"Kill her." Amaya pointed at Rune and spoke. "Huh?" Nux tilted his head in confusion. "Kill her?" Allura frowned as well. Rune had the same expression, however, she didn't panic, she just waited for Amaya to explain, it was not like anyone here had the ability to kill her anyways. Not that she was planning to fight ExceedoGenesis right now, They were the only ones who could save her right now. "Of course, we don't actually have to kill her, I am just saying that we should let the Shadow of Silence kill her." Amaya explained her plan. The more she spoke, the more their expressions changed, from 'How absurd' to 'Is that possible, then, 'Would they fall for it?' ' Oh wait' And then finally, 'That might actually work!' "This is much more efficient and we wouldn't have to go around convincing all those clans, honestly, talking with those geezers is too annoying. How can we do all that within a year, one might need a year of rest just after talking to one of those geezers, that is how annoying it is." Amaya spoke with an annoyed look on her face. The others chuckled and Rune, who had personally gone through it nodded with a smile on her face. She could perfectly understand where Amaya was coming from. Melia, on the other hand, continued to observe Amaya. She had seen how competitive Nux's wives were with her own eyes, so when she saw all those women agreeing and giving the position of Vice Leader of the Clan to Amaya, she knew Amaya was amazing, however, seeing her in action live, Melia was now even surer. Amaya was definitely a scary woman. She was much more capable than she initially thought. "Anyways, we will start with this plan later." Suddenly, Amaya spoke up. "Hmm? Why later?" Melia questioned, she thought there were some problems in starting early, the problem that she couldn't see. She wanted to borrow Amaya's wisdom and understand what the problem was, However, "I finally have the Spirit Alcohol, I want to talk to dwarves." Amaya, however, was thinking about a completely different topic. "…" "…" Melia and Rune glanced at her with deadpan looks on their faces. To think that she just wanted to earn money. 'Heh, once I secure the deal, I am sure I will be eligible to ask for a reward. I will go for 20 days this time.' Amaya thought inwardly as she glanced at Nux. Nux, who noticed her gaze, smiled gently, 'I will have you.' Amaya spoke as she narrowed her eyes. 'You already have me, my love.' Nux replied. '…' Amaya turned silent. Then, she shook her head and, "Alright then, I still need to make some preparations, so I will take my leave. Lady Rune, if you have nothing to do, please come with me, I am sure I can use your help." "Sure…" Rune nodded as she stood up. Amaya formed a portal, "Please." Rune seemed surprised that even Amaya could create a Portal, however, she quickly calmed down and walked into the portal. Amaya then walked in as well and the portal disappeared. Allura, who could see a bright chance right in front of her eyes, reacted quickly and, "Ahem, I will be taking my leave as well." Then, she glanced at Nux and, 'How long are you going to wait for?' Nux just smiled back and didn't say anything. Allura frowned, but then, she simply formed a Portal and walked away. Now, the only ones left in the room were Nux and Melia. Nux got onto the bed and crawled towards Melia, then, he rested his back on the wall and questioned, "What are you thinking about?" "Amaya's plan…" "Hmm? Do you not like it?" "That's not it, I just don't know how she thought of that. I knew about all the abilities she considered in her mind while coming up with that plan, but I still couldn't think of something even close to what she had in her mind." "Didn't I tell you Amaya is amazing?" "She is." Melia nodded. "Not only her, but even Lady Rune is also quite amazing." Suddenly, Melia commented. "Mhm, her view on death and her calmness on the matter, it was quite surprising." ·?θm Nux nodded. Melia nodded as well, but soon, "Though I don't feel any sense of awe from Lady Rune like I feel from Amaya. Rather than Awe, I only feel pity." "What do you mean?" Nux questioned. "Amaya is amazing, Lady Rune is amazing as well, however, I pity Lady Rune. She might try to hide it, but in the end, she was betrayed by her husband, the man she loved with all her heart. Just think about what she must have been going through." "Aragorn is a fool. I don't understand how can one betray a woman like her." Nux sighed. Though he was still grateful inwardly. "Mhm." Melia nodded, she looked a little down. It seemed like she had a lot in her mind. And seeing that, Nux held her hand, "Don't worry, I will not betray you." "What do you mean?" Melia blushed as she retorted. Nux then grabbed Melia and pulled her close to him. "What else? I am saying that once you are mine, I will make sure I won't do anything that will hurt you." Nux spoke as he rested his head on Melia's back. Melia's blush deepened, she wanted to get away from Nux, but for some reason, her body refused to listen to her. Suddenly, Nux placed his chin on Melia's shoulder and spoke, "You know, today I am a bit down as well." "Why?" Melia questioned with a curious look on her face. "Amaya said I am too weak to continue with my plan." "No, she said that our clan is too weak." "But I am the leader of the clan, am I not? I should be stronger than this." "You are a Complete Emperor Stage Cultivator who is less than 30 years old, how much stronger do you wish to get?" Melia questioned with a dumbfounded look on her face. "I feel like I can be stronger." "Huh?" Melia frowned. "I really do..." 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶 Nux spoke as he looked into Melia's eyes. Melia found herself strangely attached to Nux's golden eyes, Their faces came dangerously close to each other, "Melia, I need your help."
