The Conquerors Path

Chapter 254-Hero Playing In The Devils Hands

”Austin is with them?!”

Leonardo replied, astonishment and disbelief filling his voice, he couldnʼt believe that Austin was such a person, from all that he was he understood that Austin was a gentleman, he risked his life to get rid of corruption and is known to be the only one capable of dealing with it, Leonard himself agreed that he was a bit jealous of him.

Austin seemed to have everything in the world, beautiful and caring family, looks to kill for, a talent that outshines the rest, and confidence that puts down others, Leonardo himself had to agree that even he felt a little inferior in front of Austin, Leonardo dreamed to become someone like him but now things were a bit different,

”Yes, we highly suspect....no we know that heʼs part of the dark side”

”Can you explain?”

Leonardo asked reigning in his heavily beating heart, if the world got of such information it would definitely be shaken, the leading figure of the current era belonged to the dark! this news will definitely hit the top, thinking of this deep in his heart a hint of joy bloomed, he knew that was bad, yet he couldnʼt hold himself back.

All this while he thought that Austin was a godly figure, nothing imperfect but now knowing the truth, some sort of anxiety in his heart settled, moreover his heart started beating faster at the thought of Elda, whom he fell in love with, at first sight, something about her was drawing him in, just her smiling was making Leonardoʼs heart beat faster.

Her innocent aura was the icing on the cake, making him want to desire her more but he wasnʼt good at any of the love related stuff, plus Elda seems to have no interest in anyone, thereʼs also the rumor that she would only accept anyone that beat Austin, this was also another reason why Leonardo tried to improve himself.

He had seen Austinʼs fight with three princes, it was total domination and Leonard knew that he hadnʼt reached such a level but now knowing this he felt like he had another chance,

ʼMaybe we could go closer when she joins the Illuminati?ʼ

Leonardo fantasized, meanwhile ʼBarleyʼ in front of him was staring at him with a thin smile, his intentions completely hidden, he couldnʼt read Leonardoʼs thoughts but having heard his happy outburst he could understand some things, seeing that Leonardo was happy at taking him down, he no longer has any hesitation, he would make this so-called protagonist suffer,

”Here, this is some of the information we could gather about him, heʼs quite clear all we got about him are speculations”

Leonard coming out of his daydream took the file, as he read through it, ʼBarleyʼ started to speak,

”As you can see there was a rumor surrounding him, it was said that Austin didnʼt have any talent and that he was kicked out from the house, this while not true has some truth in it”

”What do you mean?”

”Well you see he wasnʼt kicked out but he ran away from home, he couldnʼt bear the shame that he had no talent, this was something we verified”

Hearing this Leonardoʼs eyes widened, he could see that the speculations were true, watching Leonardoʼs expression, ʼBarleyʼ continued,

”So isnʼt it quite suspicious that he came back this strong?”

”It is but wasnʼt he capable of dealing with corruption? doesnʼt it make him more reliable?”

Leonard asked, quickly catching onto suspicious hints and ʼBarleyʼ smiled and nodded,

”Thatʼs right but think like this, doesnʼt this make him less suspicious? with such power who would think that he was capable of joining such a disdainful group? his powers are the perfect alibi”

”I see...”

Leonardo nodded her head, his belief that Austin was not good increasing by the second and thatʼs when it hit him,

”Wait doesnʼt this mean that Elda is in more danger than ever?”

”No, from what we could tell kidnapping Elda isnʼt Austinʼs mission, he is after al their ʼbestʼ product, the dark side will have something more heinous for him to do”

”Then shouldnʼt we take action now?”

”No, we donʼt have enough proof, you should know which family Austin belongs to right? without ironclad proof, the Lionheart family will raise blood”

”Yeah, Iʼm sorry I didnʼt think that far”

”No problem, youʼre still young, you have time to grow”

ʼBarleyʼ spoke with a natural smile, making Leonardo feel more at ease but then his eyes furrowed as he asked,

”But is Austin that heartless to give up his own sister?”

”Why donʼt you read the file and understand more”

Hearing it Leonardo dived back into the book and a minute later he slammed at the table, his eyes reddened,

”That disgusting bastard! I didnʼt take him to be such a vile creature, he must be killed!”

Leonardo spoke with a cracking voice, disgust and disbelief filling his voice, the information was about how Austin would kidnap women rape them, and take their power for themselves, by now the number of women that had lost their chastity to Austin was beyond count he was just a sex fiend!

”Calm down, this was all we could salvage but after we get all the correct information we could take this demon down!”

ʼBarleyʼ roared with ʼdisgustʼ and ʼhateʼ, Leonardo then nodded his head,

”To think I once admired him looks like my eyes were blind”

”Donʼt worry, everyone did fall under his charm, itʼs normal”

It was then that Leonardoʼs head lit up, yes! all of them were being fooled by Austin!, suddenly he remembered all the powerful people that respect him, all those students that follow him and suddenly he felt a burning desire to protect them from this vile evil,

ʼI must subtly start dividing his friends from himʼ

Leonardo decided, his disgust for Austin just growing,

”Sigh.....I wish I could just punch him in the face”

”Donʼt we all but for greater justice patience is needed”

ʼBarleyʼ spoke with a friendly smile,

”Speaking of which, are you a student here?”

”Yes but donʼt look for me, in the light we donʼt know each other, got it?”

”Yes”

Leonardo nodded his head and just then a serious expression came on ʼBarleyʼsʼ face as he spoke,

”Speaking of this, if Austin ever asks you if youʼre close to someone just completely close him down”

”Why?”

”He might target you, after all the holders of the legendary weapons are a threat to them, and knowing his status I am sure that he knows about you, and from what you read, you could tell what kind of person he is, right?”

”Yes, I canʼt help but feel disgusted thinking about it”

”So, be careful if he ever asks that you are close to anyone, especially girls, completely react like they donʼt mean anything to you, by now he must know that you have an honest character so hearing youʼre outburst he will lose his motivation”

”I understand, I will be careful”

”Good, then sign this”

Saying so ʼBarleyʼ forwarded a contract,

”Whatʼs this?”

”A death contract”

”Why?”

Leonardo asked his eyes widening, ʼBarleyʼ showed a ʼbitterʼ smile as he spoke,

”Donʼt worry thereʼs nothing that will harm you, this is just a precaution so that even if you are caught no information would ever be leaked, I am sure that you will join in the future, so itʼs better to get rid of the issue now”

Leonardo stayed silent as he started to read through the document, the Claus was simple if he starts to tell the truth about Illuminati he dies, thatʼs all but it was pretty brutal, but just then he heard Durandalʼs voice,

ʼSign itʼ

ʼWhy?ʼ

ʼWhat he said was right, you will definitely join this place in the future, plus this is quite normal, after all, there is never true loyalty, only true benefitsʼ

Hearing Durnadalʼs words Leonardo stayed silent, finally, after a minute he signed it and as he did a black thread rose from the contract and filled his body, soon he could feel a connection with the contract,

”All good?”

ʼBarleyʼ asked,

”Yes”

”Good then, hereʼs youʼre first mission, itʼs simple and I am sure that you will do well”

Saying so ʼBarleyʼ forward the information about Leonardoʼs mission, watching him go through his mission seriously, ʼbarleyʼ smiled in happiness,

ʼWelcome to my net, little preyʼ.
