“Hmm, it has only been a day, I thought you would take your sweet time.”
Eisheth spoke with a small smile on her face as she glanced at Nux who was standing in front of her.
“I would have come sooner, it was just that there were some things I needed to settle down, I just recruited 37 new members, after all,” Nux replied.
“You are like a desperate pervert.” Eisheth just shook her head.
“What can I do? I missed Lady Eisheth so much that even staying away for a day proved to be difficult.” Nux chuckled.
“Heh.”
Eisheth laughed as well.
Then, she pointed at the seat in front of her and spoke,
“Sit.”
Nux nodded as he made himself comfortable.
“What about that Cat? Did she contact you?” Eisheth questioned.
“She did not.”
Nux shook his head.
“That’s why I said go a little easy on her, she could have been a valuable ally.”
“I did not have much of an option there. What I need the most right now is the manpower, so taking away her subordinates was necessary, and it was not like leaving my assassins there would have helped, as for the contract, I don’t think I have to say anything about that.
All three conditions were important, otherwise, the huge stunt I pulled and the favor I called in, all of that would have been wasted if I hadn’t gotten anything out of it.”
Nux explained his reasoning.
“Well, that’s up to you. I only gave a piece of advice, acting on it or not is entirely up to you.” Eisheth simply shrugged.
“I did ask Amaya to look into her when you talked about her,
She is the daughter of Oberon Feline, a Divine Stage Cultivator, and the City Lord of Feline Cat City. She has a powerful background, so I can guess why you would point me toward her, but honestly, there is nothing much I can do to get involved with her.
She has a loving husband and she seems to be pretty satisfied in her life, so much that there are no openings for me to get involved in.”
Unlike Demons, who lived in Demon Continent in ‘States’, or the Vampires who lived in Blood Continent under the ground, or the Humans who had 3 big empires, the Beastmen lived in Beastmen Cities. They were the only race that lived separately from each other and from different cities throughout the United Continent.
Of course, this didn’t mean that the Beastmen were not united, on the contrary, they were one of the most united races in Yrniel, this was also the reason no other race dared to attack the Cities these Beastmen formed. Since if they did, the rest of the Beastmen cities that are close by would harass them until they are ruined.
Anyways, these Cities are called Beastmen Cities. Most of these Cities were led by a Divine Stage Cultivator, some stronger Cities had more than 1 Divine Stage Cultivator protecting them as well.
Rune’s father, Oberon Feline, was the City Lord of one of these Beastmen Cities, the Feline Cat City. In terms of strength, it was closer to the Lust State, so Nux could see how they would be a strong ally.
However, just as he mentioned before, he couldn’t find an excuse to get into Rune’s seemingly perfect life.
Hearing Nux’s words, Eisheth just chuckled,
“Do you really think the Information about a Beastmen City’s City Lord’s daughter would be that easy to acquire?”
“Hmm?” Nux frowned in confusion.
“Most of the Information Chamber still do not know that Aisha has become a Sage, do you think that is because the Information Chambers are incompetent?”
Eisheth questioned with a smile on her face.
Nux narrowed his eyes.
“It is because of you…”
“Well, you are not entirely wrong, but I am not directly involved with it, they just respect my status and strength and do not go around sniffing too much. Unless, of course, they get a mission from someone with similar power, then they wouldn’t mind taking a risk, but that would also depend on the reward.”
“So as long as someone powerful is not interested…”
“Yep, all the existing information you can find about someone with a strong background is just superficial information with no use.”
Eisheth replied.
Nux nodded in understanding,
“So I need to look into it myself, huh.”
With his abilities, gathering information was not very difficult, Nux didn’t wish to brag, but if he wanted, even getting information about the Strongest Forces like Human Empires, Strongest Demon States, the Blood Kingdom, or other powers, wasn’t impossible.
Of course, this didn’t mean he would try and sneak into the bases of all these powers, he had no reason to do so, no matter how confident he was, there was always a chance of uncertainty. He could not just blindly trust his abilities, they have failed before, it wouldn’t be surprising if they failed again.
There was no reason to antagonize the strong powers for no apparent reason.
However, since Eisheth seemed so interested in Rune, Nux decided to take a little risk,
Who knows?
He might get something out of it.
“You don’t need to.”
Suddenly, Eisheth spoke up.
“Hm?” Nux tilted his head with a frown.
“Don’t you know? You shouldn’t actively go after a woman, that reduces your charm as a man and might make the woman not like you.”
Eisheth spoke with a playful smile on her face.
“Oh? Is that what the problem is? Is my charm as a man being reduced since I am actively pursuing you?” Nux questioned with a similar playful smile on his face.
“Hahaha~”
Hearing his words, Eisheth laughed out loud.
“This is why I like talking to you, boy. You never fail to amuse me.”
“I will take that as a compliment.”
Nux replied.
Eisheth nodded, then, she stopped laughing and glanced at Nux again,
“You did get my message, right?”
“Mhm, don’t worry, I won’t do anything reckless, if she approaches me, I’ll get myself involved, if she does not, I will just let it be.”
“Witty and smart, I like it.” Eisheth smiled.
“I am just collecting brownie points for my future goals,” Nux spoke as he glanced at Eisheth’s body with a perverse look on his face.
