Chapter 784 Will And Desire 3
?The events of that time played in his head. He still remembered it. As fresh as a cut on his skin. This was a wound that had never closed up, and now, the sight of Allison brought it up.
It all started many many years ago, when he and Allison had arrived at Imperilment.
Back then, they and many other Werewolves and innocent civilians had been thrust into a world governed by pain and blood.
Unfortunately, for all his strength, Victor had been pulled into this new world while sleeping.
He had been sleeping when he was thrust into this new world that only saw humans as food.
This was because of the powder that the elders had used on him. The intention behind it was a good one, but it resulted in the loss of many lives.
In fact, Victor would have been a part of those who would have lost their lives too if he had not been saved by Ulric and Gadu.
It just so turned out that Ulric, Gadu and the last soldier Werewolf had unfortunately found themselves in Imperilment.
This was the story they told. That a vile person had imprisoned them here when they went to the outside world to train.
it was not until many years later that Victor realized that it had been Lenny that had imprisoned and tortured them in this place for their attempt on his life.
Nevertheless, they had lived in peace and harmony. At least for a while.
In total of the more than nine thousand people that had come into Imperilment that day, only about six hundred had managed to survive to see the next day, and that number even fell as the months went by.
This was a terrible thing.
In Imperilment, everything fed on every other thing. To make matters worse, not every delicious was food, as some could be poison meant to kill a person for them to be used for digestion.
And in many cases, those that did not look like fruits were actually the most edible of substances.
At such a time as this, Ulric and his assistant Gadu, members of the Ironback Werewolf tribe.
A tribe of Werewolves that had been under the reign and rule of Mr. Augustus, the demon under the Abaddon Royal family.
At first, Victor did not trust them one bit even though they had saved his life.
However, in Imperilment, having Allies that could watch one's back was practically a gift from the heavens.
And in time, Ulric had become very close to him. Besides, the fact that he had been in this place longer meant that he had much knowledge to share.
He provided guidance, and in no time, he won Victor's affection.
For more than ten years, they lived in peace, and finally managed to create a thriving community with the survivors that remained.
Many secrets to surviving imperilment were discovered, and when the beasts of the land were migrating, they would also move.
This ensured that they stayed in conditions and environments that placed emphasis on their security and growth.
Things had become relatively peaceful.
Relatively, because Victor's condition was becoming worse by the day, and even the bronze armor that helped to keep his power at bay was starting to chirp away.
There were even whispers among his people that he would blow up and destroy their new home.
Truth be told, no one wanted such a leader.
And it was at such a time that Ulric showed his true colors.
He displayed an ambition that had obviously been well thought of, and planned meticulously over the years.
Victor found out painfully that Ulric's goal from the very start had never been to live in peace and harmony. But rather, his goal was to take Victor's position as Alpha, and take Allison as his wife...
