"You… You want me to change the date for the Trials…" Rune realized.
"That is correct."
"…"
Rune turned silent.
Changing the date of the Trials, it was not a simple task, using Tower requires lots of resources, not just resources, there were lots of preparations that needs to be done before the Trial or Tower is opened.
With Ancestral Order ordering them to always announce the opening of the Trials to the public and select a few top candidates outside of their own family, they needed to arrange a tournament for the interested candidates as well.
And of course, since it is something that only happens every 1000 years, the importance of this tournament was quite huge, some competitors simply go into closed-door cultivation and only come out when the tournament is about to start. They couldn't just prepone the tournament's date by 100 years that easily.
Rune started thinking about it, she thought about all the possibilities, carefully weighing the pros and cons, and in the end, she glanced at Nux and,
"Alright.
I will change the dates of the Trials as you wish, however, I will only do it if you actually succeed in making me the successor within a year.
If you are even a day late, then I won't change the dates and you would need to wait for 103 years to enter.
Do you accept?"
Rune offered.
Hearing her offer, Nux looked into Rune's eyes and,
"Lady Rune, you aren't just giving this offer just because you don't think that I wouldn't be able to make you the successor in a year right? I don't want to see a shocked face and then an excuse stating why you couldn't keep your end of the deal."
He spoke with a small smile on his face.
It was as if he was provoking Rune.
Rune narrowed her eyes, she glanced at Nux's confident eyes for a while, and then,
"I always keep my word.."
Saying those words, Rune took out a Bottle.
"Spirit Alcohol…"
Nux recognized what it was in an instant.
How could he nor?
Amaya had directly fed all the information about the Spirit Alcohol in his mind by telling him how important this thing was many many many times.
It was to the point where Nux had to kiss her in order to silence her.
Of course, after the kiss, Amaya completely forgets about the Alcohol since her mind gets clouded by many impure thoughts.
Thoughts Nux liked very much.
"As I promised, if you find out why I came to you, I will give it to you," Rune spoke.
"And as I said,
I always keep my word."
Rune spoke.
Nux chuckled as he looked at Rune.
Honestly, he admired Aragorn a little.
How in the world could one act like an impotent when they have a wife like her!? Like, how!? Just how much self-control one needed to accomplish that?
Even though Aragorn was a coward who was going on his wife's back, Nux still respected his self-control.
And, he was a little thankful.
'Aragorn, if I ever get my hands on you, I will not torture you, don't worry, I will definitely give you a swift death.'
Nux smiled inwardly as he continued to look at Rune, who seemed as calm as ever.
Was he having any impure thoughts?
Of course he was!
