Amletus glanced at Riona for a while and then, he questioned,
"What is it?"
"It is about the Solid Earth Kingdom."
Riona replied.
Hearing that, Amletus narrowed his eyes and spoke,
"I told you to ignore that, didn't I?"
"As someone who manages the entire Kingdom, I can't simply ignore something that might, no that is affecting my Kingdom."
Riona replied calmly.
"What are you talking about?" Amletus questioned as he narrowed his eyes.
"The Solid Earth Army is completely overpowering the Woods Dynasty."
"And?"
"The speed at which they achieved this is not something our army can do. That means, if we do not use our secret force, then their army strength is stronger than ours. Of course, we are not sure that the results won't be the same if we use all our forces.
After all, no one knows whether they have a secret force for themselves or not."
Riona reported.
"I don't understand, it is the fight between two other Kingdoms. How is it affecting us? Rather, since they are destroying each other forces, shouldn't it profit us instead?"
"It is about the ranking, after seeing their army strength, many believe that the Solid Earth Kingdom deserves the second rank and our Kingdom does not."
Riona replied.
"Heh, since when were you worried about things like ranking?"
Amletus chuckled.
"Since it is affecting our reputation negatively, I cannot help but worry. Who knows, the Solid Earth Kingdom might target us next and since I am unable to get any information on them, my worries are increasing."
"You are thinking too much. They won't attack us right after attacking another Kingdom. You should know that as well."
Amletus waved his hand and shrugged.
'Too unbothered…
It is as if he already knows something…'
Riona noted his attitude inwardly.
"Rather." Suddenly, Amletus glanced at Riona and his expression turned serious,
"Now that he is gone, let me ask you.
Did you manipulate him?"
"I do not understand what you mean." Riona's answer was quick.
"Let me change my question then,
Why did you kill 2 of our King Stage Cultivators?
No matter what kind of enmity was there between you two, killing them was too extreme."
Amletus spoke as a suffocating aura surrounded Riona.
Riona's expression changed, she could feel the air around her turning heavy.
She knew she couldn't make a mistake here, therefore, with a slightly panicked expression, she replied,
"What I said was the truth, Raguel, the First Prince contacted me, I thought it was a good opportunity to get the Solid Earth Kingdom under us, however, I still wasn't sure so I gave the letter to him."
Amletus narrowed his eyes,
"I am not a fool like him, Riona.
Why would Raguel contact you, or the Skadi Kingdom in general when there were other options available."
"No other options were available."
"What do you mean?"
"The solid Earth Kingdom is completely sealed, entering the Kingdom was impossible, and Woods had their own problem to deal with.
We were the only options."
"…"
Amletus turned silent.
"You know how incompetent that man is, why did you give the letter to him, why did you not settle it yourself?"
"If I had actual power, I would have taken the risk, however, my position is very critical, I cannot afford to make a mistake.
I gave the letter to him because I wanted to cooperate, but that idiot kicked me out as soon as he received the letter, trying to take all the 'credit' for himself."
Riona replied.
Soon, she felt the pressure around her decrease.
A small smile appeared on her face before disappearing.
She continued to observe Amletus's reactions and then,
