The Conquerors Path

Chapter 415 Not Dead....

The feeling of space wrapping around me disappeared as I opened my eyes. Looking around, I was back at the same place I left from, the gate behind me seemingly trembling and dimming away. As the fresh air and mana of this world filled my nose, the tranquility of peace filled my being, though that didn't last for long.

"What the!"

"How!"

"Brother!"

"Why?!"

The confused screams soon filled my ears as I looked around. The ones who fought with me in the city had incredulous eyes as they gazed around. Around them was the very student presumed to be dead!

That's right, everyone who should have been killed at the special realm was all around them. Unlike us, who arrived and looked dirty and beaten up, these guys looked relaxed and well-rested but they were detained in reality.

Not only that, but the cloaked figure that had entered illegally hadn't returned to the same spot they entered from, resulting in all of them appearing right alongside us in the open.

Soon the atmosphere of surprise settled down and the chaos bloomed.

"You bastard!"

"I will kill you!"

"Thank God you're all right."

"Sister!"

The cries and shouts of anger, relief, sadness, and regret all started to build around everyone as the most concerned ones moved forward to hug their fellow friends, lover, and relatives. But they weren't allowed to move forward as Mira appeared once again, this time accompanied by several powerful well-known teachers and staff.

I could even see my mother along with them. But unlike her natural smiling self, she had a very rare serious look on her face. But the moment her eyes landed on me, I could see her sighing in relief and smiling. The same expression bloomed when she looked at Nora.
"Begin," Mira spoke, and the teachers and staff moved, attacking with pinpoint perception certain students. The innocent ones close to them moved away while the imposters who took on the identity were quickly apprehended along with the traitors. With the skill level of the staff of Babylon, the enemy wasn't even able to put up a good fight before being subdued.

Many tried to take their life quickly as they understood that everything was a trap from the beginning. But they didn't even get the chance. With Mira here and mana flowing through all, they couldn't take their life even if they wanted to.

Seeing this scene, I stayed calm as I looked through everyone gathered here today. My eye fell on Marlene, who was holding her brother by his neck. It seems he survived, though the cost of that is going to be a world of pain. My eyes arrived on those that I killed back at the realm saving Marlene. I could see them trembling in their place.

Actually, every traitor alive was trembling in their place. They might now even be regretting being left alive. After all, the traitors didn't just arise from just Marlene's or Sabrina's faction. Everyone had one, the ones being worst for Angelina, Isabella, and Ron, as I didn't try to help them that much.

For the rest, I did give them some secret help so that they won't be hurt too much. Even then, they had traitors.

'Ugh, he's gonna wish he could die'" I muttered as I looked at the elven ring holder who had tried to attack Sabrina, now tied up and held by her, his face completely beaten up and looking like he was on the edge of death.

'You seem to like your gift,' I spoke into her mind, and I could see her flinch for a moment before her eyes flashed towards my location.

'I will repay this favor,' Sabrina told me before focusing back on the carnage taking place. All those cloaked figures were taken down; they couldn't resist the combined might of all the Babylon staff, especially with an extremely powerful Imperial present. From the beginning, this was just a brutal culling.

Within 10 minutes, everyone was subdued, the staff having detained all of them. None of them died, but several lost a limb or two. Among the brutal fighters was my mother, who made sure to take out her frustration and anger. Gotta say, she looked kinda hot in her battle gear.

'Maybe I can ask her to wear that for a play?' I wandered off as the atmosphere around me had gotten completely bad. The entire place was steaming like something was about to explode. It was then that I heard Amon speak.

"Master."

"Looks like it was a success," I said as I looked into his eyes. Previously, they were always burning with anger, but now I could see that a large part of it was satisfied. The anger still existed, but it was more controlled and calm.

"I had fun," Amon said in a calm tone. Seeing this, I flashed towards Amon's target. Seeing their faces, I just nodded my head. All of his targets looked like their inner selves had died, their eyes completely hollow and lifeless. Sure, you won't die, but there are other ways to kill a person than just murdering them.

"Don't worry, this is just the start," I said as I patted Amon's shoulder.

"So, how did it go?" I asked Mark, who was standing beside me. His cold characteristic face looked completely disinterested in what was going on around him.

"I have accomplished the task," Mark replied. Hearing this, I smiled. I looked at all the chaos that was spewing beside me; the anger, hate, and sadness were contagious, and the mood was completely ruined.

'Is this the outside world?' suddenly Farah asked.

'Yes,' I replied.

'How is it?' I asked.

'Normal,' she replied.

'Well, you will be having a lot of fun soon,' I said. Saying so, I started to focus on Mira who was starting to speak.

"Students! I know you all are confused, but everything will be told to you in due time, so for now, get rest and deal with all the situations you have to," Mira said. Saying so, she vanished while her voice filled my head.

'Come meet me,' she added.

I just nodded at her words as my eyes turned towards a certain place as I met Scarlet's eyes. I was the only one here able to perceive her. Seeing so, I nodded my head and mouthed the words, "I am fine; we will meet later." Seemingly understanding it, she nodded her head and disappeared. My focus then turned toward my friends as I spoke to them.

"We will have a briefing later on, but for now, rest, especially you Alex. If I see you awake, I will hit you to sleep," I said.

Everyone nodded their heads at my words, especially Alex, who looked like a mummy. Using his newly gained powers like that had seemingly taken a great toll on him, but with the potion I gave him, he would be up and running in no time.

Soon everyone started to disperse. My eyes then landed on the beastmen along with their prince Raze and Nell, the two of them having ugly expressions. How couldn't they when the majority of their force was now taken down?

The entire trust that the others had in them is broken and their plan of taking down future leaders is flushed down the toilet. The resources they spent to bribe others have also gone down the toilet. So many resources were wasted, and all they got in return were problems. Their future was surely looking rocky.

Taking my focus off him, I then focused on Bale, someone else that I have to keep an eye on. I shook my head as it can wait. I have a cute aunt waiting, after all. Soon I looked after my faction and fulfilled some words before I headed off to meet Mira. I gave some assuring words to Grace before I 14:58

moved. Nobody else tried to talk to me as everyone was busy with their task. A super high-level attack had taken place within Babylon Academy, and there's going to be a lot of noise due to it.

'For now, that's not my problem.'

Chuckling at all my thoughts, I walked through the chaos at a steady pace. All those that took part in the fight within the city gave me either a nod of respect or thanks as they stepped aside. Now thinking along the lines, I didn't really save their lives, but it wouldn't change the fact that we all fought with our lives on the line back then, and I could already see the results.

Lots of different species seemed to have gotten closer, and I even detected some new couples forming from all the life-and-death battles. Smiling to myself, I moved away as I headed to the Dean's office.


After all, I have an aunt to tease~
