The Conquerors Path

Chapter 322 - The Hero Keeps Falling

"So everything's well for the coming opening?"

I asked Alex, the brains of my faction,

"Yes, all the members of 18 and above are set, they are ready for action"

Alex replied, passing on to me a document containing the information I need,

"Are the new recruits going well?"

I asked to Alex again,

"Yes, ever since the information of you being the next successor of the Archery Empress came out, we had a spike in members who were applying, some of them aren't bad"

Alex replied. I nodded my head at it, appreciating the arrangement that he had done,

"What about the training for group battles?"

I asked and this time it was directed towards Rina and Jacob, where Rina spoke first with a hungry smile,

"I am dealing with it but it would take some time before I could get them all to work together, their ego is causing friction"

Her words were filled with dissatisfaction,

"How do you plan on dealing with it?"

I questioned,

"Of course, we will be beating them to a pulp!"

Jacob replied, flexing his muscles to me, I nodded my head at his words while I gave out subtle messages to Rina, who was more level-headed among the two,

"Good, take any measures but by the end of the training I want all of them to fight as if they are a big family, got it?"

"Yes"

Both Jacob and Rina replied at the same time, a fire burning deep within their eyes, for a moment felt pity for the people under them, they are going to have it rough,

"How's, the assassination training going?"

My gaze turned towards Sana as my question was directed towards her, seeing my focus her gaze turned much more calm as she replied,

"All are going well, Amon is being a great help, both of us together are making great strides, by the two-month deadline, everything will be ready"

"Good, keep it up"

I indulgently smiled at her, making her break out in a small smile herself, the only one missing from here now was Amon but I had sent him on a more important mission,

"How's the healer group going?"

My next question was for Clara,

"It's on track, I have got myself, good healers, they will be useful in the long run"

"Okay, if you need more funds just ask"

Giving her a nod of gratitude I turned towards Emma, who was having a rabbit in her lap as she petted it,

"The summoner training?"

"All well, got me some new pets"

"Okay, if you need more or a special one just ask"

"Of course"

Emma smiled happily as she agreed to my words, then I turned toward my two cute twin lovers,

"Mika, Rika how's their training going?"

"A little bit rough on the edges but they are getting better"

"They need some more training"

The more relaxed Rika said with a smile first, while the stricter Mika kept up her standards, I listened carefully to the words, pondering on them for a moment as I spoke,

"If they are ready, deploy them to challenges, they need more experience"

"Okay~"

"Got it"

Once again Rika replied first while Mika followed, seeing them for a moment I felt nostalgic, they both had come a long way, Rika from her shy self turned to be more open and friendly, while Mika matured to be more open and understanding,

"Lanora, how's it going with the recruitment?"

Hearing my question a strained smile came up on Lanora's face as she replied with a suppressed tone,

"Well it's taking time, right now you don't have the best reputation with demons"

"I know...."

Hearing her reply I could only stay silent for a moment, soon several ideas played on my mind before I spoke,

"Can you call them on to a place for me to meet them one on one?"

"I can but what will you do?"

Lanora asked me, intrigue deep in her eyes,

"Simple, I will just sing for them"

"Oh! that might work"

Hearing my words a hint of excitement flashed in Lanora's eyes, she could easily understand my plans from my words,

"See to it"

I ordered,

"Yes sir!"

Lanora playfully replied as she gave me a salute,

"Now...why are you looking at me like that?"

I asked to Nyla who seems to have a frown on her face for quite some time, my question only made her more confused,

"Nothing..... it's just I can feel a vampire bond?"

Nyla said, her voice not too sure, seeing it my heart started beating faster but on the outward, I kept a calm look,

"Oh, that might be because I was dealing with a half-vampire now"

"A what?!"

My response got a heavy reaction as Nyla looked at me with open eyes, the presence of a half-vampire isn't a small thing but she soon calmed herself down as she spoke,

"Can you be more specific?"

"I can, if you have any more specific ones, we can discuss them after the meeting"

Hearing my reply she nodded her head, taking in my words, then my eyes focused on Leonardo who was completely silent during the meeting,

"How was your mission, I heard that you had some problems?"

"I am fine, thanks for asking"

Leonardo replied in a nonchalant voice, on the border of disrespectful, which earned some frowns from the people around,

"You seem to be in a bad mood, is there any problem, or issues within the faction?"

I asked, my face changing to a frown,

"No, it's nothing I am just tired"

Leonardo spoke with a strained smile, realizing his mistake,

"I see, if so then good"

Losing my interest in him I looked around,

"So does anybody have any problems with the proposed method?"

After asking so I turned silent waiting to see if anybody has any problems, thankfully only silence remained, and just as I was about to end the meeting Leonardo raised his hand,

"Yes?"

Seeing it I let him speak,

"Can I meet Sonia?"

He asked, his voice a bit threatening,

"I am sorry but I do not own Sonia, if you want to meet her just meet her"

"But, she refuses to see me and Clara keeps her away from me"

Leonardo spoke, his voice filled with dissatisfaction, seeing it I looked toward Clara who was now frowning, she looked at Leonardo as she spoke,

"I am sorry to say this Leonardo but Sonia doesn't want to meet you and I would appreciate it if you could stay away from her"

"Why should I?"

Leonardo spoke with an angered tone, a bit of his mana shaking the room, now everybody was frowning, especially the close friends of Clara,

"Don't go overboard, Leonardo"

Rika spoke, the smile she always has disappearing, suddenly the atmosphere in the room was getting worse, seeing it I intervened,

"Leonardo, control yourself, it is Sonia's right if she wants to see you or not, please don't go overboard"

"You would like that won't you?"

Suddenly Leonardo spoke in an accusing voice,

"What does that mean?"

I asked, this time my tone no longer friendly,

"Recently I myself have heard that you have been pushing your friend Sonia away, do not speak of things you do not know of"

Clara spoke, with an angered tone, taking Leonardo back,

"I-"

Just before he could speak Elda did,

"Leonardo don't speak in such a manner toward my brother"

Her sweet voice made Leonardo silent, he seem to understand that the majority right now wasn't on his side,

"I am sorry, it would look like I haven't got some rest yet, excuse me"

Saying so he left the room, without even asking me for permission and now an awkward atmosphere had filled the room, just like I wanted.
