"This…"
Rune couldn't keep her eyes close as she walked into the [Core] and started looking around with an awestruck look on her face.
"How is it?"
Nux, who appeared right next to her questioned.
"Is it beautiful…" Rune praised.
"Welcome to our home." Nux smiled.
"This… this is your home…?"
Rune questioned.
"Mhm, I and my wives live here."
Nux answered.
"This is a lovely place."
Rune commented.
"Thank you."
"B-But where exactly is this place?"
Rune questioned as she looked around.
This stunning mansion, the fountains, the nature, this place was no different than heaven itself! For such a beautiful place to exist, it should have been well known throughout Yrniel. How come has she never heard of it?
"That's a secret."
Nux, however, didn't give her an answer.
He couldn't just say that this entire place belonged to just him and was not a part of Yrniel, now could he?
Hearing his answer, Rune seemed disappointed, however, she didn't say anything.
"Now let's head in, shall we?"
Nux questioned.
"We are going into that mansion?"
Rune questioned as she pointed at the Mansion at the top.
"Yep." Nux nodded, then, a Portal formed in front of him.
"Get in."
Rune did as she was told and walked into the Portal with a curious look on her face, from the other end, she walked into a lavish room.
Her eyes then fell on a black-haired pale skinned beauty sitting on the bed. The beauty glanced at her and smiled,
"You are finally here, Lady Rune."
"You are…"
Rune narrowed her eyes.
She has seen this woman before, she was with Nux and the others when they 'attacked' Shadow of Silence. At that time, she couldn't notice her because her attention was on Eisheth, however, now…
"Melia Bloodheart, it is nice to meet you."
"B-Bloodheart!!"
Rune's ears instantly perked up.
One of Five Duke Families of the Blood Kingdom!
What is someone from that family doing here!?
And did she just call herself Melia Bloodheart!?
A-As in Melia Bloodheart, the daughter of that man!?
Knowing the Queen of Lust State was already a big deal, but someone from the Bloodheart Family!?
Rune felt like her heart would burst apart.
There was a huge difference between the Lust State and the Bloodheart Family.
No, it was not just because Lust State only had 1 Divine Stage Cultivator while the Bloodheart Family has more, if it was just that, then there are times when Lust State has more than 1 Divine Stage Cultivator as well.
The reason why Bloodheart Family is so different is…
Orpheus Bloodheart.
Even if cultivators have the same cultivation stage, it cannot be said that they would have similar strength, there are differences in levels no matter what cultivation stage it is, however, when it comes to Divine Stage, these differences become extremely huge.
Eisheth Lust or Oberon Feline, both of them are no doubt strong cultivators, however, Orpheus Bloodheart was different.
He was one of the strongest Divine Stage Cultivators in the entire Yrniel.
Not many knew this, however, Orpheus Bloodheart alone could defeat 100 Eisheths or Oberons, that was how wide the gap between them cultivators was.
And the daughter of such person… was sitting right in front of her…
Rune didn't know how to react.
"Lady Rune, are you sure you should be acting like that when you are the successor candidate of your Feline Cat City?" ραпdαs `n?ν?| сom
Melia questioned with her usual expressionless face.
?α?dαsηθνε| Hearing those words, Rune finally came out of her reverie.
She glanced at Melia again.
Long Raven Hair… Deep Crimson eyes… Pale white skin… that expressionless face and Great Sage Cultivation…
Just like she had heard, this Young Lady was definitely Melia Bloodheart.
"What are you doing here?"
Rune questioned.
"Wha-" Melia was about to answer, but then, Nux walked out of the portal,
"This is your first time talking to each other, isn't it? Let me introduce,
Melia, this is Rune Feline.
Lady Rune, this is Melia Bloodheart, my future wife."
"WHAT!?"
Rune shouted in surprise.
"What are you talking about!?"
Even Melia shouted as her face turned red.
Nux, who had already crawled onto her bed smiled playfully,
"What? Is it not the truth?"
He slowly moved his face closer to Melia, Melia moved her face away, Nux chuckled and then, he fell down, his head landing on Melia's lap.
"W-What are you doing!?"
Melia questioned.
"Hehe~ It is quite comfortable."
Nux commented.
"She is still here!" Melia shouted.
"Hmm? You don't like it?" Nux questioned.
"I don't!"
However, even if she said those words, Melia still didn't push Nux away, heck, she even adjusted her posture to make Nux more comfortable.
She was honestly cruel for forcing Nux to move away from this position on his own.
"Ahh, you are so cute, this is why I love you, Mel."
Nux spoke as he looked at Melia with a gaze full of love.
Melia, who was panicking and flustering around, froze up, then, her face turned bright red and she simply looked away, trying to hide her expression.
She could feel her face burning up.
Nux smiled as he continued to look at Melia's face from below. This was a sight he could stare at for eternity. His lovely Vampire was just that beautiful.
Rune, who was completely isolated in the room didn't feel very isolated, rather, she didn't even think of that, her mind was busy registering what she saw.
This man…
He is this close to the daughter of Orpheus Bloodheart?
Is that the reason why he has so many peculiar abilities?
Also, why was Melia blushing like a teenage girl!? She is a Bloodheart for god's sake!
Rune's mind was indeed a mess right now.
"Tsk tsk, I knew it would be like that.
Just do the deed already, you two.
The sexual tension between you two is almost frustrating."
Suddenly, the 3 people inside the room heard a voice.
Their eyes then fell on a white-haired succubus who just walked in through a portal.
"I had nothing to do, so I came here, and I think it is good that I did. You two, when were you planning to do what you came here for? Lady Rune is not interested in these shameless acts of yours, right, Lady Rune?" Allura glanced at Rune and questioned with a playful smile on her face.
"R-Right." Rune nodded.
"Ahh, I apologize, Lady Rune."
Nux, who came back to his senses replied.
Then, he sat up, and with a serious look on his face, he questioned,
"So, Lady Rune, let's jump straight to it,
How is your husband related to you being assassinated?"
