War Destiny Of Future - 172 Chapter 164

In a place that looks like an infirmary. Ben is applying some medicine on Sky’s lower abdomen, there is a palm-sized of burned and slightly corroded wound that is stained with some foul aura.

“Seriously, although he probably had some good intentions, our plans and strategies certainly get messed up by him… Argh… Ben, be more gentle please.” said Sky, he flinched as the result of the stingy sensation from the medicine.

“Don’t move too much, if not I might hurt you even more.” said Ben, a bit tired.

“Tsk… That disintegration magic of him had released the foul aura that hidden on those Kirin Demons and thus worsen the condition in there. Do he even realize how deadly that foul aura is, especially to an angel who has a holy body like him.” said Chris, a bit anxious, he is applying some magic on Dominic to cleanse the foul aura on him.

Chris left hand is in bandage as he gets injured by the foul aura as well.

“But the problem is that, why is he helping us? Or at least he tried to help us even when knowing the risk of doing so. It has something to do with you right… Ouch! Ben, I suspect that you did that on purpose.” said Sky while flinched a bit.

Chris did not answer Sky’s question, he stared at Dominic while having some deep thoughts.

——————————————————————-

A while, later, Dominic had regained his consciousness, his wounds are neatly bandaged and all of the foul aura had been cleansed.

“You have finally awakened. You are currently in a mini dimension we created, we can’t afford to let people in Quill Town know that their precious high priest gets badly injured because of us, so please bear with it.” said Sky.

“Can you speak right now? As I have a few questions for you.” said Chris, with an uneasy feeling.

“Yes I can.” said Dominic.

Then, Chris took out the gem that was given by Dominic.

“This crystal is used as a danger tracker, right?” Chris asked.

“Yes.” said Dominic without any hesitation.

“Why are you helping us? And how are you related to Arianna, my mother?” he asked again, in a rather tensed mood.

Chris’s questions caught the angel off guard thus he stunned there for a while before taking a deep breath.

“I… I used to serve her before she gets married.” said Dominic.

“That’s all?” said Chris, who obviously dissatisfied with this answer.

“Yes, no more no less. Because you are her son, it’s my responsibility to protect you.” said Dominic.

Hearing this answer, Chris was about to tell him he doesn’t need his protection, but then he held back.

“I see. Get some rest, we will discuss about the quest with you after this.” said Chris, rather emotionless.

Then, he took out a *paper voodoo doll.

———————————————————————-

Sky, Chris, and Ben went back to their room in homestay. Chris is obviously troubled by something and is extremely anxious. Both Sky and Ben had noticed that.

“Hey Chris, are you alright?” Sky asked.

“That angel, he lied… He lied.” said Chris with a rather shaky voice.

Then he starts anxiously scratching the wound on his left hand really hard causing the wound to break open again, blood stained a big area of the bandage.

“Chris! What are you doing? Stop it!” Sky shouted, he quickly held Chris’s hands tightly preventing him from hurting himself even more.

Ben used a mild mental control magic on Chris, which successfully calmed down Chris for a bit.

Chris leaned on Sky’s shoulder as a result of fatigue and the emotional outbreak.

“That angel was not Arianna’s servant, he is hiding something that I’m unable to dig out from his mind… But the fact that he indeed knows Arianna, what is his real identity that he cannot tell? Is he actually related to…” Chris suddenly realized of something and ended the talk, he then started staring at Ben who is redoing his bandage, indicating him to be more gentle, Ben nodded silently.

“Well, whatever he is up to, I don’t think he means any ill intentions. I believe you sensed that as well, he is not a bad person, or at least not to us.” said Sky.

“Yes, I indeed had sensed that, and he also gives a different vibe compared to any other angel we met, a good difference… Should I trust him?” Chris asked.

“You could, but if that makes you feel insecure, you can hold back that trust for a while until the time you think that he is trustworthy.” said Sky, while patting Chris’s shoulder.

“But right now, you need to take a rest, we will have another important discussion with that angel later.” said Ben who had done with the bandaging.

Chris nodded…

———————————————————————————–

A few hours later, they went back to the mini dimension. Dominic had pretty much recovered due to his special body mechanisms of the angel. Sky waved his hand a bit and the space turned from infirmary to a proper conference room. There is a screen in front of them, showing the distribution inside of that abandoned building.

“I will straight away to the point, this room here is where all those creatures that known as Kirin Demon gathered and has the most serious contamination of foul aura, but we didn’t found anything suspicious in the room, so we highly suspected the source of the foul aura is coming from the underground of this room.” said Sky while pointing at the map.

“And most likely this source has something to do with the sudden appearance of these creatures which suppose to be gone hundreds of years ago, or the other way round.” Chris added.

*Something out of the story

Sky: “Dear readers.”

Chris: “Hmm?”

Sky: “As what Chris said. Right now, this story is free on the authorized platform, so please read it from authorized platforms as mental support for the writer.”

Chris: “Mhm… There are two authorized platforms. One is webnovel.com. And another one is that messy and half-dead Weebly site that she uses for draft and backup… But not recommended.”

Sky: “Ah… Haha. Yes, as Chris said.”

Chris: “But look out, those scums might change this note to their own website link. So, be cautious.

Sky : “By the way, if the cover page is the old cover page that shows two stickmen, stop reading it, it’s cursed and might caused the writer to stop writing.”
