'So this is how it feels to become a Sage huh…'
Nawdren muttered inwardly, relishing this amazing feeling with a big smile on his face.
He could feel that endless power coursing through his entire body. He felt like he could absolutely destroy anyone right now.
Everything was going according to his plan. Now all he had to do was to take care of Riona, who had a Blood Contract with him. Anyone else would be fine, however, due to the contract, he couldn't go against Riona. Therefore, he needed these subordinates.
Riona was currently Cultivating, she would be vulnerable right now. All the other soldiers were either passed out or were cultivating, Nux and his wives were in the garden, the security is at all time low right now.
All Nawdren's subordinates had to do was sneak into Riona's room and kill her, once that happens, Nawdren would be free.
Then, all he needed to do was to Kill Nux while he is cultivating and then get rid of these Demons while he was at it.
Especially that Demon named Erotica who follows Nux like she was his tail.
Both Nux and Erotica were a threat to him.
If he gave them chance to cultivate and if even one of them broke through, all his plans would be ruined.
Therefore, he needed to take care of them.
Thinking about all this, Nawdren walked out of his room as well. His Subordinates should have taken care of Riona by now.
Now he needed to rush towards Nux.
However, before that, he needed to get rid of these subordinates of his.
Why?
These Subordinates had seen him bowing his head in front of Nux, anyone who has witnessed this scene,
They all needed to die.
His pride wouldn't allow him to live after knowing that people who have seen him bow his head in front of a mere child were alive.
Thinking about it, Nawdren moved towards Riona's room as well but just as he was about to enter the room,
He paused and narrowed his eyes.
'Why isn't the Blood Contract released yet?'
Nawdren wondered in his mind. He could still sense that he was bounded by the Blood Contract.
He then opened the door and what he saw made him widen his eyes in shock,
"You are finally here."
Nawdren, who was expecting to see Riona's dead body was welcomed by the scene of Riona comfortably sitting on a chair with one leg over the other. Behind her, stood 10 Expert Stage Soldiers, and on the ground, lay 4 of his 5 subordinates.
'Where is the last one?'
Nawdren wondered and soon, his eyes fell on the man standing behind the soldiers and his expression changed.
That man… he was his subordinate…
'He was a traitor…'
Nawdren finally realized.
His eyes then fell on the slight smile that appeared on Riona's face, and... standing in front of that beautiful but scary smile, Nawdren could see his dream being devoured by endless despair…
The ray of light that kept him alive all this while… was now finally diminishing,
And as if to confirm his defeat, Riona finally spoke up.
"Nawdren Besch, kneel."
Riona ordered.
It didn't matter whether he was a Sage or not, Nawdren's body moved on its own, and he… knelt.
Seeing this, Riona smiled and continued,
"So you finally became a Sage huh…
Having a Sage Stage Cultivator as my subordinate, this is definitely something I can brag about."
Riona muttered. Nawdren lowered his head and bit his lips.
"However,"
Then, Riona's expression changed,
"A Subordinate who was thinking of betraying me?
Now this is not something I could allow, is it?"
"You speak too much for a mere puppet."
Nawdren spat.
"Ohh?" Riona's expression changed.
This was the first time Nawdren had shown resistance after forming the Blood Control with her.
Was this the real him?
Riona wondered in her head.
However, right now, she didn't have the time to think about all that.
Suddenly, the ring on her finger shined and a collar made from a certain material appeared in her hand,
"As they say, when a subordinate does something wrong, it is the mistake of the Master, now as a responsible Master, I need to take responsibility.
It seems I was not strict enough huh." Riona sighed and then,
"Nawdren, crawl over here."
She ordered.
Nawdren's expression changed. He wanted to resist, however, his body was not under his control anymore, he started crawling towards Riona, each step tore away his pride, piece by piece.
"Stop."
Riona ordered, Nawdren stopped right in front of her legs.
Riona then moved and then, she placed the collar on Nawdren's neck.
"It definitely suits you."
Riona nodded.
Nawdren eyes were red in rage, however, he was helpless to do anything, the only thing he could do right now was to glare at Riona with absolute rage in his eyes, however, suddenly, his expression changed.
Seeing the change in his expression, Riona smiled playfully,
"It is finally taking effect huh?
Have you heard of Mineralstar Iron?"
Nawdren's expression changed,
"Yes, the Iron that breaks your connection with Mana. Of course, something like that, doesn't work on Emperors, so working on Sages is even more impossible.
However, this collar is not made from Mineralstar Iron, it is made from BlackStar Iron. A material that has the power to restrain even the Great Sages. You can't feel any Mana around you, now can you?
Well, unfortunately, your body is stronger than normal Cultivators, so you are still dangerous, so this collar alone is not enough, that is why, I will be restraining you as well."
As Riona said those words, the soldiers standing behind her walked forward and restrained Nawdren, who couldn't resist since his body was under Riona's control.
Once the soldiers were done restraining Nawdren, they stepped aside, Riona then glanced at Nawdren and her expression turned cold.
"Keep this in mind, once I breakthrough and become an Emperor,
I will come looking for you."
Saying those words, Riona stood up and ordered,
"Take him away."
