The Dungeon Conquerors: Journey to the Peak

Chapter 96: Ch 96: Anneshia's Past (2)

The bigshots used their big intelligent brains to come up with a perfect idea. They needed to do everything possible to weaken Anneshia as much as possible. Only then they would have the chance to hurt her badly with their powerful individuals.

The first method used against her was poison. At first they sacrificed a noble family to use a super deadly poison on her. But even that extremely deadly poison was not able to make her a little sick and nothing more.

And that little sickness went away immediately after she used one Cocoon Break and she also gained poison resistance from this whole experiment.

She then interrogated the family and was even able to find a slight clue about a higher up who was actually responsible for this. She then did her own little investigation and that ended up with the destruction of a notable family.

So this whole little experiment did bring any good results to them and instead ended up benefitting Anneshia. And the loss of a decently powerful family from the alliance was also a painful loss.

After this incident, the people planning behind her back became even more cautious. They did not have any intention to strengthen her anymore. So the next step of action that they were going to take was going to be a full proof plan that could definitely kill Anneshia.

...

But even though the big shots were hatching a bigger perfect plan, that did not stop their bootlickers to hatch some plot of their own. One such amazing bootlicker was count Daminger from a neighbouring nation.

He thought that it would be a very good idea if he could get his hands on some people with whom Anneshia had some emotional connection with. He wanted to use them as hostages to force Anneshia to do their bidding or at least make her to hesitate in critical situations.

That was a decent plan for a villain. The effectiveness of this plan was proven in many lady incidents and even though this plan was not useful in getting rid of Anneshia, it could be used in case of emergency circumstances when they needed to run away from her.

In that case those people could be used as hostages.

The plan was good and all but the people who were expecting this plan were not. They made a stupid mistake of becoming overconfident and underestimating their target. That allowed one little girl to run away from them and she also acted like an intelligent girl and informed Anneshia about it.

She was quite fond of this girl's family. She was helped by them when she had not found any place to live for a night and they were genuinely kind and good people. That was why she had very favourable feelings about them.

So obviously when she heard that they were targeted by someone she went to help them.

Those people who were hired by the count to do the kidnapping turned out to be even more of a fool as after doing the kidnapping, instead of running away as soon as possible, they were resting in a bar while celebrating their successful operation.

They had not even noticed that one fish was able to avoid the net. That obviously made Anneshia's job to be way easier and quickly caught those men and from them learned about their employer, count Daminger.

Anneshia was never a person who liked to compromise, so she went to the neighbouring nation and gave this family a harsh warning.

And did not wipe them out as she did not want to create international problems but still what she did was enough to make this whole family fearful and other families who had the same intention also got a loud and clear warning.

After this incident, everything was calm with Anneshia's life for a few months but then the bigshots finally made their move after they were done with all the preparations.

Anneshia had no idea that something this big was happening behind her back as she was not a person who tried to gather much information. She was also a very simple minded person.

That was why, when her own mother invited her for a tea party in a private villa away from the city, she did not suspect anything and was actually quite happy about it. But after reaching that place what she got was betrayal from her own blood related family.

First her mother poisoned her with a very powerful paralyzing poison. She then went even a step further and used the dead body of her recent baby as a catalyst to put a powerful curse on Anneshia.

After that 11 super powerful people from Anneshia's own nation and from some of the neighbouring nations attacked her immediately. They showed no hesitation or mercy and immediately used their strongest attacks.

They knew that Anneshia was capable of recovering from these problems with her special ability, so they wanted to keep her busy to not allow her to be successful in activating this ability. Only then they would be able to get some damage done to her health.

The people who attacked her were all veteran fighters with a lot of experience and their powers were also very impressive. So everyone had a very high expectation for them that they would be able to put up a decent amount of fight against Anneshia.

But it turned out that they had still underestimated Anneshia's prowess. Not only she did not have a hard time defeating all the men who came after her, she was able to finish this battle in just ten minutes or so.

After this incident, it became clear to Anneshia that her family was trying to get rid of her.

This was a very sad truth for her. She had always loved her family and she never had any intention to bring any trouble to them. But in return what her family had done was to stab her on the back and tried to kill her off. That was very depressing for her.

Anneshia was mentally very mature from a very young age, so it was hard for her to remember when she had last cried. But not anymore as tears welled up in her eyes and she cried like a little baby for the very first time after she had become able to think for herself.

But just being sad and depressed was not Anneshia's style. She did entertain the thought of just going away from here and to live her life in a place further away from here. There no one would know about her powers and she would be able to live a normal life. That was a good plan all things considered.

But when Anneshia tried to finalize this plan, something very deep in her heart stopped her. She was repulsed by this idea of running away like some depressed loser. So, she finally chose to confront her problems from the front and decided to fight back against the world itself if she needed to.

That's how Anneshia became a true loner in this world after losing her family.
