Chapter 552 L Won't Comment On It Any Further

*Knock* *Knock* *Knock*

Hearing the knock, Amaya ordered.

"Enter."

A servant enters and bows respectfully.

"Lady Amaya, the Dynast has summoned you."

Hearing that, Amaya smiled and stood up, Keeve, who was sitting beside her stood up as well.

"Let's go then."

Amaya nodded.

The servant nodded back,

"Please, follow me."

Then, he started moving.

Amaya and Keeve were then taken into another room. As soon as Amaya walked into the room, her attention was grabbed by a man who wore clothes similar to Ellinger, the Dynast, however, the Aura he excluded was far more impressive when compared.

The man had slight wrinkles on his face and combined with that amiable smile, he looked like a friendly neighbor who always gave you sweets. Amaya, however, knew that the truth was far from it and this amiable-looking man was someone who could destroy an entire Kingdom with just him alone.

He was Alcimus Woods, an Emperor and the Protector of the Woods Dynasty.

Beside him sat Ellinger, although he still carried the same demeanor as before, his presence in the room was still overpowered by his grandfather.

Amaya glanced at Alcimus and bowed her head,

"Greetings, Lord Alcimus."

Alcimus raised an eyebrow in surprise and smiled,

"You know my name?"

"I have to be informed enough if I want to request Lord's presence, after all."

Amaya replied.

A satisfied smile appeared on Alcimus's face as he nodded his head.

"Good Good, it doesn't look like you are here to just waste my time, I am glad you aren't someone overstepping your boundaries."

Amaya understood the underlying threat in those words, however, she didn't react to it and stayed still.

"Have a seat, girl."

Alcimus ordered.

He didn't have to be respectful to Amaya, even though she came from another Kingdom to help them or is a King Stage Cultivator.

Amaya didn't mind and sat down. Keeve stood behind her.

"Are you going to keep that mask on?" Suddenly, Alcimus questioned.

Hearing that, Ellinger's expression changed a little, he wanted to see Lady Amaya's face as well, however,

"This is something I must do, Lord Alcimus. Please understand, this relates to our Kingdom's interests. I do not aim to disrespect you in the slightest."

Amaya spilled cold water on Ellinger's head.

Alcimus frowned.

This was clearly disrespectful, however, since Amaya had brought up Kingdom's interest, he couldn't force her either.

In the end, he just shook his head and nodded,

"I understand."

"Thank you for understanding, Lord Alcimus."

Alcimus nodded and then, his amiable expression disappeared and turned into a serious one,

"Alright, then girl. You know my time is limited, let's not wait any longer."

Amaya nodded and then, she started,

"If things continue to go like they are going, the Woods Army will never win against the Solid Earth Kingdom."

Hearing that, Alcimus frowned.

Amaya ignored that and continued,

"There is no way normal cultivators can win against an Emperor after all."

Alcimus's expression changed,

"What are you trying to say?" He questioned as he narrowed his eyes.

"I am saying that Lord Herms, the Protector of the Solid Earth Kingdom is directly participating in this war."

Amaya revealed and Alcimus and Ellinger's eyes widened in surprise.

"Do you the consequences of what you are saying?" Alcimus narrowed his eyes.

"I know it, Lord Alcimus."

Amaya nodded.

Her expression then turned even more solemn as she revealed,

"I know about the Peace Treaty and right now,

The Solid Earth Kingdom is breaking that Treaty."

"…do you have any proof supporting your statement?"

Alcimus questioned.

Suddenly, the ring on Amaya's finger shined and an Emblem appeared in her hand, seeing that Emblem, Alcimus widened his eyes in surprise as he glanced at Amaya.

"Lady Astaria was the one who confirmed this news herself.

She found this situation strange, her spies then reported to her that something was a miss.

Therefore, she personally infiltrated the Solid Earth Kingdom and noticed clear signs of Lord Herms's involvement in the Kingdom's affairs.

Not only that, the extra Generals in this War who are attacking your Army, they are King Stage Adventurers or Sect Masters that are recruited into the army by Lord Herms.

Here is a letter Lady Astaria wrote, confirming everything I have said is true."

Amaya passed the letter to Herms.

Herms quickly opened the envelope and started reading the content.

Amaya gave him a minute to go through everything and continued,

"Now it all boils down to whether you trust Lady Astaria's words or not. Our future cooperation will depend on your answer."

Herms continued to read the letter and started rereading it again, just to be sure that he didn't miss anything.

His expression continued to change as he read the content, and once he reread the letter for the second time, he took a deep breath and spoke,

"So you are telling me… that I have been holding myself back, allowing those annoying bugs to continue doing whatever they want to my Kingdom, allowing them to tarnish the reputation of my Kingdom, all of that just to insure that I don't break the Treaty while that annoying Bastard had already broken the Treaty?"

Alcimus was pissed.

He had been holding back for such a long time… all for nothing…

He allows those bastards to trample on his pride…

Alcimus wanted revenge.

He wanted to give them what they did to him hundr- no, a thousandfold.

Suddenly, a small smile appeared on Amaya's face as she momentarily glanced at Ellinger.

Ellinger frowned, however, before he could realize what she was thinking, Amaya continued,

"Actually, from what I know, your previous General, General Ember Windstar, reported that she is suspicious that an Emperor is involved, however, the Dynast didn't take it seriously and berated her instead.

Since she wasn't confident in going against an Emperor, the General had to quit."

Ellinger's face turned pale as his eyes widened in surprise.

"…what?"

Alcimus questioned.

"Actually, that was where Lady Astaria's spies started the investigation, of course, Lady Astaria didn't take General Ember's, who was known to be the most capable General in the World, opinion for granted and acted on it."

Alcimus narrowed her eyes as he glared at Ellinger.

Ellinger's face turned even paler.

Amaya just smiled,

"Of course, since it seems like your Kingdom's internal matter.

I won't comment on it any further,

Since it would be inappropriate."
