Chapter 239: The War that Decides the Fate of 'The Bridge' Part 42
Chief Kody doesn't see that there's anything wrong with his body other than the fact that there's now a mark of where Kayn swung his sword just a short moment ago. But he does feel something weird inside his mind. It is as if even though he knows he hated Kayn, there's this belief that's being injected into his consciousness that he can never betray him and must follow everything that he orders him to do from now on and forever.
"I only fed you an apple," Kayn sat back on his chair opposite from Chief Kody.
"That was definitely not an ordinary apple," Chief Kody was still gasping for air.
"You're right, it isn't. It is called an Undead Apple,"
"An Undead Apple.." Chief Kody was shocked beyond belief. He knew about this item as he was there when Wesley introduced to everyone his ability. It was at that time when they were being briefed on what they would do during the war. If he remembers correctly, as long as he cut the Undead Apple into pieces and add it to the meal that the soldiers would be eating, they'll all fall under Wesley's charm. "Doesn't the Undead Apple charm people?"
"Was that what Wesley told you?" Kayn instantly realized how Chief Kody knew about the existence of Undead Apple. It's very apparent that Wesley plans to charm all the soldiers of the Green Horn City during the war through the spies they've secretly planted. "That's not the true use of Undead Apple,"
Just from the name itself, one can already assume what the Undead Apple is all about.
"The Undead Apple isn't meant to only charm people, it is a way to bring forth loyal soldiers from the dead," Kayn showed a sly grin on his face.
"From the dead?" Chief Kody instantly realized the truth. It finally explained the reason why he feels he has to be loyal to Kayn.
"Just don't go and try to kill yourself," Kayn discreetly gave the first order.
"Alright," Chief Kody really can't explain why and all, but he chooses to comply.
"Take a seat, and let's talk," Kayn motioned his hand to the chair opposite from him.
Chief Kody sat on the chair and Kayn started interrogating the former about everything he knows about the Assembly of Freedom.
Because of the effect of the Undead Apple, Chief Kody smoothly gave all the answers to Kayn's questions. Even though Chief Kody would occasionally think of resisting to answer the question, his effort was futile and it only remained inside his head as his mouth doesn't have the slightest intention of ever stopping.
In the end, Chief Kody gave away everything that he knew.
"Thank you for your service," Kayn nodded his head in appreciation for the complete cooperation of Chief Kody.
"What is going to happen to me now?" Chief Kody can't help feeling curious about how he will continue to live his life as an undead.
"You cease to exist,"
With a wave of his hand, Chief Kody's entire body turned into dust.
In an effort to cover up what he did, Kayn burned wood on the ground to make it seem like he burned Chief Kody alive.
It was only afterward that he ordered Jude and Charles to bring in Chief Kellan.
"What did you do to Chief Kody?!" Chief Kellan felt afraid after seeing the obvious chared traces on the floor. "Did you burn him alive in order to get information?"
"I did,"
"You failed?" Chief Kellan could easily guess what happened.
"You'll know the answer to that yourself," Kayn motioned his hand for Jude and Charles to go outside again.
"Do you want to know what happened to Chief Kody?" Kayn waves his hand, taking out the Molten Ice Sword once again.
"I.." Chief Kellan started backing away.
Bang! Bang!
"Hel..p.."
"Are you sure that it's okay to leave Kayn unsupervised to do whatever he wants with Chief Kody and Chief Kellan?" Emmet felt worried about the idea.historical
"We also don't know," Jude doesn't even have a clue what method Kayn is using. "But if there's one thing we understood after being with Kayn for a very long time now, that is to just think he knows everything that he is doing,"
"That's unbelievable if you think that he never makes a mistake,"
"He does make a mistake," Jude nodded. "We simply believe that he is capable enough to handle this kind of matter,"
"If you don't, feel free to get inside," Charles opened the door.
As the door was being pulled away, they instantly became surprised as they noticed a blood splatter on the door which wasn't supposed to be there from the start.
However, their surprise turned to shock as they witnessed Chief Kellan freely speaking everything he knows about the Assembly of Freedom.
?andasnovel·?om "You'll get used to it, someday," Jude slowly closed the door. In truth, even he is still not used to the fact that Kayn almost knows everything.
"Told you," Charles muttered albeit wearing a disbelief look on his face.
"I see.." Emmet finally understood to never question Kayn the next time.
"If he personally handles it, that simply means he got it," Lilith uttered. "This was what Captain Friedrich told me about. At first, I didn't get it, but now I finally understand its meaning,"
"You heard her, make sure to take note of that for future use," Emmet briefed his squad.
After five minutes, Kayn walked out of the room, and behind him was another charred patch on the floor where they saw him sitting just now.
"How'd you do it?" Emmet can't help asking.
"I have my means," Kayn obviously won't reveal the truth.
"So, what did you get?" Gilbert approaches.
"Every member of the Assembly of Freedom on our side,"
"As in all of them?" Gilbert was shocked.
"Everyone,"
"How?!" Emmet widened his eyes. He initially thought that even if he made Chief Kody and Chief Kellan reveal information about the Assembly of Freedom, it should only be surface-level sort of information.
"Grab me a pen and paper, I'll list every name I got from Chief Kody and Chief Kellan,"
In a frantic manner, everyone scurries off to find a pen and paper to give to Kayn.
As soon as they found one, Kayn started listing every name he got. Of course, Natas helped with those that he forgot as the latter was also with him inside the room.
"Search for all of these names and eliminate them, and don't forget to make a copy of it and submit it to Old Mayor George as I believe we still haven't gotten everyone here. Don't forget to emphasize the fact that they take care of it themselves instead of sending them here to waste time," Kayn cleaned his hand with a piece of paper before walking upstairs to start briefing the loyal members on what they have to do next.
