The next day arrives with the sun rising from the horizon, Nytri is in the hall sipping juice with the Assassin before her. On the table is a plate of snacks and stacks of documents, all evidence. The Shadow are sitting before Nytri staring at her, the second shadow is trembling and whispers to her superior. "Sir, we're to watch over her. Why are we sitting before her?"
The Shadow leader whispers back, "Because she knows." The second shadow didn't understand, the leader kept glancing at the Assassin standing behind Nytri. "How did she get such a person to serve her?"
Nytri puts her cup down, "These papers…..are a gift. Please go through." The shadow leader takes the first paper and reads it. It's the plot to have Nytri killed from 7 years ago. He takes the next and it's a plot to have the prince assassinated. He reads through all the papers with his second shadow and their faces change with each paper.
"H…..How is this possible?" The shadow leader looks at Nytri with shock. The papers even have dirt on the royal family and all the nobles and influential people. Despite serving as the Royal shadow, he's never got hold of such information before, even intel on their gods is here.
Nytri raises her hand at the Assassin, "My subject gathered them." The Assassin bows and Nytri continues speaking, "I knew people were bad but this crushes my perception on this country. People are tricked and forced to become slaves...I guess intend on doing that."
The shadow leader stares at Nytri, "What do you mean?"
Nytri takes a snack, "I want Harrington, spare his life."
The shadow leader glares at Nytri, "Do you know what you're asking?! He committed treason! He deserves death."
Nytri waves her hand, "I could care less about your rules and social construct. I want Harrington to be a slave and shovel shit around, he could also dispose trash to the landfill site. I want him to know it was me. This is my condition, if you can't do this….." She smiles at them, "Do you think you can leave her with these." Nytri points at the stack of evidence.
"What if I accept but he still dies?" The shadow leader asks.
Nytri grins, "Then you make me your enemy." The shadow leader shivers.
"Enemy?" The shadow leader speaks, "Isn't that a bit much? I know lord Harrington tried t-"
"You know nothing." Nytri speaks, "I could kill the scum whenever, wherever or however I wanted. I just want to see him fall from his high seat to a lowly slave, a shit shoveling slave. I merely gathered this to fulfil that purpose, I only showed you because I believe you'd benefit from this." She smiles, "At least, you can uproot the traitors in your ranks."
The shadow leader stares at Nytri and sighs, "Alright, I'll speak to my superiors and convince them to accept your condition."
"Good." Nytri speaks, she leans into the couch looking at the ceiling. "Oh right, I intend on taking the orphanage and some of the scum's employees." Then she gazes at him while looking at the ceiling, "This isn't a request."
"Alright," The shadow leader speaks, "But may I ask, how did you go from orphan to a princess?"
"I survived." Nytri speaks. The shadow leader gets up noticing Nytri isn't going to speak more about it and takes the papers with his number 2, they leave the mansion. The rush straight to the king and inform him of everything, the prince was with the prince so he read it all. Over the past few days, the shadow royals have been reporting to the prince. He developed an obsession over Nytri, wanting her.
The king looks at his son as he goes on and on about Nytri, how beautiful and smart she is. He even wanted to start negotiations with Azuria on a political marriage. The king shakes his head, "I gave my son a mission and he got an obsession! Why me? Why me?!" he's frustrated and starts uprooting the thorns in his kingdom.
It's noon at Nytri's mansion and she's on the couch reading a book, she reads about other nations and is interested by them. She looks at the Clockwork Assassin Automaton standing behind the couch, "Hey."
The Assassin bows, "My liege?"
"Excellent work," Nytri speaks and the Assassin looks pleased, "I've got another job for you. Go over the neighboring nations and gather everything you can about them, even their daily lives and upload it to the Nexusphere to Paxius. I'm sure he can use them for something."
"Yes, my liege." The Assassin speaks, "If I may ask, is there a time limit to this mission?"
"Hmmm, until Paxius' merchants get here." Nytri speaks, "Also, try and spread fame on Azuria and its history. Make it seem like it's one of those isolated countries that just sprung up like the stories." Circuits appear behind the Assassin, "I'll give you some helping hand with this."
The Assassins bow, "Consider it done my liege." And they all vanish.
Nytri sits up with her eyes wide open, "Since when did it take so much EP to summon a few constructs? Even the Forbidden Series take like 5% at most. But a few Clockwork Assassins and nearly 10% EP is gone!"
Nytri looks around her, "MAR VISION." Her vision changes and now she can literally see energy. She observes the flow of energy and notices a peculiarity, "This is strange, I missed it because I regenerate a lot of EP. But I've been losing so much energy it's astonishing. It looks like whenever I use EP outside my body it diffuses, it's like a balancing mechanism. I'll have to research more about this later, but for now. Lay back until the scum's life falls."
A screen appears Nytri and it's showing a video on martial arts by a Xeno, "Ohh, I knew Wanwansi (116) was excellent with martial arts but this is insane! I guess I'll take some lessons, maybe I can refine a complete Martial Arts skill."
Nytri walks to another room which is like a big gym but with sparing ground, a screen appears before Nytri and she watches the screen showing tutorials on martial arts. Wanwansi (116) is giving the lesson and explaining what martial arts is, Nytri follows his actions in training.
[AU: INFO
- Xeno Wanwansi (116) best martial artist in Nexusphere/Azuria/Earth and others. He even has a fingers punch attack that's as deadly as a bomb right in the face. Though he spared with his kin (Xenos and Azurians) he never lost, not even against Nytri or Ryu.
- And yes, Ryu, Alpha Titanosaurian knows martial arts. He learned it from Wanwansi's (116) videos.
