Paths to destiny. Chapter 173. You again!
After a very long time of weeping in secret for the bracelet that was cut as he remembers all the instructions given to him by the witch concerning the bracelet. Then his mind then came to the awareness that Byron cut the bracelet on purpose. That it was his mission there in his house, but what he could not understand was how he was able to know what he wore in his hands.He knew that he had messed up by allowing himself to be fooled by Byron but he had to get up and see what he could do. So he journeyed to the cave of the witch and met her in the usual way. He started by apologizing to her because he was sure she had seen the reason for his coming there. "I'm very sorry. I was fooled by Byron and now I am seriously in need of your help. I know there is something you can do to make sure I win the duel. Please help me."She looked up at him after he had paused for a minute. "There is nothing I can do. You chose to take a bracelet of power and incredible strength. You can remember very
Paths to destiny. Chapter 174. Agreement with the witch.
Despite the ferrous look and anger on Gabriel and Enoch's faces, the witch chose to laugh as though they were joking and would not dare to strike her with their swords. "You two act like fools. If I wanted you dead then I would have killed you while you were still asleep."Her talk made sense to them but it still did not cause them to lay down their weapons. They did not care whether she would have killed them or not, all they knew was that now they were awake, they would kill her if they had to. Enoch wanted to proceed to smite her to death like he had wanted to do the first time when he saw her, but Gabriel stopped him again like he had done before. "Enoch wait! I think we might have a use for her.""You shouldn't be thinking up to this point. You definitely need my help but it will be exchanged for something." The witch said."Gabriel not again! Let me kill this witch." Enoch did not like the idea that they were wanting to start negotiating over something.Then Gabriel whispered t
Paths to destiny. Chapter 175. Re-enforcement.
The witch, after disappearing from the presence of Gabriel, Enoch and Gross, appeared again in her shrine and her head was still apart from her body, yet she was still alive. So she used her mind to send for Dylan to rush down there immediately. Dylan got the signal from her and it seemed to be the signal which she told him he would once she gets the scepter for him. So he did not waste a signal moment. It was an emergency call and he rode to her cave with speed.Getting there, he was surprised to see that her body was not together with her head but she could still break and talk. Fear gripped him that he became startled and motionless, standing still at the entrance."Don't you dear stand there and do nothing. You know what to do." The witch's head spoke to him.And with fear he hurried, picked the head from the angle it was and then joined it again with the body. Instantly, the witch was as though nothing had happened to her. She cracked her neck and focused on the source of her po
Paths to destiny. Chapter 176. Counter-attack.
She appeared in front of them while they were still running to meet the grand gods. They were still a good distance away from their destination.Seeing her before them, the three of them halt, drawing out their weapons again to fight her. This time they knew that she was not there to exchange words with them anymore because of her manner of appearance.As they pressed forward to attack her because the best form of defense was attack and that was what they wanted to do. She made use of her powers by merely stretching out her right hand, and they were thrown to the ground in a worse partner than the way the scepter pushed her.But they did not waste a single minute on the ground, they were falling, that was the same way they were standing back to their feet, they did not want her to get close to them while they were lying on the ground.Although she was given extreme strength by the evil forces, it did not affect her age at this point. She was still slow as an old woman and that was bec

