The Primal Hunter

Chapter 1017

Chapter 1017: A Proper Reintroduction What even are Records?

Tension hung thick in the air above Primordial-4 as the standoff continued, neither side making any moves as they waited for the battle between the Malefic Viper and Yip of Yore to conclude.

One side was obviously more confident than the other as if they were just waiting for Yip to clean things up and claim his rightful title of Primordial Slayer. Yip of Yore had made all the preparations possible, made himself into a being specialized in killing the Malefic Viper, and grown faster than any other god in recorded history.

If he couldn’t kill the Malefic Viper, who could? The result was inevitable to the gods supporting Yip, making them adopt a gloating demeanor in front of the gods from the Order of the Malefic Viper.

Valhal kept the same stance as before, with the only thing change being Eversmile who’d appeared beside Valdemar, something that didn’t strike anyone as weird as they were obviously both gods supporting Yip’s conquest.

As they stood there, Valdemar looked down at Eversmile with a raised eyebrow, the area around them already isolated. “What’s in this for you?”

Eversmile looked up at the War God with his eternal smile. “Whatever do you mean?”

“You know what I mean. You’re not the type to do anything out of the kindness of your heart, so why get involved in all this?” Valdemar asked, not showing his usual simple demeanor. “Even you siding with Yip wouldn’t make any sense unless he offered you something really good.”

“He did offer me something really good,” Eversmile said casually.

“And what did Vilas offer you?”

“Nothing,” Eversmile sighed. “At least nothing tangible. It’s more accurate to say that after this, we are considered even regarding certain matters.”

Valdemar frowned a bit at what he said before his eyes lit up in realization. “This was all to pay him back for what happened with that kid?”

“Oh? I’m surprised you know about that,” Eversmile said in genuine surprise.

“Had to watch some clips of Jake’s Tutorial... I guess you can say that was part of my deal,” Valdemar said with a laugh before turning a bit more serious again. “I still don’t get it... you owed him a favor, sure, but not all favors are the same. This seems like you did quite a bit more for him than he did for you. Especially seeing as how your experiment fell through. Pretty sure that boy of yours is now a heretic.”

Now it was Eversmile’s turn to chuckle. “Who says the experiment is over?”

Valdemar looked at him for a few seconds before sighing. “I still don’t get you... oh, and also, I heard you sold being on Yip’s side by saying you want Vilas dead? How did you pull that one off?”

“There is nothing to pull off when speaking the truth.”

“You actually want Yip to kill Vilas?” Valdemar asked, his emotions hard to read.

“Of course I do,” the karmic mage said without a moment’s hesitation as he kept waiting for the battle between the two gods to fully conclude and for the result to be announced to everyone... even if said result was entirely predictable.

As for wanting the Viper dead, he really was speaking the truth. Eversmile was a researcher. He researched karma and the best way for new karma to be formed was through new situations. Nothing was better than entirely original scenarios with several actors taking part. Especially high-level actors with genuine power.
