The Conquerors Path Chapter 571-Being The Weak Hero Again.

Chapter 571-Being The Weak Hero Again.

"I wish for you to meet my parents...."

My words brought a tremble to the woman sitting beside me, Zelda's eyes widening a bit, while that beautiful blush only got more defined. Her eyes turned towards me as she asked.

"Well, aren't you taking this a bit too fast?"

I chuckled at her words as I spoke.

"I don't want anything too excessive. I just want my family members to meet this stunning woman that I have come to know."

This made Zelda smile as her hands tightened around mine, her fingers feeling a bit hot as she replied.

"Well, aren't you a smooth talker?"

"Guilt as charged."

I countered as the two of us laughed at the same time, though the addition of my words was still gaining me more affection points from the woman in front of me. She has now come to like me and even has entered the love level. To make it much more rich, I just have to create a certain romantic-like relations.h.i.+p and certain spicy things around us.

From my time spent around Zelda, I now have a very concrete idea about her character. From what I can gather, she is similar to Nyla, or could say she was similar to Nyla. From the information I have on her past life, she was a battle maniac and a true hero. Her desire for battle and piercing others took the forefront of her fights.

She created and protected, had several strong students, led wars, protected lives, and battled to her heart's content. But at the end of her life, there was no one with her. Sure, she had lots of respect and loving people, but she had no true family who shed buckets of tears at her demise.

She had no lover to hold her hand, she never felt the warmth of a relations.h.i.+p, and she had no descendants to carry her blood nor any blood ties to truly praise her as family. While she had all the love, I am sure she felt the loneliest in the world as she died, and that would be why the current her is more controlled and reserved.

All she wants now is true heart-pounding love, and happiness in this peaceful world she helped create, and I can respect that. After all, when everything is over, I too just want to rest and live in this beautiful life that I would have created. But sadly for the current Zelda, the time of peace is coming to an end, and an all-encompa.s.sing war is coming back.

"The return of Aira, the weapon being chosen by Leonardo, and the reincarnation of Zelda, none of this is a coincidence..."

"I would love to meet your parents, but before that, I have some things I must truly finish."

As Zelda finished the last of her words, her eyes narrowed while her mana started to get a bit riled up, a p.i.s.sed-off expression on her face as she looked at the academy. Seeing this, an inner smile came to me, for I knew the reason for her expression. It's due to the very fact that Zelda is engaged, or it would be more accurate to say that Zelda's marriage was given away without her knowledge.

Even I came upon this information quite recently, and it would seem that her family, the current one, seemed to betroth her to a very powerful man among the Lion tribe, the current prince of the Lion tribe, a senior who got out from here two years ago and the older brother of Nell.

Of course, the man in question looks like a very good match for Zelda, but who is she? The hero and the respected and powerful woman who led wars. Would she easily accept some guy because someone said so? That's a big no....

Moreover, she has in her heart accepted me as her mate, someone enough to give her a good time, handsome, powerful, and one who is very mysterious, a powerful seducer that quickly gets all the girls' attention. Plus, I did a little digging, and it would seem that Zelda doesn't have a very good image of the prince, which is a bonus for me.

"What is it?..."

My voice turned a bit low, with some disappointment filling my tone, which quickly brought Zelda's attention. Her fingers got tighter as she spoke.

"It's not that I don't want to, but it would seem my parents suddenly arranged and..."

And as such, Zelda started to explain to me everything in a light tone, while her brown eyes kept looking at me. I kept my expression still as I nodded my head at her words. Soon she "Is someone jealous?~"

finished, and I asked.

"So he just gets to be engaged to you?"

My words were tinted with jealousy, which she easily picked up on as she teased me.

"Is someone jealous?~"

"Yes."

I directly spoke with my eyes to her, which made her surprised, her eyes widening while that blush, which was fading away quickly, came back. With a bit of fl.u.s.ter, she tilted her head towards the cl.u.s.ter of buildings as I lightly spoke.

"Cute."

This made her tail start to bounce left and right behind me. Right now, the two of us haven't described the relations.h.i.+p between the two of us. I have shown that I am very interested in her, and her current actions have shown back that she too is becoming interested in me. Yet we still haven't named what our relations.h.i.+p is, and that is good for me.

For I have a very good plan in set for her, where she will be screaming to take me as her lover. But I have other information for her to know about.

"So you shall be living towards your family to deal with this?"

I asked.

"Yes."

She replied to which I spoke.

"So will you join my faction?"

"Of course."

She directly replied, making me smile, one that Zelda definitely caught. This led to some peace between us till I spoke again.

"My future isn't going to be very bright."

These words surprised Zelda as her head whipped towards me, but I wasn't looking at her as my eyes covered towards the far horizon. Complex emotions started to fill me, my shoulders seemed to get heavier as I continued.

"I have great responsibilities on my shoulder and I have great powers I have been gifted with to hold such power. It's hard. I stumble, I fall, I cry, yet I keep going on..."

As I spoke these words, I could feel a change in Zelda beside me as her fingers held me tighter, seemingly trying to give me support.

"Most don't know it, the blessings I have unique to me come with great duties. I am supposed to be hailed as a hero, but I don't feel and want to be a hero. I just want to look after the people I love..."

As I stopped here, I turned towards Zelda, my eyes looking 'dead', which she frowned at, but it was later followed by very gentle eyes as she slowly took my head and placed it on her chest. It was very bouncy as her scent filled my nose. Her hand started to pat my head as she spoke.

"As you said to me, you are not alone, for I shall be beside you..."

As she said this, she placed a kiss on my forehead, her words making me smile.

'Bingo'
