Hero of Darkness

Chapter 399 - Buried History

At this moment, Kahn and all of his generals were present in a private room and after Kahn read the report provided by the most experienced and talented historians of the Verlassen fiefdom… not just Kahn but all of them were surprised after the revelation.

They already knew that Kahn was a chosen representative of God of Darkness and he was given Divine Abilities which Kahn used to create and give life to them. But now… another hero was added to the play.

"Wait a minute… so there was another batch of summoned heroes or he was summoned alone after the incident 300 years ago?" wondered Kahn.

Currently, his knowledge of the other empires and the whole crusade against the Demon God was non-existent. Because unlike the rest… there wasn't a single person who knew anything about it.

And the government as well as the top three noble factions had done a very good job making this summoned heroes thing unknown to the general population of the empire.

Kahn assumed that it was because of worshipping Gods or creating their churches and any monastery was prohibited because of the bloodied history of this empire due to various cults and churches once causing a bloodbath in the name of their gods and killing those who believed in the doctrines of the others.

It was the First Emperor Rathnaar who got rid of the old roots and stopped the war and created a new empire with equality for all races and species, unlike the other empires where only one species who worshipped a particular god thought of them as superior while others were considered as heretics.

Thus, after learning from the consequences of the past.. Rathnaar had prohibited worshipping any God or establishing an organization that spread their teachings or preached one-sided delusional beliefs.

In the past one thousand years… Rakos Empire was the one place in the whole world of Vantrea where all species and races could live in harmony and without any prejudice.

Although, one's personal beliefs were always different than the society.. The imperial family had made sure that those rules were followed. And even after the Great War a hundred years ago, the new government had also decided to follow the same path.

Kahn stopped the thought train and returned back to reality.

"The report says he was at least an 8th stage saint. Even stronger than all the three faction leaders. And he was equally matched with the previous emperor who was on the same level." said Kahn as he ran through more details.

"But then how did someone so strong like him, that even the previous emperor couldn't kill… die in the Verlassen mountain range?" asked Kahn in a confused tone.

"What killed him? And what exactly is hidden in that place where that old vampire bastard wants me to go?" thought Kahn.

Because the deal he made with Allister Mor Vandereich didn't specify too many details. He was told that he'd receive the full instructions when the right time came.

But the next moment… Kahn's eyes turned serious as he clenched his left fist tightly and spoke in a furious tone.

"For two hundred years… these fuckers including the imperial couldn't destroy that invisible dome.

Also… it wasn't that they couldn't get rid of the legendary rank monsters… just that they didn't want to." he said after coming to a conclusion of his own.

"After the three noble factions joined hands and their faction leaders banded together to kill the previous emperor… the newly established government could've stopped this as well. But they too chose to keep things running as they were." he said in an exasperated tone.

"Why? What exactly is in that place that they allowed these monsters and also this invisible dome to keep on existing?

What's so important that they knowingly sacrificed the lives of more than a billion people in the past two hundred years by not doing anything?" questioned Kahn as his mind was running in circles and he was failing to find the real reason.

" I guess I will have to find out everything on my own when the time comes." he spoke and then signaled the generals and Omega to follow him.

Kahn then met all the historians waiting in the throne hall and thanked all of them for finding the information despite not having many sources of information and records.

Because they didn't just read through the books and archives, but they pulled their own connections and gathered enough evidence about historical events… not only Rakos Empire but the neighboring empires as well.

Only then they managed to link the previous Hero of Lightning disappearing around the same time as this dome that could easily kill the other saints regardless of their ranks coming into existence.

When the night came and Kahn read through the reports again and again, trying to find a clue of his own… he was hit with a sudden realization.

"Don't tell me… all of that; all these lives lost and all that money spent… for just stopping the other empires from invading that place with their forces." said Kahn with a horrified expression on his face.

"It's most likely that they didn't want the other empire to invade the Verlassen mountain range. And since no saint could enter because of this invisible eight thousand kilometers wide invisible dome… And all those legendary rank monsters became impossible to kill even if they sent their armies along with hundreds of saints.

Plus the terrain disadvantage is too much for a full-scale invasion. Starting a war where their best warriors couldn't even enter the battlefield would be outright foolish and no matter the money or resources… they wouldn't even achieve their goals." he said in a surprised tone.

While Kahn was lost in his thoughts… Ronin suddenly appeared out of the shadows in his room and shouted hurriedly.

"Master! We're in big trouble!!" shouted Ronin.

"What happened? Why are you so worked up?" asked Kahn curiously.

Ronin then quickly informed him about the grave matter at hand.

"Master… it's… it's Kassandra Mikealson!"
