CHAPTER 181 WHO CARES?

"Your Majesty, what are your thoughts about this?"

The 4 ministers turned toward the man sitting on the golden throne and questioned.

The man had black hair and a beautiful pair of purple eyes, there were some wrinkles on his face, however, he had maintained himself and he still looked handsome. The man had a lean and fit body, which showed he had trained his body regularly. He wore a white coat with stylish golden-coloured designs that were masterfully carved on it.

There was a golden crown on his head and he sat on the throne with an elegant, yet bored look on his face.

However, though he looked a little lethargic and leisurely, he should not be underestimated.

This man was the strongest in the Skyfall Kingdom.

A King Stage Cultivator, the king of the Skyfall Kingdom.

Ricardus Skyfall.

A frown appeared on Ricardus's face as he heard his ministers' question,

"Why are we discussing something so useless?"

He muttered with a bored look on his face.

The ministers glanced at each other with frowns on their faces, however, Ricardus didn't care what they were thinking and continued.

"A Spy? Don't talk like it is something new. There must be more than 20 spies within our Royal Palace. That is normal.

As for whether that girl is lying or not; who cares?"

King questioned and the ministers shook their heads and sighed.

They were too naive to think that he would even care...

"What does that Marquee achieve from all this?

Who cares?

What is his goal?

Who cares?

In the end, they are just a Marquee and a subhead Maid, don't give them more importance than they deserve.

Just give a reward to the Marquee for his hard work and get done with it.

As for that maid, interrogate her for a few more days, if she doesn't answer, kill her.

We don't have time for something so useless.

Discuss more important topics."

The king announced, and then, a smile appeared on his face as he turned towards Gibson.

"So? Have you found a way to deal with that annoying curse?"

'This is the important topic you want to talk about?'

This is what Gibson wanted to ask, however, he didn't dare to. He just shook his head and sighed,

"I have sent our men all over the world to find the cure of that curse; however, most people don't even know about that curse let alone know about its cure.

There is no progress."

"Haahhh…"

A tired sigh escaped from other ministers' mouths.

The king then slammed his armrest in anger as he growled,

"That Skadi bastard! He dared to fool me! I will make sure he pays for it!"

The ministers looked at each other with worried looks on their faces, they knew that the king was angry, therefore, they did not say anything.

This was normal, they just needed to stay silent for a while and everything will be fine.

And they were right.

A minute later, the king finally calmed down and sighed then he glanced at his ministers and instructed.

"Continue looking for the cure."

"Yes, your majesty" Gibson nodded with a bow.

"Hmm, continue with the reports."

"Yes, so to conclude report 4, I will announce Marquee Bannermane's rewards,

Marquee Alger Bannermane will…"

…

"Marquee Alger Bannermane will receive 5000 gold coins, three 4-star weapons and one 4-star Cultivation technique as a reward for revealing a Spy that was hiding inside the Royal Palace as the Subhead Maid.

The king commends him for his bravery and wits and hopes that he continues the Skyfall Kingdom in the future as well.

Blah Blah Blah.

There was a lot more, but I didn't bother hearing everything that was announced." Allura, who was snuggled close to Nux's chest muttered with a lazy look on her face. ρꪖꪕᦔꪖꪕꪫꪣꫀ ꪶ

She just had a blissful session with Nux and therefore she was still a little tired.

Plus, Nux's embrace was just too comforting; she couldn't help but be lazy.

"Hahaha~ So the plan succeeded huh…" Nux, who patted Allura's head, muttered.

"I can't believe you would portray my kidnapping as a Spy hunt," Allura replied.

"Well, I needed a reason to move everyone from the area." Nux chuckled.

"But I have a question,"

"Ask away."

"Why did you do it?" Allura raised her head, her blue eyes looked into Nux's golden eyes and she questioned.

"Well, there were a few reasons, first,

I wanted you." Nux smiled.

"But I would have been yours either way… You didn't have to do something so crazy…"

Allura answered with a small blush.

"That would have taken too long. If I used the normal method, I would still be finding ways to take you out on lunch. There was no way I would be able to lay down beside you, on the same bed, while we both are naked, like this."

Nux moved his face close to Allura's and whispered.

"You are a little too beautiful Allura, I couldn't control myself and moved recklessly"

Allura's face was completely red now and she had lowered her head in embarrassment.

"W-What w-were the other reasons…" She questioned in a mosquito-like voice.

Actually, now she didn't care about the reasons, however, she was too embarrassed right now, therefore, she needed to change the topic.

"Well, other reasons were related to Edda, she wanted to avenge all the people Edrea had killed and she didn't want to dirty her own or my hands.

Also, she needed to leave the Palace."

Nux answered and Allura pouted.

"Hmph! I know her well, the first reason is just something she came up with, I am sure the main reason was that she wanted to 'kill herself'. This way, she could spend all the time with you!" Allura snorted.

"Hahaha~ That's true~" Nux agreed.

Actually, Edda admitted it herself.

She doesn't care about Edrea, she just wanted to be with him.

However, he was different.

That maid dared to target his woman, his possessive side took over.

He wanted revenge.

And he got it.

"Tsk Tsk! What a greedy bitch! I want to leave this palace and stay with you as well!" Allura complained.

Then, a sad look appeared on Nux's face.

"We can't do that right now…"

"I know, the death of a head maid won't be a problem, however, if a concubine 'dies', the king would use all his force to investigate everything seriously.

He won't settle down unless he finds out how his 'trophy' was broken."

"Indeed, and currently, we can't face the king, I need more power to do that, and I will need your help as well."

A small smile appeared on Allura's face as she replied, "I will help you in any way I can, Nux."

Nux smiled, he then sealed Allura's lips.

Allura, of course, accepted the kiss and used her tongue to attack Nux's tongue. The kiss got lewder and lewder, Nux then grabbed Allura's naked body and pulled her even close to him.

The two then rolled on the bed as they shared a hot, passionate kiss.

Suddenly, Nux broke the kiss as he stood up.

"What happened?" Allura questioned, however, soon, just like Nux, her expression turned serious as well.

Nux and Allura quickly wore their clothes, then, they glanced at each other and nodded.

They then walked out of the room.

Then, Nux and Allura turned towards a corner where the light didn't reach.

Soon, Nux frowned.

However, he trusted his ability and walked towards the dark corner. This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.

As he walked closer, Nux finally noticed a dark veil of mist.

Nux extended his hand towards the veil, however, suddenly, a dagger that was aimed at his throat was shot!
