Chapter 1182: Prestige And Conspiracy?

Memories of the body he had inhabited poured into his mind, causing him to become overwhelmed at the notion. After all, it wasn't just the memories that poured into him. They also included the emotions the character felt, the feelings he had harbored, as well as the pain he suffered. 

Everything surfaced instantly, almost tearing apart Krune's mind. A person's lifetime worth of experience had emerged instantly. So, even for him, it was unbearable. 

'So… that's what… happened.' Krune gradually regained control over himself, thinking weakly. The voice was the trigger that brought out his memories. 

After all, it was the voice of his daughter. However, he dared not even think of her. 

Betrayal! Abuse! Scorn!

His current identity was of a beggar. Though, he had once been someone important from the Su Family. In fact, he was the younger brother of the Su Family Head. 

Seven years ago, the previous family head passed away while fighting a Nightmare. A Nightmare was a spiritual entity that was created from the negative emotions of the people. A Nightmare would form after a long period of condensation. 

Each Nightmare was a terrifying entity capable of destroying an entire village overnight. Physical attacks were useless against them. And the only ones who were capable of fighting against them were the Imperial Meisters.

An Imperial Meister was a wielder of Imperial Arms, a mystical weapon forged using the cores of more than a dozen Nightmares. This was the sole weapon capable of wounding a nightmare. 

Then again, only if the Imperial Arms chose the wielder could he become an Imperial Meister. And this was difficult. There were three conditions one must achieve to bond with an Imperial Arms.

First was the fact that they had to be blood-related to the Imperial Arms. After all, forming the hilt of the Imperial Arms were the bones of the creator that had been refined over countless years. 

So, only those related to the creator by blood had a chance to bond with it. 

The second condition was for them to possess a sharp mind, one greatly resistant to the attacks of the Nightmares. 

The third and final condition was for them to possess a righteous mind. 

Only when one satisfied all three conditions would they become eligible to bond with an Imperial Arms. 

Krune's current character was once such an individual, an Imperial Meister. 

An Imperial Master wielded immense authority and prestige. After all, they were too few in numbers. Just the creation of an Imperial Arms was a monumental task that only the wealthiest of families could afford to do so. 

And, the greater the number of Imperial Arms a family possessed, the stronger they were. 

The Su Family was one of the four great noble families of the Daxia Empire. It was because they possessed four Imperial Arms. On top of that, all of them could be wielded. With four Imperial Meisters, they garnered tremendous influence.

When the previous family head died while fighting a Nightmare, the family shook. After all, there was now a vacancy in the seat of the family head. The remaining three Imperial Meisters of the Su Family immediately fought for the seat of the clan head. 

And among them, he—Krune's character—was in the lead, close to becoming the clan head. But all of a sudden, his Imperial Arms betrayed him. 

Or rather, it was no longer bonded to him. All of a sudden, his daughter, Su Daiyu gained control over it, rendering him powerless. 

It was because she accused him of being a traitor and crippled him, turning him into a waste. After that, his oldest brother took on the position as the clan head as the internal struggles in the Su Family stabilized. 

Everyone praised Su Daiyu for being righteous and culling the internal struggles of their family to focus on their external threats—the Nightmares. 

However, the strange thing was the fact that he, Su Zixin, had never treated her harshly. He was just strict with her, but the same applied to the rest of his children as well. On top of that, it was necessary, given his position. 

Moreover, during the contest to become the clan head, he had gathered the most support. Everything didn't make sense once Krune thought about it. After all, Su Daiyu hadn't ever expressed a desire for power.

But on that day, she gained control over his Imperial Arms, crippled him, pressed countless charges against him, and struck him off the family records.

After that, he became a beggar, beaten up by everyone that passed by the Su Family Mansion daily.

It was due to the charges he was pressed against. There were three such charges in total.

The first was the fact that he was accumulating Nightmare Cores illegally. Illegal in the sense that he was wantonly causing suffering in some of the villages under his control to eventually generate a Nightmare from there. And after defeating them, he was planning to use their Cores to create another Imperial Arms to further boost his strength. 

The Daxia Empire had forbidden any artificial means of creating Nightmares. 

The second charge was of him using a demonic technique to forcibly wield his Imperial Arms—the Moon Flower. This technique allowed him to use the Imperial Arms even though it hadn't accepted him as its owner. Using it through this technique damaged it little by little every time. 

When Su Zixin obtained the Imperial Arms from his hands, it was proved that he was using a demonic technique to forcibly wield it. 

The final charge was of him making moves on his daughter to bed her. He had attempted it countless times but had failed due to coincidences. There was proof related to that.

Once everything came to light, he was castrated before being crippled and thrashed around daily, placed at the side of the Su Family Mansion's entrance to serve as an example for everyone that anyone that didn't abide by righteousness would face such a fate, irrespective of the power they wielded previously. 

"Why is this trash still polluting our prestigious locality?"

Upon hearing the viciousness in the tone of Su Daiyu, it was apparent to Krune. Though, he couldn't understand one thing.

'Why is there no recollection of such events in my memory? I hadn't done anything of that sort.'
