Chapter 49 – Consequences of One’s Choices and Actions (5)
“It’s about the forces behind the two types of beings.”
Zelit scowled. He didn’t expect to hear this from the leader of the fifth recruits; the words ‘forces’ and ‘two types of beings’ in particular piqued his attention.
“By two types of beings…do you mean the cursed ones who had gone mad and the broken ones?”
The hero nodded.
“There were different forces pulling the strings behind the scene?”
“Yes,” the hero said while gasping for air. “What do you think is the reason why the mutation happened in the first place?”
Zelit paused, stopping himself from calling the hero’s statements nonsensical. “Based on what you said …” After organizing his thoughts, Zelit asked, “Are you insinuating that the mutations were artificially fostered rather than a natural occurrence?”
Someone was purposefully bringing about these mutations, and there was a power overseeing the cursed ones and the broken ones respectively.
