Re: In My Bloody Hit Novel

>>Host, Defend against Fate<<

This alert surprised Chiron. What did it mean to defend against fate?

However, the conversation between fatso and Dona continued.

"Elder Fatso, what do you mean by that? Are you saying that this technique that has been passed down from generation to generation is a lie?" Chief Dona asked.

Fatso bowed to Dona, "Forgive me Clan chief. That's not what I meant. It's just that the last time the clan faced a calamity that warranted the sacrifice of a Tamashi was hundreds of years ago. At that time, none of us were even born. How can we say we can even trust the technique in a time of crisis? The records concerning that time are also damaged."

All the elders paused to think about what he had just said.

All the time a Tamashi has appeared within the clan, This technique has been placed on their bodies so it could be used as a last resort to save the clan in a time of trouble. But the clan has been so peaceful that the use of such a weapon had never risen.

All they had were records stating that it worked. Although the records said so, seeing was believing at the end of the day.

"I see what you mean Elder Fatso, but as it stands, we have no other technique, and whether it can be used during a moment of need will be seen then. Or do you know a better technique?" Dona asked with a frown on his face.

"No! Chief Dona. I don't, but I do have a better idea of how we can be sure. At least a small reassurance."

Chiron suddenly had a very bad feeling about this. What did that Fat idiot mean by 'a small reassurance'?

Chief Dona raised a brow at fatso, "go on!"

? *Cough* Fatso coughed as he continued, "This technique has three phases before it can be used. Each phase has results we can see with our eyes before the last explosion. I suggest we try it out to maybe the second phase or third Phase and see. After all, the elders in this room are very skilled with spirit techniques. We can always place the seal back if there are any problems."

"SHIT!!!" Chiron cursed in his heart, "This buffoon! What the hell is he thinking?" f𝑟𝑒ewe𝚋𝚗૦𝐯e𝘭.c𝗼𝓂

In a way, Elder Fatso was actually right. The Technique had not been used for a very long time and the current elders had no way of knowing if it was faulted or not. But what none of them in the room knew except Chiron was that the technique was very very flawed.

This was something the MC of the book only realized far off in the future after becoming stronger, and exploring foreign lands.

It was also the reason why records of the last time the technique was used are damaged.

Firstly, The technique needed at least Four out of eight of those that initially set up the seal to activate. Next, the technique had three Phases in the records, but it was actually two phases. Lastly, not only the life of the Tamashi was necessary to activate the Technique but also the lives of all four elders that activated it.

Although it still worked well, the chief of the clan hundreds of years ago knew that no elder would be ready to sacrifice their life for the technique, and that was why the records were damaged. This way, no one knew the consequences of using the technique and it could be used in a time of need to save the clan.

A small sacrifice of a few lives to save the majority.

However, none of the elders in this room knew this, and naturally, Chiron could not tell them. After all, who will believe the words of a seven-year-old Tamashi trash?"

"Hmmm! I see what you mean, "Chief Dona nodded in acknowledgment. He turned to the other Elders, "What do you all think?"

Most of them nodded in agreement to the suggestion.

"SHIT! SHIT!! SHIT!!!" Chiron cursed some more. He knew what was going on here. After all, in Fatso's suggestion earlier on, he had praised them as being skilled with Spirit techniques. There was no way those words did not feed the ego of this very prideful people.

"Okay then, I don't mind if we try out the technique to maybe the second phase. I choose to believe in the records our ancestors have passed down to us. That will also clear all doubts. Right?" Dona asked.

Fatso nodded, and so did the other elders.

This was a decision that even the Clan Chief of hundreds of years ago did not see his later generations making. He definitely did not foresee the birth of Fatso.

"Since it has been decided, let's do it," Dona suggested and the elders once more took their positions.

In the first stage of the technique, the skin of the Tamashi turns red. In the second Phase, the skin turns charcoal black, and in the third Phase, the skin starts to leak spirit energy before the explosion. At least that was what the record said.

But Chiron knew that after the second phase came the explosion. Chiron Cursed the day Fatso was ever born.

His mind raced through his memories for a solution to the current problem. He needed an immediate solution. Or else, he would die here and now.

"No! No!! There is no way in hell I'll let this happen." Chiron thought to himself. As his mind raced for a solution, he finally found one.

Spirit energy flowed in the blood, or at least it needed the blood to fuel its release. That was it. That was what he needed to do. If he could cease the flow of blood in his body, the technique could not be performed.

But there was no literal way that was possible. Except of course if he somehow lost the blood in his body. Thinking this far, a crazy thought suddenly came into his head.

He had to lose the blood in his body. But that meant that he had to somehow make a wound deep, and wide enough that he actually bleed, and in no small amount of time too.

At the moment, Chiron was butt naked. He did not even have a knife to execute the deed he had in mind.

The Elders gathered together and the chant started. Soon, his skin had entered the first phase...𝐟𝓇ℯ𝒆we𝒃𝘯𝒐νe𝑙.co𝚖
