Lirian hadn't moved in all that time and remained fixed on the spot as he watched them with eyes filled with fury and ridicule this lot were truly pitiful in his eyes.

"Heh…" he chuckled while looking at them and began to answer Edith's question, "Telamon would make it impossible for anyone to know he was using students to spy one me, so naturally he'd come up with something to prevent any of them from spilling the beans on him,"

"From what I've been able to gather Hinata has never lacked resource for cultivation, her speed of breaking through is impossible with her shitty talent instead she was given cultivation boosters and the same goes for this lot," Lirian said slowly pointing at the students.

"Telamon used to be an advisor for 5 generations of leaders, naturally he knows exactly how to manipulate the hearts of people and some little children are even easier for him to bend and manipulate,"

"To all of them the value of a cultivation booster is immense, it's worth more than all the wealth they've ever had combined, so even the most shameless of them wouldn't accept one when offered one,"

"I imagine that Telamon decided to use an oath disc to create the illusion of a fair deal with them, they would offer to follow his orders as well as to never reveal that Telamonand spy on me and in turn he would give them the boosters and other benefits," Lirian said confidently.

The part about the oaths was something that the system had discovered during it's analyse of fate strings of people who were watching Lirian closely it would identify the mark left behind, in front of the system not even a god would be a able conceal a control mark, let alone some puny calamity grade item.

"However what the fools did not realise was that they were not using an oath disc but rather a submission disc, so long as they gave their consent to follow Telamons orders they would forever be his puppets and unable to escape his control,"

"I suppose that it's to be expected they are just a bunch of commoners it would be impossible for them tell apart a submission disc and an oath disc," Lirian said with a cold smile.

"I don't understand why would Telamon still give them boosters even though he has control of them?" Edith asked in a puzzled manner.

Even though these pitiful fools thought that the boosters were super valuable to Edith they weren't she could buy boosters with her spare change if she wanted to, and the same went for Telamon however even for Telamon if her were supporting so many children it would end up costing him a considerable amount.

Lirian sighed as he heard Edith's question, "It's as I said earlier Telamon is exceptional at manipulating the hearts of others, while it's true that he can stop giving them resources it would make them disgruntle and unsatisfied,"

"While they would have no choice but to continue obeying, their hearts would no longer be into it and they would no longer do their best to serve, Telamon understands the nature of people to the extreme, it's what makes him such a capable advisor,"

"A happy worker is a better worker and all the while they would be unaware that they had lost their freedom to Telamon eternally, instead Telamon nurtured them and treated them with kindness that no one else gave to them,"

"Of course, he did this specifically because one day they would inevitably find out about the control and at the time he would remind them of all the good things he did for them and in doing so he would earn their true loyalty,"

"That condition naturally depended on the promise they showed, if any of them showed the promise to become a capable zealot he would have continued to nurture them, however all of those here have failed his test and are doomed to die," Lirian laughed while shaking his head as he faced them.

At that point Hinata had tears pouring down her face, but a look of anger and determination also filled her gaze as she wrapped her hands around Lirians Katana.

She looked at Lirian with a look of pure hatred and killing intent and Lirian could feel it, but he merely laughed it off, "Even if your killing intent were a million times greater you wouldn't be able affect me," he mocked her.

"You're lying about master," she cried through clenched teeth and poured her mana into the katana, she didn't know much about sword fighting, but she saw Lirian use the skill several times so naturally she wanted to use it against him.

"Now I'm going to kill and with you own sacred sword that you made," she laughed while looking at Lirian pushing aside all the things Lirian had said so far.

"How does it feel to know that the weapon forged by you is going to take your own life," she laughed loudly while looking at Lirian, however other than that sneer on his face that was filled with disgust for her his expression showed no worry or care.

She clenched her teeth and ground them together, as she realised that even in this situation Lirian didn't place her in his eyes at all, 'No it must be an act of his to try to destroy my confidence," she reasoned after all, she could see how weak Lirian currently was with just a glance.

Despite that unbelievable imposingness that still surrounded his body and stilled the air around him she could feel how weak his actual aura was, that method that he used to fight earlier clearly had dire repercussions on his body.

Seeing his weakened state, a vicious smile appeared on her face, "You must be surprised that I'm able to hold your katana, no?" she mocked him and pointed it at him.

"Not only am I going to kill you with your own weapon I'm going to take it for myself," she said waving it around.

But her words seemed to fall on deaf ears, because other that that cold sneer that was plastered on Lirians face his expression seemed unchanged, if anything it seemed to me mocking her even more.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk…" Lirian clicked his tongue and shook his head, "You really are the most pitiable person of all," he laughed.

"To be a heaven chosen that is so stupid, I now realise why you need such a great boon, it's to protect you from your own stupidity," he chuckled.

Hinata's brows furrowed in confusion as she looked at Lirian, she didn't understand what he meant in slightest, 'Did he just call me heaven chosen?' she wondered in disbelief, "What do you mean by that?"

Even Edith looked between Lirian and Hinata in confusion, she was naturally more informed about such things as someone from a great influence, heavens chosen was more of a myth than anything else.

It was said that in times of danger heroes would be born, heroes chosen by the world and that they would bring great change to the world, whether it was for good or bad one thing was known that in their wake corpses would litter the world and the oceans would be dyed red in blood.

Lirian merely laughed, "There's no need for you to concern yourself with that, clearly the heavens are hell bent on pushing you in my path, unfortunately, the heavens have given you too little to be able contend against me, and if you weren't able to hold my katana it would simply be an utter disgrace to the boon you hold, so don't go acting arrogant in front of me," Lirian chided her with the airs of a king speaking to a stupid village girl.

When Lirian refused to answer her question Hinata felt anger surge through her body and right at that moment she felt her mana trigger the skill of the blade.

A massive bolt of blue lightning along with a strange black glow on its edge came surging forth like a crackling whip, and it surged towards Lirian who stood their facing it without the slightest bit of worry on his face.

As Edith looked at the incoming attack her eye's widened, because she could make out the black light, from what Lirian had told her the black light it emitted was its destruction law and since that was the case Lirian's energy control skill could not dissolve the attack.

She pushed her way before Lirian not allowing him to stop her, she realised at that moment that she should have left, because she would only be a burden to Lirian if he fought, so she made up her mind she wouldn't allow him to worry about her while fighting so many people.

She rushed forward and stood directly in the lightening's path, hoping that after it hit her it would lose its power.
