Lord Black Heart's face showed confusion before he suddenly realized, "Nicholas's little girl, it's actually you, why are you here?"
Nicholas smiled, "Lord Black Heart, is my standing here not explanation enough?"
"Damn it, you actually betrayed the Dark Council, do you know the consequences of betraying the Dark Council?" Lord Black Heart flew into a rage.
Nicholas, unconcerned, chuckled, "Why the pretense, my lord? It's not just me who's betrayed the Dark Council. Besides, simply because I refused to be a breeding tool, you would have me walk into the Steel Alliance's territory to die. Such a rotten council is not worthy of my loyalty."
Lord Black Heart fell silent; he realized that his opponent knew his situation, just as Nicholas had said—the Dark Council, after ten thousand years, had indeed decayed.
And since the other party hadn't completely exposed him, he certainly wasn't going to foolishly reveal anything himself.
