The Conquerors Path-Novel

Within an hour Sabrina had dominated the entire forest, all the participants had their bands removed and made unconscious, the plant life around them tightly wrapped up around as if they were their inmates, Sabrina's eyes flashed towards the points in her hand.

Total Points: 130,000

A number that clearly meant that the win is her, yet not a single bit of happiness was seen on Sabrina's face, her eyebrows were already made into a frown, how could she feel happy when even till now hasn't even got an inkling of Austin's position?

'Where is he?'

She didn't let her anxiety get her, her mind was calm while she analyzed everything she has at hand, her wounded pride refusing the fact that even when their power levels are similar and she throwing in a small cheat she was still lesser than Austin.

She had lived with a great sense of security in her heart, knowing that her mind and her talent are above several, yet here she was, struggling to find the endpoint or even the beginning of where the hell Austin is.

More the time ticked more of Sabrina's instincts were screaming at her that things ain't how they seem.

'Just what am I missing?'

She asked herself, though the poor Sabrina would have never imagined the fact that the so-called oath on the creation Goddess is completely useless o Austin, that itself is a crazy thought she refuses to even birth in her mind.

"Comer out Austin I know that you are here"

She called out in a calm tone, playing her bluff, which she knows is closer to the truth, connecting everything she saw till now gave her the idea that Austin is a very prideful person, much more than the pride one should have for being the successor of Eleanor, its something much higher than that and Sabrina know that ones with such pride love to make it hard and interesting.

As much as she hates to admit it, it's a fact that her powers are unable to track Austin but the moment he shows himself the entire forest will move to take him down, of that she's sure.

"Oh, I didn't think that you are such a coward~"

She called out to his pride and any man worth his pride won't be able to hold himself back, her vigilante's eyes started to see around the entire area.

"Ouch, isn't that some threatening words~"

The whispers of Austin were heard from her back causing several vines and thorns to arise behind her while her sword flew back yet turning around nothing can be seen, not a single person.

"Nice moves~"

The teasing words were heard again this time from her right though Sabrina didn't move or take any action, even with just one action from Austin she understood that he was playing with her.

"Aren't you a man? face me then!"

Once again she aimed at his masculine ego, hoping to incite a more angry reaction from him, just a small slip up, that's all she needs to entrap him at his own game. The forest turned silent and no reply was given but Sabrina keenly felt the change in the atmosphere, her body got tense waiting for the destined attack yet all she got was.

"Puff!...what the hell was that! 'face me then!' are you in some acting class? please woman, I know you better than that"

Those were simple words but it was more than enough to show Sabrina that he won't be falling for any cheap tricks.

"Sigh... let's end this, I am bored...."

Austin spoke again, hearing it Sabrina stayed silent while her vigilance was now at max, she knew an attack was coming, the entire forest stayed in focus, her breathing turned calm, and a dark light started to shine within Sabrina's eyes.

And then the attack arrived and it was an attack alright. Sabrina felt a sudden force and well that was all she felt as her mind shut down and she fainted. It was an attack on her neck, perfectly focused to take her down.

Her heightened mind didn't feel the attack, all the barrier around her wasn't even able to hold back the attack for a second, the forest plans set in the motion to make a reaction didn't have any reaction, how could they when they were all under his control?

"She will definitely be throwing a tantrum when she wakes up, right?"

He asked as some vines started to crawl over his body and wave at his words, Austin focused on the bands and he took them, instantly raising his points.

Total Points: 230,000

'Looks like I win'

Thinking so he willed the plants around as they wrapped around Sabrina and started injecting her with some sedative, enough to keep her under for the next 2 hours, seeing that all was well, he created a chair of plants as he sat on it, leaning in tightly he took out a book and started to read it while enjoying the light breeze, though that didn't last for long.

.....

Austin POV:

'Can't I get some peace?'

I asked myself, as I looked around, just as I started to read the book, a white light flashed around me and now I am here, in a small closed room, the plant chair blow me, while against me sat a beautiful woman with a divine aura around her, an aura that I have only felt around Orpheus and Razellia, though the one around the woman in front of him is lower than Orpheus and Razellia.

"What can I do for the Goddess of Games And Fun?"

I asked, already knowing who she is, on the lower spectrum, her position and power are severely lower than Orpheus or Razellia. The woman has black hair and shining Yellow eyes with a cube rotating within her pupils, two antler-like horns grew out of her head, while her body is more on the petite side, looking much more like a teenager.

"Nothing, I just wanted to know more about the one child that overthrow and caused chaos across the Heavenly realm with just his presence"

The Goddess said as she kept eyeing me upside down, looking at me like I am some sort of special bizarre creature,

"What should I call you?"

I asked, making her look at me in a zooming manner, it was only a few seconds later did she speak.

"My name is Lala"

She said with a smile.

"Can all Gods easily pull me whenever they want to?"

I asked.

"Nope, every god in the Heavenly realm is interested in you but they can't just pull you in, not with Orpheus and Razellia hauling over you"

She said, making me nod my head.

"So the game is your domain and I got in because you have control over it?"

I asked, already knowing that the whole game plane is just a small time pass game made by the Goddess, she has several such games spread across the World, it's just a small gaming enjoyment for her.

"Right! you are really smart!"

She said, her voice is eerily similar to the same voice that held the game.

"Cookies?"

"Thanks"

I said taking one and, starting to chew on it.

"How's Razellia?"

I asked, this brought a small wince to Lala's face, making her bring out a bitter smile.

"Hehe.....she's still fuming at the fact that she can't meet you for now, her anger is really quite hard to control"

She said.

"I can imagine that"

I said chuckling.
