The Conquerors Path

Chapter 368 The Ruins

'Looks like her time is thinning out'

Seeing the bloody scene and comparing it with the knowledge that I possess, I could easily guess that Sabrina's situation isn't all that good, in fact, the ability she's using right now is extremely taxing on her, plus the pain she's going through is also inhuman,

'Gotta meet her fast'

Having gotten an idea of what was happening, I quickly moved toward Sabrina's location, as for how I know it? well, the little gift that I gave to Sabrina has a small tracking location, of course, being as smart as she is, she would have checked, double-checked, and even triple-checked the thing I gave her.

Also adding on to her desperation that she hides, in the end, she ended up using my gift, well even if that failed I had several backups in place, one being her most favorite book, one that she cares above all and anything else, the one book signed by her favorite author that changed her life....me.

And as anyone can guess the book itself is has a tracker in place, sigh I am starting to sound more like a stalker yandere boyfriend now,

'Though in that sense it not wrong'

Chuckling to myself, I kept my speed as I raised towards the marked position, a few minutes later the forest-like area started to clear up, and the heat around me started to raise and in a few seconds after a wide desert now spread across my eyes,

'Looks like she's using the desert region'

My body flashed as I started to run around the desert my presence being completely hidden and undetectable, after half an hour of running around, avoiding dangers and some legacies I quickly arrived at the location, the only thing was I was standing nowhere,

'Underground...huh'

My eyes lit up with certain complex light as I looked below me, where I could see an abandoned land of destruction and wealth laying far and wide, soon I picked a familiar aura that I had saved, though for now it appeared a bit weaker than normal, after having a good look around I stopped using my ability and my eyes went back to normal,

'System'

[Yes?]

"Give me all the information about the lost land below me"

[Everything?]

'Yes, make it everything, I can't half-ass this, she's too smart of me to just play around with'

[Calculating.....]

[Total price, 20,000 affection points, are you ready for the trade?]

Hearing the price I winced a bit but in the end I agreed and soon different information started to fill my mind, in the past, it was hurtful but now its more like a small headache, seconds passed after which the information stopped. Taking a deep breath I started to organize all the information, trying to find the best route to make her more friendly toward me.

Taking her heart might be a problem, as I seemed to understand that she seems to have a mega crush on my author persona, of course, revealing this would make my job much easier but my future plans will go to hell, so for now baby steps is the only way, of course, she will know that I am the author but it would be one of total 'coincidence',

'Nop that won't work'

'Well, that seems a bit too much'

'Nah...I might end up making a monster

'Oh...that might work....'

Several pans ran through my head after which I finally stopped on one plan that seems most feasible, since my objective is not to make her fall in love with me, its more easier to create a plan, the only thing being which path I should take,

'Well, let's go with the mysterious one, with her mind that's the best route for now'

Having gotten my plan on, I sat there in meditating for an hour polishing up the plan, trying to cover most loopholes I can but no matter how hard I try they will exist, all I could do is to make them as little as possible,

"Right, let's get this done"

I spoke standing up and dusting myself.

Third Person POV:

"Damn it! looks like I am stuck here for now"

Sabrina cursed as she sat down on the ground with her back to a wall, her beauty shining through even though she looked pale and sickly now, her aura and power being highly fragile, a thin line of blood leaked through her mouth as she washed it off,

"Cough.....I don't have much time left, I need to get to the end here"

She spoke to herself as her eyes trailed to a locked door, it was a simple-looking circular door with several engravings on them, the language neing one of the past unused language of the elves,

'Sigh, just what could be the last combo?'

She asked herself as she took up a notebook, looking at the scribbles on it she tried her best to make sense of all the mysteries surrounding the symbol, she herself is a bit of the expert on the languages, one of the gifts of her cursed mind,

"The bloodied night of the unseen shall see the end of the unseeing night, what does that even mean?"

She asked out loud not expecting any answer but in this case, she did get it,

"It means that a massacre is nigh"

Sabrina's body shot up from the ground, her body being covered with her unique eleven magic, all the mana in the surroundings rushing to her, while the nature itself started to bend to her will, several unseen plants started to rise from the ground,

"Who?"

She asked with vigilant eyes,

"Wow, not a bad response, got to say, you live you to your potential"

The voice was heard as clapping sounds began to fill the small area held high by several pillars.

Clap....Clap.....Clap....Clap.

As the clap pounded out a person walked out from the darkness of the entrance,

"Austin?"

Sabrina asked with suspicion filling her eyes, her mana being more controlled,

"The one and only"

Austin, replied as he gave her a a smile and a gentlemanly bow,

"Prove it to me that it's you"

Sabrina spoke with a light tone, her vigilance still up, hearing her words a meaningful smile graced Austin's lips as he spoke,

"How's my gift?"

This was more than enough to offset some of the tension, as Sabrina sighed and her mana started to shimmer down,

"Oh it's just you"

She said, seeing so Austin started to walk towards her all relaxed but just as he had taken a step several powerful vines sprouted from the bottom at lighting speed and bound Austin, not even giving him a chance to react,

"Don't try anything funny, the frey veins will suck out all the mana of a person and make him extremely delirious and open to speaking the truth more"

Sabrina spoke with a cautious tone as she still stood a distance away as she spoke, her vigilance only kept increasing as she saw the light smile on Austin widening at her words, though it didn't last for long as a hurt look took his face,

"That wasn't quite nice and here I was thinking we had gotten close"

"We were never close"

Sabrina replied with a frown,

"Ouch, my poor heart"

Austin said as he seemed quite leisure with several vines surrounding his body,

"let me go princess, it's quite uncomfortable"

He spoke,

"Why should I?"

She spoke back,

"Well don't say I didn't warn you"
