“Sister? What happened? Is something bothering you?”
Lovis questioned with a frown on his face.
“No, I am just here to talk with you.”
Evane answered with a smile on her face.
Hearing those words, Lovis’s frown deepened,
“Leo told me that you are here to talk about something important.”
‘He is indirectly saying that you aren’t just wasting my precious time to talk about random stuff right? If you are then you should leave.’
Nux translated as he continued to observe the Third Prince.

‘Huh? He’s nothing special.
Even that Candice is better than him…
Is he really the best the Skyfall Royal Family could offer?’
Nux wondered inwardly as he continued to stare at Lovis.
Sensing his gaze, Lovis turned towards Nux and saw those Golden eyes looking at him with… disdain? Lovis frowned.
“Who is he, Sister?”
He questioned.
He was indeed different than Raguel, if it was the First Prince, he would have lashed out at Nux for looking at him like that, Lovis, however, was a lot calmer.
He was affected by that gaze, that was clear, however, he didn’t show it on his face.
‘Maybe he is not that bad.’
Nux admitted.
“Ah, he is my Bodyguard.”
“Hmm? I have never seen him before…”
Lovis narrowed his eyes as he glanced at Nux.
“Didn’t you say that I came at a bad time and that First brother is getting pretty desperate? I thought that I should not depend on you much and hired him as my bodyguard.”
Evane answered.
“Is that so…”
Lovis started observing Nux more carefully, trying to pressure him with his gaze, Nux, however, completely ignored his gaze and even started yawning.
He was blatantly disrespecting Lovis, however, Lovis didn’t lose his temper and turned towards Evane.
“Why is he covering his face?”
“Well… he has some… problems with his face.”
Evane replied.
‘Indeed, being too handsome can be a problem sometimes.’
Nux agreed.
‘Oh C’mon.’
Evane shook her head and chuckled.
Lovis, however, narrowed his eyes even further and then questioned.
“Are you sure you can trust him?”
This time, before Evane could answer, Nux stepped forward.
“Yes, she can. She is not a fool, she wouldn’t have hired me if she didn’t trust me. Heck, I can even say that she trusts me more than she trusts you, someone, she hasn’t met for more than 20 years.
Who knows how much you have changed in these last 20 years.”
“Don’t go too far, little ant.”
This time, Leo couldn’t hold himself back anymore and roared in rage.
He had already brought out his dagger and was ready to attack Nux, however, before he could do that, Lovis stopped him.
Then, he glanced at Nux and smiled.
“Heh, you are brave, I will give you that. To go against me, the Third Prince of this Country with your meager status, commendable indeed.”
“Of course, that is all you guys have to say for yourself, your status, but that is understandable, you don’t have anything noteworthy apart from your status do you?”
Nux smiled lightly.
Leo tightened the grip around his dagger, he could feel it, even Lovis was about to lose control over his emotions.
Lovis, however, held himself back and turned towards Evane.
“Sister, your bodyguard is a little too disrespectful. Please tell him to leave, there is a limit to how much I can listen.”
Evane glanced at Nux and smiled inwardly,
‘See? Did you find anything suspicious? He doesn’t have that inflated ego and is even willing to let you go just because you are my bodyguard.
Do you think that he would go that far if he was just acting like he cares for me?’
Nux glanced at Lovis and this time, he couldn’t help but nod.
Evane was right, maybe he and Amaya were wrong about Lovis.
‘Continue with the Act.’
However, before he could say anything, he and Evane heard Amaya’s voice.
Evane narrowed her eyes.
‘Why now?’
‘Trust me, I can feel it.
Something is wrong here.
He is a little too calm.’
Amaya replied.
Evane glanced at Nux, and Nux nodded a little.
Evane sighed, and Nux smiled wryly.
‘Just a little more.’
Nux knew Amaya well, unlike him, she wasn’t an unreasonable person, she must have seen something if she told them to continue with this little act of theirs.
Evane then finally nodded and turned towards Lovis.
“I apologize for his behavior, Third Brother. I give you my word, he won’t say a single word from now on.”
Lovis narrowed his eyes, however, in the end, he just nodded.
“Tsk.”
Nux snorted and turned his head away.
“Have a seat.”
Evane pointed at the chair next to her.
Lovis looked at Evane and then sat on the chair Evane pointed at.
“So? What did you want to talk about, Sister?”
“The Throne.”
Evane answered in a solemn tone.
“The Throne?”
Lovis frowned.
“What do you want to talk about?”
He questioned.
“Do you remember when I told you that I am not interested in the Throne before?”
Evane questioned.
Hearing those words, Lovis’s expression changed momentarily, and then, he nodded.
“Yes, you said you have no interest in the Throne. Was that a lie?”
“Hmm? Of course not. Why would I lie to you?”
Evane replied and at that moment, all the seriousness that had appeared on Lovis’s face turned into confusion.
“Then what are you here for?”
Lovis was getting a little impatient now.
“I wa-”
Evane was about to answer, however, before she did, she turned toward Nux.
Nux nodded, then, he walked towards Leo, Lovis’s butler and,
“Come with me.”
Took him with him.
Lovis frowned, however, before he could say anything, Evane dropped the bomb.
“What if Duke Vestalis supports you in this Battle of Throne?”
