"What is going on? Why do you suddenly ask to co, Bella?" Evelyn asked while taking off her coat.
"What’s wrong? I can’t call you unless it’s sothing important? Date before mate. At this rate, you would rather et Nathan than ." Bella looked down as if she had been wronged.
"Alright, alright. You are the best." Evelyn sighed in defeat.
"Hehehe." Bella just chuckled playfully. "Then again, there is indeed an important discussion."
"What is the matter?"
Bella raised one finger. She was saying it as if it was the most important thing in the world. "Do you know that Nathan just got another woman?"
Evelyn’s eyebrows twitched. "This sounds like we need to have a deep conversation..."
"I know, right? You just got together, but for so reason, he was trying to get a local specialty here. At first, I thought it was the emperor’s sister, but from the way he worded it, it was soone else."
"No. How can he get soone else before you?" Evelyn shook her head.
"That’s your problem?" Bella was speechless.
"I already told him you and I are one package."
"That’s one thing, but..." Bella rubbed her cheek while rolling her eyes. "...That’s not the problem right now. What I’m worried about is that this woman will tie him down to this place."
"I don’t think it will happen," answered Evelyn. Without a shred of doubt, she believed it wouldn’t happen. "Is that the problem? I don’t think that’s sothing important enough for you to call all the way here."
"Well..." Bella felt a bit troubled. She explained everything about Nathan’s power getting exposed.
Evelyn’s face turned solemn after hearing the trouble.
She looked down, contemplating. "First of all, his power has been exposed to the emperor. We originally thought the dynasty’s emperor was related to the enemy, but it didn’t seem to be the case.
"Even when we were attacked in the dynasty, Nathan didn’t summon anyone that didn’t look humanoid.
"However, his identity as soone from another continent had been exposed. The dynasty’s emperor only ntioned the bird, not the fact that he summoned beast familiars. So, this ant the Death Society could finally confirm their target.
"Then again, exposing this one fact to the Death Society is not a big deal. What actually matters are the other two people, correct?" Evelyn massaged her forehead while thinking about what would co next.
"Indeed." Bella nodded. "The first person is the emperor’s sister. Nathan has told about his own suspicion that this matter is actually related to the emperor. So, the emperor might find out about his ability.
"As you know, the fact that he can summon beasts makes him much more valuable. Even on our continent, a lot of people were trying to marry him simply to get his bloodline, hoping to have their descendants possess sothing similar.
"The emperor might be trying to do the sa thing. After all, Nathan’s combat prowess, talent, and age are just unprecedented. Selena and the others are weird as well, but because they are related to Nathan.
"The second person is the second prince’s faction. Knowing how the emperor would react, they would do anything they could to handle this problem.
"The biggest trouble is the connection to us. Both the second prince and the emperor know about our affiliation with Nathan.
"They will be targeting us next. That’s what I assu."
Evelyn couldn’t help but agree. "Indeed. Looking at the situation, targeting you is the easiest option.
"Besides, Nathan ntioned a woman’s helper. And the fact that he still brought that princess with him ant this helper had a similar strength to this princess.
"For the ti being, we don’t have to worry about him getting targeted or captured. Besides, with Nathan’s space elent, who could stop him from running away?
"Unless they used a special trick to trap him, he could go anywhere. Besides, with his mind, unless he entered the trap intentionally, no one could probably trick him that hard..."
"I know, right?" Bella chuckled. "So, we are now the problem. The easiest target will be us. But because we are done in the empire, we can probably move to the dynasty. What do you think?"
Evelyn thought for a mont. "Didn’t you make a project here? I an, Neyeid. He had been moving around the nobles, right? There is also his other project regarding the printing machine. Oh, if I’m not mistaken, there is also that abandoned city."
"I have talked to Neyeid about it." Bella raised three fingers. "First of all, moving around the nobles is enough. Nathan has given him an idea of how to spy better than lurking among the nobles. The beggar sect or sothing? I don’t fully understand how it works, but it looks like he is utilizing the beggars to spy on people.
"Regarding the blacksmith, we are done with the cloud-repelling devices, so we don’t have to make more. It’s the only reason the second prince’s faction moved against Nathan, as he predicted.
"As for the printing machine, it’s a secret project. Only core blacksmiths know about this. We can move those core blacksmiths. They should have no problem moving for a few months to a year to finish this project before returning.
"Last but not least, the abandoned city can be taken care of in another way. Right now, no one should know about the abandoned city. As long as there’s enough money to operate, Gregory should have no problem handling it personally."
Evelyn nodded in understanding. "So the reason you want here is to bring those blacksmiths to the dynasty?"
"Technically, we are only telling them to do this in a secret location, but we will move them to the dynasty. The only problem will be the place."
"I can take care of that problem." Evelyn waved her hand. "But how about the business here?"
"It should be fine. If we want to buy sothing here, we can use the beggar sect and smuggle them by using teleportation."
"Alright. Give one day. Tell the blacksmiths to say goodbye to their families. I will pick them up tomorrow."
Bella nodded. "Thanks."
"Save that thanks until we get an explanation from Nathan."
Bella smiled wryly, thinking that this ’conversation’ wouldn’t be small.
