The next day passed by very quickly, Riona spend her entire day preparing for her meeting with Nux.

No matter what, she had to talk to Nux and win his trust.

There were many questions in her mind, especially after what she saw yesterday and only Nux could answer her questions.

With a nervous look on her face, Riona walked to where she met Nux and Thyra yesterday. This time, the one following her was not the King Stage Assassin, but a Grand Master Stage Cultivator.

A move to show her trust in Nux and Thyra.

For her to go in front of 2 King Stage Cultivators alone, it required guts. Of course, this was all just for a show. Riona had met Nux and even fought against him for a while, she knew how strong he was, bringing another King Stage Cultivator won't make much of a difference, however, as they say, it is the thought that counts.

Well, the man who followed her was not normal either. A man Nux has seen quite a few times but has avoided every time.

Kelton.

Amaya's butler.

"I hope you are prepared." When his eyes fell on her, Nux smiled.

"…"

Thyra didn't say anything and continued to observe the woman in front of her.

"Let's not waste much time and continue, I am sure you have many questions in your mind, I will answer all those questions if your so-called explanation is convincing enough."

Riona nodded, she didn't wish to waste much time either.

"As you already know, Amaya was born with an uncurable curse. Her entire body was filled with a certain Dark Mist that doesn't allow her to cultivate, forcing her to live like a mortal. However, in truth, Amaya wasn't the first person who was born with that curse.

In truth, that Dark Mist is not a curse but a physique.

A Physique that many descendants of the Skadi Family inherit. They call the inheritors Physique Holders.
