The Conquerors Path-Chapter 622-The Truth......

"My name is Sabrina but may I ask where the boy who came with me is?"

Sabrina asked as she looked at Elerium, who was smiling at her with a gentle adult-like smile as she spoke.

"Oh? The boy broke through the illusion spell faster than you, got what he came for, and left, he is waiting for you outside."

Her words made Sabrina frown at the thought of losing to Austin again, the prospect of her coming last, of not being able to differentiate between a mere illusion of sleep with her superior mind being a hard hit on her pride. But Sabrina learned to control her annoyance for now as she looked at Elerium.

"Can you tell me what's wrong with me?"

To Sabrina, what mattered to her now was the answer to this question, one that had been plaguing her for a long time and one that was driving her mad to know the answer to. To her question, the smile on Elerium faltered, but remembering what would happen if she didn't go with the flow, she relented as she spoke.

"Now, I myself don't have the full story of how it all began, but what you are going through is a curse from the past, a time cut out from history for the royal family of Evatador."

Hearing these words, Sabrina frowned, her mind churning through at hyperspeed at the warning in front of her. The royal family name of Sabrina is Mammon Galen Delon, the one that is said to have survived the wars before to form the greatest Elven Empire, now said to be the strongest Empire in the world.

Yet the name Evatador doesn't even ring a bell for Sabrina within all the past records that she had read. Seeing the confusion in Sabrina, Elerium continued.

"That is the name of your family before it was changed. As you know, there existed several royal lineages during the past, ones leading different types of Elven royalties, yet it would seem that only yours seemed to have survived till the end...."

As Elerium spoke her last words, true sadness seemed to envelop her as she took a sip of her tea, her mind turning calm for a moment as she started to continue to speak of information she had little interest speaking about but was forced to make some changes on.

"The Evatadors were a powerful royal lineage of the past, ones said to have one of the highest connection and closeness to nature, said to be loved by the fairies and one of the favorites of the Goddess Orpheus."

As the last of Elerium's words sounded out, pure fascination filled Elerium's eyes. For a moment, those fascinated eyes looked toward a particular direction, after which she focused back at Sabrina, continuing to speak to Sabrina whose eyes were getting more and more clouded.

"Take my words with salt, for I don't have the full story. But from what I heard, the Evatador family committed an unforgivable action of aggression during the war, one going against the very nature of life. They dabbled in necromancy, the thing I am not sure about is how things got till there."

These wordings made Sabrina frown, looking at Elerium with an accusing gaze as she spoke.

"The whispers of necromancy were all pure whispers. No proof of it exists....."

To this, just a thin smile took over Elerium as she replied.

"After understanding the secrecy of history, can you truly believe everything is as told?"

This question reeled back to Sabrina as she started to circulate with extreme surprise in her heart. Yet, Sabrina quickly gained herself, her mind now needing to know of the information more and seeing so, Elerium gave Sabrina an appreciative nod as she continued.

"I don't know if this is true or not, but the said actions of the Evatador family seemed to have gained great power yet a curse. It was all stopped by a large powerful group coming together and putting an end to it all, but in the end, in the final moments of death, a sense of lunacy took place, and the remaining powerful necromancy-made member of the Evatador placed a curse of resurrection before she vanished."

These wordings of Elerium shook Sabrina to the core, the understanding of the past of her family highly cracking the amazing pride and love she has come to cultivate for her royal family, which she had believed to lead to the resurgence of the elven lineage after the great war that almost destroyed everything.

Seeing the hyperventilating Sabrina, Elerium placed her hand on her forehead, slowly pressuring down the emotions flowing through her as Elerium spoke.

"Calm down. The sins of the past don't dictate the future. The family of the past isn't the current family, for your family has done everything in its power to regain the elven honor. And perhaps if it wasn't for the legacy of your family, the whole elven lineage must have ended up getting lost."

The wordings of Elerium cooling down Sabrina, the magic also playing its part as Sabrina's mind started to work in full throttle at giving her hope. While the past must have been bad, the current Sabrina has seen with her own eyes the happiness and prosperity that her people are enjoying under her family's care.

Within moments, Sabrina seemed to have reeled herself in, her mind calming herself down as she looked at Elerium and asked with a suspicious tone.

"How do you know all this when you have just said to hear it all?"

"As I said, the truth of the Evatador family accepting necromancy is something that I just heard, and I don't know if they did it by their own will or were forced. But at the ending battle to kill the last one called the necromancy Queen, I participated in it, and I was there when she said her last prayers of curse to resurrect in the future."

The ending of Elerium's words painted a gruesome picture for Sabrina as her eyes started to tremble, her mind reaching at a conclusion as she spoke.

"D-Don't tell me, am I?"

"Yes, the curse seemed to have awakened in you. The gruesome things of the past and the gift you so-call hate have been placed on you such that you may be driven to the greatest of darkness. So, at the ripe time, the greatest tragedy befalls you and your mind is corrupt, the necromancy queen will come and take over your body."

The words of Elerium only furthered to make Sabrina lose her mind, her breaths getting harder, her mind feeling like jelly, her body feeling cold. The prospect that she herself might be a pawn that might destroy her family made her body feel cold all over. And Elerium let such thoughts cloud Sabrina's mind for a few seconds after which she spoke.

"Haa...I knew I was cursed, but I didn't think it would be this much. Guess I really should have died then in place of my mother...."

Sabrina muttered with a dark voice. While the news itself seemed to be heavy, she has gone through far too much to just easily break again.

"But I wouldn't be all too afraid. It would seem that the boy Austin would rather go to hell and back than see you finally be taken over...."

"Um....?"

These words brought a great quake to Sabrina's mind as she looked at Elerium with an inquisitive gaze, her mind already seemingly closing around her, but Elerium held it for her. Plus, Sabrina had grown to make her mind stronger, to not let herself fall into the control of the past. Seeing Sabrina listening, Elerium leaned onto her chair with a smile as she spoke.

"To be truthful, I planned on killing you the moment I saw you. For us, the members who took part in the purge had thought we had ended the entire Evatador bloodline, but it seems we were wrong. And seeing the powerful curse growing in you, I wished to end you, to keep the world safe. Yet the boy proved me wrong."

The first wordings of Elerium made Sabrina's body turn cold, the sharp killing intent that Elerium released being more than enough to make Sabrina's body tremble. Yet the last of her words seemed to only confuse Sabrina more as she looked at Elerium with a confusing gaze, a chuckle leaving Elerium as she saw the look.

"To be truthful, the moment he broke out of the dream, he spoke to me all about the good that the new royal family has done, about how you all kept the royal lineage safe. He also pointed towards all the darkness you had to go through to be someone of pride, and above all, he told me of the crazy plans he wishes to do to save you."

"To save me?"

Sabrina asked with a confused gaze, looking at the smiling Elerium.
