"Aren't you enjoying this a little too much? She won't fight you know? She is planning on running away. And you know all too well that Rislith wouldn't be able to capture her.
I am telling you this just to make it clear, but I won't count it as a favor if that happens."
Suddenly Nux spoke up.
No one knew who he was speaking to, let alone the enemies, even Rislith frowned in confusion.
Rune on the other head narrowed her eyes.
Her instincts as an Expert Assassin that had been through countless life-threatening situations were screaming in wariness.
And as a person who trusted her senses, Rune's quickly made the decision, earlier, she was planning on taking Alistair and some others with her, however, now, she quickly gave up on them, then, she leaped into the air, her body started shrinking, strange energy revolved around her, soon, white fur covered all her body and she turned into a cat with white fur and beautiful green eyes.
Soon, she activated her ability and even though she was the center of attention all this while, she still disappeared from everyone's vision.
That was the ability the Catkin possessed.
Invisibility.
This is also what turned them into master assassins and stopped anyone from daring to mess with them. No one wanted an assassin who can turn invisible coming after them.
Alistair, who realized that Rune had abandoned him widened his eyes in shock. She knew how strong Rune was, but to think that Rune was running away…
He clenched his fists in anger and frustration.
He was scared.
Surrounded by 5 Saints that are so strong that even Lady Rune, whom he had respected and thought of as a role model all this while was forced to run away, he didn't know what to do.
The disparity of strength even though all of them were at the same stage was honestly appalling.
In the end, Alistair just closed his eyes, in any case, he had to think positively,
Lady Rune had managed to escape.
It was not necessarily her accepting her defeat, she may go and bring some reinforcement.
Yes, he still had a chance.
Alistair grabbed onto that little hope.
However, soon, even that little hope was taken away from him.
"Hmmm. To think you would jump towards the window and then disappear, making it look like you escape. This way, everyone's attention would be on the window and would think you have successfully escaped, but then, you would either find the right chance to attack or find a better time to leave with a 100% guarantee.
That cautious nature of yours even though your invisibility is absolute, I am impressed."
Nux spoke as he glanced in a certain direction.
Everyone frowned, however, Rune, who was in her cat form widened her green eyes in horror.
This man… he could see her!
How is that possible!?
Wasn't her invisibility absolute?
Never in her life has Rune's presence been detected by someone who had the same cultivation level as her, but to think that today, a mere Emperor would look into her eyes and see through her invisibility…
Just who was this man!?
Ability to appear and disappear anywhere through these strange portals.
Ability to have Rislith herself come and aid him.
Ability to get away from the hold of a Saint Stage Assassin.
Just who did this Alistair mess with!?
Rune couldn't understand, however, she didn't have the time to understand either, her instincts, they were now ringing louder than ever, they were screaming at her to run away, and Rune listen.
This time, she actually jumped towards the window, trying to get away as fast as possible, however,
Just as she was about to jump out of the window, a portal formed right next to her, a slender hand moved out of that portal, the hand's speed seemed slow, however, Rune felt like she was trapped.
A Saint Stage expert assassin like her looked completely helpless in front of the hand that just seemed like it was simply moving towards her.
The hand then grabbed Rune by firmly gripping the loose skin on the back of her neck. Rune tried moving around and setting herself free, however, no matter what she did, it all seemed useless. Soon, her invisibility wore off and her shameful appearance was visible to everyone.
Alistair, who actually knew about Lady Rune's strength and ability couldn't believe something like this was even possible.
Rislith and the other 4 Saint Stage Succubi, were focusing more on the slender hand that was holding Rune as if it was just a random stray cat.
Soon, the entire arm came out of the portal and after that, the body followed.
*Thud*
Without wasting a single beat, the 4 Saints standing behind Rislith kneeled.
"Lady Eisheth."
They greeted as they bowed their heads.
"Mother."
Rislith bowed her head as well.
Eisheth glanced at her daughter and nodded.
"Mother, why are you here…?" Rislith couldn't understand.
"I was informed that there was someone troublesome here, looks like the report was correct," Eisheth spoke as she glanced at the cat she was holding.
When Rune saw the person who had captured her, her eyes widened in horror.
The Queen of Lust State!
Eisheth Lust herself!
Why is she here!?
Was Rislith not enough!?
Rune glanced at Nux,
'Who the fuck is he!?'
She couldn't help but wonder.
How can one possibly make a Divine Stage Cultivator move?
What kind of absurd power is that!?
Alistair and his sister, who saw Eisheth standing right in front of them couldn't help but widen their eyes as well.
Alistair's sister may be ignorant enough to not know who Rislith was, however, there was no way she wouldn't know who Eisheth was.
Someone like her was standing right in front of her.
Even if the Shadow of Silence and the Edge Clan join hands, they still wouldn't be able to even make Eisheth take them seriously.
An existence that played on the world level…
Why was she here?
Alistair and his sister glanced at Nux as well,
Who simply stood there and with a playful smile on his face, he bowed his head,
"You finally decided to reveal yourself, Lady Eisheth. My eyes are blessed since I have witnessed your elegant beauty."
