Chapter 369

"You are not going anywhere until I say so"

Sabrina said with a smile, seeing so Austin shook his head and under her disbelieving eyes the plant that was wrapped around him started to shrivel and soon be turned to dust, she didn't even get to react before which a punch landed on her face sending her cras.h.i.+ng to the walls, causing cracks to spread across the walls,

"I really don't like slimy stuff sticky to me"

Austin said as his body heated up and got rid of any unwanted substance in his body. Just as he was looking at the crater hundreds of vines burst down from the ground aiming to kill him, sadly it all turned to nothing coming close to him,

"It's not nice to punch a lady"

An angry voice sounded out from the dust and cracks,

"Says who?"??e??e???v?l.???

Austin asked. Thousands of plants of several forms started to hit upon him, while several spells each grander than the next was aimed at him but all of them just as before faded away to nothing, not even getting close to him. Austin stood there with his hands in his pocket with a calm smile as he spoke,

"Stop this, no matter what you do, you can't harm me, plus I am not your enemy here, someone with your intellect can understand that"

There wasn't any response for some time, it was only a minute later did he see Sabrina or more appropriately 7 different Sabrina's appeared in front of him, all of them now looking at him with increased vigilance,

"Speak"

All of them spoke at the same time,

"Your arrogance even now baffles me"

Austin said as he shook his head, along with it he snapped his hand, an invisible wave spread around and 6 among the 7 broke into ash while the real one split blood out of her mouth as she fell into the ground, her aura becoming weaker,

"Cough...what are you?"

She asked through her pain, Austin smiled mysteriously to it as he replied,

"To the current you, an indispensable ally"

His words spread around, as a light green wave spread from his body towards Sabrina, who watched with shocked eyes as all her artifacts and treasure were easily penetrated by the green light, quickly entering her body but against her expectations, all the injuries that she suffered till now quickly healed.

Even the ones she thought couldn't be healed were quickly healed, making her feel awed for a moment, she knew her body better than anybody else and she knew that she was just fluttering through death's door,

"Feeling better?"

Sabrina was quickly broken out of her thoughts by Austin's voice, who was now standing in front of her with a calm smile on his face, his whole actions pointed out that everything was in his control,

"Much better"

Sabrina replied, she stood up dusting herself a bit, her long elven ears perking up a bit as she eyes Austin with interest,

"Why help me?"

She directly asked,

"I have my reasons"

He replied,

"Need my help?"

She asked,

"Yes, it will be more of a transaction"

He spoke, his words making her more relaxed, knowing that it's a transaction means that there's a motive, Sabrina knows better than anyone that there's no free meal, she's much more relaxed when she knows that the situation is a deal.

"Okay, though I have to say that you have hidden yourself very deep Austin"

She said with a meaningful smile as her intelligent eyes lit up in question, someone as smart as her always is attracted to mysterious, the more harder it is the greater their curiosity would burn to find an answer,

"Everyone has one or more secrets"

Austin replied shrugging his shoulder, after looking at her one more time he started to walk toward the door, his eyes more focused on the pattern rather than the beauty in front of him,

"Emily is really playing out of her control to try to get you"

Sabrina spoke with narrowed eyes,

"Goy a problem?"

He asked as his eyes were kept on the door, moving through each and every pattern,

"While she's quite the handful, she's still my best friend, I won't stand for it if you plan on hurting her"

Sabrina said, her expression much more focused, though hearing it Austin did smile internally, happy that some of the actions he took made good changes, if it was the game Sabina she would have without an hesitation sacrificed Emily for her goals, though the main part for such darkness within Sabrina was due to that inheritance choosing her, the very thing those people want,

"Sigh.....as much as I am touched by your friends.h.i.+p, you can relax, I have no interest in harming Emily in any manner"

Austin spoke,

"Then why do you pretend that you don't see her feelings?"

Sabrina asked not backing down,

"I have someone I loved....."

Austin said his voice containing a hint of sadness that cannot be hidden, those words caused Sabrina to turn silent,

"I don't think I am capable of loving another"

He continued causing Sabrina to ask back,

"Why don't you reject Emily then?"

This caused Austin to turn towards her and look at her with a raised eyebrow seemingly asking is she's stupid, this p.i.s.sed her off but she held herself as Sabrina also seemed to have figured out that her question is actually stupid,

"You should know that she won't stop, it's useless"

He said with a sarcastic voice, making Sabrina's lips twitch, though she couldn't focus on her anger for long as Austin's hands started to move towards the symbols floating in the door, and he placed his hand on them as he started to move each symbol with perception and control,

"If you are really annoyed by it, why don't the two of us come up with a plan on making Emily to stop loving me"

His words paused Sabrina a bit, a sense of hesitation filling her, she thought about it for a bit as she spoke,

"We will talk about that later, first tell me, what am I? why do I go through all that?"

This time her voice was a pitch higher than before, clearly, this information is highly important to her, from what she saw till now she understood that Austin seems to have a great inkling of what she is, an information the whole of the Elven dynasty is unable to find,

"I can't tell you"

"Tell Me NOW!"

Sabrina heavily reacted to Austin's suggestion, her face turning red, all her life she was searching for an answer, and now that it was in front of her she was denied of it? Sabrina's just an inch away from exploding with anger. Hearing her outburst Austin stopped moving his hands, his head turned towards her, his eyes peering into those beautiful emerald eyes that were shaking.

Austin raised his right hand as it went towards her face, seemingly going to hold her chin as support but against all expectation Austin moved forward and caught her nose pinching and turning it, causing Sabrina to yelp and back away,

"You!"

She shouted pointing her hands towards him, while Austin just scoffed,

"Don't play those cards at me, I know how smart you are, and I know better that you are no weak woman, so please don't try to insult my intelligence"

His words caused Sabrina to turn silent after which her expression turned calm, she nodded her head,

"You are right sorry for that"

She said with a smile but Austin didn't buy it as he focused back at the door, his hands moving the symbols around, while Sabrina looked at him with interest.

While all this was happening a certain extremely cute green-haired half-elf was looking at her tracker and plans with an annoyed expression,

"Just where the h.e.l.l is he?"

She spoke out with an irritated voice, the special tracker she placed on him after extensively paying one of the maids that worked at Austin's mansion was fluctuating, her plans had all hinged on finding Austin first,

"I am not giving up now"

She said as her eyes flashed, behind her lay the bodies of several dead people, some students and some unknown.
