"Look, Evane, I didn't say anything before because I didn't have any solid proof, but if you still try to defend him,
Then you disappoint me."
Nux spoke with a solemn look on his face.
"Ugghhhhh!"
On the other side, Lovis, who was pierced by his dagger fell down and his body stopped moving.
Seeing him like that, Nux narrowed his eyes even further.
"His dagger was laced with paralyzing poison, heh, he was completely prepared to get rid of you."
"…"
Again, Evane didn't say anything, she just looked at Lovis, who was lying on the ground with a lost look on her face.
Lovis, who noticed her gaze pleaded for mercy with his eyes, however, seeing that she wasn't responding, he turned towards Nux.
Nux, however, didn't care about him, he just lifted the limitation on his Cultivation and appeared before Leo and the assassin fighting him, with just one slash, he beheaded the assassin.
"!!!"
Lovis's eyes widened in surprise. 'King Stage Cultivator!'
"K-King Stage Cultivator!!"
Leo had the same reaction as his Master.
"Y-You are a King Stage Cultivator!"
He pointed at Nux and screamed in fear.
"Why are you posing as her servant!?"
Leo couldn't understand.
"You don't have to know that. Just answer my question,
What are you going to do?
Are you going to stay loyal to your Master and die? Or are you going to become my Slave?"
Nux questioned and Leo didn't know how to respond.
"I do not have all day, Leo."
Nux spoke.
"…"
Leo stayed silent and a few seconds later,
"Aaaahhhh!!"
He rushed towards Nux with a dagger in his hand.
"Well, option 1 it is."
Nux shrugged and then, he beheaded Leo.
He then turned towards Lovis to finish everything, however, a frown appeared on his face when he saw Evane standing next to Lovis and Lovis was looking at him with a boastful look in his eyes.
Lovis had realized that Nux wouldn't move against him as long as his sister was willing to protect him and seeing that his sister was standing right next to him, he was sure that he was saved now.
Actually, he was thankful to his sister, even though he was trying to backstab her, she still stood up for her.
Maybe his sister was not a bitch like he thought she wa-
*Pierce*
Suddenly, Lovis's eyes widened in surprise.
He looked below and saw a red colored sword piercing his neck. Since his whole body was paralyzed, he didn't feel any pain, however, he could feel his life draining away slowly.
With a panicked look on his face, he turned towards his sister and saw her holding the sword that had pierced his neck.
'Y-You b-bitch…'
He cursed in his head.
He couldn't believe that his Sister, who was protecting her with her life on the line was the one who killed him.
This time, however, he wasn't the only one who was surprised, Nux, who was looking at everything was the same as well.
'She… She killed him?'
He continued to look at Evane with a lost look on his face.
Evane glanced at him and a second later, tears started rolling out of her eyes.
Nux walked towards Evane and placed her head on his chest.
"It's all fine, don't worry, you did the right thing."
More tears started streaming out of Evane's eyes, Nux continued to pat her head and soon, Evane passed out.
Nux carried her like a princess and then glanced at Lovis.
'I didn't think you would kill him.
You are stronger than I thought, Evane.'
With a small smile on his face, Nux walked out of the room.
Just like that, a long night finally ended.
…
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
The next day, Kelton walked towards Amaya's room and knocked.
"…"
However, he didn't receive any answer.
Kelton frowned,
"Lady Amaya."
He called out and knocked again.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
"…"
But again, no one answered.
Kelton waited for a while and continued to knock, however, 10 minutes later, when no one answered, a worried look appeared on his face and he decided to barge in.
He tried opening the door but he then realized that the door was locked.
A solemn look appeared on Amaya's face.
Ever since Amaya's 'Curse' had gone out of control, she had stopped locking the doors.
Something was definitely not right.
Kelton realized it, therefore, without waiting, he smashed the door open and barged inside Amaya's room.
"Lady Amaya?"
He called out.
"…"
Again, he didn't receive any answer.
'Is she not here?'
Kelton wondered in his head, soon, however, his eyes widened in surprise.
There was blood!
He quickly rushed and crouched near the blood, then he noticed the trail going toward the window.
Missing Amaya, blood inside her room, something was definitely wrong.
Kelton panicked, he followed the blood trail and opened the window.
His eyes then fell on the blood on the ground and he assumed the worse possibility.
With a determined look on his face, he rushed out of Amaya's room and rushed towards the King's room.
"Stop!"
However, there, he was stopped by the guards.
"I need to talk to the king! Something happened!"
Kelton shouted.
"The King is busy, he cannot talk to anyone right now."
The Guard shook his head.
"This is important!" Kelton didn't back down.
The Guard, however, shook his head again. "As I said, the King is busy, no matter how important it is, come later."
"Lady Amaya is missing, there is blood inside her room, I assume that she was attacked last night! I need to talk to the King, we need to search for her if she is still alive! We also need to catch the culprit!"
Kelton described everything.
Hearing his words, the guard frowned,
"What? Lady Amaya was attacked as well?"
"Of course she is, do you think I am lying to y- Wait, as well? What do you mean?"
Kelton questioned.
"Princess Evane and Prince Lovis were attacked last night and,
Prince Lovis didn't survive."
The Guard revealed.
