The battle with the ant queen was the fiercest Nox had experienced since arriving in this world. While some might claim his fight with the white-haired boy was more intense, Nox didn't include that memory since he hadn't managed to land a single blow. It was disgraceful!
Therefore, Nox considered this his finest battle and felt proud of defeating a beast with superior stats and levels. His pride, however, quickly turned to confusion when he suddenly found himself in a grand throne room.
At the far end of the throne room, an empty golden throne sat atop an elevated platform, with a red carpet stretching all the way to Nox's feet.
With a wave of his hand, his fanged dagger materialized in his grasp. He eyed the throne with cautiousness, his mind spinning as he tried to think of a possible way to get out of here. He felt so exposed, as if he had been kidnapped and blindfolded.
