Chapter 1033: Respect the Past, Embrace the Future

The atmosphere of the Conclave of Heroes was now filled with palpitating hearts and anticipation as the supposed Prey of the Empires was now confidently standing before them without a shred of fear in his eyes.

Kahn intentionally hinted that he faked his death 'during the trial' and not after the trial was passed by one of the heroes.

That way… no one would suspect Atreus, the one who died after the ambush by the Hero of Time after Maximus, the Hero of Nature, passed the trial and also witnessed his demise at the hands of the Hero of Time.

And given the number of survivors who were less than half the original numbers before all the Heroes and Heroines entered Babylon… no empire had a chance to know which one of their party members was actually the Hero of Darkness or how he faked his identity to enter Babylon right under their nose.
