Chapter 292 [Bonus chapter] Catching A Whale The Covenant was his greatest weapon at this time, and now was the right time to use it, he was sure the Order of Broken Eyes would have ways to estimate his current strength and no matter how much power he displayed, they would be able to comfortably counter it. It was the reason he was so flashy with his battles, he even fought Dorian on the moon, so the battle could be streamed live to the entire Empire. It was all a trap! He would kill any member of the Order who came for him, and he was expecting anyone else , but when he felt that Rune Sweep past him, he nearly grinned in happiness. Everyone had a unique Energy Signature that was similar to the Auras around their bodies, and he knew this Signature, in a manner that you could even describe as intimate. Was it not this same Energy Signature that creeped into his body and robbed him of his free will, his father had been smiling at him, while commandeering his body like a puppet, and only Rowan's Icy Soul had saved him. But what was disturbing about that rune he had felt was that when it swept past him, he had felt the countless souls inside his Mental Space tremble. Whatever methods Grigori Kuranes—The Third Prince was using, it could affect souls. It was the first time he had come across anyone else with such an ability. Perhaps the Third Prince might not be aware, but he would have great enemies waiting for him outside the Universe, that is if he could survive Rowan first. He had expected a large prey to fall for the trap, but he did not expect to catch a whale. He understood that in the nearest future even the power of the Covenant would not be considered as valuable to him anymore when he began waging wars outside the universe against the keepers, so even if he had to cooperate with them, it must be in a manner that was carefully planned, else, his enemies would not only be Empire but the Mages and Demons as well, two Supreme Worlds. Everything changed when he discovered that with his pillar of consciousness, he could stay as long as he wanted inside the Anima of the Demon Prince. That means he could now explore all the options available to him, and make the best use of them without the constraints of time. The ongoing war on Trion was the most heated of all the conflicts, but it would be a mistake to consider the entire scope of the war to be only limited to the surface of Trion, for in fact it was spread all over the Empire. Small pockets of resistance had been seeded all over the Empire in order to cause chaos and destabilize the Empire from the inside. From giving civilians weapons of mass destruction, or enchanting them to summon and be possessed by demons, there were many methods of subterfuge and hidden war ongoing in all the planets of the Empire. Part of the reason Ohrox had been given so many benefits, was the fact that the members of the Covenant thought he was the one responsible for the Beast Disaster on Jarkarr. They were right, but not on how he was able to achieve that feat, which was a matter of pure luck and chance. Yet, Rowan discovered that his presence was not the only Covenant forces on Jarkarr. The first clue he had was all related to the timeline the Primordial Record folded away; there were so many truths revealed in that vision that he had used it to guide his path ever since. He had seen a Demon that reminded him of Ohrox on the planet before he devoured it, it was a bestial figure and walked on four legs, it had a compelling presence and Rowan had been looking for signs of his presence ever since. When Rowan had seen the tentacle creature covering the Anima of Boreas, he understood it purpose and who was the one that would have most likely kept it there, just as he only knew one other Demon Prince that should have his subordinate down in this world. Kohron, Prince of Strife. Rowan needed time, and he was sure the Order was aware of that fact, and they must be desperate to stop him from having it, and so he had to damage the Order badly enough for him to be able to develop in peace for a few years. He could not make the Covenant move against their will, but he could give them benefits. He set his plans in motion, even before this battle began. ? 𝐟𝚛𝕖𝚎𝕨𝗲𝐛𝚗𝐨𝐯𝐞𝕝.𝐜𝗼𝗺 [A few hours ago.] Inside the hall of the Covenant, Rowan whose mind was controlling the Anima of Ohrox had his eyes closed, and suddenly, it snapped open with an audible crack. "Oracle." The Demon Prince growled, "Attend me!" "State your wishes, Prince of Destruction." "How do I summon the other members of the Covenant for an impromptu meeting?" The genderless voice of the Oracle spoke, "Calling each of their names here should be enough to summon them. Would that be all?" "Yes, you are dismissed." Rowan considered his next move and who he wanted fighting for him, and then he made his decision, "Kohron, Prince of Strife. I require your presence." Rowan had thoughts on how to use the Covenant without giving away too much of his hand, and the safest option was Kohron, because he shared the same history with Ohrox they were both Demon Princes and were from the Great Abyss, and he appeared to be his supporter in the Covenant, and most importantly he already had a subordinate inside Jarkarr. It did not take long for the Anima of Kohron to rouse itself, the wings of the demon spread open wide and a long groan came from him. His blazing eyes blinked, and he looked at Rowan before he chuckled, "Ohrox, I was wondering when you would call for me, it has been months," The demon placed his hands up as if he was stopping Rowan from speaking, "and don't tell me, I know in your position you would want to be safe and away from outside influence as much as possible, but I hope you will understand that I do not hunt weak prey, if I'm going to kill you, it would be at your prime, not this faded version of you."
