“As long as Astaria Skyfall is alive, no man, who does not have the Skyfall Blood running through his veins, would be able to rule the Skyfall Kingdom.”
Amaya declared.
“…”
Hearing her words, Nux turned silent.
Actually, after all these clues, he had already guessed that there was someone stronger than a King Stage Cultivator protecting the Skyfall Kingdom from behind the scenes.
And to be honest, he was confident that he could defeat him/her.
It was pretty logical to think that way as well.
Nux wasn’t a normal cultivator, unlike others, who only do Mana Cultivation, he cultivates both Body and Mana at the same time, so technically, he is twice as strong as a normal cultivator who is at the same stage as him.
When he was a Beginner Stage Cultivator, he could defeat Advance Stage Cultivators, when he was an Advance Stage Cultivator, he could defeat Master Stage Cultivators.
This cycle continued till now when he is a Grand Master Stage Cultivator and could easily destroy any Expert Stage Cultivator.
It wouldn’t have been a problem for him to defeat a King Stage Cultivator after he becomes an Expert Stage Cultivator and… he thought the same goes for an Emperor Stage Cultivator as well.
He just needed to be a King Stage Cultivator and boom, it’s done.
However, with How Amaya was talking, Nux realized that the Emperor Stage was not as simple as any other cultivation stage and logically, she was correct.
It’s called the peak of cultivation for a reason.
Nux had a feeling that defeating an Emperor Stage Cultivator while being a King Stage Cultivator won’t be very easy.
No, not easy, it might even be impossible, therefore…
He needed to think of other ways.
What other ways?
He doesn’t know.
However, that doesn’t mean Amaya doesn’t. She has to know something, she is the leader of the Thousand Information Chamber after all.
“There has to be another way right?” Nux questioned as he glanced at Amaya.
“I told you, only an Emperor can fight an Emperor.
You will need the support of another kingdom if you want to rule over the Skyfall Kingdom, however, I will tell you this now, getting the support of another kingdom just means that you will become a puppet.
Nothing else, nothing more.”
“…”
Nux turned silent and started thinking.
Amaya observed his face with an expressionless face.
Nobody knew what she was thinking.
“She has to have some weakness right? Something I can use in my favour. There has to be.”
Nux still wasn’t willing to give up.
Not like this.
Amaya continued looking at him with no change in her expressionless face; Nux didn’t back down either and started back into her abyss-like dark eyes.
“Arvina Skyfall.”
Suddenly, Amaya said a name.
“Huh?” Nux frowned.
A smile then appeared on Amaya’s expressionless face as she muttered,
“Arvina Skyfall, the Vice Headmaster of the Royal Academy.”
“What about her?” Nux’s frown deepened.
If it was any other time, he would be happy to learn more about a woman, especially if her name ends with Skyfall.
However, right now, he wasn’t in the mood.
Right now, he was confused and… a little tensed.
“Even I don’t know much about Astaria Skyfall.
She is someone who protects the Kingdom in secret, even though she is very strong, there is no way information about her will be out in the open.
Actually, other than the King, no one knows much about her at all.
Except for one person,
And that is Arvina Skyfall,”
Nux’s frown disappeared and he started getting an idea about what Amaya was trying to say, however soon, his frown reappeared and he questioned.
“Even you don’t know much about Astaria Skyfall, then how does Arvina Skyfall know about her?”
“Including me, there are a total of two ‘unclaimed trophies’ in the King’s Royal Harem.
Arvina Skyfall is the other one.
When I heard about it, I started researching more about Arvina Skyfall and found that she does not have any type of curse on her, in fact, she is a perfectly healthy woman who can have a baby whenever she wants.
However, despite that, the king doesn’t touch her.
There is no way that horny bastard is going to hold back just because a woman doesn’t want to spend time with him, he has had many women who were against spending a night with him, however, he was the king, and he had the power, he forced himself upon the woman.
Some of the Royal Concubines have even taken their own lives since they were ‘defiled’ by the man they hated.
Of course, that didn’t end well, angered since he lost his trophies, the king executed their families, nobles or not, no one was spared.
This was King’s warning to all the women in this world.
After becoming his, even killing themselves wasn’t an option, of course, if you are prepared to see your family dying with you, then do whatever you want.”
“Sounds like a jerk,” Nux commented.
“Well, he is,” Amaya nodded.
“Not that you are any different, laying your hands on other man’s wives, and that man is the King of the Kingdom to boot. You really have some balls, don’t you?” She teased.
A small smile appeared on Nux’s face as he replied,
“You will see my balls soon enough,”
Then, he brought his face close to hers and whispered,
“And I promise you will love it~”
Amaya’s face turned a little red, she quickly backed off and realised that they were getting off-topic.
“So, back to what I was saying,
There is no way someone like the King would not touch ‘his’ woman. There has to be a reason why he didn’t do anything, and this reason should be strong enough to stop the King of the Kingdom.
How many reasons do you think there are that are strong enough to help a woman avoid a horny bastard, a horny bastard who is also the man who has the strongest influence in this country?”
Amaya questioned.
“None.” Nux shook his head,
Then, a small smile appeared on his face as he muttered,
“Except for one.
The Dowager.”
