Chapter 469: Is he even a human?
When the whole ritual was finished, all the people present there began to scream loudly in excitement while chanting some strange words, and then the bowl containing the blood and the tray containing the brain and heart were picked up again by the same woman.
After taking them she stepped back slowly without raising her head and just like that she walks out of the temple, then she walked to the centre of the big vicinity of the cave.
In one of her hand, she was holding the bowl filled with the blood and in the other hand, she had a plate that contained the small pieces of the brain and the heart.
While hitting the sides of her lips with her tongue she gave a loud shout, that rang across the entire cave, as more than three hundred men and women walked out of the small rooms and began to walk towards the woman.
As they arrived in front of her, they all bowed into their foreheads were touching the ground and stayed in the position, only after the woman told them to raise their heads did they finally sit up on their knees.
Then the woman walked up to each person and gave everyone a piece of the brain, and made a mark on the foreheads of all of them with the blood.
All the people present their gulped down the piece of brain and then began to pray, after a few minutes of praying they all stood up and began to chat amongst each other as if it was a daily occurrence while the woman walked back to the temple.
After some time, more than half of the people returned to their work while some of them remained there and chatted about different things.
Just like that days passed, occasionally a man would enter the room Jayden was in and take a corpse along with him, they would perform the similar ritual and give tribute to their God.
Even after five days, Jayden couldn’t wake up and anyone who saw him would think of him as a corpse, both he and Eve were in a strange state, the effects that golden seed would have on them were still unknown.
After a few more days, when a man again entered the storage room, he walked near Jayden after checking his body condition he picked up his body and walked out of the room, just like before he brought Jayden to the temple and placed his body on a high platform in front of the statue, then he stepped back and sat there.
All the people in the temple bowed and then two men walked towards Jayden while holding big knives in their hands, they stood on either side of him and then began to cut his limbs.
When the blade came in contact with his skin it just slipped over it and wasn’t even able to leave a tiny scratch, the surprised gasps of both of the men sounded as they looked back at each other, they tried several times to cut his skin but failed each time.
Then they just stood there awkwardly not knowing how to proceed, the woman who always takes the bowl and plate out, stood up and walked up to them and asked: ” What’s wrong? ”
The language they were using was completely different from that of the humans.
” We can’t cut even his skin, no matter how much strength we put into it. ” One of the two men replied, with a helpless expression, while the second man nodded in agreement.
” Huh? How could this be, have you checked properly that he is dead? ” She asked, both the men checked his breathing and pulses and then responded:
” Yes, he isn’t breathing and there is no pulse, he is definitely dead, maybe he has a strong body so what should we do? ” Asked the man after properly checking.
” Hmm, then call a warrior here and ask them to cut his body, I’m sure they would be able to do this.
Haa this is the first time in my life that we came across such a strange human, but I think his flesh and organs will be better than others. ” She commanded and then muttered to herself.
One of the men walked out of the temple and went to call the members of the hunting party, usually, they are out to hunt but since they had returned not too long ago with enough meat and sacrifices, they were all still inside the cave.
After a few minutes passed, over four people walked behind the man who went to call them, although he just needed the help of a single warrior but after hearing about the strange incident they all showed interest and decided to see it themselves.
” Where is it? ” The leader asked after entering, and then he walked towards the high platform along with the three other members of his group.
” It was this human corpse I had told you about, we weren’t able to leave even a scratch on his skin. ”
When the men said this, the four members of the hunting group looked at him with doubtful gazes as if they weren’t believing a word he had just said.
” Do it again. ”
The leader said and stared fixedly at Jayden’s body. Picking up the knife, the man again tried to cut Jayden’s hand but yet again he wasn’t even able to leave a single scratch.
” See, I told you no matter how much force we used, we can’t even make a tiny cut. ‘ he then looked at the leader and spoke while pointing a finger at Jayden’s hand.
” Hoh, Aside from those demons I have never seen anyone with such defence, is he even a human? Even those demon’s skin becomes a little softer after their deaths, I’m sure we can do the job. ”
He mumbled, and then he looked at one of the members of his team and ordered: ” You, cut his arm and do it slowly, I want to see just what secrets his body is hiding. ”
Nodding her head, a woman stepped forward and took the knife even though there was a blade on her back, then she placed the knife over Jayden’s arm and began to apply some force to slowly cut his skin.
“…”
Nothing happened, but without losing focus she applied more force, yet the result was the same, with each failure she would increase the strength in her arm but even after a few minutes passed, and beads of sweat began to appear on her forehead, in the end she wasn’t able to cut his skin.
” Huff huff I will use my blade this time. ”
Saying that she removed the long blade from her back and placed it over Jayden’s arm, then she began to slide it back and forth, but even after a few minutes had passed, nothing changed then she brought her blade near his fingers and applied as much strength as she could muster but the result again was same.
” Pfft- ”
The man from the temple almost laughed, but tightly shutting his mouth he stopped himself and maintained a serious face.
