At first, Veles' features flashed in disappointment before confusion. But in the next instant, his eyes widened.
"That little bastard!"
Dyon grinned. "It's so nice talking to intelligent people, I don't have to waste my words."
Dyon's plot was simple. Just like Merchant Brinsop sank his hooks into the Angel clan economy, becoming a spy, he had done the same with countless other clans! Veles had just realized that Brinsop was actually a spy!
Leisurely tapping the arm rest of his chair, Dyon leaned back. "In all likelihood, the Moon clan already knows that I'm here."
Veles grit his teeth in frustration. "Ugh, how ridiculous! And after all of this, you dare to say we have a 40% chance?!"
Dyon shrugged, "Would your personality have allowed us to be incognito? You practically tried to rip my head off the moment I stepped into your territory."
Veles' features turned red with about 70% anger and 30% embarrassment before he calmed down. He knew that Dyon was right.
"With Brinsop's help, I can likely guarantee that 80% of the spies will be removed. Coupling this with a few other methods I'll give you, should you agree, I dare to say that they'll all be weeded out."
"That is… Quite the tempting offer…"
Veles knew how important it was to have intelligence on spies. There wasn't a clan in existence that could prosper without having such information. Even the Ragnor Clan from Dyon's time went as far as directly killing all of the spies they had found out about in order to prevent information of the Epistemic Tower being leaked.
It wasn't necessary to kill them all as that would just incite the enemy to send more. But, it would definitely be good to know of them all. Then, one could feed the enemy false information to gain the advantage. The only reason Dyon didn't use this approach was because he didn't have enough time to make good use of it.
Veles knew that if he couldn't deal with these spies, his chances of ruling the cosmos would find its first road block on this small Planet Haven!

"Luna?" Nina stood, her voluptuous body glad in tight black spandex. Viserion culture was different from the Angel clan and much less conservative. But, even then, they were currently in the Imperial Harem, she could flaunt herself as she pleased.
Plus, how could Veles' first wife not be a world toppling beauty? Everything from her jet-black hair, pulled back into a pony tail, to sparkling green eyes was imbued with perfection that only fell just shy of Luna and Amphorae.
Luna shook her head, awakening from her stupor. With a smile, she reassured Nina that she was alright. "How about you give me a small tour of your esteemed palace?"
Nina clapped, happily obliging. But, she didn't notice the complicated look on Luna's features as she turned away.
The two beauties leisurely walked around the castle, lightly giggling to themselves as the surrounding servants tried their best to avoid their gazes. Even some lingering nobles only dared to look after they had already passed them. But, even they looked away immediately, scolding themselves. These two were the wives of the most talented two young men likely in the history of this quadrant. Wouldn't they be sending themselves to death by coveting them?
It wasn't that they didn't know of Dyon's cowardly actions in the past few decades, but that only served to scare them even more. For a man to love a woman to the level of forsaking his own dignity, wasn't he no less than a madman? How would he react to them staring at her with any form of lust?
There were even rumors that he, himself, didn't dare to touch his own wife, treating her like a porcelain doll above all reproach. Apparently, he also completely ignored his concubines for her sake as well.
Thinking to this point, they no longer dared look at the petite silver-haired beauty despite how magnetic her presence was. Even a woman wouldn't be able to control their fiery lust while being with her. One can imagine the kind of will-power it took for a King, who was, even further, her husband, to not touch her either. That was definitely a man capable of doing anything for this wife of his.
Of course, none of this would mean anything had Dyon not just beaten their own King in front of them all! In their dragon-like society, strength meant everything!
As for King Viserion's woman, even less needed to be said. Unlike Dyon who lived in another clan, their King was right here! Even worse, with their queen's temper, she could implode herself at any moment. One day she might enjoy flaunting her body and allow their eyes to take advantage of her, but on another, she might have them beheaded for doing the same thing!
Luna, however, didn't seem to mind being stared at. For a woman like her who wasn't even embarrassed that her moans were heard by her husband's guards, would could imagine what it would take to rattle her.
Nina pulled Luna's small arm toward herself, pressing it into her almost exaggeratedly large breasts. "Little Luna," The two ladies walked into a private garden, escaping the heated gazes within the castle, before reclining on green grass by a tranquil lake. "Don't tell me the rumors about you and your husband are real?"
The truth was that both Nina and Luna had been good friends since their youth. Obviously, Nina hadn't grown up in the Viserion clan and had actually been a Princess of a King God Clan just a few universes over. During the Universe Tournament, Veles had caught her eye with his obviously impressive performance. As such, her family didn't have any reservations about marrying her to him even though he was from a mere branch clan. This was especially so since her former King God Clan was actually a subordinate clan of the main Viserion clan. Because of this, the main clan were hoping to use Nina as a way to keep tabs on Veles from afar.
One might wonder how the Princess of a King God Clan could become close with someone so far down from their station. But, the answer held the same reason as why the Prince of an Emperor God Clan would diligently try to woo her to be his first wife.
Luna was special beyond what words could describe, but the history of the Moon clan was even more so. Many suspected that the clues of Luna's origins matched up far too perfectly with a certain mystery of her clan. Being a shrewd man, Luna's late father decided to publicize the special nature of his daughter as opposed to trying to hide something he knew he couldn't forever. Not only did this not backfire, it actually resulting in their Moon clan gaining benefits from all sides! Because no one was willing to offend even the small possibility of their notions being correct!
As for what these speculations were, that was a story for another time, with too many points of historical significance and mystery to explain in a short moment. What is of importance now though is this…
