Regina had been trying to seduce Nathan, making him unable to take his eyes off her. She had checked the three won who Nathan claid to be his won.
They were indeed beautiful, but she believed she wasn’t losing to them. So, if she managed to gain his attention, she would start playing her tricks to get his heart. It didn’t matter whether she got the monopoly or not.
What the emperor wanted was to bind Nathan. In fact, it would have been better if she hadn’t had the monopoly. This ant the other won would stay with Nathan in the empire.
In other words, a single marriage could bring four talented people.
It was worth the price she had to pay.
However, it all changed when Nathan asked for information. He requested information that was irrelevant to the empire.
This ant she didn’t have to worry about Nathan harming the empire.
Besides, this might be an opportunity for her.
Regina raised one question. "Actually, I was about to go to one of those places. Due to the increasing number of aliens lately, I thought about visiting a place that might have so answers to the current situation."
"What kind of place is it?" Nathan asked.
’Got him.’ Regina slyly thought. That was right. This was the opportunity she had been thinking about.
Seduction might be a way to do it, but even though she had learned about being a lady, she was originally a commander and a fighter.
There was another thod for a fighter to bond with another fighter. And those were the life-and-death battles.
If they could bond through many life-and-death situations, their bond might be even stronger than the one from seduction.
With her character, there was no way Regina could pass this opportunity.
Regina smiled while raising one finger. "Endless Prison."
"Endless Prison?" Nathan tilted his head in confusion.
"Yes." Regina nodded with a solemn expression. "You may not know this place because you are from the dynasty. However, there was a place called Endless Prison in the past.
"The Endless Prison was a place where countless aliens gathered. You could say that the Empire captured aliens alive and gathered them in one place. It was a prison that couldn’t be destroyed from the inside, but unfortunately, it was attacked from the outside.
"However, the prison itself was still intact due to the Unbreakable Gate. But because of the chaos back then and the fact that the aliens had taken over the area outside the prison, not many could reach that place.
"Even if they could, they had no way of entering this prison."
Nathan frowned. "If we can’t enter this prison, then why bother?"
"There are two ways to enter the prison. The first one is to use a magical power. The second way is to use the key.
"The key has been lost because there was an envoy that got ambushed and lost the key. Maybe an alien had devoured him, including the key, or it might have been lost sowhere."
"So, the only way to open it is by using a magical power?"
"Yes." Regina nodded. "The Endless Prison was made by an amazing individual who was said to have the strongest familiar."
"The strongest familiar?"
"That familiar was known as Heimdall."
"!!!" Nathan didn’t show it on his face, but he was actually shocked. ’Heimdall? That Heimdall? The one guarding the Bifrost?
’Wait a minute. The Endless Prison... No, the gate leading to the Endless Prison... Is it built based on the Bifrost? It might be a miniature of Bifrost, which should be enough to prevent any intruders.
’If that’s the case, the magical power that it uses to enter... Is it related to the original Bifrost? No, wait, sothing is wrong.
’She said Heimdall was the strongest familiar that had been summoned on this continent. While I can acknowledge the fact that Heimdall is strong, I know he is not the strongest.
’Of course, he might be equal to if not a bit stronger than Lilith, but if this is the limit of what they call the strongest...
’I think it’s related to the summoning circle. Thanks to the primitive summoning circle, they are unable to summon a more powerful god.
’So, they think Heimdall is the strongest. I don’t think Heimdall is a true god like Xolotl. Even if he has to fight my familiars, I believe several of them can best him.
’If that’s the case, the key might be related to his sword or sothing. As for the magical power... Don’t tell , it’s divinity?
’This continent doesn’t have many familiars with divinity, so not many people can unlock that door, aning a miniature of Bifrost is enough to keep that place sealed forever.
’If that’s the case, no one should have explored this place yet. And because it imprisons aliens for hundreds of years, I can’t imagine the condition of that prison.
’Exploring this area might be interesting. Besides, if the aliens inside this prison have died, it ans I can gather all the cores that remain for free.
’Now that I think about it, the people on this continent are stronger than the ones on Gratzel. It won’t be weird to find several elite class aliens imprisoned here.
’However, the problem is that I might have to visit this place with this woman... She already ntioned that she planned to visit this place, so I couldn’t really just go there and demand the information.
’It might even cause misunderstanding or even more troubleso things if she knew I could open it easily when others couldn’t.’
Nathan had to choose between the two options. If he went with her, he would have to suppress his power, including his familiars. Only Anubis, Mae, and Xolotl could co out. In addition, his elents might be revealed as well.
On the other hand, if he didn’t go with her, all troubleso things would also happen.
"..." Nathan closed his eyes for a mont. He could probably bluff his way about his elents, so it might be better not to cause any misunderstanding.
Besides, he rembered his luck with won. This woman might be related to it. If he brought her, he might face so bigger trouble, but he might also find sothing more precious.
Nathan nodded his head. "I want to go there!"
