The Conquerors Path

'These people are the lowest of the low here.'

As I thought so, one of the soldiers didn't hesitate to fire a powerful arrow directly to my heart. No questions, no shouts, just a pure action to get me quickly killed, though that didn't happen as I held the arrow in my fingers, blocking it in a very easy manner, a forceful air push being given out from my action.

Though the bigger reaction was the elves no longer had their lustful eyes focused on Sabrina, as they finally looked at me. I held the tip of the arrow in my finger, holding it in my hand as I looked at the arrow with an intrigued look.

"The method done to create this arrow looks quite ingenious."

I spoke with a smile, making the rest of the bunch freeze in their position. But the biggest reaction came from Sabrina, who kept looking at me with widened eyes for stopping the powerful attack of an Origin level 7. Her eyes narrowing as she looked at me.

"Guess we all have a lot to deal with, don't we?"

I said with a smile and waved my hand at the members in front of me. The soldier elves in question didn't even get to mutter a word as all of them soon broke into particles and floated away with the wind. No screams, no cries or shouts, they all just died and became one with the world. A reaction of using my destruction energy in great power.

A chilling silence fell between me and Sabrina as she kept looking between the powerful soldiers that turned to dust and then me. Her eyes seemingly not being able to tell what the hell is going on. Even for the powerful mind of Sabrina, everything that is happening would look like a fairy tale come to life.

"Cat got your tongue?"

I asked as I made a throne made of ice and sat on it. Sabrina turned to look at me as she asked.

"What are you?"

"Now that is a long story that can't easily be explained."

I replied as I leaned onto the ice throne, creating one for Sabrina as she took a seat in the throne. Her eyes looking at me calculating yet extremely weary now.

"How powerful are you?"

She asked, to which I replied.

"Is that how you speak to a guy that just saved you?"

"Saved me from the situation he kept me in?"

She shot back.

"Touche."

I replied as I started to speak.

"What we are in is a historic world, one belonging to the elven warrior that is being celebrated right now within the outside world."

This response of mine didn't seem to satisfy Sabrina as she asked.

"Just how strong are you?"

"If you are as smart as you think you are, then I think you will be able to find the answers to it yourself, for I am not removing the enigma around me."

This answer of mine made Sabrina shut her mouth. Her eyes being closed as she started to take deep breaths. As she did so, the mana around the place started to tremble around her, seemingly being sucked into her mind, swirling around to calm her down. Seconds later, she opened her eyes, their focus on me as she asked.

"Tell me everything in a clear concise manner."

'Hiding her fear of me behind her eyes, while not fearing to command me even with all the powers that I have shown her.'

I laughed internally at the situation. To others, this might be a show of arrogance and pride, while a part of it is. The truth is that even in the past situation if the situation had become very dire, Sabrina has the means to deal with it on her own too. But more than that, her eyes were always focused on me, showing no fear at the soldiers.

For she knew that I am not an idiot, and since I came here, I must have ways to deal with the danger and protect her at the same time. Knowing her intellect, she must even have left behind some sort of scheme to bring me problems even before she followed me on this journey of mine. Making sure that even if she doesn't return, I would face its consequences.

"In simpler terms, the woman in question this Historic world belongs to will have answers to some of the questions you are asking yourself."

I spoke to which she asked.

"Answers that you, yourself have?"

"Indeed."

I replied as I smiled, one that is surely bringing some annoyance to the stunningly beautiful woman in front of me.

"So what do we need to do now?"

She asked to which I replied.

"I don't know."

"Um?"

Is all she replied, while giving me a disbelieving look. She seemingly not believing the reply I gave her. Seeing so, I waved my hands in surrender as I spoke.

"I am not omniscient, you know, and you should damn well know that getting the complete information about a historic world is not easy. Such level of information won't exist. All anyone will get is the bits and pieces to enter the historic word."

My reply calmed Sabrina down as she asked.

"Let me guess the condition to activate is an elf to be with you?"

I smiled at her words as I spoke.

"The condition is to have the mana of a high elf of royal blood, being mixed into the flower Elerium Blossoms as it floated to the fountain while dropping the access key inside."

"The coin?"

Sabrina asked to which I nodded my head. This made Sabrina thoughtful, her eyes looking around the entire place till she asked.

"Do you have a detailed report of this legend fallen here?"

To this, I threw a file to Sabrina's hand, her eyes not missing the fact that I accessed my storage ring, something she isn't able to do at all. But all she did at that was to snort and to start reading the file that I threw her. One having all the minimal information she would need. Well, that is all the information any normal person shall be able to have anyway.

Within seconds, Sabrina read the file, her eyes closing down while her mind surely played around with all the information. And after a few seconds, she opened her eyes again, their focus on me with a narrowed slit as she spoke.

"You cunning..."

"What? Can't complete the words?"

I teased as I saw a smile filling Sabrina's face. The very document I gave Sabrina is more than enough to bring her 'fun'. And this is to show that I have already filled the condition of Sabrina having fun because for her, finding anything new about me is fun, and I surely filled that criteria now itself.

"This woman sounds like a hero that would have been saved into the garden of the heroes of Elves, yet she doesn't exist in any record that I have read."

Sabrina's words were both a question and realization to herself.

"Sounds like you are already a fan."

I replied.

"Aren't you?"

Sabrina asked me as she pointed at the file, the wordings in the file showing off an elven woman who tried to fight against the indiscriminate killing of other species and tried to protect life all as one. And during my explanations, I also made sure to always show respect when I spoke of the legendary figure. This all being simple hints for Sabrina to use at me.

"I never said I wasn't."

I replied as I stood up from the ice throne. Sabrina standing up with me as the thrones simply melted away. Our eyes meeting the entire lands as Sabrina asked me.

"What's the plan?"

"The first would be to find ourselves a way to get complete control over our mana."

"You also don't have full control?"

Sabrina asked in a skeptical tone to which I spoke with a wry smile.

"The previous attack of mine cannot be said not due to my own very strength but let's say due to a situation."

The place here is completely laced with extremely pure mana battling impure corrupting mana, which means that it's near impossible to have full control over our mana here. Which would mean that the two of us have to be careful of how we utilize our mana.

"Don't take in too much mana, there is a chance of you being corrupted."

These words of mine brought a serious look to Sabrina's face as she looked around. During that time, I took a bracelet and threw it to Sabrina, who looked at me with a questioning gaze.

"A disguise bracelet, you can scan a person and make yourself look like them."

I spoke.
