Chapter 99: Madam of Cosmiwood (1/2)
Akash felt two invisible wires, circling Rukh Haseen's neck and waist. He moved his eyes to the assassin feigning sleep. Those wires were connected to the fingers of Riassuba Rosehip. This was his divine weapon made from the body of the Darkness Dragon King, Kaliya Subedar. Akash sent him a message.
[Wait, Riassuba.]
[My Liege, she knows too much. I believe killing her and escaping is currently the best course at our disposal. The escape route will be secured for thee. I'll quickly silence this beauty for all time and ye can flee.]
Riassuba replied.
[The mayor has likely already heard everything from the hidden mics. We won't be able to outrun a Star King tamer.]
After hearing that, Riassuba regained his composure before resting his fingers and the wires vanished. Neither the Madam of Cosmiwood nor the Smoking Spear felt or saw anything, only Akash was aware of what might've just occurred because he had feasted on the dragon's blood, thus having a relation with all ten divine weapons.
He sent some instructions to Haji, who quickly acted upon them.
”I think you are overthinking it, my lady. We simply spread a fake profile of him and yes, he's not 15-years-old but 25 instead.”
”Oh, you want me to believe that?”
She said, not taking the bait.
”Haha, it's up to you. His realm is also similarly higher at the 2nd Moon of the 3rd Star realm. You are of higher cultivation realm, just check for yourself.”
Haji answered with a peal of small laughter before Rukh inspected Akash and found that he was indeed at the 3rd Star realm. Then, she looked at Haji Tea with suspicion.
”We are from the cursed city if you forgot. His title among other details were purposively faked by me to get attention, but we miserably failed.”
*beep*
[My Liege, I have two things to report.]
Shehneel Shodo sent a message to King Akash Tagar at that time.
[What is it, Earl Shehneel?]
Akash asked.
[Two people have tried to investigate you. One is the mayor of this city and the other is a famous actress, Rukh Haseen.]
Akash was surprised, he had tried to maintain a low profile but still caught the attention of the mayor.
”Everything happened because of this meddling woman.”
Akash thought to himself.
[Rukh is in front of me now. What was the other news?]
Akash asked further.
[I have learnt a little about the person you asked to search about.]
The Vampire explained, surprising Akash.
[You found Erwin Cloude?]
[No, I just got a piece of information of where he is kept.]
Akash was happy, he wanted this genius ever since Baghi Tea spoke of him. Finally, some pleasant news for Akash.
[Alright, we will talk later. I'm busy now, you did good work, Earl Shehneel.]
Akash praised him,
[Thank you, My Liege. I will probe some more, take care of yourself.]
Rukh Haseen spoke after hearing all that Haji Tea had to say.
”Perhaps I did indeed overthink things. Regardless, Mr. Haji you should still think of my offer once more. Your priority should be fattening your city, I would give you 5 tamers of the 5th Star realm with rare beasts as well. No one from a 3rd tier city could compete with their beasts.”
After the failed blackmailing, Rukh threw out the offer once more.
