The Conquerors Path

"So what are we here to discuss?"

A handsome middle-aged demon asked as he leaned onto his chair, a lion kin responded to that question,

"It's about the birth of a new Imperial and 'that' organization"

Hearing these words the temperature in the room became colder, and some of the men had livid expressions, seemingly great hate brewing in their hearts, meanwhile, I sat at the head seat as I gazed at all this with calm eyes,

"Damn....just tell me the information that you all have, I will kill all those bastards!"

A huge man with pointed ears spoke, he had a handsome look but unlike the more slim and lean elf this one was the pure definition of power, he had muscles everywhere, a man part of the Niflin tribe of the elven species, a rare breed that focuses more on physical power rather than magical ones, seeing one is extremely rare,

"Calm down brother, we all know you're angry but here we need to deal with this in a smart way"

The demon king spoke, the man had purple skin, with two different eyes colors, them being green and red, two goat-like horns with green and red hue grew from his head, looking at the eleven muscle man, he spoke with a calm tone,

"Remember these people all most took out our loved ones, our revenge must be painful and dreadful"

"Sigh...I know but whenever I think of how we had to kill Zokar, my blood just boils"

The moment the name Zokar has heard everyone had complex emotions in their eyes, even though he was a traitor he wasn't hated by anyone, as they all knew that Zokar did what he had to do to protect the ones he loved and if pushed came to show then they might have done the same too.

I remained silent as I looked at all this, moving forward I took the file that was placed in front of me, seeing my action the rest did the same, silently looking through the file I read the information with calm eyes, and a few minutes later I let out a sigh as I spoke,

"Sigh.....things just seem to be getting more and more complicated"

No one replied to my words as they themselves were sinking in the information they read, it wasn't much just the fact that some kingdoms were already under their control, while the major powers already has one or more pawns placed in them if we were to even touch one of them, then like a connecting thread, the rest would react.

Torturing them also is not that useful, all of them have some sort of special magic circle on them that automatically kills them if they speak, while the higher numbers have a death mark on them, all of the higher embers were truly fucking crazy, dealing with them is a headache,

"Looks like we could only depend on your plan Austin"

Finally, Ralph spoke as he looked at me with complex eyes, the rest too sighed as they understood that I was their final hope for revenge, I smiled as I shook my head,

"It's no problem we both know that dealing with 'these' people was never going to be easy, all we could do here is stay vigilant and hope that just one slip would take place, that's when we would strike"

"Yeah, that seems to be our last option"

Ralph nodded his head agreeing with it but soon a smile came to his face as he spoke,

"Well at least there's one good news, congrats on your aunt becoming a new Imperial"

"Thanks"

I nodded with a smile and soon the rest started to congratulate me, all this while I just kept a smile and took all this in when they have all quietened down I spoke,

"Guys, I need your help, I want all the information about the ones that would take this opportunity to act against my aunt, I want to know it all, even to the smallest detail"

"Consider it done"

"Yup, I will see what I can find"

"Don't worry, we will make sure nothing happens"

As soon as I had finished speaking the rest started to support me, all of them were more than willing to help and I appreciated it, unlike some other protagonists I have no interest in waiting for things to happen, I like to snuff the problem at the embers itself.

I know that most won't be able to hurt my aunt and I have 100% trust in her capabilities, yet I still will help her, it was me being hypocritical but I can't help it that's who I am, why else would I be running around getting more power and organization? I could always leave the problem to the rest and relax, with the power I have I would be safe from the clashes that would arise.

But I won't be able to tell that about the people I care about, I would be living the rest of my life here and I don't want to in my later life run around like an idiot dealing with problems nor do I want to cry out after things get fucked up, no, I might have to suffer a bit now but later down my life I could relax with all my lovers and family.

Having this connection with me would make it such that I should always be ready for anything and I would always have the power to deal with it too, even if I show 100% of all my capabilities there would still be crazy idiots that would still aim for the ones that I care about, hence I would act before that, with all the information at my tips, I would rule the world from the dark and light,

"Oh! some to think of it, Ralph did you get the information I asked about?"

"Yes, everything is in my hands, you just have to give me the signal and all this information would be out in a bang"

Ralph spoke with a mischievous smile, responding excitedly to my words, my smile turned predatory hearing Ralph's words, turning to Ralph I continued,

"Then get ready to blast it, I want everyone to know about this"

My words just made Ralph's smile crazier, looking at me with a fed-up expression he spoke,

"You really are madder than you look, you know the repercussion of doing this, right?"

"Doesn't matter, I will make sure that a debt of blood will be paid in blood"

Seeing that I was not budging Ralph just shook his head as he focused back on the meeting, the talk then went on for another hour before which everyone started to disband,

"So Austin, you coming? Athena has been bugging me to invite you for dinner"

It was during this that Ralph walked up to me and spoke with a grumpy voice, hearing it I grinned,

"Why old man? jealous that your wife cares more about me?"

"Bullshit! it's just that she's grateful"

"Yeah...yeah, keep telling yourself that"

Shaking my head my grin broadened which I am sure made Ralph more pissed,

"So you coming or not?"

"I'm coming, it's been a while since I eat Athena's cooking"

"Good, let's go"

Saying so he started to walk towards the door he came with while I started to follow him.
