Argos Belmont, the Revenant Sovereign and also the King of Belmont Kingdom revealed the past of the entity he was conversing with through the Mirror of Fate.

The 7th stage saint individual he was talking with had a terrifying past as he was once a member of the 8th Hero of Darkness' party. This type of background was enough to get anyone killed even to this day although these events took place 300 years ago.

"You dare, Argos! You think I'm afraid?!" he bellowed in rage while expressing visible hatred.

And the target of this hatred wasn't the vampire king but the deceased 8th Hero of Darkness himself.

"I trained with him, I fought by his side in many battles.

I trusted him like my brother!" he spoke in a furious voice.

"I believed in him blindly without ever questioning his judgment.

And what did he do?

He went on a suicide mission and caused mayhem in the entire world by killing the other Heroes.

He even killed those Heroes and Heroines who were supposed to be his friends during the war." he revealed a memory of the past.

"And for what?! He failed in the end against Demon God!" his frustration could be felt even from this side of the mirror connecting them from 130 thousand kilometers away.

To his rageful countenance, Argos replied in a somber tone…

"You know very well why he did that. It wasn't like there was another choice."

"So what?!! Did his efforts yield a result in the end?

And what about the consequences of his actions?" he asked while revealing a tyrannical and deathly aura.

"6.3 Billion people of my Abyss Empire were massacred because of his selfish actions.

Because of what he did… all the empires serving Gods declared a war on us; resulting in a river made of blood of the innocents, the people who swore to protect in the first place!" he bellowed while unveiling a dire and harsh truth of the past.

"So do not talk to me as if your father was some righteous hero or a saint who sacrificed himself for the sake of the people.

He has no right or deserves to be called one." his exasperated voice echoed in the surroundings.

"Don't think that blackmailing would work on me.

You may know my secrets but so do I." he openly threatened Argos, a 9th stage saint without a shred of fear in his eyes.

"Oh really?

What are you going to do? Tell everyone about my secret? That I'm the adopted son of the 8th Hero?" asked Argos with a visibly mocking expression.

"I'm one of the 4 sovereigns in the world.

Whose word do you think has more weight to it?" he questioned and taunted the shadowy figure on the other end.

"Besides… Think about the people you're leading now.

What do you think will happen to them if your past is revealed and you're removed from your position?

Do you really think they'd be let go easily?" Argos also gauged the opposition's resolve.

"Everything you did to serve and protect your new home would be labeled as treason or part of some heinous scheme if the truth got out.

Even your disciples will be used as a sacrifice to appease the public's anger." the vampire sovereign showed no mercy while revealing the consequences.

"Don't you dare bring them in this matter, brat?!

If you decide to even spread rumors… I will gladly reveal to the world about what you're hiding inside that little kingdom of yours." he too overbearingly gave the vampire king a reality check.

Argos then heaved a sigh of helplessness and calmed his anger.

"I'm not asking you to go back to your old ways.

I'm just asking you to train the new Hero and safeguard him till the Conclave of Heroes.

After that, I will come for him myself." proposed the revenant sovereign.

"Why do you think I can even train him?" asked the other being.

"Well… you trained the 8th Hero of Darkness. And unlike my father, this child has special blessings and gifts which might even surprise someone like you." said Argos with a dignified voice.

He then told about the new Hero of Darkness' blessings and gifts received from the War Deity himself.

"What?! Great Ancestor Lord Kravel himself granted him blessings?

Are you kidding me?!" asked the 3-meter-tall being with a bewildered voice.

"Yes. He has potential.

That's why I contacted you since he was heading in your direction.

Even if you don't feel like it… It will be worth training him. After all…" spoke Argos with a mischievous smile.

"You were the one everyone hailed as the True Battle King." he revealed another fact about this powerful saint.

"Here's what you need to know about him and how he looks."

He told Kahn's divine abilities and skills including his appearance.

After an hour, their discussion finally came to an end.

"Fine! I will intercept him.

But if he is a moron like many of the Heroes… I will not take any responsibility." spoke the tall and ripped-bodied being with an indignant expression.

"Good. When you meet him… I want you to tell him something."

At this moment, what Kahn didn't know was that trouble was brewing on many fronts while he was quietly leaving behind the Elven Empire.

Unbeknownst to Kahn… his fate was already sealed.

2 DAYS LATER.

In an empire unknown… was the towering palace and among these sky-touching buildings that touched the clouds… was a particular room where one of the most important people in the empire was in a trance.

BOOM!!

The surroundings trembled as yellow waves of world energy burst open from a slim figure veiled in yellow robes and a hood shook the entire room.

"Argh!"

Blergh!

This individual suddenly opened his eyes and started vomiting blood as if he received an immense and life-threatening backslash.

For the next few minutes, his figure was caved on the pristine golden floor as he kept coughing blood.

Finally after great discomfort, did the individual manage to recover.

His forehead was full of sweat while his body was shaking in fear.

"Kahn Salvatore, you bastard!!" he shouted with eyes full of rage and intense killing intent.

"You will regret killing me!" he roared like a man going berserk while exuding a murderous aura.

"Dammit!! Now… I have already lost my biggest trump card.

I can no longer use it against Demon God or go back in time anymore." he spoke with a great sense of loss.

"Hero of Darkness… you ruined my life!

You ruined my reputation!

You ruined everything I worked so hard for!

I will find you and kill you myself!!" he kept shouting in a furious and thundering rage.

Soon, he walked close to a mirror on the wall and checked his appearance as well as his rank.

"No! I'm only a 4th stage saint!

Does it mean I have returned to 10 years ago instead of 5?" he questioned himself, his heart full of disbelief and trepidation.

"Did the spell fail?

But God of Time said it would send me back to the most suitable period which I could use to my advantage to win the war against the Demon God." he spoke in a mildly hushed voice.

"Well… even if I can't interfere with Demon God anymore… at least I know what happened in the future and what's about to happen in my personal life as well as other empires from now." spoke this chosen Hero.

"These bastards have used me since the very beginning.

My teachers, my party members and the imperial family… I was nothing but a pawn to them." he spoke with a vengeful tone.

"Well, at least now…. I know who my enemies are and I can unveil a lot of truth about what happened in the past at the same time.

With my knowledge of the future… I can become many times stronger than I was before I regressed in time." he said and finally, a clear and smug grin appeared on his face.

"I shall seek vengeance on everyone who wronged me.

I will mercilessly slaughter those who took advantage of my emotions, my friendship and my loyalty.

I will plan and get rid of all those bastards who had been using me as nothing but a sacrificial goat while telling me how much they believed in my strength. Ha ha ha!" he laughed maniacally.

"Just wait, you fuckers! You will come to regret the day you backstabbed me." he said with an ominous smile.

"As for the Hero of Darkness… I will lay a trap to kill him before he becomes that ridiculously strong to even go toe to toe against the Demon Emperor." he iterated with a confident voice under the hood.

"But where do I start?" he wondered and asked himself.

"Oh, that's right. The first time he appeared in front of the world…" said this Hero of Time and revealed an event of the future unknown to anyone else in the world.

"The Conclave of Heroes."
