CHAPTER 120 WHO SAYS THAT HE DOESN'T PLAN TO DO IT?
"So hear me out.
Viscount Felberta, we all know she is related to Master Nux, right?"
"She's no-" Thyra wanted to say that she was being controlled by his weird magic as well, but after what she saw today, she started having doubts about it.
Her face then turned a little red.
"She's not?"
However, she was brought out of her reverie when she heard Twelve's confused voice.
"Ah no, I meant she is his woman, yes." Thyra nodded.
Twelve nodded back and questioned.
"And what is her Cultivation Level?"
"A Master Stage Cultivat- wait…" Suddenly, Thyra realized that she has missed a very important detail.
"Yes, Felberta Alveye was among those nobles who preferred making contacts rather than focusing on Cultivation.
She was a mortal, however, now, she stands before us as a Master Stage Cultivator. She's not alone, her maids, Skyla and Lane are Master Stage cultivators as well and coincidently, they are Master Nux's women as well.
Don't you find this weird?"
All the assassins widened their eyes, even Thyra was shocked.
"Yesterday when I went out, I did a background check on Master Nux."
"Hmm? Didn't you suffer through that annoying pain due to that?" An assassin couldn't help but question.
"It's not like I am trying to betray Master Nux, I am just trying to find out more about him. The pain only occurs when you think about betraying him." Twelve answered.
"Anyways, that's not important right now. So I did a background check on Master Nux and found out that he is an orphan and was a nobody before. The only thing good about him was his looks.
He was just a mortal 2 months ago, and now he is a Master Stage Cultivator, a Master Stage Cultivator who can defeat a Grand Master Stage Cultivator."
Twelve revealed.
The assassins' eyes widened in shock, they just couldn't believe what they were hearing, even the greatest genius in the world couldn't do what Felberta and Nux just did.
"I do not believe this. How can this be possible? I think something is wrong here?" An assassin blurted out.
"Yes, what if Viscount Felberta is behind this all along? What if she was hiding her cultivation before? It is easy for a Viscount like her to hide a lover, who is also a cultivator, from the eyes of normal people." Another assassin answered.
Thyra nodded. She agreed. Viscount Felberta might be behind everything all along.
"Then how do you explain Skyla and Lane? Those two are Master Stage Cultivators as well, how can a mere viscount have 3 Master stage cultivators serving her? And even though she does have those 2 as her servants, why would she be willing to share her man with them?
Remember, Viscount Felberta is a noble, no matter how close she is with her maids, she would never share a man with others, especially commoners." Twelve replied and the assassins turned silent.
"Then what are you trying to say?" Thyra questioned.
She had to admit, this 'Twelve' was smarter than she thought.
"I think just like his weird magic to control us, Master Nux has a magic that can increase the Cultivation of a person. That is the only reason why a Viscount would choose a commoner as a man and not a boy toy."
Twelve revealed. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.
"…" ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ ꪶ
Silence shrouded the room.
No one was willing to believe what they heard.
"That is not possible. Cultivation is an arduous and slow process, it cannot be increased with magic so easily" Thyra denied.
There is no way that is possible.
"Yes, this is just not possible; else he would have already taken control over the world."
"Yeah, Master Nux would have already increased our cultivation as well, he could enslave thousands of nobles and then could have increased their cultivation. This way, he would have created a peerless army and he would be undefeated."
Many assassins stepped forwards and rejected Twelve's theory.
"I am not saying that the magic is absolute. There has to be some kind of limit. For example, the number of people he can increase the cultivation of.
Or the maximum limit he could raise the cultivation stage of the person, or something like that.
However, I am 90% sure that something like that magic exists.
Also, about the conquering the world…" Twelve then observed all the other assassins and muttered,
"Who says that he doesn't plan to do it?
He already knows the existence of the kingdom behind us, however, he still dared to act against us.
He already knows that the two marquees' houses are not loyal to this kingdom, yet, we and they still exist and aren't wiped out yet, confirming that he hasn't reported anything to the Royal Palace.
He is not scared of our kingdom.
He is not loyal to the kingdom he lives in.
He is strong.
He has weird magic that is completely out of this world.
Who says he doesn't plan to conquer the world?
Why would he leave all of us alive? Why would he provide us with better weapons? There is no free lunch in this world.
Who knows? He might be recruiting us as his subordinates. He might be laying low and cultivating his strength. He might attack when he is ready. He might,
He might take over the world soon."
Twelve answered and everyone turned silent again.
"That's why I said it before, following Master Nux might be better than following the kingdom. If we can prove our loyalty, not just because of the pain, but actually showing that we are willing to work for him by our own will, the benefits we will receive won't be small"
The assassins then glanced at each other.
It would be a lie to say that they weren't interested.
Twelve's words made sense. His words were logical. What he said might be true.
Even Thyra had the same thoughts.
However, before she could think more, she heard a voice.
'Thyra, come here.'
It was Nux's voice.
'Hmph! Speak of the Devil'
