Chapter 157 Do You Remember My Promise? "Edrea, listen here, Mina, Sarrah, Malika and Maya won't be coming today. Therefore, you would have to do their part of the work as well. This is the list of everything you have to do, I am busy since I need to talk with Lady Allura, I hope everything is done before I return. Am I clear?" "Yes…" Edrea took the list from Edda and saw there were 15 extra things she would have to do today, alone. Edrea, however, did not complain. No, it was better to say she did not have the energy to complain. There were big black dark circles below her eyes, her makeup was a mess and her shoulders were hung as if she did not have any energy left. She looked like she was a walking corpse. However, no one could blame her either, for the last 5 days, Edda has been forcing her to work for 25 hours a day. She did not even give her a chance to take a carefree and calm breath. Not only that but, "Hey… don't you think Head Maid Edda is abusing her authority?" A maid who saw everything questioned another maid. "Are you new here?" The other maid questioned. "Yes, I am. I joined 2 weeks ago" "Ah, so that's why you said something like that. I am still fine, however, don't say that in front of any other maid, okay?" "Hmm? Why?" "Head Maid Edda is very popular amongst the maids and her popularity is well-deserved. She works extra hard just so she could ease our workload, not only that, she even talked with the minister to hire more maids so that our workload can decrease. A few years ago, we maids had to work so much that many of us died due to overexertion, however, ever since Head Maid Edda became the head maid, everything changed for the better. Head Maid Edda is an idol of almost every maid in the palace. If you say that Head Maid is abusing her authority in front of someone else, you might not get along with other maids, remember that." "But why does it look lik-" "Who knows? But I am sure it is Sub Head Maid Edrea's fault and Head Maid Edda is just punishing her." "Oh… I understand…" The maids then walked away and Edrea, who heard them, gritted her teeth. Yes, no matter how much she complains against Edda, no one was willing to believe her and everyone just placed the blame on her. There was no justice for her at all! Edda was not only abusing her Authority but she was abusing her popularity as well! This was simply unfair! Edda, who noticed her expression smiled coldly. For these past 5 days, she has only done 3 things, talking with Allura, spending blissful nights with Nux and bullying Edrea. She was really having a time of her life right now! … "Thyra Cruse, are you willing to be my Woman with all your heart?" Inside Alge- Nux's Mansion, Nux stood in front of Thyra and questioned. "I-I am…" Thyra, whose face was as red as a tomato answered. Then, she felt weird energy entering her body and she frowned, this was similar to the time when she became Nux's slave, however, at the same time, it was different. "W-What did you do?" Thyra questioned with a frown. "Hehe~ it's another one of my weird magic." "Another magic?" "Yeah." "Aren't I already under that weird magic of yours? Why bother with another magic?" Thyra questioned in confusion. "Huh?" Nux frowned. "Huh?" Thyra frowned because Nux frowned. Suddenly, a smile appeared on Nux's face as he realized what she was talking about. "Hahaha~ My cute little assassin, I have already removed the Slave Seal from you, I did it 4 days ago." "What!?" "Yeah? Didn't you realize it?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢 "…" Thyra stayed silent. She felt that he lying, however, she still found it hard to believe that she didn't notice that the weird magic was lifted from her 4 days ago. "What? Do you need proof? Hmm, let's try this, Thyra Cruse, jump into the air!" Nux ordered. Normally, Thyra's body would have done what Nux ordered, however, this time, it did not move on its own. "Do you believe me now?" Nux questioned. Suddenly, a dagger appeared in Thyra's hand and in one quick movement, she placed her dagger on Nux's neck. Her movement was so quick that Nux was unable to react and now, her dagger was 1 cm close to his neck, any simple movement, and he would be beheaded. "Do you remember the promise I made to you before?" She questioned with a cold smile on her face. "The promise to be my woman with all your heart?" Nux questioned back. "NO! Not that! My promise to kill you as soon as I get rid of this pesky magic of yours!" "Ah, you are talking about that…" Nux nodded in realization. Thyra frowned when she saw how carefree Nux was, however soon, she saw a glint in Nux's eyes, however, before she could react, Nux moved and, Kissed her lips. However, the kiss didn't last lost as Nux quickly broke it, he then looked into Thyra's icy blue eyes and smirked. "How are you planning to kill me? Sucking me dry with your tight pussy?" Thyra's face turned red as she answered, "D-Do not think I am joking! I will r-really kill you!" "Uh huh," Nux nodded as he gave her another peck on her lips. Then, Nux grabbed Thyra's waist and pulled her close to him. "How about you try killing me in the evening after I am done with what I am about to do? What do you say?" Nux questioned. Thyra's face turned even redder and she nodded. "A-Alright, be prepared…" "Sure sure, now you are coming with me, right?" "mm" Nux smiled. Heh. Thyra was cute indeed. 'Are you ready? She's about to leave' Then, a playful glint flashed in his eyes as he heard Edda's voice. 'Yes, I am about to leave as well~' 'All the best. Not that you will be needing it, I have done a good job filling Sister Allura's mind with indecent thoughts after all' Edda replied. Nux shook his head and chuckled. Yes, today was the day he will have another 'lunch' with Allura.
