The Conquerors Path

Chapter 683-Negative Emotions.

"Hope you are all feeling better?"

Nini, the demon witch, looking cute, spoke. Right now the four of us are in a room, an extremely luxurious one with a lot of functions that could only be seen in royalty-like places, healing sectors all around, delicious foods that can't be found anywhere, with their own healing factors made from chefs with professions that can add special features to food and even more products of greatness all sitting around.

"We are fine now," I replied back, still looking perfect as always, with the other three now having regained their sense of balance back. The three of them now looking well, thus Nini with a light smile spoke.

"Then shall we head out? Isn't time against you right now?"

Her words earned a nod from me, while the ever-free-spirited Carmelia nodded her head too, though the other two only got paler.

'Sigh...this is why you need to feel some adventure of yours once in a while.'

Being the son of dukes, they themselves wouldn't have gone through tough situations like this, though the coming final years have the need to travel out and earn a lot of points. Knowing these guys, they must have directly taken a shortcut the moment they were outside the academy, not something uncommon at all.

Carmel or Carmelia can't do that due to their very sensitive nature, the moment she is chosen for an outside travel, lots and lots of protection will directly be dispatched for her, thus making her little dream of great traveled freedom down the drain.

'Though their suffering has just begun now.'

I mused, my eyes meeting Nini who was doing her level best to hold back her instant love, desire, obsession, worship, and fascination with me, those dark emotions barely being held back under the pretense of normal. Heck, I am sure that if I asked her to get on her knees and bark she would do that without question, just asking her to even lick my toes would be like a great achievement to her.

'Sadly she is the more rational one I can use for now.'

The fact here is that Nini knows who I am; in fact, I had some talking and dealings with her in the past, for she is the right-hand woman of Astrid, a very powerful and well-respected witch, with a fearsome reputation around. She is an amazing witch involved more in the disciplinary commission of the witches.

Dealing with witches that go out of bounds, thus making it such that her powers and ruthlessness aren't ones to be underestimated. 'The Three-Mouthed Bloody Witch,' that's what others call her behind her back, for make no mistake the disciplinary commission she works for also deals with anyone that has any illicit desires towards the witches.

After all, in the beginning, it wasn't abnormal at all for powerful people to try and kidnap witches to use them as slaves for their own production, the beginning path of the witches being extremely hard for them, and it's a major taboo to even try to kidnap a witch if found then your results would be extremely horrendous.

And Nini is part of the team, in fact, a team leader that guides stuff like this, making her reputation spread far and wide as dangerous.

[

Name: Nini Kinini

Age: 327

Affection: 1000% (Pure raw worship/fascination/love/respect/godly feelings...what the heck is this?!)

Power level: Half-Step Imperial

]

'Um...I might have gone overboard with the witches.'

[You think!?]

Hey, can't blame a man for trying to get his priorities straight but then again this only makes things perfect for me, with such loyalty for powerful ones would only do good, plus the power level of Nini might just be at the half-step Imperial but in a real battle even Imperial will run away from her in fear, due to her minute use of destruction energy in battle.

A type of energy every powerhouse in the world dreads going against, thus the position of the witch temples here is something that none can go against at all.

"This place never changes."

I spoke out as our group disguised as normal walked out of the teleportation center, the area being much more towards the rougher areas of the Eflan Empire, our group making sure to leave the teleportation center as normal travelers without any specialty among us, our disguises going to match as demons as we walked out.

My eyes gazed towards the red burning sky with the representation of three suns floating above, each one with its own unique fluctuations to it, while the lands in front of me looked well-developed, the buildings and the city looking beautifully built, not falling itself back from the Silviya realm, except the conditions here are a bit more rougher and chaotic but the demons here thrive in that, so that's no problem.

"Shall we?"

Nini asked at the forefront, she too hiding her looks but with a cloak as she took the lead, I, the leader of the other three, nodded my head as I spoke.

"Let's."

With that, we started to walk towards the exit of the city, the rest of the three sticking close to me as Carmelia whispered into my ears.

"Um...do you think she is trustworthy, the rest of the demons were looking at her with fear back there."

'Oh?...good thing she noticed.'

"Let's trust her for now, 'cause Angelina gets nothing out of hurting us, I have already kept precautions for that."

My reply calmed Carmelia down, though she had to lean into my ears, looking quite intimate as she did that, because of which I could see the jealousy flashing through the eyes of the two, this time the jealousy being quite extremely high, something which I enjoyed, thus would mean that my plans for them have already started.

Just like always the food that I gave the two wasn't something normal, the food that Carmelia ate was normal, but the food that the other two ate had some special effects to it, the simple effect of increasing and harmonizing dark emotions, all of such emotions would increase by at least 75% and it will go to affect their mind.

That's right, to my coming play, these two would be powerful pieces for me to use, I mean some normal jealousy is normal, but when that jealousy keeps increasing in a dangerous manner, it will lead to dark thoughts and impulsive actions, I mean didn't I say it before? Jealousy can at times lead to actions that can make all regret.

Think of this, they have been running behind her all the time, protecting her, giving her their love, now I came in disrespecting her, calling her family to hurting her but even after all that all they can see is me getting closer to Carmelia, the Carmel they look sticking to me like glue, trying her best to please me, how would anyone feel?

Plus, I too plan to give these two a sense of their own delusions too, little by little the actions I do will chip their minds away, no other magic will be needed here, just the one pushing forth their negative emotions to a high degree, the rest of the actions and ploys I have set in motion will do the rest for me.

'This will be fun.'

I mused as we soon reached the gate, the guards looking at us with wary eyes but the moment Nini flashed her identity, they shriveled away in fear, their backs bending deeper as they shouted out.

"Open the gates!"

With that, the huge gates started to tumble around, as it opened, my gaze fell on the reddened lands, where far into the lands lay highly raised cliffs, before into those cliffs dried off red and black-colored trees could be spread out, their unique purple color leaves giving off a sense of novelty to the whole forest itself.

'Beautiful yet tinted with danger.'

I thought as we stepped out of the city, the place itself is more towards wilderness and rural area since it lay towards the edges of the Eflan Empire, thus it spread around with less developed areas, forests, unchecked beasts, and more, it is not exactly safe.

'Though it's not like we are heading to the real tribe.'

The real Zoxia tribe right now is somewhere else; of course, during my travel, I had already gotten my hand on this antidote by passing through that tribe, planning on a different idea before getting Carmel to my side. I mean I can still remember the shit I had to go through in the real tribe during the real arc to get the antidote when I played the game.

So I got the antidote before, I wasn't sure if it would happen, due to all the butterfly effects flying around but I still got it nonetheless and now it's going to be very useful. So the question came, if not the Zoxia tribe, where else are we going?

The answer is that we are indeed going to the Zoxia tribe, an imitation that I had set up using my resources, with the help of the church, of course.

'Manh...this is a lot of resources.'

I side-eyed Carmelia for a moment, the amount of resources that will be needed for this isn't small but this gives me the control I need to play my plans.
