Chapter 257: Disagreement

Pov Elsaris: 

  I came to Zenos' room at dusk as he asked, he told me how he would help my sister, told me a little about his powers, and showed me how he synthesizes bloodlines. 

  It surprised me to find Vanessa in Zenos' room at first, I thought it would be a conversation just between him and me, but then I understood why she was there. 

  Zenos didn't just want to talk to me, he wanted to show me what he needed to do to help my sister. 

  As someone who has worked for many years in the Black Market, I had heard stories about the wonders of a unique Synthesis skill, I knew it could be used in many different situations, among those situations the one that made this skill most famous was Skill Synthesis. 

  In the various stories I've heard, I've always thought that using this skill was quick and painless, so I was surprised that it was possible to synthesize bloodlines, and I was even more surprised to see the suffering Zenos suffered in the synthesis of bloodlines. 

  I could see the damage to Zenos' body and also feel the power of the bloodlines he was synthesizing, it was a power that made even me afraid. 

  The only reason Zenos didn't die was that his daughter Vanessa is here healing him constantly, the process was slow and torturous, but in the end, he made it before he lost consciousness in his daughter's arms. 

  "Do you understand now? Can you understand why he asked you to wait a few more days?"  (Vanessa) 

  "…" (I) 

  "You don't know if it's going to be days, as far as I know, the people in this village we're helping have been fighting Farus for years."  (I) 

  "You yourself saw your father's plan in action, you also already know what we will do in the next few days, if everything goes well more than half of Farus' troops will be destroyed and we will be in the numerical advantage and with the element of surprise."  (Vanessa) 

  "It's going to be difficult for Farus to find out what's going on with his troops, not knowing what we've been up to will give us another advantage when it comes to the final battle against him."  (Vanessa) 

  "All this is guesswork, there are no guarantees in a battle, everything about Farus is still a mystery, we still don't know his real strength or what kind of powers he has, I can't take into account what might happen, I can only be sure what is happening."  (I) 

  "As far as I know, Zenos might die tomorrow in the fight against a monster, he might die in the battle against Farus' troops, or he might even die fighting Farus."  (I) 

  "If that happens I'll be back to square one again, I'll have to wait a long time for another opportunity to save my sister."  (I) 

  Vanessa gets up and looks at me while still holding Zenos in her arms, she looked at me seriously and I realized that she wouldn't leave me options to choose from. 

  "Do you think the bloodline synthesis was bad? That at least is damage only to your body."  (Vanessa) 

  "Using his abilities on other people has its risks, the worse the state of the target of his abilities, the worse he will suffer and I can regretfully say that the damage to his body is the lightest of the side effects."  (Vanessa) 

  "You don't know what state he was in helping me, you also don't know what he was in helping Layla."  (Vanessa) 

  "Kira told me what happened back then, she told me about the auction you organized, she told me how Layla was doing at the time, and she told me what my Father had to go through to help her."  (Vanessa) 

  "(So I was right, Layla is that grotesque thing I sold at auction.)" (I) 

  "(How has she changed so much?)" (I) 

  As Vanessa told me these things I looked at Layla who was ignoring us, she was distracted trying to clean the blood from Zenos' face as gently and delicately as possible while she has a sad face looking at Zenos. 

  "You should be glad my Father sympathizes with the way you care about your sister, he's been honest with you and all he's asking in return is a few days."  (Vanessa) 

  "But can't you trust him even a little?"  (Vanessa) 

  "No, I can't."  (I) 

  "I won't trust someone I've only known for a few days, even if everything you tell me is true, my only concern is still my sister."  (I) 

  "If Zenos is indeed able to save her, I will be eternally grateful and I will keep my end of the bargain, I will serve him as his follower or servant."  (I) 

  "But don't think about trying to manipulate me or trick me before," he said.  (I) 

  "You damn rabbit…" (Vanessa) 

  I can see Vanessa's fury showing on her face, she even started to emit bloodlust in my direction, but she wasn't the only one, when I looked back at Layla, she was red-eyed and all four hands glowing, her bloodlust was greater than Vanessa's, she looked like a complete Demon in my eyes. 

