“Is… this true?”
Nux spoke with a serious look on her face.
“She said she has the bodies with her.”
Amaya replied.
“But how is this possible?
More than 10 King Stage Cultivators died in just 5 days, and all of them died in the same way, does it even make sense?
Not to mention more than 100 other deaths, although not very strong, they were still Cultivators, how can they all die like that?”
Nux questioned back.
“This does not seem like the work of a single person.”
Evane spoke up and Amaya nodded,
“I agree with that. Mother had the same thoughts.”
Amaya then turned towards Nux and spoke,
“This is a group’s job. Or maybe a hidden organization.”
“I still do not get it.
Even if they are a hidden organization or something like this,
First, how are they strong enough to Kill King Stage Cultivators without leaving any traces, do they have Emperors in their ranks?
And even if they do have Emperors, why the hell are they doing what they are doing?
It doesn’t make sense, does it?
If they want to kill, just kill normally, behead them if you wish to be more dramatic, just cut the throat if you want to do a silent job, there are also methods like poison, direct fighting, or more, but…
But why the hell are they removing the victim’s clothes and leaving his naked dead body in his bedroom? Also, how are they even killing the Victim? There are no cuts, right? Is it poison? What kind of poison is it? Why do we not recognize it?”
Nux had many questions in his mind.
He found this situation absolutely ridiculous,
Which killer would have a fetish for showing their victim’s naked body to everyone?
“…”
The women didn’t have any reply either.
They were just as confused as Nux.
“We don’t know what this organization wants, but one thing is for sure, they are strong, not only that,
They are hidden, they are unknown, they are dangerous.
We don’t know what they want, they probably know everything about us,
This is definitely not a good situation.”
Amaya spoke with a solemn look on her face.
“I doubt they know everything about us.”
Astaria commented as she glanced at all her sisters and then at Nux.
Amaya realized what she was talking about as well…
“Well… they don’t know much about us either…”
She took her words back.
And she had to of course,
According to the entire world, only 1 Emperor survived the Great Four-Nation War. Yes, that was what they named it.
It was a little corny, but oh well, as long as it sounded good, nobody really cared.
Anyways, the point was, unlike how everyone thought, there were actually 10 Emperors on this continent now.
Any organization that was planning to fight Astaria alone… they would definitely be in for a big surprise…
And right now, they weren’t even mentioning the monster capable of beating all 10 Emperors alone.
“We are strong,” Ember admitted,
“However, that doesn’t mean we can be carefree. The hidden enemies are always dan-”
‘Guys…’
While everyone was talking, Riona suddenly sent a message, interrupting Ember,
‘You have to see this…’
‘What do you mean?’
Nux questioned with a frown on his face.
Riona sounded… shaken…
And honestly, when someone like Riona sounded that way…
This just reeked of trouble.
‘You recall the Murder cases I reported about…?’
‘Yes?’
‘All the bodies we found were at least half a day old, however, today, we finally found something…
A Grand Master Stage Cultivator… time of death should be about 15 minutes or less, he was found quickly because his wife returned to get something from the house an-‘
‘Get to the main part, mother, why do you sound so shaken?’
Amaya questioned.
She did not like this at all.
Even though Nawdren was there with her mother… she still felt anxious.
‘…’
Riona turned silent.
‘Mother?’
Amaya questioned, the worry on her face clearly visible.
‘…you guys should just see it yourself…’
Riona repeated her words.
The women frowned.
Especially Amaya,
Her mother clearly knew that other than Nux, none of them were capable of coming there right now, Amaya could understand that her mother was indirectly calling Nux there… but for her to act that way…
Amaya glanced at Nux and nodded, Nux nodded back with a solemn look on his face and,
‘I am coming there.’
‘Right…’
Riona nodded.
Nux then nodded at all his wives and then, he disappeared.
10 minutes later, he appeared in front of the house Riona told her about.
It obviously belonged to a high noble, since the victim was a Grand Master Cultivator, there were servants standing there with panicked looks on their faces, the Skadi soldiers had surrounded the house, some high leveled soldiers could be seen discussing the situation, the scene was panic-inducing,
Nux, however, didn’t care, he simply activated [Conceal] and walked in.
Soon, he arrived inside the victim’s bedroom and the moment he did,
His expression changed.
“What the fuck…”
He muttered out loud.
He was so shocked that he didn’t even put attention to his surrounding and bumped into a soldier in front of him.
His [Conceal] wore off and,
“Who are you!? Identify yourself!”
And soon, there were 3 swords placed at Nux’s neck.
“Guards, keep your sword down.”
Riona ordered. The guards frowned, but soon, they realized who Nux was and their eyes widened in horror.
He… he was the man who fought against Emperors… He led the Skyfall Army and was Astaria Skyfall’s student. Not only that, he was the husband of Queen Riona’s daughter, the daughter she adores more than anyone in this world…
And they placed their swords on this man’s neck…
They were all doomed…
“All of you, Leave the room.”
Riona spoke.
“As you command, Queen Riona.”
The Soldiers saluted and quickly walked out. Riona’s order was like another lifeline to them, they jumped at it as soon as they saw it.
“What the fuck is this…”
After the soldiers left, Nux finally cursed.
“I told you had to see this…”
Riona replied with a strange look on her face.
Nux glanced at the body in front of him…
It was a male, his hair was white and all that, Nux didn’t care much, the only thing he had his eyes on was…
The body’s genitals.
No, he didn’t just suddenly have a change in preferences, he very much preferred his wives, however, seeing a dead body with… well a dick that looked like it had just orgasmed… was indeed… weird…
Not to mention the smell that was inside this room,
It was a smell that Nux could recognize even in his sleep.
However, it was definitely not a smell he expect to smell inside the dead body’s room…
This situation… it just got even stranger…
“This bastard…
He died while having sex?”
