The Conquerors Path

Chapter 577-Plans In Motion.

”You want to take down Angelina?”

Olivia asked with raised brows, her head on my shoulder, her naked body pressed against me, as her hands drew circles on my chest, a faint blush on her cheeks, while satisfaction and happiness oozed out of her as she lay on me.

”No, I want to teach her a lesson for trying to mess with my people,”

I responded with a smile as I placed a kiss on Oliviaʼs head, her body relaxing as she hugged me.

”Looks like you too are having a tough time...”

I spoke.

”Donʼt mention it...”

Olivia replied with an annoyed tone, to which I asked.

”Need help?”

”Not for now...”

She responded as she took a sip of my lips, her contentment leaking out of her mouth as she spoke.

”My mother will come soon.”

”How long do we have?”

I asked.

”Just a few days...”

Olivia replied, to which I turned silent. If I play it right, I might be able to settle everything well within a few days. After all, once Lora lands here, my focus will be on keeping her happy and filling her up because I have been pushing that back for some time, and I am not sure Lora will be able to hold herself back anymore.

”So what do you need me to do?”

Olivia asked, keeping her body pressed against me.

”Just some backup....”

I replied as a sly smile came up on my face.

...

”You finally remember about us?”

Marlene asked with a smile, her presence much bigger than before. I can say that she has increased her strength in a very huge manner. By now, she should have digested all the knowledge and experiences she got from the illusion, thus making her presence more commanding and calculative.

”Donʼt be hard on him, Austin must have gone through a lot...”

Catherine joined with a calm tone as she lightly rubbed my hand. Both Marlene and Catherine sat on both my sides, with Catherine being a little extra touchy, which was making me ʼawkward,ʼ and I clearly spoke it.

”Um... isnʼt there more space in the room?”

I asked.

”Yes.” x2

The two of them replied at the same time, their expressions seemingly asking why I was even talking about this.

”Ah... never mind, I came here to ask for both of your help.”

”What do you need?”

Marlene directly asked, beating Catherine to the punch, thus making Catherine pout as I replied.

”Angelina, that woman messed with my people, and now I want to put her in her place. I also want to use this chance to show all those rearing beasts that I am not one to be messed with...”

My voice was strong and powerful as I spoke, which earned me smiles from both Marlene and Catherine. Marlene spoke.

”I can help, but whatʼs the plan?”

”Simple, we attack her on all sides and leave her with nothing to bite back on.”

I replied, my plan smoothly flowing from my mouth. The plan itself was quite useful to Marleneʼs faction. The two of them kept nodding their heads at my plan, their eyes twinkling. While Catherineʼs hold on my hand became a bit tight, as Marlene spoke.

”The planʼs good, but after this, I might need some help from you to clear out some trash that has been bothering me from within my faction.”

”That will be my pleasure...”

I replied.

”Good, then itʼs a date...”

Marlene spoke with a smile, her eyes directed towards Catherine, who blinked back at Marlene before focusing her gaze back on me as she spoke.

”Austin, can I also ask for your help?”

”What is it?”

I asked.

”Well, you see there are some problems for me back home, some siblings trying to mess with me. So on this coming Academy visit to the sea, can you come to my home and help me deal with it?”

To her words, I replied with a smile.

”Of course, I am always happy to help a friend...”

At my reply, I felt the temperature around the room get lighter as Marlene spoke.

”Catherine, why donʼt I help you with that?”

”But as the next princess, you canʼt get into the politics of my family easily. I donʼt want to hurt your position, Marlene.”

Catherine replied with an innocent tone, her voice quite pitiful, if it wasnʼt for the victory smile that she was giving Marlene.

ʼIs it me, or is it getting hot in here?ʼ

As the two of them gave each other the stink eye, I sat in between them like a rock, playing the classic dumb protagonist move of not making a move, just letting the flow go like a basic beta MC, because for now, I canʼt get into the fight. While itʼs clear to see that these two have feelings for me, even though I am still in a relationship with Olivia.

Thus, Olivia will play as my perfect cover for these two, keeping them at bay from openly confessing or trying to make big moves with me. For that, I will play any beta MC I have to because I canʼt let things get too messed up.

