Chapter 167 A Gathering Of Future Heroes And One Villain 2

For this moment to work according to plan, Chiron had Emma add a little spice in the air that ensured that Nora's resistance was reduced to nearly none.

When sensual tension was heightened, resistance was nearly destroyed.

Chiron knew how it worked in the head.

This way, the idea that they were siblings would not be the limiter on her mind.

However, the spell Emma had cast was not to totally take control of her mind but to make sure that she fell to his will.

Even if Nora was going to regret it afterwards, she would have already done it the first time. And that was all it took for her not to stop.

However, that loud shout from outside suddenly destroyed the mood.

"NORA CHIVALRY OF THE CHIKITSA CLAN!!! I, THE SIXTH DAUGHTER OF CHIEF SANCCA. WILLOW WILLIAM OF THE SABER CLAN CHALLENGE YOU TO A DUEL!"

Chiron frowned.

Nora on the other hand had been snapped awake by the shout. She hurried to her feet in confusion as to what she and her big brother were just doing. Shame took over her and she hurried to put on her clothes.

She could not even have herself face him because of her embarrassment and she immediately hurried outside.

Chiron sighed as he held back the annoyance that crept in. Someone had just disturbed his cultivation time.

This was like taking a bone from a hungry dog. It always never ended well.

Chiron dressed up and wanted to see the source of the commotion.

"Carla!" he called lowly.

She immediately appeared on one knee. When she came was when he was dressing up. She did not know what happened when she left, but she doubted she even wanted to know.

"What is going on?" He asked.

"It's the preliminary fights before the Gathering of the sword clan's main competition. Apparently, it has been happening for a few days now."

"Hmmm!" Chiron nodded.

"They seem to be a few outside that wishes to challenge Nora."

Chiron raised a brow at this.

In the original timeline for the story. Chiron remembered that Nora was also challenged then. However, Nora had not participated in the Gathering of the sword clans until she was about eighteen.

Which was essentially by the next time the Gathering of the sword clans occurred. Therefore, she'd refused their challenge.

They must have first gone to his father's house to search for her but did not see her. And then came here for her.

The clan was only so big. It was not hard to get information on where to find her.

However, Chiron suddenly heard a shout from a familiar voice.

"I, NORA CHIVALRY OF THE CHIKITSA CLAN ACCEPT YOUR CHALLENGE!"

Chiron's brows deepened.

This was not expected.

He had expected that she would refuse the fight. After all, she had done so in the initial Timeline.

The truth about the matter was that his influence in this timeline had long ago already gotten to her.

Seeing how hard he trained and cultivated daily, had made her think she was not working hard enough.

Even though she was practically the Clan's sweetheart and was showered with love and cultivation materials, her big brother that did not have any cultivation was the person that had stuck up for her with his life on the line for her life to be saved.

For a long time, that hammered at her consciousness. She felt as if she was never good enough.

No matter how hard she tried, he was just always ahead even though he was practically the weakest. This changed her mentality from the thought process it would have normally gone.

After all, in the original timeline, she did not have such pressure on her mind to become stronger. The Chiron in the original Timeline was a weak stay at home disappointment.

But this time around, his growth was the catalyst that sped up her mental maturity.

This was something Chiron was not aware of.

He quickly wore his clothes and headed outside.

What welcomed him, was the Clattering of swords.

Surprisingly, Nora was not the person engaged in battle. It was Willow and someone else.

Willow had Challenged Nora, but just as Nora had accepted, someone else had butted in.

He claimed that he had come here first, and should have the right to challenge Nora first.

And he did. However, Willow was a stubborn one and had thrown out the Challenge first.

The person that had just arrived was named Rattle. He was of the Rapier Clan and was the son of Chief Killian.

Both Willow and Rattle according to Chiron's memory of them should be about fourteen years of age. Yet, both of them were coming to challenge Nora that was far younger than them.

Then again, all that age nonsense was not necessary in the cultivation world. Age was not a determining factor for strength and ability.

Nobody cared about age in the presence of power.

Rattle was usually a very reasonable person. The only reason he was attacking Willow was that he knew that if she fought Nora before him, then Nora would no longer be in the best state to fight him.

And he wanted her in full optimum condition for a fight.

The news that Nora had S-grade Dantain had long reached the ears of these geniuses from other clans. And the only thing geniuses were truly interested in, was other geniuses.

While Willow and Rattle cross swords, a much older man appeared. However, he sat far away on a tree and enjoyed the show with some street snack he had acquired in hand.

Just as the two continued to battle in disagreement as to who would fight Nora first, a sharp dark shadow passed with incredible speed between them.

It had passed right in between their swords as it ran behind Nora and Chiron.

Willow and Rattle looked in the direction of the shadow, and both of them opened their eyes in shock.

Even the man far off on the tree was shocked by this.

After all, this was a Green skinned Shadow leopard...
