"This bastard…
He died while having sex?"
"Can you not… say it like that…?"
Riona requested.
"But don't you see? This bastard died while having sex? You see that strange curve his thing is making? That's clearly an aftereffect of a-"
"Alright, I get it.
Yes, he died while having sex, alright?
You don't have to explain anything to me." : owner of this content.
Riona shook her head.
Seeing this, Nux just smiled playfully and shook his head as well.
"Anyways, we need to find out who is behind this. For some reason, I do not have a good feeling you are here. The frequency of these murders has been increasing at an alarming rate and from the pattern, I have noticed, it looks like the culprit or, culprits are targeting people with higher cultivation, also, all the victims are men, so someone is specifically targeting men."
Nux raised his eyebrows.
"I have already sent some men with high cultivation as an undercover around the city and since they have Slave Seal implanted on them, they could easily contact you when something happens, however, none of those culprits are targeted yet."
Riona continued with her report. This time, for some reason, she didn't look as nervous or tense as before.
Of course, knowing the fact that the strongest being in the continent is currently standing right next to her was assuring.
"Mhm, let's just hope these bastards target those men. Order them to play along and report as soon as anything happens to them. It would be better to catch alive."
"I plan to do the s-"
Riona was about to nod, however, before she could complete her sentence,
"Queen Riona…"
3 guards barged into her room and,
"Another body was found…
The Victim is one of the men you sent as undercover…"
"…" Riona and Nux turned silent.
'How did they not report? Were the killers so fast that he didn't even get the chance to report them? But that doesn't make sense, Amaya said that killers with these strange fetishes do not just kill. They like to play around with their opponents before ending them.'
'He was ordered to report the moment someone suspicious approaches him, so if he didn't report anything, then it means he didn't see anyone. It can only mean that he was indeed killed in an instant, or, he was poisoned by a professional.'
Nux glanced at the dead body in front of him and frowned,
'So does that mean the Culprit is doing everything after killing the victim? Does it even get erect once the person is dead?'
Nux couldn't help but wonder.
'There can also be another possibility,' Riona completely ignored Nux's words and proposed another new theory.
'The Culprit knows how to block the Connection.'
'…'
Nux's expression changed.
'I will go check it out.
Riona, from now all, stay with me.'
Then, he contacted his wives and,
'All of you, be together all the time and come here as soon as possible. Also, I need you to send me a message every 30 minutes.'
'What happened?'
Amaya questioned with a frown.
She could feel Nux's anxious tone from his tone…
The tone he used, it was as if he was commanding them and wasn't planning to hear a no as an answer.
Nux never talks like that, especially with them.
'Riona will explain everything.'
Nux spoke and then, he turned around.
"Take me there."
He ordered the Guards.
The aura he released was overwhelming, the guards didn't dare make him wait, they didn't even glance at Riona for her confirmation and nodded,
"A-As you command."
They then turned around and started walking.
"Riona."
Nux called and then started following the soldiers,
Riona followed as well.
Doing just what Nux told her to do.
A few minutes later, all of them arrived in front of another house, this time, it wasn't a noble, but a common man's house, the soldiers were keeping away all the common folks who were trying to see what happened,
"Queen Riona! That's Queen Riona!"
A commoner shouted.
Everyone turned towards her and chaos ensued.
"Queen Riona! Queen Riona!! I am so glad you became our Queen! You deserved the title in the first place!"
"I agree! I agree with that!"
The commoners spoke excitedly.
"Wait, who is that handsome man next to Queen Riona?"
One of the commoners spoke up.
Everyone's eyes then fell on Nux and their expressions changed.
"Who is he?"
"I have never seen him before!"
"Is he Queen Riona's consort?"
"Well… if I had that power… I would keep him as my consort as well…
Just look at him."
"Oi… you are a man…"
"…"
The man didn't reply.
The others glanced at him with weird looks on their faces.
Nux completely ignored them, he was not in the mood, he walked into the room and saw a similar scene.
'It's the same smell.'
He thought inwardly.
This time, he didn't stay in the room for long and quickly walked out.
Riona, on the other hand, decided to try and find something that could help find the culprit. Since the room was in his [Sense]'s range, Nux allowed that.
He started walking on the road while thinking.
This time, however, he didn't activate his [Conceal], therefore, everyone could see him.
Many stopped what they were doing to look at him, some women even felt their cheeks burning, however, no one dared to approach him.
Currently, Nux had that distant aura around him that intimidated others.
Or… intimidated the most…
"Umm… Hello there…"
While Nux was deep in his thoughts, a woman called him.
He turned around and his eyes fell on an average-looking woman who was looking at him with a slight blush on her face.
"Hmm?"
"W-What is happening here? Why are there so many s-soldiers here? Did something happen? C-Can we do something to help?" The woman questioned.
"Huh? Who is she?"
The people around questioned.
"Heh, to think she would have the galls to approach that man? Does she think she stands a chance?"
"I mean, she is above average, but compared to him… he won't even take her as her maid."
The people started commenting, those comments made the woman feel uncomfortable, she lowered her head, joined her hands, and started gritting her teeth.
Nux glanced at the women who were passing these rude commands, seeing his gaze, the women turned silent. He then grabbed the woman's hand and,
"Come with me."
Took her to an alleyway.
"T-That works too?" One of the women, who Nux just silenced, blinked a few times.
"All we had to do was talk?"
They couldn't believe it.
"Do you really think a man like that will be loyal?"
Suddenly, another commoner just shrugged.
"He must have taken her to the alleyway to have sex. I can guarantee you that woman would never see his face again after that."
The other men nodded and shrugged as well.
"Hah! He is just using her."
The women, however, didn't care about that.
They all were… well, having their own fantasies in their minds.
"I wish he uses me as well…"
"Same…"
"…"
The men didn't know how to react.
On the other hand, Nux, who took the woman to an alleyway spoke,
"I must say, your acting is amazing, Demon."
