My Last Hunt

Class Test 34

"This silence would not help us. The news would spread soon. The powerful dens of the North Sepedra would come looking for us." One of the members spoke. There were only seven Council members in the main hall. 

Other looked at Hiko. This beast seemed on fire. It did not fear Lord Beast. Hiko could see the possible outcome of the recent events so it was not concerned to offend Lord Beast. Lord Beast has already proved his incapability of holding the strings of the North Sepedra properly. 

Things were getting out of hands. He was unable to give proper explanation of the destruction yet again the new crisis rose up heads. "Indeed we cannot think of a way. It is not responsibility of council members to keep guard of the North Sepedra or the related matters. The Lord Beast should prepare the answer without dragging us in the report." 

A council beast spoke finding courage from the words spoken by Hiko. Lord Zim wide opened his eyes. The other council members were equally shocked. However they could not refute the words. It was indeed the responsibility of the Lord Beast. 

They were responsible for their powerful dens. The atmosphere in the main hall completely changed. Now the council members were worried for own good. There was possibility that the cunning Lord Beast might involve them without reason. They did not want to face accusation from the higher level beasts. 

"May I take it as your revolt?" Lord Zim asked to confirm. He was not much surprised because he knew beast nature. He was surrounded with one after other crisis. Apparently there was no way to come out of it. The previous crisis might have lost importance however this newer shattered all illusions.

"I will also support this council member. The future of the Lord Beast has dulled already. I will return back to my den and relate the present situation." another council member stood up. There was no use of tagging along the dead Lord Beast. 

In fact now they were responsible to inform the Frost Fire Continent about the present situation. The higher level beasts were counting on them to stand in the first war while the North Sepedra was facing chaos.

They needed to take steps before it got too late. Lord Zim was thinking how to change their decision while Lowa was standing at the inner door. She could see that the things were no same and she was well aware who killed this strongest beast. 

When it comes to battle, no one could stand in front of Qiao. Now she was sure that he was still in the North Sepedra. "I am sure by collective collaboration we can kill the spy. You cannot go against my orders." Lord Zim spoke however his words lost worth. 

Half of the council members left main hall. Hiko was also among them. It was leading powerful den and could not support defeated Lord Beast. In fact the present circumstances were favorable to get rid human Lord Beast. 

This was the only reason that Hiko did not speak in his favor. Three council members left behind. They did not add any concern or their thoughts instead kept quiet. "I was wondering if Lord Beast could still cover the situation." one of them asked. 

"I would not leave any effort. I am loyal with the North Sepedra, the beasts of this place are my responsibility. I should have taken some strong actions to stop the spy. But I cannot come out of this problem without your help." Lord Zim spoke sincere. 

He was no more concerned about his future after half of the council members refute to remain loyal to him. Lord Zim wanted to save his present, his life. "I do not want to die blamed as traitor. I have worked for the beasts honestly." Lord Zim walked near them away from his high seat. 

"You are after all a traitor, aren't you?" the second council member taunted. Lord Zim wanted to slap this council member however he controlled his anger. "I am traitor for Hightown not for beasts." He answered. 

"It is not time to talk about such things. We can send our beasts to search every corner of the North Sepedra and all the islands come under it. I am sure that spy is still hiding here." The third council member added. 

Presently their concern was to kill the spy and stop the expected revolt. Lord Zim understood and gathered all loyal beasts. Their responsibility was to search every inch of all islands, no matter among the population or the deserted forest. 

The council members also separated to render help in this search. Lord Zim took charge to investigate his daughter and nearing islands around the black building. He did not speak among the council members however he was doubtful about Lowa. 

The situation started getting worse after her arrival in the North Sepedra. He has strong reason to doubt her. Lowa hurriedly went back in her room. She was afraid of Lord Zim. Lord Zim kicked on the door and entered inside. 

He asked her whether she brought the spy along. Lowa was innocent she did not know when Qiao came in the North Sepedra. She shook her head that she did not bring any spy. Lord Zim slapped her. Lowa crashed against the black wall of the room and fell unconscious. 

Lord Zim left for some time to return back and investigate again. He was fuming with anger. Just because of the circumstances, the low-key council member taunted him at his face. 

He would not forget this humiliation and take revenge when the things would settle. Lord Zim thought and left the black building.

Felon took the most dangerous step to get rid the chain around its neck. In this attempt half of the shoulder and the neck got burned. Fortunately it did not bring any vital damage to life. At the evening the Trifire and felon were ready to leave the Trifire hellish Island.
