Supreme Harem God System

Chapter 904 Scary Calmness

?

"So, Lady Rune, let's jump straight to it,

How is your husband related to you being assassinated?"

Nux questioned directly.

"Isn't that something you were supposed to find out?"

Rune questioned back as she sat on the chair Nux pointed at.

"Well, that is correct. I have been roaming around your Feline Cat City for 5 days now, the first day, I learned how strong your public image is, the 2nd day, I learned how even people of the City Manor think you would become the successor, how you and your husband are a great team and have completely overpowered Felix and have two-thirds of the Clan supporting you.

Everything was going fine till this point, making it look like you had a clear advantage and were in a strong position,

But then on the third day, things changed,

I interrogated some of the clan leaders of the clans that supported you. Of course, my current limit is Great Sage, so I couldn't go after stronger Clans, however, I got what I wanted from those clan leaders as well.

'We fully support Lord Aragorn.'

This was what the 8 Clan Leaders who I interrogated said.

Not Lady Rune, they trusted Lord Aragorn.

It wasn't much of a problem since both you are him are a team, but,

Why did all 8 of them have the same response?

I tried asking,

What would you do if Lord Aragorn asks you to not support Lady Rune?

They said that wasn't possible, however, when I told them to answer hypothetically, they weren't sure.

A seed of doubt was planted in my mind,

That uncertainty was a huge problem.

They didn't say they would go against Lord Aragorn and support Lady Rune, they were unable to answer, and what does that mean?

They would just be like lost sheep, not knowing where to go, or what to do. They are pretty much small fries, so I know they would simply follow the stronger clans, and since I couldn't interrogate stronger clan leaders or their trusted subordinates,

I decided to change my target.

I decided to look into your husband. I won't go much into detail, he is someone you met around 2800 years ago when you were 316 years old, you two fell in love and all that, he was a perfect man, however,

He suffered from Erectile Dysfunction, which was the reason why you two couldn't have a child. However, that didn't lower your love for him.

You two still carried on like a power couple.

Quite praiseworthy, I was surprised and was in awe because of your true love, however, I still decided to keep an eye on Aragorn,

And lucky me~

I found something quite surprising."

Nux spoke.

"What was it?" Rune questioned.

"Well, before I say anything, promise me that you wouldn't attack me recklessly. I am not saying any nonsense and I have proof to back up my words, so even though my next words may enrage you, you have to know that I am doing all this for you and do not intend to hu-"

"You found out that he was cheating on me."

Before Nux could complete his sentence, Rune spoke up.

"Huh?" Nux's expression changed.

"A person, who is supposed to have Erectile Dysfunction, was cheating on me with some other woman," Rune spoke without much change in her expression.

"So you knew…"

Nux muttered.

"I trusted him a little too much, it was my mistake, I admit," Rune replied with a calm look on her face.

Nux, Allura, and Melia listened carefully.

"My nose is sensitive, even when compared to other Catkins, I often smelled other women's scent from his clothes, but never doubted him since he often joked about how other women tried to cling to him, I was fooled by his words and laughed together with him.

However, after I learned about the Assassination attempt, I wanted to talk to him about what I learned, however, that day, I smelled that scent again, maybe I was not in the right mind that day, or maybe it was just my lucky day, I decided to look into it.

He did not have any Erectile Dysfunction, he was perfectly fine from the very beginning. He has been fooling me the entire time." Rune spoke.

"I still don't get it.

How is him cheating on you and you coming to us to seek protection correlated?"

Allura questioned.

"It wasn't very hard to determine who wanted me dead.

The only person who would gain anything from that would be Felix.

What confused me was how was he planning to deal with the troubles that come after killing me.

Father might be calculative and ruthless, however, the assassination of his daughter, that would directly harm his pride, he would do everything in his power to find the culprit, even going as far as involving the Ancestral Order.

Felix shouldn't have the means to get away from that.

But he still decided to make a move.

Then that must mean…"

"He has a way to influence your father's decision and that way is Aragorn. That man, he was on your brother's side to begin with."

Melia spoke up.

Rune glanced at Melia and nodded her head.

"That is correct. I do not know when it happened or if he was with him from the very start, however, Aragorn is not on my side anymore."

"So that means most of the Clan that support you…" Nux spoke.

"They are most probably not with me as well. Aragorn must have discussed it with the High leveled Clans, and as you said before, the low-level clans would simply follow them like sheep.

Once I am dead, enraged Father would call for Manor's meeting, discussing how to deal with the situation. Felix would use the clans' power to influence father's decision, telling him not to use the 'Appeal' given by the Ancestral Order.

Once father sees that his daughter had lost all her support, even the clans who were on her side are now against her, his ruthless side would act up.

Even though he would know that his son is the culprit, he wouldn't take action.

For him, it would be nothing different than the Battle of Heirs, a Battle that I lost,

And he wouldn't pursue the matter for the sake of the loser."

Rune spoke.

She already understood most of her brother's plan and honestly, the calmness with which she talked about her own death…

Nux was taken aback.
