946 The Plan.
“…”
Felix glanced at 30 people standing in front of them, unlike them, he didn’t go through any agonizing torture, forced to tell the truth while losing their freedom to a stranger, however, his body still trembled continuously. He wasn’t suffering through any physical pain, however, what he was suffering from was something far more terrifying than mere physical pain.
His entire world had fallen apart.
His lips quivered, face paled, and eyes lost all the shine, it wasn’t just about how almost everyone around him was ‘planted’ by a certain someone to ‘keep an eye on him’, it wasn’t about what he thought he was doing on his own accord turned out to be just him playing exactly like that certain someone manipulated him to,
It was about that certain someone.
That certain someone who created a ‘fake world’ around him turned out to be the person he trusted the most.
His own mother.
“I shouldn’t be saying this, but if you still don’t believe our words and trust that woman,
Then, dude, you are just a moron.”
Nux spoke with a tired look on his face.
4 hours, it took 4 hours for them to reach this stage.
It started with the wife and the butler, with Slave Seal placed on them, they opened their mouth, the story they told was not exactly the same as Aragorn’s, however, they all lined up.
Of course, Felix still resisted,
‘You are forcing them to say this.’
‘Rune must have told them to say these words.’
He said everything he could to deny all allegations against his mother, however, Nux didn’t give up.
Using the wife and the butler, he found more names.
More people were captured, and all of them were brought here, this time, the one Rune didn’t go bring them, she waited with Felix and Nux to get rid of Felix’s suspicions.
Slave Seal was used again.
Another story was heard, from a different perspective, but with the same ending. More names were heard again.
The cycle continued until 4 hours passed and 30 people were called.
Yes, Willow Feline managed to plant 30 Spies inside the City Manor and she did it so cleverly that none of these spies knew the entire plan or the identity of all other spies. Willow created such an ingenious network where all the spies had some other spy keeping an eye on them. None of the spies had any way of getting out of this vicious circle.
Even Amaya couldn’t help but praise when she analyzed how complex the network was and to plant this network inside a Manor where people consider you dead, just how in the world did that woman do it?
If Willow ever decided to become a lecturer, Amaya wouldn’t mind attending one or two lectures.
Indeed, Amaya was beyond impressed.
And of course, with 30 people attesting to it, even Felix, who blindly trusted his mother, didn’t have any choice but to open his eyes.
Felix, who had his head lowered, didn’t react to Nux’s words.
There was an eerie silence around him.
Rune, who was looking at her little brother in this state pitied him. Nux was the same, what Felix was going through wasn’t something he could understand, however, he knew it was probably the worse feeling in the world.
Suddenly, Felix lifted his head, with his dead eyes that lost all color, he glanced at Rune, then, a small, forced smile appeared on his face,
“It seems you were right, Sister… I was fooled…”
That smile…
The moment she saw it, it broke Rune’s heart.
Even Nux, who wasn’t particularly close to Felix was affected when he saw that small but heavy smile on Felix’s face. He could feel the impact of Felix’s emotions.
“Take me to my room, Sister…”
Suddenly, Felix spoke up.
“Huh?”
“Take me to my room, I’ll tell you mother’s plan,” Felix spoke, the expression on his face was still the same as before.
Rune glanced at Nux.
“Don’t remove the chains.”
Nux spoke.
No matter what, since he couldn’t use the Slave Seal, he still didn’t completely trust Felix. Rune nodded, she glanced at Felix as if trying to ask his permission, but Felix didn’t react.
Rune opened the cell, and detached the Chains from the walls, floor, and ceiling, allowing Felix to move.
Then, she took him out of the underground prison.
The guards were surprised and wanted to stop her, however, Rune had complete authority. Right now, inside the City Manor, she was no different than the Lord.
“Pass me a knife.”
Felix spoke as he, Rune, and Nux walked into his room.
Rune narrowed her eyes,
“I just need a drop of my blood. Drop it on the floor.”
Nux stepped forward as he lightly cut Felix’s wrist, there was not even a slight change in Felix’s expression, he looked like he was ‘broken’ already.
His drop of blood fell on the floor and then,
*Whoosh*
A huge white-colored Magic Circle appeared on the floor, a Magic Circle Nux recognized very quickly,
“Teleportation Circle, the location is directly connected to Skythorn Falcon City.”
Felix revealed and Rune widened her eyes in horror.
“I become the successor, then according to the tradition, I get the chance to have a ‘meal’ with the current Lord alone. I use Blackheart to weaken him and by the time the Lord realizes what happened, Leo would have activated the Magic Circle from our side, allowing Prima Skythorn, the City Lord of the Skythorn Falcon City, a Divine Stage Cultivator, come here and surround our room with 5 top class Saint Stage Cultivators accompanying him.
So in the weakened state, the Lord wouldn’t be facing me, who was merely a Saint,
He would face another Divine Stage Cultivator who is just as strong as him.”
Felix revealed the entire plan and this time, not only Rune but the entire ExceedoGenesis Clan who heard everything couldn’t believe what they just heard.
Felix…
He…
He wasn’t just targeting Oberon…
He was planning to destroy the entire Feline Cat City!
