Chapter 749 Fabian can't come
According to Tilly, there was a hierarchy in every race. Vampires, for instance, had a blood hierarchy. Starting from the bottom were Abnormals, turned, the complicated half-bloods, lower nobles, nobles, purebloods, and then the king. But not many knew... or rather, only those on the mainland were aware of the level above the King: the Grimsbanne. If they based it on the blood hierarchy, it was the same for the holders of light. The Divine Order was a branch of it. Their existence was obvious, and that was to stand on equal ground against the pureblooded vampires.
The Divine Order was created by none other than Soran; the man who has washed ashore at the vampire's breeding ground and captured the heart of the Grimsbannes. He was the man who used to rule the Heart's Kingdom before meeting his unfortunate end. The only remnants this man left were the existence of the Divine Order as if he had known all along vampires would plague his land. Hence, the Divine Order doesn't receive direct orders from its current ruler, Stefan.
Their sole purpose was to stop the vampire who was ruling the Heart's Kingdom if the vampires massacred humans unjustly. No more, no less. It was simple and yet a little complicated from another person's point of view, but Soran was strange, just as Tilly claimed. With all that laid on the table, how did Soran create the weapons of the members of the Divine Order?
As mentioned, in the blood hierarchy, the members of the Divine Order were akin to pureblooded vampires. In other words, Soran was one of the chosen holders of light whose caliber was equal to the King of Vampires or the Grimsbannes. "Vampires aren't chosen as they were born with the gift of their blood," Tilly continued her explanation, breaking her record for speaking as she explained the setting of the world. "But the holders of light were chosen. I am not sure how they were chosen, but the criteria never require a person's blood or history."
"That's tricky. You mean it's random?" Klaus concluded.
Tilly nodded. "It may or may not be the case. However, what we do know is that there were those holders of light that were as strong as the Grimsbanne. We are not yet sure how strong they were, or if they knew about their gifts."
"What I'm saying is that Peliperiru might be one, and she didn't know about it. Hence, Claude's ability didn't work on her since she's protected by the holy light." Tilly set her eyes back to Claude, only to hear Fabian's correction.
"Me?"
"Well, now that I think about it, I heard you retained your memories despite the regression," Klaus mumbled and his eyes lit up as if he cracked a riddle he wasn't able to answer all this time.
"It affected me," argued Rufus firmly. "Because if I wasn't, how come I had slept in the emperor's chambers only to wake up in Grimsbanne?"
"We can conclude that every holder of light can have different reactions in every ability. Since we do not know what secret Penny could have, we can't tell exactly. But what we know is that Claude's ability didn't affect her, but it somehow affected Rufus. Although we can also assume that was despite that, he was able to keep his memories." Samael explained, giving out the most rational explanation for this phenomenon. He then cast Lilou a look.
"As for the Divine Order, it was understandable, since they were like the purebloods. However, it seemed the effects on them were much more fragile. Therefore, Lilou managed to retrieve her memories with Lakresha's help." "Then we have more reason to seek the members of the Divine Order," Lilou asserted. "We are against vampires..."
"Madam, it is presumptuous to assume we are simply against vampires," Fabian argued with a raised finger. "If the mainland had fallen, it wasn't surprising if one or two holders of light are involved in it. But I still agree that we will need the bearers of the Divine Weapons."
"Then we will stick to the plan?" Klaus knocked his knuckles against the table. "Stefan and I will return to the Heart's Kingdom. He will be the bait and the villain. I'll play the hero. Once we succeeded, we'll seek that mad woman from the Le Blac to add some spark of madness. Meanwhile, the rest of you will chop that Zero's head."
Klaus clapped, making things sound easier. Looking at their faces, Stefan kept his lips in a tight slash. However, just as Samael's lips parted to conclude today's gathering, Tilly spoke once more. "I want to suggest something," said Tilly, catching everyone's attention, only to see her fixed her eyes on Fabian. "Fabian... can't come."
