“Tell me everything you know about the Bannermane and Hardwick house,” Nux questioned as his eyes turned cold.
First, they attacked Edda. That was already too much, and now they even dared to attack Fel!?
Now that is too too too much.
He needs to show them that he isn’t easy to bully.
However, he would need to learn how strong the two noble houses are, he can’t be rash.
“The leader of the Bannermane House, Alger Bannermane is at Initial Grand Master Stage, the same is for the Hardwick House leader. However, the latter is a little stronger.”
Before Lona could think how to reply, her mouth moved on her own and her eyes widened in horror.
‘T-This is too scary!!’ Lona thought inwardly… her thoughts about being loyal to her new master strengthened even more. e
“Hmm? Just an Initial Grand Master Stage? Heh, then it will be too easy” Nux smiled as he already formed different plans on how to deal with him.
Edda, Felberta, Skyla, Lane, and the other assassins’ lips twitched at his response.
What do you mean ‘Just an Initial Grand Master Stage’?
He a Grand Master!
A GRAND MASTER!!
Then they quickly remembered how abnormal he is and just shook their head.
‘Yup, as expected, he is an anomaly.’ Felberta confirmed her thoughts again.
She mustn’t think of him like a normal person.
“No, master. It isn’t that simple. The Kingdom of Skadi is behind the 2 houses and has sent a group of assassins for them to use. As you already know, we are the said assassins. If these houses are attacked, these assassins will fight with their life and it will be troublesome for you to fight them.”
Although she was not questioned about this, Ash decided to share extra and important information as a way to show her loyalty.
The immense pain that was way more painful than any torture she has ever been through had left a deep mark on her heart.
“Kingdom of Skadi”
Edda and Felberta muttered at the same time… They then glanced at each other and chuckled.
“Oh? Then who is the strongest amongst you assassins?”
Nux however, completely ignored the extra information.
He just did not care. He wasn’t strong enough to care.
Also, he was more interested in the Assassins, Bannermane, and Hardwick Houses.
“I don’t know her name but we call her ‘One’. The strongest assassin amongst us, she is at the peak of Grand Master Stage, however, it would be a mistake to treat her as a normal Grand Master Stage Cultivator.
She is a Grand Master Stage Cultivator who has assassinated 3 Expert Stage Cultivators in the past so I believe it would best if we treat her as an Expert Stage Cultivator”
Ash replied, pouring out all her thoughts and betraying the teammates she once swore to never betray.
Although Lona, Nash, and Aldora felt a little weird, they quickly understood that they don’t have a choice as well.
They weren’t scared if Nux could or will take their life, however, they were scared of that hellish looking pain Ash has been through.
Also, their body moves on their own whenever Nux wants anything, so they can’t really hide anything either.
And if that was the case, they might as well be loyal to him from their heart. At least they won’t have to go through torture or be worried about their life.
“Hmm… an Expert Stage… this might be a little troublesome…” Nux muttered inwardly.
He was sure he could take on an Expert Stage Cultivator and might even defeat her, but if he was surrounded by other Cultivators at the same time, the odds weren’t in his favour.
It seems like he has to wait before he could take his revenge.
Well, it was not like he was in a hurry either.
He wouldn’t risk his life.
“I have something in my mind that might work.”
Just as Nux was about to give up and postpone the plan, Felberta’s voice sounded.
Nux then turned towards her and seeing a weird light that was shining in her eyes, he questioned.
“What is it?”
“Well, I have 2 ways to deal with it actually but you might not want to use the 1st method.”
Felberta muttered.
A wry smile then appeared on Nux’s face as he questioned,
“Is the 1st method you are talking about sneaking in and killing the ‘One’ she mentioned?”
Felberta smiled back as she nodded.
Nux then shook his head and continued,
“Leave it, tell me the second method, I am sure you must have thought something”
It was not like Nux can’t deal with the Expert Stage Assassin, he could easily use his [Conceal] to follow these assassins, and once they meet ‘One’, he could kill her and then deal with other assassins.
However, Nux did not want to use this method.
He has just witnessed how scary and great his Slave Seal is. If used correctly, this ability can help him tremendously.
These assassins are a strong force…
If he could get them under him… he would be a step closer to his actual goal.
Of course, his main aim was that ‘One’
A peak Grand Master Stage Cultivator, if he can get her as his slave, how much will his strength improve?
Also, who doesn’t want an Assassin Slave, ready to do whatever he orders her to?
Nux did!
And seemingly seeing through his thoughts, Felberta came up with her ‘Second’ method.
“Do you remember when I told you that someone asked me for Bannermane House’s information?”
Her words attracted Nux’s attention and he nodded.
“I do”
“The actual information he wanted was about…”
