"Huh!?"

"WHAT!?"

Hearing that question, the Four Ministers, the King, and the Members of the Shadow Unit widened their eyes in surprise.

"King Stage!? Isn\'t he just a Grand Master Stage Cultivator!?"

The King couldn\'t control himself and questioned.

Astaria, however, completely ignored him and continued to observe Nux with a curious look on her face.

Nux, who was still trying to figure out why his System wasn\'t showing Astaria\'s status properly quickly came out of his reverie when he felt Astaria\'s gaze piercing his entire body as if it was a sharp arrow.

Unconsciously, he stepped back.

\'Maybe coming here was not as good of an idea as I thought it was…\'

Nux was even regretting it a little now.

However, unlike him, Astaria was enjoying this a lot.

After so many decades, she finally found something worthwhile, Nux was like the most delicious chicken in her eyes.

"You are hiding too many secrets, boy."

Astaria commented.

"…"

Nux didn\'t say anything and continued to look at her.

Seeing her looking at him like that, he felt that he couldn\'t hide anything from those sharp, intimidating eyes,

"Tell me, boy, why is a King Stage Cultivator like you following a mere Expert Stage Cultivator like a servant?"

Astaria questioned.

"…"

Nux, however, didn\'t answer.

Astaria frowned, however, she didn\'t mind, she had way too many questions in her mind, and Nux will obviously answer one of them,

Right?

"How did you hide your Cultivation from everyone? Why am I the only one who can see through your real Cultivation?"

"…"

Again, Nux didn\'t answer.

There were too many people around.

Also, Astaria wasn\'t exactly an ally.

"How old are you boy? I am sure you are not any older than 50, but I still want to know your exact age."

Astaria asked another question.

"WHAT!?"

"A less than 50-year-old King Stage Cultivator!? What kind of absurd talent is that!?"

The others present in the Royal Hall received another shock.

Nux on the other hand, was now actually regretting his decision of coming here.

His Cultivation was alright, but how did she determine his age? Also, shouldn\'t she focus on Lovis who was killed by assassins? What about the missing Consort that was most probably assassinated?

Aren\'t there many more important topics to talk about other than a normal servant?

Nux realized it.

He was too careless. He should have waited for a better opportunity to use [Eye of Discerning] on an Emperor Stage Cultivator,

Not that it actually helped with anything at all.

A complete waste.

"You aren\'t really answering any of my questions, boy."

Suddenly, Astaria commented, she then narrowed her eyes and questioned.

"Do you think I won\'t do anything even if you ignore me like that?"

Suddenly, the calm and silent atmosphere turned heavy, and everyone could feel a suffocating aura around them.

*Cough*

Suddenly, Nux coughed blood.

"NUX!"

Evane shouted in worry, however, just as she was about to rush toward him, she realized that she couldn\'t move.

Something was restricting her movement.

On the other hand, Nux felt as if a whole mountain was placed on her head, trying to crush him, forcing him to kneel, Nux, however, didn\'t kneel.

He glanced at Astaria who was looking at him with a curious look on her face, a sword appeared in his hand, he pierced his sword into the floor and using it as a support, he continued to stand and glanced at Astaria.

Seeing this, a smile appeared on Astaria\'s face. She placed her right leg on top of her left and smiled,

Suddenly, the pressure around Nux increased dramatically,

His eyes widened in surprise and,

*Crack* *Crack*

"AGGghhhhhh!!"

He howled in pain.

Both his left and right leg bones were broken, and his body was trembling in pain, however, he still continued to stand.

Impressed, Astaria tried to increase the pressure, however, suddenly, Evane appeared in front of Nux and glared at Astaria.

"You do not have any right to hurt my man!"

She shouted in rage.

Astaria frowned.

How did she break through her restriction?

Was she too focused on the boy that she completely forgot about this girl?

Ah, that must be it.

"Hmm? Right? Why would I need something like that?"

Astaria smiled and then suddenly, she narrowed her eyes,

"And talking about right, what right do you have to question what I am doing?"

"As the next ruler of this Kingdom, I have the right to question anything I want."

Evane didn\'t back down and spoke in a determined tone.

Her words not only surprised the King and the Ministers but even Nux.

"Hoh? The next Ruler? From what I have heard, the Crown Prince hasn\'t been announced yet, what makes you so sure that you will become the next Ruler of this Kingdom?"

Astaria questioned with a curious look on her face.

"Do you have any other options besides me?"

Evane questioned back.

"What? Are you going to choose a man who hired assassins to get rid of his own brother and sister?"

"What do you mean?" Astaria narrowed her eyes.

"It was Raguel, the First Prince who sent assassins to kill me and Lovis," Evane replied.

"Do you have any proof to support your argument?" Astaria questioned.

"There were no servants around my room when I was attacked, this means that the attack was preplanned. Not only that, the attack was planned by someone who has the power to move servants around the Palace.

Who do you think has that much power? It was obviously a Duke.

Duke Centho, Duke Vestalis, and Duke Merula have no reason, the only one left is Duke Fulvanius.

Who has connections to Duke Fulvanius? It is the First Prince.

Who will have the most to gain if I and Lovis are killed? It is the First Prince."

Then, a letter appeared in Evane\'s hand,

"Not only that, Lovis received this letter with my fake stamp on it, calling him into my room in the middle of the night. If I was the one who sent this message, why would I use a fake stamp? It was clearly sent by the killer.

The First Prince has the power and influence to pull all this off, not only that, but he also has the motive,

The Culprit has to be the First Prince."
