"WHAT!?"
Eardwolf shouted as he widened his surprise.
"Are you serious?" He questioned.
"Do you think I would lie about such a serious matter?" Riona questioned back.
Eardwolf narrowed his eyes.
He then glanced at Riona again.
This woman might be beautiful, however, those eyes of hers were… scary.
Whatever was going on inside her mind, he didn't know and after the recent events, he was not even warier of her.
"Why are you telling me about this then?"
He couldn't help but question.
"I want you to report this to Lord Amletus," Riona replied with a small smile on her face.
Seeing that smile, Eardwolf was now even more alert.
"Why aren't you doing it yourself, it is something that would change the entire Skadi Kingdom as a whole. If you report it to father, he would definitely see you in a new light and might even break the tradition in order to make you the Queen.
Why aren't you doing it then?"
He questioned.
"I felt guilty about what happened last time, therefore, I wanted to pass this opportunity to you.
Look, I only want what's good for the Kingdom,
Whether you lead it, or I do, it doesn't matter."
Riona replied with a saintly smile on her face.
"…"
Eardwolf turned silent and started considering Riona's option.
Soon, however, he shook his head and,
"No! No, I do not want any favor from you. I have grown enough to realize any 'opportunity' you pass to me is always coated with poison, I am not foolish enough to get fooled by a similar trick again.
If you think it is something good, then report it to father yourself, whether he makes you the queen or not, I don't care."
Eardwolf had made up his mind.
He would not fall for this bitch's tricks again.
Seeing him acting like that, Riona just smiled.
"Alright then, I will be taking my leave then. I guess I would deliver the good news to him myself."
Saying those words, Riona turned around.
Then, with a smile on her face, she spoke,
'I won the bet.'
'Tsk. Whatever.
It was an unfair bet to begin with.'
'Just don't go back on your words.'
'…'
Riona didn't hear a reply but with the same smile on her face, she continued walking and then appeared in front of a door.
*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*
She knocked.
"Enter."
Riona walked in.
"What is it?"
Amletus questioned.
"You look annoyed," Riona spoke.
"That is why you should say what you want to say and get the hell out."
Amletus replied with a frustrated look on his face.
The Aura he released overwhelmed Riona, however, she did her best to keep her sanity and replied,
"I-I am sure your mood will change when you hear what I have to say."
Suddenly, the aura that Amletus was releasing disappeared and he questioned,
"Speak."
"We found the Cure to the Curse."
Riona revealed with a smile on her face.
"What are you talking about? What Curse?"
"The Devouring Mist Physique."
Riona said the words and Amletus's expression changed.
"…are you serious?"
He questioned.
With how he reacted, it was clear that this was something very important to him.
"I am," Riona replied and without wasting any time, she started explaining,
"As you know, my daughter, Amaya Skadi was born with Devouring Mist Physique, finding her useless, we sent her to the Skyfall Kingdom."
"Continue."
Amletus was clearly interested.
"That girl did not give up, she founded something called Thousand Information Chamber that dealt with information and after so many years, she finally found the technique to cultivate the Physique."
"Are you serious?" Amletus's expression changed.
"She is currently a King Stage Cultivator."
Riona revealed and Amletus's eyes widened in shock.
"Where is she!?" he questioned.
This time, his tone was more hurried.
He was clearly losing his self-control.
This was very important for the Skadi Family, it was something that would push the Skadi Kingdom to new heights and might even make them the Strongest Kingdom with undisputed power in a few centuries.
And if all of this starts in his era, then his name would be written with golden ink in the Ska- no, the World's history.
Seeing his reaction, Riona smiled.
This was the reaction she wanted to see.
Seeing that everything was coming together, Riona dropped the bomb,
"She is here in the Palace, I knew you would want to meet her when you learn about her so I called her here beforehand.
Should I call her?"
"Call her." Amletus didn't waste a single second and spoke.
Even though he was trying his best, he still failed to hold back the smile that had appeared on his face.
"As you command, Lord Amletus," Riona spoke.
*Clap* *Clap*
She clapped twice, the door of the room opened and a woman walked in.
Seeing the woman, Amletus's expression changed.
A spitting image of Riona was standing in front of him.
"Greetings, Lord Amletus."
Amaya greeted with a small smile on her face.
"Hahaha~ What do you mean Lord Amletus? You are my Granddaughter, you can call me Grandpa.
You are a spitting image of your mother.
Hahaha~ Thank god you did not inherit your father's looks." Amletus laughed out loud.
Amaya just smiled as she glanced at this 'Grandfather' of hers.
Riona had a similar expression on her face.
"I shall call you Grandpa then," Amaya replied.
"Hahaha~ Of course Of course." Amletus laughed out loud.
Leaving the technique to cultivate the physique aside, Amaya's cultivation alone was enough for him to nurture her.
A King Stage Cultivator. Amletus knew that this girl was not more than 50 years old, for someone like her to be a King Stage Cultivator.
It was a never seen before talent.
Of course, this didn't mean that he didn't care about the technique.
If he could get both, a genius and the technique, he would obviously not deny it.
"Did you really find a way to cultivate your physique?"
He questioned.
Instead of answering, Amaya raised her hand, Dark Mist came out of her hand, and seeing the mist,
Ameltus's eyes shined.
