Lord Of Succubi:Transmigrated As A Dual Cultivator In Isekai Of Magic

Chapter 370 370 Acting

The thought that Mary Kay may have orchestrated this meeting for ulterior motives doesn't sit well with him so he has with threat in his tone "Does Mary Kay send you here, what does she want from me".

When Angel hears this, she feels shocked that Nexus is able to discern the truth within minutes of their conversations. Angel started to cry,as tears flowed from her eyes she spoke forcufully "I am sorry this was not my intention, but Mary Kay forced me to find you and tempt you to join the Kay family's camp," she sniffled and continue crying Nexus sensed a genuine desperation in her eyes. Her innocence seems to waver, revealing a struggle within.

"Why are you crying, Angel? And why would Mary Kay want me to join the Kay family's camp?" Nexus probes, suspicion lingering in his voice.

Angel sniffles, wiping away tears, "I didn't want to do this, but Mary Kay has some leverage over me. She threatened to expose my past, and I had no choice but to comply. I'm sorry, Nexus, but I had to follow her instructions."

Nexus, though skeptical, can't help but feel a tinge of sympathy for Angel. "What does Mary Kay have on you? Why is she so desperate for me to join the Kay family?"

Angel hesitates, struggling with her words. "My past is... complicated. Mary Kay knows something that could ruin me, and she's using it as a tool to control me. As for why she wants you in the Kay family's camp, she sees you as a key asset in her ongoing rivalry with the Russell family and Selina. You're a powerful alchemist with unique abilities, and she believes having you on her side would tip the scales in her favor."

Nexus, still processing the information, leans back in his chair. The complexities of the situation unfold before him. "So, Mary Kay is playing a dangerous game." he smiled and continued "I won't be manipulated, and I won't be a pawn in her schemes."

Angel, sincerity returning to her eyes, nods, "Nexus, I didn't want to involve you in this mess, but I had no choice. Mary Kay is relentless, and I'm trapped in her web. Please, understand."

"Angel, I appreciate your honesty, don't worry I won't let her use me as a pawn. But I need to know more about this leverage she has over you. If we're going to find a way out of this, transparency is crucial," Nexus asserts, his eyes reflecting a mix of curiosity and determination.

Angel hesitates, her inner turmoil evident, but understanding the necessity of Nexus's request, she begins to share the painful details of her past. She recounts a troubled history, marked by circumstances that pushed her into the arms of the Kay family.

As the narrative unfolds, Nexus listens intently, realizing the depth of Angel's predicament. Her vulnerability becomes palpable, and Nexus can't help but empathize with the challenges she faces. It's a stark reminder that everyone in Castra City has their own battles and the lines between right and wrong blur in the pursuit of survival.

Once Angel finishes her story, Nexus remains silent for a moment, absorbing the weight of her revelations. "Thank you for sharing, Angel. I understand the difficulties you've faced. Now, we need to find a way to counter Mary Kay's influence without compromising our principles. I won't join her camp, but I won't leave you alone in this either."

Angel, visibly relieved, manages a small smile. "Nexus, I didn't expect you to be so understanding. If there's a way to break free from Mary Kay's hold, I'm willing to cooperate. But we need to be cautious; she's not one to underestimate."

"Don't worry, I have got this under control" Nexus assured her, he stared at her with another kind of emotions compare with the threatening look he was giving her a while back.

Nexus, genuinely concerned for Angel's well-being, couldn't fathom how someone so seemingly vulnerable had become entangled in the ruthless schemes of Castra City's power players. He stood up from his seat and approached her, he sat next to her and concerns were written in his eyes, "I'm sorry that you've had to endure such difficulties, Angel. No one deserves to be manipulated like this," Nexus empathizes, his eyes reflecting sincerity.

Angel, wiping away a stray tear, looks at Nexus with a mixture of gratitude and surprise. "You're not like the others, Nexus. I thought everyone in this city was only interested in their own gains. You... you're different."

Nexus offers a reassuring smile. "I believe in fairness and justice. No one should be a pawn in someone else's game. Now, tell me, how can I help you? What is it that Mary Kay is looking for, Angel?"

Angel hesitates for a moment, her eyes flickering with a mix of emotions. "Mary Kay believes that with your skills and influence, she can secure a stronger position for the Kay family in Castra City. She sees you as a key figure in her plans for dominance."

Nexus processes this information, his mind racing with the implications. "And what about you, Angel? Do you genuinely want to meet me, or is this just a part of Mary Kay's manipulation?" he asked with a curious expression

Angel looks down, a hint of sadness in her eyes. "I won't deny that I was ordered to bring you to her, but meeting you in person, Nexus, it's... it's different. I've heard stories about you, about how you've changed the fate of the Russell family. You're like a hero to me."

Nexus was surprised and flattered by Angel's words, he couldn't help but smile. "A hero, huh? I'm just someone trying to make a difference in this city. But I appreciate your kind words, Angel."

Angel nods earnestly. "Yes, I admire how you have transformed the Russell family, how you've brought them back to their former glory. You're like a beacon of success in Castra City, and Mary Kay believes having you on her side will ensure the Kay family's ascendancy."

Nexus chuckles a hint of irony in his tone. "Well, I didn't set out to be anyone's hero. I just wanted to help my friends and family. But I guess success attracts attention, doesn't it?"

Angel smiles, finding comfort in Nexus's down-to-earth demeanor. "That's precisely why Mary Kay wants you. You represent success, influence, and the ability to navigate the complexities of this city. She believes you can elevate the Kay family's status."

As they continue their conversation, Nexus keeps getting excited which comes as a surprise to him but he can't deny the fact that being this close to such a great and otherworldly beauty will arise something in any complete man.

For some reason that distinctive scent in the room intensified as Nexus moved closer to Angel, He could almost feel the heat emanating from her as she leaned in and her hair swished across his face, her perfume filling his nose. She smelled floral and sweet, like a cactus growing in the desert.

Her skin is soft and smooth like honey, her hair is black and shiny. Her eyes are black, like tar pits.
