True King's Ecstasy

"Oh! Calm down, your highness, you know what will happen if I touch you right? In the worst case, I might touch your sister or this pretty lover of yours," The woman said, as she saw Velian was trying to use a spell.

"..."

Velian didn't know whether what she said was true. He wasn't afraid of getting invaded by that black thing again because Luna confirmed that she can revisit it this time, but the same cannot be said for Delviny and Juno.

"Luna, is she bluffing or being real?" Belgian questioned, as he tried to use appraisal on it and failed.

[It might be true master, the only question is whether she can deliberately release that thing or it's something like a parasite, that totally invaded their bodies]

"We are not here to create conflict, let's just solve this peacefully, in the final of the tournament, and when we win, I want you to acknowledge our power, don't worry until then we won't kill anyone," She said and looked at her other teammates.

"I want you to experience the same powerlessness we felt, until then let's just not kill each other,"

"And I know you're searching for a way to deal with this unknown power inside this body, so here's the deal,"

"If your sister can defeat us, we will confess everything about how we got this power and what is the purpose of this power, but you shouldn't interfere during the duel,"

Velian knew it was an instant rejection from him, but suddenly Delviny came forward and answered them in his stead.

"Fine! I will beat you to a pulp, but before that, you should wish that I don't meet you in the next round,"

"Deal! Until then, I hope you won't try anything foolish,"

Their leader said and tried to leave, but the woman, who was next to her came dangerously close to Velian.

He kept looking at her with his cold eyes, but Juno and Delviny covered him.

"Brat! I will make you drunk on my body before this tournament finish, then you will see who this 'old hag' really is, you will be me for more pleasure," She said and followed their team, while Velian kept looking at them.

He regretted keeping them alive. He wanted to kill them so badly, but he didn't know what unknown thing they can do.

"Delvi, why did you say yes to their words? Do you know how dangerous it is? Besides, there is no guarantee that they will keep their promise," Velian questioned.

"I know, but if we can get information, it is worth a try, that's why I think we should keep them on leash without letting them go overboard,"

Her words don't convince Velian at all, but he would rather die than let Delviny fight them, so he had to come up with a plan to deal with this group without letting them harm anyone.

"Brother, I know what you're thinking, but trust me, I will win the fight, besides if they had power and will to harm us, they don't have to wait like this,"

"It looks like they want to prove something instead of just killing people or they are weak and just bluffing,"

Velian kept looking at her with a conflicted look, but when she said to believe her, Velian had no choice but to listen, but he wasn't going to let her risk anything.

'The blazing sun, you're going too far, even if I have to wipe out half of this kingdom, before this tournament finish, I will erase your existence'

He thought and left with Delviny and Juno to meet other competitors and greet them.

***

Meanwhile, in the assassin headquarters of the Kelleros Kingdom, there was a woman and a man tied to chairs tightly with their faces looking rather pale and in front of them stood the leader of this unit.

A violet-haired beauty, who had an enraged expression on her face.

"Who are you two working for? Why did you leave your duty? Answer me!" She said and kicked the chair next to them, which was sent flying causing the woman to wet herself in fear.

Naomi's fury burned like a blazing fire as she glared at the two underlings who had neglected their duty. The room was filled with a tense silence as the two subordinates were bound to chairs, their faces pale with fear.

"I trusted you both to protect Velian with your lives, and you failed me!" Naomi's voice boomed across the room, echoing off the walls.

"Indeed, he doesn't need any protection from feeble people like us but still, he could be injured by now because of your negligence!"

The two underlings exchanged nervous glances, clearly at a loss for words.

"We don't know what happened, Lady Naomi," one of them stammered. "We were with him one moment, and the next we were standing near the food trucks, we didn't go there."

Naomi's eyes narrowed in suspicion. "You expect me to believe that you two don't know how we caught you two eating food in the food truck in your duty time?" she spat.

"You were his guardians, and it was your responsibility to keep him safe! But you went ahead and gave hunger your priority,"

"We swear, Lady Naomi," the other underlying interjected.

"We did everything we could to protect him. We never left his side until today, but we don't know how we got there."

Naomi's anger only grew hotter at their feeble excuses.

"You will pay for your failure," she snarled, pacing back and forth in front of them.

"But first, you will tell me everything you know. Every detail about what happened and why you decided it was a good idea to eat instead of doing your duty and we need to do an investigational find whether you're spies from other nations."

The two underlings exchanged another worried glance before the first one spoke up again.

"We were patrolling the ground around the restroom when we heard a noise," he began.

"Last thing I remember is meeting a woman, who looked rather beautiful, but I don't know her face,"

They claimed, which confused Naomi even more because she knew what they were telling is true because this interrogation room had a special effect chanted to it.

Nobody was able to lie inside that room, and if they want to lie they had to be higher than rank S.
