200 You didn't forget your promise, did you?
“Well not particularly, but when I thought about how he will disrupt our conversation with his annoying questions, I assumed it’s better if he is unconscious.
Don’t you think so as well?”
Different thoughts started appearing in Amaya’s mind, however, in the end, she quickly sorted her thoughts and answered.
“No, I do not think like that.”
“You are no fun~” Nux complained.
Amaya realized that she is being too passive in this conversation, therefore, she decided to change the topic.
“So you finally decided to show yourself huh? Where have you been for the last 3 weeks?”
“Hmm, I have been busy with some stuff,” Nux answered as he sat down on a chair, right beside Amaya.
As for Kelton, well, he just lay there on the floor, without bothering anyone.
“Tsk Tsk, I know what you have been busy with.” Suddenly, Amaya snorted.
“Huh? What do you mean?” Nux questioned with a frown.
“Hmph! Don’t think that I don’t know that you sneaked into the Palace yesterday. I thought you would come to meet me soon, however, you stayed with your Allura for the whole day.”
Nux’s eyes widened in surprise.
“H-How did you know?” He couldn’t help but question.
One had to know that he trusted his Conceal very much.
Even a King Stage Expert might not be able to sense him, then how did Amaya learn about it.
“Your disguising technique may be a lot stronger than normal but don’t think that I can’t find you.” Amaya smiled.
For some reason, she enjoyed seeing a surprised look appearing on this man’s arrogant and confident face.
“How did you do it?” Nux questioned again.
He had to know.
Amaya knowing about it was fine, however, nobody else can know about it.
Is his Conceal not working anymore? Or did Amaya have any other way to know about it?
“It was simple really, Allura did not allow anyone to enter her room after the afternoon lunch. This doesn’t match her regular attitude at all.
She is someone who would go out of her way to talk to a servant just so she could hear some rumours, there is no way she won’t allow a servant to enter her room.
Unless, of course,”
Amaya then smiled as she glanced at Nux and continued,
“There is a man inside her room.”
“She could be emotionally unstable you know?” Nux questioned back.
“Heh, you may not know about it, but I have been keeping my eyes on Allura, nothing that would make her ’emotionally unstable’ happened.”
“Huh? Didn’t the head Maid Edda die? She was close to her.”
“Oh yeah? She is emotionally unstable 3 weeks after her death? You think I am a toddler?”
“…” Nux turned silent as he glanced at the woman in front of him.
This woman was scary indeed.
She is just too good.
He was having a hard time indeed.
“Hmph! I could have understood that you met her first then you came to meet me, however, to spend an entire day with her before coming to me, I feel a little sad.” Amaya muttered as she shook her head, feigning disappointment.
However, this gave Nux a chance, a small smile appeared on his face as he questioned,
“Is that jealousy I sense?”
Amaya paused.
Then, she glanced at Nux and answered,
“I was just teasing you, why would I be jealous? What is there to be jealous of?”
Nux just smiled and didn’t answer.
And for some reason, Amaya did not like that smile at all.
Therefore, she decided to change the topic again,
“So? What were you busy with? What have you been doing for the last 3 weeks?”
“Oh? Were you missing me?” Nux questioned with a smile.
“I feel honoured.”
“Again, you are thinking too much. I am just curious.” Amaya answered with a straight face.
Nux wanted to tease her a little more, however, he had more important things to do right now.
Heh. He has all the time in the world to tease her.
Amaya Skyfall isn’t going anywhere.
A small smile appeared on Nux’s face as he answered,
“Well, someone said that she will do anything I say if I give them a little something they need, so I have been busy finding that little thing.
I mean, she said she will do Anything I want, I would be a fool to reject such a great offer, right?”
Hearing Nux’s answer, Amaya’s movement paused.
She wasn’t a fool, she knew what he was talking about. However, she just couldn’t believe it.
“You didn’t forget your promise, did you, Amaya?”
Amaya was then brought out of her reverie when she heard Nux’s voice, her body flinched as she backed down when she realized how dangerously close his face was to hers.
“You didn’t forget your promise, did you, Amaya? I will be sad if you did, you know?” Nux questioned again.
The playful smile on his face indicated that he was enjoying every second of it.
“D-Did you really found it?” Amaya questioned back.
“There is no reason for me to lie to you,” Nux answered.
“W-Where did you find it?”
Although she had already predicted it, Amaya’s eyes still widened in surprise when Nux confirmed it.
The technique that she was searching for her whole life,
The technique for which she created an organization like Thousand Information Chamber but still couldn’t find it,
This man found that technique within 3 weeks, this was simply unbelievable.
“Tsk Tsk, look at your eyes, the disbelief is so clear.
Hmph! You think I would lie to you?”
Nux shook his head and then, a black-coloured book appeared in his hands and he passed it to Amaya.
Amaya grabbed the book with trembling hands and when she read the title, her eyes widened even more.
Mantra of the Devouring Mist Demon.
Nux, who noticed that her hands were trembling while she held the book couldn’t help but smile,
Then, he brought his face very very close to her again and questioned,
“You did you forget your promise, did you, Lady Amaya?”