”I donʼt mind getting some problems on me...”

Marlene spoke.

”But as your friend, how can I let your position be hurt, right Austin?”

As she asked this, she turned to her side, only to see me out of her embrace and near the door, slowly escaping from the girlʼs fight. Seeing that I was caught, I flashed them a smile as I spoke.

”Why donʼt the two of you reach an agreement and tell me?”

With that, I ran out of the room.

ʼNow that was a perfect beta play...ʼ

Giving myself a pat on the back, I quickly got out of the area of Marleneʼs faction. Right now, all the people I spoke to will be on the move, which gives me time to start my play.

ʼFirst step, show crushing power...ʼ

As the leader, shouldnʼt I show the other geniuses what I am made of?

....

The Next Day:

”Austin!... Austin!... Austin!...”

The cry of support filled my ears as I stood in the center of the Colosseum, all of the students around me as they chanted my name for victory. Well, all of them are doing it due to the very reason that I am now up against the so-called newcomers to the academy. Hence all the older present students fully supported me in this battle.

No doubt all of them want to see me pummel the others to the ground. My eyes traveled through the gathering, the supporting students having the presence of several female members holding supporting words for me. Normally, the males would resent me for this, but at this moment, they all just want me to put down the arrogance of the newcomers.

”You are as arrogant as the rumors say...”

Spoke of a guy with butterfly-like wings behind him, his skin color being purple, with four eyes and two bug-like antennae growing from his head. He looked humanoid and even quite handsome with all his features on him. His name was Brax, a guy belonging to the Krees organization, their special half-features on display.

ʼTheir mind attacks are quite deadly...ʼ

The members are more mutant-like bugs, still human but with special features of their form, half-mixing. The past of how they came to be is quite gory, to say the least, but their main attack ranges from hitting the mind with special mental attacks. Itʼs very deadly and extremely hard to fight against.

This bastard Brax, in question, has been winning battles and has earned himself a very powerful name in here, has taken the top rankings, and is keeping himself in power. But the main reason that I called him up here is to beat the shit out of him for annoying Elda too much, he is just among those transfixed by Eldaʼs beauty and grace.

”Donʼt worry, brother-in-law, I wonʼt beat you up too much...”

Brax bragged, but I paid no heed to it as I looked at the rest of the members. There are a total of five, including Brax. Another one was a human male from the war council, and funnily enough, the guy was Renardo, the very guy being in the position for a spot sale, the one I beat into the ground when I first visited the War council.

eyed me, a nod leaving him as he spoke.

”I shall take Lady Elda to be mine...”

ʼSure, buddy, whatever keeps you going...ʼ

Taking my focus off him, I looked at the only girl in the group, the reason I took her for the challenge was because she had a very dirty mouth.

”What are you looking at? Never seen a prettier girl before?”

My eyes scanned the girl who spoke, a beautiful dwarf woman who had a passion for battle, her athletic form illuminated by a shaft of light. She wore a sexy battle gym outfit that left little to the imagination. Her sports bra, made of leather and chainmail, hugged her torso, revealing the defined curves of her chest. The tight pants she wore were snug and tailored, accentuating the powerful muscles of her legs.

My gaze was drawn to her midriff, where her eight-pack abs glistened with a sheen of sweat. Each muscle seemed to have a story of its own, a testament to her dedication to combat training. I couldnʼt help but admire the way her body moved, graceful and yet filled with raw power.

Her skin, bronzed with the touch of grey from countless hours under the sun, had a hint of battle scars, a testament to her experiences on the battlefield. Her hair, a fiery auburn, tumbled down her back in loose waves as if it couldnʼt be tamed. A pair of piercing emerald eyes watched her every move, always alert and ready for action.

As she swung her battle axe with precision and strength, I could feel the sexual tension in the place building.

ʼAnother version of Nyla but with a very dirty mouth...ʼ

The girlʼs name is Krisly, has been shooting her mouth off for some time and I really want to beat her up, plus I have another motive for taking her down, she belongs to Terafom, and her brother will be ʼHe looks well and about...ʼ

He stood there beside Brax, seemingly as if above the world as he very useful.
