"Let’s become terrorists."
The Vampire suggested.
"What...?"
Ember blinked in surprise, unable to understand what she was talking about.
"An Anti-Supreme Group."
Melia began.
"A group whose sole purpose is to eradicate the rule of the Supreme Worlds. A group that will show resistance to every single decision made by the Supreme Worlds. A group that will commit terror attacks to oppose them."
"...how is that going to help us?"
The Dragon questioned.
"The Supreme Worlds have ordered the Mercenary Worlds to do their bidding, correct? The Anti-Supreme Group will destroy some of the most renowned Mercenary Worlds to announce to the Universe that they now stand against the Supreme Worlds and that everyone who aligns themselves with the Supreme Worlds will meet their end by our hands.
And of course, during this announcement and showmanship, it wouldn’t be very surprising if a Mercenary World like Nexus is targeted and destroyed, now would it?"
The Vampire explained and in an instant, the other eyes present here shined.
This... could be done.
Destroying Nexus alone would directly pull all attention towards it, but destroying several other groups and introducing a new organization would definitely cause enough distraction. At the very least, the investigation would be delayed by a few days, giving them the chance to get rid of Vexarion.
"But would Vexarion accept the battle after everything that’s happening?"
Suddenly, Lyriana asked another question.
"Why would he not? The Supreme Worlds’ announcement doesn’t change anything, does it? It is completely unrelated to everything happening between Khaemorr and Aurendor. If anything, their active participation might urge Vexarion to step forward and prove his worth to the Supreme Worlds when they are watching."
Riona commented.
"I agree."
Thyra nodded as well. The cat then pointed at Sharnoth and—
"Even she didn’t seem particularly bothered by their announcement until she realized it was connected to us. Vexarion won’t be an exception, he must be too busy thinking about how he is going to reap the rewards after killing her.
Not to mention he has already given seven high-level relics in exchange for this. Didn’t he only have twelve relics in total?
Someone as greedy as him would never back down when he gave up more than half of his wealth for this."
She added, getting nods from the rest.
Yes, this indeed seemed like it was going to work. They simply needed to destroy enough Mercenary Worlds to cause confusion and terror.
Yes, the Supreme Worlds will take action against them, but that was bound to happen one day anyways. It doesn’t matter if it happens a little earlier than they had planned.
"Alright then,
It is decided."
Nux nodded as well.
He glanced at Sharnoth, who looked at him with a determined look on her face. He smiled and nodded at her, the Queen nodded back.
"If there is anything I can do, please, do not hesitate to say the word. I will do whatever you want me to, even if it means I have to give away my life for it."
"Giving your life away? Don’t you first want to get your revenge?"
Nux chuckled.
A complicated look appeared on her face when he said those words,
"...you have already done so much for me. I trust that if something happens to me, you will take my revenge in my place.
I just wish that if the situation comes down to it, you make his end as agony-filled as possible."
She declared, once again finding the will to follow through with her words and laying down her life for him.
"Woman, stop raising flags when they are not necessary."
"Flags...?"
Sharnoth frowned. She had no clue what he was talking about.
Nux just stared at her and sighed,
"I would very much prefer you to be alive for my own selfish reason,
So don’t you dare die on me, or I will do unthinkable things to your dead body."
"W-What...?"
The Queen stuttered, taken aback by those words. Even the wives stared at their husband with strange looks on their faces when they heard those words.
"Dead body huh...
That sounds fun~"
Only Edda was brave enough to truly accept this, and Nux, who saw their reaction, quickly calmed them down,
"It was a joke, women."
He even specifically looked at Edda and,
"Just a joke."
He repeated, making sure the woman didn’t get any ideas.
Yes, even he was scared of his Edda.
"Anyways,"
Nux shook his head and turned towards Sharnoth,
"Don’t die."
