865: Grace Sullivan.

Grace Sullivan.

If Nux liked a woman, she wouldn't stop him, heck, she would even help him pursue her if she wanted to, though he wouldn't need it since that shameless man seems to be an expert when it comes to chasing skirts.

Anyways, the point was, she would only be okay with it if Nux wants it, as for these crazy bitches,

Ain't no way!

Stay away!

Amaya glared at the woman in front of her, however, the woman seemed to be completely immune to Amaya's words.

Rather, the moment she heard Amaya's words, her expression brightened up even further.

"What!? You are Lord Nux's wife!? That is so cool!

What is it like to be his wife? How many Sisters do you have? I know about Lady Astaria, the Sword Girl, but what about other women? Are all of them his wives as well? Even the Great Sage one?

Are you really one big family? Why didn't you just name your clan Lord's Nux Harem instead?"

The woman shot a barrage of questions.

Amaya frowned, she look around and noticed that none of the people had noticed anything. She soon realized that for some reason, they couldn't hear their conversation.

Her eyes fell on the woman sitting at the counter again,

"You are good."

Suddenly, a smile appeared on Amaya's face as she complimented.

"Hmm? What do you mean?" The woman tilted her head in confusion.

"What is your name?" Amaya questioned.

"Ava Anderson." The woman replied.

Amaya's eyes then shined and she chuckled,

"I didn't think you would lie, Grace Sullivan.

And you did it so naturally as well.

As I thought, you are good." Amaya nodded to herself.

Her expression was completely different than what it was a few seconds ago.

While before, she looked like a hen who was trying to protect her child, now, she looked like a predator who wanted to take away the gem in front of her.

"A 'die hard' fan huh…" Amaya muttered as she scanned Grace again.

This woman.

To think she would act like this to get more information from her.

And to think she even gave some of that to her.

There weren't many people who successfully fooled Amaya before.

Not that revealing the fact that she was Nux's wife would do anything, and, she honestly wanted that fact to be known just like how people know about Astaria, but to think she was the one who gave it away.

This woman was good.

"Grace, work for me."

Suddenly, Amaya spoke up.

She needed another Kelton.

And this woman, she was definitely qualified for the job.

"Although I don't know how much you earn by working here, I will give you 30% more.

What do you say?"

Amaya questioned.

"How… how do you know my name?"

"Why do you think I was the one who came here to open an Information Hall rather than other members of the Clan?"

Amaya chuckled.

Of course, she didn't do much and only used [Eye of Discerning], but Grace didn't have to know that.

Grace's expression changed when she heard Amaya's words.

"Anyways, it is not about that, just give me an answer."

"I… I have a question…"

Grace spoke with an unsure look on her face.

"What is it?"

"Would… would I be able to see Lord Nux if… I join you…?"

"…" Amaya turned silent.

"…" Grace glanced at her with an expectant look on her face.

"I thought it was all an act to get more information out of me," Amaya commented.

"It was… b-but I still… would like to meet Lord Nux… if I have a chance…" Grace replied.

Amaya observed Grace for a while. She won't allow bitches to get close to Nux, he attracts a ton of them already, there was no need to bring more bitches near him, however,

Competent women were exceptions.

Grace was competent.

"Alright."

Amaya nodded.

"However, I demand absolute Loyalty."

Amaya spoke up.

Grace's expression brightened up.

"I assure you that I wouldn't disappoint you, Lady Amaya."

Amaya smiled.2

"Anyways, shall we do the main thing I am here for?"

"Yes of course!"

Grace nodded, she quickly wrote down all the information she needed and soon, a new Information Hall was set up.

Amaya then passed a certain badge to Grace.

"Come to ExceedoGenesis's Base tomorrow, show this badge to the one in charge and she will bring you to me.

We will decide the rest of the details about this then."

"As you say, Lady Amaya."

Grace nodded.

Amaya then turned around, however, just as she was about to walk away, she paused, and,

"Ah right,

The Information you cheated out of me."

"My mouth is shut, Lady Amaya." Grace nodded with an assured look on her face.

Amaya, however, just smiled.

"Spread it."

"Huh?"

"Amaya Leander,

Relation, Nux Leander's wife.

Spread this wherever you want."

"R-Right…"

Grace nodded.

This woman…

She was definitely strange…

Grace thought as she glanced at Amaya's back.

Her eyes then fell on the badge in her hand, then, she recalled the first time she saw Nux's face when he came to the Battle Arena and a smile appeared on her face.

She was one of those people who betted on Nux.

An Emperor vs a Sage.

The Odds were very clear.

Betting on the Emperor was foolish and rarely anyone did it. Even the money she betted was only because she wanted to show her support.

Who knew that it would be the best investment of her life?

Honestly, normally, she wouldn't have accepted Amaya's offer so readily.

There were many Information Halls that offered her the same, or even better conditions before, however, joining a particular Information Hall meant giving away her freedom, therefore, she rejected them all.

However, since the one who was offering this was someone close to Lord Nux, she had no choice but to accept it.

Giving away a chance to meet Nux?

She would be a fool to do it.

Grace chuckled inwardly as she thought about how she would brag about this to her friends tonight. The expression they would make when they realize she was going to meet the man they all idealize like crazy.

Fufufu~

She was looking forward to tomorrow.
