YM778.TV Chapter 548 Actually, The Skyfall Kingdom Is Acting Strangely As Well.
"It is about the Solid Earth Kingdom."
Riona replied.
Hearing that, Amletus narrowed his eyes and spoke,
"I told you to ignore that, didn\'t I?"
"As someone who manages the entire Kingdom, I can\'t simply ignore something that might, no that is affecting my Kingdom."
Riona replied calmly.
"What are you talking about?" Amletus questioned as he narrowed his eyes.
"The Solid Earth Army is completely overpowering the Woods Dynasty."
"And?"
"The speed at which they achieved this is not something our army can do. That means, if we do not use our secret force, then their army strength is stronger than ours. Of course, we are not sure that the results won\'t be the same if we use all our forces.
After all, no one knows whether they have a secret force for themselves or not."
Riona reported.
"I don\'t understand, it is the fight between two other Kingdoms. How is it affecting us? Rather, since they are destroying each other forces, shouldn\'t it profit us instead?"
"It is about the ranking, after seeing their army strength, many believe that the Solid Earth Kingdom deserves the second rank and our Kingdom does not."
Riona replied.
"Heh, since when were you worried about things like ranking?"
Amletus chuckled.
"Since it is affecting our reputation negatively, I cannot help but worry. Who knows, the Solid Earth Kingdom might target us next and since I am unable to get any information on them, my worries are increasing."
"You are thinking too much. They won\'t attack us right after attacking another Kingdom. You should know that as well."
Amletus waved his hand and shrugged.
\'Too unbothered…
It is as if he already knows something…\'
Riona noted his attitude inwardly.
"Rather." Suddenly, Amletus glanced at Riona and his expression turned serious,
"Now that he is gone, let me ask you.
Did you manipulate him?"
"I do not understand what you mean." Riona\'s answer was quick.
"Let me change my question then,
Why did you kill 2 of our King Stage Cultivators?
No matter what kind of enmity was there between you two, killing them was too extreme."
Amletus spoke as a suffocating aura surrounded Riona.
Riona\'s expression changed, she could feel the air around her turning heavy.
She knew she couldn\'t make a mistake here, therefore, with a slightly panicked expression, she replied,
"What I said was the truth, Raguel, the First Prince contacted me, I thought it was a good opportunity to get the Solid Earth Kingdom under us, however, I still wasn\'t sure so I gave the letter to him."
Amletus narrowed his eyes,
"I am not a fool like him, Riona.
Why would Raguel contact you, or the Skadi Kingdom in general when there were other options available."
"No other options were available."
"What do you mean?"
"The solid Earth Kingdom is completely sealed, entering the Kingdom was impossible, and Woods had their own problem to deal with.
We were the only options."
"…"
Amletus turned silent.
"You know how incompetent that man is, why did you give the letter to him, why did you not settle it yourself?"
"If I had actual power, I would have taken the risk, however, my position is very critical, I cannot afford to make a mistake.
I gave the letter to him because I wanted to cooperate, but that idiot kicked me out as soon as he received the letter, trying to take all the \'credit\' for himself."
Riona replied.
Soon, she felt the pressure around her decrease.
A small smile appeared on her face before disappearing.
She continued to observe Amletus\'s reactions and then,
\'Time for phase 2.\'
Deciding that, Riona continued,
"Actually, the Skyfall Kingdom is acting strangely as well."
"Huh? What do you mean?"
Amletus tilted his head in confusion.
"When our cultivators were killed, I also wondered the same thing.
How did that girl survive against 3 King Stage Cultivators? What happened? How did this happen?
I had to know about it.
Therefore, I sent my spies to the Skyfall Kingdom.
There, I found something interesting."
"What did you find?"
Amletus questioned with a curious look on his face.
"A challenge."
Riona replied as she continued to read Amletus\'s expressions.
Unlike the time she talked about the Solid Earth Kingdom, now his expressions were keen, he looked more alert, more involved, as if he was afraid he would miss some information.
"Challenge?"
"Yes, a challenge.
\'All spies should leave the Kingdom within 7 days.
Else, you will be hunted down.\'
This was announced throughout the Kingdom."
"A challenge to all the spies huh?"
Amletus quickly understood.
"Yes, and that\'s not it.
The most interesting part is that the person who ordered this announcement was Queen Evane."
"Queen Evane?"
Amletus frowned.
"What happened to Ricardus?"
"I had the same question, I ordered my Spies to infiltrate the Palace, however, I learned that the Palace was completely sealed. They couldn\'t enter the Palace no matter how hard they tried."
"Sealed?"
"Yes, just as the Solid Earth Kingdom sealed their entire Kingdom, Skyfall Kingdom Sealed their Royal Palace."
"This is not something that princess can do on her own…"
Amletus commented.
"Indeed…"
Riona nodded.
"So that woman is out huh…"
"Huh? That woman?"
Riona frowned.
"Astaria Skyfall, the protector of the Skyfall Kingdom."
Amletus informed.
"Ahh, the one who is called the strongest being in the world?" Riona questioned.
She then noticed a slight change in Amletus\'s expression and frowned.
"Strongest my ass, that woman is just lucky." Amletus snorted.
Riona\'s frown deepened.
"So did you not learn anything else about the Skyfall Kingdom?" Amletus questioned.
"There is one thing I have learned, however, this is only a rumor, I do not have any proof yet but if I am being honest, I am positive this is true."
"What is it?" Amletus questioned.
"The Skyfall Kingdom will help the Woods Dynasty."
Riona revealed.
"Huh?"
Amletus\'s expression changes.
"Yes, they plan to send an army to aid the Woods Army and get rid of the Solid Earth Kingdom\'s Army."
