Chapter 1290 Go in, you will find Vulpiana inside.
"You are quite cautious, it is a good thing.
Your cloning ability is quite envious."
The voice spoke, realizing that it was only Nux's clone and not his real self. The more it spoke, the graver Nux's expression turned. Read latest chapters at nov(e)lbin.com Only
He felt like the owner of the voice could read him like an open book and he couldn't hide any secrets in front of it.
And as if the voice could sense this fear of his as well, it chuckled,
"You are quite bold for someone who panics so easily. What? Were you not expecting to get caught? Well, I do have to admit, the technique you use to hide your presence is quite strong. It erases your complete 'existence', even the Mana doesn't react to you. I doubt there are many who could actually sense your presence. You aren't exactly wrong for blindly trusting this technique of yours."
"..." Nux was speechless, the only thing he could do here was to stare into the dark space in silence.
His only source of relief was that it wasn't his real self that was stuck here, it was merely a clone. So even if he gets killed here, he could get all the information he could gather and stay alive. No matter what, it was still a win on his part.
Or... that was what he thought until the voice said its next words.
"You just learned this lesson, did you not?"
Nux frowned.
"Blindly trusting your techniques is foolish, no matter how strong or full of tricks you are, you will always find someone stronger, someone trickier. It is a vast world, there are many things that you still do not know.
Things that you cannot even begin to fathom."
The more the voice spoke, the deeper Nux's frown became.
Knowing that he couldn't understand its words, the voice continued,
"The ability to create clones, every Incubus can do it.
"A friend...?" The voice questioned and Nux nodded,
"That is correct. I told the Fox Hero Vulpiana that if she doesn't come to visit me soon, I will come visit her instead, I am merely keeping my promise."
"It is quite a rude way to meet your friend, don't you think? You could have asked for a formal meeting instead of crudely barging into our House."
"I apologize for that. It is just that the friendship the two of us had built is quite strange, we do not like to do things the normal way and have somewhat started barging into each other's personal space.
Just a few weeks ago, I caught Vulpiana trying to barge into my Clan and now... well, I was the one who got caught."
"You caught Vulpiana...?" The voice seemed surprised.
It was clear that Vulpiana hadn't reported the incident after she returned.
"It was more of a coincidence than catching her."
Nux however, was quick to react and covered for the Fox Hero.
"And how did that happen?" The voice questioned further and Nux continued his bullshit further as well.
"It was Lady Vyriana who caught her. She sensed her presence and told me she was there, I was the one who reacted later."
"Is that so..."
The voice seemed to be pondering something.
"Alright, since it was Vulpiana who made the mistake first, I will excuse you just for today. From the next time, if you wish to meet her, request an official meeting, is that clear?"
"I understand." Nux nodded.
Then suddenly, inside the pitch-black place, a door was formed, when the door was opened, the light coming from the other side blinded Nux momentarily as he heard the voice,
"Go in, you will find Vulpiana inside."
