"The other problem is they know your face now, Viktor," Taya said with a worried look since Viktor was in his human form when he confronted Dark Phoenix. He was unable to use his Phantasm Eyes to make his face a forgettable one.
Viktor sighed as he said, "We will think about how to handle it. Till then, I can just put on some specs, and everything will be fine," Viktor wasn't too worried since he was a master at disguises.
Umilia nodded as she calmly said, "Yes. We will anyway have to deal with them considering how worse things have gotten compared to our expectations."
Chief Tamo let out a disappointed, angry snort as he looked at his son's followers, "None of this would have happened if it were not for my foolish son and these ingrates who have no love for their own family!"
The five among Yavet's group who had survived immediately fell down on their knees as they cried, "Please, forgive our grave sins, Chief! We had no idea the outsiders would betray our Keeper like that. We followed your son in hopes of a bright future, but we never meant any malicious intent."
"Enough of your excuses!" Chief Tamo roared as he added, "You all are not little children who can't differentiate between right and wrong. You all well knew what the consequences would be and still went along with it. And that's why you all do not deserve to be our family anymore. Henceforth, all of you will be crippled and banished from our sacred land! None of you are worthy of drawing the power of the Void anymore."
"Chief! Please have mercy upon us!" The five of them cried out, their faces filled with despair and fear. If they get crippled, they will no longer be able to use their Void Force, and by getting banished, they wouldn't belong anywhere. How were they going to survive?
Viktor was a bit surprised to see the gentle and friendly being so ruthless, but he knew it made sense that he was so angry. He could have died along with his people if not for what happened. Even then, he must be feeling the pain and anger of losing his son.
"Mercy? You all wanted to go outside, right? Then consider this as mercy as I am letting you all leave without burying you all for betraying the teachings of the Ancient One," Chief Tamo's cold rebuke silenced all five as they fell into a devastated state.
"Take them away before I change my mind," Chief Tamo ordered some of his people as they immediately dragged away the five with angry looks. They also felt that these five deserved it after making their people suffer.
Aelita had a heavy look as she saw them getting dragged away. She knew they probably got enticed by her brother's words, but in the end, it didn't change the fact that these five never shared any true sentiments towards their own land or people.
Chief Tamo's expression relaxed as soon as they left, and he looked at Viktor with a warm smile, "Now that we have taken care of that, shall we leave? We are fortunate that the Nameless Knight wasn't angry that we disrespected his temple. It was said this was the place where he usually spent his time, comprehending the secrets of the Void."
"Oh…" Viktor nodded with an inscrutable expression as they all left the temple.

Soon enough, Chief Tamo's people dispersed to deal with the damages caused in their land, especially cleaning up the temple.
Taya asked Chief Tamo and the others to follow her, saying she had something to show, which Viktor discovered.
Viktor knew this was about the mysterious golden egg he had discovered and handed over to Taya for safekeeping. She must have hidden it away when Dark Phoenix and his people arrived.
But he knew it was better to ask for their permission rather than just take it away. He also could learn more about what kind of egg it was from them.
Aelita was curious about what Viktor had discovered, and only when Taya took out a large golden egg from her backpack carefully her eyes widened in shock, "It can't be…"
Chief Tamo seemed even more stunned as his hands trembled while pointing at it, "D-Did you get this from the Phoenix Cave?"
"Phoenix Cave? You mean the one where we went first? Yeah…I simply placed my hand on the wall, and this egg just came out of thin air," Viktor said with a shrug but got even more interested when Chief Tamo mentioned the word, 'Phoenix'.
"This day may not be an unfortunate one...but the day where our prayers are finally answered…Everything is coming together…" Chief Tamo mumbled with a glazed expression as he deeply bowed before the egg along with Aelita.
Viktor became even more confused hearing his words and couldn't help but ask Aelita, "Was this egg laid by a phoenix?" Viktor asked since he remembered the golden flames when this egg manifested in his hand.
Aelita came back to her senses as she nodded readily, "We never had any proof it was real, but it was said that the Nameless Knight's pet had laid a golden egg right before they left. The pet was none other than the Golden Phoenix carrying the divine bloodline of the Golden Phoenix God," As Aelita said this, the more she couldn't help but feel a fluttering in her belly as she stood near him.
"But why did it simply leave the egg here?" Viktor asked, feeling confused.
Chief Tamo raised his head as he answered with a subtle smile, "Because according to the prophecy, the golden egg will hatch around the time when this world needs it the most. So your presence here and this sacred egg falling into your hands can only mean one thing…Our world is going to face a calamity, and you are the key to stopping it."
