Chiron's Stand had totally taken them by surprise.
From the blood flowing by the side of his mouth, it was clear that the pressure from the prince was beating down on him hard.
However, he preferred enjoying the torture of standing and suffering internal Damages than bow.
What was worse, was the fact that his servants where of similar agreement.
And they had done this on impulse. without even thinking about it for even a second.
Almost like the instinctive reaction a mother has when her child is in trouble.
The moment the Bronze rank pressure was let loose on them, they had locked their knees by stabbing them with knifes.
Nora on the other hand, had easily fell to her knees.
"VICTOR!" The King called out as he turned in anger, "how dare you!?"
Immediately, Victor hid his Spiritual pressure.
The moment the Pressure lifted, Chiron staggered a bit and was about to fall.
The king immediately caught him.
It was at this moment that he noticed some vital things.
Firstly, Chiron's cultivation level shocked him. The reason was mainly because of Chiron's age.
He was only about Eleven years of age and he was already at the second stage of the copper realm.
But that was not all.
A man of such Calibre had incredible senses. Besides, the king's cultivation level was also not something to frown at.
He could also sense that there were two different energies dancing around in Chiron's body.
"Double...DOUBLE CULTIVATION!?"
The moment those words went out, all the Elders had either their eyes wide open in surprise or exclamated.
Soon, whispering conversations could be heard.
commander Hardstone on the side was the only one that did not show any reaction to this. After all, he was already aware.
Double cultivators were as rare and hard to find as diamond in a sea of crystals.
There were many different energies in this world. And a person with access to sufficient knowledge, can dabble in any one of them for power.
Except of course some with exclusive requirements like Elemental Energy that required one to first have Elven blood.
However, that did not mean that one could have more than one energy.
The reason for this, is because of the way energies flow, mix and compliment or even fight with one another.
However, even though one had access to energies that complimented one another, it did not mean that one could not could still cultivate both.
A conflict of both energies in the body was bond to happen.
Energies vibrate in their own individual paths, but still require fundamental control to execute.
They had been times in the past where someone forced two energies on one body and a lack of control made them explode to dust.
There was also the issue of mixing the different individual energies to form techniques.
This was another path that allowed for the potential of a Boom.
However, Chiron had things happen to him differently.
Although being A Tamashi was curse, it actually blessed him.
Firstly, his body was made from birth to carry tremendous spiritual energy. However it was sealed.
And then his hunger for power made him acquire Aura.
With the Spiritual energy suppressed, he trained and used only Aura which gave him a proper feel and control of the energy for the longest of time.
And then when he had unlocked his Spiritual energy, it had been guided by the connecting bond he had with a Dragon with Royal blood.
Since Chiron's body was practically made to accommodate the large Spiritual energy of the Dragon in the first place, the Spiritual energy was guided through the right paths in the body.
In truth, this might as well have been luck. But everything had fallen in place rightly.
It was rare to find those with Double cultivation.
There was also the problem of simultaneously improving in ranks.
of course, this meat that one had to cultivate twice as hard and tenacious as even the most hard working cultivators.
After all, it took years for one to increase in rank and the high one's cultivation was, the harder it was to improve.
It was easy to imagine that those with Double cultivation had it far worse.
However, Chiron was just about Eleven years old and he was already in the copper Realm.
This was incredible Talent.
He was a Double Cultivator and both energies were of the Copper rank.
The King could not help but believe that he had just come across something unnatural.
He had just found a rare treasure. A treasure that could usher in the prosperity of a greater future for his people.
Just then, he suddenly frowned. All the over whelming joy he felt suddenly washed away.
Every body had seen the broad smile on the king's face when he discovered that Chiron was a Double cultivator. However his sudden change in mood took them by surprise.
And then just for confirmation, he pulled down Chiron's robe.
And they it was for all to see. He was Armless.
"Commander Hardstone!" The king turned to the commander.
"Forgive me, my King. They was an encounter with the Holy Church. we only barely made it in time to save both the prince and princess."
Hearing the word Princess immediately made the king to look in Nora's direction.
