"I do not want to throne if it means that I would have to give up on Nux."

"I never said you have to give up on Nux, I only want him to give up on his other wives,"

"I wi-

"Nux would never give up on any of his wives."

Before Nux could even say something, Evane spoke up.

Suddenly, a mocking expression appeared on Astaria\'s face and she questioned.

"Heeh? What happened to staying with you for the rest of your life?

If he loves you as much as he says he does, something like that would be simple, no?"

In Astaria\'s mind, Evane\'s words directly proved her point. Relationships were nothing but a burden.

Evane, however, thought differently.

"He loves me, however, I am the only person he loves, there are others as well, forcing him to choose one over the other is something that would hurt him.

Love is a two-way road, just like he cares about me, I care about him as well, I would never do something that would hurt him, therefore, I would never force him to choose me over others.

That is not love, that is selfishness."

"…"

Astaria turned silent.

"Well, as long as you control his drinking habit, I am sure Lucas would become a fine King."

Suddenly, Evane spoke and stood up.

"As for me, I will be taking my leave now."

Saying that, she turned around.

"Did you think I would give in to you just because you are the most suitable heir to the Throne?"

Astaria questioned.

Evane stopped, she then turned towards Astaria and replied,

"I did not think about you giving into me or anything like that. I have already made things clear, I will not become the Queen if it harms my relationship with Nux."

"What would you do if someday you would have to choose between the Kingdom and Nux."

"I would choose Nux, of course."

Evane replied without wasting any time.

"So you will abandon those millions of people you are ruling over for one man?"

"Yes, I will."

"You are really not suited to be the Queen."

Astaria commented.

"Maybe that is true."

Evane smiled.

Astaria smiled as well,

"I am jealous."

Evane\'s smile widened as she tightened her grip around Nux\'s hand, "I do consider myself lucky."

"Well, you are still better than the Ruler who killed his own brother for the Throne, or a ruler who has wasted his entire life on alcohol."

Suddenly, Astaria commented.

"Hmm?"

Evane frowned.

"Haahh… I guess the Skyfall Kingdom would never receive a decent King…"

Astaria sighed in disappointment, soon, however, a smile appeared on her face as she glanced at Evane,

"Well, whatever, I guess we have to make due with whatever we have, Evane Skyfall, I hope you rule this Kingdom properly."

"…so you would allow me to marry him and be the Queen of the Kingdom?"

Evane questioned.

"Do I have any other option? Well, it might harm our reputation a little, however, I feel like I can take a little chance and invest in you."

Astaria spoke. She then turn towards Nux and ordered,

"Though I would like to see these \'wives\' of yours before the coronation."

A smile appeared on Nux\'s face,

"Well, some of them might surprise you."

"Oh?"

Astaria raised her eyebrow,

"You seem quite confident."

"I am."

"Then I am excited to meet them."

"How about tomorrow?"

"Sure."

Another exciting event was arranged.

Astaria then changed her posture and spoke,

"Alright, with that done, I would like to talk about why I actually called you here."

"What is it?" Evane questioned.

"Where is Raguel?"

Without wasting any time, Astaria questioned.

"Huh?"

Evane frowned.

"Lady Astaria, what are you talking about?" Nux questioned.

"Tsk, still lying I see."

Astaria snorted.

"I don\'t know what you are talking about." Nux tried his luck.

"You expect me to believe that you fail to catch an Expert Stage Cultivator?"

"Well, I had to fight a King Stage Cultivator."

"Boy, don\'t act so smart, I have already gauged your strength, there is no way a single King Stage Cultivator could stop you, I doubt even 10 King Stage Cultivators could do that, you are a monster of a different dimension.

Now tell me the truth, where is Raguel? Did you kill him?"

"Well, he did try to harm my wife. He had it coming."

Nux decided to be honest.

"Is he alive?"

Astaria questioned.

"I killed him."

Nux replied.

Astaria frowned. "I thought you would have tortured him before finishing him off."

"Why are you asking about all this? He committed a grave sin, me killing him shouldn\'t be a problem, should it? Rather, I did the Kingdom a favor."

"Killing him is not a problem, however, I wanted to know how and why he contacted the Skadis, something doesn\'t add up here."

"What are you talking about?"

Nux questioned.

"Think about it, he assassinated Amaya Skyfall, the Princess of the Skadi Kingdom, if he did something like that, why would he contact the Skadi Kingdom? I know that there are chances that the Skadi Kingdom does not like Amaya are high, however, why would Raguel take unnecessary chances when he could just contact other Kingdoms? It doesn\'t make sense."

Astaria spoke and Nux raised his eyebrow,

\'The same thought process as that of Amaya\'s.\'

"What are you trying to say?" Nux tried to probe deeper.

"I believe that it was not Raguel, who contacted the Skadi, but on the contrary, the Skadis who contacted Raguel.

The Skadis are planning something, I think they are in cahoots with the Solid Earth Kingdom."

"Solid Earth Kingdom?" Nux frowned.

"Yes, as you know, I went to Solid Earth Kingdom and it was as you said, that Bastard Herms is making moves.

Herms is a shrewd man, he wouldn\'t do something as reckless as breaking a Treaty without any plans. He is definitely planning something.

I tried to find out what it was, however, I couldn\'t find anything.

I believe the Skadi Kingdom is somehow connected with all this."
