“Are you all willing to be Slaves?”
The assassins felt weird about the change in question but when they glanced at Thyra, who just stood there without saying anything, they did not think too much about it and answered.
“Yes”
Strange energy then entered their bodies and this time, their names finally appeared on the Slave column.
This put a smile on Nux’s face before he glanced at them and activated his [Eye Of Discerning]
While the Nux was examining every assassin, the assassin felt odd and doubted the energy that entered their bodies.
“Did you feel that as well?”
Three questioned Two.
“You did as well? I thought I was not feeling well today…”
“What was that energy?”
“No clue”
“Don’t worry about it, it’s normal”
Thyra assured.
The assassins then nodded, trusting Thyra.
However, the one who they were trusting, Thyra, felt bitter in her heart. She only assured them because she was ordered by Nux!
That energy is not nothing!
It is something that will change their life!
However, she then calmed a little and frowned, technically, these assassins should already be under him, so why is he avoiding talking about his power?
Nux’s reasoning was simple.
He just did not want to waste time on this worthless talk since he found something much more interesting than this.
He then glanced at Thyra and questioned.
“Aren’t you all spies sent by the Kingdom Of Skadi?”
“Technically, we are assassins, but you can say it like that”
Nux then pointed his finger at a female assassin and questioned.
“What about her? Is she any different than you?”
“Hm? Her? No, she’s ‘Eleven’, she’s an assassin just like us”
Thyra answered.
A frown then appeared on Nux’s face before he glanced at Eleven and activated his [Eye Of Discerning] again.

…
‘A spy? Why is her occupation different than these assassins?’
He then looked into Eleven’s eye and questioned.
“Are you different from these assassins in any way?”
Eleven frowned at this question, however, her mouth moved on its own and replied.
“Yes. I am a Spy”
Soon, Eleven’s eyes widened in horror but before she could think too much, Nux questioned again.
“A Spy? What kind of Spy? Who do you Spy on?”
Even Thyra had a frown on her face. As a leader of these assassins, she knew everything about them. However, this was the first time she was hearing something like this.
“A Spy sent by the Kingdom to keep watch on ‘One’. I report every action ‘One’ takes to the kingdom”
Thyra’s eyes widened in surprise, however, it wasn’t over yet.
“Why do you keep eye on One? Isn’t she working for the kingdom?”
“She is but the kingdom does not trust her.”
“An Orphan cannot be trusted with such matters”
Eleven’s eyes widened in terror.
She wasn’t going to say the last line, she just heard ‘Levi’s ordering in her head to say it and her body moved on her own.
“W-What…?”
Thyra’s eyes widened with shock…
The kingdom she was so loyal to does not trust her at all…
An Orphan cannot be trusted with such matters…
Was she really just that…? All the loyalty, devotion, and love she had shown for the kingdom just amounts to this much?
They actually send a Spy just to keep watch on her?
She was in dismay…
She couldn’t believe what she was hearing…
When he saw her reaction, a smile appeared on Nux’s face before it disappeared in an instant.
This woman was too loyal, although he used a Slave Seal, he still wanted to win her over so that she will give her all for his ambitions.
Therefore, he came up with a plan when he learned that ‘Eleven’ is a spy. He did not have to do anything. He just needed to add some fire.
He learned about Thyra being an Orphan when he asked about her background.
And then ordered Eleven to say that line so that it will leave a strong impact on Thyra; with this, he will be able to gain Thyra’s loyalty little by little.
Actually, even other assassins, who were orphans as well, had different expressions on their faces, however, Nux did not care about them.
Maybe he cared a little about Two and Three. But the rest of them were just slaves, them having thoughts about betraying him doesn’t matter.
He only needs the important ones.
He needs Thrya.
So he planned for it.
A perfect plan.
“W-What have you done to me!?”
While Nux was thinking and admiring how perfect his plan was, Eleven questioned in panic.
“Huh? What do you mean?”
“M-My body moved on its own! Why else do you think will I tell you that I am a spy even if I was one!?”
“Why else? Well, let me show you”
Nux then pointed at another assassin and questioned.
“You, tell me everything about yourself”
The assassin’s mouth moved on its own and he started telling his back story.
“My name is Afton Stonee, I came fro-”
“Yea, yea, that’s enough.”
Before he could even complete it, Nux waved his hand and he stopped.
However, the assassin’s eyes were wide in shock and horror.
“See that? You guys agreed to become my slaves, from now on, you will do whatever I tell you to. Got that?”
However, just as Nux replied, an Assassin fell to the ground and started screaming.
“AAAGGGHHhhhhh!!”
