Chapter 726: Chapter 725-Rewards Of Poison.

"I have never felt more satisfied in my life before..."

Carmel murmured as she rubbed her belly, her eyes like a hunter still focused on me. I"m pretty sure that any chance she gets from now on, she"ll try to get me to cook for her. With a smile, I focused on Tria, who kept a smile on her face as she looked at me. G.o.d knows what kind of thoughts are going through her mind right now.

"Well, soon it would be G.o.d and me."

Though the thoughts would only flow to me at uneven intervals, and it can"t be controlled, I will still take that over being able to read nothing from her. Regressors, by nature, are extremely distrusting and calculating; they will be even more wary of variables they didn"t see in their future and don"t have knowledge of at all.

Hence, it will take a lot of control, sight, and focus from me to be able to keep track of her. It won"t be simple at all. The best moment to take advantage would be at the beginning when they are weakened and confused because I can"t tell what kind of abilities, skills, or some other s.h.i.t she might have that could screw me over.

The only good thing is that the normal surveillance I keep on my girls will be able to be kept with her because even a Dragon can"t find the connection there, and it"s not something she will be able to see. Even if by my own miscalculation she ends up finding out about it, there is no way for it to track back to me. At least of that, I have made sure.

While the cooking utensils were being set up, I searched through the shop application of the system, my eyes finally landed on the one thing I thought wouldn"t have to be used much by me at all.

Item: The Turbulator.

Description: An amazing item that will be ingested and marked within a living organism allows the user to get uncontrolled and unexpected thoughts of the victim.

-->This is a small serum-like substance that is tasteless and can be added to any substance to be ingested by the victim. Once ingested and digested, the liquid will sweep into the body of the victim, imprinting itself into the body and soon will fall into the mind.

-->This will then send signals to the one whose blood was mixed into it on creation. This is a failed item that couldn"t achieve its final objective and was shelved by a mad ugly scientist who wanted to be the ultimate playboy by getting to read the minds of women. Sadly, even with this low-level function, reading the minds of women even at unwanted intervals didn"t help the scientist at all.

-->It"s virtually intractable as it, in a sense, doesn"t cause any harm to the user and has the useless function of just getting unwanted thoughts or irregular thoughts to the user.

-->If strengthened, the user will be able to hear the thoughts from distances away, but in normal situations, the person should be close by to get the irregular thoughts heard.

Hidden Function: Yet to be activated.

Cost: 1,00,00,000

"Sniff... my points."

My heart wrenched a bit as I looked at the price once again, my whole body feeling the hurt from this loss. An item I had virtually abandoned and thought was useless was in front of me now, already used. In a way, it was useless indeed when I first saw it, but in this current situation, any thoughts this regressor could have will point me in a direction that will be extremely useful to me.

"But the price..."

[Why are you crying about it? Don"t you have more points?]

"Why are you acting like you don"t know the heaven and h.e.l.l I went through to collect them?" The points of affection were years of my own hard work and planning. Seeing it go hurt me, but for now, it"s important. There are several other things I could have used, but all of them had their own risks. Everything I had used to infect, to create, or to control, in a way, the victim, or in these cases, the girls, knew about it since the enemy had put it on them.

And even then, I would make sure that the item I used in question would be removed before they left me, to make sure that there wouldn"t be any lasting ways they could find out the effects of it, even the hidden ones won"t last for long. So I needed to be creative in how I do this, especially towards a regressor who has lived a life that is full of questions to me.

This is the option for the long term, and in a way, there is a hidden function in the serum that I have given her. If I can create the story I want, perhaps I will be able to play with this regressor in the palm of my hand. It"s due to the hidden function in it that it costs this much f.u.c.king more.

So just as we were drinking our small drink for better digestion, the woman who had first greeted us slowly walked into the garden as she looked at me and spoke.

"The Emperor would like to meet you and perhaps even gift you for saving his daughter"s life."

She spoke to which I turned to look at Carmel, her expression was not that good, but she hid it well. Seeing me look at her, she nodded back at me.

"Let"s go, we will meet him together."

To this, I looked at the maid as I spoke.

"Lead the way."

With that, we began to walk through the palace, with Carmel by my side and Tria walking on the other, her expression turning neutral, but the little micro-expression I was able to pick up by running my mind at high power proved that she holds an extreme amount of hate and disgust for the Emperor, which matches the path in the normal way of the game.

Soon we entered into a much more luxurious area of the palace, with the warriors around showing a large amount of strength, the whole security and powered aura around the place being stifling as we kept walking through a large pathway. Soon, we stopped at a huge door that slowly started to open, my eyes first landing on a beautiful black and silver throne kept above in height on which a man sat.

The man having looks similar to Carmel, being very handsome, with black hair and dark black eyes, his long hair left like a mane as he arrogantly looked down from his seat. Around I could see some powerful warriors keeping an eye on us, while next to the Emperor sat a stunningly beautiful woman, who is the current Empress.

Her eyes stayed neutral when she saw us walk in, but for a moment, I saw the hostility that burned in her eyes as she met Carmel. The maid stood outside as I, along with the girls, reached the bottom of the throne. The Emperor had quite a powerful aura, with him being at the Origin level 9, showing that he was talented.

"But the internal structure is a mess from all the debauchery he lives through."

As I thought so, the Emperor, with a smile, spoke.

"So you are the current world-renowned Austin Lionheart, the son of that man, the grandson

of the demon of war, and currently hailed as a hero around the academy and slowly now

through the world?"

To his grand introduction, I maintained a smile and replied.

"Indeed, it"s nice to meet the moon that covers the darkness of the Emperor, lighting everything in the night."

My intro being the normal style in which it happens, the man with a bit more linear smile, turned to look at his daughter. His expression did not change much as he saw that she was okay as he turned to look at me and spoke.

"You have saved my daughter, kept my other daughter, the next Empress safe while you traveled for the antidote, so I would like to give you a reward. Go on, what do you need?"

His gaze focused on me as he asked so, to which I met his eyes, my mind reeling through some information as I finally spoke.

"I wish for my master Eleanor to be able to meet Carmel again."

My words hung in the air, while the atmosphere got darker, the whole event feeling like a rumble as the man looked at me, the Emperor"s power rolling out as he tried to suppress me.

"Guess his infatuation with my master still exists."

I mused as his pressure tried to suppress me, trying to make my knees buckle but I kept my focus on him as Carmel turned to act but she was suppressed too, the eyes of the man seemingly holding a certain humiliating past as he tried to crush me but I kept my eyes as I

spoke.
