The Conquerors Path

"You have to be more careful"

I spoke, with a gentle tone as I passed on a kerchief to Nathalia, who took it with a shy smile as she wiped off some of the blood on her lips,

"I am sorry, its just-just that I-I get really nervous around bo-boys"

Nathalia spoke, her three eyes drooping downwards in a sad frown,

"Don't worry about it, my sister already spoke to me about your issue, just that fact that you are here now with me alone is a huge blessing"

"That's because you make me feel safe....."

Natalia's whispering words were heard,

"What did you say?"

I asked, confused but Nathalia quickly shook her head, her purple blush dyeing her face,

"No-Nothing, I was just saying thanks....."

Nathalia quickly replied, making me chuckle on the inside due to her cuteness,

"So what is it you wanted to help with?"

I asked, bringing the main topic back on board,

"I am a creator, I thought that maybe I could help?"

"You're a creator?!"

Disbelief filled my tone as I spoke, along with a hint of awe,

"You believe me?"

Nathalia asked, to which I smiled, giving off the hints of a very reliable big brother,

"Yes, I know you and I can see that you aren't one to lie, especially a friend my sister chose"

"Thanks..."

My words brought a happy smile to her face as she started to twirl around her hair, her gesture increasing her cuteness,

"So, what's your rank?"

"Pretty high"

Nathalia cooly replied, her eyes dodging everywhere, clear signs of lying, not even my sister knows her true level, and I still haven't reached a level of love where Nathalia should completely open up to secrets, right now she's more on the curious, wanting to feel and know more side,

"That's good, your helps very timely"

Saying so I moved forward as I patted Nathalia's head but suddenly I froze, as I looked at Nathalia who too was shocked by my sudden action, a wry smile came to my face as I slowly took my hand away from her head,

"Sorry, I'm used to it that it came to me naturally"

I spoke, waving my hands to indicate that I meant no harm but I didn't get her focus as I could see that Nathalia right now is in a daze, her hand rose as she touched her head as tears started to pool in her eyes,

"Wa-Wait, what's happening?"

I asked as I moved forward slowly, so as not to cause any discomfort to her but Nathalia still kept crying and unexpectedly she jumped to my embrace clutching me tightly as her tears flew through my shirt, with her hands holding my shirt tight, seeing it I started to pat her back,

'Damn.....I am surely going to hell'

I thought, all my actions have led to now, her reaction was precisely what I wanted, a weakness I could use,

[Need me to book the deluxe seat on the train to hell?]

'What's special about it?'

[Well, at least the heat won't directly burn you to death, the pain will flow thr-]

'No thank you'

[Tsk.....no balls]

'You should know better than anyone if I have balls or not'

[Yeah...yeah, big balls]

'Um....got a nice ring to it'

I responded in my mind, still holding the shivering girl in my embrace, just how many girls have I made to cry? granted its not something I focused on them but my actions still had let them to shedding tears, by now I had learned for it not to affect me but still seeing tears caused through my actions ain't easy to see,

'Hypocrite'

Stopping myself from going down a road that I had before fallen and risen from I turned my focus to the three-eyed crying girl in my arms, it took a few minutes for the tears raining down her face to end, even then I held onto her as I kept patting on her back, making sure not to cause her too much discomfort,

"Are you better?"

I asked as I pulled her a bit away from me, looking into her eyes I could see that their edges were a bit red, indicating how hard she was crying, her fully black eyes were enchanting to look at, especially the one in the middle, that had a hint of crimson to it,

"Look at this you are a mess"

Saying so I took out a tissue and I started to wipe out the snort from her nose,

"Sniff...sniff.....I am sorry"

Nathalia spoke with a broken tone, as a hint of guilt filled her eyes as she looked at my shirt, by now she had regained a bit of her bearing,

"It's okay"

I spoke as I patted her arms lightly, her hands were still holding my shirt, since she had now regained herself, the embarrassment of what she had done settled in, as her eyes started to move around in panic,

"I-I will dry that for yo-you!"

She exclaimed as she started to use a handkerchief to wash away the tears that had now filled my chest, each of her movements was clumsy, her hands fumbling around my chest, while the blush on her face that vanished now returned in a full blow,

"Hehehe.....don't worry about it"

I told her as I chuckled, earning her ire, as she pouted,

"What's so funny?"

"Nothing, I just found you to be cute"

"Cute?!"

Hearing my words the blush deepened as a silly smile split her face,

'The plan worked'

The shy Nathalia who was scared to even touch a boy, who kept her distance and didn't open up easily was not standing close to me while trying to clean my shirt, a single move had changed the entire play, as her wariness against me had gone all-time low, that's the best thing about creating small disturbances that open the other up,

"I'm sorry"

Nathalia apologized once again but I shook my head,

"You don't have to worry about it, I was actually scared, to think you would hate my pat so much that would cry......I am really sor-"

"No that wasn't it! I actually liked it!"

Seeing that I was apologizing and agonizing over her crying. Nathalia exploded out with feelings and words, that quickly brought her more embarrassment,

"You don't hate me now?"

I asked to which I got an adamant head shake from Nathalia,

"No, I don't hate you, it's just the pat was nostalgic..."

Nathalia spoke, her eyes now facing into the past, a pain of loss filling her gaze which she quickly shook off, focusing her lost gaze onto me,

"I was happy with the pat...."

+1000 affection

She spoke as hesitation filled her eyes, her hands now clutched tightly onto my shirt again, she hadn't realized that even till now she hadn't separated from me, a pleading tone filling her voice as she asked,

"Ca-Can you pat me again?"

"You want a pat?"

I asked with confusion and I got a fairly confident nod from her, for a girl whose always shy and keeps men at arm's length this was a very hard question to ask but I smiled at her, as I nodded,

"Sure, as long as it doesn't make you sad"

Saying so I patted her head, her smooth silky hair on my hands as I familiarly rubbed her head, which brought her memories back,

'Manh.....this spell is very useful'
