Liam was not stupid.
Although Zeke had only given him a measly spirit pill, he felt how much more powerful it was than the usual pills dispensed by the Khan.
Besides, Zeke had given him ten of them, it was a very generous gift.
Liam could only guess as to how Zeke got his hands on them; Zeke had his own personal medicine man! Medicine men were well respected throughout the land, this can be seen in how Lincoln was treated by the Khan.
The medicine men can be categorized into nine levels: from a one starred healer to a nine starred wizard, the quality of their pills followed the same ranking.
There were not many medicine men around, in the whole of Starlight, only two have been seen.
Lincoln was only a medicine man of the lowest tier, yet he was paraded around Khan grounds like royalty.
It was frightening to think about the prowess the medicine man behind Zeke had.
This guess had further strengthened Liam' s resolve to follow Zeke.
However, the truth was, Zeke himself was the man behind the pills.
It was hard to blame Liam for not knowing, after all, the requirements to become a medicine man were too strict, and too demanding.
Only a select few had the right, and the skill, to become one.
Besides, Zeke was never formally trained before, how could Liam know?
"Good. Well, tell me, what news do you bring?" Zeke asked while he nodded knowingly.
"My Lord!" Liam began,
"Your place in the Khan has risen dramatically! Those that supported you before have now taken to protecting you!
"Mitch himself no longer dares to oppose you publicly, However, the servants that he had sent your way were all there to spy on you.
"Also, Lincoln had stopped producing pills due to his injuries!"
Liam revealed all that he knew.
Zeke nodded slightly when he heard this, they were valuable information.
"Never knew there were those that supported me back home," Zeke sighed.
"Yes My Lord, in fact, there is one more thing I need to tell you," Liam replied suddenly.
"What is it?" Zeke pressed.
"From what I hear, among those who support you, is your uncle," Liam replied.
"Hmm?" Zeke pressed, curious.
The uncle in question was none other than Sean Khan, youngest brother of the three head Khans.
However, Sean Khan was a private person, he rarely showed himself.
He did not care much for his position in the Khan either.
Zeke had only met Sean a few times in his previous life, never once did he think that Sean supported him.
"Yes My Lord! In fact, he has been supporting you in the shadows! He often secretly helped you when you were in danger," Liam replied.
This news shocked Zeke.
Zeke contemplated further, if it were not for Sean's interference, no doubt Mitch would have killed him earlier.
"This is great news!"
Zeke exclaimed, and nodded approvingly.
…
A bright moon rose into the night sky, its silver glow illuminated everything beneath it.
Under the moonlight, a man held a longsword, and sent forth his energy, this allowed his manifestations to clash against one another, thus, causing beautiful yet almost invisible shimmers to echo throughout the night sky.
The mystical swords flew about in tight formation, their Focus' were fierce.
It looked as though the entire night sky was covered in swords.
It was here, right outside the perimeter of the sword's tempest, a group of four who hid in the forest.
