THE CONQUERORS PATH

Chapter 277-An Adventure



Chapter 277-An Adventure

"Sigh...that was relaxing"

I spoke as I walked through the streets of the academy, after my so-called 'date' with Hera, I went along with her and met with some important personnel, marking me as the head of the church of life, all of them wanted for me to come to the main church which is located at the heart of the Elven empire but I rejected it.

Anyhow, I would be visiting the Eleven Empire in the future, after all the elven princess is a target and the main arc for her takes place there, in the end, I gave my goodbye to a reluctant Hera, went to Ralph's home where I spent some quality time with them before which I came back to the academy.

By now it had become dark, as I traveled through the streets, today I already made a reservation with a princess, and moving through the streets that are still busy I reached the archery club as I entered the room, coming upon Carmelia who was training, the moment I entered the hall a small subtle smile came to her cold face,

"You're here? good I'm hungry"

"Why do I feel that you just see me as a means for good food?"

"Don't know what you mean"

Saying so she hummed at her bow, while I just shook my head and took out my bow as we started our night archery training.

*********************************************************************

"So you have traveled to the city of battle?"

Carmelia asked as she munched on the meat at the table, I sat across her as I ate my share,

"Yes, I being there during my travels, its a fun place, the people that are there too straightforward though"

"Tch, you're so lucky"

The cold-faced Carmelia spoke as her voice was tinged with a hint of jealousy, seeing it I smirked on the inside, by now I have already made some sort of trust with both Carmel and Carmelia and now I can start to implement a small part of my plans, drinking the juice I spoke,

"You seem jealous?"

"It's just your imagination"

"Sure, sure"

I smiled mischievously, as I sipped the juice at my hand, making Carmelia annoyed, indicated by the rough movement of her hands on the food, I have been able to see the small indications that indicate her mood changes, in fact I have done this for all my woman or the ones in the future, after all even if I succeed, I would still always have to be on edge,

"So Carmelia, do you want to go on an adventure?"

I asked her with a serious face, making her surprised, and her expression become complex, leaning onto my chair I continued,

"Senior, I know about what happened in the past but don't let that chain you down, how about this why don't we go out for one time? just one time and we will see"

My words lingered in the air as a frown came on Carmelia's face, she seemed o be in deep thought if it was anyone that said this I am sure that it would have made Carmelia and Carmel both react violently but by now I have already cemented my position as her junior, plus I know that deep down she herself also wants to get rid of this problem of hers.

A contradiction of her's born from the trauma of the past, something that deeply affects Carmel, while she won't show it Carmelia is extremely caring of Carmel, after all, Carmelia itself was born from this trauma, if I were to speak of this to Carmel she would reject it but its more easier with Carmelia since she would be able to convince Carmel.

Silence remained like this for some time, finally about 5 minutes later Carmelia looked directly into my eyes, this time it was much colder than before,

"Tell me Austin, why do you want to help us, what is in it for you?"

This question right now was very important, in the game, this was a scenario that took place, that time the village boy gave an answer-filled with his purity and kindness, that moved a Carmelia almost making Carmel and Carmelia fall for him and it was at this time that we enter and try to fuck it up but that way won't work for me.

Even if I say that dialogue I would only earn Carmel's and Carmelia's disdain, for they both know I am not some kind and ignorant boy, no I am a noble of one of the highest tire, having already dealt with several schemes and lies,

"Why you ask?"

I spoke as I smiled, not at all intimidated, I looked at Carmelia's dark eyes, my intention speaking directly for her,

"Simple, its because I want to, the one thing master deeply regrets about is what happened to you and I wish to correct it, plus didn't I tell you, you are my senior, you are my family, and do you always need a reason to help your family?"

As I finished I didn't leave Carmelia's eyes, as I kept the contact, the atmosphere remained chilling but it didn't last long as Carmelia closed her eyes, a few seconds later she opened them, the coldness in them had received, a playful twinkle and cheerful aura now covered her, I instantly knew that there was a change,

"Carmel"

"Yes~"

She responded with a smile, the usual cheerful voice returned, though I could feel that her gaze at me was much more warmer,

+300 affection

"Are you serious about what you said?"

"I am, I wish to help you but I could only do that if you let me"

Carmel remained silent, her eyes seemed lost and then I saw her body trembling, I knew that she was going through the trauma in her head, I stood up as I walked to her taking her hands, holding them tight, with my other hand I patted her back in a smooth nation,

"Senior I am here, don't let it consume you, here right now no one would harm you"

My calm voice with the special spell I brought from the system seemed to help as Carmel's body stopped trembling, her eyes soon gained their focus, she turned her face towards me as she gave me a weak smile,

"Sorry junior looks like I showed you my weak side"

I shook my head at her,

"It's okay, everyone has their weak side, it just depends on if you are willing to go above them, plus I could never look down on my senior, can I?"

My last words were playful causing Carmel to chuckle, she seemed much freer now,

"You're right, I can't wallow in my fear forever"

"So...?"

I asked her with anticipation and she nodded her head,

"Let's do it, we can go on an adventure"

"Good"
