The Conquerors Path Chapter 116: Just My Luck

Chapter 116: Just My Luck

“I guess it really is him”

Ella’s voice was tinged with a bit of annoyance, hearing it Carmel smiled, she knew that Ella still held a grudge over the loss years ago, she was still hoping to get a rematch at it but that was not the pressing problem at hand

“Emily do you know him?”

Sabrina spoke to Emily, there was intrigue deep within her eyes, she really didn’t know about this interest of her friend, hearing Sabrina’s words Emily soon came out of her planning sphere, she looked at Sabrina as she spoke with a high pitch yet cute voice

“Indeed, I owe him a lot, during my ‘that’ time he had helped me a lot, you could say that it’s due to him that I was able to keep moving forward”

When Emily spoke, she had a smile on her face, she didn’t mention anything extra, as for why?, her eyes soon trailed towards Scarlet, it was not only her, the other girls too looked at scarlet with questioning eyes, during their school years this was the first time they had seen such an outburst from this woman

Nora’s eyes flashed with wariness, while Olivia mind seemed in deep thought, Emily’s eyes flashed with cunningness, thinking about different scenarios but alas Scarlet wasn’t the one to speak, it was Celestinia

“Is he the one?”

Her voice was smooth, seemingly sinking into ones soul, it was different from Angelina’s seductive voice and Sabrina’s hypnotic one that seemed to pull the soul, Celectinia’s voice seemed to contain the power to unknowingly draw in all, even as she spoke her eyes was fixated on Austin

She wanted to know more about this human that Scarlet choose, to her n.o.body in this room mattered much to her, due to her special bloodline she had a different way in valuing someone, to her Scarlet was like a sister and the guy she liked will be her famly to her too

At first glance she could see that he was well looked, even to her he looked quite attractive but she wanted to find more about this human, to see if he was worthy of her sister, at that time Scarlet spoke

“Yes”

Her voice quivered a little but she controlled herself, she waited for this moment for a long time, she could wait a bit more, meanwhile Scarlet’s eyes traveled to Emily, Nora and Olivia, she knew that Nora was Austin’s sister, while the other girls, seeing them her eyes narrowed as a suffocating atmosphere seemed to emerge into the room

All the girls in the room felt a pressure descent on them, Nora’s eyes flashed with cold light, her mana burst into the room along with the other girls, Emily’s face was pale seemingly a bit in struggle, yet deep within her eyes a seed of revenge was brewing, she didn’t know Scarlets intentions but Austin was hers and she doesn’t like to share

“Enough”

Celestina spoke diffusing the atmosphere, soon the rest was able to gain their breath, Scarlet didn’t say anything as she refocused back at the screen, meanwhile the rest of the girls felt a deep interest in Austin, just what did he do to get into the radar of Scarlet?, the room was silent as they all focused back on to the game again

Austin POV:

‘s.h.i.+t, I really got overconfident there’

I couldn’t help but shake my head at my own behavior, and here I wanted to take the win by being anonymous, looking back at Leonardo I sighed, this guy is just as I thought, kind, straightforward and dense, I smiled as I tucked my wet hair backwards, I held myself as I balanced on the surfing board

“Why did you attack me!?”

Just as I had gained my balance Leonardo stood in front of me holding his shoulder with one hand while the other held his sword, I could only shake my head at his childish question, I looked at him as I spoke

“Why can’t I?”

“It’s because-“

Just then Leonardo stopped talking, because he had realized that no one had said that fighting was not forbidden, it was said that only one would escape, it can be either be by being the first to finish or you finis.h.i.+ng you opponent but people won’t prefer it due to the time waste

“So do you understand now?”

My voice was a bit mocking bringing Leonardo out of his daze, I didn’t wait long as I fired another arrow to his face, I had restricted my origin level to test him, seeing the arrow coming to his face, Leonardo waved his sword to cut the arrow

But the arrow exploded as he cut it, making him fly away along with the surfing board, after that I didn’t pay much attention to him, as I started to moved forward towards the exit, lets see how good this guy is, soon I was in a few seconds lead

At the same time I felt a huge amount of mana gathering from the place I had left, looks like Leonardo’s getting serious, I smiled as I continued to move forward, as I kept moving I felt a pretense approaching me from the back and it was caching up to me fast

I looked back seeing Leonardo approaching me with great speed but there was a difference this time, his whole body was covered with a red armor with flaming designs, the previous una.s.suming sword now looking blazing and impressive, it was Leonrdo in combat mode

Seeing him like this brought back some memories of the past which was now getting foggier, I shook my head as I focused back on the task, I kept my eyes forward but soon I felt a heat on my back, I quickly s.h.i.+fted to the side dodging a faming sword strike, the water sizled as vapours started to cover the atmosphere

Leonardo surfed in fast as his body was covered with the flaming armor, Durendal wielded in the past by the one named the flame Emperor, it was said that once he had erased a holw demon army from the world by creating a world flame

I quickly regained my focus as I moved forward, with at most speed, Leonardo didn’t give in as he kept firing flaming sword strikes at me from the back, I dodged each of them as I fired arrows to him, yet the arrows were burned by the protective armor he wears

‘Tch, not bad’

Seeing that my attacks weren’t working I wasn’t worried, Leonrado kept trying to catch up to me, yet whenever he felt that he was close I would move away even faster, he could only helplessly keep firing from the back hoping to hit me by chance

Like that the cat and mouse game continued, soon we past the 2 check point and we were nearing the third and final check point, the one to pa.s.s through it first would be the only one to move forward,

Seeing it Leonardo got desperate, he soon gatheed all of his mana into a single point and casted the spell {sword rain}, soon hundreds of flaming swords gathered above Leonardo aimed at me, seeing this I smiled calmly as I twisted my body to the back facing the attack

I nocked three arrows to my bow as I casted {Explode}, {Repli} and {Fire Immunity} to the three, arrows, I fired three of them at the same time, they flew as tthe three of them split into hundreds of arrows, the swords and the arrows. .h.i.t each other, unlike the last time the arrows didn’t burn, they struck the swords as they blasted, canceling the sword strike

Seeing it I smiled as I moved forward again with a smile, I kept reaching closer, it’s at that time something flew out of my s.p.a.ce ring, it was a badge that was s.h.i.+nning blue, even before I could do anything it flew towards me, at that time the water from below me rose swallowing me

As Leonardo kept moving forward he saw the scene of the silver haired boy being swallowed by the water, he could only feel a rising bewilderment as he moved forward, soon he crossed the third chekpoit emerging as the winner, again the was transported to another starting line with other 25 students

Just as he was thinking about what was happening, the water below them shook, as they were transported out of the game without any warning
