"Of course, I shall look for you in your clan once I succeed."

"Good Good."

"Now I shall take my leave."

"I hope we meet again soon," Milo spoke as she waved her hands.

Luna and Bella had smiles on their faces as well, it was a good talk.

Soon, Nux and Melia finally left.

"You are quite good at this, \'Dio\'." After they walked out of the inn, Melia spoke as she glanced at Nux.

"Hahaha~" Nux laughed out loud.

"I feel like you are more open when you talk with women." Melia narrowed her eyes.

"Oh? Is that jealousy I sense?" Nux questioned with a playful smile on his face.

"I have no reason to be jealous."

"Look at that confidence, \'people get jealous when they are insecure, I, have no need for that since there is no way any woman can take my man,\'

I can sense your sass just from your expression."

"W-What are you even talking about?"

"Fufufu~ It is not like I hate it either, I love that my woman is confident."

"I am not your woman!"

"You will be soon."

"…"

"Anyways, I guess we can narrow down our targets now?"

Nux then stopped playing around and spoke with a serious look on his face.

Seeing that, Melia\'s face returned to her normal expressionless look and she nodded,

"She is too popular."

Milo and the other 2 were not the only Catkin they had talked with, the two of them had been doing this since morning, talking to different people from different regions, and not a single mortal, or a cultivator spoke anything against Rune.

These catkins genuinely liked Rune, to the point some excited ones even said that they would support her if Lady Rune ever decides to revolt.

Of course, other people quickly covered up for them and those talks were buried.

Anyways, this made things clearer, Melia\'s initial theory was correct, this situation reeked of filthy politics.

And for someone who was so well-liked by the people, the suspects were numbered.

Oberon Feline, the City Lord of the Feline Cat City will choose his successor within the next 100 years, the successor would then receive power and influence second only to the City Lord.

It was clear that this assassination mission was related to all this.

Someone who would benefit the most if Rune is dead.

Someone who has the power to influence the City Lord into not using the \'Appeal\',

The suspect list automatically reduces to a single person,

The only other contender for the position of the Successor,

Rune\'s younger brother, Felix Feline.

The Culprit was definitely related to Felix, there is no other person, well, not someone Nux or Melia could think of.

Felix was the most logical assumption.

However, it still didn\'t make sense why Felix didn\'t contact a stronger Assassination Hall, or the reason Rune came to him instead of going to stronger Clans for protection.

"Things would get riskier from now on," Melia spoke up.

"Mhm." Nux nodded.

Since they had a basic understanding of the situation, their next destination was obvious,

The City Manor.

"Now we need to understand what people inside the City Manor think."

Nux spoke as he glanced in the direction the City Manor was in.

"Well then, Melia, it is unfortunate, but our little date has finally come to an end. Now keep your promise."

Nux spoke.

"Don\'t worry, I won\'t go back on my words," Melia replied, then, the two of them separated.

As decided before, to completely use his movement advantage, Nux will be infiltrating the City Manor alone. Melia on the other hand, would stay inside [Core].

Once Melia was gone, Nux sighed, then, he stretched his body, he tapped into *Essence* energy and his presence faded away.

…

"Cleo Darnadal, are you willing to be my Slave?"

Nux questioned as he glanced at the brown-haired Catman lying on the ground in front of him.

Sneaking into the City Manor was not very difficult. He could even sneak around in the Lust State and even the Bloodheart House, this place wasn\'t very different either. His *Essence* was overpowered, even Mana, that reacts to nonliving things as well, doesn\'t react to him.

Anyways, after Nux sneaked into the Mansion, the problem was talking to people, no one would just talk to someone who just randomly sneaked into City Manor, therefore, Nux decided to be a little ruthless.

He kidnapped a few guards that were hiding their presence while observing the City Manor and brought them inside the Core.

And now, he stood in front of one such guard.

"W-Where am I? I clearly remember I was inside the Manor! W-Who are you!? How do you know my name!?"

Cleo couldn\'t understand what was happening.

"Cleo, I am not a very patient person.

Answer my question, are you willing to be my Slave?"

Nux questioned with a cold look on his face.

"Do you think I would simply say agree!?"

"Yes." Nux nodded.

"Huh?" Cleo was taken aback for a while, then,

"You Bastard! Don\'t underestimate me!" Cleo shouted as he rushed towards Nux with a dagger in his hand.

But,

*Crack*

"AAAAaGGgGAGGGhHHH!!!"

Nux simply dodged his attack and broke his arm.

Cleo screamed in agony.

"You people really don\'t think, do you? Someone just grabbed you from behind, brought you into an entirely different place, and your first thought is to fight that person? Seriously?"

Cleo glared at Nux as he grabbed his arm. His entire body trembled in rage, however, at the same time, he was scared and confused.

This person was clearly an Emperor just like him, then… then why was he so monstrously strong?

"Now, Cleo, I will ask again, will you be my Slave?"

"I am loyal to the City Lord," Cleo replied in a hoarse voice.

Nux sighed.

"I don\'t really like to do this but,

Oh well."

Saying those words, Nux grabbed Cleo\'s index finger and,

*Crack*

"AAAaaaAAGGGGHhhHHhHH!!"

"You know, I don\'t really want much, I just need you to answer some of my questions, I\'ll release you after that, you have no reason to go through this pain."

Nux sighed, then,

*Crack*

He broke another finger.