All of a sudden, the fireballs disappeared even before getting to them. It was a surprise to them and also to the witch. She did not know what happened nor why it happened. So she released another set. Supporting this second attack was all manner of blades from nowhere, but they all got to a point and stopped, vanishing to heaven knows where. This gave the three men so much courage that they were not alone in the fight anymore. So they slowly began to draw close to her, still maintaining their formation.As they came close, she kept releasing magical cantrip but all would stop at a certain distance away from them. So she concluded that she would not have changed the formula of attack. Thus, she returned to using the partner of invisible magic smells. Still it was not affecting them anymore."Give up!" Gabriel said to her while she continued to make failed attempts as they enclosed her. "Never!" She swore as gathered momentum to release the ultimate magic spell. But it was too late, t
Paths to destiny. Chapter 178. The duel.
It was the day of the duel and the four generals had gathered to take the challenge which they had planned for, and a multitude of people came to bear witness of who the winner would be and who would emerge that day as their new king. The duel was definitely a tough one since none of the generals chose to accept defeat. They were all determined to win and ascend the throne.But after a long time of no one wanting to yield to the other, the evil spirit came and empowered Dylan greatly for he had been fighting with his mortal strength all along and as he was strengthened, that was the same way they cursed his opponents to gradually lose strength and one after another they yielded to defeat.Byron was the one to first notice this, so he was the first to accept defeat so as to avoid the revelation of his death from coming to pass, even though he knew that he had shattered the plan, he still had to be conscious of his life and not take too much risk.After he accepted defeat, Sebastian an
Paths to destiny. Chapter 179. Between the immortals.
Now Byron did not have any other questions again, he kind of understood why he had to replace the former general of Mayca, and he thought maybe it was because a city still needed to be saved. One that will fight against evil and ensure that it does not succeed over good. Since the witch was dead, he had to wait just as Quincy had suggested till the time when information would be revealed to them.While they waited for words from the gods, they prepared for anything and then tried to reconcile the people of Mayca back to the gods. So that worship will be ascribed back to them in the way it used to be before the era of no King.But this appeared to be very difficult to do since it appears that the hearts of the people had shifted very far away from the gods. It was not surprising at all because it had been more than two decades since people talked much about the gods and ascribing worship to them. Almost all the people in the Mayca had come to believe that the gods were dead and didn't
Paths to destiny. Chapter 180. The return to Tadeas.
Then the three of them looked at themselves in amazement, the thing was such that they've not seen nor heard of before, but they did not want to kill time staring at each other. They instantly opened the gate which they had wanted to open before the appearance of Elmer Banks and they came into a white environment and they could see the grand god seated on a throne high above. They did not need anyone to tell that he was the god they had come to see. So in one accord they paid homage to him, by kneeling down and bowing their heads."You may rise," the god said with a trembling voice that seemed to shake the place. "You have journeyed so far, proving yourself to both spirits and gods, Titans and monsters. But now, you will still have to prove yourself to one last set of beings, the set that happens to be without definition because of their unpredictable nature."When they heard this, even though they were ignorant of what being the god spoke of, they knew that this being will be the mos

Chapter 196. A new era.
When the signing and positioning of the generals were done, four eldest men of Tadeas, one from each city each stood out to make the announcement of who the new king will be, for it was a tradition in Tadeas that the eldest men from each city will come together to put the crown on the head of every new king, and they will pray him before and after doing this, asking that the gods will grant them the wisdom to lead the country in the right and appropriate way that will be pleasing to the whole nation.So the elders held their hands together as they prayed for the crown and the throne, asking that it would not control the king but rather the king should control it. Afterwards, they called forth Dylan Ryan, who the whole people had gathered to watch him being crowned.While he walked up to meet these men, he looked at Gabriel and was surprised that he hadn't brought out the scepter yet, so his mind was beginning to calm down, as he inhaled and exhaled rapidly while climbing up to the thr

Chapter 195. Coronation day.
In the city of Mayca, at the house of Byron Haas, the message which Sebastian had sent by means of his raven bird got to the soldiers at the gate, and they took it out from the bird, letting it fly back to its city.They knew that every message that came to them by that means and pattern was for lord Byron Haas so they did not bother checking it to confirm who it was for before sending it to Byron, who was still making arrangements for the next day's event. "My lord, there is a message for you." The guard said as he came before Byron.Then she turned and looked at the soldier before asking, "Who is it from?""Lord Sebastian of Gilroy."Then he took the note from his hand to read its contents only to see the inscription that it was not for him, rather it was for Gabriel. So he said to the soldier that had brought. "Take this to Gabriel, he is the one it's for and not me." Then he took it as he confirmed whether it was for Gabriel, before apologizing. "I'm sorry my lord, I thought it

Chapter 194. Sensing failure.
In the city of Cyb, as the day for the coronation of Dylan Ryan drew closer than ever, that was the same his curiosity and anxiety grew the most. He was not as happy as he ought to be because he was still unable to figure out the plan which Byron and Gabriel had. Even though he had made sure his army was strong enough to defend him in case of violence, he still feared that there would not be any march for the plan that Byron had made.His greatest anger was that he had no power backing him up this time and even with the warning of the spirit of the witch, he still did not want to as she had told him. He was bent on winning by all means, but he could already sense failure in the plan he had made.Sensing failure was not still enough to tell him to give up the throne, a greater part of him was telling him that there was no plot against him being crowned king over Tadeas, because his spies had not brought any word telling him such, it was still a presumption in his heart there was a plan

