<h1>Chapter 887 Chapter 885-Too Innocent.</h1>Chapter 887  Chapter 885-Too Innocent.'My mixed desires are indeed quite troublesome'I mused at that thought, already coming to understand something, something deeper than which many could even come to understand. I could see the potential in the heart of the woman named Eleanara. In the beginning of my plans, it was more to use the level of her inner rivalry towards Valdris, to turn this into something sexual which would grant me control over her.But that would be too wasteful for my plans for the future, and even above that, a part of me wants to do this differently. The idea of my order keeps pumping into my mind that a more thoroughly well-developed Eleanara, out of her shell, will be more useful than just a puppet, which has come to my side marching towards corruption that wants to deal with my desires and those of Eleanara's.All of them swirling within me, to which I found a middle ground. I still plan on using the strategy I had before with Valdris's rivalry, but I also plan to supplement it by adding a bit of my own thoughts and ideals into it, something which will be the best of the two, everything that will come to satisfy my corruption and my order, and in the process perhaps help resolve some undefeated pains of the heart.'But I don't want to fully use my corruption for it'Call it a sense of instinct on my side. I had come up and won over by controlling and manipulating my way through with the girls long before I even had such powers. I had to be creative, study them in depth, understand all about them, before which I would be able to create a plan that would help me get them, and I kind of miss that in my life.After getting such powers, everything started to become more bland. Me controlling them like this isn't totally my style, and even beyond that, my instincts are screaming at me that I can't just keep bulldozing my way through things using just manipulation. Sure, it helps me in the short run, but along the long way, I would just like to have the same characteristics of the people around me without me having to change them all.There are a lot of ways I could deal with things, and my divinity is at the highest order, but there still lies a bit of unresolved power in me which matches towards manipulation, a subtle power in me to manipulate my situations around things. And now, having reached the divine, I have that small spark matching towards the ranks of manipulation which I want to use to get what I really want, and I want to develop that manipulation.This means I can't just brute-force everything. I need to first use my normal planning methods, create real-life situations, and truly play with all the emotions around me. If I want to grow that divinity, I must first be able to pull the real strings.'And it eases me now since I can get more information than ever before'My eyes narrowed a bit at that thought. Using a bit of corruption isn't out of the question, but I will only be using that in order to pull out the real conflicting emotions in the heart of Eleanara. From what I came to understand, she is really prideful, and while any kind of true love has faded in her heart towards her husband, she isn't one to just go around cheating on him. Such a situation is below her pride and her character.But for me to be successful in what I want to do, I would need to first get really close to her. I mean, close, close. And for that, hitting at the most darkest memories hidden in her heart is the best way to go about it. Once I hit that center, I will have the epiphany to work on, and even then, I would have to be very careful on how I take this.Without fully using my corruption to just turn her mad, I would have to use real skills and acting, just like the first days. This wouldn't just be paramount to rising the divinity of manipulation, but it will also be very helpful in growing even my side of corruption, achieving true change in someone, bringing out their true selves and desires without real push will be the best way to go about getting and growing myself with my divinities.'And it will also be a test for myself to grow'As those thoughts filled my mind, I focused on the beautiful dwarven regal woman in front of me, one that settled for less just for the reason to hide behind these glorified walls, so that she wouldn't have to face the mistakes of her past. Sadly for her, I am about to bring those mistakes right to her, to her face, and she will have no other way than to face the mistakes she made.My mind then flashed with the thoughts of a certain legacy I had found and certain secrets which would in the long run make it the more effective for me. I have already devised the way in which I will be taking this forward, and since I am not pushing my way through this with divinity, then the only way to take this forward is with time, using timing to make sure that all of it would come together quite nicely.'Now, let's see what move you will make'I inwardly smiled as I thought of such.......Third Person POV:'This boy...'Eleanara thought, her eyes focusing on this pure formation of a young man in her life, her eyes trailing for a moment towards the ring in her hand, one that was confirming to her that each word being laid out from the mouth of the young man was the truth, one she has been using for a long time to truly rule over this palace.There might be some ways to beat it, but that would be impossible to happen without Eleanara knowing about it. The other way would be for the young man to be even more powerful than an Imperial, which was out of the question. But even without that, she could tell that this young man in front of her was actually being genuine.She could feel it from his aura as Austin revealed himself to her, his aura covering over her, that innocent aura, that smile, all of them matching towards a certain memory in her heart. For a moment, the edges of Eleanara's heart twitched, her heart beating faster as memories she didn't want to remember came flooding into her.The smile of the young man in front of her soon coming to fade over with that of a young dwarf she knew in the past, her mind flashing towards a level of the past she doesn't want to remember, the time she and her friend set off into the world, their innocence of that time now looking like the worst naivety there is.Eleanara shook her head, trying her best to break out of the daze she came to. It was a point in time that changed everything for her, her whole life turning upside down. Eleanara tried her best to keep her mind cooled down, her gaze containing a certain sparkling fondness as it looked at the light smile on the face of the young man in front of her.'Why does he look so similar to me?'Eleanara tried her best to let her whole life run away from this thought, this widening call in her that kept reminding her of what she had done. Her heart had grown cold; she had given up on ever trying to feel that 'goodness' in her. Now she just lives away, locked in this void place, far away from what can be considered a normal life.Eleanara knows that she had run away from her responsibilities, and she is quite fine about it. Now she just wants to peacefully have everything slip away from her, to just go in that gaze of the life she has built, kept now looking at that will and mind of the young man in front of her. The will to just live away got shaken for a moment.Eleanara saw herself in that young man, the drive from that far along, the one to bring goodness into the world, to not walk that dark path the others had walked. She and her friends had promised each other to create that better world, yet what remains of it? Just betrayals, sadness, and now she lay in that darkness just as the others did, useless and broken.Eleanara had dipped herself into that life she never thought she would fall into, and she had found herself content living that way. But now it seems something wasn't as easy as she thought it to be. Eleanara's eyes wavered as she looked at Austin. From behind her, she could feel the worried gaze of her best friend."You will fail and be broken"The words escaped the mouth of Eleanara before she could even think about them, her mind being stunned as she looked at the surprised expression of the young man in front of her, one that was coming to look so much like her, one that had knocked on the doors of the past she never wanted to visit again."I was always willing to bear that burden"Austin replied with a smile, irritating Eleanara to no end.
