For a particular War Princess, it was an extremely rough day as under the influence of Noah, she experienced a slew of the hidden truth that she may have even already known, but it was now made more apparent with the life history of the Grandmaster that was very much involved in her being where she was now!
More than an hour had passed since Noah had begun playing the life history of Grandmaster Luo on the illusory screen, and Athena stood up at this moment with a blank gaze that just seemed tired.
“…what do you want?”
Her eyes seemed to have no emotions as she stared at Noah, only shaking thereafter as an overwhelming power descended around her.
“It is never about what I want, Senior Sister. It has always been about your goals. Your purpose is to establish order and balance, pointing your sword against all enemies that sow chaos. You will simply do that.”
Athena felt the overpowering essence of a Star Forging Realm individual squeezing her defenses as she deprecatingly let out a hollow laugh, realizing her Junior Brother had always been ahead of her as always!
Her tired eyes looked out to the numerous warsh.i.p.s surrounding the Realm Dreadnaught as she spoke.
“You’re planning on using my new status to destroy this huge force?”
The War Princess was still actively thinking as always, seeing Noah’s overall plan as she felt his power and irresistible red light that seemed to always be erupting from his eyes.
“Naturally, your atonement will begin there. Whatever judgment falls upon you thereafter…well, that will be your fate.”
Noah was saying this as his hands reached out towards Athena’s head, the red light in his eyes beginning to shine ever brighter as Athena felt her mind and thought becoming cloudy, her mouth moving slowly before Noah could do whatever he intended!
“You do not need to put me in any mental state…”
Noah paused at her words as the War Princess rose up while dusting the thin robe she wore.
“My new state will most likely be found out by the other Star Forgers if you do, and I most likely will not be able to carry out my role as a commander as I normally would.”
Her emotionless eyes looked towards him as a tinge of her valiancy returned, her words continuing.
“I…I also wish to look upon Vredral and ask him…If we really are the ones sowing chaos, I will stay true to my heart and seek judgment for us all.”
She looked towards him as light was gradually returning to her eyes, her gaze locking towards him with only a slight tremble!
Noah’s hands coldly moved as he initiated one of the newly gained abilities from the upgraded Terror of Aether skill tree, it was [Masterful Aether Control]!
A crackling ring of destructive Aether erupted between them, a golden light of fate going on to cover it as it turned into a thin golden line. This line went on to pierce into Athena’s chest as she felt a tinge of pain, Noah’s voice ringing out thereafter.
“That is a destructive strike of Aether veiled by the light of fate. It is currently going on to wrap around your heart, veiled from being seen by anyone other than you and me. And for even more assurance…”
Noah placed a destructive ring of Aether around Athena’s heart as he also went towards her, glistening fangs erupting from his mouth as he turned her face to the side and exposed her slender neck!
Athena’s eyes followed his as she didn’t even portray the surprise in her eyes, her gaze only watching emotionlessly as Noah’s bit into her and she felt the intrusion of a strong authority of blood that was changing her very Origin into something else!
“Ahh…”
She could have normally resisted or even put up a fight, but her mixture of mental state did no such thing as she let everything happen, her body feeling pain and pleasure she had not felt before.
Noah released his fangs as he watched the body of Athena convulsing, her blood gaining the quality of a normal Vampyre as he did not even grant her a bloodline of a Pure or Royal Vampyre, but one of the lowest ranks!
RUMBLE!
Fate Lines and Chaos Particles floated around them crazily as many shot into Noah’s body, but the essence of Fate and Chaos also descended onto Athena’s body as she gained the right to be called Noah’s subordinate, gaining the boosts of his two Guider Type Abilities!
Athena felt the change in her blood as well as the descent of a powerful essence of fate and chaos, her gaze towards Noah constantly changing as she now felt a sense of domination that she could not even say no to.
Noah then waved his hands towards her as her bloodline, any of the chaos and fate essence…everything that he wanted to be hidden and remain beneath was covered through the use of [Unique Origin] while also using <<Herald of Fate>> to cloud the fate of this being in front of him.
With this, he finally came to a stop as he stared at the War Princess who had straightened up and looked towards him emotionlessly.
“Are we done?”
She brought forth a question that seemed to contain many meanings, her eyes hiding the biggest emotion of pain she felt currently as she gazed towards Noah. She felt pain every time she stared at the cold gaze he showed towards her, at none of the warmth or teasing she was used to before! Her question seemed to be filled with double meanings as she asked whether they were done!
Noah’s luminous eyes locked toward her unshaking gaze as he only replied passively.
“I will send you telepathic messages on how to move from now on. Just be ready.”
His words were devoid of emotion as he looked at her while she nodded and replied.
“If you could please leave, I would like to prepare.”
She said these words as she looked around at the areas where they were just spending time on. On the dining table they ate on, on the bed they slept on, on the blank space where he showed an illusory screen not too long ago. She looked at all of this as she then observed the back of a man that seemed like a towering mountain to be leaving the room.
The moment Noah left the room and closed the door behind him, the War Princess within slumped to the ground as tears freely spilled from her shaking eyes!
Her body trembled as the entire belief system she had was brought down on this day, and the only person who could have even been there to comfort her was not there anymore! Her eyes shook as she realized that apart from everything else…she had no one to even hold her at a time like this.
No one!
On the other side of the door, Noah’s eyes were cold as he moved away. He felt like he had won, and yet…
