Hero of Darkness

Chapter 843: Divine Fire

The being akin to a deity that lorded this plane of existence where Kahn was suddenly thrown into revealed its true identity to be none other than the Divine Weapon, Amaterasu.

Kahn's eyes were left wide open as he was speechless and too stunned to comprehend this predicament as not even in his wildest dreams did he imagine this scenario.

"Where am I? And why did you suddenly appear?" he questioned with a cautious gaze.

The first thing Kahn needed to know was if he was in danger.

"This realm is inside the Divine Key, Flamescion.

The part which has merged with your own." revealed Amaterasu, whose entire body was made of multicolored flames and sat on a massive throne that was at least 600 meters in height alone.

The tiny ant-sized Kahn then questioned the divine weapon with a look filled with hostility.

"Why am I here in my soul form? Why did you summon me suddenly?"

To his words, the fiery being with a humanoid structure and a face with glowing red eyes replied.

"I didn't. You appeared here by yourself.

And the only way for a chosen Hero to appear in this realm is meeting the prerequisite condition to form the contract." responded the divine weapon carefreely.

"Conditions? For what?" asked Kahn with a puzzled countenance.

"Looks like you have met the 100% affinity condition for the Fire Element." he revealed with a discerning gaze as he scanned through Kahn's spectral form.

"This was why I hadn't acknowledged you as my contractor." he iterated solemnly.

"Contractor? You mean your owner?" asked Kahn.

However, Amaterasu shook its head and replied…

"There is no fixed owner for a divine weapon like me.

We only have temporary contractors, all of them are the Heroes and Heroines of the element we were created with.

For me, it has always been a Hero/Heroine of Fire."

Kahn finally understood what was going on here. Neither did he come here willingly nor did Amaterasu summon him.

Without knowing, he must have met a condition he was unaware of.

"What are the conditions you speak of?" he asked in a stern voice.

"One of the conditions to form a control between a divine weapon, which is created solely for the chosen Hero is 100% Natural Affinity with that element.

Otherwise, the heroes cannot wield us at our full power. Because our powers will end up killing them instead." explained Amaterasu.

"The Divine Key of that element has 3 main uses.

One is to grant the hero or heroine a body that has full immunity and natural affinity with the element.

The second use is that the Divine Weapon can only be bound to the Divine Key as already using us consumes a lot of Soul Essence.

If we were directly tied to the soul itself, the user would die in the matter of months.

Hence, a divine weapon can only be used by a chosen hero." he revealed truthfully.

"And the third use… like the word says, it's a 'key'." the divine weapon's voice echoed.

"A key to what? A lock, some formation or a door?" asked Kahn curiously.

Soon, Amaterasu spoke and revealed the truth.

However… for some reason, Kahn couldn't hear it and Amaterasu's mouth didn't produce any sound when he tried to speak the truth again.

"Looks like gods made sure that it can't be shared with other heroes." spoke Amaterasu after assessing the situation. <novelnext></novelnext>

He then glanced at Kahn.

"You're at least different… than your predecessor."

----------------

Amaterasu suddenly mentioned the 8th Hero of Darkness out of nowhere, raising Kahn's curiosity.

"You're not like him. Unlike him, you actually have 100% affinity to Fire." he spoke.

"You knew him?" asked Kahn with a baffled expression.

"Of course. That bastard killed my 7th contractor and forcefully commanded me along with other Divine Weapons which were not meant to be used by him.

He primarily had the Divine Keys. That was his main objective.

We divine weapons were just something that came along with them since we're actually bound to the Divine Key and not the Hero/Heroine in the first place." he explained a part of the truth of the past.

"So what did he want? Why did he kill all the heroes?" asked Kahn hurriedly.

This was one of the answers he had been looking for since long ago.

"No idea. I was under forced comatose just like others until he died.

After his death, all of us returned to the empires that store and protect us through True Dimension, to keep us protected for the next summoned hero." he revealed honestly.

"Do you know about my divine weapon?" asked Kahn.

"Him? Do you not have him?" questioned Amaterasu, a visible surprise revealing on his face.

Kahn shook his head in response.

"No wonder I didn't get that ominous and eerie feeling from you.

That guy… even with the short time I shared with him…

I couldn't see through him or even understand. It was like endless darkness that consumed everything in the world." he spoke and was lost in his own thoughts.

Kahn on the other end was processing this whole advancement and decided to make a few choices of his own.

"The current Hero of Fire is dead." he said to the divine weapon.

"I know. That was a very shameful defeat.

Please visit ren.cm.

Even worse than Fringilla, the 7th Heroine of Fire when we fought against the 8th Hero and your divine weapon.

If only that useless runt had focused more on training and becoming stronger instead of playing savior in front of others just to feel good about herself… I wouldn't have lost against your divine weapon so miserably.

This is why I hate Attention Seekers. I had 3 of such contractors already and none of them could help me reveal my full power during combat." he spoke with discontentment.

"Now, at least for this generation… You have no owner.

So what do you say? Will you acknowledge me as your contractor?" asked Kahn without any hesitation.

To his out-of-the-norm and obtuse proposition… the divine weapon replied calmly.

"Well, you have the divine key and 100% fire immunity as well as natural affinity now.

You met all 3 conditions to become my contractor, same as Axel." he declared.

But the next moment, he asked in a grim voice, showing a domineering countenance.

"But why should I?