. Naturally, the young lady preferred hiding behind her brother.
However, the king still stretched his hand and placed it on her head.
one look at her and he could see his daughter's face in her own.
However, his Spiritual energy went through her body and he frowned once more.
"Young one, your S-rank Dantain was stolen?"
Nora nodded slowly.
Another surprise that took the Elders by surprise.
However, no body noticed that Prince Victor on the side had a slight smile on his face.
Chiron and Nora's arrival was not one that he wished for.
After all, His Elder sister Nora was heir to the throne. This meant that after her, her own children would be heir to the throne.
This essentially meant that Chiron was currently heir to the throne and after him, was Nora.
Victor was only heir after Nora.
However, could a cripple sit on the throne?
The king suddenly turned and walked away, "show them to their rooms!" he ordered as he walked away.
Immediately Victor followed his father. meanwhile, Chiron was made to stand as the judging gaze of the Elders was fixed on his torso.
They all whispered without hiding it and few of them sneered and walked away in disgust after their king.
Nora picked the Robe from the floor and draped it over Chiron's shoulders.
Surely, this was going to start up a rumor in the palace and probably the whole kingdom.
Without a doubt, it would.
A maid stepped forward and gave a bow at Chiron and Nora before leading the way.
Chiron had a bright smile on his face as he followed along.
Carla and Emma had Demon blood. after removing the daggers from their knees, they easily healed from such an Injury that would have crippled other normal people.
They followed along with him.
As they left, the Elders whispered to one another.
However, commander Hardstone stood and watched the sibling pair walk into the grand Palace.
Someone suddenly came up behind him. It was a bald man, "Commander Hardstone, it seems there was no need for your Errand of many months after all. Prince Victor will still inherit the the throne."
Commander Hardstone turned to the Bald man, "I'm just a soldier and do not know how politics works. So I'll say this as a soldier. I have seen a bit of what Prince Chiron can do. Even without arms, I'll still advice the world to not obstruct his path."
Commander Hardstone turned and went back to his Tesseract.
Those words made this particular Elder Frown tightly.
He stroked his smooth chin like he was searching for a strand of beard he knew that he didn't have.
"Interesting! a praise from the one commander known to be as hard headed as his name." the bald man commented.
Meanwhile, the king had gone straight to the throne room.
He sat on his and bowed his face in his arms.
He muttered lowly to himself like a mad man, "I'm sorry Nora. I was wrong to you, and now I have let even my own grand children suffer like this."
"Father!" Victor called to him the moment he entered the throne room.
"I think there is a problem somewhere. it... it," Victor choose his next words well, "It must be Hardstone. He must have gotten the wrong person. I can... I can order for his immediate Arrest. I can..."
"Shut up! YOU WILL DO NO SUCH THING," the king frowned, "Especially not to a commander directly under my fleet."
Victor saw his father was angry and made the wise choice to shut up.
Soon, the Elders entered the room. one of them stepped forward to mediate between the father and son pair.
"Your majesty, I think what Prince Victor is trying to say is, how are we sure this boy and girl are even children of your daughter? For all we know, Commander Hardstone might have picked them up on his way back. After all, they have not even passed the test of the Elder Shaman's temple. For a we know, they might be..."
"NORA'S children!" an aged edgey voice was heard. Everyone immediately turned to the sound of the voice respectfully.
After all, the existence of this particular person was as important as the king himself.
She was highly regarded. so regarded that a word from her lips could spell the end for anyone here. This was including the prince.
With her walking stick that echoed across the walls of the throne room, she stepped forward.
"There is no need for a confirmation ritual. The moment that Tesseract touched the Palace, I sensed Nora's presence. Those two are definitely heirs to that throne," she pointed with her walking stick to the high golden chair that the King sat on.
He placed forward a bit more. "King Richard the third. You know what to do. The spirits have brought the heir to the throne home. Even if he is without legs and hands."
She hit her walking cane on the ground, "Chiron is the next King!"
As she did, no one noticed the dreaded look in prince Victor's eyes.
