Chapter 199: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 2

"Silence!" Old Mayor George roared.

In a heartbeat, the entire tent turned to a point of pin-drop silence.

"You can speak one at a time. We are no longer immature kids to blast out our opposing remarks at the same time. Not to mention, you failed to recognize the fact that he stole the Kingmaker with his own effort," Old Mayor George looks at Chief Kody. "How would you feel if someone steal the Rockstone Town from you despite the fact that you did all the efforts to establish your territory?"

"I won't take it easy," Chief Kody lowered his head in realization.

"Exactly! Moreover, this young man is just a kid. He isn't even supposed to be involved in this war of ours, yet he came to the enemy's territory and stole a valuable weapon that can change the tide of war from them. Now, tell me, will you take away the Kingmaker from him?" Old Mayor George looks everyone dead in the eyes.

"Even I don't dare do it, not only because he is the son-in-law of the Mayor of the Moon Dragon City, but also because he deserves the Kingmaker by getting it with his own efforts,"

"Wait a minute," Chief Kody interjected. "Did you just say that this young man is the son-in-law of the Mayor of the Moon Dragon City?"

"That's right!" Old Mayor George nodded.

"Then I don't have any problem," Chief Kody immediately looks at Kayn in a different light.

It wasn't only Chief Kody, so was Chief Kellan, Chief Kash, Chief Harlem, and Chief Perceval.

As for Emmet and Fabian, they can only look at Friedrich and Chastine with a why-didn't-you-tell-us-about-it look on their faces.

Seeing this, Kayn can't help shaking his head. He realizes that this was Old Mayor George's aim from the start after the others opposed his decision.

He doesn't know if the others understood it, but all he knows is they are people that he should stay as far away as possible. If he didn't possess such status, there's no doubt that these people would harbor ill intentions toward him after knowing that he has the Kingmaker.

Of course, it is his fault that he revealed the weapon out in the open. But there's no use hiding it anyway because Chief Kylo would definitely announce that he stole it from him with the obvious intention of making his side turn against him.

By doing this, he negated such a possibility early on before the start of the war.

Evidently, Old Mayor George understood this, so he went along with Kayn's plan and made sure that it won't happen during the war.

Most likely, Old Mayor George would summon him in the evening to talk about the Kingmaker.

"Let's talk this evening," Old Mayor George whispers while everyone was preoccupied with themselves.

Kayn casually nodded his head before walking behind Old Mayor George.

Not long after, Old Mayor George interrupted everyone from their personal talks as they soon continued with their discussion about the plan for the upcoming war.

…..

In the evening, Kayn entered Old Mayor George's hut as the latter summoned him.

As much as he was opposed to it as he wanted to sleep because he lacks enough rest today, he doesn't have any other choice since it is undeniably an important matter.

"Who knows about you having the Kingmaker aside from everyone inside the tent?" Old Mayor George asked while motioning his hand for Kayn to take a sit.

Kayn sat on the sofa and looked at Old Mayor George. Behind the latter was Friedrich, his most trusted man.

"Gilbert, Jude, Charles, Jericho, and Jadiel," Kayn didn't leave a single person's name behind.

"I understand Gilbert, Jude, and Charles, but I am worried about Jericho and Jadiel. Do you really trust the people from the Herald Guild?" Old Mayor George expresses his concern.

"If only you knew how trustworthy they are, you will not ask me that question," Kayn thought inwardly. Needless to say, his true response was, "I believe that they are trustworthy,"

"In that case, should I invite them to the next meeting?" After all, the Herald Guild deserves to know the plan.

"I'll inform them if that is what you wish," Kayn didn't disagree nor agree.

"Anyways," Old Mayor George stood up and walks to the sofa opposite from Kayn to sit down. "What do you plan on doing with the Kingmaker now that you have it?"

"I want to research it first before deciding on what to do with it. That's because the first time I witnessed one of its abilities, it causes such a catastrophic ending for a lot of people who volunteered to surrender,"

"Was that a Passive Skill?" Old Mayor George assumes Kayn already checked the description of the Kingmaker.

"Yes," Kayn nodded. "The Passive Skill is called <<Cost of Loyalty>>. Anyone that swears on the Master of the Kingmaker is forbidden from ever betraying them. Otherwise, they will be in the control of the Master of the Kingmaker,"

Although Chief Kylo isn't officially the Master of the Kingmaker yet, neither is him, as long as one holds the Kingmaker, they will automatically be considered the temporary Master.

"What a scary ability," Old Mayor George slightly shivered at the thought. He already imagines the possibility of someone unknowingly swearing loyalty to Chief Kylo but because he betrayed him he ended up being under the latter's full control and got turned into a crazy animal.

"It is called the Kingmaker for a reason,"

The name of a weapon generally reflects its given ability. Kings are people who rule kingdoms, and throughout history, their greatest downfall is mostly because of the betrayal of their people. This Kingmaker simply solved that problem by making the people who betrayed its owner pay a price for their unhonourable action.

"Other than that, what are the other Passive and Activie Skills of the Kingmaker," Old Mayor George was genuinely curious about the weapon as it is his first time encountering something very powerful and one of a kind.

Without holding back, Kayn started informing Old Mayor George of the abilities of the Kingmaker. He doesn't mind at all since he trusts the latter and he also trusts Friedrich who's listening as well.
