“General Armando?”

Ember narrowed her eyes and then, she questioned,

“Why would he give something so important to you?”

Seeing her reaction, Nux chuckled,

“Secret.”

He answered.

“…”

Ember continued to look at Nux without any change in her expression.

What she wanted was clear, however,

Nux didn’t give in.

“Trust me, I will not betray you.”

He just said these words.

Ember narrowed her eyes even further and then, she started thinking.

3 minutes later, she stopped looking at Nux and then, she started reading the paper Nux handed to her.

The more she read, the more solemn her expression got.

“Are all these other soldiers members of Sects or Adventurers groups as well?”

She questioned.

“Yes, this is the reason why they have so many strong cultivators in their army.

The troops they lost in War against us were nothing to them.

That is the reason why they were so carefree when they lost.

Compared to what they have, what they lost that day was nothing.”

“Following Laurence’s plan is suicide huh…”

Ember muttered with a wry smile on her face.

“Actually, even if you don’t follow Laurence’s plan, your defeat is inevitable.

As I said, their Emperor is moving.

Emperors are different from others, we can’t face them no matter how superior tactics we use.

What you need to do is ask for the Dynast’s help, tell them about this situation and retreat as soon as possible.”

Nux suggested and Ember nodded with a solemn look on her face.

“You are right, we can’t go against emperors,

I will send him another letter and seek his help.”

“Mhm, that would be the best.”

Nux nodded.

Ember looked at Nux and smiled,

“Nux, this is the third time you have saved my army from a devastating defeat and unnecessary sacrifices, no, actually, this time, you haven’t only saved my army, but you have also saved my own life.

I am grateful.”

Then, Ember continued,

“I owe you a big favour Nux, as a repayment, you can ask me whatever you want, and if it is something I can do, I will do it.”

Ember had a simple, upright nature.

She was like a foolish and honest warrior.

Owing favours to others or something like that is something she doesn’t like at all. She prefers to even out as soon as possible.

Now that she owes a big favour to Nux, she would do her level best to pay him back.

No matter what he asks, she would fulfil it.

However,

“Don’t worry about it.”

Nux replied with a small smile on his face.

“Huh?” Ember frowned.

“Nux, you have been with me for a while now. You should know that I am not someone who would forget about favours.

I need to pay you back.”

Ember’s expression was very serious right now.

Nux, however, just chuckled,

“I don’t think you are getting what I am saying, General Ember.”

“Huh?”

“I never said I am forgetting or nullifying this favour, what I am doing right now is stacking it.

Hehe~ I am sure that this isn’t the last time you will need my help. You will keep owning me in the future as well.”

Nux then stood up from his chair and walked towards Ember. With his face so close to hers that their noses brushed with each other, Nux continued in an extremely seductive voice.

My plan is to keep stacking these favours up until it becomes so heavy that once I ask you what I want,

You won’t reject me no matter what it is~

General Ember Windstar, I will only make my move when I am absolutely sure that you can’t escape from my trap.”

Ember looked at Nux’s golden eyes with a lost look on her face.

Soon, however, she came out of her reverie and smiled,

“You are making me nervous, little boy.

The more you ‘stack’ this favour, the more I would wonder,

What is it that you so desperately want that requires you to stack so many favours?

What would I lose if I give you what you want?

Questions like these scare me, little boy.”

Seeing that he wasn’t able to see her flustered expression, Nux backed off with a disappointed look on his face.

Then, he shook his head and muttered,

“Tsk Tsk, the fearsome General Ember Windstar, a prodigy who has affinities with two Elements is afraid of a 19-year-old boy’s request, heh, if others hear about it, their ears might fall off.”

A teasing smile appeared on Ember’s face as she turned towards Thyra,

“Heeeh? Don’t ‘others’ already know about it?”

“I am not ‘others’ you bitch, I am a lot closer to Nux than you will ever be.”

Thyra’s response was lightning quick.

“Hahaha~”

Ember chuckled and then, she stood up.

“Alright Nux, I will meet you soon.”

“I am looking forward to that.” Nux smiled.

Nux and Thyra then left the tent.

…

“Assistant General Thyra,”

In the middle of the night, a soldier appeared in front of Thyra’s tent and shouted.

“What is it?” After a while, Thyra walked out and questioned.

“I apologize for interrupting your sleep, Assistant General, however, the General seeks your presence, and it is urgent.”

The Soldier reported.

“Huh?”

Thyra frowned.

Unable to understand Ember’s action, however, since the soldier said that it was urgent, she didn’t think too much about it and nodded.

“Alright, give me a minute.”

Thyra then entered the tent and after a while, she returned with Nux following him.

“Take me there.”

She ordered, however, the soldier shook his head.

“Assistant General Thyra, General has specifically mentioned that you must come alone.”

Hearing those words, Nux and Thyra frowned.

Thyra then looked at Nux and the latter nodded.

‘If something happens, call me as soon as possible.’

‘Don’t worry.’

Thyra nodded toward the soldier and the two of them walked away.

‘Why does she wants to meet her alone?’

Nux wondered inwardly but then he shook his head and returned to the tent.

‘I am sure she won’t harm her.’

With that thought in his mind, Nux closed his eyes and slept.

“!!!”

However, soon, Nux’s eyes widened in surprise when a dagger’s icy cold blade touched his neck.