  But they weren't the only ones, I could feel a bloodlust as great as Layla's coming from Zenos' shadow, with that, I just found out that Nix has been listening to everything we've been talking about so far. 

  "(I have to be careful with what I say if this continues like this I may even be able to get out of here with a lot of effort, but my children will probably die and I will miss the best opportunity I ever had to help my sister.)" (I) 

  "Since you're so picky and don't seem to care about my Father, then you can take your kids and your sister's crystal block, then get out of here."  (Vanessa) 

  "Your spy skills can be useful, but it's not worth having someone like you on our side, get out of here NOW!!!"  (Vanessa) 

  "Are you letting her out after everything you said about the master?"  (Layla) 

  "My Father won't like it if we attack her, just let her go, what happens to her doesn't matter to me anymore."  (Vanessa) 

  "Wait, you said you were going to help my sister, Zenos promised!"  (I) 

  "You said it right, my Father promised, I didn't."  (Vanessa) 

  "Do you plan on breaking a deal? Are you prepared for the consequences?"  (I) 

  "You don't understand your situation, do you think running away from here will help you? Do you think that if you do something to my Father out of revenge, you will get away with it?"  (Vanessa) 

  "You have no place in this world where you can run if something happens to my Father because of you, so be careful what you say."  (Vanessa) 

  "…" (I) 

  "(Damn! Things escalated in a really bad way faster than I thought.)" (I) 

  I was lost, I knew that this time I had caused my own ruin by not being able to control my mouth, all I had to do was stay quiet and accept this situation for a few more days. 

  What Vanessa said was not a lie, the chances of Zenos beating Farus are great, even if something unexpected happens, it doesn't necessarily mean that we will lose too or that he will die, I was being impatient and pessimistic. 

  As always I don't think straight when my sister is involved, what I said was disrespectful to the person who is doing their best to help my sister, I have to fix this now, I can't miss this opportunity, I can't let my sister down again. 

  Sigh 

  "I admit I'm wrong, I apologize for what I said, when my sister is involved I lose control over the things I say and do."  (I) 

  "To my ears, it sounded like her real thoughts, so don't try to apologize so superficially now."  (Vanessa) 

  Apologizing didn't seem to help, I was starting to panic, I had to do something, soon I felt a lot of people approaching, the other people in the mansion must have felt this bloodlust being directed towards me. 

  "Stop… with that…" (Zenos) 

  "Dad, did you wake up?"  (Vanessa) 

  Zenos breathes heavily for a few seconds before he can speak normally, but he still looks tired and in pain. 

  "I only lost consciousness for a few minutes, how could I not wake up surrounded by so much bloodlust?"  (Zenos) 

  "I don't know what happened, but from the look on Layla's face as she looks at Elsaris and the way Elsaris looks desperate I can imagine that she still hasn't accepted having to wait a few more days."  (Zenos) 

  "Just get over it, I can imagine she's just worried about her sister, just let her get her mind in order."  (Zenos) 

  "Why can't I attack her now, especially after all she's said?"  (Layla) 

  "Just calm down, don't be dramatic adding to our problems, Elsaris is right to think about her sister's best, so you don't have to take everything she says seriously."  (Zenos) 

  "I really said bad things, I've already apologized for that, but you should think about what I said, I haven't known you long enough to trust you."  (I) 

  "Dad, I'm going to accompany you to the bathroom, you need to get that blood out of your body, after that you have to rest until tomorrow."  (Vanessa) 

  "Don't divert the subject Vanessa… I know by your look that you're angry… so control yourself, you're not a child."  (Zenos) 

  "You can go… Elsaris."  (Zenos) 

  I guess I was lucky this time, if he hadn't woken up to this amount of bloodlust, I wouldn't have known how to handle this situation. 

  "I'm sorry for what happened and what I said, but for me who's been waiting for ages to help my sister, I can't wait any longer now that I'm so anxious."  (I) 

  "I will wait until after the battle with Farus as you asked before, I apologize again for what I said."  (I) 

  After saying that I go out the window so I don't run into those who are running up here towards the bedroom door. 

  "(I never thought the day would come when I would be apologizing to someone from such a humiliating firm, even more to people weaker than me, but I do it for you sister.)" (I)
