YM778.TV Chapter 523 Know Your Limits.
"I don\'t understand what Lady Astaria is thinking, does she truly believe that the little girl or that husband of hers would be able to find all the spies in the Palace?"
Another person, wearing the same, skintight black colored clothes spoke.
"Well, I have seen how they captured those 12 spies, it seems that those people do have some skills to back up their claims."
"Don\'t fall for obvious traps. I am sure what they did was preplanned. Those so-called spies must be their accomplices."
"I think so as well. Just think about this, is it really possible to tell apart a spy from a normal person just from one glance? Of course not.
We need to investigate everything properly, even tail the suspect if required, only after days of investigation can one make sure if the suspect is actually a spy or not. It is a complicated process that should not have been left on children\'s hands."
"Haah, Lady Astaria should have given the authority to investigate those pesky nobles to us, if we had that chance, I am sure we could have cleaned the entire Palace within a few months."
"Indeed."
"Hmph, now all the authority has been given to that little girl who knows nothing other than fooling others."
"I think the Skyfall Kingdom is doomed, first, Ricardus, that bastard became the King, and now this little girl who has not even seen the world is going to rule…"
"Alright, I have heard enough.
Stay silent."
Suddenly, Reeve spoke.
Hearing his words, the other members of the Shadow Unit turned silent.
"I know most of you are not satisfied because Queen Evane summoned you like this, however, you have to know, no matter what, she was someone who was chosen by Lady Astaria and this time, Lady Astaria did not do it out of compulsion.
This time, she actually looks satisfied with the new ruler.
I am sure Lady Astaria saw something before choosing Queen Evane.
I advise you to respect her judgment and give Queen Evane a chance. We do not act on emotions, we only act on proof.
So wait for the proof before coming to any conclusion."
"We respect Lady Astaria\'s decision, that is why we are here in the first place, however, if you are asking me to respect that little girl from the bottom of my heart, then I am sorry, I just ca-"
A King Stage Cultivator was about to reply, however, before he could complete his sentence,
*Creek*
The doors of the Royal Hall opened and Nux and his wives walked in, this time, however, the one who was walking in front of Evane.
"Queen Evane."
Seeing her, Reeve and Keeve bowed their heads and greeted her.
Evane nodded, then she glanced at other members of the Shadow Unit and noticed that many of them had dissatisfied expressions on their faces.
Evane quickly understood what was going through their mind, a cold look appeared on her face as she started walking towards the Throne.
She climbed the 3 stairs and then, she sat on the throne.
Evane placed her right leg over her left, Nux and his other wives stood behind her, after observing the 100 members of the Shadow Unit in front of her, Evane turned towards Keeve and questioned,
"Are these all the members?"
"Yes, that is correct."
"I will ask again, none of them is missing, right? Anyone on a mission or something, you need to inform me if that is the case."
"No, Queen Evane, these are all 100 members of the Shadow Unit."
Keeve replied.
Evane nodded her head, then she glanced at the Shadow Unit again and soon, she heard Nux\'s voice,
\'None of them are spies.\'
"Six King Stage Cultivators, 24 Expert Stage Cultivators, 30 Grand Masters, and 40 Masters, that is a strong lineup."
Evane commented. She then turned towards Evane and questioned,
"I presume that the lockdown is already established?"
"Without a hitch, Queen Evane."
Keeve nodded.
"Alright, then let\'s stop wasting any more time, where are those 12 spies?" Evane questioned.
"They are locked in the basement, all of them are still unconscious," Keeve reported.
Evane glanced at Nux.
Nux looked and Keeve and spoke, "Take me there."
Keeve nodded, he raised his hands and one member of Shadow Unit stepped forward,
"He will take you there," Keeve replied.
Nux nodded, he then looked at the member who had stepped up and ordered,
"Take the lead."
The member nodded and started walking.
Nux and Ember followed behind him.
Soon, the three of them left.
"Alright, the two of them will get us new leads.
Now Keeve,"
"Yes, Queen Evane," Keeve questioned.
"Do you have any suspicions in your mind?"
The question wasn\'t clear, however, Keeve understood what Evane wanted to know,
"I am not sure, Queen Evane."
"That doesn\'t matter, even if it is only slightest of the suspicion, just say the name. Also, I am sure you already know this, but their status doesn\'t matter either, so you don\'t have to hold back."
Evane then turned towards the other members of Shadow Unit and announced,
"The same goes for you all, if you are suspicious of anyone, just say the name. Leave the investigation to me."
"Heeeh? Does the mighty Queen Evane require our help?"
One of the King Stage Cultivators stepped forward and questioned in a teasing voice.
A frown appeared on Keeve and Reeve\'s faces when they heard what the man said, they wanted to step up and stop him, however, Evane was a step ahead.
"If I have to do everything on my own, then what\'s the use of feeding you people?"
"What did you say?" The man narrowed his eyes.
"Do you have a hearing problem?
Do not forget, even if you are King Stage Cultivator, in the end, even if you grew up in the Royal Palace, all the Skills you use, even the Cultivation technique you cultivate, everything was provided by the Kingdom and I am the Queen of this Kingdom.
You are my subordinate who has to do what I order without any other choice.
Keep that in your mind and,
Know your limits.
Don\'t try to bite more than you can chew."
