Supremacy Games

Back in Dark Deviant, Mistress Candace was still reading the emperor's memories while Felix continued making sure that he remained unconscious.

'It's been more than twenty minutes.' Felix knitted his eyebrows, 'She said it will take at best ten minutes.'

'Give it time.' Asna said, 'It's difficult to read memories of someone who lived for tens of thousands of years without a clear filter.'

When Asna used to read Felix's memories, she always needed him to be exact on the date or the place where the memory happened.

Otherwise, she would be there for a long time.

Felix did give Mistress Candace a timeframe, where he believed that the emperor must have picked the ten leaders.

But, he might be wrong since he simply made an educated guess.

This might have been causing the delay.

...

After two hours, Mistress Candace finally opened her eyes.

"Are you alright?" Felix asked after seeing that she was dripping sweat like a fountain.

"I am just a little tired." Mistress Candace wiped her forehead, "It wasn't easy process and took way longer than I anticipated."

"Did you find anything?"

"Sorry, I found only nine names and locations." She apologized, "The last name was the cause of my delay. No matter where I looked, I didn't see the emperor mention it at all."

"It can't be!" Felix was devastated by the news. Without the tenth name, it would be useless to have the other nine as well.

You either kill them all or don't bother yourself.

"It seems like this old sack of bones is still caution enough to distance himself from one of the ten leaders." Asna said, "His subordinate or family must have been responsible for picking the tenth leader without informing him."

"No, no, no, it makes no sense." Felix refused to believe it, "This greedy bastard's ego knows no bounds. There is no way he will believe that someone will capture him alive and extract memories out of him."

Emperor Rawal was one of the strongest bloodliners in the empire.

Killing him should have been impossible by another origin bloodliner in the empire, don't even mention kidnapping him alive.

That's why he wasn't able to react when Felix and Mistress Candace popped out of nowhere. It was just unthinkable in the battleground.

In real world? Maybe, because there were many mysterious figures from uncanny races. But, this was the battleground, where every origin bloodliner was known and had his abilities studied.

"Well, I don't mind looking again after a quick break." Mistress Candace offered.

"No need." Felix shook his head, "If you didn't find it in the timeframe, then it must be either outside of it or not there at all as you mentioned. In both cases, it's impossible for you to find it."

Just like Asna mentioned, without a clear filter, it would take ages to find what he desired from reading memories.
