Chapter 248: 244 Successfully Opening The Paths

Everyone became dead silent after General Farauld emphasized the current situation.

Although the Empire could be considered as strong, A class mages and knights were not as abundant as the fruits on a tree, which they could take whenever they wanted.

The number of A class could still be easily numbered  by the fingers across the Empire, and even with Leon being an S class mage, the number of the cursed army was still unknown.

"But Father, we can't possibly wait for the Third Prince to finish before moving." Nathan gritted his teeth, knowing how tricky the situation was.

"I know… But I am clinging to the hope that we won't have to sacrifice our men when we deal with these sinister people." General Farauld also understood where his son was coming from.

They were knights who were willing to die for the Empire and it would be too ridiculous to think that they were afraid of the idea of getting killed in battle.

But General Farauld sees things differently.

While it is an honor to die for the Empire, he had to instill to his men that fighting recklessly was pointless. They die for the Empire with the hope that the remaining people will have the means to survive and thrive again.

They do not die for blind suicide.

Moving this early without having a plan to control the situation and its aftermath was as good as leaving the Empire on its own.

"Let us wait until the sun sets tomorrow. If the two still remain in seclusion, we have no choice but to report to the Emperor and step in to interfere with the killings." General Farauld looked at everyone and declared with a grave look on his face.

"Please let the Emperor know that the Temple is willing to help in the matter too." The High Priest expressed his opinion.

The matter of the curse is a matter for the entire Prasinos. As a representative of the Temple, they had to step into the matter too.

While the matter on the Capital was in a precarious state, the situation on the training ground was slowly becoming more stable and hopeful.

"Huuuu…" Leon breathed a heavy sigh as he wiped the beads of sweat forming on his forehead.

He looked at Eli who still had her eyes closed sitting cross-legged in front of him.

Although her posture was upright, it was evident that her body was still tense because of dealing with the immense pain brought about by the kneading process.

"We finally finished the first half of your body.." Leon mumbled with a tinge of exhaustion and relief in his voice.

"I am getting used to the pain also, it's becoming more bearable the more we go through the process." Eli answered still with her eyes closed.

There was a deep frown on her face showing that she was exerting all efforts to keep her consciousness stable while dealing with the painful kneading process.

"Finishing the upper half of your body means that we have also finished integrating your receptors to your vital points. We have already gone past the critical stage of the process. Hold on a little more and we'll be done in no time." Leon positioned himself again, he just stopped momentarily to take a breather.

He embraced Eli again and continued to assist her in the kneading process.

Inserting the forceful mana again, Eli's body trembled in pain. The good thing was, compared to the first half of the process, the pain had already subsided significantly.

In just a few minutes her state of mind readjusted and focused on integrating her receptors to every cell of her lower body.

Just as Leon said, the kneading process for the lower half of her body sped up greatly. The mana thread inside her body, her receptors and the forceful mana worked visibly faster.

Finally, the last cell on her body fully integrated with her receptors!

Whooooooosh!!!

Eli, for the first time in a few days opened her eyes as a full pledged open path!

She was welcomed with an amazing sight the moment the kneading process was done.

She looked around and saw that the air around her seemed to be glowing.

Everywhere she looked, there seemed to be a speck of light dancing freely as the wind carried it.

The most amazing thing was that her body felt like she was one with the specks of light too. She looked at her hands and feet, they seemed to blend like water in the sea of light.

A very light and refreshing feeling also flowed in her entire body, as if compensating the torture and pain she just went through for who knows how long.

"Amazing feeling, isn't it? Mana is now freely being channeled on your body.." While she was confused and surprised about the phenomenon she experienced, Leon's magnetic voice rang in her ears.

"Uhnnn.." She nodded as she touched Leon's arms, which were still wrapped in her body.

Through the painful process, it was Leon's voice that gave her the strength and a great sense of comfort.  Without it, she couldn't imagine how she would be able to survive the painful process alone.

Leon leaned his head over her shoulders, resting on her little body for a while.

He brought her closer to his body and hugged her more intimately. As they were sitting cross legged all this time, Eli was now practically sitting on his lap.

But the two didn't seem to care about how ambiguous their position was at the moment.

All they could think of was the relief and the gladness they felt in their hearts because they managed to go through the adversity together.

"Congratulations on opening all your paths, my love.." Leon turned his face towards Eli's side profile.

Although their appearance was not really looking great because they have stayed like this for too long, she was still the most beautiful person in his eyes.

Eli shuddered uncontrollably as she felt Leon's gentle breath tease her neck. His sultry voice became the loveliest music on her ears. No amount of symphonies nor odes could beat the beauty of the sound created by Leon's voice calling her 'love'.

"Thank you for not giving up on me, Leon, my heart." Eli slightly leaned sideways to take a good look at Leon's face.

However, what met her was not the clear view of her love's face, but the sweet and searing kiss from his lips.

She felt her heart jump high in the air, like it was thrown into something that made her abdomen feel giddy and floating.

But the next moment, she felt her body responding affectionately. Closing her eyes and touching the side of his face ever so lightly, Eli accepted Leon's love with all her might.

Leon was now sure that Eli's lips was the most addictive taste he would never get enough of. Especially the moment her tender hands caressed his face, it felt so hot yet calming at the same time.

Afraid that Eli would feel uncomfortable with their position, he used his strong arms and positioned her in a more comfortable posture. But he didn't leave her lips for a moment.

Only when he could feel that Eli would be out of breath that he would part with her lips.

But everytime his crystal blue eyes meet her earnest obsidian eyes, he would once again taste her lips, carefully savoring it like it was the most precious delicacy that he could ever have.

It didn't take long for him to realize that his heart was beating so loud and so heavy as if it was no longer capable of containing his affections right now. However, he persisted still and wrapped Eli's body closer to his.

Caressing her back slowly, his hands wandered like a traveler exploring a land that was exclusively his.

As his hands roamed on her shoulders, to her back, down to her waist, his kiss went deeper and more aggressive.

His hands didn't stop inspecting the 'land' that was in his possession until his fingers mysteriously found its way underneath Eli's shirt.

This made Eli's mind go haywire as she was already feeling the intense heat and intimacy that they never explored before.

The moment Leon's fingers touched the surface of her skin, a wave of electricity jolted all her senses awake, bringing her almost in a delirious state!

"Nggnnn.." Subconsciously, her breath let out an amorous sound, igniting something in Leon that almost made him lose his sanity.

The hands that had intruded the restricted zone on Eli's bare skin held her tighter as he slowly bent and guided Eli to lie on the ground.

But before he was able to complete the action, he felt a gentle force pushing on his chest. He momentarily paused and realized that it was Eli's hands resting on his sturdy chest.

Confused, he looked at Eli whose eyes were now glistening like a pleading little puppy, "L-leon… we're still in the temple…"