Chapter 193. Regrets.
Byron had to speak again, "For the last time, we don't have any plan of which we need your help for it to succeed. In short, there is no plan at all to stop the coronation. Since you and Monroe Howard have refused to come to the realization that Gabriel is the only king Tadeas should have at this point, then he would not fight for any throne. On the day of the coronation, as the country will match to watch Dylan Ryan ascend the throne, that is the same way Gabriel and I along with my men will match to witness the king who you have refused to oppose ascend the throne.""But I am telling you right here that I confess Gabriel as my king and I'm ready to do anything to make sure he ascends the throne in his father's stead."Then Gabriel chose to test him since he had made so much pleading and claims that he is now a new person. "To prove to me that you are not the same as you used to be, you will have to take me to the place where you buried my father. I am quite aware that it was you and

Chapter 192. Trustworthy.
So Byron had to come in without allowing him to go further. "Yes, that reminds me, did you tell Monroe about it? And what was his response?""No, I did not tell him about this because he does not know anything about this, so I did not see the need to disturb him with it because he would not understand a signal word that will come from my mouth.""That means you literally have not done anything about what you know that will lead this country to its doom?""Yes. I did not do anything because there is nothing I can single handedly do. I asked for your help yet you did not consent to it. Meaning that you do not want to do anything about it so I also have to forget about doing anything concerning it. So that we will both watch the country be destroyed because that is what you want by not wanting to help me in confronting Dylan to forfeit his interest."Sebastian was really doing a great job at this point to convince Byron into believing that he was a changed person who would want to see Ga

Chapter 191. Pure lies.
Byron could see that Sebastian had a point in the two things that he had suspected concerning why they were there in his city, but none of them was correct, so he chose to tell him the reason why he had come into Gilroy but did not get to his house, whether he believes it or not. "Well, I do not doubt your thoughts. You are very justified to think that way but then I have to tell you that none of what you said is correct, nor is it even close to the true reason why we were in your lands.""Then speak up. Tell me why you were there and why you returned?""Of course I will. Actually, we were coming to speak to you, but not concerning what you told us. Instead, it is because of what we heard and needed to know the truth. But before we got to your house, we received word that the reason why we were coming there was already settled, so we had to turn around.""Lies! Pure lies.""It's not a lie.""Then prove it. Prove to me that what you have said about your reason to come into Gilroy is no

Chapter 190. Quiting pretense.
Gabriel was not in haste to respond to him as he discerned what he was trying to do. He kept silent as those with him also realized what Monroe was trying to do and they could now see with their own eyes that Monroe deserved to pay for all that he had done.Just as Gabriel was finally about to say something in response to the question that Monroe had asked, Wagner entered into the hall again with the five men he had gone to call for Gabriel and his company."These are the men you seek?" Wagner said.All their attention shifted to theen that had been brought before them. Then Byron said as he suspected something far different from what Monroe had been telling them since they arrived there. "I know you very well Monroe, you are quick to anger and will never let such crime go unpunished, so tell me, why haven't you asked for the execution of these men?" Monroe was dumbfounded, even Wagner that had called them there, what Byron had said was exactly what Monroe Howard would do if he truly

The other people were still down, they did not bother stressing themselves to climb up with him because they knew that he would still come down and when he did, they would know what he was up to.As they saw him coming down with the rate he was using and Enoch following him, they blocked him from walking pass through as they predicted what he was about to do."Gabriel, not now. The right time for this is near." Byron said to him."Please, let me pass. Monroe has done more than enough to be forgiven.""But I just told you that he was not the one that sent his men to abduct me. They acted on their own will without hearing from their master." Abby reminded him of what she had told them earlier."You can never trust that man. Maybe it was a plan which he made with his men, even if it wasn't, he still wants me dead and I have to kill him before he kills me.""Yes, we know, but this is not time, let's give him a little more time to make amends and if he doesn't then we shall execute him."

Chapter 188. Abby's release.
Then they were happy, thinking that he had thought about what they told him concerning using Abby to get Gabriel to come there. So they stopped and looked at him."Untie her." He commanded. So they loosed the ropes used to tie her hands, also the blindfold was taken off including the mouth which had been covered. Then she could see lord Monroe Howard and she knew that he was innocent of the crime which his men had done because she had heard what he said to them.When she was now loose, Monroe said to her. "What is your name, young lady?""My name is Abby, my lord.""Abby, please forgive my men, they had acted stupidly. I did not give the order to bring you here, instead they had acted on their own will and I am greatly against it. They will take you back home safely. I am truly sorry for the stress it has put you through.""It's okay my lord. Thank you for not adhering to their suggestions. You have proved yourself to be a man of honor and good standard." "Once again, congratulation
