187 I am not planning to call him.
“Are you the lover Allura had been going out with behind the King’s back?”
Amaya questioned and Nux’s eyes widened in surprise.
“Haha~ From your reaction, it looks like I am right.” Amaya then chuckled.
Nux’s eyes widened even more when he realized what had just happened.
What Amaya said was just a guess!
She wasn’t sure about it!
However, she questioned it so convincingly that he thought that she already knew about it and reacted in a way he shouldn’t have.
‘W-What the hell? Why is dealing with her so difficult?’
Nux wondered in surprise.
He then noticed that Amaya was observing him with a small smile on her face, it was as if she was enjoying his reactions.
And for some reason, Nux did not like that gaze at all.
However, instead of being angry, Nux calmed down.
Then, after taking a deep breath, Nux questioned. pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ.ᴄᴏᴍ
“How did you know?”
“You must have already heard what I was saying before, didn’t you?”
pᴀɴᴅᴀ-ɴoᴠᴇʟ Nux decided to be honest and nodded.
“As I said, Edda and Allura were a little too close than normal. Then, after Edda disappeared and the whole spy thing that continued after that, one thing bugged me.
Edda, Alger, Edrea, and Algerama, the main players of this incident were mentioned, however, no one mentioned Allura, who was unusually close to Edda. Neither did the concubine herself step forward.
Something felt wrong.
I then started reading Allura’s logs and noticed that last week, she left the Royal Palace 2 times. An irregular behaviour.
Of course, this was not enough to suspect her, however, ‘coincidently’ the day Allura left the Royal Palace, was the day Edda disappeared and everything happened.
Not only that but this time, Allura didn’t stop anywhere, in particular, she just rode in her carriage for a few hours and returned. Another irregular behaviour.
This was suspicious in my book.
I kept my eyes on her for 2 days and although I didn’t notice something weird, I felt something was wrong.
She was unusually quiet. pᴀɴᴅᴀ ɴoᴠᴇʟ
Then, I sent a spy to spy on Allura and the Spy I sent returned with a pale face and was acting weirdly.
This could not be a coincidence anymore.
Something was wrong with Allura for sure.”
Amaya replied.
However, Nux just furrowed his brows and questioned.
“But that doesn’t explain how you knew why I and Allura were lovers.”
“Well, that was just a guess. You have to be very skilled if you can roam around the Royal Palace and appear behind a Grand Master Stage cultivator like that. Making you a subordinate shouldn’t be easy.
Therefore I assumed you were the boss.
As for your relation with Allura, well, lovers was the first thing that came to my mind and luckily, I was right.”
Amaya answered.
“You are an intelligent woman indeed.” Nux nodded.
“Thank you for the compliment.” Amaya smiled. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀꪶ
Then, a small smile appeared on Nux’s face as he commented,
“However, you aren’t as intelligent as I thought you would be.”
“Hmm?” Amaya frowned.
“If I were you, I wouldn’t tell anything to someone who just barged into my room without me noticing, I would be warier and I would be on guard.
What if I don’t like the fact that you know my secret and decide to silence you?” Nux questioned with a smile.
Amaya, however, wasn’t intimidated, a similar smile appeared on her face as she questioned back.
“Do you know who I am? I am the Concubine of the Skyfall Kingdom.”
“Or in other words, you are a Trophy.” Nux mocked.
Amaya however, shook her head, “I am an ‘unclaimed trophy’, and the king values me the lot.”
“Oh? But are you sure you want the king to know that you are the leader of the Thousand Information Chamber?” Nux questioned.
“Huh?” Amaya frowned.
She then glanced at Nux for a while and then, she questioned.
“Do you really think the King doesn’t know about it already?”
“Huh?” This time, Nux frowned.
“Aren’t you from the Enemy kingdom? Why would the King not do anything if he knew you are the leader of the Thousand Information Chamber?”
Amaya chuckled and then, she answered,
“As I said, I am an ‘unclaimed trophy’, the king values me a lot. Therefore he allows me to do everything I want. He treats this as a child’s play.”
“But what if you send important information to the Kingdom Of Skadi?”
“The king knows I won’t do it and to be honest, even if I do, he probably wouldn’t care. That is just how he is.” Amaya answered.
Nux started thinking.
Amaya observed Nux’s face and she muttered,
“The Royal Palace is a lot scarier place than you think it is. Actually, I am surprised that you can roam here for so long and still be alive.”
Nux glanced at Amaya and understood what she wanted to say.
She wanted to warn him.
And Nux was planning to take this warning seriously.
Maybe he underestimated the Kingdom.
Maybe he got a little too arrogant.
He needs to slow down.
Of course, now that he is here, he won’t go back without gaining anything.
A small smile appeared on his face and he questioned.
“So are you planning to call the King? Do you think you can survive till the King comes here? Let me tell you, if you are thinking of depending on this trash, then you will be disappointed.
It would be an achievement for him to resist me for 3 seconds.”
Kelton’s face twitched when he heard Nux’s words, however, for some reason, he believed him.
This man appeared behind him and he wasn’t able to notice it.
What is stopping this man from beheading him?
Actually, even he was wondering why Lady Amaya was telling everything to this man, she is usually cold and aloof and doesn’t talk to anyone.
Why is she talking so much with this man?
Suddenly, Amaya muttered.
“Well, actually, I am not planning to call the King.”
