"h, it was nothing.
Don't act so surprised, mother-in-law."
Nux shrugged.
"What the hell are you talking about!? Do you even realize what you have done!? You have killed an Emperor! An Emperor! The strongest existence in the world!
You have disturbed the Balance of the world! Do you realize that!?"
"Oh c'mon, he wouldn't have died if he was the strongest, you know?"
Nux kept his nonchalant attitude.
He was definitely enjoying his mother-in-law's reaction.
"You… h-how did you do it? You are still just a King Stage Cultivator, how can you kill an Emperor on your own?" Riona questioned.
She still couldn't believe what had happened, however, seeing Amletus's headless body lying on the floor without any movents and his head that had now rolled to the Wall, she had no choice but to believe it.
Amletus, the Emperor, the Protector of the Skadi Kingdom was dead.
"Trust , I am not lying, he was weak."
Nux spoke, this ti, however, his expression was serious.
"Astaria is much, much stronger than him."
"…"
Riona didn't know what to say.
She had heard that Lady Astaria had started training Nux about a month ago, she knew it would be very beneficial to Nux, however, she never thought that Nux would beco strong enough to Kill an Emperor.
"To be honest, I feel like I could have defeated him without the sneak attack, however, in the end, he is still an Emperor, I couldn't take any chance."
Nux analyzed.
"Well, Astaria did say you would be victorious if you two fought," Amaya replied.
She usually referred to Astaria as a 'Lady', however, as she witnessed the fight between Nux and Astaria, she soon realized that 'Lady' Astaria would be her sister soon.
So using 'Lady' to call her was a bit… strange.
Therefore, she had to change the way she addressed her.
She should start preparing early after all.
"Anyways, with now Amletus dead, we have declared War against Herms and the Solid Earth Kingdom."
Amaya's expression turned serious.
"Now we have to make sure that Herms receives information as late as possible and for that…"
Amaya then turned towards Riona.
"Huh?" Riona frowned.
In the end, she was soone who had ruled over and managed the Skadi Kingdom, her mind was sharper than any normal person's. So even though she was shocked and still couldn't believe the situation, she understood what Amaya and Nux wanted.
"You want to et Eardwolf."
She spoke.
"As expected of mother." Amaya smiled.
Riona smiled back.
Being acknowledged by her daughter.
This was definitely a good feeling.
She completely forgot about how the strongest human in the Skadi Kingdom was killed and placed Amaya's head on her breasts.
"Of course, you thought I wouldn't even be able to guess that? Is that even possible? Or are you underestimating your mother?
Don't forget, you were the one who lost the bet.
Although you are smart, you still have a long way to go.
And for that, you would have to stay as close to as possible."
Riona smiled widely.
"I only lost because I didn't know much about that idiot. I only judged things based on what I had heard about him, you, on the other hand, knew him since you practically grew up with him. There was the difference in data, not intelligence."
Amaya replied with an annoyed look on her face.
Her mother really was annoying.
Hugging her like this, how annoying.
She was a grown-up now, she needed her personal space.
"You shouldn't have agreed to bet then." Riona's reply was simple.
"You forced to!"
Amaya shouted.
She really couldn't believe how shaless her mother was.
"I don't know what you are talking about~"
Riona smiled and tightened her hug around Amaya.
Amaya tried to resist and get out of her hold, however, she failed.
"There There." Riona then started patting her head.
"…"
Amaya didn't know what to say.
"Tsk, I can't believe you two are ignoring like that."
Nux, who was witnessing the mother and daughter sticking to each other comnted.
To be honest, it was now a common sight for him.
When he placed a Slave Seal on Riona, the first thing Amaya ordered her to do was to tell the truth.
Then, everything was revealed.
The woman called Riona Skadi, the woman who held most of the power in the Skadi Kingdom, the woman who dismissed all the traditions of the Kingdom and managed to gain influence and power using her wits,
In the end, that woman was nothing but a fool who was crazy for her daughter.
The mont Amaya was born, Riona changed.
She realized that ruling the Kingdom ant nothing.
She may not love her 'husband', but her daughter,
Now that was a completely different thing.
She adored her daughter.
All her actions thus far were for the sake of her data.
When this was revealed, Amaya felt guilty.
All this while when she was blaming her mother in her heart, her mother was thinking about different ways of staying together with her.
Amaya, wanting to change things, told Riona to contact her using the telepathic connection whenever she wanted, a decision she deeply regrated because Riona didn't miss a single mont and contacted her to talk about even the simplest matter.
Of course, Amaya may act and say how annoying her mother was or things like that, however, Nux and everyone else knew the truth.
In the end, the relationship between the mother and daughter improved and was now stronger than ever.
"Do you want to join in as well?"
Riona extended her arm towards Nux.
Amaya, however, quickly grabbed that arm and placed it back on her head again.
Anything but Nux.
She was willing to give her mother anything she wanted.
Anything, but Nux.
That, was sothing she cannot allow.
Not at all.
Seeing her reaction, Riona chuckled.
"Anyways, shall we visit father-in-law?"
Nux questioned with a small smile on his face.
The two won nodded and Nux muttered,
"I am eting many of my fathers-in-laws right now, it is as if soone is doing all this on purpose.
Hmmmmm."
The two won just shook their heads.
'Mother.'
Suddenly, Amaya called out using a connection to which Nux wasn't connected to.
She wanted to ask sothing.
