Paths to destiny. Chapter 77. Why the surprise?
As Kennedy came out, he looked around and was shocked to see that they were no longer in the middle of woods. He did not believe what he saw so he did not even waste a minute out there before he ran back into the tent. He did not know what he was feeling at this point."You need to see this...." The way he said that, full of shock was something that made the others curious but unwilling to go out until he had told what exathe saw outside which they must see. "What is it?""Is there a monster out there?"Gabriel and Gross asked respectively almost at the same time. Kevin was not too concerned about what was out there because he had not agreed from the beginning about leaving the tent. Yet he was also curious to know what was outside because of how Kennedy pant as he said that."We are out.... we are outside the forest....""That is a lie..." Kevin immediately disagreed as he left the tent without hesitation.The other followed him immediately, and the four of them were now sending ou

After the sharing of their experience to one another, Enoch and those who were with him came to realize that they had escaped the forest because of the activities of Gabriel and his crew. But in all they were happy they had all survived the forest which seemed as though they would never come out of. Kevin was expecting Riggs, Maxwell, Frost or Enoch to spot out that someone was missing, but none of them asked, nor did they mention that they had seen his corpse in the tent where it was left. He then had to tell them and stop waiting for them to ask. "We lost Noris."That was when Riggs said, "We already came across his dead body while we were still in the forest. It is obvious we know how he died."The response from Riggs explained to them why they did not ask about Noris. And now they all in one accord observed a minute silence for him.The night had come so they could not continue the journey that day again, so they laid in their tents till the morning.When it was morning, the tent

After Monroe Howard had returned out of the presence of Byron Hass, he was now pondering over how Monroe managed to know that his best warriors were no longer in the city. It was a thing to worry seriously about even if he had made Monroe to believe falsely, he knew that some way or another, thilat lie would be known. Now he was in a very moody state. Nothing seemed to make him happy again.When Aria heard that it was Monroe who had come to the house, she too was very worried as to why he came there unannounced. She rushed down to meet her husband in his court where he was thinking."My lord," she said as she barged into the hall, and seeing the state of Byron she knew that the coming to Monroe was something to worry seriously about. For his coming to make Byron the way he is, it really disturbed her to also find out what he had said to Byron, but his mood was not allowing her to ask the question she wanted to ask.Yet, she had to find a means to talk to her husband. So she went and s
Paths to destiny. Chapter 80. We had an agreement.
In the next few days, Dylan Ryan and Sebastian Peyton could not still discover why Byron made the statement he made in their last meeting and even Monroe Howard was still at the verge of his findings, still without any concrete evidence that Kevin and the rest of Byron's best men were no longer alive in the entire country.So the generals decided to make the second meeting which they had spoken about in their last meeting. The time frame since their last meeting was enough for any of them to have come to a final decision on what they last spoke about.When they had gathered again in the usual location, the meeting was said to be a simple and short one where they all would say their final thoughts about getting a new king."We should be snappy about whatever we are going to do, so I will be starting with mine." Sebastian started as the four of them were at this point standing in a circle. Getting the attention of all of them, he continued, "After much deliberation,I have come to the fi

Dylan in his place, did not totally refuse to do as he had agreed with the Sebastian and Monroe in their separate meeting because it would not favor him too, of course, that uniform agreement which they had was something that would be able to favor all three of them, but Dylan needed more time work out his plans very well and also confirm if Byron really have his best men alive in his city or there had been a plague that swept all of them off the face of the earth without them knowing. He knew that he was the least, so he wanted his own plan to be the best, thus he needed proof before doing anything.When Byron came to the house again, his wife Aria was busy waiting for his return in the court where he would always go whenever he returns from meetings like that. As he entered the hall and saw her, it was a new and strange thing to him. "Ah, to what do I owe this surprise?""Come seat first," she demonstrated as she touched his executive seat where he would always sit. She was also si

Seeing that they would not stop, the other six had no option than to pursue them.While they were running towards the village with strength from nowhere, the ground opened up and swallowed Maxwell who was taking the lead in the race.With what happened before him, Kevin who was next instantly forced himself to stop and fell to the ground.Those who were behind did not really see what happened to Maxwell, they only noticed Kevin falling down, and it was as if he slipped and fell.It was when they came to the spot where he had fallen and realized that he was not even making an attempt to get up that Enoch looked forward and could not see Maxwell who was ahead of them. "Maxwell is missing!!"As they heard this from him, they looked up too and could not find him running nor even on the ground."He is gone..." Kevin said, and they all turned to him at once as they did not get what he meant by that. "The sand just swallowed him, that is why I fell down."Hearing this Riggs, Enoch and Frost
Paths to destiny. Chapter 83. It's giant spiders....
When the seven of them were all awake, they prepared themselves, getting ready for whatever it was that was outside there, yet they were still frightened."Be calm," Gabriel motivated them. While Gross, moved closer to the window to peep and see what was out there. As he took the sight, he staggered backwards with more fear than before.With the manner in which he used to fall backwards, others could not ask him what he saw because it was obvious that whatever he saw was not a good thing to see.Frost gathered the courage to also look out of the window to see what gross had seen, and he too sighted the mysterious creature out there, he was shocked and shouted, "It's giant spiders..."Kevin rushed to cover his mouth, but he had already made the noise which they had been avoiding.Due to the noise that was made, the giant spiders that were moving around the village drew attention to where they were hiding. And with great speed, they all were running towards the hut.Gabriel looked from
Paths to destiny. Chapter 84. Familiar voice.
The seven of them rushed out of the hut which they had taken refuge in, just to confirm that their eyes were not playing tricks with them. And lo, it was true what they had seen, the spiders were gone as they had come. They were amazed, not knowing how that was possible."Should we leave here?" Frost asked a random question.With what had just happened, they were still confused on what to do, Gabriel, Kevin and Gross stood by them remaining in the villa because it was the only place in desert which green vegetations was able to grow, so they were saying that they should remain in the villa and not let the mysterious thing that happened cause them to leave that good land.Meanwhile, Riggs, Enoch and Kennedy were saying the opposite, they said the journey should be continued, in as much as those giant spiders came out from nowhere, they were going to be back.Now there was a disagreement between them on what to do. Frost, who had asked the question, did not know where to side, he was ve

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

Chapter 189. I will speak for myself.
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
