Lord of the Truth

Chapter 267 Oath Tablet

”Kneel you bastard!” Arkis yelled at a handcuffed human in front of him

,m *baa*

Orzon looked at the person kneeling on the ground in disgust, then looked at Robin again and spoke, ”This is who you asked for.. he was being chased by a demon, instead of giving up to fate or trying to outrun the demon he lead him towards an entire family who was on their way to collect fruits around the village and then left them to getting eaten alive and ran away, it ended up killing the father, mother and five children, with He could have run a little longer and reached the village where we were going to protect him.”

”I didnʼt know there was a family there, I was running randomly when we bumped into the family, I tried to pull the demon towards me again but he just ignored me! I swear thatʼs what happened!!” The kneeling person started screaming and crying

”...” Orzon was silent for a moment and then continued, looking at Robin, ”You can see why we havenʼt executed him yet, you said you wanted someone who deserved to die... here he is, do whatever you want.”

Robin approached the prisoner with the metal tablet in his hand and spoke without introduction, ”Pass your soul sense here, and as an experiment say: I have breathed more than once in my lifetime, and if I didnʼt, I deserve to die.”

Orzon furrowed his eyebrows upon hearing this, even Jabba looked at Robin strangely

”I have breathed more than once in my life, and if I didnʼt, I deserve to die.” feeling intimidated by the situation around him and with the giant in the tent, the prisoner spoke without hesitation

After Robin nodded and waited ten seconds, then spoke again, ”Good, now say: I didnʼt mean to lead the demon toward the family, and if I did, I deserved to die.”

”Uh… I… I didnʼt mean to lead the demon toward the family, and if I did, I deserved to die!” The prisoner announced, but suddenly was followed by the sound of ”...Kgkhkhakh”

Then he fell to the ground, and all traces of life disappeared from his body.

Orzon stood quickly, eyes wide open as if struck by lightning, and Jabba quickly took a few steps and began to examine the prisonerʼs corpse in astonishment.

”Oh my God..” Arkis who was standing behind the prisoner muttered and took a step back, there was no need to check his condition, the prisoner was definitely dead

”What was that?!” Orzon regained his balance and asked

”The oath tablet, records the imprint of a personʼs soul, the oath he takes, and the punishment he chose, and then remains in constant contact with him through his soul, If the person even tries to break his oath, he will be punished immediately accordingly” Robin spoke with a smile and returned to his seat, ”I initially chose to try an easy oath so you wouldnʼt think that the Oath Tablet kills randomly, I hope you trust what I said now.”

”What oath and what punishment?” Jabba asked after letting the head of the corpse hit the ground again

”Any oath that comes to your head, and any punishment that can affect the soul... for example, feeling severe pain, forgetting something or, of course, death.” Robinʼs reply

”Interesting,” Jabba moved toward Robin and took the tablet from him and then passed his Spiritual Sense through it, ”I, Jabba, am not the number one talent in the Land of the Lightning Tribe and all the surrounding lands, if Iʼm wrong I deserve to feel the pain of a hundred stabs!”

*pfffft*

Jabba spat thick blood from his mouth and fell on his back, ”AAAAhhhhhh... I knew it! Iʼm number one!! Ahhh... AAhh”

Robin shook his head and laughed loudly, ”The tablet wonʼt come out and do research to see if you are right, as long as you believe your oath the tablet will believe you, that means that at least you fully believe that you are the number one talent in the Lightning Tribe and the surrounding lands. ”

” a show-off.” Orzon muttered, looking at the blood from Jabbaʼs mouth and then looking at Robin, ”Well you have proven the tabletʼs power, and then...?”

”The three of us make a mutual oath to keep each otherʼs secrets and help each other, this will make you trust Jabba and for me to trust both of you enough to say what I have... What do you think?”

”Okay! Anything to take away.. this stupid talisman off my neck... coughs.” Jabba said, with difficulty he managed to sit up again.

”....” Orzon remained silent and then sighed and looked at an Arkis who was still standing in amazement not knowing why he was in a meeting like this in the first place, ”Arkis, first your wife sacrificed herself to protect a girl that had a divine tattoo, and now your daughter has found And saved the Third Heaven Chosen and sent him to us at the const of her life, and you yourself work hard for humanity day and night... From today you are my right hand, and your family will go down in our history books as the ideal family throughout our history, thank you.”

”The Third Heaven Chosen is a human?! My daughter died? I... I…” Arques took a few steps back, the too much information he heard hit him on the head like a hammer, he did not know whether to grieve or rejoice, celebrate or cry...

He fell to his knees and put his forehead on the ground toward Robin and shouted, ”My daughter must have gone to the ancestors proud, thank you for giving her this opportunity, thank you for coming to us.”

Robin got up and went to get the man on his feet and wiped his tears and said, ”Thank you for raising your daughter well.”

”Alright, Arkis, you may go home to rest now. Send the men around the tent to their positions as well. I donʼt want anyone to come within a hundred meters of the tent,” Orzon pointed out to the weeping man, ”I have much to talk about today with Mr. Third Heaven Chosen and Mr. Jabba.”
