1195 If anyone is getting seduced here, it is definitely not Nux.
"..."
Aurelian stared at the man sitting on her bed with a dumbfounded look on her face as she held the Storage Ring he threw at her.
"There are not Five Thousand 12 Star Artifacts in there because I was told that it was a ridiculous number and a way to calculate resources.
However, I do believe whatever is in there is enough to cover what you asked for.
It is exactly 1.5 times the resources required to open the Human Trial Tower."
Nux spoke up.
"..."
Aurelian, on the other hand, was still too shaken to say anything.
Honestly, she was only joking around when she said she needed 1.5 times the required resources. Just like Lyriana had predicted, she never believed that Nux would manage to get his hands on such a huge sum of resources.
'I should have asked for twice the required amount...'
Aurelian was truly regretting her decision.
"This is enough to open the Human Trial, right, Lady Aurelian?"
Seeing that she still wasn't answering, Nux questioned.
"Ah? Yes of course, this is more than enough." The Human Empress nodded.
"Then should we open the Human Trial?"
"Well, the process of opening the Trial is complicated, so... I would ask you to return after a week. I will prepare everything in the meantime."
"Ah, of course, I did hear that it was a complicated process and there are a lot of formalities you need to go through."
"That is correct." Aurelian nodded.
Nux nodded in understanding as he stood up.
"Then I will come in a week." He spoke, however, just as he was about to leave,
"You are leaving this Storage ring with me? Aren't you worried that I might cheat you out of your money?"
Nux momentarily paused, then, a playful smile appeared on his face, and,
"Lady Aurelian, there is a reason I chose to come to you instead of the other two Human Emperors, I doubt someone of your stature would ever fall as low as to cheat someone like me out of his money.
The elegance you radiate puts you far above things like these."
"You say that, however, your expressions say, 'I already have the Dragon Lord as my opponent, I wouldn't mind adding another one to the list.'
That air of confidence around you is attractive but quite intimidating as well."
Aurelian chuckled.
"Of come on, Lady Aurelian. I would never want you as my opponent.
As for the air of confidence, please only notice the attractive part, you do not need to be intimidated by me, that would break my heart." Nux replied and Aurelian chuckled out loud.
"How can I not be intimidated when you slaughtered an entire clan just a few hours ago, I sent some subordinates to get the report of the matter, and all of them were horrified by what they saw.
The Ashenhelm's building was flowing with blood, gore, corpses, and chopped limbs. They said that the scene of Blood was so strong that one could smell it even from a kilometer away.
It was quite a sight."
"The Ashenhelm tried to mess with my wives. That is one matter I do not hold back on. I get a little too possessive when it comes to my wives, you see."
