BXBX NOVEL Chapter 968
"Please come with us. The Chief would like to speak with you." The leader of the snow owl warriors stated as they led the group to the peak of the cliff where the hut of their chief is located.
The hut on top of the cliff could be described as only made of wood without even a door to protect those inside from the cold. When the group arrived at the peak of the cliff, a figure of a giant snow owl could be seen overlooking the edge and staring at the rising sun.
"Chief Hedwig, we have brought the chosen one that you have sensed coming into our territory." The leader of the snow owl warriors stated as they bowed down and left.
The giant looking snow own then slowly transformed to a humanoid appearance. She turned into a wise old woman that gives the energy of a great mother. Just looking at her made anyone want to be cuddled by the warmth that she gives. It is cold but being near her made anyone feel such great warmth.
"To think that I will get to live long enough to see the Chosen of the Wilde. I guess the Breath of the Wilde still blesses me to this day." Chief Hedwig stated as a warm breeze passed through everyone that lessened the feeling of coldness.
"Greetings, Chief Hedwig. My name is Kabrakan, and I have been chosen by the Wilde." Kabrakan stated as he proceeded to introduce the other three.
Chief Hedwig could not believe that both the Champion and the Envoy of the Twin Gods is visiting her tribe as well since she could only feel the energy of the Wilde from Kabrakan. She welcomed them with open arms as she invited them in her hut that is huge but simple.
The inside of the hut is spacious and only ceremonial looking items are present inside. It seems that Chief Hedwig\'s hut is used for meetings. The smaller room in the back seems to be her resting spot but she has no guards around her which is not normal for chieftains.
"If you are wondering about my guards then you need not to worry as I am quite powerful despite my old age." Chief Hedwig stated as she could feel what the four wanted to ask.
Indeed, Adrian could feel that Chief Hedwig could equal one of the three elders in the Daemos race when it comes to pure power. She is definitely powerful even without using Beast Transformation. She then sat down and proceeded to tell the history on how the Breath of the Wilde ended up with them and being the protector of the other god slaying weapon.
Chief Hedwig told the group that they came into possession of the Breath of the Wilde when the Selvaggian race retreated after being pursued. They got led to the northern continent as it is barely habitable but perfect for their clan. They then encountered a dying man with a weapon wrapped in special cloth.
The cloth covering the weapon might be special, but it could not fully suppress the bloodlust being emitted by it. The dying man\'s wish is for the snow owls to keep the weapon out of the hands of man. As if the Breath of the Wilde heard the wish of the dying man, it then took the weapon and protected it with its powers.
The Breath of the Wilde sealed itself with the god slaying weapon inside the cave. It also erected numerous tornadoes around the area to separate it from the outside world. Everything would have been perfect if not for the Breath of the Wilde getting less powerful as years passed by.
It is not only the Breath of the Wilde that became weak as the snow owl clan also declined. In fact, the five warriors protecting the Breath of the Wilde are their most powerful warriors except for Chief Hedwig. She stayed in their settlement in order to prepare for the worse and sacrifice her life if needed be.
"Thankfully, all of you arrived in time. The Breath of the Wilde is safe, but I did not expect that the thing being sealed by the god slaying weapon will be unleashed." Chief Hedwig stated.
"It is not your fault as we have been too late to stop it as well. We were warned by the Great Star Gazer, but we have been too slow. It is partially our fault as well." Adrian replied as he felt a bit guilty of not proactively stopping them even if they were late.
"We should focus on one problem first. We need to purify the Breath of the Wilde. It has been tainted with the energy of a dark god." Kabrakan interjected as he wanted to finish his quest quickly.
"The Chosen one is correct. We should purify the Breath of the Wilde first. Thankfully, we have a priest with us which will make this a bit easier." Chief Hedwig stated as an ornamental bell suddenly appeared on her right hand.
Chief Hedwig then stood up and chanted phrases while sounding the ornamental bell. She then instructed Kabrakan to release his Wilde Soul to help purify the Breath of the Wilde with her. Levin Cloud will assist with the excess dark god energy.
