saved but she is lying in the jungle, still hidden beneath the rock because her movements are arrested. It seems that she has suffered a stroke,” said the messenger.
Cy looked at the messenger and shouted, ”Go away or I will kill you!” he was shocked to hear that his fellow had been killed by a neotide.
”Can't you even manage your neotides?” he said looking at Vikra. ”We don't have wizards left. That one wizard was equal to five thousand neotides, and yet he gets killed by one of yours! This is unacceptable. Can you imagine the loss?”
The messenger started to leave out of fear. Who would even think of talking to the mad wizard with an iron hand in front of him?
”Stop!” ordered Vikra to the messenger. The messenger froze thinking that he would be sent to death for this message.
”Master, I only got the message. I did not kill the wizard. I don't even have to capacity to kill neotides, let alone a wizard. Master, save my life!” he started crying.
”Why didn't the wizard defend himself?” asked Vikra. How was it possible that a wayward neotide would kill a powerful wizard like that in now time? It didn't make sense.
”They say that even he suffered a stroke and his movements were arrested,” replied the messenger.
Vikra looked at Cy and said, ”How is it possible that two people will suddenly get a stroke? And what kind of stroke? They are not humans to suffer from heart stroke or brain stroke. They were a wizard and a neotide!”
Cy looked at him with narrowed eyes. His mind started running thinking what could have happened. ”Explain everything in detail!” he ordered the messenger.
The messenger poured out all the details that he knew.
”Can a neotide have golden yellow eyes?” asked Cy after the messenger finished speaking.
”No, that is impossible because once you become a neotide, your eyes become a dull grey just like your fur…” replied Vikra.
”That means that it was a werewolf – a pure blooded werewolf. And which werewolf could enter so boldly within neotides?” asked Cy wondering about the valor of that wolf.
