The Conquerors Path Chapter 729 Chapter 728-Why I Was Late

729 Chapter 728-Why I Was Late.

I didn't move from my position for so ti. I just took it all in, the normal life going on all around , feeling my difference from them. It's sothing I had promised myself in the past, to stop occasionally and look around so that I don't forget that there is a life outside filled with normality, a beautiful life.

'Sigh... I feel a bit better now.'

I thought as I quickly brought back everything that I had kept down, the feelings I had still there but not as humongous as before. Because when I get back into Trisha's house, it will just be another match that I have to begin. My plan will start, and I will then have to take the weight of dealing with the variables that will be thrown my way.

'I need to take a good old vacation one of these days.'

With that thought, with every one of my powers renewed and my actions set, I moved forth. I had spawned myself within the elven area, the one specially belonging to the teachers, as I walked up to the gate blocking off the area towards the more special teacher's area where Trisha lives. My appearance led to be blocked, which I quickly got through, showing my identity.

Just a flash of my true image to them and showing my true identity was more than enough for them to let through. With quick yet controlled steps, I moved through the beautiful forest-like area, which last ti turned into the beasts' et due to the very life essence I give out.

This ti, though, I toned down my entire presence as I walked through the forest-like area, soon reaching the place where Trisha stays. My disguise ca undone as the workers soon let in, seeing that it was . Quickly moving into the house, I was t with the head maid as before, as she, with a calm voice, spoke.

"Lady Trisha has told to guide you to the training room since it seems you are here for a class."

I nodded my head at those words, to which the head maid started to lead the way. Soon, I reached a room after which the head maid opened the room for , and I entered, the door closing behind as she did so. Though the mont stillness ca to the room, a figure leaped onto , clutching tightly as she scread.

"Please, don't let go!"

Vows of despair, pain, and sadness were linked to that voice of hers as Trisha held tightly, the great elven teacher clutching , rubbing her chest against as I felt the damp tears filling my chest. To this, with confusion, I held her back, my hands holding her tenderly, patting her back as I asked with a confused voice.

"What happened? Did sothing bad happen when I was gone?"

To my words, Trisha hugged tighter, her arms wrapping around as she just held tightly, her tears staining my chest even more. After which, she slowly raised her head to et my eyes, her situation not looking good at all as her eyes had turned extrely red, dark circles floated under her eyes, her body even felt weak, and her face looked pale and deadly.

Seeing this, I reacted instantly, catching her face between my hands as she still held with her hands, my face full of care for her as I asked.

"Trisha, what happened?"

My words made her tears even wider while I felt the madness in her, her mind being fully unstable, with her powers seemingly going a bit haywire. Everything around her scread about the fact that she was ntally shaken and extrely at that as she just kept crying as I held her head, to which a green glow filled my hands, covering over her face, giving her a brief sense of ntal stability as the tears stopped for a mont.

"Trisha, are you okay?"

I asked her again, to which, with a confused look, Trisha looked at , her arms around getting tighter as she, looking at as if I was so sort of ghost, asked.

"Austin, my holy son, is that you?"

To which I, still holding her face, nodded my head as I spoke.

"It's ."

My reply made her cry again as her tears started to fall through my hands, the situation only seemingly getting even weirder as I moved forth, taking Trisha in a princess carry as I walked towards one of the seats. Taking a seat as I placed Trisha in my lap, her face matching towards , her body being hugged by tight as the two of us just sat there in silence, enjoying each other's presence.

"I know…"

Suddenly, Trisha whispered into my embrace, her words making surprised as I looked at her.

"What do you know?"

My question seemingly made her feel even more pain as Trisha replied, "I know the pains you have been through," her sudden words made my eyes widen as my hold on her got tighter as I asked.

"How do you know?"

My words were linked with a certain weakness, which quickly made Trisha look at , her eyes sparkling with a certain powerful gaze as she leaned in to place her forehead against mine, our eyes eting each other as Trisha spoke.

"I just do."

And the mont she spoke of this, a great green light erupted from within Trisha's body, her whole body seemingly twirling with the beauty of that green light as she hugged tighter, the light twisting and a part of it breaking away from her as it soon swirled into , joining her life force with and with it eternally making her life in my hands.

And she didn't end it with that, a certain green and silver mixed light now floating around her body as its maximum essence focused on her head, its powers soon drizzling forth as it combined with mine, thus giving full command of her mind and her own self, using a lost and forbidden part of elven knowledge to bind herself fully to , both in mind, body, and soul.

The whole process was finished within a few seconds as I, shocked, feeling the power within , spoke to Trisha.

"You…"

This is all that had left my mouth, my surprised action making Trisha smile a bit, the first one I have seen her do as she, feeling weak, leaned deeper into my body as she spoke.

"Now I am truly all yours, master~"

She whispered out, her eyes seemingly losing focus, her mind being broken and twisted and twisted again, the process of what she did removing away a part of what existed as Trisha and replacing it with the full loyalty and presence of a beautiful woman that only existed to serve .

From now onwards, there is no good or bad for her; there is nothing that she wouldn't do for . To her, what I say is right; to her mind, what I whisper is the truth. The base essence of what existed as Trisha still lies, but it's been fully twisted to have only a single focus of living for . To her, I am her master, and in her way, a god she lives for.

"What did you do?"

I asked with great apprehension filling my mind, at least I looked like it as the last embers of Trisha, the one that existed a mont ago, spoke before it was fully extinguished.

"I gave you a person that will never leave you…"

With that, Trisha slowly erged into her sleep, where the true character was removed, and one that only served now slumbered. I sat there in my seat, hugging Trisha's body, feeling it rest comfortably on as I started to pat her back, my eyes focusing a bit on her beautiful face now filled with a contented smile, after which I turned to look at the ceiling.

'Where would I wash away all these sins?'

I asked myself with a bitter smile, the other reason I wanted to take so more ti before I returned back to this place was due to the very fact that I knew perhaps this would happen. Maybe in the depths of my heart, I just wanted to give so more ti for Trisha to live like herself before she would willingly erase many to be the one I would need.

Back when I spoke to her mind as the divine Goddess of Life, I had also gone an extra step to place a small forbidden spell into her mind, which would only be activated by the user. It was easy to place this deep in her mind when I had the power of the Goddess of Life flowing through , a ritual so dark that even I felt hesitant to use it at first.

But in this case, I had no choice. While she is loyal to and to the Church of Life, she isn't a traitor. Moreover, she is an inherently loving person that cares deeply for her family, which would an when the ti cos I have to use her against her brother, things wouldn't have worked as I wished.
